Pork and Popcorn

There are 2 security guards at our house. One of them is young and the other is quite old about 60+ yrs old. We call the younger one "handsome guard". Recently the handsome guard help us to mix the remote control, we wanted to buy him something as an appreciation.


I told Seth " Seth, handsome guard is a muslim. We can buy him anything except pork" Seth replied" Oh, then he cannot eat popcorn as well...." Both KP and I laughed.... " Seth thats a good one ! ha ha ha.....

Prof P C Wong

This is my gynae, Prof P C Wong. Im 17th wk pregnant and today is my routine check.





For the past months, we had been telling Seth about Prof P C Wong. We wanted him to share the joy and introduce him his sibling. He went to the clinic with us today.








Seth love to take picture, he brought a camera, wanted to take a picture of Prof. When he arrived, he behaved very well. Prof said " u know kaganroo? the baby kaganroo stay at the kaganroo bag, now yr baby stay at yr mummy's tummy.... Seth replied " yeah i know, and u know kaganroo can fight?" (For whose who knew about our Australia trip and the VCD that Ah mah had produced will understand what Seth is talking about) Prof gave him a big smile.




Seth do not like other to carry him, but to my surprise, he went to Prof and wanted him to carry during photo taking.


















This photo is taken by Seth.


After taking, Seth shifted to "play" mode and show it to Prof.


" Wow u are so clever, u know how to take picture?" Seth gave him a shy smiled to him, wave bye and said " Look, Im marching out.... left, right, left, right...." and out he went.




Prof laughed and said " its so nice to have a child right?"

It's been a long time...

Hi everyone, I have not been writing on this blog for such a long time. Jaz had been asking me why did I stop writing, well, I'm just being lazy...... which is bad!!!

I am glad that my friend Pheobee introduced me into creating this blog. Looking bad at the past posts, I can really see how Seth grow and also remember tiny little things that we did together as a family.

It had been a while since I went to Pulau Ubin. We went there last sat, and it was fun.

This is our first cycling trip together. Seth enjoyed the cycling so much that when its about time to return the rental bikes, he said:"I don't want to give back to auntie...." haha!!!

This is auntie Jenny with Seth, and Jenny is not with WWF.

Happy family on the way back to Singapore.

Seth is very tired and its good. So that he will fall asleep in the car, then we can also sleep with him. It's very tired taking care of a "fully energetic" boy. Which means his energy never runs low. Only falling asleep in a moving car.

Today, we woke him up to go to Church. And he did not sleep until 830pm. In the car, he knew he might fall asleep, Seth pull his face with his hands, to prevent him from falling asleep in the car. Haha!

Club Med Bintan

KP had won a trip to Club Med Bintan.

It was a nice place, with friendly staffs to join u for activies and meals, food and drinks well provided for.

I love this picture, look at Seth... wow..... so lovely and a "happy man". He is always dancing, look at his hand movement :)

He wanted to play beach volleyball but refused to step on the sand. He is moving around on my feet .... Can u imagine?

Story Of A Man and A Boy

We had introduced some new words to Seth recently. One of them are Man. KP told Seth, " Seth is a boy, Papa is a man" Seth replied" Im a man". KP explained to him he is a boy now, to be a man he got to be as tall as him. Seth started jumping and crying " Why i cannot be a man, I want to be a man now" "Why?" "Why?"...... crying all the way............ "You are a big man, I am a small man"

Progress In School

Seth had been attending School House by The bay for about 10 months. I'm always wondering hows his progress in school cause we had missed out the meet the parents day. ( we never have the habit of reading the newsletter from the school). I managed to talk to Seth's English teacher, Irene, about 2 weeks ago. "Seth is doing very well, he is very persistent, full of curiosity, good in participation all activities... but he loves to cry over a small issue and it takes a while for us to settle him down" Ha Ha Ha.... that's exactly our Seth!

The school will have a monthly toddler's news (Seth is currently at toddler class, he will be promoting to play group in about a week or two time), there was a picture of Seth and that drew my attention, so i decided to read on.......

The school had organised a movies time for the class (sound of music) and when it starts, Seth asked the teacher "where is the popcorn?" " We don't have popcorn, Seth" said Ms Irene. "where is the popcorn?" Seth asked repeatedly ( I told u he is very persistent). "Seth, Ms Irene will bring my popcorn machine on Friday. We will make popcorn and all of us can enjoy the show as we are eating our freshly made popcorn. Is it all right with u Seth?" said Ms Irene. "OK" agreed Seth.

Ms Irene did bring along the popcorn machine, showed and explain the children the process of popcorn making. I really appreciate the teacher for taking the additional effort to make learning more meaningful to the children.

A Surprise " I Love You"

Seth had been very close with his father recently, i guess after the bonding time, taking shower together.... ha ha ha.

KP had gone to work yesterday afternoon and this little boy had been asking " where is papa?". He waited for the whole afternoon, when he heard sound of keys at the door, he was very excited, jumping on the sofa. When KP opened the door, he said "Pa pa, I love you" with a big smiling face. We were so surprise! This is the first time he said that. And of course i am jealous about it......

This morning, i had gone out to throw some rubbish (the cute is outside the house), when i opened the door, Seth was standing behind the door, "Mama, I love you"... Wow, that's really melting...... Its a "special feeling" only those are parents will understand, right?

Moving out - Jalan Batu

We had shifted out of our 1st home at Jalan Batu on 11 Jan 2008. KP and I were quite sad as its our first house and we had been staying there for 5 yrs and Seth was there 2yrs and 3months.

We were worried that Seth will be sad about moving out, thus we had been telling him a wk before our shifting . "This house does not belong to us anymore, we had sold to one of the Uncles and we do not have the keys to come in by next wk" He was all right at the begining, but the very last day of staying, we reminded him again, and he started to cry - " Mummy i dont want to shift out, this is my house, i want to come home" WOW.............. When i heard this i nearly cried infront of him, but of course i hold it bk.

The day had arrived for us to hand over the keys. I had arranged to bring Seth along, to show him that we had passed the keys to the buyer. The buyer brought along his 4yr old boy and he was running all over the house (which was very dusty and dirty after shifting out). He started to pick up some of Seth's toys and bks which i left in the cartoon and its meant to give it to him. Seth is of course jealous about it, and he started to snatch, cry .... " This is my house, my toys... give it bk to me" Its really heartbreaking........

We had shifted to Senn's house at Haig Ave, (Kp sister) yesterday when we drove bk from my mother in law house, we did not turn right which lead us to Jalan Batu, Seth started to cry again,"Mummy i want to go home, i dont want to go to Si Gu's house"

It had never come across us that Seth will be so emotional.
