Isaac's Christmas Holidays

This Christmas was a hectic one for Isaac. It was packed with activities! Here's a run-down:

24 Dec - Christmas Eve @ Godma Flo's place

This year our annual Christmas Eve's gathering was held at Flo's place. Though it was nothing fancy, just a simple dinner with close family members but it was certainly heartwarming. We had a good time catching up with one another while Isaac was kept busy with cheh cheh Alicia, Marissa and Catilin's toy kitchen! This made me more certain that my purchase of the fisher-price toy kitchen set was a sound decision ;P Can't wait for the kitchen set to arrive! Too bad Isaac is an early sleeper and we had to leave at 10pm, an hour past his usual bedtime before Isaac turns into a grouch!


25 Dec - Christmas @ Vincent's place

This is the first time we have spent Christmas together with Vincent and his family, it was certainly fun and we hope that we will be able to do that again next year. Seriously, nothing beats spending such festive periods with your family and loved ones.


26 Dec - Boxing Day @ the Zoo


Now that Isaac is able to walk, we have decided to bring him to the zoo. We thought it would be less crowded on a Friday but we were wrong! The zoo was packed and we spent 45 minutes just to get the tickets! By the time we got into the zoo, Isaac was halfway to la la land. Within the next hour he was in slumber. We had no choice but to stay put in the pavilion for an hour before Isaac woke up. On the whole, the trip is quite fun but we realised that maybe Isaac is still too young to understand or know what's going on. Guess we will have to delay our trip to the Bird Park till a later date.

27 Dec - Haircut

This is Isaac's 3rd haircut. This time we brought him to a neighbourhood salon instead of those children hair salon which only cost $5 instead of the $20! Though Isaac was rather upset by the whole process but he was brave boy and didn't shed a tear. All he did was just some whining but we were still very proud of him :) And he did looked good after his haircut, more like a boy now!

Get the shaver away!

I hate the shaver! :(

Really must cut hair ah, daddy?

Enough lah... Don't cut anymore, pleassse!

1 small step for Isaac, 1 giant leap of joy for daddy & mummy!

After 16 long months, Little Isaac is finally ready, and took his very first step!! With the lure of a Healthy Times biscuit! Boy, am mummy happy today! :)

The day started out bad for mummy with everything that could go wrong at work, went wrong!! Feeling rather down, mummy went home hoping to find some joy with Isaac. And indeed, it was quite a joy for mummy, when Isaac took his first steps towards her!! :) And she couldn't have felt happier and suddenly everything turned out right again.

Sometimes, it's amazing how such little things in life can really touched your heart and brightened up your day instantly :) And I thanked God for this precious gift, Isaac, who never failed to brightened up my day no matter how gloomy it may seems.

Well well, now that Isaac can walk. It's time for mummy and daddy to don on their running shoes to chase after him real soon! But for now, it's three cheers for Isaac, hip hip hooray! For chalking out another major developmental milestone! :)
