3rd Day of our weekend - Penang

Woke up as early as 8am, made Jaden milk since he was tossing and turning and crying and have already woken up SChee, so might as well just wake him up too. On the cartoon channel for him while feeding him and that made him open his eyes wide.

Three of us then adjourned for our breakfast buffet. Mmm.. Its been a while since I last had breakfast. Seriously, breakfast is such a distant memory here for me in KL.









At about 930am, we were done with eating and quickly went up to the room to change into our swimsuits. i was so excited to bring Jaden go swimming.
Alas, after I came out from the bathroom, it was raining. It took about an hour for it to drizzle very lightly. We then took him down to the poolside to change, just in case he catches a cold if he changed in the room as it will be quite a long walk through the corridors to the lift and to the pool and little boys can't be naked for long can they?



The swimming trunk Hubby and I bought for him looked so cute!!! Kai-ma SChee blew the float up for Jaden and together, after changing him into his swimming trunks, we introduced him to the pool slowly by letting him sit in the crabby float at the most shallow area of the pool. -The Stairs. Slowly we pull him to the middle of the pool and started showing him how fun it was but well, since this is his first time in a pool, he was scared. His face were nothing but expressions of stress. *sigh*



After a good 10 minutes in the pool, where he did not show any signs of relaxation, we thought its best to bring him out of the pool and introduce him to the beach instead.
We wiped him dry and wrapped him like a popiah before we walked towards the beach. As soon as his two little feet touched the sand, he then had them wrapped around SChee and clung on to her like a koala bear. End of swimming and beach expedition. Decided its better to bring him back to the room and let him bathe and all. Lets just say he enjoyed himself more in the bathtub than the pool.


After his nice little warm bathtub bath, made him his milk and he drank it till he fell asleep on the bed. Padahal its already checkout time but SChee said nevermind.. so we let him sleep for about an hour or more while we both were busy packing and double checking to see if we have taken everything we brought there back. SChee made a couple of trips to and fro up and down to put the stuff into the car.



After a while, both of us were already hungry monkeys, so we decided we might as well just carry the boy down and let him sleep on the sofa available at Kool Banana Club @ the hotel while we bahamkan lunch! The boy woke up as soon as we hit the restaurant and there he goes, feeling refreshed from nap, he started his exploring while SChee and I ate lunch while keeping an eye on him.



We decided that WeiWei would be very busy entertaining her in-laws, so we left Batu Ferringhi for my home. The boy was still sleepy so by the time we reached my place, he was already yawning and all.. and soon had his little nap again. Mom fed him porridge before he slept off anyway so he wont wake up like 15 minutes later.







Later that evening, we proceeded back to Bukit Tambun and went for my long-awaited Bukit Tambun seafood. We ordered the steamed boiled octupus, sweet & sour baby sotongs, fish cooked in two different style, my lala in ginger and garlic, salted-egg mantis prawn and baked crabs. I had more than the two of my friends there. Just walloping away.. and the best thing is that all these came up to about RM70/Rm80 only. 7 dishes for about RM70/80 but Jeff commented later that it was considered expensive coz at another restaurant, it would have been about RM60++ only.. *sigh* I missed all those good food for such reasonably low priced bills.






Jeffry sent me back to Penang and stayed a while to play with Jaden. Jaden seems to be ok with all my friends it seems.



WeiWei and her husband came and find me at about 1230am after she was done entertaining her in-laws and she actually drove all the way down from Golden Sands to my place and then back to Golden Sands again where the lovebirds checked in for their little beach getaway. I couldn't be more touched than this. Jaden loved them too and insist on playing ball with them while they were @ my place.



They left at about 115 am and well, the boy was so tired from being a host that sleep came easy this time for him while I sat and packed and tried to keep awake for my 645am flight.

Woke Dad up at about 430am and soon, we were out of doors at 445am. Reached the airport at about 5am. They boy was then cranky because of the lack of sleep but well, luckily he behaved this time..




Both of us finally reached home sweet home at 935am and well, what is there to do other than continue sleeping until lunchtime?

It was really a good weekend away....
