We attended
2 weddings on Saturday and Sunday respectively! Both were uniquely beautiful
and the thing with weddings is that, they tend to make me want to get married
again (ok fine to the same person. No la, actually I just want the whole party
thing lah ok haha).
So anyway,
we brought the Frap along to the Saturday’s wedding and I guess that’d be the
last wedding she gets to attend until she fully comprehends the function of a
chair and what a sit-down-dinner means. I mean, really, some things are just not
meant to be together, high heels and on-the-go toddlers for instance.
And so
after a couple sessions of serious dad-toddler pep talk, half a bucket of
tears, and failed bribery smooches (from the Frap! Tsk, that manipulative
little thing!), we managed to sit her down for the duration of a few dishes
served before the whole pep-talk-tears-bribes-sit-down cycle repeated. But I must
say that I am actually quite proud of her, the fact that after understanding
what was required of her, she literally held back her tears and allowed us to
buckle her down on the highchair, and played along with smiles on her face,
until her butts itched again and her undying energy overpowered her to move. Haiks
So yeah, a
good exercise for us parents to discipline our child and for the child to learn
the right social behavior to adopt when in public. I guess both parties are one
step closer to success (which is, oh just another million steps away T_T).
BUT no
matter how good an exercise routine it is, we kinda like our party time to be a little
more… peaceful, you know what I mean? So Sunday’s wedding was just us, adults
sans babies! And it was fun! Eating hands free, mingling with old friends,
socializing with new friends, and posing for pictures! Oh my!
When we
reached my parents’ place to pick up the girls later that night, Oli was sound
asleep and Frappy was having a great time playing with her gong gong, happy as
a lark! So I guess we both did each other a good favor after all :)
