my little money maker.
he who earns money by putting coins into his coin bank. about a month ago (or was it longer than that?), I started taking his coin bank out to let him play as a toy (since it has wheels that turns like a vehicle) to occupy him during one of those he-drives-me-crazy moments. I showed him a coin and how to put it in.. and left some coins on the ground for him to play.. he started putting them all into the coin bank.. and that started his money making venture! he brings the coin bank around and my family members will give him coins so that he…

I could watch him forever..
when he’s asleep. I think all babies look angelic when they sleep. I love unwinding my day, lying in bed, and just staring.. before drifting off myself. its like an unsung lullaby. this baby, I think he has an internal compass in his body or something. he disagrees with our bed orientation and always turn himself around every night, placing his head near our feet. we’ll turn him around a few times each night, only to wake and see him back in the same direction / position. we are so afraid of kicking him in his face that we sometimes turn ourselves around and join him. I…

dealing with mischief.
left unattended for a minute and this is what happens.. he does that to the tissue boxes, the wet tissue dispenser.. I found it funny, because I wasn’t the one that was going to clean up (i was rushing out of the house for work) but my mum had her arms up in exasperation. she started spanking my son as well, which hurts as much on me when it hits him. I wouldn’t have it that way, but my mum is so stressed out with my hyper son that whatever feedback intentions that I have are returned with defensive shouts that always end with a bad taste…

I must be the last person to blog about it. last week, we were invited to the official opening of polliwogs @ Robertson!

the decoder.
someone has discovered the fun of the decoding my iPhone. I don’t usually give jerry my phone to play. he calls its ‘apple’! not because its an apple phone, but I sometimes play the phonics song on my phone for him so he always remember the song as apple. I left my phone on the bed the other day and went about doing my stuff. when I look up, the kid was happily pressing the phone and he has managed to disable my phone for 1 min. didn’t manage to snatch back the phone so I took a picture as evidence instead. to show the hubby…

outing at gardens by the bay.
we popped by gardens by the bay 2 Saturdays ago. I had actually wanted to post this a week before but the lj app ate up my post when it crashed on me while I was reading my friend’s entry. so this is my second attempt at posting this and hopefully, I could still remember the details that I wanted to blog about. I have been wanting to check the place out. it was a perfect day to visit, having rained in the late morning before and the skies were a little on the gloomy side with the sun peeking out randomly from the clouds. the first thing we…

his first class.
I enrolled jerry for a art play class some months back at kid’s gallery and he attended his first class ever on Saturday! he is the youngest kid in the class. classes are for 16 months and above and he barely reached the age requirement. he is still at 15 months, 2 weeks. I know a lot of parents send their kids to classes like play gyms, gymboree and kindermusik at a much younger age but I didnt think it was necessary for jerry since his motor skills seemed quite developed at a really young age, but I wanted to start exposing him to a classroom setting with…

brunch @ house.
last Sunday, I met the usual duo (andy and Cindy) for brunch. its been a long while since we met! Andy proposed house @ Dempsey and I havent been there for brunch so we gamely agreed. Der & me were late. mainly cos we took a while to prep the bub who was cranky and nearing his nap time, and I couldnt head into the bathroom at all after Der left for home to wash up so I had to wait for him to return before I could prep. its still quite a logistical nightmare each time we head out when my mum isn’t home because Der doesn’t stay in…

weekend fun at polliwogs.
last Saturday, we had to bring jerry to the paed for his vaccination and when we were done, it was only 930am so we decided to check out the newly opened polliwogs at Robertson. I'm usually not keen on visiting playgrounds/play gyms because I'm worried about the older rowdier kids within the same grounds, since kids usually go a bit uncontrollable when they are having loads of fun. however, I read that it was not as crowded since its newly opened and it had a separate toddler area so we decided to go check it out. getting tagged. the service was good and since it was my first visit, the…

my cool kid at 1.40am.
I was sleeping when baby started screaming in his sleep. the husband left what he was doing (playing Diablo) and went to the kitchen to make some milk. guess what my son did next.. he moved in quickly and promptly took over the mouse. I told the husband that all that playing is bad influence.. now, I got some photographic evidence to prove my point! the kids really learn! thank godness he only shook the mouse in my face and didn’t know the exact keys to play. excuse me now. I gotta go lull him back into bed. *yawns* Posted via LiveJournal app for Android.
