Last night, we had a simple father's day dinner for James. Intially wanted to go Vivo, however we left home too late around 7.30p.m. Thus, decided to settle for AMK hub instead. It coincided with late night shopping event which resulted in horrendous queues at our intended choice of restaurant New York New York. James decided to change his mind and we had dinner at a eatery selling Chinese cuisine instead. Luckily, we could get a convenient seat near the entrance, thus having enough legspace for the pram ( baby chairs were all utilised!)It was mummy's treat, so daddy ordered seafood claypot, mock goose, taiwan's famous sanbei chicken. Jovin got her favourite hot ribena and Jovan happily entertained himself with a bowl and spoon haha! The dishes were rather well-cooked and it catered to our taste buds! James liked it and we managed to enjoy a good dinner with the friendly staff taking a family photo of us. So nice of them :)
Part 2: Bubble Time
We had a great bubble session indoors at our very own bathroom this afternoon! Jovin even dressed herself in her favourite strawberry swimming costume as she was allready to get soaked and wet! James, being the bubble-man, created streams of bubbles in the bathroom as the kids happily jumped and played around with the bubbles. Jovan practically sat on the floor, smudging the bubbles and Jovin made several sneaky attempts on Jovan by blowing and using the bubble machine. Daddy and the 2 kids had a whole whale of fun bubble session which lasted half an hour. Mummy was busy taking videos and photos while trying to shun from the bubble attacks.... Kids just love to get wet and drenched. Moreover, with daddy and mummy's open consent, they really immeresed themselves in a session of bubble time :)
Part 3: Father's Day Dinner for Ah Gong
After our bubble session, we had a a short rest before proceeding for Father's Day dinner celebration for Ah Gong at a food stretch near Thomson Plaza. Parents didn't want us to spend excessively, thus they chose the restaurant themselves. It's one of those average-pricing stores which they usually patronize. To daddy, it's cheap and good and he loves their chicken. We were among the latest as usual, hehe. Food was already served and we saw the whole spread of dishes on the table like salad prawn, kangkong, seafood claypot etc. The dishes flooded almost the entire table! Jovan was cooperative and sat on the high chair throughout. Jovin had her dinner as I fed her with her favourite sweet and sour pork ribs, bean curd etc.
After dinner, we went to nearby Thomson Plaza with no specific agenda but the kids really appreciated the rare opportunity to run and chase one another. Level 2 was very spacious and mum baby sat the kids for us, with my dearest niece's assistance as well. We took some memorable funny shots and I joined in making funny poses and funny faces with them. I always love such family gatherings, especially the kids who are as close as siblings as they meet other almost everyday at my mum's place. Looking forward to our next gathering next months for my nephew's birthday.
James had a series of father's day celebrations and bonding sessions. He truly enjoyed and let himself wild when he was playing bubbles with the kids. His laughter and smiles showed it all. Jovin presented James with a piece of artwork did at school stating Happy Father's Day - From Jovin. Though simple, but it's the thought that counts. He always tells me, he really cherishes such bonding sessions with the kids and seeing them after a hard day at work is the greatest consolation he gets. That's what our little bundles of joy brings us :)
