Chaos@wedding dinner

I brought Jaden to a wedding dinner two weeks ago and I can totally understand why wedding dinners and kids don't mix. Even before the dinner starts, Jaden was already getting impatient and even the ipad fails to entertain him for long :(

Then there's the issue of soft drinks. As he was still recovering from his awful cough (yes, his cough has returned once again), he was not allowed to have any soft drinks at all. Well, he was upset that everybody at the table has a 'colourful' drink except for him. So he made a huge crying fuss when we refused to give in to his pleas for the soft drink.

Well, all this happen before the dinner started. And when dinner started, he refused to sit down and went wandering outside the ballroom. At one point, I just felt like scooping him up and leave for home. Sigh...

Jaden attended his first wedding dinner when he was about 4 months old. We left after the 3rd dish as he was fussing non-stop. For this latest dinner, we managed to stay till the last course but the fussing this time round was much worse especially during the pre-dinner. In order to keep my cool and remain happy during such events, I would 'ban' Jaden from all wedding dinners unless absolutely necessary.

As for little Lynette, she stayed home with Daddy cos' her bedtime is 8pm and we didn't want to disrupt her routine and frightened her with all the yam-sengs.
