*Enchanted*

It was an "Enchanted" weekend for us as we went to catch the latest Disney movie. The last 6 weeks had been antenatal classes for us so it's been quite a long while since we went to watch a movie together. Felt quite happy to be able to chill out together :) Not sure if I will still be watching any movie in the cinema in a long while!

Anyway, the movie Enchanted is worth a watch, especially if you don't mind something light-hearted and feel good. It's quite a typical 'fairytale' story, where they incorporated cartoon animation into real-life acting. The show also had typical singing by the lead characters as if it was in those typical Disney cartoons. Ha Ha... On the whole, I was pretty amused by it and of course, the lovely fairy-tale ending.

We then had dinner at Kenny Rogers...somehow I had a slight craving for the macaroni and cheese side dish, so I felt pretty satisfied after my meal. Hehe... Then on Sunday, we got down to cooking our lunch in. Again, something which we have not done in a long while... so though it was only a simple pasta meal, it was still delicious coz' we both were cooking together.

Here's the lyrics of a song from "Enchanted"...

Weimin & Shihui's Wedding

It was our friend's wedding on Saturday and Dear went to help out Weimin in the morning as one of his 'brothers'. Theirs was quite a different wedding, as they booked a chalet at Aloha Loyang and Shihui was actually picked up from there in the morning. This was followed by a church in the late morning and for the evening, a very informal gathering was organised at the chalet itself! So it was quite a busy day in the end, as Dear and I also attended our last antenatal class before heading to the bbq in the evening. Anyway, congrats Weimin and Shihui!

Good long weekend

This week at work was a short one for me with the Deepavali holiday on Thursday. Wednesday was basically the last working day of the week for me and it felt good to be able to wake up the next morning not having to get ready for work! Anyhow, I went with my parents for dim sum on the public holiday. Suggested to them to try out Yum Cha at Chinatown since we've not been there before. Pretty crowded when we went, but luckily, the queue moved quite fast and we got our table in about 15-20 min. Not too bad place to try out dim sum if you've not been there before :) The food was quite nice and price, well, quite similar to Crystal Jade Kitchen type. That was followed by some shopping around Chinatown area before heading home to rest.

On Friday, I had already planned a leave in advance, so once again, happy that I can sleep in a bit more. Met up with an ex-colleague for a late lunch as she had agreed to lend me her breast pump to try using after I give birth. I'm not ready to buy one yet, so was quite glad I could manage to borrow one to try out before deciding whether when I should invest in a set. Had a good time catching up with her and also getting tips on pregnancy and after birth stuff Thanks Linda! ;)

With that came Saturday and the return of Dear Dear! Woke up quite early in the morning to drive to the airport to pick him up. So happy to see him after 2 long weeks! Good timing that he returned this morning too, as we subsequently proceeded for our monthly gynae checkup after having breakfast together. All is fine with baby as the doc checked through the ultrasound scan. My baby was also seen to be facing down already, so that's good news!

Well, it has certainly been nice to do things with dear dear again....thanks for your gifts from Geneva too Dar... ;) Appreciate it. Now back to another full work week again....

Another weekend without hubby

The week at work went by pretty fast after all with the various tasks on hand to complete. In the mean time, whenever there was opportunity, Dear and I would catch up on the phone and sms each other. With him being 6 hours behind us in Singapore, it was a slight challenge in terms of timing. When it was time for me to sleep, he would still be at his meeting. Nevertheless, absence makes the heart grow fonder! Dar Dar...looking forward to seeing you by end of the week.....

Spent the weekend with my own parents mainly. My dear Mum again came by to help me with some household chores and also joined me in for the antenatal class. The session this week focused on the labour process and pain relief options, plus a walk around the delivery suite. I think it certainly brought back memories for my Mum as I was delivered at Mt. A as well! Hehe...and soon my own child too :)

Back to work tomorrow, but I'm quite happy....because it will be a long weekend for me with a public holiday on Thu and my leave on Friday! Yippee! :P
