Kampong Childhood... NOT

We, or maybe it's more Mommy, had been cooped up at home for too long so we've decided to hit the Kampong road.... 

Here fishy fishy fishy.... 

Let's play with water instead....

Auntie is really good at this!

Not so much luck for Elliot's bucket... 

Let's pour the fishes back into the longkang !!!

See my EMPTY bucket!

I enjoy feeding the fishes more 

欢喜冤家

Elders say the more they fight, the closer they are.... Hope this is true for this pair of cousins :)

Botanic Garden.... AGAIN!?!

No driving licence yet...

Pose... and Click!

Another pose....

He's loving it too much 

Hmm.... you see any potential here?

"I'm taller than Daddy!! Yeah!!"

Monkeying around with the Man

Brrr.... Cold.....

VIP Seat

When the Cat (Daddy) is out... the Rat (Elliot) becomes a Monkey!

1st Movie Date - Cars 2

Nope, we're not in one of the colder countries.  We were catching the cartoon movie Car 2 at Shaw Nex.  It's Elliot's first movie outing.  Mommy was as excited as the boy.

At 3 years old, seating down in a dark strange place for almost 2 hours is just too much to ask for.  Maybe next year... 

The Lazy Helper

Elliot helping Mommy with the laundry.  But standing and waiting just ain't one of his developing virtues!!

Headache

The boy woke up in the morning complaining about head pain pain... and did not have appetite for anything except yoghurt.  Today being a family celebration of Alicia's first birthday, we braved his discomfort and attended.  A few steps after alighting from Grandpa's car, Elliot started vomiting.  Yoghurt being the suspected culprit, we decided to let him get checked at KK Hospital....and missed the celebration brunch. 

While waiting for his turn, the sick boy complained about headache again and Daddy lovingly massaged for him till he fell asleep...  What a day....

Sense of Humour

Boy: "Daddy, play with me."

Dad (busy playing his own game) said, "Give me five minutes."

Boy: "Daddy, what is five minutes?"

Dad: "Count from 1 to 300."

Boy: "1, 2, 3, hundred!"

Dad: =.=

Boy: "Hahaha..."

Mom joins in, "No, count to 10, 10 times."

Boy starts counting, "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10..."

Mom and Dad: =.='''

Boy goes hahahaha...

Sticky tape

Last night while playing with his Lego, Elliot accidentally torn the "instruction manual"... I immediately "Orrrrrh" him very loudly.  He panicked a while and quickly replied, "Mummy, can use the sticky tape..."  Whoever taught him about sticky tape?!?!  Not me for sure.  But I'm still very impressed with the little boy's reaction!!

Singapore Art Museum

The boy woke up in the morning with stuffy nose and very dry cough.  He even complained he cannot breathe!  So we decided to pong tang school today and pay the doctor a visit.  When told that he's going to the doctor, Elliot said, "But I don't want to see the Chinese doctor.... She pinched me.... and she gives me toy..."  In case you're starting to think along the line of child abuse, don't!  It's not pinching.. it's 小儿推拿.  The Chinese doctor highly recommended by friends includes children massage in their prescription. 

Strangely, Elliot didn't cough much during the rest of the day.  And since I didn't want to be driven up the wall by him at home, we decided to go meet his Daddy for lunch.  After lunch, we walked Daddy back to his office and I thought "Why not visit the Singapore Art Museum since there is free entry for all Singaporeans and PRs!?"  

The "Art Garden" is still being exhibited so we paid $5 for Elliot to "not touch anything" at the various exhibitions tempting the children to touch them !!!  I doubt whoever came up with such an exhibition like(s) children much!  

So many actions... 

Sian... coz can't touch the swinging flowers on the wall

Pasting flower stickers on the elephants...
A distraction to keep the children's hands off the flowers on the wall!

A room filled with trains & tracks but CANNOT touch.
Luckily they have another empty room with trains & tracks for the children to play with. 

Really a room filled with train tracks .. Floor to Ceiling

Fruit Stall... Banana craft made by Mommy

Elliot dressing up Superboy

The girls were singing Abba's "Dancing Queen"!

Putting & pushing the cones back in place.
Try asking a child NOT to climb onto these blocks!!!!! Duh.....

We're on Candid Camera!?

Pose & Gaylek... Vain pot!! Hahahaa...
