8th Wedding Anniversary


时光飞逝。。。今天是我和GT的八周结婚年纪念日。不知不觉,我们一起度过了八年。从二人世界到一家四口,我们俩都在不断地适应和尝试不同的角色,拥有不 同的关系。从一对谈情说爱的恋人到现在携手经营两个宝贝的人生及我俩婚姻的伙伴,我想未来这条路还很漫长, 愿我们能努力一起把它走完。今天GT买了蛋糕和鲜花,真不象他向来的作风,但是我喜欢!哈!

Our Trip to the Butterfly Park and Insect Kingdom

Last Saturday, we made a very short trip to the Butterfly Park and Insect Kingdom at Sentosa. It's actually quite a small park. Nevertheless, boy has enjoyed himself looking at the butterflies and insects :) and of course eating the yummy ice-cream at the end of the trip!
They got some parrots for
feeding. Ziyu got quite comfortable
with the parrots after some time.
Beautiful!

Birthday Celebration for Ziyu!

Our Ziyu finally turns 4 today. It has been a fulfilling 4 years for us as his parents as we saw him grow and constantly guide him and adjusted our parenting style with the years that have gone by. There are still many things for us to learn and fine-tune as first time parents and we are certainly enjoying parenthood because of the 2 wonderful boys we have. :) This year, as usual, we have requested 奶奶to bake a cake for Ziyu. The cake was again a very good and successful effort put forth by her. Today, Ziyu also had a great time celebrating in school with all his classmates :).

October 2009


Time for the monthly updates again. My Ziyu is growing fast and we are surprised frequently by the answers he gives us when we talk to him. GT would say good morning and bye to him on some mornings when Ziyu happened to wake up early before we went off to work and he would reply the same to us. There was this morning when he wasn't able to do so as we had left off for work earlier. He requested to call GT upon waking up and when GT asked him why he called him, Ziyu answered "Daddy, I called to say good morning and goodbye to you because this morning I never said to you." hehee....A few days ago, I brought him to the playground after work and and he was delighted. The next morning, he asked me to come home early from work and when I asked him for the reason (expecting him to say that so that I could bring him to the playground), he answered "Because it's going to rain soon!". So funny right....

There were some comical answers to some of the questions that we asked him this month as well. There was once GT asked him "How do you spell 'clock'?" "Tick tock" was his answer. We laughed like crazy after that. Just tonight, we saw some birds that people rear in a big cage and he asked for the reason to keep them in a cage. We explained to him that they need to be kept in a cage and locked up so that bad people can't take them away. Here's how the conversation went next:
ZY: Oh I know, the bad people will "piang" the birds!
Me: Ziyu, I don't understand you. What do you mean by they will "piang" the birds? There is no such word as "piang".
ZY: Yes, "piang" starts with the letter "P"!
Me:!?!?!

As for Zi'An, he's getting real cheery and smiley even to strangers. He can sit for a few seconds by now if he doesn't try to reach out for things. He also loves to play and would demand you to play with him by jumping up and down. He shows quite a bit of separation anxiety as well and would cry whenever he sees no one around watching him.

Birthday preparation

November is finally here and that means Ziyu's birthday is coming soon! This year is just like last year when we celebrated his birthday in school with his classmates. The main difference would probably be that we will definitely be bringing Zi'An to his school to celebrate with him as well. :)

The good bags are all ready....a simple one with some toys, a pencil and some titbits.

Zi'An is Teething!


Last Tuesday, Mum excitedly called me to tell me that she saw Zi'An's first 2 teeth on his lower jaw! Ziyu's teeth only started to appear when he's 9 months old. Zi'An is slightly earlier. At the same time, we decided to start him on the porridge once a day coupled with the usual rice cereal. My Zi'An is growing fast. :)

Lantern Festival

I wasn't able to update on the lantern festival as I had been BUSY!

We had a simple but fun lantern festival celebrations last week with Ziyu (Zi'An will join us next year!). We took boy downstairs to carry his lanterns. This year, he's one lucky boy cuz he has 3 battery-operated lanterns in all! However, he finally chose to carry the traditional paper lantern that we have managed to light up with the only candle we could find in our house! :P Luckily, the candle managed to last for the whole "walkabout". After that, we proceed to enjoy our traditional and snow skin moon cakes at home. :)

Initially he has chosen this
beetle one to carry downstairs
Then he changed his mind after
we lighted a paper lantern
Hence, GT and me took turns to
carry his beetle lantern :P
The soupsop moon cake that we had that night...yummy
