to the land of the rising sun?

Jun. 6th, 2003 at 2:55 AM

Banyan Tree Bintan may not be happening.. Instead, hubby is suggesting either a trip to Australia or Japan - without Aidan tho..just the two of us~

Japan sounds so tempting 'coz suaku me have never been there before....decisions, decisions..

_______________________

Foot Reflexology anyone?

Swimming is definitely good for both Aidan & me :) Brought him down to the pool again today..And just like yesterday, after the swim and his meal (@6pm), he will doze off easily and nap till 9+ , have his last meal of the day @10pm and zzz the night away. So, I got the entire evening to myself again...hmm, not sure whether I should encourage this..but I guess I should treasure all the zzz times of his since he will definitely sleep less as he gets older...

He has also learnt how to do a complete flipover - from back to front n front to back. So before he sleeps, I'll see him flopping to his belly..suck his fingers and then to his back , continue sucking his finger and this will go on till he gets tired and settle down in the position of choice..and suck his finger to sleep. I get kinda dizzy watching him do that...

Current Mood: contemplative

Aidan looks bwee-er in this pix, his face is now so round, so cute!

Always wanted to ask you, does Aidan sleep alone in his own room? Has he ever woken up at night and find that he's alone before? Sometimes, Nana will wake up around 10+ and if I'm in the study room or kitchen and she can't see me, she'll cry.

Actually..I think he's lost weight instead of gettin chubbier..He looks more 'adult' like liao..not that cute anymore :(~~

Yeah...Aidan's been sleepin in his room since he was 2 months old. For the first few nights when he slept tru, I always go to his room n check in the middle of the night to see if he's woken up and even now, I tend to sleep abt 2-3am..and will check always check on him before I go to sleep.

What time do u put Nana to sleep everynight(coz u said nana wakes up at 10+)..she sleeps with u guys rite? Diff babies have diff sleeping patterns. My nephew still wakes up abt 2-3 times a night and he's 1 1/2 yrs old now!

He hardly wakes up in the middle of the night at all..and I'd seen him stirring and opening his eyes before (in the dark)..looked ard and proceed to go back to sleep..That's why I consider myself really lucky that he is able to sleep for really long hours -he will usually wake up abt 9/10am in the morn.

Ya, maybe he's sad cos Daddy n Mummy going on holiday without him... should try to bring him along, it'll be fun. No need to bring food since you're breastfeeding him, can do without solids for a while. If you go without him, you'll prob miss him so much u wun really enjoy urself.

If wanna buy cool gadgets, Japan is the place to be at :D
Then again, I read somewhere that if you don't speak Japanese, the people there will kinda ignore you or something if you require any help. *shrugs*

Aussie is nice place~

Brisbane sounds boring. You can do tons of shopping in Sydney! w00t! I'll go to Kyoto or Osaka though, if I were you. Hai~ so lucky.

How long were u at Japan..was it free n easy or tour? All the tours are like 5 days 3 nights only. Sounds really short man..

I dun exactly have tt much moolah (gonna use hubby's money :P) but I've been longing to go Japan for a while..and what's stoppin me before was it's cost. Now that hubby is offering.......~

If you really wanna relax, Banyan Tree or the Maldives might be good.

Tokyo: Akihabara for the hi-tech stuff, and Ginza (a street where you can find lots of fashion brands). And Mac's isn't exactly cheap there!! A meal for 2 will set you back about S$30..

Yeah..I concur. I told hubby that it means we won't b havin a relaxing hol like what was originally planned..but he says it's okay..coz if we'd brought our baby, it wouldn't be very relaxing too hehe..

Yeah..I know Mac's aint cheap but it's supposedly cheaper than the other restaurants/food places. Hopefully, the tour package I get covers food :P~
