Ever since my last blog...

Weather: Clear, 16°C

Autumn is here...the tree at my doorstep jus turned from green to yellow to red...really beautiful...i might sound silly here...bt all my life in SIN i have oli seen GREEN trees...

It's been a loooong time since i have a post on my blog...wat have i been doing for the past 3 weeks...? i also duno...other than the number of days to the arrival of my baby changes everyday...every thing else seems the same...

Well...y do i suddenly have the urge to blog today? coz my lovely aqua created a new blogskin for me...which i luuuuvvv it! and it manage to kickstart my brains n fingers to start working on the keyboard...

Its really a wonderful "ding" to see my tummy doing the kallang roar every now n then...frm left to right...ole ole ole ole...ole...ole...haha...muz b my hubby crazily tinking abt playing soccer with bb liao...he already bought those rubber balls...n start playing by himself...sometimes i will join him...haha...imagine the silly sight...both of us chasing after the small rubber ball...

Okie...let me flip thru my organizer n see wat i have been up to the past 3 weeks...

Week starting 24th Sept...
Finally received the cheque from insurance company for the payout of our damaged Odyssey...
and decided to buy the black 2001 Mazda MPV which we both like...though there were a few problems here n there...we managed to fix them...afterall its a second hand car...hw good u expect it to be...jus need to change the tires for winter use...
Received the MPV on Friday...n life is finally back to normal...coz the past week without car has been hell...so handicapped and limited...

As usual at my week 33 checkup...doc says the same ting...blood pressure normal...baby is doing fine...normal fetal heartbeat...blah blah blah...

Week starting 1st Oct...
Felt some problems with the car's steering wheel...which kept pulling to the right...went back to dealer...and they ask me to send the car to their mechanic...who diagnosed dat the car needed wheel alignment...so i drop the car there on wed morning and had to take bus n train hm...wat a long way man...took me an hour to reach hm...coz there is no straight bus...i had to take bus to train station den train to downtown...den bus hm...waiting for bus in dat darn cold weather is hell...it made me miss the time i waited for MRT at Tampines Station...holding a piece of tissue wiping my sweat n swearing at the train for taking so long to arrive...Though it oli takes mins for the train to arrive...its enuf for me to melt there...
But still...I really appreciate n realise that the public transport in SIN is really really fantastic & efficient !!!

I'm glad we managed to collect the car in time to attend the first lesson of Birth and Babies 2007 @ Alberta Children's Hospital...its a prenatal lesson which i paid CAD 185...so i definitely cant afford to miss one lesson...
The class consist of 9 couples...all EDD sometime in Nov...though i do not have the last EDD in Nov...i have the smallest tummy there...anyway first lesson was quite informational...we learnt how to differentiate Braxton Hicks n real labor contractions...n wat to bring to hospital...when to go...n warning signs...n the instructor showed us a visual effect of hw the baby will progress thru the pelvic bones to the birth canal n out in tiz world...seems like a long way though...
From wat she says...my baby is in a good position for natural birth...hope he does not play too much with the umblical cord dat tangles ard him so much dat natural birth is out of question...

Weekend went to bottle depot to deposit all the plastic bottles for recycling...finally clear the kitchen area...since it was still early...we went to Sears to shop for sales stuff...n bought a quilt set and mattress pad for mum...

Week starting 8th Oct...
Its Thanksgiving Day! We did not have much of a celebration...since jus the two of us...but i'm glad hubby can be home with me...so we spent the day watching movies and enjoying each other's company...

Tues went for a Budgeting for Baby seminar...learnt abt the practice here on registering baby's birth...getting health insurance and social insurance number (SIN)...and how to apply for govt perks...etc...

Wed went for my Week 35 checkup...as usual...everyting was good...all is normal...but doc sent me for urine test next week...

Thurs as usual...attend Birth and Babies class...watch a birth video which was quite traumatising for me...bt i felt a surge of joy n relieve when i saw the baby was finally out...i wonder wat my birth experience will be...hope i can b like my mum...have a short labor...though doc says there is no scientific proof dat it will be related...

Weekend as always...we went for grocery shopping...
n hubby made me a delicious dish...which was really good considering his first time doing them...Chicken with Sesame n Ginger wine...i love it! He is so talented...even with a recipe i dun tink i can make it...he saw me enjoying it so much...he oli took a bit or two...n let me finish it all...i'm so touched...he say good food leave for baby n me...he will finish the overnite dish...

i always knew he puts us before himself...in everything he does...i know i mentioned too many times liao...bt i have to remind myself how blessed i am...though we have our share of quarrels and arguements...bt i'm confident he is true to me...
sometimes i find him childish also...n nt thoughtful enuf...bt den again...who is perfect...? he never expect so much of me...wat makes me expect more from him when he has given me so much?

Week Starting 15th Oct...(This week !)

As of today...it will be 4 weeks & 1 day to the arrival of God's next greatest creation...my boy...i will also be starting my weekly checkups till labor...
Baby...hang in there alrite...? Week 37 is jus around the corner...Dun b too anxious to see mummy...though mummy is anxious too...so u mus b patient...okie...i know its getting really cramp in there...bt jus endure...mummy is with u...

Wonder hw emy is doing...never see her online over the weekend...is she in labor yet? or baby jayden is born liao?! Emy....jia you! jia you! u can do it!
