Today was Boy's 3rd day of school. He woke up slightly later today. aiyoh! As he was so tired, I changed his pampers and clothes right there on the bed as he lay with his eyes closed. When he finally managed to sit up, he complained that he couldn't open his eyes. aiyoh!! i had to get the cotton wool to clean his eyes and coax him to slowly open his eyes. Thank God he managed!
Grandparents came to pick us, and thank God we were not late for school. He was a bit "nian" again, but he coped well and happily followed his teachers. Again, he enjoyed assembly, singing and clapping to the songs. A bit "nian" again after assembly, but was again ok with teachers. Here is something interesting: The group of children who were early for school were brought upstairs by the teachers first, Titus included. The school bus was late. So the first group of children were upstairs, sitting on the floor. After a while, we heard the 2nd group of children making their way to us. Well, Titus was sitting right at the corridor. He heard the children approaching, turned and saw them, and waved excitedly to them "Hello, Hello, Hello, HELLO!!!!!" Aiyoh, so very cute!
I was mainly helping out with nursery class, so didnt see much of him. I saw him briefly during his snack time. He looked happy to see me too! He went to stand right in my line of vision, caught my eye, gave me a huge smile, and gave me the "good good" sign! I was so very proud of him!
Ena came to pick him today, and he was happy leaving with her. All good today, with no incident. Good job, Titus!

School day 2
Yesterday, wednesday, was day 2 of school for boy.
It was a challenge for this mummy, cos we had to take find our way to school ourselves! I called for a taxi and it brought us to school, on time! we made it!
we reached school, and as there were no children there yet, i brought him up with me to my room to put down my stuff. He was so excited in my room as he looked out the window and saw all the lorries zooming by. but we had to go.
he was a happy boy during assembly, as usual, though a bit "nian" to me. He also ate well during snack time, which he had main xian with soup and egg and veg. he enjoyed all of the food! He looked at the boy beside him, who had more soup in his noodles, and picked at his friend's soup! His friend was slightly messy and had some main xian on the table. Dear Titus picked up the noodles and ate it! aiyoh! such a funny guy!
He was happy to meet me along the school corridor as I passed. And I was told that he kinda struggled with a teacher, and knocked his head on the floor. Grr. silly boy, and silly teacher!
But all was well, and that concluded day 2!

Start of school!
Titus started school on Tuesday! He was excited, I was excited (stressed), grandparents were excited, nana was excited! We were all so very excited for him!!
He was a very good boy in school too. He enjoyed the singing during assembly, cos mummy was around playing the piano! Well, i managed to peep through the gaps to see what he was doing in class. He enjoyed the toys in class. He was a bit cheeky during chinese lesson though. His friends were sitting on the mat, in front of the teacher. And dear Titus was sitting at a table, playing with some toys! A teacher came and shooed him to the mat, but he managed to shoo the teacher away. The teacher tried again a few minutes later and succeeded. Titus rambled away, only to walk to the library corner, where he took a book to read. Haha, so cute! I was so amused when he opened up the book, cos it turned out to be a chinese story book. (it was supposed to be chinese lesson time anyway!) He brought the book with him where he plonked himself on the mat finally.
He was also very good during snack time. Tuesday was porridge day. Eileen sand the grace song super fast. When she was done, i saw that Titus still had his hands together in prayer. I went to him, quickly said grace with him, and got him to start eating. I reminded him to scoop properly and aim the food well into his mouth. He was good! 90%. There was minimal spill on his pants, just 2 or 3 grains of rice. He shirt was clean! so proud of him!
Grandpa and grandma came to pick him up after school. And yup, that marked the end of day 1!
So proud of him!

talking sense!
Boy talks a lot now! And most of the time, he talks sense.
2 days ago, Tuesday, I had a concert with fairfield and the husband took care of boy for the day. Boy apparently had a bad dream during his nap time. He woke up trembling. Jim asked him if everything was ok, and boy replied that he had a bad dream, in which a boy ate up daddy. Titus was feeling all over daddy to make sure he was ok.
Then at night, i entered the house super quietly as I knew that daddy would be putting boy to sleep. As i heard the husband shuffle around the house, i simply stood at the little corridor leading into the living room. The silly husband shuffled around, having not the slightest idea that i was already home, and had a shock of his life when he caught sight of me. He did his best to muffle a shocked "fuck". As we both stared at each other, he in shock and me trying not to make a sound, we both heard boy from the bedroom "daddy, are you all right?" Titus must have heard silly daddy! LOL!
And this morning, Titus was settling in his high chair ready for breakfast, I was preparing his food, and daddy was preparing to go to school. Daddy filled up his water bottle and disappeared, preparing his other stuff. As dad was about the leave the hosue, Titus went "dadddy, did you forgot your water bottle?" LOL. Daddy is so blur! Thank God for Titus who is so observant and sharp, and able to verbalise well!

Botanic Gardens Again!
We love the Botanic Gardens! Boy woke up surprisingly early this morning, the weather looked great, and we decided to bring him out straight after his breakfast!
He recognised the roads, and was equally excited to be going there again. Once there, we headed for breakfast! This time, I had the Omelete with Salad. It was yummy! Boy had a share of the Hubby's crossaint, Hubby's sunny side up, my omelete, and his 2 chocolate buns! He ate so much!!!
After breakfast, Hubby had to go run some errands. So there I was with Boy, enjoying ourselves in the Gardens. He enjoyed himself, discovering the slopes there and running up and down. This Mummy was very worried, cos he was running so near the perimeter of the swan lake. One tumble would land him in the damn lake! I was practically yelling at him to be careful every single minute. Aiyoh. But thank God nothing happened.
After all that running, he was a bit tired. So we sat down and stared at pple doing qigong. Or rather, he stared. Haha. When the pple were down with their exercise, I told him that there was no one left to watch, and that we should go. He complied. Such a nice and agreeable child. Thank God there was a taxi already waiting at the taxi stand. We had a rather safe and quick journey home. :)

Zoo!
We are back from an outing to the zoo!
This is boy's 2nd visit to the zoo, and this visit is definitely a better one. Although tired, I feel accomplished and great!
First thing I did this morning was to check the weather forecast. Couldn't find it on the straits times (searched all sections!), didntt catch it on 93.8, no sign of weatherforcast on channel 5. We had to tune in to interactive TV to get it. Grr. Anyway, forcast was cloudy. The forcast for the next few days are rain with thunderstorm. We thought, heck, just go today.
Boy was generally pretty much agreeable abt most things there. He was super excited, seeing all the animals that he recognises and can name. He also enjoyed taking the tram. It was an exciting experience for him. He got a litte bored at the animal show though. Grr. But was still well-behaved. We hung around at kids world for a while. Hubby and boy went for water play. He enjoyed himself soooo much! Got himself so wet and happy! He kinda threw a mini tantrum when we had to leave though. But that was easily settled..i poped him a chocolate bun! haha. He was so hingry that he ate 4 buns at one shot!
Had lunch at ah meng's restaurant. we had nasi lemak and boy had porridge. Thank God that he is more agreeable with food now. He almost finished up his porridge. Then we half walked, half carried him out of the zoo. Boy, that was a feat!
He took his milk and napped in the taxi. Still napping now. haha. Oh well. We can start planning our next holiday outing!

Terrible Twos?
We have been going through some trying moments with boy these days. His temper is sure showing. His choice of words are also getting more demanding. Sigh.
