Okay, it's been sometime since i blogged. Cos i've been busy checking out others' blogs instead. Haha..
Naahhhh, been very busy in actual fact. With Hilman starting his playgroup at MMI. My baby's growing so fast man. Too fast!!
When he first started, he was still clingy to us in the class. Now he seems to front the rest esp during the Music & Movement segments. Check out his "butt moves". No wonder Bibik says the teachers love to smack his butt. Haha.. dun blame them.
What i love most is that he is slowly growing independent. My baby's learning to share, make friends. He's stopped being agressive towards other tots. Phew~!!!
Also we have been busy going for short getaways. 2 wks back, we went to Batam. Visited Bibik's hometown as well. A gd experience for Hilman over there. As he had his 1st experience taking the small sampan boat. Come to think abt it, it was my 1st time too. Haha!
And he really loved taking the beca (read: trishaw) and ojet (read: scooter or small bike). So much that he refused to come down.
And we had just came back from a short trip to KL last night. What can i say - the food was fab. So was the shopping. I am impressed at how much KL has grown. The One Utama and The Curve shopping ctrs are definitely comparable to our local ones. Worth our 20RM cab fare. KLCC too was great. We came to binge. And that we did, alright. Started off with having lunch at a great Thai restaurant at Berjaya Times Square. And had an even nicer dinner at TGI Friday's. Portion was so freaking big. And it was simply SEDAP!!! The chicken rice we had at KLCC was not bad too. Dinner on Sat was a late one though. Ordered thru room service. Why??
Cos of the 2nd leg of the finals btwn the Lions and Thailand!! We were so pissed that our supposedly 5* hotel does not offer sports channels. I called and smsed to friends and relatives to get them check the Net to see if there are eateries or bars televising the match. Not surprisingly, none cld find anything. I mean, why would they televise something which dun mean much to them?? We are simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. So anyway, off we went to the lobby lounge only to find it fully packed due to some corporate functions.
By that time, Hubby was pretty disappointed. Although he tried his best to conceal it (Thanks, baby). I pushed on and told him to try Melia Hotel (which was just opposite). And it's a miracle!!! They were showing the match LIVE!!! We were the 1st ones to arrive. And were shortly joined by a group of Ah Peks and a Malay family. They too prob had the same problem, i reckon. But whatever. The Lions WON!!! WooHoooooo~!!! (Btw, we catched both the Semi-Finals btwn SG and Malaysia and the 1st leg of the Finals at the Stadium. Another reason that kept me busy and too tired to blog. Haha!)
And Hilman made friends with a Swedish boy of his age. A very handsome lad. Complete with blue eyes and blonde locks. And yes!!! Hilman's taller than the young tyke. Dun mind me.. couldn't help being proud that my boy's taller than a European tot. Hehe.. Even his mom commented on that. Nice family. Though it was brief, we enjoyed meeting them. Hope their 19 hrs flight back home went well. Had tips from them on how to survive the super long flight. Sure need them boy..
So now we are back home in SG. And the only reason why i am able to post this is cos both my babies are sound asleep. Been so tired cos Bibik isn't around to help. And worse, she ain't coming back today!! Had a call from her that her passport will only be ready tomorrow afternoon. Yikes!! Luckily, my boss has agreed to let me go on leave tomorrow.
So Bibik, pls come back!! Hilman is already asking, "Where Bibik?? Bibik where??". Poor boy! And his Mama and Papa need you too. Sob sob..
PS: I am too tired to upload any pixs. Prob next time yah.
