At the grand age of 15 months, Jason can say:
Mumma - mummy I guess
Goooo- good cos he says this to himself whenever he does something
Guu - which is go

Not a lot but it's getting there!

Mummy, i need u to pat me.

Was talking to Justin about still needing me to pat him to bed even though he is a big boy now! Conversation went like this:
Me: you dont need teacher to pat you in school right?
Justin: yes, only at home!
Me: but why?? U are a big boy now so you should be able to go to bed by yourself.
Justin: but I like it and I am only 4 years old.
Me: so you need me to pat you till u are five?
Justin: yes
Me: how about when u are six?
Justin: yes
Me: until u are 10?
Justin: that's too long!!! Am big already then!

:) funny things they say.

Small j starts walking!

The hubby first saw small j take his first steps on Thursday. ;) just a few days shy of his 10th month birthday! Much much faster than big j did- remember that big j walked when he was 13th months old.



Here's a picture of him .. Doesn't he look like a big boy already! We joke that he looks like hubby but behaves exactly like me, whereas big j looks like me, but has 101% of hubby's character ;) guess its all fair now!

Another picture of him with the vegetable seller who is in love with him!

At the science centre

We trooped off to a place that we didn't seem to have much luck with - all the way in the west .. Singapore science centre! The first time we tried going there was when big j was around 2 plus. He was sick but not contagious and we were on leave so in the spirit of exploring, we drove all the way there to only find out it was closed! The second time we planned to visit but it started pouring v heavily. So we hoped we would get third time lucky.. Thankfully we did! And just in time cos a 3d dino exhibit was on!



Look at the size of the dino! Impressive I must say ;)



First off to have some
Macs breAkkie before we venture into the place. Hubby was on a quest to finish his mac monopoly and since it was the weekend, u get double stamps.



This dino exhibit is called "dinosaurs live" and features 3d dinos set in a forest adventure. The kids are given booklets where they can collect stamps along the trail and learn more about the different species of dinosaurs that lived. Think big j really looks the explorer part with his jungle hat.






Couldn't take much pics within cos no flash photography allowed and it was too dark. But we caught his favourite T-Rex and he was thrilled!



Baby however was seriously bored cos he was stuck on the stroller and couldn't crawl. Getting grumpier by the minute.



We decided to explore the other exhibits and this is big j trying out some slow motion detector. Must say that hubby and I recognise some of the exhibits and considering the last time we came here was 20 years ago, it's rather scary!



Here is daddy helping big j on what must have been his favourite - a canon explosion. The kids have to load the canon in the right order with the right materials and then set it off ;) of cos the loud bombs was v entertaining.

;) we spent half a day there before heading bAck home. It has been fun visiting and we will be back soon!

Occupations in school

Big j has been learning about occupations in school this term. So far I have heard him talk about policeman, fireman and doctor :) or rather I should say he calls it firefighter - perhaps its a more politically correct term! And that happens to be his favourite. Everytime we ask him what he wants to be when he grows up, he never fails to reply "firefighter".

He was sick over the weekend so we kept him at home. Mum came over to help and she related this funny story to me. Small j fell whilst trying to reach for something and bumped his head on the floor mat.. Of cos there was crying involved and a small bump on his head. Mum rushed over and said "Didi, u are ok.. Dun cry" and this was big j's valued added reply:

"Didi.. Are u ok? U hit your head? U have to go to the hospital u know.. Doc has to check u"

"he is ok, it's just a small bump, not serious so dun have to go to the hospital"

"no,no.. He hit his head.. Mummy said have to go to hospital to check and take medicine"

My mum reckons that he has been to the hospital one too many times this year.

She also brought him down for a walk during the afternoon and they waked past the neighbourhood police post. Big j insisted on entering to say hi to the policeman. Apparently he was all nice and friendly and say a very big hi to the sergeant in there ;) seems like he did overcome his initial fear to them already!

Happy birthday to me ;)

On my birthday, we did:
1. Brought big j to the hairdresser finally! At a cheap cheap cut of 4.80, he had his first salon experience. Aided by iPad technology, it was fuss free! Hubby asked what took us so long to bring him for a haircut, we said "iPad" ;)






2. We fed fever meds to the big j who was still running a temp :(

3. Brought little one to parkway for weekly grocery shopping whilst the big j slept. Small j slept too, finally once in his stroller!






3. Got flowers from both the hubby and colleagues. Plus a hello kitty balloon too!












4. Thanks to mum who agreed to pop over and help out for a couple of hours, hubby and I managed to go for a nice couple dinner at margaritas! Very very yummy but super ex, reserved only for special occasions.







Happy birthday to me!
