Last Day of 2008...

Today's the last day of the year 2008.... 
We stayed at home to rest & relax as we had been going out everyday for the last couple of days..... I needed to replenish my nap time, or so Mummy said... hehe..

Come tomorrow when I opened my eyes in the morning, it would be a brand new year 2009!!
Time really flies.... 
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! May 2009 bring you abundance, joy, love & health.... 

Esplanade & Merlion Park...

Tue, 30 Dec 08

We went out at around 3.30pm this afternoon.... Mummy wanted to go the Singapore Flyer area to walk about (Yes, we knew that it was not operating, but the website said the other outlets would be still open as usual, so we thought we can still go there to have a look... Anyway, Mummy & Daddy had no intention to take the flyer.... They think all of us would be bored out of our skull...haha)

In the end, guess what?? We waited almost an hour (we had great patience right?) for the shuttle bus only to see it come and go (the driver waved to Daddy saying no pick ups..) ??? GRrrr... what a total waste of our time...
Oh well, take it that we were just enjoying doing nothing... I had my fun kicking at the leaves & playing "reverse bungee" with Mummy....

In the end, we took the next shuttle bus going to Suntec and went to have dinner at Marina Square Foodloft....
As usual, Mummy got distracted along the way for photo taking..... hahaha..
A soft toy Christmas tree at Suntec, and a fountain at Marina Square....

After the dinner, Mummy felt like eating some dessert.... We went to Secret Recipe for cheesecake but after ordering and waiting awhile, Mummy's cheesecake & Daddy's tea never arrived....Instead, the waitress brought a bottle of water??!! We didn't even order it..... Mummy decided to just forget it and we went off..... At least I managed to enjoy the sofa seat and ate some of my snacks.... heh

We went to Andersen's Ice Cream where Mummy got to eat yummy chocolate cake instead....


Then we took a stroll to Esplanade and the Merlion Park.... I climbed up a long flight of stairs at the Esplanade bridge.... tiring.... *pant*
Outside Marina Square.... don't ask me what is this... I don't know... It sure looks like some sort of monster with tentacles though... don't you think so?? ;p

Having fun walking outside the Esplanade......

The scenic night view from the bridge....



Finally reached the Merlion Park......
We sat down on the steps to enjoy the view for awhile......

On the way back, I asked Daddy to carry already... hehe... I was so tired that I fell asleep on the bus.... Even when Daddy got off the bus, I was still dozing off in his arms..... Mummy was saying it was the first time ever.....hahaha...
Daddy placed me on my bumper mat when we reached home.... I was dozing and asking for my buddy Moo Moo Cow... According to Mummy & Daddy, it was so hilarious that they had a great time laughing... Mummy managed to snap a picture of me before I opened my eyes and got up....
ps: Daddy was the one who positioned me like a "大" (meaning big in Chinese)

Mummy then quickly bathed me, gave me my milk and put me to bed..... zzzzzzz......

Dinner at Cafe Cartel...

Mon, 29 Dec 08

Today, Daddy went out at around 1 plus to meet his friends in Plaza Singapura.... I heard they are going to catch a movie... hmmm... 
Mummy said we would go meet Daddy for dinner in the evening after I had my lunch & nap.... True enough, we left at around 6pm after Daddy called Mummy.... The bus was so crowded, as it was a working day and knock off time.... Luckily, Mummy managed to get a seat... Traffic was also quite heavy along Orchard Road and the journey took longer than normal....
I saw Uncle Joshua & Uncle Su Heng again... hehe... 
We then all went for dinner at Cafe Cartel.... I sat on the couch seat like the adults..... ;p
I had Mummy's fish fillet, Uncle Su Heng's fries (Thanks, Uncle Su Heng), Daddy's fries and also Mummy's potato wedges... yum yum...
Towards the end of the dinner, I even allowed Uncle Su Heng to carry me for awhile (If you know me, I don't usually allow others to carry me).. Mummy told Uncle Su Heng he can go buy toto or 4D already... Uncle Su Heng, if you win anything, must buy present for me ok?? hehe.. :)
Mummy forgot to bring the camera today, so no photos to show for this post..... hee

Preview at Little Neuro Tree....


Yesterday, Daddy & Mummy brought me to a preview session at Little Neuro Tree Bugis Centre (HQ)... After the session, they decided to sign me up for the once a week hourly class there.... I would be starting my first lesson with Mummy on 9 Jan 09.... :)
Hope I would enjoy it!
You can find out more about it here http://www.littleneurotree.com

Thanks to Auntie Jessica for recommending the centre to Mummy... Mummy would put you as referral so that you can enjoy the discounts....

Having a tea break at Starbucks at Shaw House after the preview....


We then walked to City Hall where Daddy & Mummy went shopping at Robinsons.... They bought bedsheets set and Daddy finally managed to buy his belts... The total damage was quite substantial.... hahaha...

So sweet of Daddy, right??

My First Encounter with sand....

Today, Daddy & Mummy brought me to Sentosa Palawan Beach for me to play with sand.... It is my first time, you know?

In the beginning, I was abit scared and cried.... After a while, encouraged by Daddy & Mummy, I got used to it and even walked quite near the sea part... Mummy brought along a little pail, shovel and a watering can for me to play with....

The sky was overcast for the whole morning and also until the time we went out at around 1 plus... However, when we arrived at the beach, the sun decided to come out... It was hot, hot, hot!! I had rosy cheeks now..... haha...

Mummy only managed to take 2 pictures of me before we ventured near the sea.....

Just arrived..... see the clear blue sky... no wonder both Mummy & I are sun burnt, Mummy more so than me...


Going back on the Sentosa Express...

Opening Christmas Presents.....


Here's a picture of our Christmas tree again... If you are observant enough, you would have realised that the presents underneath it are different from the other time.... hehehe...

Opening mine before I went to bed on Christmas Day..... :)
The books and water bottle are from Mummy & Daddy... Thank you, Mummy & Daddy!
The Baby Tasmanian Devil is from Uncle Paul (Daddy's colleague)... Thanks, Uncle Paul!

Merry Christmas to YOU :)

Wishing everyone a Blessed Christmas filled with LOVE, JOY & PEACE.....

We went to Orchard area today to soak in the Christmas atmosphere and squeeze with the crowd... No, that's not our intention actually, Mummy & Daddy hate crowds...haha..

They wanted to go the Robinsons sales to check out the swivel sweeper, and maybe pick up some other stuff as well, but there was no sale for it and the queue was super long, so they ended up with nothing.... heh...

We did take some photos though....
Check them out at a later date... ;p

Photos uploaded on 28 Dec 08:

Our Christmas Eve Dinner...

Day: Wednesday
Date: 24 Dec 08
Time: 9.00pm
Venue: Home Sweet Home

We had our Christmas Eve dinner, all proudly prepared by my dearest Daddy... :P
Daddy said it would be our tradition every year, unless we are holidaying abroad and not at home...

The main course is of course the roast turkey.... We also had Italian roast potatoes and brussel sprouts sauteed with garlic & butter.... There was also brownie for dessert, but as we were all too stuffed already, we didn't get around to eating the brownie...haha...

Just woke up from my 3 hour nap....


Our roast turkey with the giblet gravy & cranberry sauce..... Daddy forgot to take out the stuffing which was still in the oven then.... haha..


Waiting for my turkey.....


I love it!! If you look carefully, you can see bits & pieces on my hair even....haha..
