Hello ! blowing the dust off this blogspot. Does anyone even know blogspot right now? Haha Happy Birthday to me! And my son Owen! He is already 7 years old. Time really flies! Today has been a really busy and fulfilling day as today is the first day of graduation at ITE CW and I’m the organizer. 2 sessions held today. First session was so smooth, a huge relief because P attended. And then the second session, although some hiccups here and there, overall still ok. My colleagues still take the time to buy cake for me and celebrated my birthday with me for a short while before heading home. Truly appreciate! My birthday wish was May graduation go smoothly! Hope it will come true. Then we had some pizzas and my husband bought a cake with Mario pictures on it. Basically for my son but I feel that it is really cute and pretty too. Happy birthday Owen! You are a pretty sensible boy now. I hope you will learn more and get better at reading. I love you! ❤️
Today is 6 May 2020! My birthday, my twin’s birthday and my son’s birthday is here! Labels: Birthday
Happy Birthday to all 3 of us!
Today still need to work but at least it’s work from home, which is so much better than working in office.
Now the world and Singapore is fighting Covid-19 virus. ( Right now Singapore cases number is 20K) So there are a lot of restrictions that we cannot do.
1.Like no manufacturing of cakes (first time can’t even buy a cheap decent cake)
2. Different households cannot meet together which means cannot celebrate
Luckily this year is not Owen’s first birthday. At least we properly celebrated his first birthday with a party and beautiful cake.
Updates on my son Owen
Now my boy is running around screaming and shouting (and crying...)
He knows words like
Just now when I was thinking of backup my phone pictures into my hard disk, I started looking at the photos when I was pregnant. The videos of my tummy shifting around when Owen was kicking around in my tummy. The pictures of my ultra swollen feet and face. The pictures of the countless medication that I have to take when pregnant. The pictures when I was admitted into hospital to put under observation for my super high blood pressure. And then my little Owen so skinny and dark in my arms. Videos of him hiccuping. Videos of him crying with that super baby cry voice. Pictures of him giving a toothless grin.
I didn’t notice that I kept going through the pictures until it was 12.30am. So much memories.
How did I manage to brave through all that ? Unbelievable. Can’t help but thought to myself that I’m a super lady. I’m so awesome. :)
As the year 2018 comes to a close, I want to write down here of the eventful events that happened this year. For my own reminder.
This year 2018 has been a very happy year for me. Some ups and downs. But all happy endings!
1. Give birth to my first child Owen
This has got to be the best milestone that I met this year. Had been planning for a baby since last year and I told myself and husband that we are going to have a baby in 2018. Why? Because it’s a huat year and it’s a dog year. So thankfully my wish came true. Was diagnosed with a pregnancy complication called preeclampsia, which resulted in very high blood pressure, which resulted in me needing to go for early c section to deliver baby, which resulted in baby having digestive and temperate regulating issue, which resulted in him staying at NICU for 2 weeks, which resulted in a big hole burnt in our pockets. But all is good. Now he is so chubby and cute. I’m glad I never experience post Partum depression, so I really get to enjoy spending time with baby.
2. Change of job to somewhere super close to my house
I have been wanting to change job for a long long time but didn’t really take action until this year end. It was not really part of my year missions list. But somehow life has to get you moving. I think I’m really really lucky to find an ideal job within such a short time. It’s finally something not related to programming. It’s finally somewhere that is near to where I stay. And I’m so grateful for that. Hopefully I can stay there until I retired. :)
3. Lose weight
This goal has been on my year missions list for so many years. Every year fail. Somehow this year ironically I got to lose weight although I got pregnant this year. I always thought I am those kind who cant lose pregnancy weight after giving birth. But so pleasantly surprised that I managed to lose all the weight gained during pregnancy plus some kilos off my prepregnancy weight. Currently, I have lost 20 kg off my heaviest weight during pregnancy. I’m now about 8 kg lighter than prepregnancy weight. Kind of shocked dao when I looked back to my photo when I’m at my heaviest. So super water retention and fat. And I didn’t work out at all. Just sit and pump milk. Come to think of it. This is quite a good way to lose fats. Hopefully my body works the same when I get pregnant again in future.
I think this is about all.
Merry Christmas! And Happy new year!
Cheers to 2018!
Here’s a photo of my little boy!
Happy 6 months old to my baby Owen!
Hello I finally want to write something over here.
Time is passing so fast. My little boy is already 5 months, going 6 months soon in a week.
I’m totally obsessed with him. I think all parents feel that their babies are the cutest in the world.
Now he is really noisy, keeps playing with his voice. He seems to be experimenting with his voice to see what new sounds he can make. Haha. He likes people to be around him and carries him around. He is still learning how to flip and can put his weight on his feet for a few seconds when we try to let him stand up. Strong baby! Neck is strong now and can lift up when he is on tummy but for a few seconds. He like to grasp things with his hands now and keep grabbing people’s fingers and admire. Maybe he is too bored. Haha
Yesterday I saw him grabbing his ears and touching them. I think he just found his ears. Haha. And his legs are kicking wildly recently when he wants something. I feel that it’s harder to hold on to him when carrying him.
Although everyone say now he is cuter than when he’s born, I’m kind of sad he has grown out of his newborn look. Tiny and fragile, slimmer and darker. His new born clothes are all super tight now. My little boy is growing up so fast. 😢 soon he will be standing up and then walking and running all over the place. I will get slimmer when all the chasing. Haha
I treasure every moments with him now. I hope I will be his most favorite person in the world. And cal me Mama soon!
