Daisy 21st Birthday Celebration

Super tired today as we went to attend Daisy’s 21st Birthday party at NUSS Suntec City Guild Hse last night (23/08/09). Though the party only started at 6.30pm but we were already at Suntec at around 2pm plus to roam around. Managed to ‘force’ DS to his dreamland and he slept for about an hour plus before we met 2nd Sis for coffee cum chit- chat session first before proceeding to the venue.

The theme for the party is Hat party so DS and I each wore a cap / hat and we were seated together with the birthday girl classmate from NUSS at Table 4. The party was great and DS gets to participate at the dancing segment. But as he is too young to understand the rules and regulation, he didn’t get to win any prizes but can see that he enjoys himself very much because he kept wanting to get on stage and perform his break dance.. Hahaha.. Everyone started to comment how good DS dancing was and even Daisy’s classmate asked me whether want to send him to any hip hop dance class *faints*

We left shortly after the cake cutting session, which was already closed to 11pm and reached home before 12midnight. Quickly showered DS and after settling everything, we all went to bed closed to 1am..So now I am typing this post with my mind half asleep (^o^) yawn

To my dearest cousin, Daisy: Thanks for inviting us to your party and we hope you had as much fun as we had last night. Watching your video last night brought back many fond memories that we used to share in the past…Over the years, you have grown and mature a lot. I wish all the best in whatever you do and stay young, funky forever!!

Cable Car & Sentosa

Since cable car is having 50% discount till 15 Aug for S’porean, we decided to bring DS for his first ride up on the cable car since he is always pointing at it whenever we saw it at HabourFront. Reached HabourFront at ard 4pm and paid $17.60 for 2 tickets since DS doesn’t need to pay. Our first destination is to Mount Faber which we let DS played at the koi pond and also roamed around the area to look at the scenery before we decided to queue again for the ride to Sentosa.

When we reached Sentosa, we wanted to go to the beach so that DS can played with the sand and the water but think DS too long never touched the sand liao..the moment his feet touched the sand, he immediately asked for towel to clean his feet *faints*. We decided then to proceed to the food court for dinner but after walking for quite a distance, we still couldn’t find the food court. Decided to take the train back to VivoCity instead as I was already tired from all the walking.

Reached VivoCity and went to Food Republic for dinner but food there is expensive. After dinner, we walked to the open theatre for the rock bank concert but DS was also very tired coz the moment I carried him, he doze off immediately. Decided to go to Vivo City to let DS have his nap while DH continued to watch the performance. After DS woke up an hour later, we went to HabourFront MacDonald’s for some food before calling end of the day.

Kukup Trip

During the National Day Holiday (09/08/09 – 10/08/09), we went to Kukup with DH family and friends (ard 30plus ppl). At first, I thought DS couldn’t stand the long bus ride as the last trip to Batam still leave a bad memory in me but luckily, this trip DS was still ok. We left Singapore ard 7.30pm plus and only reach Kukup during lunch time.

Had seafood for lunch before proceeding to the resort to rest. The resort is not very nicely furnished but at least still got recreation facilities such as Karaoke and Mahjong. DS gets to play with the kids (he just refused to nap) while I proceed with my Mahjong. Night time, we had BBQ food but poor DS couldn’t eat most of the food as it is all spicy. After dinner, while everyone was having fun playing firecrackers, I stayed in the room playing with DS as he was afraid of the loud sound. We finally managed to coax DS to bed at 1am plus.

DH and I woke up ard 7am plus to have breakfast after which DH went to roam ard the place with his sisters and PIL. DS woke up around 8am plus and after that DH brought him to the mangrove swamp for a walk. After they returned around 12pm plus, we checked out from the resort and went for seafood lunch again. Left Kukup around 2pm plus and only reach Singapore at 5pm plus. Think this trip will last me a few more years before I get to travel again.

Animal Farm & NDP Preview

18/07/09
After weeks of wanting to bring DS to the animal farm near Seletar, we finally went there. The farm was a bit ulu but we managed to find it eventually. The farm was small but DS was still very excited to see those animals (Horse, Goats, Goose, Duck, Rabbit etc). He even patted them and after seeing the dogs at the grooming center, we decided to leave the place as I was badly bitten by the mosquitoes. Just then, an uncle came up to us asking if we would want the tickets to NDP preview, as he couldn’t make it that day.

Since we have no agenda for the day, we accepted the tickets and rushed for to Marina Bay as we have to be seated by 5.45pm. We reached there on time and were lucky to be given the red seats, as the seats are located at the center of the stage. Once the parade started, DS was very excited, waiving his flag and beating the props provided. Could see that he was enjoying himself. But there was one segment on terrorism and that was when DS started to cling onto DH as there were gunshots and some fireworks. We managed to pacify him a bit before he wanted to sit down again to watch the parade again. But it was not too long before he cling onto DH again as now it was the gunfire that frighten him. Luckily, my packet of biscuit managed to do the trick and once again he was coaxed back to his seat. DS missed the firework performance too as the loud sound really terrified him and moreover, it was way past his naptime and he was very grouchy.

After the show, we went back to Suntec to have our dinner and headed straight home after that. Overall, I really enjoyed this year performance as this year theme was more to the musical show and watching it ‘live’ really makes it more special.

Trip to KKH

This trip actually happened last month but I thought I was forgotten to re-post, as my 1st entry was gone mysteriously.

20/06/09 (Sat)
DS felt feverish and my thermometer was spoilt so couldn’t get a reading for his temperature. Fed his some fever med but was again wasted as he vomited all out.

21/06/09 (Sun)
DS seems ok already. We thought heat monster have left so brought DS to E-Hub for the ferris wheel ride & Escape Theme Park for some fun (but we didn’t stay for too long as they don’t allow preggy women on all the rides). Went back to MIL place again for dinner.

22/06/09 (Mon)
DS complain of toothache and heat monster returns…We gave him the fever med but still DS refused no matter how we coax him to drink. No choice, let DS self-heal himself as we thought he was having his molar teeth.

23/06/09 (Tue)
Heat monster & toothache remains plus now DS started to have watery stools and he also complain of stomach pain. DH brought DS to the clinic downstair but doc confirm that DS was not having his molar but rather he had got an ulcer. There was no more fever so doc gave med for his diarrhoea and some cream for his ulcer. Back home, DS diarrhoea had gone from bad to worse esp during the night.

24/06/09 (Wed)
DH decided to bring DS to KKH A&E to see doctor, as we were worried that prolonged diarrhoea will be a serious. So rushed down to KKH at around 4am plus and we were lucky that the waiting time was not so long. Can see that there was some renovation done, as now the hospital is nicer. Doctor said that as long as we keep DS hydrated it is ok and there is no med to stop diarrhoea so we can only wait till he built up his immune system to this virus. But at least, DS was more co-operative during this visit to the doctor. Left the hospital by 5am plus. All in all, DS took about a week to recover from his dirrhoea and his tummy was flatten due to this… But it wouldn’t be long before his tummy budge out again..hahaha

DS @ 32mths

Ever since my pregnancy, we seldom bring DS out for outing, as I get tired easily. I think the last time we brought him out for some fun was during Father’s Day (22/06/09). We brought him to E-Hub for the Ferris Wheel ride and also to Escape Theme Park. But I hope to bring him out more often before I gave birth in November.

Now DS is more creative in his conversation..Just like two nights ago, when I called him “宝贝”, he actually answer back and said “No宝贝, call me Jayden Soh or Xiang Xiang” DH & I really laugh like anything over his answer (^o^) Also, whenever we asked him to sing “泥娃娃” he will purposely sing “ 你妈妈”. His wacky and mischievous behavior never fails to entertain us.

Oh, his Mandarin have improve a bit and so have his Hokkien but now his sentence will combined some English, Mandarin and even Hokkien *faints*. Also, now he is super duper attached to his daddy..If he never see me, he is still ok but the moment DH is out of his sight, he will start crying for him.. I just hope he will get over this clingy phrase soon as now we really can’t tahan his behavior.

Hmmm…finally DS is able to poo poo in his potty. Now the only time he is on diaper is when he is sleeping or when we were out for shopping trip. *Well done, son* Think we need to start training him to sleep without diapers soon *Gambatak*

Detailed Scan @ TMC

Went for my detailed scan yesterday (06/07/09) @ TMC. Baby is now 20 weeks. The wait was so long though I have already made my appointment. The scan confirmed that I would be having a gal through Dr. Adrian already told me beforehand the gender of the baby. After my scan, met a friend for lunch at Taka. We had yummy dim sum for lunch at Crystal Jade and I had a great time catching up with my friend, as we have not met for over a year. We parted our ways after lunch as she had other programmes while I juz went back to MIL.

Back home, DS was so sweet, kept touching my tummy and sayang his mei mei. Hope he will love his mei mei when the baby is born…
