Xavier is always termed by me as a Crying Baby, since young, he always has the loudest voice among those who arrived to the world around the same time as him. The nurse who took care of him during his jaundice time commented that he cried the loudest among those inside. *Shake Head*..
As he grows older, he like to use his crying as protest for not getting the stuff he wanted, e.g. pacifier, foods etc. My mother and mil said his temper is very bad.. In general, they always comment '你哭就赢了'.. Lolx..
The crying episodes with me around will start off with loud 'WAH' and then with the koala-style hugging, not letting me go... Not to forget the teary eyes.. But to train him, I got to be hard, so tried to scold him (it makes it worse), and now to keep repeating myself saying 'Mummy here, what do you want?' or 'I'm not scolding or beating, tell me what you want' etc.. It will work sometimes, provided I have not throw temper yet.. Lolx.. Guess really lots of patience to train him.. Samson said he like to 撒娇 upon seeing me.. Haha..
My parent-in-law went to Taiwan for holiday from 5 to 11 Mar, so have decided to take a short break from work and made use of the office's subsidiary for a hotel stay in Sentosa for our own family. This is the first time bringing Xavier to stay in hotel. Was having a headache what to pack for him since like so many thing to bring, milk powder, diaper, clothing, pacifier, pillows etc..
Well, thought of bringing the big luggage so that can pack the whole family's stuff together but Mr Samson doesn't like the idea and insisted that to bring a small one, then an extra one for mummy's clothing.. A last minute packing since both Samson & I were damn lazy and wait wait wait.. Hehe.. Went to the Harbour Front McDonald there for breakfast and Xavier kept using his fork to eat my breakfast. Luckily I ask Samson to get me the deluxe version.. Lolx.. If not nothing much for Xavier liaoz..
We went to the Underwater World first before checking in. Xavier was rather keen when coming to see a pond when can touch the sea creatures inside but the pond is too deep for him so we only let him touch the water surface. I managed to touch one or two, and but din manage to recognize the name of the creature. Wonder it is a catfish, one for sure if stingray?! Then we let him walk the tunnel but he is kinda scared due to the darkness. We also try letting him walk into a mini hole, but guess he is slightly taller than the entrance and dun know how to lower his head when walking in and out. 'Knocked' his head and was terrified. Lolx..
Then we proceeded to the Skytower but Xavier this time round is not so keen, he only look look then sit down and wave to the attending lady. Other than that he is just stone, not sure is it bcos he is tired or so..
Well, the hotel booked was Siloso Beach Resort cos when doing booking that time, we din really look into the hotel at the new Resort World and dun think they are available for booking.. Anyway, before having this sonny of mine, Samson & I have stayed in this resort twice for a couple time.. But that time we booked the room with a open jacuzzi tub. This time round, it is really a simple room with queen size bed. Then the room is bigger than our previous room and much area for the sonny to roam and play.. He almost ransacked the whole room.. Haha..
Brought Xavier to the swimming pools for a swim and guess he is really enjoying it, especially keep pointing to the slide where Samson & I both knew that he is wanting to go down the slide.. Haha...
The next day, we brought him to take the tram and he is kinda still, perhaps it is his first try. Told him to hold on to the seat in front, which he did, and later holding my hand up, asking me to hold on also.. Haha..
We went to the Resort World, but too bad the Universal Studios is not opened to public. I thought there is still the $10 entry, but guess it is only available quite sometimes ago. Nevertheless, we made our way and bought some chocolates from the Hershey's shop, then to the Casino.. Really people mountain people sea.. Haha.. But Xavier is too beaten up and ask for his pacifier and pillow to doze off.. Went back to hotel room and called room service instead.. After which, the 3 of us doze off to sleepland.. Haha..
After napping, we went for another swim, this time Samson teaching Xavier to kick in the water. Still not too prefect, but at least the sonny was enjoying himself..
Went outside to watch the fireworks from the Magic of Sea, but Xavier is still terrified of the sound and not enjoying the fireworks lights.. Maybe gotten to wait till he is bigger to learn to appreciate..
Last day not much activities, wake up, breakfast, Xavier sleeping, we packing, then home sweet home. But Samson & I took photos when Xavier is sleeping cos realised we haven't took photos with only the 2 of us in it.. Haha..
Wonder when can we have another family getaway again?! Hope not too far.. Lolx :)
