My old navy package arrived today, this is the wizard suit I bought for Aeon. It is so difficult to keep him still to take photos, we gotta take turns. Aeon likes the hat alot, he is wearing the hat walking around the house now.
Aeon is becoming more and more warm these days. He would always wave at everyone, including strangers and the air "Bye Bye" every time we leave a place. Example, eating places, cashiers, out the taxis. He can sense when we are leaving and will wave and hi bye without asking. He is behaving like a beauty pageant king, waving and saying bye bye as we walked.
Just now we went to the hawker centre and he waved bye bye at a passerby and made him laugh.
Getting more and more fun now!

Captured this video on 22 Oct evening. However this one is we taught him to wave bye:
We went to our cousin's wedding yesterday at the Botanic Gardens. So sweet and romantic.... Aeon didn't go as we are worried that he cannot sit still there.....
We dropped Aeon at my mum's house and took bus 153 dropped at TPY and changed to 105. Took photos whenever possible.
Met so many relatives and were being asked when we plan for the next one. Hope they won't mistaken my current flabby tummy.... Still 5 more kg to lose....
We found a nice coffee stall called Cafe 107 at Serangoon Ave 1, think it is block 107 so they called it Cafe 107? It sells so many things, just like the Chinese saying "麻雀虽小,五脏俱全" (a small place selling a wide variety of food). Their prices are quite affordable, food presentation is nice.
It is like a mini chomp chomp, actually so much better than chomp chomp. We went there twice this week.
Ice mocha $1.70
Sambal stingray rice $4.5o (the stingray tastes very professional)

Aeon feeding himself, can you see the bump he got from his jumping?
I bought a dvd from Gymboree weeks ago and Aeon is loving it. He loves it so much that he will smile when he sees the kids dancing, jumping. He's treating the bed like a trampoline this afternoon. He jumped and jumped. Each time he landed on his butts, he will laugh at himself. However, he miscalculated just now. He landed on the edge of the bed and rolled off the bed and...... landed on his butt and knocked his forehead.
Me and Aeon were bored, so we went to the park for a short walk before we proceed for our dinner. We wanted to play with the slide but it was wet. So I just let him run around - he was happy to roam around too. His walking is better now as he did not hang them in mid-air this frequent now.
Took some videos and photos. Aeon 'helped' to set my cellphone to 'Solarize mode', so the videos and photos looked weird (too bright/silver)
Roaming around.... beginning of the video - he just fell down and trying to pick himself up. mid of video - he saw a bus from far away and called out 'Bus'. I was trying to chase after him throughout the video.
Chasing after him
Mummy felt so tired after the chase and decided to put him back into the stroller and rest.
While resting, Aeon tried to get himself out of the stroller:
Aeon fell asleep on the way to MacDonald's and I finally get to have some peaceful moment enjoying my dinner. :D
Aeon just turned 19 months old yesterday! He is now trying to add like an adult:
Prefers to do things himself, like feeding himself
Getting more and more vocal and demanding
Giving Roland a nickname - Babber/Bubble (He will shout for Babber/Bubble every time he wants something example Milk, getting out of the room, getting out of the cage etc.,)
Feed himself using fork and spoon
Able to predict what we are going to do next whenever we say something..... Like sometimes when we are in the bedroom, I would remark that I am going to the toilet and he would stand up immediately and waited for me to open the door.
Display signs that he is actually thinking.....Last night, when Roland told him that he would go and get wooden cubes for him to play, Aeon immediately passed his milk bottle to Roland indicating that he wanted milk as well.
Related by me (Fern). Ever since, mother in law passed on, I told myself that I should treasure life and try to minimize regrets in life. So I decided to have a baby asap while we are still young (the earlier I give birth, the longer the time I spent with our creations.)Just as I was about to give up hopes,I was really delighted to learn about my pregnancy. I was told by a Chinese Sinseh 2 weeks prior this that my womb is very cold, difficult to conceive, weak etc., I am happy and sad because mother in law did not manage to share our joy with me. One fine day in July 2006, buried with nostalgic feelings about my mother in law, I decided to start my blog. I hope that our creations (currently Aeon) can read about how we cope with them, love them, about the fun we had...
Aeon is always called pig in this blog, because he's borned in the year 2007, Chinese year of the Golden Pig.
