Met with a lot of people who I don’t normally meet. Spent some good times with my friends. Quality time with Daddy and Mummy. Shopped in sections of the departmental stores I normally won’t venture into. All in all, it was great.

I wasn’t the most comfortable in Sunnyland. Although I have cankles, insomnia and chest tightness thru-out the whole trip, I think the worse part was trying to squat in the kopitiam toilet.

We had so much good food and I really enjoyed myself. For the record, I gained nearly 7kg during that 2 weeks. I don’t think I ate extraordinarily a lot, but I guess the baby is fattening himself up. Part of the weight probably is due to my water retention.

The flight back wasn’t as comfortable but at least it is not as bad as I imagine. It’s great that KL stayed up with me and walk about with me on the plane. I couldn’t stop sobbing in the airport after waving to my family and friends. Up till I board, I was still sobbing with passengers staring at me. I miss them so much already and they are my pillar of support. I kept thinking that the next time when I return, it would all be different. At least I get to see Daddy in about 3 months time and I look forward to that.

Now that I am back home in Melly, my feet is still swollen, my face is still puffy and nothing fits me anymore. I am still waiting to deflate but I don’t know if I will or not. What’s scary is that I am tipping the scale to uncharted waters of 70kg. Never been before. Not too pleased with it though. As long as Baby is growing well with the weight then I guess, I have to live with it.

I know this because, the news kept announcing that its 100 days to the 2008 Olympics. It’s so scary! I want to scream.

Anyway, we went around town and bought a few baby stuff including a swing, seat and his first stuff toy.

Its completely baby safe and machine washable. His name is P’nut. He is really very cute. I’ll be sleeping with P’nut every night from now onwards till Baby is born to “cultivate” my smell.

Wonderful Morning

Missing u so much,
I reach out my hand to hold you, touch u,
Be in your embrace once again.

Wonderful Morning with a Wonderful You!

I’m back here in Sunnyland since Thursday. The weather was pretty alright for the first day but its been so hot and humid lately, my feet is so damn swollen that I have no ankles. I don’t know where the calves ends and the ankles begin.

I’m at my 25th week now and I have been eating very well since I came back 3 days ago. Hence, tummy is a little bigger and will probably gain much more weight here. BS, NL and GL reckons I look different - in the face. I agree I am looking more bloated and puffy in the face. But I think it’s the water retention.

Been taking it easy lately with food and shopping. Although, I have already bought quite a bit of baby clothes and products. Baby stuff here is definitely cheaper and we might get more necessities.

Baby has been behaving himself very well although I still don’t sleep as well at night due to unfamiliar environment and frequent trips to the toilet. It’s very strange how I have been sleeping in the same room and same bed for a long time and now I’m so not used to it. Waking up to go toilet has been so frequent, it’s annoying when it seems like I have a full bladder, I only managed to pee a wee bit.

Met one of KL’s friends at Parkway today and I am very surprised he told him with pride that I’m expecting. It’s such a nice feeling.

Went dinner with BS and NL today at Jumbo Seafood. The food is good and with some discount voucher - damn cheap too. I have to say that my new love is ‘Prawns fried with Salted Eggs’. Best!

Wonder what we going to do tomorrow.

Watermelon and Chocolate combo.

I started with watermelon and chocolate ice cream 2 weeks ago. Then I had kit kat and watermelon combo. Today, I’m back to Watermelon and chocolate with chocolate chip ice cream.

I’m so weird.

Last night I slept with 2 babies tossing and turning in bed - one beside me, the other inside me.

I didn’t catch much sleep.

KL bought converse shoes for the baby. So cute!

He not only bought one, he bought a bigger size in high cut. Still damn cute!

He also has one. Eww… Father and Son matching shoes.

It’s been a long and lonely 16 days without KL. I think that is probably the longest he has ever been away. Thank goodness this is the last overseas trip till the baby comes. *fingers cross*

I have develop true admiration for single mothers. I really don’t know how they do it. Hopefully they have a strong family support to help them or else, strong will power. Especially those pregnant women whose husband is away in the war. Ever wonder about those women during World War I & II? When their husbands get posted out?

It’s going to be ANZAC day this Friday here and instead of commemorating those who die/served during the war, I would like to pray for those strong women who was left behind.

It’s a musical without the cheesiness. I believe it’s all Beatles music. It’s so nice. The music is familiar and the story line blends so smoothly with the music without trying. There is no sudden burst into music sort. It is really quite subtle. The whole show is about 2+ hours.

I’ve also love music from the 70s. I think the Baby loves music too. Since I woke up, I had my itunes really loud and the Baby’s moving a lot. Throughout the movie, he moved whenever there is music. I think he is dancing.

I’m so convinced he is a music lover. He loves especially when there is guitar playing or drums. I think he might be a emo guitarist. I sure hope not a drummer coz I don’t want to imagine him practising his drums.

Might be the hormones but I’m still crying.

It’s honestly such a beautiful movie. I am going to watch it again.
