Mummy & Ivy's birthday....and I miss my hubby

We had a simple celebration of Mummy and Ivy's birthday on Saturday. Actually it's quite in advance as Dear was going away on business trip. We all had lunch out, but dinner was at home followed by a simple cake cutting session. Then after that, it was back home to finish packing up luggage for Dear. As his flight was a late night one, I did not send him to the airport. But gosh, once it was time for bed, I could feel the rush of sadness overcome me!! Boo hoo...I miss my hubby.....:(

Anyway, maybe it's more because this time he has to travel much further and there would be a more significant time difference, hence communication opportunities would not be as easy as when he was in KL. Trying not to countdown too much, just want to get through this week at work first, which will be pretty busy again!

Miss you dar!

Another busy weekend

Seem to find the week passing by faster and faster. This weekend Dear and I went to have a haircut and we also attended our second antenatal class at Mt. A hospital. This session focused on sitting and standing postures, as well as some simple exercises that I could do to improve abdominal, pelvic and calf strength. Then at night, we attended our friend's wedding dinner. Another good time to catch up with our old friends again. They were kidding that at the next person's wedding, they will have to cater a child seat for me and Dear and who knows who else? Ha ha....

Then while shopping today, Dear and I spotted this baby romper which he could not resist buying! Yeh, Dear likes Pikachu and so we thought this romper would just look so cute on our baby next time. So even though the tag says it's for a 1 year old, we still bought it first. As you can see, the top is a hat which is Pikachu's face and actually behind, there's even a tail. He He... Could not help laughing to myself when trying to imagine how baby will look like wearing it :)

In loving memory of Toffy

Well, my second hamster, Toffy died this week on Monday. It did not really come as a surprise to us as she was already looking very old and thin. Despite her old age, she was still a rather active hamster, always eating and also running in the wheel. I was just telling my sis-in-law on Sunday that Toffy's days should be numbered. And then the next day, Toffy died. Dear was the one that discovered her not moving when he came home early from work that day. He realised that she seemed stiff and suspected she was dead and indeed she was. In a way, glad I was not at home at that time it was discovered, as I might feel a bit 'eeky'. Anyway, that leaves us with 2 more hamsters left. Hope they continue to live well like Toffy did.

On another note, the chest of drawers we ordered to put in our baby room was delivered some time this week too. On the weekend, we packed some of the stuff that we have bought so far into the drawers and took the chance to verify what we have against our checklist of baby items needed. Guess we still have quite a bit more on our list to buy!

My Flower Day

Dear Dear sent flowers to my work place this week on the actual day of our 6 year anniversary. Though I ever mentioned about flowers to him some time back, but it already slipped my mind and this took me by surprise! Thanks Dar...for everything! This flower day certainly brightened up my day at work when things have not been going that great at times.

At the end of the week, we also attended our first antenatal class that we signed up at MAH. It's a 6 lesson course on childbirth and the first session was combined session for all the 3 classes held on weekdays and weekends. So there we were, in a seminar room full of expectant mothers and fathers to be. The first session was on nutrition, so quite a useful information session. Though some things I have already read before in books, it still helps to hear tips directly from a nutritionist. After the session, suddenly became more cautious of the food I'm eating. Haha...but sometimes still can't resist temptation to eat a bit more 'unhealthy food'. Anyway, hope the to pick up more tips and antenatal knowledge in the next few sessions.
