Darius's Food Review - Rice Cereal/Carrot Puree


Started with An Empty bowl 


Poured Rice cereal and 3 baby spoon of the Cooked carrot puree


Mixed and Twirl until semi- solidified.



The Puree is finally ready to be served to the " King"


Enjoying the Puree but need some warm water to wash down.


The unavoidable MESS


 Give ME MORE !!! and Stop using your Iphone to snap me, Just hold on to the SPOON and FEED ME
That was his message to Mummy " Sigh"


 OK, I need to be more efficient with every single drop of this nice stuff
MESS again~


 It's really Gluey, but superb!
Moustache-ed Me with the Food? 


 Mummy, I'll bite on the Bowl so that you will not take this good stuff away


 Ok, I know I have to be more civilized, BUT can you be QUICK


 That's Better !


 How come it's getting lesser..... and lesser
* Boy, all went into your little round tummy!

Darius Met Giselle

Today there's major renovation on-going @ Grandma Liz' place.
Please do not be shocked but 1x Sink in a bathroom was dislodged and poses alot of worries for all.

HengLip, the filial son (Your Daddy) - Did all the coordination and purchase of the new sink and etc.. Thus he was on 1/2  day being the overall coordinator
1. Coordinate how and where the uncle should drill and install the sink and other accessories
2. Coordinate and " persuade" Grandma Liz to bring you ( big D) for a walk out in the neighbourhood - Kopi tiam and void deck.

So why all the rambles about - Dairus Met Giselle ?

Here is goes:
This is what I understood from Filial Son ( your Daddy), hence if there's any misinterpretation of the real event , please look for the narrator of this event/ messenger - Filial Son ( your daddy)

Apparently, Daddy had to convince Grandma Liz to bring you out for a walk because the drilling and all that sound may " frightened " you. As if! The Darius we know can sleep through anything commotion, but better play safe than sorry.

Grandma Liz brought you to Kopi shop, but that did not last long. Too much hangin out there and smiling to aunties and stall holders is not exactly going to pass the time. Uncle is still drilling. So Grandma Liz and Xiao Gu ( QL) brought you to the void deck stone table and wait and wait and wait..

Guess who drove by? Auntie Eileen * Giselle's Lovely Mummy, for the benefit of other readers

She immediately Said " GO UP to My Mum's place....!!!!"
She called her Mum : Auntie Ma Ma * That's what Isaac calls her, Isaac's Nanny
Oops * Isaac  is Darius Cousin, the closest to his age Just too Much explaining on characters is driving us out of the main topic here!

Eventually, GrandMa Liz could not possibly turn down the wonderful offer. Thus you are up in Auntie Mama's home and that's where you met Giselle * The lovely gal that you have met several times via facebook video

Immediately, Auntie Eileen * Auntie Mama's Daughter and Giselle's Mum made a Wall post on Mummy's FB account of your meet up with Giselle.
Too Bad , Mummy's @ Work and could not be there.

As per Auntie Eileen, you seem to recognize Giselle, as if you have known here. Guess to much of FB video of Giselle.... Geez!

Here's the meet up photos * Sponsored by Xiao GU (QL)! Enjoy... I hope i did a good narration of this meet up with Giselle.





Both of you Looked So Cute together... :)
Auntie Mama Said " Darius 1x Thigh = Giselle 2x thigh."
