24/25 Dec 2010 - Merry Christmas the 4th!

This is the fourth year spending xmas with dayan and it is getting more fun each year.

We stayed indoor on the eve since we reckon that the streets will be crowded. Father and son were hooked on the PS3 - castlevania while i worked till the clock strikes 12.

Afterthat - we head to koufu for supper.

Our xmas gifts - majority for dayan since he's got more gifts than us.

We did not had particular agenda for chrismas day. Went to orchard to buy some cosmetic only to realise orchard rd is close from 1pm to 1am. Quickly rushed to parked at heeren since that will be the nearest carpark to CTE for home.

We had Waraku for lunch - ordered the standard unagi for Alson, a ramen kids meal for dayan while i had beef ramen.

at Waraku - dessert - ice cream

Dayan finished all the food (except the salad and fries) which is really good since we had never seen him finishing up the kids meal. For the 1st time!

After lunch - road closure effected- we walked "ON" orchard road which is fun since we never get this chance during normal days. took a few pics before reaching Tangs to discover that they are close.

Went home for dinner before going to IKEA with MIL to buy extra storage - dinner at ikea.

19 Dec 2010 - Last lesson at GUG

It has been 9mth since dayan attended lessons at GUG. Over the 9 mths - we finally see improvement during the last 2 mths of the lessons where he started going into classes without us and cooperating with everyone else in class - remarkable improvements dayan :)

The school organised the xmas potluck party for the children with gift exchange.
Dayan got a present from Anthon his classmate - a playdoh set.

07 Dec 2010 - a day at the straits

We have received a letter from PCF to purchase the uniform for dayan which is the same day as our outing. Head out early and managed to reach aljunied before 10am.

We set sail at about 11am. Dayan was very excited about this trip and the moment he stepped into the yatch - he was enjoying himself - running all around.

All went out sun bathing except for the children and of course us (Sis, AL myself)- since we need to look after them.

Lunch was BBQ + fried rice. Dayan being a typical "chinaman" had trouble having lunch since this is not his typical meals but we manage to let him have garlic bread brought by sis to keep him full.

Nap time for the kids and we managed to escape out to enjoy the sea breeze for a while before it began to drizzle.

Stayed indoor until the weather clears and it was closed to evening. We brought the children out since its not sunny.

Dayan was enjoying himself - taking photographs. At one time - he even asked all of us to sit while he takes pic for the group. I get cold feet when i see him backing off towards the rail in order to get everyone into the camera window so Alson rush to stop him.

When the yatch finally anchored - Dayan says he wants to come back again :)
