Aranda Country Club

Rise & Shine! We went to Geylang's dim sum house to have our brunch. My in-laws also joined us despite the last-minute notification.

I ordered a bowl of porridge for Celest to eat. When the rest of the dishes came, she was eyeing the mango/banana fritters that was placed in front of her. Haha. It was the 'heat' that kept her from pinching the food.

After our brunch, we went back to my in-laws' home where Celest "wolfed" down one bowl of bird nest. Hubby always grumbled that kids are so lucky nowadays, can eat bird nest at such young age. Celest also knew it was good stuff and she will be going back to ah-ma for more.

Since last week, we promised to bring Celest go swimming again which resulted in her saying and nodding her head 'swimming' throughout the whole day.


Today is hubby's cousin, Jasmine's 21st birthday and we are going to her birthday celebration, held at Aranda Country Club. I brought Celest's swimwear and diaper along, hoping she would have a chance to use it.

The unit was just right in front of the Wild Wild Wet. She was eyeing the place enthusiastically and kept saying swimming again. Oh well, her lazy daddy disappointed her again. Brought backwards the promise for 2 weeks in a row. I still think that it's wrong to break a promise to the kids as they WILL remember and be disappointed. If not for the fact that I am in my last trimester, I would have brought her on my own. Guys hiaz!

The place at Aranda looks pretty good and the unit is spacious but I still prefer the Aloha Loyang pool terrace unit (minus the inconvenience). Hopefully, i can still get a unit somewhere for baby's full month celebration.

After settling down, Celest, as usual, started her auto-roaming. At some point, she was fascinated with the pumping of balloons and wanted to pump one on her own manually. Few balloons burst but this did not deter her at all.

Downtown East certainly look more lively now after the revamp. Will find a chance to bring Celest come again during a weekday to explore the place.
