I feel truly blessed and happy that not only are we having a baby soon, but people have cared enough to gift the baby with all sorts of cool stuff. I had to take pictures and show you the goodies that the baby has received even though (s)he isn’t even […]

On top of spaghetti all covered with cheese
A list of our family’s adventures through this simulated universe. Strangely, this is represented by several methods. Firstly, my thoughts in words and then a host of two-dimensional images configured for the human visible spectrum. Finally the blog itself as a medium of information. Also, sometimes there is cake.
Irfan Takes Atok’s Pictures
As told previously, Irfan likes to use the camera (that is wondrously chimaeraed into the phone by wizards) to take pictures of everything. Some weeks ago, we went to Sitiawan and lo and behold, there was a kenduri at the Seri Manjong stadium that was organized by the new state […]
Continue readingTwenty Eight Weeks
Monday marked the 28th week of the pregnancy. We are now 70% of the way! Another 12 weeks or so to go!! Time seems to just be flying by. The shirt isn’t snug over the belly, but believe me, there’s a pretty big one under there! [[image:28weeksa.jpg:Sila at 28 Weeks:center:0]] […]

YAYYYYYY! I think the snow is over (knock wood)! The daffodils finally bloomed, and our party-crashing lilacs (or hyacinths?) have crashed the party again! Check them out: [[image:spring02.jpg:Cheery daffodils:center:0]] [[image:spring03.jpg:Happy sunny yellow goodness:center:0]] [[image:spring01.jpg:Purple Party People:center:0]] Seriously, the daffodils blooming always makes me smile! 🙂

[[image:toothless_irfan.jpg:Dental entropy?:left:0]]Look who’s lost his first baby tooth… today… on April 11… 2008 Common Era. When the tooth was loose he was concerned with bleeding, but after the tooth fell out in school he didn’t seem too concerned. He was proud of it, even. No blood and pain, he made […]

Irfan the Photographer
Nowadays when eating out, Irfan asks for the phone so he can scamper all over the restaurant being an avant-garde photographer of sorts. He just aims at something he likes and clicks. Next time I’m giving him the phone when we’re out in the park or picnic or balik kampung. […]
Continue readingTwenty Four Weeks on the 24th
I can’t believe it. Four more weeks have passed since the Halfway Mark! We are now 60% of the way there. I think there’s been more progress on the belly in the last four weeks though. What do you think? [[image:24weeks.jpg:Growing Belly:center:0]] I’m feeling pretty good, all things considered. Aches […]

So those of you who romanticize snow, and think it’s cool and stuff, sure it looks pretty until you realize that in order to get out of the house you have to shovel the entire driveway or you’re stuck. Here’s poor Vin, shoveling first a path to the mailbox (so […]

So, seven weeks after the first ultrasound, we are at 21 weeks and 3 days for our next ultrasound. Again, Vin and I do not want to know the gender, so if you can tell from the pictures, don’t tell us!!! 🙂 As of today, (s)he weighs in at 1 […]
Continue readingThe Halfway Mark
I have been a total spaz about blogging lately. I’m so behind on all kinds of entries that I’ve been meaning to write and have been writing in my head. But as you might imagine, Vin and I have been occupied with other things lately. 🙂 Monday February 25th was […]
Continue readingBoy or Girl? DON’T TELL US!
This is Vin’s and my new project. If you can tell the gender, please don’t tell us because we want this to be a surprise, something we will find out after (s)he arrives in the world. Here’s what (s)he looks like as of today (14 weeks and 3 days), and […]
Continue readingPerth – Part 4
It’s now our third day in Perth, and it is one day before EJ and Indra’s wedding. We start off the day when EJ came to pick us up in a rental van. We then drive down to Cottesloe where Hsu and David are staying. [[image:oz45.jpg:EJ and Vin by the […]

After our nice outing, we hung out some more with EJ until he dropped us off at Mei’s place – he was off to the airport to pick up some more people. Can you guess who they might be? 😉 In the evening, Mei, Colin, Vin and I piled into […]

After a good night’s sleep, Vin and I were ready to tackle the first full day in Perth. While poor Mei and Colin had to go to work, EJ picked us up and took us to see the sights. [[image:oz05.jpg:EJ and his car:center:0]] *Note – please mouse over the pictures […]
