Chalet @ Downtown East

Daddy booked a chalet on the 19th - 20th Dec @ Downtown East. It was a fun, relaxing but also a tiring trip for me as I'm too busy exploring the places and the people.

Daddy and mummy even took me on the kiddy rides too!



Here I am after the chalet and on my way home....Zzzz....

Me and the mosquito net

It's a long weekend and all of us went over visit great-grandma in KL. As usual, great-grandma's house got alot of mosquitoes and with the mosquito patch, it didn't help much. So Aunty Jac lent mummy a mosquito net to protect me from being attacked by the buzzing creatures while I sleep.

Mummy couldn't help laughing at me as I looked like a dish to her.... here's the full picture.... >_< Mummy said is classic!

Healthy Baby Contest -- Earning my own diapers

Mummy's friend helped me to sign up for a healthy baby contest last week. Today, daddy and mummy happily dress me up as a sporty baby and off we go for the event held at CCK Community Center.

Getting ready for the contest



Being "tested" by the judges



After the "test", we went home for a nap before coming back to attend the prize giving ceremony. But when we returned to the event hall, I couldn't help but fall asleep again....



Prize giving ceremony started and all the babies in other category who won themselves a prize looked so cute! Finally, winner for my category to be announced and to daddy, mummy surprised, I've own!!! It's a consolation prize but we are happy :) Not to say, daddy and mummy super proud of me now because I can earn my own diapers and some vouchers! haaa.....



PS: Thanks to mummy's friend for signing me up! ;)

Breakfast at BK

Mummy signed me up for a trial class at Growing up Gifted located at Suntec. Before my class, we had a nice relaxing breakfast at BK. :) I was so hungry before the food came that I started drooling...hehe

Singing, singing and singing

Mummy has been inducing me with music and, no surprise, I love music now... This morning, after my milk time, mummy turn on the tv and it happen to show Singapore Idol. Since then, I have been sitting there relaxingly enjoying the music on the show. Mummy caught me trying to imitate the singers on the show. Instead of using the microphone singing, I am using my pacifier ;P

Here are some of the pics that mummy took...

Swimming lesson by Aqua Duck

Daddy and mummy brought me to the swimming pool for a swim and I freaked out. So mummy signed me up for a swimming lesson provided by Aqua Duck to train up my guts. Amazingly on that day, I did not cry or make a big fuss when daddy carried me into the pool. In fact, I was so happy and enjoying the swim that mummy can't stop clicking away on the camera...



Here's mummy's favourite photos of the day!

Weekend shopping and eating trip @ JB

Uncle Terry and yiyi has suggested for a weekend shopping and eating trip. Main purpose is to celebrate popo's birthday.

Both daddy and mummy put their hands up for this trip because not only can they celebrate popo's birthday by bringing her out to shop and eat, they can also grab this chance to stock up alot of my stuffs like diapers, formula, and home stuffs like grocery and etc.... Well, this is what you call "kiasu" parents... hee...


Our first stop is Tesco, one of the huge supermarket in JB. Here I am sitting in the shopping cart enjoying the scenery...



Time for our dinner! We head over to Jusco, which is next to Tesco. The ambience of the restaurant looks so nice and grand, especially the baby chair! Take a look!





This time I get to order what I want. Here's the proof!












While waiting for the food...everyone was chatting away while I'm reading my book...I'm so hardworking (but mummy is rolling her eyes)...



Ok...I'm sooooooo hungry!! Why isn't the food here yet??? Never mind...I can eat something else...



After the dinner, we head straight back to Singapore as it was getting late. As usual, I snooooooze all the way back home. This is a great weekend for me! Oh and not forgetting... Happy Birthday, PoPo!

Little terrier from mummy

Mummy went to meet up her friends to learn sewing and she made a little terrier for me :) with taggies on it too! I love red, so mummy chose the red fabric to make the terrier front and brown to make a contrasting back. There's also my initial on it too!



Here I am, enjoying my new toy! (^.^)

Wonder why...

Whenever daddy and mummy bring me out, people will come to us and ask or assume that I'm a girl!! Mummy will feel sad after hearing that comment and sometimes she will start wondering if I will become a sissy after that...hahaha

On the other hand, mummy feels proud of me due to the fair and smooth complexion (^_^) Anyhow, daddy and mummy really wonder and while putting on a bib for me they tried it out on my head instead to see if I really look like a girl... (>_<)





OK! Enough of being a "girl"...now I shall switch back to my "manly" pose!

Weekend getaway @ Sentosa

Today is a planned weekend getaway cum gathering with Auntie Jenny, Joanna, Jasmine and Jessica's family. Auntie Jessica offered to book the hotels for all of us. Thank you Auntie Jessie :)

When we reached the hotel reception, gong gong and popo brought me to the waiting area while daddy and mummy busy checking in to the hotel. It's definitely a new environment for me and I am busy exploring the new place. Look how happy I am! I just love being out and about...kekee...



Finally, daddy and mummy managed to get the rooms they wanted and it has a nice scenery as it is facing the sea. I just love sitting by the window and looking at the nice sea view... too bad can't feel the sea breeze though...oh well...



Next thing to explore is the hotel's bed. Wooh... the bed is not bad...nice and soft...Look at my expression and you can tell how good it feels. Let me take a nap and later will go for aswim ;p



Oooh! The water is so cold that I don't dare to move. Just sit back and relax in my goosie float.



This trip is so fun! I can't wait for another getaway...hehe

My first solid food...yum yum :p

I haven't been drinking much milk lately so mummy couldn't wait any longer and fed me solid food today. It's soooo yummy! I couldn't wait to have my next solid meal and mummy also looking forward to feeding me again!

Spot the difference!

Mummy was doing some housekeeping on her photos when she noticed a pic of a baby who has the same smile as I have. So mummy took the camera and took a pic of me. Lo and behold! The pic taken happened to have the same pose and smile as the pic that she found :)

The only difference is one is botak and the other is not...hee

The Little Gym

Mummy signed me up for a trial class at The Little Gym @ Marina Square. Daddy and mummy were so excited that we were the first to reach the place. Initially, mummy was the one doing the exercises with me but there were some stunts that requires some strengths so daddy took over. I'm like a dumbbell for daddy during the class. At the end of it...daddy and mummy wonder if the gym is for baby or for the adults... :p

Loving and spoiling

I'm a baby, no doubt about that, and as day by day I'm growing up, my demands have becoming more and more. Grandma and mummy always say that I'm not easy to deal with because I demand alot of attention from them...hee...This has caused grandma and mummy so busy that mummy has been complaining she has no more "me" time anymore.

People around us have been telling grandma and mummy not to give in to me all the time as this can "spoil" me and my demanding behavior will become more and more aggressive. But some people says that my demand should be met so that I won't be such a grouchy baby. This leads to confusion to mummy. Should she "listen" to the first or the latter advice? Should she "discipline" me now or continue "spoiling" me? Will I become a "spoiled" child when I grow up?

Well...in order not to get further confused, Mummy went online and also check out some books on more information about baby's development and here is what she found:

From the book "Your Baby and Child"

The spector of a "spoiled child" hangs over many parents almost from the moment their first baby is born. The baby is fine and healthy, but if they are not careful they will "spoil him". What does that mean? "Spoiled rotten" makes children sound like pieces of beef, made disgusting by being carelessly left out of the refrigerator past their "use by" date, but children are not meat. Neither the definition of "spoiling" nor the preventive action to be taken is agreed upon, yet the concept causes endless misery -- and not only to the children.

Your charming baby will not become a selfish, demanding bratty 4-yr-old because he gets "too much" of any of that. There isn't any risk that your miserable, colicky baby will get spoiled by all the extra carrying and rocking he's getting. In order to become spoiled, a child has to see himself as an individual person, completely separate from everyone else. That's too sophisticated for babies and toddlers. Baby scarcely knows that there's a difference between his hand and yours. If he wants a finger to suck, the nearest one will do. Your toddler will start learning about your feelings when he is nearer to 2 than 1 year old. That's when he becomes intellectually capable of working out involved plans for power struggles like "If I cry and just keep crying she'll let me in the end".

What could a baby learn from this?
- "Don't bother to call me because I will not come until I am ready"
- "Don't tell me you are unhappy because I am not interested"
- The more you tell me what you need, the less likely I am to give in to you
- "Face it, kid, you are helpless"

In this situation everybody loses. The baby loses because his needs are not met, or are met only after so much delay that he loses his vital confidence that they will be met. After a few more such experiences of this policy, he will anticipate being left and become anxious, quicker to cry and fuss and slower to accept eventual comfort. Parents and caregiver lose because the less they meet the baby's needs, the more demanding he becomes.

Bringing up a baby is undeniably hard work; nothing can make it easy. But parents and caregivers who always meet a baby's demands as fully as they can and without unnecessary delay have less work, less drudgery and less stress.

Try to feel honored, rather than burdened, by your baby needing you so much and needing so much of you. He is probably the only person in the world who will ever love you 100% without criticism or reservation. You have everything to gain and nothing to lose.


Mummy told daddy about this...so in the end...I guess you know what's going to happen and change ;)

Tasty...

As usual, I'm being placed in my high chair while daddy and mummy having meals at the dining table. In order to keep me entertained and not disturbing them, they placed alot of toys on my "dining table". But... nothing can entertain me except my smelly pillow. :)

Botak head

My hair hasn't been growing out nicely and daddy decided to shave me bald so that my hair will regrow in a nice manner...here's how I look. Botak!

It's meal time!

Oooh....it's time!! I can sit up now and today daddy unwrap my pressie and took out the brand new high chair for me to sit in so that I can join daddy and mummy during meal times :) Look how happy I am with my new high chair :P

Thanks to aunties and uncles for such a wonderful gift!!

Mother's Day at East Coast Park

Mummy thinks that last week's mother's day celebration was abit too rush, therefore she planned for another celebration this week at East Coast Park. This time mummy bought a mini bouquet and a cake for popo, thanking her for all the hard work she has contributed for taking care of me and mummy. :) The cake looks really delicious and I can't take my eyes off it... :P

It was a bright but not too sunny day *whew* otherwise it will be too hot to stay outdoor...Oh! It's a very windy day and I fell asleep having the sea breeze blowing at my face... so relaxing... hehe...



After resting and relaxing at the park...we proceed on to Suntec for dinner... and here's the feast that everyone enjoys before we head back home...
