Chalet @ Changi

Last week we went Changi chalet for 3 days. Yuxin had enjoyed herself during the stay. She ran around the house, ride her tricycle outside and the most tiring part for parents and gong gong was to climb up and down the stairs.

There were lots of boats and ships and planes in Changi and Yuxin likes watching it very much. She will sing 'Row row row your boat' when she saw a boat. Also, she will scream when she saw a plane. She had also learnt a new word there and that is 'sea water'.

Guess what? Yuxin will sing 'Row row row your boat' during meal time. Why? Can you guess the answer? Try harder to guess...

Well, here is the answer : "When we ask her to eat meat." It happened suddenly on one day that I gave her a piece of meat to eat and she sang this song. Usually, I speak chinese to Yuxin and the pronounciation of meat in chinese sound similar to "row". Did you get it? Hahaha... Very smart, right? Hahaha... And so Yuxin sings "肉肉肉 your boat".

Everything is fun for Yuxin except those 'uninvited guest' which kisses her. She was biten by mosquitoes and bugs. Poor thing... Her right feet was swollen due to one of the bites. If Yuxin is playing, she will forget about the itch however when she start to rest she will complain about it and ask for cream. Luckily, her feet almost recover after 2-3 days.

Nowadays, chalet means 'children play time' to me. Mama and Papa will have to take turn to chase the kid around. Unlike previously, chalet means 'BBQ, games, chit chat, gossips, ghost stories, etc...' Am I old now? The answer is obvious.

There are some photos taken in the chalet and I will post it later.
