Busy Saturday

Dearest Skyler,

We had such a busy day today.

You woke up in the middle of the night and asked for milk so Papa got up and prepared it for you. After that, you wanted to watch Jojo's Circus so Papa let you watch one episode. Thankfully, you were ready to go back to bed after that. :D

In the morning, we woke up and rushed for your gym lesson. It was buddy day today and we had invited Aunty Ching Ching and Mei-mei Kristen to join us.

You had your usual fun time there though you were so sleepy. And you were so willing to try out all the skills they taught today. You even sat on the parachute as we dragged it round and round! :D

One father soured the lesson for Papa though. He had kicked a ball that they had taken out for the lesson very forcefully and it had hit the ceiling and bounced back down. Thankfully, it didn’t hit anyone. Papa thought he was inconsiderate for having done such a thing in a room full of toddlers as he could have hurt someone. The next thing Papa knew, he kicked another ball that hit one of the kids who then bumped into you as you both were returning the balls into the bin. Papa was so angry! But as the gym people had the foresight to provide such balls where it was difficult for you all to be hurt by them, Papa calmed down and let it be.

After the gym, we drove down to the hospital where Mama had to pick up something. You were so exhausted that you slept all the way through.

We then drove down to Marina Square. We had lunch at Kenny Roger's Roasters where you ate your corn nibblets. After that, we went to buy Papa a new pair of shoes.

At the shoe shop, we bumped into Aunty Ching Ching, Mei-mei Kristen and her Papa. He was looking for a pair of shoes too.

You played with Mei-mei for a while before Mama brought you to look for Bubu and Moh-moh who were having lunch nearby. You were so happy to see them. :D

Bubu also went to buy a pair of shoes after lunch. :D

After walking around for a short while and catching a wushu performance by kids, we drove down to Ikea. We needed to have dinner and we also wanted to look for furniture for your room. You had such fun playing with a puppet lion during dinner and with the toys at the kid's section after dinner.

We then drove over to Grandma's for a short visit. Pek-pek had come back on business and we wanted to pay him a visit. You had fun jumping on Grandma's bed again. :D

After that, we drove home. At home, Papa went through some of our videos of your first few weeks home. We watched the clip of you being bathed by Papa and soon you dashed off to the bathroom asking to be bathed. :p When Papa refused as you'd already showered and it was too late to bathe once more, you were so distressed! :( Were you nostalgic about being bathed? Sorry, Lil' One. Tomorrow?
Papa and Mama love you!
