Baby Kadon!

Just attended the one month baby shower of one of my really good friend. Veron who gave birth to a baby boy "Kadon" on 1st May. Coincidentally, Tom's younger brother, Dennis and his partner, Jill welcomed the birth of their baby boy "Vincent" on the same day as well :)

*throw confetti in the air*

The parent's Veron & Ken held a celebration down at Aranda country club in Pasir Ris.

Meet Baby KADON
(isn't he adorable!!!! He's suppose to be due on 1 Jun but was a month early. Guess he wanna see the world & his parents sooner)

I was super impressed with this baby pram. Apparently, as quoted by Ken, this baby pram is like a Transformer and can be "transform" into many shape and sizes. Or put it simply, it has many usages. It doesnt come cheap either. At S$2000 or SEK10,000 from Mothercare, it's serious moolas. @@

It's probably the "Bentley" of all baby prams!! The good thing is: It apparently has very good resale value with many parents willing to fork out S$1300-S$1500 for a second hand one.

To Ken==> I know you didnt want me to blog about this expensive "transformer" but i seriously can't get over how expensive the pram is!! And ORANGE? Red or Black will be a better colour. Hope the pram lives up to it's price :)

With Kent
Super cute! The parent took Baby Kadon for a hair cut so he's now totally bald. And they even shaved his eyebrow off. Probably some chinese custom thingy. Don't ask me why.

The whole time when we were there, Baby Kadon was like just sleeping soundly EXCEPT when it's time to change his nappy. He was really crying whilst Veron & her mom frantically change his nappy and fed him his formula milk in 5minutes flat. I say that's really good teamwork.

The final shot before Kadon got woken up from all the camera flashes and started crying really loudly. It was actually quite traumatising to moi to hear a baby crying non-stop. Bleah~

You can practically see his whole lil face scrunching up and turning super red from all the crying.
Which is really heart wrecking.

This reminds me of another thing. Tom mentioned that if he ever have to endure a long flight with a baby who's crying non-stop next to him and the flight is full and he can't change his seat, He will actually demand a compensation from the airline for their failure to provide passengers with a comfortable flight. We actually had this huge debate over this matter. I mean, to me personally, it's not the airline, non the parent's of the baby, non the baby fault. I would just tolerate it and pray hopefully that the baby would stop crying soon. And it's not like the parents did it on purpose. And they are super embarrass already with other passenger throwing dagger looks in their direction. So Tom, just bear with it kaay!!

Anyway, Remember when i mentioned that Tom's younger sister, Lucy is a really fantastic singer? Check out this youtube video of her singing the song "Hurt"

I was totally blown away..especially when moi here can't even hold a tune well. I shan't mention anything about Tom singing. He sux totally. *kidding Tom*

So let's recap... Jasmine writes:

"It was actually quite traumatising to moi to hear a baby crying non-stop. Bleah~" - And this is after a few mins of hearing the baby cry.

Then:
"Tom mentioned that if he ever have to endure a long flight with a baby who's crying non-stop next to him and the flight is full and he can't change his seat, He will actually demand a compensation from the airline for their failure to provide passengers with a comfortable flight."

So a few minutes is traumatizing, but sitting 12 hours next to screaming crying babies after paying thousands of dollars, is not? On a flight where you cant change seat, and can't even leave. (earplugs might work, but then one can't watch movies, but I'd accept a good pair of noise cancelling headphones as compensation ;)

:) The airline chose to accept passengers with babies who cry, they also did not do anything about it (make them pay double and put them in the back/front of the plane behind some walling off etc.

If one flies budget airlines one pay for what one gets, but if one flies a supposed five star airline, one expects, and should demand getting comfort, and not crap ;)
