Daddy and me.. Day 3

Today is the last of three days that Daddy will spend with me. Tomorrow Mummy will take over and spend the next 2 days with me.

Daddy was very exciting this morning as he told me to hurry up with my breakfast so that we could go get some food and head over to Botanic Gardens. We went to Shop and Save at Simpang Bedok and bought a loaf of bread to feed the fishes, 5 bottles of Yakult in case I am thirsty and some biscuits in case I am hungry. Daddy also brought along a mat for our little picnic if we are up to it. It was very crowded at the Botanic Gardens when we got there at about 10am. The sheltered car park was actually full and Daddy feared there could be some events there. Fortunately it was just the morning crowd and not really any events.








We took out the loaf of bread and started feeding the fish. There were many different types of fish in there but the Japanese Kois were the biggest. There were also lots of turtles and eventually even the pigeons came for the bread buffet. I had lots of fun feeding the animals and I asked Daddy to bring me back here again.








After feeding the animals, we decided to have our little picnic and Daddy took out his army poncho and we had our Yakult and biscuits. I got a little bored after a while and asked to go home. Daddy readily agreed cos I think he was feeling uncomfortable from the heat. As we walked passed the entrance, Daddy decided that maybe we should just have lunch at Cafe Verde before heading home. I had the kids combo which included spaghetti, chicken nuggets and fries. I didn't finish my food cos maybe I was feeling a little tired. Daddy had his beer to cool himself down.

Daddy and me.. Day 2

The second day with Daddy started early as I woke up at 6am asking for milk. Jie JIe Lastri made french toast and that was my second breakfast. It was a good start to another exciting day.









Daddy brought me to the East Coast Park for another session of cycling. We passed by a pond that looked kinda filthy (a new word Daddy taught me on the way to the beach) but had lots of turtles in there. I couldn't really tell how many cos the water was polluted but I could see many heads bobbing up and down. We then cycled along the beach and Daddy wanted to head to the East Coast McDonalds but I got lazy after like 100 meters of cycling so Daddy thought it's best we drive there instead. Now it was a good thing we did cos as we were approaching McDonalds, Daddy realized that they are tearing down that whole place so he decided to bring me to Carl's Jr at the former Big Splash for fries and milk shake. We had a really good time there.
After Carl's Jr, Daddy brought me to the beach. I wanted to play with the soft white sand and even wanted to build a sand castle but the sand was very dry and I couldn't really stack them up. We were also fooling around some fallen leaves and Daddy said it felt like we were in Vancouver during autumn.

Daddy and me.. Day 1

Etonhouse decided to voluntarily close down the school for 10 days starting today due to the rising HFMD cases. Daddy had to take leave for 3 days while Mummy rostered herself for Thursday and Friday to attend to me.









We started the day by sending Daddy's car to the workshop to fix the lights. After we got back from the workshop, we packed up our stuffs for a swim at SAFRA Tampines. Daddy thought since we have not been there before, that we should go check it out. It was not impressive at all, just a normal swimming pool with a children's wading pool. We had fun nonetheless and left at about 12pm. We then headed to Simpang Bedok hoping to eat the Jalan Tua Kong Bak Chor mee but unfortunately it was close. We settled for this fish ball noodles and I impressed Daddy when I finished three quarters of the noodles. After lunch, Daddy decided to treat me to ice cream, even though I am still coughing and he made me promise not to tell Nai Nai about this.
Mei Mei Andrea was awake when we got home and we played with her until I fell asleep from exhaustion. When I woke up at about 4pm, Daddy had another treat for me. He put on my cycling gears and we went to the track behind and cycled to the playground. We were having fun building sand castles until it started drizzling so we had to hurry home. We got home, took my shower and had my dinner.
I had a fun day with Daddy. I hope the next 2 days will be just as fun as today.

Messi, move over..

Daddy and Mummy enrolled me in the school soccer team to get me some exposure to sports. After waiting for many weeks, my jersey finally came and I got to put it on for the training today. I had lots of fun with soccer. Daddy says I don't kick as well as Lionel Messi but if I practice hard enough, maybe one day I will be better than Messi. I'm gonna miss wearing the jersey when I leave Eton Schoolhouse soon.

The Real Bike

We were over at Uncle Nikki's house tonight celebrating Ian and Jen's birthday party. We saw Uncle Nikki's cool Harley and I was very tempted to sit on it. He surprised me by carrying me up and placing me on his bike. I was elated and had this big grin on my face as Daddy took pictures of me. After I got down, I couldn't help but bragged that I also have 2 bikes at home. Daddy corrected me and said one is a tricycle and the other is a 4 wheeled bicycle. But to me, they are bikes too.
