Holidays

My new swimming costume, oops caught on camera (i did not eat that big bit of chocolate cake!), paddling in Bintan



Playing hide and seek, being Humpty Dumpty!

Thursday 2nd April 2009

We had a lovely time over on Bintan, we stayed in a nice villa and there was a big swimming pool with bubbles and slopes and walls to play Humpty Dumpty on - this is where we spent most of the holiday. I managed to do lots of walking and swimming, but was a bit upset that there were no bananas and yoghurts for breakfast (mummy was going to smuggle some out for lunch!) The villa we stayed in had curly-wurly stairs which i loved going up and down, although the adults were a little more worried about them, probably not the easiest stairs for a 14 month old!

We came home to Singapore on Saturday and did some more exploring - we went to Little India, Chinatown, Fort Canning Park and the Botanical Gardens as well as swimming and music - phew! I have definitely been tired by bedtime (as have Grandma and Grandad!) I have been trying to walk as much as possible and am now brave enough to walk one handed (some of the time) and I am happy standing on my own for quite a while now. I have also been practicing my climbing and have found my cot and the coffee table a good height to give me a bunk up!!

This paragraph is devoted to all the naughty things i have learnt this week - drinking the froth off the top of latte's, shaking my head and smiling when i have done or am about to do something mischevious, running into the walls in the padded lift, swallowing water in the swimming pool and then squirting it out of my mouth (cannot do this yet, but it is only a matter of time!), eating chocolate muffins, prawn crackers. Am sure there are more but cannot remember at the minute!!

I have learnt to say 2 more words this week - I like it - about Grandma's chocolate biscuit and bye bye! Although i have not repeated them yet, but watch this space!! Well I hope that you like my pictures, Grandma and Grandad leave tomorrow so next week will probably be quieter but it is daddy's birthday on Saturday, so I am sure we will have a busy weekend.

Take care and I will update you again soon

kisses (mouth open, teeth baring ones)
