Barney put me to sleep...

16th January 2008

It was 8.15pm and Ryan climbed onto the massage chair after gesturing to mummy that he wanted to watch Barney...

Yup, the little one knows and is pretty good at demanding for whatever he wants!

Mummy plays the vcd for him and within 10 minutes, the rascal had dozed off!!! Haha!

Just look at the rascal with his ah-bu (bolster) slumped in the massage chair comfortably...

Conrad, anyone?

23rd December 2007

We stayed over at Conrad hotel today and it was SUPERB!!! The room, pool, service, people, etc...

Mummy gives them 5 stars!!! Or should it have been 6?? Anyway, just know that it was a really memorable stay overnight at the executive suite which we were upgraded to! Hehe..

Ryan had a good time, of course! Just look at him amusing himself with the complimentary apples and teddy bear...

A fantastic stay overall!

You can't run now!

29th November 2007

Mummy went to town today and managed to find the backpack leash at Taka...was delighted when I realised that it wasn't as expensive as I had expected it to be.

Of course, I immediately bought Ryan's favourite animal, the cow and let him try it on the minute I got home...

Amazingly, he LOVES it! He even wanted me to put it on him even when I wanted to remove it and insisted that I bring him 'Gai Gai'! Hahaha...

Well, at least mummy can set her mind at ease knowing that it's a good buy and it's going to be fully utilised during our trip to HK! Hahaha!

Is it really cold?

26th November 2007

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

25th November 2007

Sunday again and here's Ryan feeding himself at Taka's nursery rm...

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!

13th November 2007

Yup! Ryan's trying out the winter wear in preparation for his first trip overseas!

The cap's really such a cutie even though it looks rather girlish for him (passed down from auntie Nicki, datz y)

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?

Masa Masa

7th November 2007

Ryan's found a new source of entertainment which daddy isn't exactly veryproud of actually...

Yup! The little fella's into 'masa masa'!

Haha! He would just open one of the kitchen drawers and remove all the paper plates and plastic cups n forks and spoons.. what next? He would pretend to be scooping stuff into his cup and make it seem as if there's something to be eaten from the empty plates and cups!

It's pretty funny watching the little one up to his nonsense...

If you noticed, Ryan's still very reliant on his choo-choot!!! Sigh..what's mummy to do?

Mama's birthday

4th November 2007

It's ah-ma's bd celebration today (actual day is 6th Nov) n the whole family went to Hotel rendezvous for its famous nasi padang...

Mummy loved the food (it's not often that mummy eats nasi padang fyi)

Some pics to share...

That's ah-ma, gong gong and the entire entourage of grandchildren =)

SPICY!!!

22nd October 2007

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!!!"

"Hey! Why can't I pick up the ice cube???"

Sigh, I guess I'll have to find another way to wean him off then....

Suggestions, anyone???

Sunday again...

21st October 2007

Sunday morning and we're off to church with ah-ma and gong gong.

Jiu Jiu and even Yi Yi attended the same mass after which the whole family headed to Ave 5 for breakfast.

Well, we were unaware that there was some Community Day going on there and there was a hype with reporters all over!

Why? Our PM Lee was there to grace the occasion! Yup! It was a pretty GRAND celebration with a sort of carnival going on at the cc as well.

Ian and Chrissy got to shake hands with the VIP and Ian seemed pretty pleased about it actually! Hahaha! Such a funny little fellow...went on his own to approach the PM and then he came back to our table and asked if he shook the right person's hand?? Hilarious I tell you!

Anyway, the kids had a fun time (though pretty short) at the carnival and there was even free popcorn! Ah-ma's all time favourite snack so she decided to queue up for it, insisting that she was getting it for Ian...hahaha!

Yup, our rascal got a taste of popcorn as well...just look at the glutton!

Oh, the poor little fellow was terrified of this inflated walking mascot thingy which was like HUGE...there were four of it going around and Ryan was simply frightened of those things! He would run towards me and expect me to carry him while he started to somewhat sob...

Morning over...I brought Ryan to watch his grandparents dance in the evening at Holland...some flea market thingy was being held and mummy's parents were going to line dance as part of entertainment I suppose...

Yup! That's Ryan looking at his grandparents from afar while they dance.

Gong Gong showing off his dance moves...

Ryan with his all time favourite... BALLOON!!!
