Daddy took leave to accompany you yesterday. Why? Because there was supposed to be no electricity in the house and he worried that you'd get too hot. So he planned to bring you out to one of the malls. There was supposed to be a generator, but we thought that it would be for the lifts only. It turned out to be for the whole condo. Anyway, since daddy had already taken leave (and mummy couldn't..sigh) we met up for lunch. You guys picked me up and we went for lunch.
Before we could eat, we needed to wait for Ah Ma to come to QueensbayMall. First stop was to look at the Christmas tree. You were so awed and excited to see the beautiful decorations. Next we took you to sit on one of the rides and then bought you a pair of dungarees and Ah Ma wasn't there yet. So where to next? Went into Jusco to play drum. I'm surprised that you can still remember and even how to get to the amusement area since it's been a long time since we've brought you to Queensbay Mall.
Ah Ma finally arrived and we had lunch in Dragon-I. We ordered some food and you enjoyed the fried beef noodles, ate 2 of the "Siu Long Pau" and even ate the "Chung Yau Peng" (I saw that you had noticed the greenies on it.. but you ate without a sound and even asked for more!). After lunch Ah Ma dropped me back at the office while daddy brought you to continue with your kai-kai. You didn't even look back at me after saying "bye mummy". Sob... So excited about playing that you just about ignored me when I walked away. Then again, it's better this way than for daddy to struggle with a crying toddler.
You were there at the mall for another 30 minutes before you both left and daddy called to say that you'd fallen asleep on the way home, despite telling daddy that "Evan not tai-yad (tired)". In fact you napped for almost 3 hours. So when mummy arrived home, you were all alert and happy.
That wasn't the end of your day. We went out to have dinner at Starview with Nanna, Ah Chor, 4th Ee Poh, 4th Teo Kong and your 2 uncles. After dinner we went to their hotel to cut daddy's cake, chat a little before leaving at close to 11pm!
Way past your bedtime, but you stayed awake longer than daddy! I guess daddy was all tired out from taking care of you for the whole day. I think you had a wonderful time yesterday. To make things worse, you refused to let us go to work this morning. Yup, you slept so late, but you were up at 7am. I wonder where you get all that energy from.
