Today marks 2 years and 2 months since Emelee was born. It's has been an exciting and learning journey for both Alicia and me. Some of you must be wondering why I didn't update this blog and I don't be surprise when time comes, no one will read this blog at all due to its inconsistent frequency of updates. Time nowadays seems to be quite tight for me. I won't say there is no time (that's an excuse). I have been trying to keep my hands off the computer at night else I will be staying up to wee hours. Anyway, the arrival of our son Weslee into this family changed the whole family routine. After coming back from work, making sure Emelee drank her milk, brush her teeth, cleaning up and change to her pyjamas, read stories, prayed with her and let her sleep are part of my daily routine (although sometimes skipped!). Chating with Weslee with his cuckoo smiles wraps up most of the evening. By this time, I am already too tired and need some rest. Alright, that's enough of my ranting.
Can really update all the happening in the first quarter of the year and I really hope I won't resort to quarterly update as the title of this blog entry suggests. But it was really exciting and hectic. I shall let the pictures do the talking!
New Life
We really thank God our family blessed with a baby son - let's welcome Weslee Phang Wei Zhe (13 January 2009). He weights 3.14kg, handsome and healthy. He was delivered through caesarian as Alicia's labour pain was unbearable that causes the child heart beat produced abnormal reading and Weslee decided to 'poo' in her mother's womb!. Thank God the mother and son were safely gone through the operations. Although this round, I am not able to see the birth of Weslee, but I managed to see him while being given care by the nurse immediately after coming out from the operating theater. My mom help us during Alicia's confinement period and stayed with us for almost a month.
Then came the news of my grandmother went home with our Lord on 10 Feb, few days before Weslee's fullmoon. So, we have to cancelled our planned fullmoon activities. We intend to payback him with 1 year old party!
Emelee Birthday
Not missing out, we have sometime to celebrate Emelee's 2 years old birthday with our family and her cousins. I shall let these pictures transpire Emelee's feeling.
Alicia's Birthday
Then came my wife's turn for birthday celebration (indeed so many birthdays!). I need to really save more $$$ at the end of the year for 3 birthdays in a row in the first 3 months of the year.
Treated Alicia with a sumptuous meal at El Cerdo's in Changkat Bukit Bintang, KL. Ambience was just perfect for this day and I have tasted the best ever roast baby lamb leg although I dislike lamb dishes. She got a special birthday wish presentation from the crew and little piggy as present - oink-oink. Most of the dishes they serve are pork.
She also given "2nd round" birthday celebration from our former babysitter and family.
Picture above showing Emelee mimic her mom breast feed Weslee! Really cute ~sigh~. These days, it is not easy ask her to obey our instructions. Sometimes she really drives me up to the wall by her disobedience and causes me to spank her. I really need to control my anger and learn to love her more instead. She even know how to climb over her baby cot every morning. But good thing now she don't have to wear diapers at home during the day abeit we need to remind her to go to the toilet.
Weslee is strong strong enough now to do a mini push-up when he's lying on his tummy and able to lift his head and shoulders clear of the floor and look around as he does so. He really likes to smile when you look at him! Alicia still fully breast fed him and really put a strain on her. I know she must be really tired to look after these two kids.
