Cheng Beng in Ipoh

We went back to Ipoh over the weekend. But of course, before we went back to Ipoh, daddy and Ah Kong played a round of golf first. So since you woke up early on Saturday, we went to the Pulau Tikus market with Ah Ma and Grand-Aunt Doris. Ah Ma even bought the pork that you'll be starting on the coming week.

After daddy and Ah Kong came back from golf and had lunch, we were off to Ipoh. Everyone was already in Ipoh by the time we arrived. It rained so Aunty Sue moved the car so that you did not get wet in the rain. You're so lucky, so many nice aunties and uncles, grand-aunties and grand-uncles to care for you.

As always you were very excited when you reached the Ipoh house. This is a place where you can roam freely. And guess what? Your aunts: Yvonne, Sue, Ashley and Natalie bought you a toy and 2 boxes of Meiji biscuits. Daddy let you try the biscuits and you loved them. This is what you got:

We went out to Menglembu for dinner at the East Ocean Restaurant. You also had your dinner there. Of course it was the yummy porridge that Ah Ma had cooked for you. You were a bit of a rascal during dinner too. When our food came, you decided (as always) that the high chair was a great place to stand. So in the end, daddy and mummy had to take turns to eat dinner while the other entertains you. Later on, we had more "volunteers". Your 5th Chim Poh, 5th Chek Kong and also Ah Kong helped entertain you, while we ate.

Went home that night and you were really tired. Yet, you refused to sleep. You decided that it was more fun to entertain your aunts. But when they finally left the room, you fell asleep almost immediately!

The next morning, it was you, Ah Tai, 6th Chim Poh, Aunty Leanne and mummy alone in the house while the rest of them went for Cheng Beng. Again, you were all excited when they all came home and refused to take your morning nap. By the time you fell asleep, it was afternoon. You had your siesta with daddy and all your aunts! Of course when you woke up, no one else was allowed to sleep. As you made A LOT of noise when you woke up.

We left Ipoh after dinner and reach Penang around 9.30pm. The traffic on the Penang bridge was heavy, but you wouldn't know. You fell asleep before we reached the Jelapang toll and never woke up until mummy carried to our room. Even then you slept for a while and woke up to disturb daddy while he was working next to you!
