Hort Park

This morning, Papa brought me and Mama out for breakfast at a coffeeshop near Yew Tee central. This is one of the rare times we have breakfast at this coffeeshop. Then we went home for a short rest and then went fetch Wai Po (my maternal grandma) after she had finished her dialysis session. Wai Po sat at the back of the car with me in the car seat and I smiled at her attempts to interact with me. In fact, I actually squinted a couple of times when she played with me and this made Wai Po very amused. I had never behaved in this way before towards anyone.

After sending Wai Po home, Papa decided we would go to Hort Park since it is at Telok Blangah which is nearer to where Wai Po stays compared to our home at Yew Tee. Also, the weather seems fine for the visit though it was already mid-day. So off we went to Hort Park.



Mama called to invite Aunty Celine and Uncle Ivan who stays near Hort Park with their 17 month old son, Luke Gor-gor to join us but it was decided that we visit them at their place instead.


When we reached Hort Park, I was quite sleepy and fell asleep soon after my milk feed at around 12.30pm. So Papa and Mama had me in the pram and wheeled me around as they walked on the Alexandra Arch





and took a quick tour in Hort Park itself. They will most probably come back here again when they are more prepared on another day.





Then Papa and Mama went for lunch at a food court near Uncle Ivan's place before we went to their place. I woke up before we arrived at their place. Boy, Aunty Celine and Uncle Ivan were sure excited about our visit. Soon after Mama pressed the door bell, she could hear Aunty Celine's excited voice proclaiming we are here.

Papa, Mama, Uncle Ivan and Aunty Celine had a good afternoon catching up with one another after Aunty Celine showed Mama around the house while Papa joined in at certain parts. As it was Luke Gor-gor's nap time, we did not get to interact much with each other. However, he did get a little jealous at the attention showered upon me by Aunty Celine and Uncle Ivan who took turns to carry me. Since Luke Gor-gor soon went to take his nap, I got to play with his toys and Aunty Celine even took out some memory cards to show me. Boy, she was really good at flashing the cards and my attention was really captured by her. Papa and Mama could also tell I was interested in what she was showing me. When we came home, Papa actually took out some old memory cards given as a free sample and he found the DVD of the memory cards he had bought for me. Looks like my brain will be getting more stimulation from these cards in the days to come.


Aunty Celine also gave me some clothes that Luke Gor-gor has outgrown. We had to leave at around 3.30pm as I seem to be getting hungry and Papa had promised to be at home for the air-con man to come and service the air-con. Before we left, Mama, Papa and Aunty Celine and Uncle Ivan decided to meet up again when Papa is on leave again. Mama sure looks forward to more play dates with them! :)
