3rd Day Of CNY

We went to Daddy's place for dinner this time. Since Elson had to go back to office to do lots of stuff and Shannen need not go to school today, we decided to take a ride from Elson's car to Daddy's place. It also took me very long to make Shannen wear the dress and she insisted to wear a jacket over her to stop her from crying.

Since many people need to go back to work on 3rd day of CNY, daddy only invite 2nd Uncle & 3rd Uncle (whom grandma is staying with) over for a small gathering. In the previous year, he would invite all the relatives plus friends over and mummy was the only one who do all the stuffs. Not only that, for the beers and red wines were also solely bought by us. No one pay for anything. It cost about 2k plus each year. So we took an opportunity this year, not to ask too many people over. Anyway, there were still some uninvited people who wanna pop by for a free dinner or so.

Dinner ended around 8pm when we volunteer to give 3rd & grandma a ride home. Otherwise they will stand on until don't know what time and mummy will never have some time to rest.

Mummy finally has her "tall" husband from her wish list

This is 4 1/2 inches tall

Do you think you are a security guard?

This is more like it

Adding some gentle touch

Making sure that Peixuan(my cousin) is not out yet

You sure need some gadgets for your business contacts

OMG

Peixuan actually got a shock and went back to the bathroom. After knowing what's going on then she came out and took a picture with daddy. Lolz...

2nd Day Of CNY

We went to FIL's place for dinner. As usual again, Aunty cook so much that we couldn't. Shannen was a little scare at 1st but was alright with company from Chloe. After dinner, it's the same black jack game again.

It took me very long to make Shannen wear this dress. Wanted to let her wear another dress with spaghetti straps, but she just refused and made so much noise.

1st Day of CNY

As usual, SIL came over to 拜年. We had steamboat for dinner again. After which, the adults start playing cards while the kids stay upstairs playing with computer and so on......

It's Confirmed

Yes... It's confirmed that am pregnant. Don't ask me when is the due date, cos my gynae always tell me an earlier due date each time I see him. Here's how the process of the making of Baby _____ (name to be filled be once baby gender is confirmed)

Ovulation date (01.05.2009)
Like the previous pregnancy, we bought the Clear Blue test kit for the making of 2nd Baby. Got the "smiling face" @ the 4th test and we go ahead with the baby making plan


Confirmed Pregnant (01.26.2009)
I was already suspecting that am pregnant cos Shannen has been very sticky to me lately and doesn't want to go to school. She do not allow anyone to bath her, feed her and sleep with her. All she wants is only me. On CNY eve after getting dinner from Burger King, we went to 7-11 to buy some snacks. Saw the Clear Blue Pregnancy test kit. I then decided to buy one and test (since my menses was late for 4 days). Confirmed pregnant!

Our In-House Reunion Dinner

Since Sharlene & Megan couldn't make it, we decided to have our own steamboat dinner @ home. Bought all the foods from Chong Pang market.

Complimentary fish roe from the fish stall I always buy from. There were 4 in total. 2 already in our stomach. The length of the fish roe were about 3/4 of a chopstick. As for the thickness, you gonna see it for yourself in the next pics. Yummy!!!


CYN Clothes For Shannen

Didn't have time to go shopping for CYN new clothes for the whole family. Shannen will be wearing most of her outfits which I bought online, except 1 top which I got it from PA in Genting

Reunion Dinner

We had our reunion dinner earlier this year cos both Megan & Sharlene had to dine-in with their in-laws on Saturday & Sunday. Instead of having steamboat at home, we planned to have it outside this year. We went to Bottle Tree Village cos it left us with a very good impression. Total bill around $270, this include drinks & 10 dishes. Quite cheap for a total of 7 adults, 3 kids & 2 toddlers.






Shannen Draws Me

Shannen took about 3 minutes to draw this picture and I love it!
