We’ve been homebound these past weekends because Gavin has not been well. Even though he appears to be better now, we thought it safer to stay indoors due to the cranky weather. Besides playing with his toys, watching tele and reading, we’ve also started a new activity. DANCING to Chinese hip hop and R&B numbers!
Gavin was so thrilled! We basically just let our bodies sway to the beat. He was happy to wiggle along and he seems to have a decent sense of rhythm. I whirled my hands and he followed. His dad wriggled his legs and he followed. I twirled him around in rock and roll style and he loved it! When he got tired and sat down, he insisted we continue dancing while he tried to jiggle his hands to the music. Ha! It was so fun and we ended up giggling and laughing so much! Actually more than during our regular outings.
I guess we don’t always have to go out every weekend. We can still stay at home, find something interesting to do together and have our family time. Heh! We’ll definitely be dancing together a lot more from now.



Cool! Gavin doing hip hop? You gotta record it down in a clip and show us next time!

Oh! Will Gavin become another R&B or hip hop idol in future?
kekekeke…

DR: I will try to remember…
Ashleigh: I don’t mind leh…but I think by then, the next generation will all be groomed as some idol or another. R&B and hip hop may not be in vogue.

Yup, home can be fun if we have something to do together rather than having to scratch head wondering where to go every time. H/w, we’ve always brought the boy out as he’s usually at home from Mondays to Fridays.
