School Outing - Sentosa beach

According to the Supervising Teacher, the school will organise at least 2 get-together excursions a year which included parents with the objective of exchanging information about the respective child and school developments.  Honestly, I doubt this trip to Sentosa Under Water World and Beach was effective in achieving such an objective unless the parents take the initiative to approach the teachers for discussions and chats.  

First, there were more parents than children and teachers combined (imagine, most of the children had 2 parents in tow...) which created much confusions and disruptions.  Then, it was very crowded inside the Under Water World.  And the heat at the beach was just driving most parents nuts... But the kids were all enjoying themselves!

$10 Hair Cut

Elliot needs a hair cut.  Yes, we prefer him with army-boy hair style.  But when an already expensive $20 for a Toddler-specialised hair stylist increased their prices to $22 and witnessing a slaughter-house hair cut in session, we decided to put our boy to the test at one of those $10 express hair cut outlet.  Unknown to us was we were not allowed to accompany Elliot inside the "salon".  We were ordered to wait outside for him.  

So here he was, sitting in the Queue, waiting for his turn, BY HIMSELF!  We simply have no words to describe our pride and joy!  Our little boy, at a mere 33 months old, behaved like a little man, waiting courageously alone for his hair cut!


Checking out his Q number....


"Is it my turn yet?"


After waiting anxiously outside the salon, our boy came out of the salon, a happy little man who was very satisfied with his fresh new look!


"Cheeeese!"

Quack Quack Quack

After procrastinating for many Sundays, we finally arrived at the Botanic Gardens to feed the infamous Swans.  Well, we ended up feeding the ducks and mostly the pigeons.  Elliot was too excited about throwing leftover bread everywhere to be afraid of the very hungry pigeons.
