Mygym Trial Class & Uncle Wei Ming's birthday party

Finally managed to arrange a trial class for Jared @ MyGym at Civic Center. It was an impromptu decision since we passed by there for the bank. Jared had lots of fun attending the class, the "toys" there are quite interesting. Of all Jared like most is when the teacher hang a jumping rope on the ceiling and let him learn to walk while holding to the rope. Hate most when teacher tried to flip him over, even cried out loud.

On Sunday we went to chalet @ Downtown East, Pasir Ris for Uncle Wei Ming's birthday. We had bbq dinner, Jared was like on holiday mood again, just like the time when we were at Genting. Sleep very little for the whole day yet don't get cranky and smile to everyone who approached him. hehe.

Long Weekend

Even though we didn't have special plan for the long weekend, it was still quite enjoyable. Well, we just been to zoo, bird park, east coast for the past few weeks..Its really a big headache what's next to visit.

So we decided to bring Jared for a swim. It has been a long time since the last swim, we were avoiding the 2 Lunar 7th mth and busy with preparations for the US trip and finally during this long weekend, we actually brought Jared to swim twice!! On sat and Tues. Daddy took leave to spend the whole day with us on Tue, Hari Raya.

On sat, Jared seems real tense in the water, no smile, no movement. But yesterday it was so much different. He started to enjoy the water, kick around, float and if we placed him sitting at the edge of the pool, he would jump down... first time we see him smile in the swimming pool ...enjoyed it so much that he actually zonk out even in the car. See Jared in action.



Oh yeah, finally I've managed to make the porridge which Jared likes a lot. Just simple one, add egg yolk to the porridge just before serve, then it will taste yummy..hehe..Jared loved it so much that after every mouth, he will make the "hmmm" sound heheh. Make me so happy. At least I don't need to chase him around and can sit there wait for Jared to come towards me in his walker when the next spoonful is ready! *So proud of myself* hehehe.

Jared is 11mth old!!!

At 11mth Jared could:
1) Use us as support to pull him self from sitting position to stand up position, and trying to be gung ho everytime by letting go of both hands!
He could stand unsupported for few sec nowadays.
2) Climb on us from our lap to shoulder when we sit on sofa to reach the window grills
3) Fav tv ads: Mobtv, Muchies, KFC, burst into laughter when watch these ads
4) Walk like crab along the wall
5) Just today we observed that many more new teeth are coming out and probaly at the same time? 2 each beside the 2 front teeth seems to be at the edges liao. His gums are red, and can see that he get irritated easily nowadays due to uncomfortness.

Hmmm, all these seems to be quite advance skill huh? Mummy is still waiting patiently for Jared to do some basic stuff, like wave bye bye, clap hands and self feeding biscuits etc!!!

A small celebration to celebrate the last mth of being a baby!!! Errr..why 2 candles? 2 yr old?? No!! 11mth! hehe

Bad fall & East Coast

Jared had a bad fall last Saturday. So bad that when we pick him up from the fall, all we saw was blood in his whole mouth. For sometime we thought his front teeth became shorter from the knock of the fall. Luckily, the blood stop quite quickly, and Jared also return to his cheerful self within mins after the fall.
His lips were slightly swollen for a while. We both were so heart pain to see his clothes stain with so much blood, and when he did the brrrrrr...his blood also brrrr out together... Luckily, everything went back to normal after 1-2hr. We even brought him to visit Pasar Malam at Causeway Pt that evening haha.

I'm wondering whether its good that Jared could crawl, he's so prone to accident nowadays...I recalled last time when he could only flip 1 side, I wouldn't even need to worry whether he's placed nearby bed side etc. Now I would make sure he's with me everywhere i go. In fact I put him on his high chair when I need to be away for short while to prepare his breakfast.





Some pics of that morning's activity. We brought Jared to East Coast again!!! heehee. Even though we had been to ECP many many times, but that day was still the 1st time that we actually put him to stand on the water/sand. To our surprise he actually cried big time everytime his feet got into water.

After that, as usual, we went cyling. This time round Jared enjoyed it much much more. In fact even refused to come down, when daddy need a rest..hehe.

p/s: Jared has finally got his hair cut!! Look so refreshing & handsome..hehe.

A weekend stay Indoor

Haze was really bad on last Sat. So we decided to stay at home in the afternoon. We finally get to go out only in the evening to Vivo City, the new largest shopping mall in town!. Most of the shops are not open yet, but we'll definitely go there again to check out the views facing Sentosa. After that, we went to Ikea to get another high chair for Sembawang. I'm so tired of chasing Jared to feed him his lunch/dinner. Funny thing is he never really like to crawl, but to escape from eating, he could crawl real fast hehe.
Jared on his fav pram-trolley at Ikea!



Jared's latest toy-a walker cum rider from playskool. Again, Jared don't really appreciate this little car. Make mummy real headache!

Jurong Bird Park 30 Sept 2006

We brought Jared to Jurong Bird Park on saturday cos I've a complemetary tics from col. Uncle Weiming & ah yi followed along too. From the experience of the previous zoo trip, I knew that I hv to dress Jared lightly. So here comes Jared in a yellow sleeveless top+bottom. hehe..Look like his sleeping clothes hor? hehe. Similarly, Jared still not very excited about the birds. But we did hv fun there especially at the Lorry loft, where daddy bought food to feed the birds, Jared get to see the birds in close distance. One of them even stop by Jared's head ..and end up he cried for a while. hehehe

The tour ended with lunch for daddy&mummy at Bongo Burgers.
