T3

Brought little Declan to T3 on Friday, it was his 3rd time there..Nothing much to see actually, just thinking of letting him see the plane taking off. He enjoys it! Little Declan is getting very notti nowadays, he hates the word "NO" and will throw a tantrum when he hears that. I guessed I am the only person he is afraid of cos I am very strict with him. For example if Daddy Koh or his grandparents tells him "NO", he simply ignore them. But once he hears my voice, he will stop. FRankly speaking I am glad that I am able to "control" him cos at least he won't misbehave in public.

My mum-in-law commented the other day that she is fanscinated by the fact that:

1) My son drinks plenty of water (at least 4 bottles (125ml each) per day)
2) Eat almost anything especially vegetables like celery, beetroot etc.
3) Listens to instructions (i.e, when I said "no", he dun even dare to move)
4) Has a fixed routine (Bath at 8pm, drink milk at 8.30pm than off to lala land at 8.45pm)
5) Able to tell us that he wanna poo, and can sit on toilet bowl
6) Sleeps alone in his room
7) Can wash his head by pouring water directly over his head.

You should see the smile on Daddy Koh's face when he hears that, one look and you can see that he is very proud of his son. Of course, I reminded him that all these will never be possible if I never "trained" my son early..hahha

Declan, the little artist!

Bought some finger paint at Marina Square the other day. Decide to let little Declan has a go at it. Funny thing was he simply hates to put on the Ekmo apron! Making a fuss out of it..Haha...BUt still managed to complete his first masterpiece!

Declan is officially 1 year old today! Looking back, time really flies..Its seems like yesterday that I am in the delivery suite giving birth.

Anyway, bought a few cupcakes from crystal jade for a mini celebration since he has already had a big bash on his lunar birthday. Now his favourite song is "Happy Birthday" and he will protest once you stopped singing..So cute..:)

O ya, he has 2 more teeth coming up, so now he has a total of 6 teeth!

Yes, Declan's birthday party is over and I am proud to say that its a success! The food, ambience, decor and services are nice. As for the cake, its was cute and now I had plenty of people asking me where I got it from. So in the end, I think the money we spent on his bash is well worth it!

Because its his lunar birthday, mum asked me to "home-made" two buns in the shape of older days pillow for Declan to step on. This is to symbolise that may he start walking soon. Also we did the traditional thing of putting a pen, ruler, calculator, spring onion with corriander leaves, a book, drum stick and a toy stethoscope in a basket. It was then left at a distance away from Declan for him to select 3 items. Little Declan picked up the calculator first, then the veg and lastly the drumstick! According to my mum, Calculator means he is good at earning money, the veg means he is intelligient and dilligent and lastly the drumstick is being a boss with no lack of food! Haha it was fun to perform all these traditional customs.

Pics on his BIG DAY!

Yes, we are back from the Zoo! Super crowded! Declan and Daddy Koh dun like crowds, so we didn't really see the animals, just took a tram ride and headed home liao. Very disappointing, guess we won't attend any of my company's Family Day in the future!

Yesterday, Declan's " yee yee" gave us a treat at the NUSS club at Suntec, little Declan enjoyed himself cos got a lot of things to eat ma (Potatoes, fish, corn etc.) Enjoyed himself so much that he refused to sleep when we got back home at 9+ pm. In the end, managed to coax him to sleep ard 10 plus!! Good thing is he managed to sleep thru the nite though till 7am this morning.
