Check Up and Night Safari

While in Singapore, I took Brynn her 18 month doctor's checkup a few months late. She is doing great. One thing I thought was funny was the doctor put her weight and height on the US growth chart I brought and she is between the 5th and 10th percentile on both. He then put her on the Asian growth chart and she is between the 50th and 75th percentile. It just goes to show how much bigger we are in the US.

After her doctor's appointment I took her to Build-A-Bear. I was really excited and thought she would love making her own bear. After about five minutes she was not interested in making a bear and she was having more fun touching everything on the shelves. She has warmed up to Pink Bear and now she does everything with us, even eat dinner wearing a bib!


 One night we took Brynn and several student to the Night Safari. The zoo in Singapore is world renowned and the Safari is the only one like it in the world. We started the night off watching a fire show. Brynn was fascinated by it as you can tell from her face in the picture. I could not get her to look at the camera.

This is us on the tram before entering the Safari. You were not allowed to take any pictures of the animals. We saw lions, elephants, rhinos, hippos and all sort of animals. Matt thinks some of them were fake, because they let us get so close to them. It was an amazing experience and we felt like we were on an actual African Safari. We were allowed to walk part of the trail. My least favorite was the bat enclosure. No one believes me, but I promise a bat tried to attack me.
