Escape theme Park

We got another tics for escape theme park from the chalet..

The park is bored, most of the ride there are quite old, rusted..definitely not work spending $ and time there..

More than 三字经

My mum lately invested in another Chinese Poem books..Jared managed to learn quite a no. of poems...

Happy Birthday Jared!

We took leave and wake up at 7am to check time and which cinema to go for the Bee Movie...So sad, vivo showing at 11.40am, coincide with Jared's meal time..so we have to search for another place...We shortlisted Balestier (so that my mum can take shorted time to reach if Jared were to grouch), Plaza Sing, Bugis (near to Hot air balloon)....Finally we recalled that we need to go Suntec for the samsonite shop, to see if shell point can be exchange with any luggage bag....hehe....and off we go to Suntec's Eng Wah to watch.

our little birthday boy only wake up at 8.45am and need to play a while

Arrived at Suntec about 9.40am, bought 10.15am tics...and rush to coffee bean for breakfast...Jared took quite a lot of egg (scrambled/steam), his fav sausage and tomato from salad. Got our Ice Milo & Pop corn (although we were not hungry, thought these would help him queiten down..hee), and entered the cinema at 10.15am sharp to find that we got the whole place OURs!...Nah...no stress liao hehe...

Breakfast at Coffeebean

Jared stayed quietly throught the 1st hour, open his big eyes watch through...while we occasionaly check him up and feed him pop corn...finally after 1hr...he said .."hui2 jia1" heh..OMG...daddy continued to distract him by narrating stuff happen in movie..heh! From then Jared occasionally start to ask question about movie...and finally everything ends...Yippie!...We survived! heh!

A quick snap in the theathre after the movie, but cannot see anything huh?


After that we saw dark sky....so sad..and continue to Samsonite...we bought nothing(too ex) and our Shell Point can only exchange for 100bucks while the stuff there min is 300+. Haiz

And continued to hv lunch at a Jap restaurant call Pie2 Fu3...which serveed paper steamboat... Then after lunch rain more more...so we go home and with a shock that the parking fee $9+...Jared slept half way journey..and continue to sleep till 4.30pm...

Cheeky Jared eating ramen

I went recky for small cake ..but couldnt find..but just cant get over it..so finally I decided to bake some muffn for him...heh. Bake vanilla muffin with not enuff vanilla, so add honey, no cake flour and cannot find constarch!...So you guess how bad was the muffin..heh...
Oopss..another bad thing happen...

I went to throw rubbish leaving Jared alone at the Gate...He saw me out of sight attempt to close the gate himself...and his finger got stucked...He cried so badly while me run so fast to see him..I promise not to leave him alone..any other thing can wait.

Then when change his shoe, his head bang to wall...now got 1 baluku..so poor thing...
To make up of all these, I offered him to bite my finger....Daddy say stupid...You know what? He bite non stop...my finger almost torn into 2..heh

That nite, he got crazy...I asked him to kiss my tummy, ears, lips..he did everything..hehe

Overall I felt this is a much enjoyable and fun birthday..no regrets of spending so much on the chalet ($270 Nov07 vs $60 Oct06 ).

I would try to make it an annual event..Too fun!..hehe

But if ask Jared if he still wanna go chalet...He will ans, No..Go Taiwan, Chinatown..instead..heh!

Day 2 Chalet &Last lesson of JG

Day 2 afternoon we went Wild Wild Wet with the complimentary tics with chalet booking..But no pics..Jared had a bad fall there and now his face still hv severe blue black..He was frighten with the water pouring from the big bucket when we just get into wild Wild wet. So the whole time there, everytime his face kena water, he will shout "Go home" hehe..

He don't like Wild Wild Wet..and so the whole time there hardly smile and cling to daddy like Koala Bear..hehe..Finally fell asleep...

In the evening, we went to JG for the last lesson.

Happy Birthday at Downtown East Chalet Day 1

This is Jared's 2nd trip to Downtown east Chalet. The last was to celebrate Wei Ming's bday. Since then, I yearned to go chalet for bbq...so finally book it for Jared's bday celebration.
We took half day PM leave to pick up Jared and the rest, checked in at about 3pm.

Look at Jared, how much he changed as compared to the Oct 06



See how happy was him at the recept area, heh!

Back to room to blow balloon, Jared very busy with the balloons..heh

Toilet train fail again?

Hmmm...today my mum announced she didnt manage to shhh Jared heh!

Another Milestone: Toilet Trained 23Mth 3wk

Since Sunday Jared could tell he want to pee...and My mum will bring a potty to him so that he can shoot in it heh...

Then mum will add water in the potty and bring Jared to water the plants.

Today so embarassing, we brought him along to Whampoa CC to pay for Talent Plus school fee. He Pee at the CC office...Heh!

First Lolli

It's Jared's first lolli. He rejected in the first place..but slowly accepted it.

He think a lot, and imagine a lot...

So his comment about this lolli....

Hen3 xiang4 xiang1 yen1 (Looks like cigarette)

Heh! Funny boy

Watching Movies

Both daddy & Jared loves movies with Violence, Noisy with lots of bing bangs...air plane crash, fightings...and all the bad stuff hehe.

Last nite, Jared managed to watch Tom Hank's Cast Away with us almost through out...till about 12am..but I surrender first lah, followed by him..hehe...1 thing about his bad habit...He like to tell the movie story while watching..

For eg Cast Away at the beginning there's a long chapter of how plane crash and how Tom Hanks survived with safety boat.

So Jared tell us:

Fei1 qi1 huai4 liao Bu4 ke2 yi3 fei1 liao

Boat Spoil bu4 ke2 yi3 zuo4 liao

and He dun care about the story line, watever he want to watch he will yelled...

Volleyball qu4 na2 li3 liao?

I wonder how we can survive our first movie? Current plan supposed to watch Bee Movie on his bday

Kek Sai?

This is 12kg Jared kek sai hehe..He finally managed to reach 12kg mark..but only during weekday..

I forgot to update something strange about Jared...

He like to check his weight at our weighing scale at home..hehe..When free he will zeroed the scale, and get up to check his weight. So it doesn't require us a lot of effort to know his weight leh..hehe

Reading

Favourite still Hungry Caterpillar

Can memorise at least 3 page now

Page 1: In the light of the moon, a little egg lay on a leaf

Page2: One Sunday morning, can nup can nup (can up) the warm sun, pop! Out of the egg came a hungry caterpillar

Page?: The next day was Sunday again, the caterpillar had a nice green leaf. After he wasn’t hungry anymore and he is not a hungry caterpillar any more..He is a big fat caterpillar. (This is our favourite, he can say such a long line without help, and he will only read this sentence when we flip to that page, although he couldn’t recognize the words..)

Random Updates

Finally Jared could sing…his favourite song is Ba Ba black sheep. He would sing it any time of the day except when being asked..Humph! This is the way he sings

Ba Ba black sheep
any any wool? (Have you any wool)
Yes sir Yes sir 3 bags full
1 for master 1 for my dame
1 for the little boy who lives down the lane

Other than that he also can sing twinkle, happy birthday(both in chinese and English), ABC. But all the songs are always out of tune..hehe..He doesn’t much musical sense…

His favourite song from JG…

Rainbow song
(I sing) Red and yellow, green and blue
Purple, Orange and ?
(Jared sing) I can sing the vovo (rainbow)
(Jared sing) I can sing the vovo (rainbow)

Chinese song
Zhao1 zhao1 shou3
Zhao1 zhao1 shou3
Lao3 shi1 ni2 hao3

Can do a bit of hand gesture of itsy bitsy spider, also started to do I love you

Pineapple Tarts

I've always like to eat Pineapple Tarts...so as KP.

Finally I've got the chance to make them at home...

My verdict: Outside pineapple tarts are definitely worth the $. Even though my pineapple jam are ready made from Phoon Huat...still I hv trouble tracing out from the mold. I gave up half way and ask KP to continue...while Jared watched Play School..hehe..( i repeat the DVD 2x for enuff time for us to finish the tarts..hehe)



Work in Progress in our Sharp Microwave oven



Yum yum pineapple tarts..Me made the ball tarts..cos cannot tahan the moulding process
And weird looking open type tarts, cos I made the pineapple ball too big hehe.


Next round I'm only gonna made ball type tarts since no moulding required and taste nicer due to enclosed jam pineapple more moist. Also plan to get cloves(?) to make it loook like tangerine
