You can't run now!
Is it really cold?
Mummy decided to let Ryan try out a hat meant for winter...just look at the mischievous look on the rascal's face!
And of course, you would have noticed that he still has his all-time indispensable choo-choot in his mouth! Hai! What's mummy to do????
Feeding time
It's time to buy a waterproof bib for the little fella as mealtime can actually be very messy! Haha!

Getting ready for our trip!
Okay...I can do this on my own...
Tada! See mum, what did I tell you??
Oopss...and then again...who turned off the lights??
I just look so suave in my sweater, don't you think?

If you noticed, Ryan's still very reliant on his choo-choot!!! Sigh..what's mummy to do?
Mama's birthday
That's ah-ma, gong gong and the entire entourage of grandchildren =)

SPICY!!!
It was a futile attempt once more to wean the rascal off his choo-choot! Ah-ma soaked Ryan's pacifier in chilli padi once more and the result was burning, red lips and lots of crying in addition to screaming!!!
The poor little fellow was tearing like crazy and mummy had to quickly try to soothe him by giving him ice cubes! It was also a form of distraction actually...he had so much fun playing with the cool ice! Of course, he also got easily irritated by the fact that the ice cubes melted pretty quickly and he wasn't able to pick them up so easily when they fell to the ground.
Just look at how red his lips are....my poor little rascal!
"Mmmm...this is cool!!!"
Sigh, I guess I'll have to find another way to wean him off then....
Suggestions, anyone???
Sunday again...

Daddy's parents are busy again...
I'm guessing his grandparents are tired out by the little one by now! Hahaha!
Dinner with mummy's friends
Mummy met up with her girl friends this evening for dinner and the little one got to join in as well...
Auntie Gerardine, Huimin and pretty jie jie Nat decided to dine at Din Tai Fung Paragon and Ryan got to have a variety of our food for his supper...well, he already had his dinner at home at around 4plus so yup, this should be considered supper! Haha!
It was really good that jie jie Nat was around as Ryan seemed to be entertained by her and even auntie Gerardine felt that it was good that both of them had each other for company!
Dinner was a little disruptive, all thanks to Ryan, but we coped fine... I think I have auntie Huimin (aka my maid) to thank for helping me out during dinner! Hehehe! She's going to be a fantastic mum, I tell you!
Anyway, it was pretty cute seeing Ryan so attached to his jie jie so quickly at the dinner table...
Why I say attached??
Well, jie jie Nat wanted to go to the toilet during dinner and so on her way out, the little one couldn't bear for her to leave and stretched out his hand and started calling 'Jie Jie!' pretty loudly! Auntie Huimin and I were obviously amused by his actions!
Well, I'm glad that he enjoyed jie jie's company last night!
Auntie Meiling only joined us later and we headed to the NYDC outside the Heeren for some dessert..mmmm...mummy had some brownie freeze thingy was *slurp* super sinful!!!
Yup! Mummy needs to exercise! Sigh...but I wonder if I'll ever be disciplined to even start!
My only form of exercise currently?
SHOPPING!!! Haha! The most enjoyable but most expensive of course!!
I'm pretty sure daddy dreads hearing this word since mummy's really GOOD at her only form of exercise! Hahahahahaha!
Anyway, take a look at the pics I took of the 2 children at the dinner table...
Yup! I'm pretty sure the both of them had a good time last night!

Mummy's mistake!
Ryan's 19 mths today and mummy just got to tell you something funny which happened last night while he was sleeping...
Mummy woke up in the middle of the night to find Ryan missing from the mattress!!! Hhmmm...where did the rascal go? Hahaha! Apparently, Ryan had rolled off the mattress onto a thinner mattress and seemed pretty comfortable lying on his tummy! Mummy wasn't about to lift him off the bed to move him back onto the mattress in case he awoke and started wailing! So I simply left him as he was and went back to sleep...
Mummy's sleep was obviously pretty shortlived as the little one awoke next to me and wanted his milk feed...sigh! When will he EVER stop needing his 'middle of night' feed??
Ok, what mistake did mummy commit?? Well, in my 8 years of good driving record, I have never EVER had any accident, etc... but today, mummy stupidly scratched the side of the car whilst reversing into a carpark lot at IMM!!! It was a darn SCARY experience as I was seriously at a loss of what to do as the door came into contact with the stupid pillar!!! My heart almost skipped a beat and I thought that was the end!!! Daddy's bound to skin me alive!! Oh dear!
Anyway, I dropped the bombshell on daddy in the evening via skype and he was a little upset but he eventually said 'never mind' and told me to be more careful in future... Whew! I thought he was going to scream and blame me! Thank you hoo-b for not nagging and blaming me! You're the best!!!
Let's check out the damage... not very clear though...
Such a whiny rascal but then...
It's a Wednesday and mummy's on mc today because of the throbbing headache I've been experiencing on and off for the past few days! Somehow I believe that it might have been migraine because I only feel much better after taking Synflex (med for migraine) as compared to the normal paracetamol!
Anyway, I think Ryan woke up pretty early this morning (maybe ard 6 plus or so?) and walked out of the room on his own to look for his beloved grandparents...mummy, of course, continued to sleep since she was on mc...
According to ah-ma, she told me that gong gong couldn't sleep properly as he kept getting up to check on the rascal in the middle of the night to ensure that he wasn't out of the room and wandering around the house, especially the kitchen! Well, mummy didn't keep the door closed as I didn't switch on the air-con! Poor gong gong! Mummy will resolve to close the door from today onwards then!
Anyway, after breakfast, the rascal fell asleep almost immediately! Who asked him to wake up so early in the morning right? Hehehe!
See the little piggy in his strange sleeping positions...
When he awoke, I played his 'Wheels on the bus' VCD for him and jie jie to watch whilst eating their lunch.
Just look at the boss on his chair...
Oh yeah, why the title 'whiny'? This little monster can seriously whine! And he now does it so automatically by squatting down and then throwing his tantrums if he doesn't get his way or the things he wanted! TERRIBLE I tell you!
He whined over every single thing and ah-ma sometimes would just scold him or brush him off because he can be pretty irritating and loud actually! Sigh...mummy's hoping and praying that Ryan grows out of this whiny mood SOON because she doesn't want to be embarrassed by him whenever they go out!
Anyway, mummy brought Ryan to daddy's parents place for a while at night.
By the time we got there, it was already 8.40pm and it was meant to be a surprise for the grandparents. The both of them were, of course, delighted to see the rascal and decided to entertain them and not have their dinner first. Dinner was actually about to be consumed but I guess the rascal was more precious than dinner then! It had been more than a week since they saw Ryan so hhhmmm.... that should explain their actions?
Ryan had a good time playing with the balls and toys that daddy had in his room (before he moved out) whilst mummy was sitting on the sofa enjoying some 'me' time watching tv! Hahaha! Well, it was obviously time for the grandparents to entertain the rascal right? It would be defeating the purpose if I was the one who kept playing with him, wouldn't it??? Hhhhmmmm??
About 9plus, I told Ryan that I was going home and that he should leave as well but to no avail...he continued playing until I got my in-laws to come out of the room and switch off the light as well in order to indicate that it's time to leave.
Ryan was holding on to a toy as we were about to leave so I told him to return to his grandma. She, of course, said he could bring it home but I declined. Ryan heard me telling him to put it down and he AMAZINGLY, did as was told!! He left it on the tv console and I was EXTREMELY PLEASED with his action!!! I mean, I was expecting his usual whines but NO!!! I hurriedly carried him up and praised him for his good behaviour and as we left the gate, he could bid them farewell as well as blow them kisses!
Hhmm...I'm really proud of my son tonight! He can be such a terror but when he's so sensible, he's REALLY such a DARLING!!!

Animal Kiddy Ride
It's a Monday and mummy doesn't have to go to school today! Yahoo! It's off in lieu for us so I decided to bring ah-ma to IMM for lunch...
Had a craving for BK so brought her there for her Mushroom Swiss burger which she seldom gets a chance to enjoy! Yummy!
Brought Ryan on this animal kiddy ride which he was looking longingly at while some other children were on it... Daddy always insisted that it's a waste of money so since he isn't around, mummy decided to let Ryan have a go... Hehehe!
Quite a fun ride considering that he actually managed to steer it himself...hehehe! Oh, we sat on a tiger (the only one which was available then) Would have liked to sit on the giraffe but it was taken...sigh
Seems like mummy is the only one looking at the cam!
I seriously believe that Ryan was concentrating on his steering! Ahahaha!
Oh take a look at the two cousins... di di was simply stoning whilst the gor gor was trying to get his attention! Hehe!!
Daddy's away...
Yup...daddy left for Shanghai this morning and will only be back on the 27th! That's exactly TWO weeks! Sigh...mummy's Ryan's slave alone now...
But then again...there always his ever so doting ah-ma and gong gong!
Mummy 'dumped' Ryan with them and went for her facial in the morning and then in the evening, gong gong wanted to head to Suntec for some shopping so I drove us all there.
Slurp...we had Gelare's waffles for supper and it was uuuhhhhhmmmmm....SUPERB! Would have been much better if it was a Tue since it would have been half price! Hahahaha....Cheapskate yeah?
Headed home around 9pm and the little one fell asleep in the car...mummy dropped ah-ma and gong gong at their home was going back home alone with Ryan.
Mummy was pretty glad that the boy had already fallen asleep (so that mummy could work on some exam scripts while he was sleeping)
Whew!

Barney in school???
It's a Thursday and it seems like a pretty good day because mummy doesn't have ANY classes today and tomorrow's marking day! Woohoo!
Anyway, mummy was clad in a purple top (similar to Barney) and when she got to school, it seemed like a few of her colleagues were also in the shade of purple! Hahaha....
One wacky friend decided that we ought to capture the Kodak moment and so we were idiotically posing for her hp cam after the national anthem was sung by the pathetic school population of 4 classes which were having their last paper today!
I could see one of the student councillors secretly laughing at our idiotic behaviour but.... seriously, we didn't care! We're human you know? Ahahahaha....
Take a look at the pic...
Ryan was behaving a little strangely this evening...
He insisted on getting gong gong out of his room by pulling his hand and bringing him into the kitchen! Gong-Gong kept asking him what he wanted because he wanted to concentrate on watching the movie on tv, Mars Attack...hahaha...
Anyway, being the pampering gong-gong he is, he obviously entertained the little bum!
Sigh...Rascal Ryan has gotten his way ONCE AGAIN...
Oh! Just trying to see if I can post the mickey cartoon which I have in my hp as a screensaver...Ryan loves it and never fails to eagerly point and go "Eeee...." as if saying "Look, mummy! It's Mickey!"
Peek-a-boo!
It's a Sunday again...usual routine...
In the evening, we were home and mummy decided to wash the new 'Kingsize' bedsheet which she blew $150 on a set for and as I was hanging it on the clothes dryer, our dear little rascal had a really good time playing pee-a-boo around it! Hahahaha...
It was such a funny sight I must say...
Just take a look at the following pics...
Oohh... is that a tunnel???
Hhhmmm.... here goes!
Ta da! I did it mummy!
Return of the JEDI...
