We’re off to Singapore tomorrow

So please bear with the succeeding posts as I have to finish at least three assignments before the trip.

By the way, this will be our first trip with a toddler in tow so in case you are reading this and have travelled with one, your tips will be super appreciated! (and oh, pardon the shoddy photo )

Manu’s New Buddy

Kelly — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 05:12:51 +0000

We’re going on a five-day vacation to Singapore in two weeks. This will be Manu’s first plane ride, and I am a bit (ok ok maybe a lot!) anxious on how the trip is going to turn out. We have purchased a stroller two months ago in preparation for this trip, but we have barely used it since Manu just wants to play with it. You see, instead of riding on it, he wants to be the one carrying it around. Take note that he does not want anybody touching it when he does this. He gets irritated and cries when he sees mommy, daddy, or yaya touching it. One time, he even threw a fit when his dad tried “assisting” him in pushing the Chicco stroller around ATC. Because of this, we avoided bringing the stroller to the mall, and just let him walk or be carried by the three of us. Of course we couldn’t do without a stroller during our trip, but the daddy already told me that if Manu makes “inarte” because of the stroller, he would just leave it at the hotel. This made me think of buying a harness for the little boy as an alternative to the stroller (well, and also because my mom keeps suggesting it too). I really didn’t want those types that I see in Rustan’s so I requested Gay, my sister in-law, to buy the Eddie Bauer 2-in-1 Harness Buddy for Manu specifically for our upcoming trip. It was available at target.com but since the Target store is only a few blocks away from where my SIL lived, she just purchased it there. A few days after my request, she told me that she was able to buy the last piece and showed it to me via webcam. Here’s a picture of Manu’s new buddy:

I just hope it arrives before our departure. And I hope Manu uses it! Else, pagod-pagod si mommy and daddy
