Things to do on a Sunday
1. Explore all the playgrounds in the neighbourhood
Mike brought Matthew out while I stayed at home to prepare lunch. They went exploring the few playgrounds in the neighbourhood. Here are two photos of Matthew:
>> Cheeky smile
>> Down the slide we go!
2. To the market for a chee cheong fan breakfast.
Not quite breakfast, more like a morning snack. He loves chee cheong fan and would mind eating it every day.
3. Eat Mommy's homecook lunch
I seldom cooked for all 3 of us these days because sometimes I simply don't know what to cook or what I want to eat (really dependent on my mood). It's so easy just to cook for Matthew; basically you can just give him white rice or plain macaroni, he would be happy.
Anyway, I felt like cooking on Sunday, so decided to cook the simplest one-meal-dish that could feed 3 of us - Claypot chicken rice, using rice cooker, with lots of Matthew's fav carrots and mushrooms. He was so excited when he saw his bowl of rice. He was actually more interested in the carrots and mushrooms when i gave him his bowl of rice. When he finally ate his 1st mouth of rice, his first remarks was "fan4 hen2 hao3 chi1" (rice is delicious in Mandarin). He made that remark spontaneously. It really made my day man!
>> Matthew feeding himself. yum yum!
4. To the airport to see aeroplanes
Well, this was something we wanted to do for a few weekends, but never got down to doing it. Off we went, to the airport. Matthew refused to sleep at home, but 5 min in the car, he was napping. We let him sleep a while more when we reached the airport. He was excited to see all the aeroplanes big and small. T1 had a better view of the aeroplanes, so we took the skytrain from T2 to T1 and back after that.
