It was the 3rd Father's Day that we celebrated since the birth of Alvis baby and the 1st one that Alvis baby actually said "Happy Father's Day" to Hubby clear and loud (last year he was merely 15months old and still couldnt speak in sentences)..
We usually spend the day quite peacefully, quality family time above all.
Woke up in the morning and prepared Alvis baby's lunch and dinner to bring out..
1st stop - To Marine Parade, Hubby's grandpa's place.. Lunch there and we headed out to Parkway Parade to walk around and Alvis baby napped a good 2 hours there. :)
Dinner was arranged at my dad's place.. so after Alvis baby woke up from his nap, we went back to my dad's place.. Dropped by Pine Garden to get a cake for the occasion since Alvis baby likes blowing cake and I was craving for their Triple Layer Chocolate.
Waiting in the car for Mommy.. The shop was so crowded that day..
Playing with his blankie while Daddy snapped away...
OH?
AH!
Stoning.. hee..
Sis had ordered Sarpino and KFC.. we reckoned it was too crowded to eat out and it would be more comfortable to eat at home anyway..
There were 6 of us and we had 2 regular pizzas, 2 medium pizzas, 8 pieces of KFC chicken, popcorn chicken, whipped potato and coleslaw.
As expected, Alvis baby was super excited when he saw the cake and was happily clapping away..
To the 2 most wonderful men + 1 precious boy in my life. <3
That was a tad too much pizza!
But Sarpino's good. :)
With my greatest daddy, lovely sis and my adorable son. <3
I just love Alvis baby's cheeky smiles!
A big THANK YOU to my special Hubby for being such a great dad to Alvis baby. Though I always complain that he shows that he dotes on Alvis too much till he gets a litte out of hand at times, I must say that he is one super daddy. Right before Alvis baby was born, we talked about how both of us should get involved in looking after the child and it's not just a mother's job and responsibility. We also talked about how important it is for father and son to bond. Since day 1, Hubby didn't fail to deliver and I must admit my expectation has always been pretty high.
Since Alvis baby was only less than 2 months old, Hubby learnt to bathe him and we even had a video of his first bath for Alvis baby. Hubby was the first one to carry him after Alvis baby was cleaned right after delivery. Hubby was the one who had helped me at our suite, carrying the baby to me on bed each time I needed to feed. He was the one who stayed right beside me since Day 1, everyday till now (except for his reservist days).
When Alvis baby was still on night feeding, he would wake up each time either to prepare his milk and feed him or help pacify him when I was doing the preparation. During my maternity leave, he would come home right after work and still able to do night-feeding. During our stay with my parents for that few months before we had our own place, he even learnt to prepare Alvis' porridge when I was once hospitalized due to a bad onset of headache. When we had our own place, he would shower Alvis baby on weekends mornings so that I could sleep a little longer and not to mention the sending and fetching to and fro from caregiver's place on his own. Not only had he done his noble part as a father, he also helps out greatly when it comes to housekeeping.
I couldn't ask for more, I know, and I need not ask for more. We have like, the best for us in the world.
Not to forget my greatest dearest dad who has always been the pillar of the family. I hope he will always stand strong, healthy and happy. He is fun loving, humourous, charming, easy-going, modern and understanding. He's the best dad in the world and I may not be able to tell you now in words why I think he is the best but people who knows my dad know that he is the best in the world.
I want to spend each and every single Father's Day with my 2 men of my life.
I am blessed. And I am very thankful for that.
