Jayden’s Playground

Me in the shopping cart! One of the old videos that papa forgot (or too lazy) to upload. Haha!

This was taken during one of our groceries shopping at Rochor.

I fell asleep early last night, with mama massaging my back. Little snores could be heard. Not sure how long later, I was in dreamland and I started dreaming that I was in the pool splashing my hands wildly, enjoying myself.

Then I got wet, very wet! And I woke up from my dream cos I pee on my bed.

Papa’s fault. He didn’t wear my diaper properly before I go to bed and the diaper came loose while I slept.

Ever since i took that first few steps, i kept walking relentlessly. Of course falls are inevitable.

I lost count of the number of times i fell/knocks. To recount, 1 of the most serious fells are one of which i fell and hit my gum. The same spot was hurt again when i started walking with shoes.

It’s really true that children learns from their falls and knocks/bumps. My walking became more stable now.

Mama wondered how many words or objects i know of. I’m able to point to objects that Mama/Papa named. E.g. ball, clock, bus, aeroplane, etc.

We have been especially busy during rides in cars/buses. I will point to buses, cranes and mixers and demanded Mama/Papa to say the names of the objects. I will keep pointing to the objects with ‘huh huh’ sounds until the objects are named. That really filled our rides with fun and laughters. =)

However, when it comes to calling Papa and Mama, i’m still mumbling. Give it some more time man!

I took my first few steps today without any support.

Here’s a video of me walking supported and unsupported. I enjoyed pushing furnitures, both at home and outside. Haha.

My first trip to Marina Barrage…

The wind was extremely strong. Just look at messy Mama’s hair. Though it was a cloudy day, there were people flying kites. Look at the sixth photo. I was telling Mama abt the kites in the sky. Shortly, we played at the water fountains. Water has always been my best “playmate”. I love playing with water in my bath, swimming pool, etc. Look at how happy i was.

Mama swing me until I gong gong >.<

Look how cool I am when I slamdunk!! ^.^

Auntie Zixuan bought me this gift as my birthday gift. ^.^

I think these 2 words best describe our life right now!

Things are good but always crazy at home. Mama spent most of the morning cleaning the house, clearing the mess created by little Jayden and we can’t even tell in the afternoon – it looks like Mama hasn’t lifted her fingers in a month.

Haha.. Life is full of fun!

I’m officially a toddler now! I’ve grown from a little baby (2.5kg) to a toddler (9kg). I’m 72cm. Bet. 25-50 percentile. -_-”

I’m starting to take small steps while holding onto furniture. I’m following Mama whenever she goes. I like to move about and open drawers, explore new things. It’s time to baby proof the house, Papa/Mama!

Btw, i can clap very well now too! =p

p/s: It’s being a while since we last blog. Mama almost forgot the password. haha. =)

Yeah! Today is my 1st birthday!!!!

My day started off with a visit to Dr Lee. Routine checkup to ensure i’m growing well. Had 2 jabs too. Pneumococcal and Hep A. Dr Lee commented that my pain threshold is v. high. Cos i did not let out any cry at all.

We had a birthday lunch celebration at 外婆’s place. Yiyi bought a yam cake from Angie Choice. I have a few mouthful of cakes. I laughed happily when they sang the birthday song.

Then, we went back to Arab St. Had another round of celebration with my ‘friends’ – Neighbour Aunties and Uncles. 阿公 bought a walnut cake this time round. haha… My friends gathered and sung me the birthday song. haha… =)

We had dinner at Peach Garden – Novena. The servings are small but the food is nice. The room was nicely decorated with balloons and happy birthday signage. I had my share of the outside food (e.g. duck, chicken, fish, beancurd, etc) for the first time. The dinner ended off with a cake from Sweet Recipe.

By the time we finished the cake, i started feeling sleepy. Papa sped home and i had a nice sweet sleep. Zzzzz…..

What an eventful day! Thanks, Papa & Mama for everything! =)

Mama and Yiyi brought me to a professional haircut at Suntec today. Wow! When we reached there, there’s a long queue! Finally when it’s my turn to cut my hair, i started feeling sleepy. Oops!! Mama sensed my restlessness.

It started off smoothly as i was distracted by the toys and sweets. However, i slowly felt discomfort on the areas that was shaved. My skin turned red. I started to throw tantrums.

The hair stylist acted fast. Brought a piano toy to distract me. However, she didn’t manage to stop my tantrums. I pushed her away and shifted myself off the seat. I opened my arms for Mama to carry me. However, the hair stylist prevented Mama to carry me as she is almost done with the haircut. The crying continued for another 10 secs and it’s finally over. Phew!

Conclusion: Kids do not necessarily not cry at expensive hair salon.

Curious to see how i look like??
Hahaa! Watch out for this space….

There have been past occasions that you slept through the night (i.e. when Papa turned on the air con, routine bedtimes activities, etc). However, these 2 weeks, you had been waking up numerous times at night. Sometimes due to hunger, sometimes due to play and your cold. There was a few times you woke up at 3am and played in your cot till 5am. Your new found skill (standing up on your own) must have kept you active at night since you are only able to practise it at home.

Mama believed the teething has caused you to wake up too. Noticed that you sucked your thumb and drooled whenever a new teeth developed.

Hope this challenging stage will pass soon…-_-”
