Almost exactly 2 years ago, we brought Tobey to this park. Can read the first account
here. I remember it was really packed and there were many rides that Tobey couldn't get on. Not because of his height (he's already > 90cm, but because he was still pretty young (1 year 10 months old)). Last Sunday, which was Mother's day, we brought him there again to take advantage of the 'mothers go free' offer. It was forecasted to be raining in the afternoon, but we decided to bet against the weather. IT DIDN'T RAIN :P was abit gloomy at some points, but no rain.
There weren't many people there(probably because of the misleading weather forecast) so there was really minimal queue. We kept meeting the same set of parents and kids on the rides. This time Tobey went on each and every ride, except 2 out of 3 roller-coasters. He went to the smallest one. Like me and SK, our son hates rides with gravatical shift. here are several pics,
Notice the lady in front of Tobey? He has a son that kept running off screaming every time he's let loose from the stroller.. So funny!
Tobey got scared on this swinging ship ride. I had to ask the attendant to stop the ride immediately. Thankfully, they were the only ones on the ship, so he stopped it. He said that Tobey is considered a brave boy already, seeing that he's willing to give this a go.
Tobey rode this ride on his own. The boy next to him has got Chicken pox! He came and sat next to Tobey when the ride was about to start. Too late to do anything about it without seriously causing a scene.
If only..hahaha!
In the miniature church. He looks so serious.
You see, father and son having so much of fun!
At one of the teacups ride, Tobey spurned the cup too fast on it's axis until SK's compass got shaken and he was nauseous. FINALLY, I had a chance to go on some of the ride with my firstborn. We had so much fun. SK commented that he had more rides so far with Tobey than he ever had in his entire childhood. More to come dear! Fix your compass! (in two weeks time)
Here are the plums. Can't wait for them to go red, that's when they'll taste like honey. More and bigger fruits this year.
Conference pears...my favourite
As usual the lettuces
My boys have been busy building (with their new Taiwanese construction bricks 'La Pao' bought by SK's parents and brought all the way here by SK's aunties..longs story, as you can imagine, we had lots of visitors from Malaysia these past few months)...
tanks...(lovingly built by daddy for his precious sons)
trucks ...
and lots of swords and guns which are Tobey's speciality. He comes out with different designs each day with his Legos and stickle bricks too. The other day, one of his guns was a double barrelled one, complete with a view finder.lol!
Euan doesn't like to be restrained!
He's crawling and climbing stairs now. He can stand unsupported for longer now. A tough nut. Seldom cries.Whenever he bumps his head or falls, he'll just wipe his brow and carry on. Quite focus for his age. Very often he can remember where he kept his toy and will go back to retrieve it after playing with something else for a long time. Still likes chewing on things. 2 lower central incisors came through at 8 months old.
spending time with mah-mah
My almost 10 months old darling boy enjoying the swing:) I can't believe how fast it's been. 10 months went in a flash. He's slowly loosing his baby-ness.Sigh!
