Caden came down with fever this morning, which happen on our first day back at work after a week's break. He has complained about headache ( amazing he understands what's a headache) and tummy upset. Hopefully his temperature will go down soon and recover by Sat.

Usually Caden likes to hug our pillows to sleep. When Papa offered his pillow to Caden before bedtime, Caden said he'll do with the other spare pillows instead as he was afraid to pass on his germs to Papa if he uses that pillow. So thoughtful of him.. Really sweet boy.

Bouncing Castle @ Changi T3

We brought the boys to T3 2 years ago for the bouncing castle and this year we are back for the same play. This time round, Ethan has enjoyed it much better than before. He was very cautious at the start and climb up the 'steps' to the top of the castly very slowly but it only took him 2 rounds of the slide and he was literally running up to the top of the castle, just like how Caden has done it.

while waiting to be the next batch to be admitted into the castle



they were given 8 minutes of play





There were angry birds on display at level 2



And photo booths were also set up as part of the year-end T3 campaign





We took them for a quick afternoon tea and eggs treat so that the boys can go for a second round at the bouncing castle



the last game for the boys before we depart T3 - the slide!(even the father went to attempt the higher height at level 1)

A good ride

This evening, the boys get to have a good ride downstairs after Caden's wheels have been pumped with air at Uncle SK's house.

Ethan can't wait to go for his ride once we unlock his bicycle




Caden remains mysterious and I can only take a picture of his back view..

PaPa and Grandma's birthday

We had a simple affair at home this year because Grandma just got discharged from the hospital for the viral infection on her leg and we didn't want her wounds to be exposed to the germs outside if we were to dine out.

So we offered to host it at our place and had pot luck!

The children were usually very excited when it comes to candle blowing..





After this year, PaPa is going to reach 40 soooon!!

A Date with Mr Moon..

Caden saw the cartoon character Mr Moon last week when we doing the Christmas sightseeing on Friday evening and said he wanted to see its live show. So I went to google to check out their performance dates and venue and found out that they are scheduled to perform this week at the Changi City Mall.

As we have sorta of started our 1 week leave to accompany the children during this school holidays (kinda of late but least we managed to get this time off from work!), we decided to bring them to Changi City Mall to watch the live show. As the mall caters more to the working group around the Changi Business park vicinity, there wasn't too many families queuing up for the 1pm show. Hence, despite reaching the mall only near 1230pm, we managed to get the seats right at the centre, near the stage.

(we had Roti Prata for breakfast this morning, their long awaited treat)


Mr Moon with Ms Sunny, Gold Dust and Silver.


totally engrossed with the performance


We even have the opportunity to have a picture taken with Mr Moon and his friends


There's an outdoor park at level 2 which kept the boys occupied for quite a long time

Ethan turns 4 !

We held a simple birthday celebration at home for Ethan and Gong Gong on Sat for lunch and order Pizzas and drumlets from Pizza Hut coupled with salad and sushi with compliments from Ah Gou. The birthday cake was chosen by Ethan as PaPa had shown him the pictures online from Swensens and he decided on Mcqueen car.

This was the 3rd year that we had combined Ethan's birthday celebration together with his grandfather since their birthdays are not too far apart (Gong Gong's one falls on 25th Oct). Ethan enjoyed himself quite well and was most elated during the birthday song and cake cutting segment.

Ethan got his Mcqueen remote control car from his PaPa, a beyblade from his Ah gou and a pair of pants from Ah Pek (Uncle Colin). His grandparents gave him a big ang bao.. I got him something, but cannot seem to remember it now .. (sign of getting really old)

with their presents - Caden gets a beyblade from Ah Gou cos he has been nagging to Sam that he didnt receive any present from his aunty for this year's birthday..

The day before, the school celebrated Ethan's birthday and Ethan was happy giving out the goody bags we had prepared for him
