Plane & Kid's Kampung

It was SUN SUN SUN day last Sunday. We woke up early to meet daddy's colleague at their usual flying venue at Tampines to watch them fly their remote control helicoper and air plane. Thereafter, we headed to the Kid's Kampung located at Pasir Rise Farmway 1 to experience a little of the kampung life.

Taking picture with the cool fighter plane and look cool in my shades.


Left: Close up of the fighter plane.
Right: Now, tell me where has the plane gone?


Left: The boys were focused on the plane.
Right: While mummy was distracted and focused on the crabby cloud behind the scene. Do you think the cloud looks like a crab? Well, my mummy certainly thinks so.


Left: Exhausted after watching the one hour air show.
Right: Lunchie before the next stop.

I slept very late the night before and was pulled off from the bed early on Sunday morning. So naturally, i dozed off immediately in the car while we were heading to the Kid's Kampung. I was deely asleep when we reached the place and the adults could even hear me SNORE *koor koor koor* so they decided to stay in the car and let me sleep a little longer. After about 20 minutes, mummy said to wake me up but daddy disagreed and asked mummy to drive back home so i can continue to sleep. Mummy was very determined to let me experience the place so she went ahead to wake me up. I was so excited when i opened my eyes and saw the dogs and jumped immediately off my car seat.


This is the place we went to. S$14 for 1 pail, 1 fishing net, 2 small packs of fish food, 1 cup of ice-cream. Not cheap, but just for the fun of it.


Left: A picture beside the "long kung".
Right: Let's get working and start fishing.


We shared and took turn to try. It's really not easy catching the fish coz they're really HYPER, just like me:p


Left: Finally, daddy caught 1!
Right: Oh, it's so tiny.


Holding on tight to daddy in case i fall into the "long kung".


Ha ha ha...this is so funny. Look at daddy's various pose while doing the catch. No wonder he could catch so many fishes coz the fishes all went weak and swam slower coz of daddy's smelly feet. Ka ka ka...


Mummy said like daddy, i also full of pattern. (Mummy's colleague commented that i look like "Sun Wu Kong" in the picture on the left).


Next, mummy & i proceeded to the feeding section while daddy remained at the "long kung". The smaller fishes we caught hates me but the bigger fishes loves me for giving them food:-)


Coo coo coo...feeding the chicken now.



I also fed the rabbits, ducks and tortoise.


Left: Daddy queuing up to have the fishes pack to bring home. Actually, when it was daddy's turn to let the uncle count and pack the fish, he suddenly said he want to let the fishes go coz we do not have a proper place for them. But the uncle convinced daddy to bring them home so that i can enjoy the fruits of my "hardwork".
Right: See, so many of them. And 90% of it was caught by daddy.


*Yawn* Super duper tired!

The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Together with Xiao yi and Rayden kor kor, mummy and i went to see the wolf. Oppss...i mean "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" play on 01/08/09 since daddy was away for business trip on that weekend. A day prior going to the play, Xiao yi bought me a story book on the same title so that i can be familiarized with the characters that i'll be seeing. And it did help coz i seemed to be able to relate the shepard boy, the big bad wolf, sheep, crying for help scene, etc. I enjoyed the close to an hour play and asked mummy to tell me the story over and over again when we got home. To think i'm someone who's never able to sit through to complete a book kinda person, the play and story book did help in catching and lengthening my attention span.

Note: There's some fighting between the boy and the wolf scene that was a little too much and "scary" for some of the kiddos. Some cried and some shouted "No".

Synopsis
Little Petey is bored, bored, bored. It is really not much fun to sit on a little rock, on a little hill, watching a little flock of sheep all day long. So little Petey decides to hatch the perfect plan to have some fun and scare the socks off his fellow villagers. But little does poor Petey know that a very tiny lie can lead to a whole lot of trouble...

The Boy Who Cried Wolf is a wonderful new production from The Little Company. Based on the classic fairy tale by Aesop, you will be delighted by how it is brought to life by an exciting script and a professional cast of actors.

This play is a heart-warming illustration of why it’s important to tell the truth, and how one lie can make a world of difference.

Hitting the Big "2"!

No, not 2 years old yet. But i turned 20 month old yesterday!

Vital Stats Update:
Weight: 12.9kg

I've been conversing more and i should say 95% of the time my folks can understand what i was trying to express and likewise, 95% of the time i could understand what my folks tell me (whether or not i choose to listen to them is another story:p).

Mummy and daddy think it's so fun and contented to see me grow up. But at the same time, they're (or rather mummy) worried about the issues of sending me to school few months down the road. Worry of me falling sick frequently once i go to child care, worry of me being "alone" in CC, worry of getting bullied (or it should have been me bullying others:p), worry of adjusting to different napping time and environment, worry of me being sleep deprived coz i'll be waking up early to follow mummy to CC.....blah blah blah.....and the list goes on and on.....Worries apart, at the bottom of their heart, they both know that i'll definitely benefit and learn to be more independent by going to school. I'll definitely miss spending the time with my precious nai nai when the time comes for me to lug my school bag and go to CC next year:(

"Accident"

I was sitting at my study table with 奶奶 one afternoon when i heard "siren". I immediately shouted "奶奶 奶奶, Accident"! 奶奶 looked at me, carried me to the window and told me there's no accident. I insisted and pointed to the kitchen and exclaimed "Accident, inside". 奶奶 opened the kitchen door and now she realised what "accident" i was referring to. It was the whistle of the boiling kettle which 奶奶 didn't hear till i pointed out to her.

Lesson to learn: Never doubt the toddler:-)

(We stay near the main road, so i always get to hear Ambulance/Police siren. So now, whenever i hear "Bee Boo, Bee Boo" i'll say it's accident. Kee kee.......)

I'm 19 Months Old!

I've learnt several new words over the past few weeks, and i must give credit to 奶奶 who has been teaching and exploring new stuff with me when mummy and daddy are at work. Here's a video of teacher Eagan teaching Barney some new words:

Note the location of my "classroom". It's in the kitchen, outside the toilet. Ha ha...that's the place where 奶奶, bibik & i have our daily afternoon "party".

And counting my 1, 2, 3 video:

"Mask Room"

I spent my usual play time with 奶奶 one afternoon. She introduced to me this umbrella look-alike thing call Mushroom. I disagreed with her analogy and placed my palm over my face to indicate my version of "Mask" and pointed to my room to tell her "Room". Ha ha...

奶奶: Eagan, this is mushroom
- Mushroom

Me: No, 奶奶. This is
- Mask

+

- Room

My New "Ferrari"

Ok, this post should have been created some 3-4 weeks ago:p (Just like my HK trip updates should have been 2 months ago!) Nevertheless, check out my new toy. A remote controlled mobile car from daddy for the recent "suffering" at the hospital.

If you remember my recent post, daddy's been trying to persuade mummy to nod her head and say "Yes" to him buying the car for me. Mummy didn't say anything but daddy kept wanting to go shopping around for "toy". So here's me, trying out one unit from Toys R Us. And no no, this car doesn't suit daddy's criteria. Next!


In the end, we decided on this car no.2. Hee....nah...not this. But mummy bought this spade and shovel set for me that comes with this carriage for our next beach outing.


Finally, after rounds of scouting around, daddy finally decided on this! A Ferrari F1 sports car with spoiler and all. And most importantly, it comes with a remote control. We were testing out the car outside the Kiddy palace in Marina Square. Mummy said we could rent the car out and charge $5 for a 10 minutes ride just like the animal rides outside the store in order to earn back the $. Hmmm...woman!


I definitely feel like the most fortunately toddler on earth. Thank you so much daddy!
