Celebrating the little men in my life with Pumpkin Patch Kids.
Have you guessed who I am talking about? Of cos, I’m talking about Jerry & Jerome. While I haven’t looked, they both have grown so much. Jerome is almost the same weight as Jerry now (just a few hundred grams difference!), blabbers a lot with a few clearly recognizable words like 水 and neh neh. He can speak a lot more, I caught him a few times saying stuff that blows me off, but at this point in time, my poor brain fails me. He’s still shorter than Jerry, but I think he will surpass Jerry very soon and is very much his own person. Totally different from Jerry. He…

Photography Class with Canon at Fidgets! #myfamilywcanon
About a month ago, the team from Canon Singapore invited the family for a fun day at Fidgets. There were arts and craft classes, and baking classes arranged for the kids but both Jerry & Jerome were kinda too young to be left alone or attend the class so we simply let them loose in Fidgets and have them run around the indoor playground for some fun under our watchful eyes. The adults, we got to learn some photography tips from ex photojournalist, Ah Bob the Jiuhukia (read the end of the entry for the tips!). It was our first time in Fidgets, simply because it was so far away from us…

Things Jerry Says #15 – I will fight the mosquito!
For some strange reason, both my kids have been attacked by a lot of mosquito bites lately. I am guessing that the area around my mum and mother-in-law’s place is infested with mosquitoes and the kids have been coming home with mosquito bites. I personally hate mosquito bites, they are so itchy and they sometimes can itch up to days and more often than not, they leave a mark behind mostly from scratching, and sometimes, the skin just turns darker at the site of the bite and the legs looks spotted. Today. Jerry is complaining about the mosquito bites on his legs and I wish I can do something for…

Cold Storage Kids Run 2014, Gardens by the Bay
We went for the Cold Storage Kids Run this year again! You can read about our last year’s experience but this year was really exciting because it was held at The Meadow, Gardens By the Bay! I signed both the husband and myself up with the kids, and we were really looking forward to all the fun. The husband went for the Singapura Finance Blue Sky Run with Jerry and I went for the S-26 Family Stroller Fun Run. I can’t wait till next year where we can all be in the same race! I didn’t manage to check out much of the activities at the event because we were…

Things Jerry Says #13 – Greedy kid wants chocolate.
Things Jerry says #13 happened on a day when we were all at home chilling and just not doing much. Daddy emptied his pockets and left a $1 gold coin lying around our dinner table. We never thought much about it but Jerry appeared in front of me some time later.. J: (shows me the $1 in his palm) can you open for me please? C: Huh? Open? What is there to open? J: Can you open the chocolate please? C: (after 2 secs of silence) Orrrr.. jerry! This is not a chocolate coin! This is the real money! J: Mummy, but.. I want to eat. *insert sad face* Totally funny.…

I’m wrong. So so wrong.
So I got it all wrong. I don’t know if I ever mentioned this before. . But jerry has got this really irritating habit when he sleeps. He likes to climb on top of me, my legs, my butt and just wedge himself at any corner or nook that he can find between my body/arms/legs and all if he is co-sleeping with me. It’s bloody irritating to me because I cannot sleep with him pressing down on me! At all! He hasn’t been co-sleeping much with me now that we are staying in our own place, but I sometimes find him on my bed in the mornings. He wakes in…

Things Jerry Says #12 – Assholes
Things Jerry says #12! So, my kid turned 3 years old a week back and I thought it would be cool to ask him his age and see if he would reply.. and guess what? I’m in for quite a shock! The conversation goes… Mama (M): Jerry, how old are you? Jerry (J): 3 assholes M: WHAT?! J: 3 ASSHOLES!! M: Jerry, speak properly and don’t mumble. 3 YEARS old. J: Orrr… 3 years old. I’ll be really worried if he had 3 assholes! But the husband and me did have a good laugh. Actually, I called the husband into the room and repeated my questions at him to replay…

Jerry turns 3 years old!
Happy 3rd Birthday, Jerry! Mummy & Daddy loves you loads! p.s. Just be more obedient and listen to us ok? My precious first born, Jerry turned 3 years old earlier this week on 5 May. We held 3 separate celebrations for him, one for my relatives, one for der’s relatives and one at the school. It was a weekend of madness and I am still trying to recover from all. The blog has taken a back seat this week because I have been so tired out from fighting sleep issues with Jerry in recent weeks, and he has been up way past midnight.. at 1am? 1.30am? 2.30am? He is at the…

(Husband munching on some chocolates at 11pm at night and jerry came running out of the room after me because I got fed up with trying to put him into bed after 1 hr.
