We had steamboat dinner at Hey Hey Hotpot Restaurant owned by actor Terence Cao. More food variety than Ju Ju but also cost more :) Has lots of soup variety to choose from... all of us had winter melon soup.

HAVOC celebration by RP ORG staff Part I: Gift Exchange

For the first time in RP that I have a gift exchange with my fellow colleagues... a peek at the event.



Here are my fellow colleagues with their gifts after the exchange.





That's what I bought for Cheryl! She loves cooking and baking. I am satisfied with the gift I bought for her. Hope she likes it too :)
















My gift from Christine - two facial products from The Face Shop. Will use it after I have given birth









Look at the gift Andrea gave to the 3 pregnant ladies here... so cute (KF and I have the exact same one heheheheee)

Logic of MC & woman

"Pregnant woman take MC = it is only normal. For self, for baby. "

"Non pregnant woman take MC = maybe IDLE , KENG"

Calendula


Did some research on skin rashes worst enemy.
One of the best I came across is this: Calendula (The mad skin plant)

Calendula is truly the miracle worker of the skin, whether a person has lumps or bumps, scabs that won’t heal, eczema, athlete’s foot, acne, or even herpes sores. Calendula has been used to treat every skin condition ever dreamed up. It is an all-purpose skin-healing agent. Not surprisingly, wherever calendula grows, it is used to treat the skin.

Not only is calendula a product with a universal endorsement, it has stood the test of time. We are talking about a track record of at least 1,000 years. Even more exciting, it is perfectly safe.

Little pilot's first car


Bought little pilot his first car, Red 'Latio' err...i mean "Latido". Check out the 'SPOON' suspension behind. Hehe
Pros: Sturdy, cheap pricing and hopefully comfort for little pilot.
Cons: Heavier (9kg), bulky and confirm torture for parents putting in and out of car boot.
Conclusion: Little pilot's welfare comes first before parents.
Bought it from Hiap Seng Metal at 15% discount as compared to retail price.

Qing Teng


Cooked 2 big pot of qing teng. 1 pot for in-laws, 1 pot for ourselves....
In-laws side said not sweet enough....my side felt just nice.

Taste bud different?

Baby Car Seats

Had a great afternoon just relaxing by the pool with Jay Jay Okocha. Conincidentally, Bro KT and Nep YQ was there also having some fun themselves.

After witnessing S'pore whipped the helpless Cambodia 5-0, I quickly sped down to Greenwood Ave to pick up wifey from her gathering with her colleagues and ex-boss.

Wifey's ex-boss (JC) took the opportunity to lend us his infant car seat for our little pilot arrival next year.

Enough though I dunno JC very well, but I can sense that he is a very kind and intelligent man. Thank you very much.

Happy soul penning thoughts...

Third December

Today is a special day for my mum... it marks the birth of her only daughter! Yes, today is my birthday.

For the past few days, my husband have been asking me the same question again and again: "What do you want to eat on your birthday?" and my reply is always "Anything. You decide lor"

Even on this special day, when he asked me: "What craving do you have?" I replied: " No craving. Anything also can."

These days, I have been having so many meals a day that I am so scared of food.

In the end we settled for Sakae Sushi at Sun Plaza and guess what, I nearly forgot and wanted to go to Northpoint instead. Thankfully my husband sms-ed me in time and made me become conscious again (This is the job of a husband).

This is pregnancy is for her... :)

My hips are getting bigger?!

Everyday, I would be thinking of what to wear for the following day. This has already killed some of my brain cells. Today I faced another problem... the first pair of maternity clothes I bought from Spring Maternity seems to be "shrinking"... Is it the detergent used or the bb is absorbing the nutrients from me and growing well?

Oh no... seems like the pants will be outcast by me very soon le... I doubt our bb will like to be cramped in that "smaller in size" pants.

Challenge for the next few months: To get clothes that do not "shrink" so easily... and guess what?! bb is only 21 weeks old now...
