Captivating Esplanade

Yesterday we went to the Esplanade for a late afternoon outing and Ethan sure loved the new sights! There were these cool colourful hanging thingies... kind of like his mobile at home, but a more grown-up verson. Daddy to sat on the grass with him and while they hung out together, the colourful danglies hung just low enough for Ethan to stand up and play with them.

And stand he did! In fact, it was his most stable performance to date - more than 10 seconds per session as he balanced, wiggled, and showed us that the shoes we bought for him were a more than worthy investment.

We spent a long time sitting by the water's edge. Ethan really liked the view and we even ate cotton candy! Someone got his first taste, albeit very tiny, of sweet candy...

It was really nice to have our own little family outing!

What a fabulous day by all! Everyone enjoyed themselves and it was good value for money too: $2 parking + $1 cotton candy + $12 dinner at Marina Square's new Loft food court (great chicken curry mee)! The best thing were the memories of Ethan enjoying his time with the view and these photos capturing his fascination. The beach will be an upcoming destination in the near future...
