We had a fun Sunday!
It was a gloomy Sunday morning. Mike and I decided to go to West Coast Park, instead of the usual Sunday market trip. It has been a long while since we last went there.
What a big difference! Now we don't need to follow him around that much. Matthew climbed around on his own and had fun.

>> Preparing to go down the slide
>> No no, still need Papa's help with this one
>> Look at then and now. I had a similar post previously, comparing photos taken in Feb 06 and Oct 05.
After all the playing and the rain clouds closing in, we went to MacDonalds for breakfast. Matthew declared that he wanted hotcakes, so hotcakes he ate, with jam and corn margarine. Yum yum. We had breakfast and read newspaper and what was Matthew doing? After his hotcakes, he kept himself occupied and entertained. It was amazing. We were there for an hour, but I can't remember what he did. Hahaha!
After breakfast, we went to VivoCity. Thank goodness we decided to stay indoors, because according to the newspaper today, yesterday saw one of the worst thunderstorms of the year. We were early, reaching before 11am and it was still quite empty.
VivoCity is HUGE! Where to begin about VivoCity? One thing Matthew loved was to be able to see cable cars!
>> Cable cars in the background
>> here's a shot of Matthew and Mama
>> here's a random shot of Matthew, eating rasins
We had lunch at the Kopitiam foodcourt. Matthew had his usual macaroni. Then we walked around. It was almost 2pm and we wanted to sit down at one of the many F&B outlets for a break. When we finally decided to sit down at Ben & Jerry, Matthew said he wanted to look at cable car. So we went to Haagen Dazs instead. Then he said he wanted to pee. Mike brought him to pee and he came back with Matthew asleep in his arms. heee..
We let Matthew nap on the sofa, while Mike and I shared a triple bowl of Strawberry, Summerberries cream and Cookies and cream with hot fudge and strawberry toppings. Yum yum. I must say that I've fallen in love with the Strawberry ice cream. Simply delicious!
After letting Matthew nap for almost an hour, we decided to make our way home. Luckily we did. The crowd started to come in and the sky opened up after we reached home. It was still raining quite heavily when we went to the market for dinner. Matthew had a whole bowl of kway teow for dinner.
Matthew had an early night, sleeping about 9:20pm and Mike went back to camp at about 11pm. Me? I was up, watching Man Utd lose to West Ham Utd, while sorting out some clothes and ironing my work clothes. Finally slept at 2am. Matthew, my alarm clock, decided to sleep in on this nice cool day, waking up only at 7:50am. Hahaha.
