Ansley loves to kneel on the floor to play recently! I also
don’t know why he loves to do this recently, but he looks SUPER ADORABLE when
he kneels on the floor.
This little one is super cheeky! Every time I saw this
position, I would rush for the camera…. But when I’m back with the camera, he
would quickly “UN-KNEEL” himself!
So after many… many…. many…. attempts! Finally got a shot!
Ok, I know! Baby kneeling is a common thing! But ISN”T HE
CUTE? Look at the way he kneel! Isn’t he kneeling like a professional?
SO CUTE! I’m simply loving it! So just let me share such a
beautiful moment!

I always have this impression that travelling with a baby is
almost MISSION IMPOSSIBLE! However, after our very first trip with Ansley, it
is actually NOT THAT BAD!
2) A baby friendly environment (Toilet…. Supermarket.… In case you need something, you know you can get it)
3) Car, Taxi, MRT or busses can be easily accessible
FIRST THING FIRST! Location will be the deciding factor for
a lot of things! The Penang trip is like a TEST TRIP to us to check out on
Ansley’s reaction towards plane ride, local food and water and etc…
Tips on selecting destination
1) Keep flight hours within 3 hours or even lesser
(you will never ever know if your baby can take the air pressure)2) A baby friendly environment (Toilet…. Supermarket.… In case you need something, you know you can get it)
3) Car, Taxi, MRT or busses can be easily accessible
That’s why we have chosen Penang, even though Thailand is
also less than 3 hours flight! And we are more confident driving on Penang’s
road as compared to Bangkok.
After you have confirmed, the SECOND THING to consider about
is FOOD! I’m not sure about you, but for me, Ansley only eat HOMECOOKED FOOD,
as I’m afraid of MSG stuffs. SO, we started to check with the hotel if they
have porridge and tried to find some instant food that is filling for toddlers.
THIS STEP IS VERY SUBJECTIVE! If you are okay with outside food, then it will
not be a huge problem.
The THIRD THING is bringing Ansley to the doctor the week
before we fly! The rationale behind it is to ensure that Ansley is fit to
travel and also to get medicines from the doctor in case of emergency! FLU…
FEVER… COUGH…. DIARRHEA…. VOMITTING…. Just take whatever that you can think of!
And the FINAL THING is…. THE PACKING LIST! The kiasu me
split the Packing List into two parts – one to be able to bring on board the
plane and the other one is to be packed into the language…
Things to Pack On Board the Plane
- Clothes
- Diapers
- Insect Repellant
- Sunblock
- Handkerchiefs
- Bib
- Wet Tissue
- Tissue
- Sanitizer
- Milk Bottle
- Water Flask
- LOTS OF SNACKS
Things to Pack Travelling with Toddler
- Toothbrush
- Baby Shower Gel
- Moisturizing Lotion
- 如意油 (if you use it for your baby)
- Medicine
- Nappy Cream
- Baby Washing Detergent (for Ansley’s utensils)
- More Clothes
- More Diapers
- More Handkerchiefs
- More Bibs
- Pillow
- Blanket
- Swimsuit (in case the swimming pool is too
difficult to resist)
- Thermal Flask for Food
- A Tin of Milk Powder
- Utensils
Immediately fill the milk bottle and water flask with water
once you board the plane. As adults, we know that we can swallow saliva when
our ears are blocked due to the plane taking off, but OUR BABY DON’T!
So one of the best way is to constantly feed them with
WATER! Another method of mine is to give them SNACKS! Afraid that TOO MUCH
SNACKS, is BAD FOR HEALTH? You can buy DRIED FRUITS and CUT THEM INTO MINIATURE
SIZE! This way, they might only take two to three big pieces of the snacks, and
the constantly opening of the box can be a form of distraction to them too!
THAT’S ALL I HAVE TO SHARE!
It is definitely not easy to travel with a baby or a
toddler, but it is definitely not that difficult too! I believe the KEYWORD
here is PLANNING!

The building of E&O Hotel is a very classic, clean white
colonial building – REALLY BEAUTIFUL! However, the first thing that caught our eyes is
the beautiful scenic view that is placed right in front of E&O Hotel. It
seems like we are walking to a picture for a holiday!
The check-in procedure is really fast. We head up to our rooms
and the corridor looks so CLASSY! Honestly, I’m starting to really feel like a
royalty!
Okay! I know some of you will be asking what about food?
PENANG IS FAMOUS FOR THEIR FOOD! Shouldn’t you head out to try some?
As long as you are a guest of E&O Hotel, you will be
considered as a Club member, therefore entitled to the CLUB LOUNGE!
Other than the normal breakfast buffet, you can help yourself
with the free flow of finger food from 5pm to 7pm.
Rating: 4.5/5 (Nothing is perfect in the world!)

Over the weekend, Darling went for the Halloween Horror Nights
and bought a lighted horns! And since is Halloween is yesterday, we took out
the horns again! FOR ANSLEY! I would like to show you his cutie pictures!
Ansley, "WHAT'S THAT ON MY HEAD?"
Every time we brought him to the mirror, he will start to
giggle non-stop! SO CUTE!
And of course, there should be candies for HALLOWEEN!
YES, but candies too sweet for toddlers! Replace with TEETH
RING!
What a wonderful Halloween with Ansley!
