23 Months and 12 days old

I am so late in this. Sk's parents are here and Tobey is still busy sprouting his set of whites. I am also "busy" preparing for his upcoming 2nd Birthday party. The invites were sent out, the cake is ordered...how exciting!!!
He's wearing a t-shirt bought by my mom's friend from Malaysia. He looks like a little middle age man whenever he wear something with collars.

At Karmen's 2nd Birthday Bash

We had so much fun! Tobey was busy helping himself to the extensive range of toys Karmen has in between taking in mouthfuls of deliciously marinated and BBQ-ed meat (thanks to Tsulin's hubby, the BBQ chef from OZ) I met many wonderful mums and enjoyed the chats immensely. Wished we could stayed longer for the cake cutting ceremony (had to pick-up SK's parents from the airport), but nevertheless, we enjoyed our selves


Good food, good company (both for the adults and kids) and good weather, it couldn't get any better :)

Pic Fix

I have not much time nor motivation to blog lately, but that is not an excuse to Tobey's Number 1 fans!!!....Here are some pics...more updates later, the boy is busy going out and attending parties! Infact he just came back from one where he quietly took a bowl and picked smarties off the birthday boy's cake (after the candles been blown), put them into his bowl and eat them slowly in a corner.

Rubbery Rubbish

My son likes to pick the smallest little speck off the floor and hand it to me to throw it in the rubbish bin. Be it a small piece of paper or the smallest speck of dust only he can see (which I still take it from him in good faith and throw it in the bin before his eyes). A few weeks back, he handed me what looked like another rolled up grape skin. I took it from him and rolled it between my fingers abit, it felt abit plump and squishy, "Hmmmm..maybe there's some grapeflesh still attached to this.." but it's too rubbery...I looked down and it's a dead baby SLUG! HORROR OF HORRORS!!!!!

I screamed so loud (I know I shouldn't but it was instinctive), SK came rushing into the kitchen, I showed him and he asked Tobey where he found his little treasure...Tobey showed daddy to the area near the front door. It must have crawled in through the bottom of the door. SK then sprinkled some 'Slug killer Powder' along the front paving and true enough, the next day, we found many little dead baby slugs along it.

Random Springy pics

If u squint your eyes enough, you'll see SK n Tobey at the bench on the left, hanging out in the park amidst the blooms

close-up shot
mommy and Tobey getting ready to go out on a sunny Tuesday
This is what he loves doing around our neighbourhood. Picking up stones and throw them into the drain just to hear them go "plop"!
He also loves running this stretch of walkway...
.....and run up and down this wooden bridge.
My darling looks so much like a big boy here...

***************************************************************
On a less Springy note...these pics show Tobey trying to get to his new toy (a tractor I got him from the groceries supermarket) from a tied plastic bag. He tried using his fingers, when that failed, he took out his hammer, then the pliers, then the spanner....kekekeke

At Gulliver's

Here being Easter break long weekend and all, we occupied our time with many activities. Attended a housewarming party, went down to Bicester Village with friends, rested a day (SK worked, we rested) and today, we brought the boy to Gulliver's Theme Park. We decided an hour after waking up and just packed and go. Living impulsively :P

At first he was bewildered as all rides were unlimited, not coin operated (like the ones he is used to) and other kids gets to ride at the same time! He was quiet and excited at the same time :)

I'll let the pics do the talking

with mummy

car ride...one of his favourite!
one of the many toddler rides that basically comes in many forms and goes around the platform a few times...he went on the ship and teacup one too
Loved the background

on the Ferris wheels...
The Galloping horses carousel ride...he rode on it TWICE...we took turns to ride alongside him

A singing Orang Hutan (i think), complete with guitar strummingTobey was so mesmerised by it's singing, he sat through a few cycles...at each interval when the Orang Hutan stopped making music, he goes like the above pic...Another train ride..it was so busy, they had to share carriage with another family
Ice-cream break
On top of the fairy tale castle
Slides...if he had it his way, he'll be playing on it till the sun sets.....
"Are you having a tummy tuck?"
"Errm...I can see your real face, you know"

I remember last Easter break cleary, at that time he had just started to walk a few steps at a time...what a difference a year makes :)
