Passport is Made

As planned, we took half the day off today to bring you to the Immigration Office. Of course, by the time you woke up, and daddy woke up and we were all ready, it was 9am! So off we went with your lunch packed (Kakak Wati is wonderful, she'd already cooked the moi moi by 8am), stroller and also all the necessary items for your passport application.

It was a quick affair. All done within an hour. As mummy had already printed and filled up the form, photocopied your birth certificate and daddy's identity card and brought along your photograph, we were given a number immediately. I was wondering why the man at the information counter clicked on the "Lain-lain" (others) button instead of "Passport Antarabangsa" (International Passport). Then we found out that we were given the "priority counter"as you are under 2 years old. It is for old folks and disable applicants also.

After that, we had nothing to do while waiting for 2 hours to pick up your passport, so we went to Gurney Plaza to kill some time and to have lunch too. So after buying a few things we headed for Chillis. We all had lunch there. Even you. Daddy ordered Macaroni and Cheese for you. So while waiting for your food, mummy fed you some of the moi that kakak had already cooked for you. And when the macaroni came, you happily ate that. Of course it was a very large serving, so you could not finish all the food.

Soon it 2 hours had passed and so off we went to pick up your passport before they closed for lunch. It was a quick one, you had in fact fallen asleep as soon as we left Gurney Plaza and mummy had to wake you up as you needed to be present to pick up the passport.

We reached home in time for mummy to relax a while before going off to work. Daddy decided to take the rest of the day off. And Ah Ma took the opportunity to bring great-grandma to the physiotherapist. So you spent quality time with daddy i.e. bullying your poor daddy. We expected you to fall asleep soon since you were already drowsy on our way home from the passport office, but you proved us wrong. Instead daddy had to entertain you until 4pm.. when you both finally fell asleep.

Phew.. daddy says it's been a long day!
