Downtown...

We are all ready to SHOP!!!

Leroy with this new soft toy "Jack"


After 6 months, we finally made our "virgin trip"to downtown and apparently this is also mummy's first downtown trip as well as for the past 8 months she hasn't been hanging around Orchard Road (nope...don't be mistaken she ain't a Centrepoint Kid) Poor mummy, eversince both of us grown quite squeezy in her tummy, she couldn't find the energy and strength to window shop at Orchard Road anymore (imagine 1+2=3). Frankly, we wouldn't say she gets to shop now but at least we all took a breather somewhere further than our usual Causeway Point (okie, that's the only shopping mall we ever been to...)

Well, Mummy says bringing both of us out is always a "challenge" (but we overheard her saying it is like going to fight a war!!!) Hmm, afterall preparing two of us for an outing is already a tiring chore for her (last time Daddy use to wait for her to get ready only, now he has to wait for both of us and Mummy...ZzzZZ..) She has to pack our "barang barang" and please bear in mind that its gonna for x2 thus double diapers, double milk bottles, double clothings etc(that's why she is intending to get a new bag which is large enough to accomodate all these stuff during this shopping trip)......Phew, she has to spend at least 1 hour the night before to get ready all these, hey folks this is no joke! When you are all asleep, she is still slogging away with all the chores and work. When you are awake, she is already up cause we are both early birds. Okie, what happen to Daddy? Well well.....he is almost glue to his PSP or vice versa, or was it just about being Mummy's responsibility handling all these.....errr we ain't in any position to comment further folks.

Okie talking about the shopping trip, we manage to hang around Centrepoint (Robinsons is our destination) only! You know, kiddies shopping patience is short and somemore we ain't interested in what the adults are looking for (okie, we don't mind the toys department though..hehee..) During the 2 hours shopping session, Mummy and Daddy managed to complete their intended shopping list (thanks to Grandma whom has to distract us before we cry out boredom) Woww... Mummy says nowadays shopping is not about window shopping, not about browsing and selecting but it is about "target and shoot"...didn't we told you she says this is like a war. No time to waste, No time for "own time own target", she has to plan what she wants to buy, do her homework and research then head down and move on to her targeted object, if it meets what she wants, the task is accomplished. Well, eventually we only manage to get a soft toy which Leroy likes it alot. Lucas ain't so much interested in that except Mummy saw his eyes brighten up when he saw the Lego racing car displaying just behind the soft toy rack (Okie, folks Christtmas is just round the corner...did you get our hint?)

During the shopping session, yes....there were some unforeseen situations...errr.. like Lucas decided to "make big business"... thank god Robinsons has a Baby Changing Room in the store itself and it looks pretty clean so Mummy was thankful that she could utilise the facility.

Finally, we ended our Shopping trip with a late lunch at the Soup Restaurant at Centrepoint. By the time the adults gets to sit down and rest their feet, we are both worn out and tired but we still manage to con some milk out of the adults before we could allow them to take their lunch.

What a day and it is indeed tiring though the trip was only for a short period (maybe tired in the sense of the adults as both of us refuse to sit in the stroller and wants to be carried and that explains why Mummy and Grandma were rubbing Salonpas gel at the end of the day).

We wonder when will there be another trip coming up....(did we saw Mummy raising her white towel as a symbolic meaning of surrender???)
