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.

The Day Out At the Beach

Cayden had fun at the beach, opposite the Dubai apartment and just 5 mins walk over, Jumeriah Beach Residence (JBR) beach. :)

Btw, his outgrowing his swimming suit again... but then again, who cares? He can swim topless too!

Holding onto Papa YT and dipping in and out of the water is fun! He could not stop roaring with laughter! Papa YT is tickled at his response too.

Papa YT says, "Son, we need to seriously pose for the Kodak moment."

Fuss Free Haircut

Cayden had his 2nd (probably) fuss free haircut in Dubai. The photos shows a very cooperative boy. :)

Almost done! Cayden turned around for Papa YT to take a photo of him. Cayden smiled at the camera:

Done with haircut! But the hair sticking on my face and neck makes me uncomfortable! *Scratch Scratch* POWDER PLEASE!

I like my new haircut! Good job Uncle Barber!

Cayden's Helping Out With...

Connoisseur’s been helping mummy with shopping purchases and housework!

He seems to be really happy lugging the oversized paper bag. What can I say? Courtesey movement is on and spreaded over to Dubai too! In addition, Connoisseur has grown more and is able to identify who needs help.

Shopping aside, he has been busy with housework too! The other day, the gondola was hanging outside the apartment and the gondoliers were busy cleaning the building. Cayden realized he should have helped clean up the apartment and so….

Angry with Papa YT

Aunty Linda has been missing in action for quite sometime (as seen in the single entry post last month). Was busy moving house! :)

Cayden hasn't been exactly the most well behaved boy but we must give him credits for being able to express his emotions. Lately, he developed the bad habbit of sleeping with lights turned on. Papa YT tried helping him to kick that bad habbit and in turn, received some nasty response from Connoisseur Cayden! Here's an account of what exactly happened last week:

Irene Ng says:
