Movie : Little Einstein
There was some animals we've learnt in Little Einstein. Though he didn't really into with Little Einstein, he still wanted to watch it.

Gross Motor : Playing Ball with Opa
This was the expression after playing the ball with Opa. He's so exhausted and tired, running here and there to get and catch the ball. He drank a lot!

Miscellaneous : Eating Ice Cream

He LOVES ice cream soooo much. He wants to grab the cone by himself. Then he'll ask me get a spoon for him and get the ice cream using the spoon. Funny way to enjoy the ice cream!

He loves the crunchy cone sensation actually.

Fun
*Swimming time*

It's a sunny day..It's the right time to go swimming.

I filled the float. He looked so excited. When I asked whether he wanted to swim, he said yes. So, I just let him playing with the float in the bed. He was so happy.


I prepared all the stuffs and decided Pop would join with him as I still have my period. Then we went to the pool at 2.30 noon. Hot day!! ^^


He refused to take off his shirt. So just let him using it. When he went in the float and he felt there's a water under his feet, suddenly he's crying. That was the time he's getting crying.

When Pop brought him to the middle of the pool, his crying was getting louder. Then, it's over. Swimming time was over and he didn't want to get in anymore.

We stayed for 1,5 hours asking him to swim and he still refused it. -__-"

He was really an extraordinary boy. I think he's the only boy who doesn't like swimming. HUHUHUHUHUHU........

*Playing with Koko*
After I finished with my private student class, Fritz and Pop picked me up. Fritz was so happily playing with these 2 big bro (Koko). They love to play with Fritz also. They had Cars cars and Toy Stories toys. Love to see them playing together.

*Living World*
After playing with 2 Koko, we went to Living World, a new mall near their house in Alam Sutera. We just walked around as there's not much to see. We just went to the stationary shop and a toy shop (Toy Kingdom). Fritz was excited when we've got there. Then I saw these animals in the side of their shop, big jungle creatures. Fritz was so afraid with them. Hahahaha...

*Visiting Popo*
We took a time visiting Popo (Mom from Pop's side). She looked so happy when seeing Fritz. He also showed friendly though we didn't meet each other for a long time. He easily attached with her.

We spent time by going to Carefour at MOI. We needed to buy some groceries for Fritz. We didn't take lot of time there as it was dark already. So we decided to get home.

In the middle of the way, we decided to see a birthday cake. We went through AJ Bakery and Home Made bakery. To be honest, we didn't have enough cash to spend for the cake. I think we're gonna buy the small cake for his b'day later.

Then, we bought our dinner at Aceh's. We ordered Fried Rice for Fritz. He didn't eat lot as he's getting poop after that.

It's quite much fun though just spent for few hours only. Unfortunately, we didn't take any photos.
