I'm 2 Years Old!!!

I'm 2 years old! No birthday bash for me this year, but mummy and daddy still put in lotsa effort to help celebrate my 2nd birthday. My birthday celebration started 1 week ago with a 3D2N Star Cruise tour to Kuala Lumpur. Then, we had a small birthday party with our family members at home one weekend before my birthday. And today, which is my birthday, mummy and daddy took the day off (though daddy had no choice but to go back to office for half a day) and brought me to Polliwogs, follow by duck tour, dinner at Swensen's and lastly, we ended the day with a ride on the Singapore Flyer. And oh, not forgetting our supper at Mac Donald's before we headed home past 11pm! Very tiring but fun! See the photos and you'll know how much fun we had!


Spending my 2nd birthday at one of my favourite place - Polliwogs. Next, we went home for a quick shower. It started to pour on our way back home. Mummy and daddy almost wanted to give up to duck tour and flyer ride. Good thing they insisted and went ahead as planned.


It was still raining outside. So i started talking over the phone with my aunties. Thank you for all the well wishes.


Making bookings for our duck tour + Flyer package. We felt like tourist today:)


Click click click. Take "pic-cheh", take "pic-cheh"!

Quack quack quack. Blowing my ducky whistle.

Something special to mention here. Hee...mummy casually mention to the staff at the Duck tour counter that it's my birthday today and you know what, the guide informed the entire tour group and got everyone to sing a birthday song for me. Mummy and daddy didn't expect it and so they didn't manage to get the first few sentences which the guide said "there's a special prince on board who is celebrating his 2nd birthday with us. His name is Eagan". Check out the video:



IR, link bridge, Esplanade, Merlion and many other buildings were things we saw during the 60 minutes wacky duck ride.


Group photo before i drifted off to la a land.


Daddy carried me from Suntec City to Marina Square where we met up with Xiao Yi and family for Swensen's dinner. Still sleeping here.


Yoo hoo...i heard familiar voices and woke up from my dreamland! Thank you xiao yi and family for joining us for the dinner. And yes, thank you for the pressies!


Indulging in the food. Aiyah, what's that? It's super duper hard!

Happy birthday to me again:-) After dinner, we headed to Singapore Flyer for my maiden flight.

Ok, the ride was taking a bit too long. I was getting bored so i pretended to be sleeping. Worst still, i was having stomach ache! I kept repeating "Daddy, i stomach ache, can you take the key and open the door please". "Daddy, i want to shh shh...open the door can?" Pity the couple who shared the same cabin with us. And true enough, i rushed to the toilet to do some serious biz right after the ride. Kee kee... Thereafter, i filled up my stomache again with supper at Kallang Mac Donald's.


Left: I'm 2 years old today, so i get to eat supper at Mac Donald's. Right: Playing scissors, paper, stone with nai nai while waiting for our food to be served.


I love Mac Donald's.

Message from mummy & daddy: Thank you for giving us so much joy, Eagan. We love you so much. May you be healthy, happy and safe always. Muacks!

We had a ball at the Land, Sea and Sky today! :-)

For record purpose, here's my statistic 2 years old:

Weight: 13.9kg
Height: 87cm

I'm at the 97th percentile! :-)

"Mummy, don't worry"

I've a 4 month old cousin who recently got admitted and is still admitted to a hospital ICU unit. Mummy briefly told me on last Friday morning that there's a baby in hospital and is sick. Mummy showed me a grumpy look to indicate that she is saddened by my cousin's hospitalisation. I gave her a hug and stroke her face to "sayang" her.

Then on Saturday night, while mummy was trying to tuck me to sleep, out of the sudden i told her:

Eagan: "Mummy sick sick see doctor, eat medicine."

Mummy: "Huh?"

Eagan: "Baby sick sick, mummy don't worry. It's ok, Eagan sayang" (stroking mummy's face while saying this)

Mummy: "Ok baby, thank you!"

I kept repeating the same thing, "Mummy don't worry" and stroke mummy's face. Eventually, mummy felt asleep before i did.

Mummy's note: I didn't realise my that few words and expression had such an impact on him. It's not a happy issue and i didn't want to share too much with him coz i thought he wouldn't understand anyway, so i just casually mention about it once. I didn't expect him to bring it up the next day and ask me not to worry about it. Well, he may appear rogue to some, but he is indeed a very senstive and lovable boy, at least to us. I'm so proud of my boy:-) And with the whole thing that happened, it makes me treasure my boy more and not take things for granted.

It just dawned on me how vulnerable life can be. A chubby, smiley and healthy 4 month old who is totally breastfed can suddenly become so helpless after some "viral attack". The baby girl is my cousin's only child and it took the couple many years to realize the dream of becoming parents. Everyone is praying for the baby girl's recovery and hope that one day, she can be out of the hospital with her sweetie smile.

Phone Conversation with Mummy

*Ring Ring*

Mummy: "Hi, Eagan."

Eagan: "Hello, mummy."

Mummy: "Baby, what are you doing?"

(奶奶 whishpering from behind: "跟Mummy讲我在吃饭.")

Eagan: "I eating rice."

~Literal translation. *Bengzz*~

Mummy: "Where will you be going later?"

Eagan: "I going to feed fish. Go Suntec."

Eagan: "Mummy, you want to go?"

(A little surprise by the question)

Mummy: "Oh uhhh, can i go?"

Eagan: "Can."

Mummy: "But but...mummy gotta work."

Eagan: "Ok..."

Mummy: "Sorry baby..."
