Cousin Eunice's Wedding Dinner

The following day was my Cousin Eunice's wedding banquet at the Hotel Intercontinental at Bugis.

Dressing up Ethan was not easy as he does not like to wear long sleeve shirt and pant. He keep telling me 'Mummy not nice, not nice.' After some struggling and help from my help, finally he is done.



Tadah!



My bb and me.

The ballroom at the Hotel Intercontinental was very grand and beautiful. The wedding favour were these heart shaped container which had sweets in them.



The cute wedding favours.

Naturally these boxes on the table attracted Ethan. The moment he sat down at the table, he quickly grab 1 of them and open up the cover with ease. And out dropped all the sweets and he went "wow". We had to quickly hide the sweets from him. He knew that if he ask politely he can get away with 1 or 2 of them. So he goes " Mummy, can i have some please?" How can you reject him when he ask so sweetly, right? So the daddy ask him to close his eyes and make a wish for the sweets to appear back in the box. It was so cute seeing him making a wish.

He found a new toy.

Still wishing...

We also found out that he likes to eat another kind of vegetable. Broccoli. Normally we will cut it into very small pieces to mix with his rice or porridge. He surprise us by taking a big piece from my mum's plate and try to eat it. And he really likes it. And it make me a happy mother seeing my son eat vegetables.

Cousin Eunice's Church Wedding.

Last Saturday, we had to wake Ethan up early to attend my Cousin Eunice's church wedding about 9am. Normally he sleeps till 10-10.30am. We were a bit worried that he would be grouchy through out the day but to our surprise he was not at all. He was all smiles and bubbly.


 Once we reached the church, he was running around looking for his grandparents and happily took photo with them.

Exploring the bibles books.

It was his 2nd church wedding, his 1st one was when he was only like 6 months old. So now that he is 23 months, he more aware of things going on or happening around him. As you know church wedding can be boring for kids, we were prepared to bring him out when he gets restless. But he kept himself busy with moving the bibles in and out of the pews, sliding them left to right, right to left for a good 15mins. After that he was looking for other entertainment, his uncle, my bro. He was always looking for my bro when he is around because he want to play with his iPhone. And this sweet uncle has a special folder where he keeps all the children application just for him. And that keep him busy for a while before the worship starts.

Enjoying the worship.



The ET Family.

I'm so glad we survived through the ceremony without any major breakdown from Ethan. In fact he did enjoy the worship part. After the reception, we were all tired and decided to go home. Ethan was so tired that he fell asleep almost immediately as the car move off.
