Shopping for new year clothes

First of all I will like to share with all that I've got a new phone!!! Which means, I will be able to snap more photos on the go and post it here!

Yesterday the whole gang (includes kiat, his sis's family and his mum) went shopping together after my work. The whole bunch of us spent about 3 hours in Orchard OG. As usual, the females enjoy the shopping, the kids enjoy treating the whole 3-4 levels of retail space as their playground while the men get all frustrated and exhausted babysitting the kids. Poor Kiat spent the whole time chasing after Declan and putting up with Dec's struggle to break free from his grasps. I know it was very tiring for him but no choice we have to get the shopping done. This year's new year is exceptionally early and we have not bought any new year clothes yet.

Wanna see what my little monster did throughout the 3 hrs? Here you go :

hmm don't understand why all toddlers like to hide under the clothes racks..

there was a point where I think Dec got really tired of running around and he just went "orh orh" (sleep) and lied down on the floor and started rolling around... It was quite a funny sight

He really knows how to make himself comfortable.. while taking a sip from his magmag cup, instead of standing or sitting on the floor while drinking, he choose a rack which height was just right for him to rest his butt on.

At the end of 3 hours my acquisitions are as shown :

3 pair of pants, 1 t-shirt, 1 shirt and a pair of shoes for Dec. It's extremely difficult to buy nice clothes for little boys... Pretty clothes are everywhere for little girls but for boys.. it's always the boring looking stuffs... I was quite glad to be able to hunt down these pieces for him. The pair of cargo pants and white bermudas was a steal as they only cost $7.90 each!!! and we got the rest at 20% off the retail price. The pair of shoes was a "pushy buy"... We tried it on for Dec and he refused to let it go.. so no choice.. gotta pay for it...

Throughout the 3 hours we only manage to hunt down clothes for Declan, I was fortunate to find a piece of jacket at only $19.90!

Poor Kiat didn't get anything except aches all over his body for babysitting Dec. MIL got a bonia handbag and Sil bought some clothes for her children too.

We manage to get 2 OG member cards from all the shopping. Not too bad yah?? hmmm I will gear up more this weekend to start hunting for Kiat and my clothes. Otherwise we will have a handsome baby with sloppy parents on CNY.

wahhh KY ur eyes so sharp ah?? Yes he is. Actually I bought a pair of clarks for him quite sometime back. but because Clarks is expensive and I want to keep it for new year, the kiasu me actually bought 2 sizes bigger. :p Up till now it's still too big for him so no choice gotta get him another pair to tide over this period until his feet grow to the size to fit the clarks :p
