Flood Flood and More Flood!!

For the passed couples of days, there have been floods in our house!!! To be exact, there were floods in the bathrooms!!!

I have been trying to catch the culprit (though we know who!!! :P) red handed, but for some reasons, he was quick! He always got himself out before I caught him.

Even though sometimes his shirt might be a little wet, but he was out of the bathroom. And when I asked him what happened to his shirt and who did the mess, he will always point to the huge puddles of water and say "Oh!! Wet!! All wet!!"

Next time, I will try not to call his name when searching for him, so he will not get any signal of my attack!! :P

Swimming Lesson #2

We went for Jayden's second swimming lesson on last Sunday. JJ was all excited when he saw his swimsuit. And insisted to have it put on!

Happily, we all reached there very early this time, as I thought it would be better to catch the earlier lesson in case the weather will turn rainy. The weather has been very unpredictable lately so I thought I should have made the right choice.

Only to know that I completely made the wrong choice when we were there!!! It was so sunny and hot, all of us were burning our skin under the hot sun!! Seriously, we all turned charcoal, there were vivid sun-tanned lines on me, my face is darken by a few shades!!! All my whitening hard work over the years was gone!!! Dang..

As for JJ, he has very distinctive imbalance skin tones on his arms and legs.. He has gotten so dark too!! I hate myself for making my baby look so tanned.. Hahaha

As for hubby, I guess he is the one enjoying his sun-tan the most.. Not during the water session, but after effect. His skin color is more balance now, comparing to his super dark hands and super fair chest. Now, he looks much macho.. Hahaha..

Swimming Lesson with New Instructor

Last Sunday marks the day Jayden started his very first swimming lesson with the new instructor Jordan.

Jordan is a local swimming coach/instructor that has a totally different set of believes in training children to swim. He uses a more subtle way rather than forcing Jayden to "drown" (instead of swim) totally unprepared which happened to the British instructor that we had before.

I am very happy that our first lesson turned out totally awesome! Jayden enjoyed his lesson so much. Throughout the lesson, he was spending time with us all the time, as the instructor only observed from time to time from the side, and told us what to do next, from time to time.

I was so surprised that Jayden refused to leave the pool in the end of the lesson which was totally contradicting with his experience with the previous instructor. After the lesson, we could stay on for an extra 15min so we brought him to the children pool. You wouldn't believe this but he totally was in love with it after knowing his feet could reach the bottom of the pool!!! I would never forget the expression on his face when he first stood on the children pool. :o)

Next day, he held his swimming suit and told me "ngo oi".. Then I asked him if he wanna go swimming and he said while nodding his head "hmmm.. ngo oi". Isn't it awesome!! :o)

Even though the location of the swimming lessons is considerably inconvenient and far from our house, it is still worth the effort. :o)

Chaotic Kitchen!!!

I was extremely busy washing all the overdue rugs and foot towels.. Just when I had a little time to turn my head over and call for Jayden, he did not reply. To kill my curiosity, I stopped everything on hand and took a peep on the little cutie pie..

Alas!!!! I saw the floor was flooded!!! What happened?? And Jayden was looking calm and steady riding his little car round and about in the living room..

OMG.. Jayden has turned my DRY kitchen to a WET kitchen!!! The moment I walked into the dry kitchen, the water was flowing nonstop from the tap while the cabinets, basin and floor were all FLOODED!!! :o(

As usual, I scolded him for what he has done.. He tilted down his face, showed a sad and guilty look, and then walked away when I asked him to. What a PUPPY FACE!!! So cute.. Grrr... :P Then, he came back and showed me his half soaked clothes. Upon undressing him, I gave him a nice pat on the butt telling him how naughty he had been, but he just ran to the bathroom happily.. I am confused!! Hahaha

My little monster must have thought I have not gotten enough works to do so he decided to add up the pile!! :o(

Pool Fun @ Home

About few weeks ago, Mommy managed to find a 4ft round pool for Jayden. Jayden's first time playing in the pool was exhilarating and crazy! He went spinning, sleeping, rolling and splashing in the pool (of cuz the water was super shallow) with hell a lot of shouts and noises.. However, Mommy didn't get to take any pictures.. Forgetful Mommy! :o(

This is the second time we are playing in the pool, to be exact Jayden was in and Mommy was out of the pool playing with him.. For some reasons, Jayden wasn't as excited as the first time.. Perhaps due to a lot of kids noises from the playground that made him envious and wanted to go to the playground instead of playing in the pool..

Anyway, Mommy took some pictures this time.. :o)

Big boy in the pool!! :o)
