One!

Dearest Aunty Adelyn,
.

I turned O.N.E last Saturday and *boy-oh-boy* was it such an amazing day!!

.
The minute I woke up, even before having to change out of my dirty diaper, I got to play with presents!

Daddy gave me a V-Tech Dashboard. In hopes I fulfill his long begone dream of becoming an F1 driver.

Hsu Ah Yi and David Jiu Jiu gave me the Fisher Price Rodeo Bouncing Zebra! Woot!

.

*Boy-oh-Boy* so many toys!! So little time!! I quickly changed out of my dirty diaper into my birthday suit and before anyone could stop me ..

Yeeeeeeeee - harrrrrr!!! Gidddeee-up!!

.
.
After playing F1-Driver and Rodeo Cowboy with Daddy we went over to PoPo & Kungs house where I got a super-duper V-Tech CAR ... *toot-toot*

with little help from PoPo,
.
I was on it and ready to go!!
.
.
Later in the day, we all made our way to Yeh-Yeh and Nai-Nai's house for my VERY FIRST birthday party!

Jie Jie Alexa gave me a KISS just as soon as I got there!
.
and high up on the table! My birthday cake! I had to get Jie Jie Amanda to lift me to see. It was a 4-tier cupcake cake!

Everyone then gathered around and started singing "Happy Birthday"

Daddy then helped me make a wish and blow out my candle

Aunty Adelyn - I had such a blast that day ... it was a day filled with toys, cake and ice-cream!! I am such a lucky baby!

...by-the way.. thats my latest trick .. *my toothy grin*

don't you think I got it from Daddy? ......

Well, as Mommy says ... all good things have to come to an end .. and about time too! I was seriously pooped!!

aaaaahhhhhh ..... my first birthday, my first taste of cake, my first taste of ice-cream .... Aunty Ade .. i REALLY can't wait for Christmas!! wooOOOOO-ho00000000!!!

Love Jared

Project Bukit Tinggi - F.A.I.L.E.D

Dearest Aunty Adelyn,
.

It was a long weekend for Mommy and Daddy last week and because I've been such a good boy, they decided to take me on a mini-break to ... BUKIT TINGGI. Boy was I so excited ..... at first!

.

The morning started with me having a nitemare and woke Mommy up at 5am! You can only imagine ... it went downhill all the way.

.

BUKIT TINGGI - Mommy said she has never seen such a large concentration of Ah Beng's and Ah Lian's ever at one place at one time - THAT was Bukit Tinggi (sorry no pictures, Mommy said it would be rude to take a picture of that girl who wore a Spice Girl outfit .. and no, she wasn't a performer, she was a tourist)

.

First, we went to see the Donkeys - which smelled like when I make poopie - which Mommy said that summed up the description of the whole place - P.O.O

So since we started the trip with P.O.O ...things could only get better.

The swans were nice, although you would probably have to squint to see them in this badly taken picture.

The blacks ducks standing on one leg were funny ..

Things got slightly better in the evening when we took the "Mister-Mad-Man's" shuttle to the Japanese Garden. Man - The ride there was my first roller coaster ride ever! Mommy said she could feel her lunch coming up.

Anyways, the Japanese Garden was nice .. purely because Daddy and Mommy like green a whole lot. It didn't do a whole lot for me though as I couldn't go swimming with the koi.

and then ... drumroll ..... The best part of the whole evening was when ............................................

How was your weekend Aunty Adelyn ... I would like to know.

Love Jared
