Cute Little Wink from our Princess. Day 2, Grace with her chubby look. Birth Story 3rd Sept 2007 4.40pm - We went to Adrian's Clinic, was an impromptu visit as I just wanna check if my water bag was leaking. We had a late lunch at Subway, United Square. 5.00pm - Adrian did a check on my cervix and it is 3cm dilated, Grace still looks so comfortable in my womb sleeping. So we deduced probably, she's not going to come out that night. We were still jokingly saying that we'll see how it goes for the next few days, so I scheduled 7th Sept 2007 for the next appointment. 5.30pm - Left Adrian's clinic, felt a bit of cramps but since I was having periodic contractions, some cramps for the past few days, I felt it was dismissible. Edward said we probably go home that night after dinner at my mom's. I was eager to go home too, as there was an ITQ (online quotation) to be submitted by 2359hrs that night. Have told boss that I will submit, though am already on leave. :( 6.15pm -...

Finally a photo of Seth and his God-sis. This was taken at family lunch gathering last Saturday. We went to Suki Sakura at TPY to celebrate dad's birthday. Seth had fun with his cousins whom he sees only occasionally. So lack of updates lately. Of course, reason being I am too lazy to blog and tell what's happening as I am so sleep deprived, overwhelmed with work (trying to clear and clear), into my 40 weeks of pregnancy is very challenging as I am so heavy now. I can feel so breathless at times..... :( I want to do things, scrap, sew, what have you but the body is weak. God has been good. Comparing to last few weeks, this week I am more fruitful at work, I managed to list down the major outstanding tasks, follow-ups and logged in POs, cleared my tender submission. This list of o/s works will be sent to my boss, will be surrendering my laptop to my boss so he can access my work and emails. It'll be good for me as well as I don't have to burden with work when I am in my ...

It's tiring enough not able to sleep well at night. Worse, kana sore throat and runny nose. :( Sunday was sleepless for me again. So told my boss that I am going on medical leave on Monday. Hoping to rest a bit, clear some of my paperwork at home, (no one in office to disturb me). Alas! My boss was on leave as well yesterday! Customer called me and asked me to do an urgent quote. Then when I launched outlook, there's no turning back liao. Sat on the couch clearing emails, work, quotations, what have you??? =( Aching back, and all, I succumbed to my tiredness at 4pm, went to take a nap. woke up at 5plus, Olive Tree came back home and we went to my mom's. It has become a routine now, that I can't sleep at night, due to to the heavy tummy and constant BH. Turning from right to left is super impossible lest I sit up and then stand up, lie on my left side. Don't know to look forward to birthing or to hope for more time (so as to clear the work in office) ........ Technor...

Seth: {Scratching his buttocks...} Seth: "Jia Lat... Pain Pain." Me: {Shocked and rolling my eyes! (What have he been learning??)} *** For the past week or so, I've been spending time scrapbooking or if not, with Seth. To me, it's precious time to capture his everyday's life and speech which always brings smiles and surprises. He has grown so much! Especially when I see his younger days photos. These days, he speaks so much more and learn to pretend play a lot. He is able to think and construct simple sentences. eg. "mommy, take horse horse." (his rocking horse from the room), "daddy, buy bread." Just yesterday, he starts to tell me, "I love love mommy." AWE!! That truly touches me! It is tough to leave him to even go back to work. Oh btw, I am on leave again. I guess I needed the rest and also have been feeling quite a fair bit of tightening in tummy area. This pregnancy, I become so much sensitive compared to preggy with Seth. Hope ...

20th April, Friday, was our appointment for detailed scan at TMC. We were expecting a longer than usual U/S Scan to get measurements of our baby. When we were inside the room, the radiologist get set to take all measurements and then she said, "Hmmm, it's a female". Both Olive Tree and I thought we heard wrongly, maybe she had uttered, "do you prefer a female?" or something like that. I told the radiologist that previous U/S by our gynae, I saw there was a Penis and maybe a scrotum. She said she will do the scan to confirm again after all the measurements are done. Ok, so the conclusion came after 20 minutes, and she explained to us how come the genitalia was determined as female. She had seen 3 lines (depicts_ labia) So can't be wrong. If it's wrong, then must tell Gynae to let her know.hahaha... Can you imagine how I felt!? Especially when I got the confirmation? Olive Tree were smiling and trying to contain...the joy. Me? I was thinkg, "Oh manz! ...
