Last Saturday, Jhon and I was asked to help nanny my 2 nephews at Explorer Kid, Downtown East. It was actually a birthday party for Shibly's classmate, Ashton. Syihab tagged along so he could play around too.
The reason we had to nanny them was because Bro and SIL had a wedding to attend to at Marina Bay Sands and it clashes with the birthday part and Shibly really wants to attend the party. The last time we were requested to help was a few weeks ago but was just a drop off at GV Katong for a movie birthday party and parents would pick Shibly up. This time, it was not the case.
It was full reign from beginning to the end and it was the first time we went out (not counting under the block) with them without other adults. But I was confident we could handle it. Wah wah.. cheh cheh.. lol
We cabbed there, reached on time and let them play. I knew Shibly would be fine with his friends so we payed extra attention with Syihab. He was in playground heaven. It was our first time there and it was the biggest we've ever been to. Jhon and I took turns watching each boy. At first, I was with Shibly in the party room while Jhon was with monkey Syihab.
Syihab was only mildy interested with the party but really can't blame him. I was getting bored too with parents of kids I dont know so thats why I told Jhon to switch. Hehehe there were no photos taken except for pinata hitting and cake cutting. We were too focused and I was also busy running playing zombie with Syihab.
After more than 2 hours non-stop fun, we finally exited the place. We bought snacks and headed for dinner at the Asli Village. I could tell Syihab was exhausted and within 5 minutes at the table, he was completely K.O.ed. Shibly and I shared Kway teow cockles which he now claimed his favourite type of noodles.
After dinner, we took the bus home. It was a little tiring but fun to see the kids being so happy. Not only that, we know now we can handle 2 kids on our own. I've always known we could because we've always been a good team in everything we do. This just proved it.
