Hubby woke me up this morning. Was so exhausted. Jeston has already woken and was watching The Little Einstens - The Christmas Wish. He alwis formed his own rocket space by using stools and his chair.

Helped Jeston to shower and we left for The Olive Tree Family Clinic and Surgery @ Anchorvale Link again. Called beforehand and was told we might need to wait for about half an hour. So left around 10 plus. We got the queue no. 33 and it was then only 25. Daddy dropped us off while he went to pump his tyre.
As it was still some time away before we get to see the doctor, we headed to the hawker next door for breakfast. I bot chwee kuey for myself and chee cheong fun for him without any sweet sauce. Luckily, i alwis bot the mini set of hello kitty cutlery whenever we go out. I passed him the mini fork for him to pick up the chee cheong fun. He was enjoying his breakfast. Paid S$1.80 for both which was quite reasonable compared to other places.

We then returned to the clinic to wait patiently for our turn. Jeston was playing the toys at the kids corner, building "an ambulance" using the big blocks.

It was finally our turn. Explained to the doctor that it had been 2 weeks since Jeston developed his diaper rashes. It seems that he still has a bit reddish around his buttocks. The doc checked his buttocks and mentioned the skin already started to turn brownish and it's gradually recovering. Asked him to check his ears as he had ear infection when he was @ Albany Region Hospital. He checked both sides using the ear magnifying equipment and found nuthing. We were relieved to hear that.
Next was mummy's turn. Told the doc my eyes had been reddish on and off though i finished the medicine he prescribed and applied the eye cream and lotion. He explained my eyes were sensitive and there was no infection. He enquired any recent change of environment which i declined. He said if i wanna be more assured, i can either go to AMK private practice eye specialist and visit the polyclinic which will then refer me to the National Eye Centre to double check. Of coz, the latter will be cheaper. I opted for the second choice. To my surprise, the doc only charged us for Jeston's washing liquid which costs S$6. He waived our consultation. He's really a nice and not those commercial doc out to earn money. Highly recommend him.
Daddy, unknowing that Jeston already ate chee cheong fun, bot 1 packet for him again. He was consuming it along the way to White Sands for his music class. Din allow him to finish the entire packet as it was too much for him. He was watching Little Einsteins using the ipad youtube inside the car. We reached the school earlier and headed to the washroom as he wanna pee. But besides peeing, he also pooed. Luckily, the ladies toilet in White Sands 5th floor had a built in mini toilet bowl for kiddies in the first cubicle which proved to be very useful. It also has a lower basin for kids to wash their hands.
Thought that we would be late but turned out that Teacher Fiona hasnt ended her earlier class. Waited shortly and saw the students exiting the classroom. Jeston's other classmates slowly strolled in. She informed us she cant attend one of the Oct class and suggested to make up for it by extending 15mins for 3 Oct sessions. All of us agreed. We commenced with the usual hello song. There were 3 girls and 2 boys including Jeston in the class. Thereafter, Jeston and another girl, M, started the game where both parents took turns to clap the beats, then Jeston supposed to count the no. of beats and showed me the right numerical card and placed it under the correct number of notes.
M was supposed to turn the number of beads for the no. of beats using a wooden mathematical toy. After we completed the 4 sessions of 1 to 4 counts, Jeston exchanged the cards with M. The rest of the class were practising the keyboards. Jeston was still unable to focus on the right keys for the keyboard. It was not easy to teach him as he do not like to be forced using his fingers. Looks like i gotta be more patient before he can master the right fingers for the right keys. We ended the class with a goodbye song.
Daddy already tabaoed our lunches from one of the hawker so we headed home. Jeston had fish soup with rice while we had otah, duck and roasted meat for lunch. After lunch, wanted to coax Jeston to sleep but he was wide awake. So i suggested we take the mrt to my mum's place and he was excited about taking mrt. Daddy was already sleeping. I helped him to change and got ready. There was no seat so i asked a young chap to give up the priority seat. Nowadays, people are very inconsiderate even if they witness you carrying young kids.
After 2 commuters alighted, we managed to get seats for both Jeston and myself. Along the way in the mrt, i noticed the ladies, an auntie and her daughter smiling. Realised Jeston was almost dozing off in his seat. I pulled him over my side and he dozed off. Upon reaching Outram mrt, i carried him and walked all the way to transit to Tiong Bahru mrt. Luckily, when we entered the mrt, a nice lady gave her seat to me as she saw me carrying Jeston. After we reached Tiong Bahru mrt control, i gotta ask Jeston to wake up to reach for my wallet. Wanted to bring him to my mum's place but as he had woke up, i bot him to Tiong Bahru Plaza to meet up with my secondary school friend, L as she was leaving for UK on Sun night to pursue her masters for a year.
Wanna pass her a portable iron. Met her @ Four Leaves where i was getting bread for Jeston. We settled down on a dessert shop. I had walnut paste, Jeston had half bowl of almond paste and L had black sesame paste. It was her treat. She was amazed by how much Jeston has grown as she hasnt seen him since his baby shower. Was glad to hear that she got scholarship for her masters. She was a primary school chinese teacher. Juz finished her last day in school yesterday so she was very busy packing her luggage. She told me she bot a 29" luggage and the luggage limit is 29kg. She was very worried it would be overweight.
Advised her to reach the airport early tomorrow as she might need to pay for the extra capacity of the luggage. We then proceeded to Watsons where she did some last minute shopping for her journey. Jeston spotted the Pocky strawberry sticks so I bot 2 boxes for S$1.95 as it was on offer.
He quickly asked me to open 1 box for him. He offered one stick to L. I called my sis as she was also heading to my mum's place. Thot of getting a lift from her but she was still held up at work. Hence, i decided to take the bus to my mum's place. Bade farewell to L and told her would try to send her off tomorrow if i can. After alighting from the bus via the front door, Jeston waved goodbye to the bus driver where he waved back. I carried him to my mum's place. My brother whom Jeston is very scared of opened the door for us. Met my mum's neighbour's grandson. Asked Jeston to offer one pocky stick to korkor which he did.
He was already asking for my brother-in-law the moment he stepped into my mum's place. Was already asking whether we heading to yi zhang's place when we left our place on the way to the mrt. Asked him whether he wanna stay over @ his place, he nodded his head. He loves to play with my bro-in-law. Before he arrived, he played with the toy gun my father bot for him with my bro's girlfriend, T. She bot a barney sticker book for him. But he was more keen in playing with her.
My mum cooked fried rice with eggs and boiled ginseng soup for dinner tonight. She separately cooked vege and white rice for T as she dun take fried rice. My sis arrived shortly while i was cutting kiwi for Jeston. She bot along the blue tricycle she bot for Jeston's birthday. He was very happee and started riding it.
Besides that, my bro-in-law bot him a Giordano polo tee when they went shopping yesterday as he had a similar one hence bot one for Jeston too. It was a bit too big as it was meant for 7 to 8 years old. But kids grow very fast and am sure Jeston can wear it in no time. Many thanks to Cor and her hubby for the great gifts.
My father bot Jeston out with the tricycle to ride. They returned sweatly. Jeston asked maternal grandpa to give him a ride as he cant really ride well. Thereafter, my bro-in-law came and Jeston was overjoyed. His "buddy" was here to play with him. They played in my mum's room on her bed. I had my fried rice with egg and luncheon meat (my bro-in-law's favourite). After my mum cooked Jeston's threadfin fish, i fed Jeston his dinner. He formed a train using the chairs and asked my bro-in-law to be the driver by using the cushion as steering wheel. Very imaginative. He asked ah yi to be the passenger and he acted as one too. While i was feeding, he was busy shifting around.
He finally finished his rice. My sis and her hubby then bot him out with his tricycle. Returned perspiring too as they played hide and seek. Haha, i was enjoying the kopi that my mum made. We then sent my mum to Depot road for her Soka gathering. Jeston wanna sit alone besides ah yi who was driving. My sis wanted me to sit with him but he refused so we sat behind them. He was pressing and turning the buttons in the car out of curosity. He wasnt even interested to wave goodbye to my mum when she alighted.
We then headed back to my mum's place and met daddy in the carpark. Daddy bot the souvenirs from Perth for my mum and sis. Gave my mum a packet of Mondo nougats, one choc bar and a magnet and my sis a kitchen glove and a packet of choc from the choc factory at Swan Valley. Jeston continued to play with both Cor & her hubby while daddy and i enjoyed ourselves watching Ai.
I then gave Jeston his shower and he continued to play with yi zhang. By then, it was almost 10pm. I called my mum to inform her we would be fetching her. My bro-in-law then helped daddy to place the tricycle in his boot and we fetched my mum back home. She was amazed we stayed so long at her place. Jeston fell asleep shortly on our way home. Guess he was too tired as he din really catch his nap today.
Next was mummy's turn. Told the doc my eyes had been reddish on and off though i finished the medicine he prescribed and applied the eye cream and lotion. He explained my eyes were sensitive and there was no infection. He enquired any recent change of environment which i declined.
