Professional Hair-Cut

24 July 2010


Hubby and I have been cutting Eugene's hair all this while.  Hubby will trim the sides and back while I will trim the fringe.


Ya, there were a couple of minor hair incidents like over trimming the fringe or sides and leaving a hole or two, muahaha....

Hubby was entitled to a free haircut after having had 5 haircuts done and we decided to bring Eugene for the free haircut to tidy up the 'loose ends'.


We've told Eugene that he's going to get his hair cut and what to expect.

He was such a good boy. No fidgeting, no whining, no nothing, he sat thru it all.

Hmm........  I wonder how it's gonna look.....

The lady had asked if we wanted 'slope' or 'layered'. Hubby said 'slope'.

Aaargh....... he doesn't look good with 'slope' haircut. Look at that cut round the ears, so straight....

Aiyoh, I cannot take it - he looked so, so, how to put it, he looked like a clone! he looked like any other boys out there who have this kind of haircut.

He looked so 'beng' ***faint***

Next time, it's definitely 'layer'.

This is the best shot of him which is not so 'beng'.

One, Two, Buckle My Shoe

Eugene is finally able to put on his own shoes all by himself. Yay!

Eugene have been able to take his shoes off but not able to put on his shoes.

But when he turned 2, it's like somehow his brain's neuron clicked or something, he is able to wriggle his feet in and pull the strap down.

He even put his shoes back on the shelf (but I attribute this to the playgroup that he is attending as the teacher will make the kids do it).

He can't tell which is for the left or right side. He is still not able to pull the strap through one of the top loop.

But to be able to wriggle his feet in and velcro the strap is really something. So proud of him.

Singapore Garden Festival 2010

22 July 2010

Hubby and I have been attending the Garden Festival ever since it started.

Once again, it was been held at Suntec and there were 2 levels to explore.

Eugene picking up pebbles to feel...

Don't this look lovely? Looked like you were in a real kampong.

Are you doing the Maori War Dance ?

Eugene exploring and smelling the spices.

A Modern Tree-House?

  

Wish I have a house surrounded by trees.

Going with the flower and nature theme, I wore a dress with painted flowers and Eugene wore a t-shirt with a green frog on it.

There were an area for kids to draw.

On another floor, there were booths selling gardening products, plants etc.....

There was a Bonsai exhibition too.

You Are 2 ! Happy Birthday !!!

 11 July 2010

We did not want to have a big celebration for Eugene's 2nd birthday  - just us.

But sis-in-law wanted to celebrate for Eugene too and so we had a celebration with my in-laws and sis-in-law.

Sis-in-law came with 2 balloons, one of which has got Bob The Builder - Eugene's favourite character.

So happy with his Bob The Builder balloon. He just couldn't stop grinning.

My BOB BOB....

Smile Eugene! but he went all serious looking, ha ha.....

I got a black-forest cake from BreadTalk and stuck Bob-The-Builder Picks which I had bought from Ebay.

Waiting patiently for us to finish singing the birthday song so that he can blow the candles.

hoos, hoos

Thought I had to help him blow out the candle - but he blew it out! Well done.

Eugene making a non-too-please face - he wanted to get down and play with the balloons.

Frown look on Eugene. He didn't like the cream in the black forest cake. I actually did not want to buy a black forest cake but hubby insisted - why? - just because he likes it.

Think I'll eat Jie Jie's (does not know how to say koo-jie) steamed corn cake.

I like my balloons!

"I read" - says Eugene. 

Of cos, he can't read but he likes to look at it as if he is reading it. Feels grown-up.

Diaper Party Hats! Eugene insisted on hubby wearing it too ! So imaginative !

I am 2 Years Old !

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EUGENE! 

WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH !

*************************************************

A special treat for Eugene in the evening.

Eugene have to step on the accelerator to get the bike moving forward but he did not seem to know how to press it down..

Strange thing is that if the bike is on reverse mode, he is able to press down on the accelerator. So he was riding on the bike in reverse !

**************************************************

One of our neighbours bought for Eugene a backpack and cap. He was so excited and insisted on wearing it for his afternoon nap.

Children's Season 2010

09 July 2010


At SAM @ 8Q.

Came to know about this children's festival through some mommies' blogs.

On the grounds of the National Museum.

We were at SAM 8 Queen St.at 5pm. Free entry at 6pm. We were deciding whether to wait or not, but did not and paid the $10 per person entry fees.




FUNKY FOREST

Stand near the wall and a tree will grow!

You can divert the waterfall flow by standing on it.

DAISIES

Next section in the same hall as the Funky Forest is this floor full of daisies. When you walk on the daisies, it disappear and then reappear later.

ENCHANTED FOREST

"Step into our Enchanted Forest where sheep fly and imaginary animals roam freely".

So magical! Reminds me of all those fairy tales that I had read when young.

You can colour butterflies and paste it on the wall.

FLORIBOTS


"Learn about plant life-cycle through Floribots, an awardwinning work featuring over 100 giant robot flowers that 'grow' before your very eyes from a bud until they 'bloom' pink and yellow".

Eugene was scared by the whirring noise when the flowers start to raise.

There's a room for kids to read or do some handicraft.


Eugene's getting better at handling a pair of scissors. He put his fingers thru the holes whereas before, he will open it by using both hands to pry it open. 
I had let him learnt by buying him a plastic scissors from POPULAR.

WALTER'S GARDEN

The most fun of all for Eugene!

Here you have these bean bags which you are suppose to line up on the ground and hop over it. But as you can see, the kids went wild throwing and flinging it.


I throw! says Eugene

Jumping and diving into the bags.

har..... I have to run...... the other kids are throwing at me.......

It was so fun mommy!
