It was a really good weekend in my opinion... cos we managed to get many of our wish-list done. Hubby and I finally brought out little spider-girl (she has been climbing all over the place - chair, bed, tables etc) for her MMR jab on Saturday morning. We managed to weigh her and she's now approximately 9.9kg. Almost the weight of a bag of rice... no wonder I get breathless carrying her up the stairs nowadays. Dr Heng warned us that she may develop mild fever within 10 days so we're all keeping our fingers crossed it'll never happen.

In the early afternoon, the entire family went down to the optician at Toa Payoh Central to make our glasses. Hubby got a new pair of contact lenses while Grandma Lee and I made a new pair of glasses each. I checked their records and realised the last time we were there was in 2007.

We all headed down to Jacob Ballas at the Botanic Gardens for a little bit of outdoor. After going there a few times, it doesn't seems as attractive as before, especially the area with the water feature. Hubby and I agree that we'll head down to the main park next time. At least we can lay out our picnic mats, read our papers while our little girl can play ball.

Dinner was interesting. Initially we wanted to use up the $50 voucher at Jumbo resturant. We called up the Dempsey branch and was told the place was fully booked. So we drove around and found an old coffee-shop like eatery near Kitchener Road that sells traditional Heng Hwa food. We decided to try it out in celebration of Father's Day. The food was traditional, no-frill and "honest". All of us, including Yee Sinn, enjoyed our meals there.

Sunday was the usual- Hubby went for his MacRitchie-Bt Timah walk, visited my brother whose wife has recently gave birth, went down to Grandma Chang's place for lunch and our afternoon nap before heading to my aunt's place for a swim. My little girl loves swimming. She loves the water so much that she refused to get out of the pool at the end of the day. She found out that she can be quite mobile with just her 2 arm-floats and her powerful kicks. Will try to take a short video of her the next time we hit the pool.
