So, we took him to the airport to meet up with David's mom, bro and sis's bf for dinner. Declan like to take skytrain.. maybe there's some trill in it. He is always so happy to see train...and he learnt train from Thomas and friends haaha...
At 10pm, Gu jie touched down... we said hi and chat bit.. then went home.

David and I attended a wedding lunch at marriott... his polymate's Alfie's wedding. Saw lots of their old frens there and did lots of catching up....We took lots of photos ourselves without the newly wed couple haahaa...we are so busy too. After the lunch, went shopping... then went home to have dinner with my dad for the father's day dinner. We settle at sake dining in Tamp 1 for a simple dinner.
21st june:
Happy Father's day... David's 2nd father's day... the 1st father's day last year... Declan still so small so nothing much we can do... But this time, we went out shopping and buy prez yeah and from mommy's account...
Daddy was happy tho, he bought a nice pair of shoes, new belt to replace the old one and a nice pair of aviator sunglasses. We earn a free gift from our shopping.

Last week was a busy week cos Daddy away for biz trip from mon to wed.. so mummy has to look after the rascal myself most of the time... headache... Mon brought him and my mom to TM for lunch... then the moment our lift reach 4th floor, we walked out of the lift lobby my son can't wait to run into the arcade... nothing can stop him...sigh... so let him play while waiting for food.
Found a kid's drum machine so let him play that and see he is doing his drum roll haaha...
Declan will always look for the basketball machine and he could stand and look at the adults play for hours... he not bored but me and daddy can't wait to leave. Then i found a kid basketball machine... after much pleading and see how desperately he wanted to touch the balls. I bought an arcade $$ card for him to play.... I placed him on top of the machine... so he could at least see te net. The moment the balls rolled out, i passed the balls to him and he started to throw.. initially not use to the distance. After few throws, he could throw pretty well 5 out of 10 balls in with good hands positions... he observed well when he watches basketball games on tv and the gor gor at the basketball courts. He showed potential and also thanks to his Godpa's toy for his 1 yr old.. after the 9 months of training.. he is really not bad. When his dad came back, after much discussion, i decided not to dampen his interest instead let him have more exposures... so I went to toy r us to buy a reall kid basketball net for him.
He can't wait to play after his dad fix it up for him after we came back from suntec and after his bath... he started with dunk and later he shoot from distance the 2nd day we adjusted the height higher for him to give him some difficulty and he played with all the different sizes of ball instead of the given one which is smaller...now he is quite good... with all the different sizes.. i planned to do that a bit later but he can't wait and he did well so let him be... will slowly increase the height tho.
He is doing good good hand gestures... now whenever he is free he will be in the room.. we let him play for few days.. now going to 'pull' him back slowly to his usual routines.... drawing, studying and singing his rhymes.
Recently spent more of my time on facebook cos there are so many things there. Declan is 19 months now..... means he is more active, lesser sleeping time esp his nap... which means I need to find things for him to do... So.. I decided keep a rough record of what he usually do at home at this stage and of course some of this photos
This is my dear son trying to be naughty blowing out his saliva to show his protest....
The nicest sleeping post... he actually climb down to his bed and pose it for me... he pretend to sleep
Trying to be baby again...
Working on his artwork... no disturbance... is quite a daily routine now.
One of his art piece except the shapes... Quite like his sense of color... but sad to say he threw away most of the color pencil.. so I bought him another box of crayons... hope he can behave himself don't keep loosing things.
He is imitating playing drum... He loves to play the drum machine at the arcade...
