A fall!!

Guess it was an unfortunate incident and the title says it all. My dear suffered bad abrasions yesterday while taking his last IPPT. Both of his knees apparently gave way while he was doing his shuttle run. There was friction on the floor and there went the skin on his knees. Despite it being surface injuries, it was still a very bad fall. He went to Gleneagles to get his wounds dressed before returning home for dinner.

Got me worried for awhile. Yesterday, I was also suffering from back pain. I told KC, now both of us can't bend down to do stuff just because he didn't take good care of himself. :) Well, hope he recovers well. He is now resting at home.

Talking about rest, today is one of the consultants last day. KW has been with me for 4 years now. One of the longest standing consultants and he has finally decided to take a step out of this particular industry. I wonder when it will be my turn and when it is ever my turn, what's going to happen? A lot of uncertainties for sure.

Well we will take a step at a time. Today's calender reminders mentions that there is no trials and tribulations beyond what we can bear if we share them with our Father as we talk to Him in prayer. John 16.33 I have said this to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulations but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world.

Dearie's Birthday coming up soon

Now the birthday season is here. My grandpa, D's and KC's birthday is coming really soon. I am still clueless of what is to be done on all their special day!!

It's tough every year we have to discover new things but I guess it is good when we do discover new things, it makes life more interesting. We mark the end of an old chapter and open a new chapter, there are many unexpected things that will be occurring. I guess we just have to take a step at a time really.

Tomorrow also marks the last day of K's tenure with us. It has been a long time and you know what, just before he leaves we had a big ordeal...I don't know what happened. But glad things are back to normal or can they ever be?

Well I think it has been a long day and I wanted to type earlier but it has been relatively busy. Got to work hard till we close up the old chapter. May we continue to have the blessings of the Father above!!

A day at work!!

As I enter into the third trimester of my pregnancy, I am starting to feel the stress on my body. It's been really tough on me and my body.

This week alone, everyone has been falling ill and I am not sure why. I try to think positive and not let negative thoughts enter my head so easily. Life has been truly trying and thinking positive sometimes can be quite tough. But I know by God's grace it is definitely possible.

Recently, I have also been experiencing Braxton Hicks pretty often. The tightening of the uterus is quite frequent. But after I walk and rush to the toilet to pee, I guess it becomes better.

I can't wait to see how big the baby has grown. I am really looking forward to the next scan.

Another quiet day!!

Hi there journal, it's the 27th week and baby is kicking non stop. I think baby is very contented as I just had my lunch. I ate junk food today because I was just too tired to think of what to eat and I wanted something quick and easy.

In any case, today, M and A aren't around in office. Only K is in office with me. It's been rather quiet. I guess for the next month, it may be this way? Who knows? I do hope not because I would like to at least maintain our standing now.

Well, I have been keeping updated with news on the arrival of the little one. I can't wait to start my prenatal classes where I will get a massage by my own hubby. Nonetheless, I am very full. Am glad that all is well now in office. We will have to take the case to a next level when it comes down to the stupid girl. Haha...

Alright back to work...Got to finish what I have set out to do.

2nd Year Wedding Anniversary

How boring can a couple get? Keke...Yeah you are right...Yesterday marked the day where we celebrated our wedding anniversary but no pictures were taken. And I told my hubby there goes my dream of putting together a collage with our pictures taken every year.

I was telling my dear, we should just get a photo album to indicate events in our lives where we have speacial meals and we eat them so that we won't have to start wrecking our brains recollecting those memories.

But before we start our little scrap book on our family soon. Here's to mention we went to Gyu Kaku Japanese BBQ at Chijmes for a romantic dinner.

In any case, life has been great throughtout our marriage lives so far. I have had a fantastic journey and am truly bless to have a dear who love me for who I am. Cannot imagine how can anyone put up with my nonsense for so long. And now, we are going to start a family.

This Christmas would be most exciting as we will be celebrating the festives not as a couple but as a family. :) I am elated and excited by this.

Anyway, now marks the time where I have to plan for my dearie's birthday. It's coming up soon...Can't wait really. Another good meal to look forward to as well. I'll be starting the wash of the baby's clothes soon too!!

We will also be buying the basket for the baby as well. Wonder if that is really necessary though. May talk to my hubby abt that again. :)

Another year has passed!! 2nd Year Wedding Anniversay...

That's right!! Everything is on schedule. Before I married my husband, I told him I had a time frame. 26 to marry, 28 to have our first child and 30 to have our second and that will be all.

So far, we are on track!!! I am having my first child in December and God has blessed us with a Christmas Baby. I have this very strong instinct that my little one will be a prodigy. I guess that's what all mothers hope for. But most importantly, I pray he will grow up to be a man of God!!!

Due to religion difference, my husband and I have come to a consensus that we will let our children pick their own religion. Most importantly, we are all happy and have a roof over our head. I would love for them to learn to appreciate the little things in life though they will be born in a blessed family.

I guess our little baby is the best present for our anniversary this year. Though I guess we will still have a good meal. Haha...

In preparation for the arrival of my little prince, we have been shopping and spending non-stop these past few weeks. Recently, we bought the drawers for the nappy for the baby from NTUC.

Similar to the one above but only thing is mine is transparent. Then today, there is this private Isetan Sale for Cardmembers, I bought my scanpan wok, two balmain countour pillows with silica gel, a bolster and bedsheet. The best part is, I also bought the romekins set to make the creme brulee at such a huge discount.

Been spending quite a bit. Should stop shopping to start saving up. Anyway, we are attending Mrs Wong's prenatal classes pretty soon. Hopefully that will keep me pretty occupied.

Looking forward to the day the little one is going to be a part of the family physically. Till then, please keep praying!!!

Things bought for baby at Taka Fair

We bought several things from Taka Fair. Here are some of the things to share. Above is the car seat we decided to buy after much consideration. We thought it was a very versatile seat with a good and sturdy body. It was very comfortable too.

This will also be the first cot that baby will be sitting on. It was a sale and we got a husk filled mattress that was apparently good for the baby's back. It also had teething protection to protect the wood and came with a dangling toy above which we thought would be good to distract baby.

We also thought this would be useful. So we bought this comfortable snuggle nest so that baby can cuddle between the both of us. I hope he would feel comfortable and secure in it. Keke...

The last big ticket item we bought was this combi stroller. What I liked about this stroller was that I had the choice of facing the baby when I pushed the stroller or I could also push the stroller from behind. And the stroller seemed very comfortable. The best part is the colour is very unisex.

Besides all the above, we also did purchase other stuff like softeners, cotton, some toys, baby tub and diaper liners from the taka fair. In total we went there twice to finish our purchases. We were very happy to have gone and thought we made fantastic buys.

I hope baby will be happy with these and would find it comfortable. Now I still have to buy a bassinet before most of the things are purchased.

A roller coaster ride

I disappeared for several weeks and I guess it's about time to update how's life. The title describes it all. It has been a roller coaster ride. Company was in a mess as I was once again disappointed by one of the staff.

I guess it is time to let go and look for greener pastures if there is any out there. I was also warded in the hospital for 4 days due to an asthma attack. The doctor refused to release me and I had to even request for hom leave due to the mess in the company. I have never been so stress before and considering the fact that I had the little one in me, it really made matters a lot of worst.

Subsequently, I went on to rest at home and I found spotting on my panties. It was scary and my gynae talked about placenta seperation. It wasn't fun at all. Anyway went for gynae check up, gynae wanted to give me another MC but I was already covered by my respiratory doctor.

Today, I am back in the office for the very first time, but I am on half day. :) I guess it's about time I relaxed a little and took the ride a lot slower. I hope we can end this all well so I can really take a break to rest. I am so tired from all this running around.

Every day, I pray for a healthy little one and God's hands are upon him. I have received many wonderful news...My primary school friend just delivered a little one and my cell mate's wife just delivered to a little gal too. And I found out my HK friend too just delivered!! All at one time really! It's fantastic news really.

Hopefully all will be smooth for me too. :) God I entrust my life to you!
