Saturday, we went to XuJiaHui for Joel's 3rd class with MiKids after we stopped for 2 months (and Joel was sick last week). A little improvement this time. Joel didnt cry when we entered the classroom. He didnt cry when the black teacher talk to him. This month, the topics are about Christmas. During this lesson, the mothers had to do up a Christmas tree with pieces of paper (6 semi-circles). Mommy Jo was the fastest to finish making the tree. Haha! I think becoz i'm a designer. (So proud!) ;)
After that, we had breakfast and shopped around XJH before we went to meet Ann, FeiFei & her husband 老Wu for lunch at XTD Afternoon Tea. (Taiwanese 老Wu looks so much like our Singapore friend, Benson. Just that he wears specs.) FeiFei is 5 months pregnant now, and needs Mommy-Baby info from me. So i'm like the expert, huh! ;p
After lunch, we shopped all the way till our dinner appointment at 8pm. We walked sooo much i kept asking FeiFei if she's tired - becoz i was. Haha! We walked to Ann & Elvis' favourite ChangLe Road, then to JuLu Road and FuMing Road. Along the way, we discovered a very cool shop Aegis Co.op. Daddy Elvis just couldnt resist another pair of shoes. (For the record, he didnt buy anything last week. Nothing.) The last destination is to Edison's new shop - Juice. By then, all of us were tired and hungry, so we quickly hopped onto the cabs. Dinner was the yummy BBQ meat back at XJH. Shiok!

Sunday, we went to Gymboree in the afternoon, then to Daddy Elvis' office. It was supposed to be "for a short while"...but as usual, we stayed there for a few hours. We met our Sunday dinner kakis for 元世祖涮羊肉 hotpot. (上海 闵行区, 金汇路463弄28号近吴中路) They serve basically meat balls...but all of them have some ingredients wrapped inside. Some of the balls will give you a surprise too! Eg. salmon roe, cheese. It's VERY YUMMY! (I dont eat mutton but i love this hotpot. However, towards the end...i could taste a little of the "foul mutton smell" from the soup.)
Joel got very excited when he saw the steam coming out from the (very elaborate-looking) pot. He kept shouting and kicking his legs!

joel looks just like a little meat ball! esp in the pic where he is walking behind his papa and both in green.......and he always gives you surprises too..haha...
Joel's boots looks thick and big for him...is it heavy? quite troublesome to wear and bring all these winter clothing around hor...
but Joel's boots looks really cool...and he really looked sooooo cute with the big shoes and big puffy clothings....i am sure alot of passerbys are looking at this cute little handsome boy...:)
actually the kids here mostly wear 5-6 layers whereas Joel only wears 3 layers. Joel considered not bulky liao. keke... ;p
no, the boots are not heavy or big at all. maybe it's the angle of the photo. i wanted to get a bigger size but think it'll be difficult for him to walk...and this size is a bit difficult to put on. i guess becoz their little feet are not so flexible as ours. we wanted to put his jeans inside the boots but it's impossible!!! :( Joel also wore the boots w/o socks. but Sunday, need to wear socks coz it's a Gymboree regulation.
these are UGG boots (same as mine). they're supposed to be worn bare-footed.
