Oh My, Hasn’t It Been Ages!!!???

Like the title states – Oh my, it really has been ages since I last updated our blog… So here is a quickish summary of what has been happening so far (if I can remember that is!!)… So pls forgive me, if it turns boring or I miss things out!!

1) Phuket with my family:
Didn’t take much pics cos Ansy (my sis) who is the more proffesional one in this field was snapping away… Still waiting for the pics though! So until then – we’ll just have to wait patiently!

Was a fun, but crazy holiday… Few sicknesses, cries, screams, measles scares from the 2 babies, but overall a relaxing holiday (for me anyways!).

Here’s a pic of the last day of the 2 cousins.. Whilst everyone was busily packing and trying to organise themselves, the 2 cousins were, I think, pretty bored!!!

2) Chloe’s cast is removed:
Yay, after an x-ray, Chloe no longer has to wear the cast anymore… So, goodbye bad-backs (due to carrying her and the cast), plastic bags (in the showers..)…. And hello, independence for Chloe!! She was a bit hesistant to start off with cos I think she was used to all the pampering, but after awhile – she was back to her crawling and crazy/dangerous manouvres!!!

3) Wedding of Ling and Lise:
Fab wedding and lush clothes! Just some snaps for you to see… Didn’t take a camera so no pics of bride and groom! Oops:

4) Baby numero deux (aka Andre) updates:
It’s a boy! and it’s name will be Andre…. Scan showed that I have a low lying placenta (placenta praevia) and the gynae recommended that I travel back to UK earlier…. We had originally booked our tickets for the end of June – but now it’s been changed to the beginning of June… Praying that all will be smooth and it will be a natural delivery rather than under the knife!

Carrying Andre is more of a challenge, compared with that of Chloe… Now with this placenta praevia, there’s not much I am allowed to do (like carrying Chloe, carrying heavy things, exercise…), just in case we set on labour or cause bleeding.. But I suppose, it’s a nice break to just chill out and relax (that’s if I don’t get bored!!!) Other challenges that I face with Andre (and not with Chloe) are the sickness feelings (and when I thought they had disappeared, they are back!), feeling more tired and achy…. I feel bigger with Andre – only cos my clothes ‘tell’ me! I no longer fit into the clothes that I wore up until Chloe’s delivery! And I’m only 23 weeks!! Overall, I have been blessed. Although I may sound as though I am complaining – things with Andre are good!

p.s. the angle of the camera makes me look MUCH bigger!!

5) General:
-Meeting up with frens, relatives, babies just before we set off
-Try to organise our packing
-Entertaining Chloe as she gets more demanding
-Squeeze in as many chinese films (cinema) as possible… I’m a big fan of Donnie Yen at the mo!!
-Trip to Resort World Singapore/casino…. Mama and Hupps tried their luck, whilst Chloe and I chilled out at the hotels and eateries/shops… I must say – it’s not all that! Bit boring really.. Maybe cos it’s not completely finished?!?!?
-Chloe’s first trip to the zoo! It was a rather hot day – and Chloe slept through most of the animals that she recognises! In addition, she was petrified!!!
