Prezzies

Yesterday after the party, I stayed at my parent's place till 730pm because CT had to drive all over Singapore to deliver the one month old cake to his relatives who did not come. Then, CT called me later and told me that the army called him last minute to go back and report. So,CT went back in normal clothes, with his slippers on and reported back to camp, while all his peers wore uniform and with the backpack. They all teased him and said,"Wha..you promoted already ah?" Then CT said, "Ya, promoted to civilian."

The army apparently has some kind of screw up in their system and CT's name appears in the letter but not in their computer. So, it was a last minute thing for them to call CT up to camp when their peers were called up much earlier. So, he had an excuse to wear normal clothes to report.

Anyway, I waited for him at my parent's place the whole time. We only managed to eat dinner at about 845pm after we went back.

Here are some of the presents that Caleb received during the party. I really love all the presents because it is useful and practical.



I always wanted the puzzle play mat and I am glad my cousin, shermaine got it for me before I bought it for Caleb. Thanks!

Then there are toys for Caleb too which I have absolutely none for him at the moment. So, that will come in handy. And of course, a baby seat would be useful to allow him to have a good posture.(which my ever-supportive ex-TJC swim mates whom I hardly keep in touch,bought for me as they would always oblige an invitation even if it was very last minute. E.g On my wedding day when I invited them just 2 days before my wedding dinner, and they all readily said ok. And now Caleb's party which I just invited them also 2 days before, and they immediately said they would make it without hesitation. That is the kind of friends I appreciate and love! It's kind of like the Nike slogan, "Just do it." I can't take people like donkeys when invite them, they will say," Er..ee..aw.." Lots of hesitation and will say, "See how", then they would end up not turning up for the invitation.)

Anyway,I can't wait for Caleb to grow up and start playing with all these toys. But at the mean time, just absorbing every minute with him and watching him grow.
