Aleric 3rd Injection + Hawker Brunch + Birthday Celebration

I was discussing with Mrs that we have been busy for the last 2 weekends and will be busy for the coming weekend too. Aleric had his 3rd / 5th month injection on Saturday. We did not wait as long as the previous time and soon Aleric completed his dose of medicine and 2 injections. Aleric has always been a brave boy when it comes to injection, short crying and he will soon smile again.

After the injection, we headed to SAFRA Toa Payoh to purchase vouchers before heading for the famous Fish & Chips store at Toa Payoh. The half day Toa Payoh tour went well until we were told by the Fish & Chips owner that they started operating at 12pm. Online source indicated 11pm. So, we decided to dine at the nearby hawker instead. It was the hakwer we went last time (before Aleric was born) for the famous but not so impressive fishball noodles. We tried the prawn noodles this time. I felt it was good but Mrs felt that it was average. We also had fried doughs and soya milk and packet duck lunch and desert home for late lunch. So, the family had a simple yet enjoying lunch together at Toa Payoh hawker. We shall find another time to try the fish and chips.


We celebrated our dear cousin, who had helped us the whole day during our pre-wedding photoshoot, 18th birthday in the evening. Aleric was slightly feverish after the injection so we left early after she cut her birthday cake.

 
Today, as usual, we traveled back Serangoon to visit Mum and let Aleric spend some time with his grandmother. We went back home, do up a bit of housework and put up our paintings finally, not that bad outcome though Mrs was complaining of the expensive 3M velcro for fixing the paintings.
 

This weekend has been busy but somehow, somewhat enjoying.

Aleric First Swim & Hotel Dinner

Last Friday was Children’s Day. I took a day off from work for family time. Mrs and I woke up early, fed and prepared Aleric and send Aleric to parents’ home before travelling to the Expo Baby Fair. We reached earlier and had breakfast at Changi City Point Ya Kun using the mobile AXS free coupon. By the time we walked back to Expo, it was already flooded with Mummies and Daddies who were queuing to enter into the fair. We queued for about 10 minutes and successfully entered into the hall. We bought Aleric his private pool (for the time being as he may have to share with his younger brothers/sisters in the future), swimming diapers, pillow, bolsters and many children food for him. The payment queue was long and I think we spent about an hour to queue to pay up our items. After the baby fair, we headed for the Robinsons fair in the next hall. I was wondering if the Robinsons fair was held to complement the Baby fair as they provide trolley in the fair also. This is probably why we could shop there for about an hour as we dumped all our Baby fair purchases into the trolley. We ended up spending more than $200 in the Robinsons Fair.

Aleric had his first swim on Saturday morning. It took quite a while to fill up his pool and we let Aleric swam naked since it was at home. The aftermath of his swim was to deal with the huge volume of water. We felt it was a waste of water to just drain off. We ended up using the water for bathing, mopping the floor and flushing toilet. I think we can only allow Aleric to swim once per month. The whole family celebrated Dad’s birthday at Carousel at Royal Plaza on Scots. It is amazing that we did not bypass any ERP on the way to Carousel. It had been a long time since Mrs and I had buffet together though the food there was not as good as what was stated online.

When | Aleric ≠ Aloha


Aleric is not Aloha.

When you lose temper, I will supply the gentle to counter it.

When you lose your night rest because of Aleric, I will help you with the housework.

When the route gets tough, I will still hold your hand and walk through together.
