Posing for Pictures

These days Cayden poses infront of the camera. He knew exactly what to do without too much prompting e.g tuck his hands into the front pockets of his sweatshirt. :) There's a photo of him with an elephant statue. He posed next to the elephant on his way up to a Japanese resturant in 1 of the hotels over in Dubai.

There is this other series of photo with him posing in front of the camera. They visited Global Village (http://www.globalvillage.ae/) which opens for only three months each year and only during the winter months! In short, there's too much land in Dubai! Here's Connoisseur showing off his new toy, a luminous smiley face rubber ball :)

Candylicious!

The world's largest candy store! Only available in Dubai. Look at the bliss in Cayden's eyes... Do I need to say more? :)

Pressies from Friends in Dubai

Cayden visited friends of Papa and Mama over Christmas and they had a party! I wonder if the appearance of Bunny Boy is the highlight of the evening. :) I just have to lament how much I have missed out those fun moments in Dubai!

Cayden certainly looked pleased receiving them.... :)

Celebrating Christmas in Dubai!

This is his second first Christmas in Dubai! The year before, he was still so tiny and was awaiting to move over to Dubai - if I don't recall wrongly. This year, he could also engage in some serious conversations with you... Here are some shots from Dubai. He received christmas gifts fm papa and mama! It seemed that Cayden thoroughly enjoyed unwrapping his presents and discovering the joy beneath it! :)

Celebrations will not be complete without a (mini) log cake!

New Year New Shoes

Cayden has grown so much taller and needs new shoes! Mama and Papa bought him new shoes in Dubai. The left pair replaces his current Nike shoes while the sandal replaces his pair of red Crocs. He has to wear something about 18 cm these days.

Btw, Uncle Sam and Aunty Linda bought him another nice pair from Japan. Show you photos later... It's brown and pastel blue in color. Very nice pair which Uncle Sam also likes very much. It's fortunate that we bought Cayden the biggest pair available in the store though I have to admit that at the point of purchase, my hunch tells me Cayden won't be able to wear it until 1 year later... We shall see when he returns to Singapore for CNY this year. :)

Merry Christmas!

Wahaha!

Uncle Sam and Aunty Linda are in Kyushu Japan spending their Christmas and New Year here. :) Bought a bit of gifts for everyone... including Gandpa, Aunty Janet, Aunty Yangming and little Cayden! I think Mama Irene and Papa YT will get food instead. :P Have not spotted anything exciting for Uncle Chris and Feng Ge though...

Aunty Linda caught a cold and hasn't been in the best shape to eat and do shopping. She decided not to buy the Blue Label bag she spotted in Parco at Kumamoto. Instead, she found a cheaper bargain at GAP! A furry haversack and a leather belt - all that costed her 1400 yen. :) The trip to Muji hasn't been great. Bought herself a thin thermal top as well as 2 blusher powder and 2 sticks of lip gloss.... everything in Japan is expensive these days owing to the high Japanese exchange rate. :(

Anyway... more to blog when I have the time... Time to sleep. Catching a train to Beppu tomorrow at 8:30 am Japan time... that means I have to wake up to take brekkie and do my final pack up at 5:30 am SGP time. Japan is an hour ahead of Singapore.
