First Dip @ Pool

Home @ Hillview

Daddy and mummy brought you to the pool and this was the first time you got into the pool (no longer sitting by the poolside!). You were so eager to enter the pool. Once you entered the pool, you were smiling and giggling all the way (you were not afraid of the icy water). Your laughter is so contagious and mummy is really glad that you are such jovial boy :>

Brazilian Friends

One Fullerton

Jewel @ Mount Faber

Mummy's brazilian friends (Auntie Elaine and Uncle Rafael) were in Singapore for holiday and we brought you along to meet them. We started the day by meeting them in their hotel, went to One Fullerton for photo taking with Merlion and lunch at Palm Beach. After lunch, we went to Bugis to pray at the popular Buddhist template. Then we drove around before going to Mount Faber for afternoon tea (of cos coffee for mummy!). The whole day events were new experiences for you and you were so excited and enjoyed yourself. Mummy was also very happy and were looking forward to this day. Mummy met Auntie Elaine in Brazil during one of my business trips, we met again in Amsterdam and now in Singapore. The world is not that big after all!

Baby Can Swim

We brought you for swim at Hwa Xia, together with Etern GG. It is a indoor "tub"! Initially mummy was afraid that you may be too tall to enjoy swimming in the tub, but mummy was wrong. You were so eager to get into the tub even before the staff managed to put on neck float for you. The moment you entered the tub, you hold on to the float and started kicking and splashing water. You really enjoyed yourself. Those people standing outside the shop also enjoyed watching you. You spent about half an hour in the tub till you were exhausted. Mummy is now convinced that you are ready for the real pool!

Birthday Party

We attended Gillian's 6th birthday party today - a "princess party"! Gillian JJ dressed up as a princess - same costume as the princess in "princess island". Her dream of becoming a princess came true!

Nice Pictures

Uncle Joseph took so many nice pictures of you when we went for Dim Sum buffet at Novena Square to celebrate auntie AnnJee's birthday. You were very cooperative and enjoyed the attention showered by all the aunties and uncles. Daddy is contemplating whether to buy the same camera as Uncle Joseph after looking at these great pictures. Mummy thinks it has to do with photo taking skill more than the camera, so buying the camera will not help!!

Baby Show

We got out of the house early today and went to Telok Blangah CC for the baby show which we have registered you for. There were so many babies. They were all dressed up for the event and anxious parents were waiting patiently for their babies to be examined by the judges. You were put on the baby weighing machine and you almost exceeded the max scale of 12kg. You were 11.8 kg! Throughout the morning, you were well-behaved but got very tired with the long wait. You have fallen asleep by the time the winners were annouced. Though you are not one of the winners, you are always the "champion" of daddy and mummy :>

VTech 3-in-1 driver

We went to Mothercare at Harbourfront after the baby show with Ah Mah, Charmaine JJ, Chloe JJ, Uncle Leng Hong, Cuiyi Ah Yi and Sarah JJ. The store was quiet with few customers before our visit. Mummy is impressed with the store as toys on display can be "tested"! See, you were having fun with JJ pushing you around in the store. You like it so much that you refused to part with it. Daddy ended up buying it for you. Daddy fixed it up immediately when we reached home and you were already playing it in the evening. Let's hope your interest will last.

Shoes

Mummy has been searching for your shoes but was not able to find any which has soft sole and big enough for your feet. Cuiyi Ah Yi and Uncle Leng Hong found and bought you this pair of shoes. Surprisely, it is too big for you. As a result, Cuiyi Ah Yi, Uncle Leng Hong and mummy actually had an in-depth discussion over coffee what to do with the shoes - to change for smaller size, to change to another design...! We were so excited mainly because of the upcoming baby show which you will be participating! We were hoping that you can wear this new pair of shoes for the show :>

Pinic @ Botanic Garden

We went to Botanic Garden in the evening to join Cuiyi Ah Yi, Uncle Leng Hong and Sarah JJ for pinic. We were enjoying ourselves with chips, drinks, wine etc and not paying too much attention to the piano concert at the centre stage. Though you were not able to enjoy the food and drinks, you were excited with the surrounding and this new experience. Sarah JJ brought along her bubble machine and so many children gathered around to play with the bubble. Very soon, you will be able to run around with the JJ and GG or even roll on the grass.

Happy Children's Day

Aidan home @ Kerrisdale

We visited Aidan GG and Gillian JJ at home today. You were fascinated with the toys they have and enjoyed yourself since they were willing to share with you the toys. However, when mummy tried to place Aidan GG next to you for photo taking, you actually hit him and he cried out of fear. After several unsuccessful attempts to put you two together, you ended up being alone in the photo. You are a BIG bully, aren't you!

Sleeping Angel

Very often, you doze off in the car seat shortly after we hit the road. It is amazing how fast and how well you can sleep in the seat! But it is a blessing for daddy and mummy :>

Fun at the pool

Home @ Hillview

You were enjoying yourself when daddy and mummy brought you to the poolside. Then we decided to let you have a taste of the water though you were not properly attired to get into the pool!

Lesson Time

Home @ Hillview

You were so focused when mummy were showing you the flesh cards. Your attention span will usually last 4 rounds of about 20 cards. Mummy can only do this with you during weekends, though it should be done everyday. Nevertheless, hope you will gain in one way or another. Thanks to Cuiyi Ah Yi who lent us this set of cards.

High Chair II

Sushi Tei @ Holland V

Now you have your own seat whenever we eat out, it is much more enjoyable for you as well as daddy and mummy :>

Future Soccer Player?

Your potential to be a soccer player was discovered when you were only 5 months old! You managed to kick the ball whenever it was placed in front of you, amazing boy!

Send-off

You came to send mummy off for business trip (India) together with Daddy, Ah Mah, Charmaine JJ and Chloe JJ. Mummy couldn't bear to leave you behind...

National Day

We celebrated Auntie Jasprine's birthday at Holiday Inn Hotel. As her birthday coincides with SG National Day, we could catch a glimpse of fireworks from our seats. You enjoyed the company of all the aunties and uncles, especially when you were carried and toured around the cafe :>

3rd Vaccination

Mummy brought you for 3rd jab and general assessment today. You actually weigh 10.6kg at 5 1/2 months!

You did not cry or rather realise it when the doctor gave you the injection! You are such a good boy :>

High Chair

You were excited when mummy placed you in this high chair which Aidan kor kor has been using at Ah Mah's place. You must be enjoying having your feet dangling in the air and sitting upright without the support of anyone. This is the first step to having solid food when you are 6 months old (2 more weeks to go!). Mummy has also bought another high chair for our home @ hillview.

Daddy's Birthday

We celebrated daddy's birthday at a nearby restaurant today. It was a simple dinner (just the 3 of us) but your presence have made it so special. You are the dearest gift for daddy and mummy.

Nature Walk

Daddy and mummy brought you to Bukit Batok Nature Reserve for morning walk. You did not seem to enjoy it as you almost doze off on the way home. I think you prefer shopping centres, just like mummy!

Newfound Freedom

Ah Mah's flat @ Jurong

Ah Mah has started putting you in walker as carrying you around is taking its toll on her arms and back. You actually enjoy sitting in the walker, roaming around without being in the arms of any adults. You do enjoy the newfound freedom!

Happy Feet

You have learned to use your feet to reach out for things but rather lazy with your hands.

Home @ Hillview

Teething

Ah Mah discovered that your two lower front teeth appeared today. No wonder you are stuffing whatever you can get hold of into your month including 3 fingers at one go! You are ready for solid food which mummy believes you will enjoy it.. :>

Aidan's 1st Birthday

Function room @ Kerrisdale






We went for Aidan kor kor's 1st birthday party today. Usually you like crowd and enjoy the company of all jie jie and kor kor. But you were not as cheerful today cos you were waken up from afternoon nap. "No sleep no smile" - is your motto!!

Sunday Morning

Home @ Hillview, 13 Jul 08

Mummy loves to lie beside you doing nothing on lazy Sunday morning. How I wish everyday is Sunday!

Toys Museum

We went for lunch with Gong Gong and Puo Puo at Mint Cafe @ Toys Museum. You were fascinated with the cartoon show projected on the wall. Very soon, you will need a seat at the table and enjoy a meal. Daddy and mummy are looking forward to that. :>

Hand-Me-Down

Home @ Hillview, 12 Jul 08

This is one of many hand-me-down clothes from Aidan guo-guo. It fits you perfectly and you look so grown-up.
