Restored


Again, have not been updating my blog many days! ~sigh~. Since the last post I wrote regarding my injured shoulder, I have been trying not to logon to the online when I am at home. Only doing some quick surfing on news and FB. (I found FB more time consuming instead!). Have been trying to sleep earlier nowadays, so obedient on me, unlike Gary!.

With year ending soon, most of my projects have been coming to close soon. With few tasks which needs to be carried over to next year. So far, the bank I am working at is quite ok as of today. We never know what will happen next year. But what I do not there will be some sort of restructuring. I always believe God has a better plan for us - Jeremiah 29:11. Most of us especially in the financial section were quite worried about layoff. Few major banks have initiated such move. Heard that our bank may exercise such move eventhough our company has solid financial performance. Anyway, leave it all to God, no point of worrying too much.

On the lighter note, Emelee already into 21 months. She has really grown up. Alicia taking care of her full time really helps a lot in making sure she establish her daily routine and enforce discipline. Yes, discipline! She starts developing bad habits and characters which warrant spanking! The problem we have was she took really long time to finish her meal. Constant nagging is required to get her finish her food. The other problem was she is really active when she is away from home. In church, she can't sit still and constantly needs to walk everywhere. Sometimes, it is really tiring to look after her.Whatever it is, she is still adorable, no doubt about it :)

Alicia is into her 32 weeks of pregnancy. Her tummy really big kinda going to explode soon! This baby is active during the night, kicking and twisting. Slept till late morning! (I mean my wife!). Last week really had a scared as Alicia was sicked after I was healed. But now she has recovered.


Restoring self


I have been through various agony last week.

Have not been writing quite sometime. I have developed severed shoulder and lower back pain last week. Probably this was caused by spending too much time in front of my notebook both in the office and at home. It also may be due to lack of exercise. When to a Chinese physician and did some massage to "free some blood vessels" and "realign" some of my joints. I am feeling better abeit not completely healed. A half an hour running at the park last Saturday really loosen my stiff muscles but it is painful now.

Beside my back pain, my car also not in good condition. Spent few hundred bucks to change a sensor just because it was bitten by rat(s)!. And that does not resolve the problem, now the electronic control unit seems to developed some problem which cost more than RM2000 to repair. Really suspect Toyota service centre capability. Shall send to workshop specialized in Toyota cars soon for verification.

Then, visited my uncle who is unwell with multiple organ failures in hospital. Seeing so many sicked people really affected and troubled me.

Really need to meditate on Psalm 91!

American Decides

American today will decide to vote their new President of United States of America. Barack Obama seems to be the favourite over John McCain. Whoever he is voted into the office, I pray this person will restore this country to God fearing nation once again. There will be ernomous tasks for the new President, restoring troubled economy and war in Iraq.

My Birthday Dinner


It was raining heavily this evening and the road traffic was really bad. My initial plan to go for pork ribs dinner did not happen! ~sigh~. Anyway, I am not really hungry after I had a huge portion of chicken chop during lunch at our cafeteria. Thought of going to Mid-Valley but not sure what to eat there. At the end, we settle for the nearest restaurant near our residence in Bandar Sri Permaisuri. We tried this newly opened restaurant called Regular Cafe. Food and service wise acceptable but a bit pricey and serving was too small.

Alicia's having grilled honey lamp cutlet

After the dinner, our stomach still not feeling fully stuffed yet and decided to go for dessert at Capri Dessert in Sri Petaling. Traffic as usual, was really bad at Tasik Selatan interchange. And another thing, Emelee broke my glasses! arrghh.... thank God got old specs can still be use.

Emelee Injured her finger


The other day, Emelee had her fingers snapped by book self. She left her finger on the self and at the same time close the book self door. Cried out loud but for a while. She is a tough girl indeed.

HAppy Birthday!!! to myself!

yup, today is my birthday and it will be over in just few minutes.....

CCC Youth Leader's Retreat @PD

A group of 27 youth leaders went to PD recently for a 3D/2N retreat. We rent a double-storey house with 4 rooms. How do we fit in 27 people in a house? Guys have to forgo rooms and beds for the girls. All 12 guys slept in the living hall! We had a great time together, slept together, steamboat together, BBQ together, ate together, worship God together, prayed together ,ehh what else..... Quite tiring though as most of the time we slept after 12am. And of course, most of the activities we planned, esp. going out for supper did not happen. Overall, it's fun to be together as we continue serve Him as a team.Preparing for steamboat feast

BBQing....(last batch chicken wings with "hot peri-peri" flavour)
Earlier, we went to our coming youth camp site - Bayu Beach Resort to inspect the place. And we had our beach activities there.






Natasha's 11th Birthday


Pictures taken last month during Natasha's birthday at Kaki Corner. Below sister-in law Natalie, Natasha and Ashley.

Natasha's grandad & grandma.

Mid-Autumn

Pictures taken during last mid-autumn festival at my residence with our neighbour. It ended up we, adults playing with candles instead.
This little British girl joined us too. Her mom is a model on assignment in Malaysia. She was taken care by Emelee's babysitter.
She is few months younger than Emelee.

Emelee Mickey Mouse Dance

This is Emelee favourite dance posture, especially during Mickey Mouse clubhouse show. She likes mostly the start and ending of the show only. (did not have time to covert to video to be upright)

It's viral infection now


Yes, Emelee had viral infection today. Her feet and hand got reddish rashes. Doctor said it's just viral infection and need not worry too much since she was so active, jumping here and there! Just apply some medicated loction will do.

It's a boy


Brought Alicia to visit gynae today. Baby is healthy and growing normally. And it's a boy, confirmed. Alicia is into her 23rd week of pregnancy. She is fine. We sort of already decided what to name him.

HFMD

Accodring to paedetrician Emelee contracted hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) instead. Sent her for booster (Polio) vaccination today. Doctor said chickenpox usually need at least 2 weeks to recovery. Judging from her speedy recovery from fever (just one day) and minimal rashes, I think the doc may be correct. She weights 9.9 kg :) today.

Today is 17 Sept 2008

Blessed Malaysia Day! Aik! Nothing significant happen leh. Gomen still the same leh. Anwar "got the numbers" Pak Lah said bring it on!. Hehe. Very funny Malaysian politics. Lehman investment bank is bankrupt and ailing AIG stock tumble 50%. Stock market crashes. Really financial carnage! It's just the begining of more financial crisis. The earth is really happening leh! But all is not lost for us - we have Jesus Christ! May the Lord watch over us!

Emelee Turns 19 months


Yes, Emelee turns 19 months on 14 Sept. She is very obedient today and very cute! Alicia quite successful in training her to poo in the toilet. She did it twice yesterday and today. But of course Alicia's patience helps, sitting beside her and teach her how to draw while she "did her business".

Pendatang


Indeed most of us are "pendatang" and we are just here temporary only on this earth. Don't understand what the huh hah about the issue happen in Penang. But of course most of us know it was politically motivated. Pray that our country will continue to enjoy peace and harmony.

Kuda Ranggi gave us a very interesting article on "Antara Pendatang dan Penumpang".

Chicken Pox

Emelee has chicken pox since last Saturday! She developed mild fever last Thurday and got chicken pox once her ferver subsided. Initially she really do not have appetite. Once the chicken pox appears, she became more jovial and starts to eat more. Thank God the rashes just appears more on her buttock and not on her face.

Lethargic


Not sure why, have been quiet tiring lately. Probably too many things happens, day in day out. I think I need a holiday! I meant a holiday where I can sleep most of the time; not that I need to shop around the town or strenuous outdoor activities. Any recommendation? Well, maybe next month; after my project completes its first phase.

Went back to Seremban last Sunday after church service to see my new born nephew. Shall upload photo later. Kinda cute and looks more of his father. Also, "lepak" with my dad at Seremban 2 Foodtiam cafe, or it's air-cond food court! Seremban people also caught up with the trend of surfing Internet at cafe's free Wi-Fi Internet access. The atmosphere kinda similar to Old Town in KL, but the food prices here reasonable and tasty. Then brought my dad for a hair-cut after hearing my mom mumbling about his untidy long hair LOL. Overall, quite an enjoyable Sunday abeit tired body. Also reminds me that I need to spend more time with my parents occasionally.

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!


Hehe, can think of what to write. Just came back from office few hours ago and thank God my project implemented smoothly. Will know the actual results coming Monday. ~sob~ have to work on Monday, public holiday.

This year National day really, really quiet. It seems like a non event for the country. Probably we all already used to sensational news like "soto mee", corruption, robbery, murder, rape and on and on. All these national issues drawn away the joy of independence of the nation. I do not know about you, but I really felt National day celebration seems like dying away. It could be I am no longer in school where we were asked to participate quite a number of activities. Pray that God will continue to bless our country, peace and of course revival upon this land.

Happy holiday folks. Will go back to Seremban to visit my newest nephew!.

SCB Merdeka Fund Walk 2008


The whole family did a good cause this morning. Both Alicia and Emelee joined the 5 km walk from Padang Merbuk, all the way to Bank Negara, Dataran Merdeka, Railway station, national mosque and lake garden. Initial I was quite worried about Alicia since she was pregnant. Thank God she is alright, abeit tiring legs. We really have a morning walk for the entire family.

P-715 CG Gathering and Ps. Michael Birthday


I know this post a bit late. But it's better than never right? Few of us gathered at my apartment last Friday since our cg host went for a holiday. Also, to celebrate Pastor Michael birthday (his birthday is on 14 Aug). Initially I thought we may not have enough food, it turns out we have more than enough for everyone's stomach, including for my little Emelee and Alicia. And of course, we have over eaten when we include "durians" courtesy of Marie (we gave away some to the guards and someone "ta pao" it).

One World One Dream


Wow, the Beijing 2008 Olympic opening ceremony was really awesome indeed. It's already almost 2 weeks since the opening ceremony. Not able to catch most of the event, just watch some of my favourite sports highlights i.e. swimming, diving, gymnastic and running. Congratulations to Lee Chong Wei for doing our country proud by producing our country first silver medal after many years (i think 12 years). Now we shall call him Datuk Lee Chong Wei as he will be conferred a datukship. Sound very old for him :). And he is RM300k richer and monthly RM3000 pension.

Welcome to the world!

My youngest sister just gave birth to a baby boy this afternoon. This is her third child, first was a boy and second a girl. My mom will be helping her during her confinement period. May visit her this weekend. Thank God mother and child is healthy.

Growing up

I have not been writing about Emelee recently. I kinda lost track on what I have or not written about her. My apology if I have repeated what I have written before.

Emele is 18 month old now. We shall be sending her for her for 1st booster vaccination. We have skipped her chicken pox vaccination which we think is not necessary. Nowadays there are so many types of vaccination (5-in one, 6-in one) which obviously shows the advancement of our medical science. But do we really need all these? Poor Emelee, she will be poke by needle tomorrow. She has been able to take it quite well previously with a short cry of pain. Probably she is not aware at that time. Not too sure tomorrow though. The last jab she took was 5 months ago. She has been losing a bit of weight recently due to her poor appetite.

Emelee really had a good time when her cousins were around for a short stay in Malaysia. They have left for Shanghai since last weekend. When they left, she notices our home is quieter but she is beginning to adapt to it. And now she is very well aware of the direction to the playground and swimming pool which she starts asking me to bring her to almost everyday.

About our junior, Alicia had her pre-natal check-up at HUKM last Tuesday. This is the first check-up at HUKM since the last time when she was pregnant with Emelee. Same routine/procedures and it can be improve better if the doctors were to inculcate more sense of urgency - you know what I am saying lah! Next week will bring her to the government clinic and subsequently to private clinic next month. Sounds confusing? Yes, me too. She has been having check-up at government, HUKM and private clinics! And the outcome of her recent ultrasound results - the doctor said got "pistol" (gun), so 70-80% is ?? you guess. Whatever, pray both of them stay healthy, that's more important than to know the gender of the baby.

Anwar's Sodomy - Part 2


It will be a dark day tomorrow. Anwar Ibrahim will be charge in court tomorrow. Malaysia international reputation will be at stake when news published about this case. We really need to (or must) pray for this nation, a nation in distress. Read Anwar press statement here. Regardless its outcome on tomorrow's or future court procedings, we pray the truth will prevail and God's hand will be upon every circumstance.

Blessed 10th Wedding Anniversary


Last Friday took a day off and went back to Seremban to witness my sis-in-law 10th wedding anniversary and reaffirmation of their marriage covenant. This was the same church they made their vows 10 years ago. I was really occupied by Emelee running everywhere. Thereafter, have a sumptious lunch at Restaurant Ming Kok. Great fellowship with Wesley Methodist church Pastor Rev.Paul Christie and good food of course. We also stayed a night at Port Dickson. Shall post more pics of Emelee on next post.

Farewell Sister Yit Lan


Yesterday Sister Yit Lan when home with our Lord at 4:00am and attends her wake service at night. The sheer number of people presence shows the testimony of the good deeds and the lives that our Sister Yit Lan has touched.

Senior Pastor, Rev. Lawrence Yap shared about the "Gain" we as Christian will gained when we died -(1. Increadible life 2. Eternal life 3. Glorious home 4. Perfection). It was indeed comforting not only to the bereave family, but also an encouragement to all of us.

I didn't know the last time I saw her with her daughter Jingle at Tasik Sri Permaisuri park months ago will be the last time we ever met. Sister Yit Lan was indeed very passionate and committed about God's work. She has involved in many missions related works. Close to two years ago, she lead a group of youth to orang asli (orang asal) settlement in Raub, Pahang. I remembered in the car, we chat about her past experiences as a teacher in Jerantut. Also prior leaving to Raub, she has a difficult customer that made her lost few thousand ringgit. But that does not perturb her continue to join the youth for the mission trip. Of course, she shares a lot about her past mission trips experience. Although some of us complaint about the difficulties for the Raub mission trip, according to her, there are tougher ones. e.g Cambodia.

Now, boys, just settle down


Brave New World
By AZMI SHAROM, THE STAR

The teacher has to rein in the unruly few or the lesson cannot start and the whole class, nay, even school, will suffer.

GOOD morning, boys. Good morning. Settle down, settle down. Now, it’s been a tough couple of weeks for us and as your class teacher, I think we should go over a few things.

We have been the premier school in the country for the past 50 years, but a few unpleasant incidents recently have put that position at risk.

If we don’t get our act together, we may lose our hallowed position.

Therefore, before we begin our history lesson, there are a few matters I would like to discuss with you.

First off, our head prefect, Mr Hamid, can you stand up, please? Well, it seems that you have ...

You there, yes, you, the boy at the back. Can you please stop making that obscene gesture with your hands? No, you can’t say you are just tapping your right hand with your left. That is an obscene gesture. Keep it up and I’ll give you six strokes.

Now, where was I? Oh yes, Mr Hamid. It seems that you caused a massive traffic jam at the school gates. Your prefects were stopping everybody and checking their badges and their bags. Do you realise that you caused a great deal of problems?

Boys were late to class and even teachers were late because of your overzealous behaviour. Mr Tan the Maths master was furious because half his class missed their calculus exam.

What did you say? You were concerned about the security of the school because you thought our rival school was going to cause trouble at your prefects’ meeting? And where, pray tell, did you get this intelligence?

Oh, you heard it on the grapevine? Well, the next time you choose to listen to plants, please check with me first before you go disrupting our school day.

Second on the list is our debating team. Gentlemen, please join me in a round of applause for the hard work of our team captain, Mr Chik.

He put up a courageous display against a debater who had miles more experience than him. Bravo, Mr Chik, a brave effort indeed.

Brave but futile, I’m afraid. Mr Chik, I have spoken to the debate master and he told me that you hardly did any research.

Listen, my boy, you can’t beat the opposition by making personal attacks on their past.

You have to put over your point clearly; otherwise you’ll just look foolish.

And one more thing; for the next debate, please bring a handkerchief.

All right, now it is time to discuss some academic matters. I have just marked your General Paper test and I was quite shocked with some of your answers.

Mr Ibrahim, stand up, please. Young man, I read your essay on government scholarships and it was very passionate and fiery but you can’t just make things up.

There is nowhere in the Constitution that says that all scholarships are reserved for Malays.

It says that reservations of a proportion of scholarships for Malays may be made by the King. It does not say every single sen is for one group or another.

Don’t argue with me, boy! You got it all wrong. All you have to do is read the blinking thing.

What do you mean you did read it? What did you see exactly when you read it?

Perhaps I should send you to the school nurse. I think you need glasses.

One last thing; as you all know, half the boys in this school stay in the hostel.

It has come to my attention that the day boys have been teasing the hostel boys by questioning, how can I put it, their ... manliness.

This behaviour has got to stop. It is childish and undignified. It also reflects an obsession with matters sexual that borders on the unhealthy.

The next time you get the urge to speculate about another person’s private life, may I suggest you play some rugby and let the exertions raise your minds from the gutter?

Very well then, I trust the events of the past few weeks have taught you all a lesson and the debacles that have so embarrassed us will not be repeated.

We can now begin our history lesson. Would you be so kind as to take out your textbooks and turn to page ...

For the last time, boy, stop making that gesture! You have had your warning, and seeing as how you are too uncouth to show the slightest bit of remorse and repentance, I shall see you after class.

Let’s see whether you can keep doing that with your hands once I’ve caned them raw.

Now, where was I? Oh yes, please open your books to page 46 ...

Dr Azmi Sharom is a law teacher.

Joy of Parenting

Many of us do not realize the joy of becoming a parent until we became one. Confused? Just one to share little bit on being a father. Being a father is a gradual journey of learning to become familiarised with the demands and joys of a new family role. Though I always heard many father or mother complaining about the daunting task of raising up a child. Yes, it's especially nowadays with the ever high cost of living and not forgetting the high expectation from us as parents.

God does not give us children to rob us our joy. In Psalm 127:3 "Children are a gift from the Lord: they are real blessing". What we really need are wisdoms from God in leading us to be a better parent. I really thank God that we were blessed with Emelee. Little I realize she is already 17 months plus. She is getting smarter and sometimes very obedient to our instructions. Of course there are times when she became mischievous Getting home and take her for a slow walk around the swimming pool or playground really satisfying. Changing diaper, bathing her are wonderful moments.

As for my wife, Alicia, her tummy beginning to bloat! She still has good appetite. Drank lots of milk every night and sometimes request for supper. I think I have a vital role to offer emotional support to her just like what I did during her first pregnancy.

D24 Anyone?


Bought two pieces D24 durian today after Sunday church service. If I am not wrong, this may be the first time I bought durian by myself. Most of the time, it's either my mom or others who bought it. And I always do not have guts to buy it, yes! I am afraid of being conned. When I was young, my dad likes to buy durian for us to enjoy and also sometimes together with a whole sack of mangosteen. My dad doesn't really fancy durian and he is good in getting a quality ones. He just satisfied with the joyful moment of us siblings grabbing each pieces of the delicious durian. Instead, my mom was a durian fanatic. She can eat durian for the whole day in whatever ways - yes, durian rice, durian dessert ..... not for me though.

Emelee was first so excited the moment she saw the durian. She quickly go and grab it without realizing those pricky torns. And she immediately retreat the moment she knew it is painful! (by now you may think this daddy is terrible). No, I just want her to feel the "King of Fruit"! However, we did not let her eat. Surprisingly, these two durian is delicious! Not bad for a first timer. Probably I overheard the tips from my dad - shake-shake it and smell it.

Going Full Time


My sis-in-law ventured into curtain business again after 2 years hiatus to take care her daughter and son. Her new shop called Paragon Furnishing is at Desa Pandan, Cheras and just next to her relative lighting shop. Probably she missed the excitement of business offers. I pray her business will prosper and God's provision and guidance upon her. Pictures below was taken at her shop. Emelee is with a little girl babysitted by Uncle and Auntie Yap (Alicia's Friday cell group host).

Alicia in fact will be taking care of Emelee beginning September this year. Probably this is God's timing for her since the company she worked with is not doing well and shall cease business soon. I personally think this is good move to ensure our kids are brought up in a proper environment and I have always encouraged her to take this step. Of course financially it will put some pressure on me initially, but I always believe, if it is God's will, He will guide and lead us. Emelee has grown up and she really needs someone to nurture her character. She is kind of rebellious at times but at the same time adorable. ~sigh~

Under Maintenance


I am getting bored with the earlier layout. Hence, I was trying to change the layout. Meanwhile, please ignore the tab above as it leads you to geckoandfly.com. You can also download free layout for your own blog at this site. Hope I can put back those pics link soonest.

2nd Trimester


Alicia is entering into 2nd trimester (12 weeks) of her pregnancy. Her morning sickness like vomiting in the morning is slowly tapering off. But she can really eat, some how it has spill over effect on me as I too join her eating non-stop, supper and etc. hmm... guess have to watch closely on my diet. Emelee knows how to speak daddy, mummy, "ko-ko" brother, "che-che" sister, quite well now. She kinda obedient so far and of course sometimes mischievious. We also sometimes train her "poo" at the toilet bowl (see pic below) in the morning!

Not Again!


Never been experience before our country loaded with so many rubbish news and saga. It really makes me puke. News nowadays is getting so nasty. But what to do, that's politics, dirty politics. Meanwhile, we as normal citizen have to fend ourselves with the impending an unavoidable financial tsunami that going to hit us very soon. With all this, I trust our Lord Jesus Christ will help us in facing these catastrophes. And usually in time of crises, people will drawn nearer to God. Emelee has flu and light cough yesterday. She vomitted most of her milk and some solid food before she goes to sleep. I think she really relieved once vomitted. Poor me have to clean up all the mess. Thank God she was alright today, with no sign of flu or coughing anymore. She really has a very good antibody. Here is one photo taken at Alfred and Yook Ling's house sometime during Chinese New Year. Look at Emelee, just after 1 year old. So cute!

HE GOT AN A+ FOR THIS DISSERTATION!


I have read this from Zorro-Unmasked blog and would like to share it here.

The following is an actual question given on University of Washington chemistry mid term.
The answer by one student was so 'profound' that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well:

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume
of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, and then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over. So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,' and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting, 'Oh my God.'

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+.

Good News

I have not been writing very consistently this month. These two months have been quite hectic for me. Sometimes I slept very late, you must be thinking I m watching football! No, sometimes I did testing at home for our company security stuff. Besides, as I mentioned earlier, I've also attended many functions. My pocket also drained up a lot.

There have been many comments & argument about increase in fuel prices. There are so many interesting blogs that gives us a different perspective, one that you won't find in our daily newspaper or mainstream newspaper. One that gives constructive analysis was http://kickdefella.wordpress.com/. The other interesting blog is of course www.chedet.com, our former PM, which was blocked by Blogger.com earlier on suspicion being spammed.

On Emelee front, she has been growing up quite well. She has emotions, occasionally throw tantrums, especially when she was tired, like to climb the sofa, playing peek-a-boo with us. Also she knows how to fix the entire wooden puzzle (12 pieces) we bought for her within a week, brilliant! Of course, she needs encouragement, we have to clap our hands and she also clap her ~sigh~. Really thank God she has been keeping up well though we have been travelling outstation almost every weekend. So much so that last Sunday all of us slept until almost 10am! Size wise, I think she will be no different from us! Though she is quite small in size, but she is quite though. Sometimes looking at her after a tiring and frustated day back from work really sooth my feeling. I wish I can come home earlier to fetch her from babysitter as I have been staying late in the office quite often these days.

And yes, what is the good news about I have wrote earlier? Some of you may have already know. We have another junior on the way! Alicia was pregnant for about less than 11 weeks. We were excited but somehow the feeling was not intense as the first baby. We are truly glad God has again promised us with this precious life. This baby can really eat, or I should have said Alicia can really eat! She has to drink milk every night and ate a lot. Sometime I got to go out to pack food for her even after we have our dinner. geeee... I can imagine her body size in month’s time; also, I have to watch out mine too. She also can vomit easily when she brush her teeth and can't sleep well at night but sleeps like a pig in the morning, hehehe. There was so much different in conceiving this baby compared with Emelee.
