[[~Best frens 4ever~]]

Wkend was great! Had a gathering wif my sec gd frens at my hse yesterday. It had been a super long time since we saw one another. We managed to get back 2gether recently thru SMS & MSN & thus decided to have a meetup.

Had a gd chat & itz really nice seeing u all again :) Do keep in touch & meet more often ok?

Darling oso tok to them though he had only seen them once b4. They r all pretty friendly gals! He oso helped to entertain Shanshan's boy by using a plastic bag as a ball to play wif him, so funny haha...

Darling took care of Zenden most of the time while I chatted wif them. He told me Zenden would not sleep though he's very sleepy. Maybe Zenden knew tat there were visitors so he oso wanna join in the fun hehe...

Precious pics of us ~~

Wif my best fren Shanshan & her 2 yr old boy Justin. She is a pretty mummy of 2. Another baby boy is on the way, she's 20 wks pregnant :)) Congrats!

A closer view of us. Shanshan had been my best fren since Sec 1. Endless topics btw us. We have another common topic now - Our kids hehe... Time really flies! We r both full-time mummies nw.

Wif another 2 of my gd buddies - Jessica & Ronghui. Xinyi is missing frm the pic as she is busy at work & can't join us.

Jessica carrying Zenden. He looked so comfortable in her arms. Jessica is doing her masters overseas & is now back 4 her vacation. She will b going off again on 4 Mar. Do come back & visit us during ur next holiday ok? Keep in touch thru MSN :)

Gifts frm all of them. Zenden's orange top & teether frm Shanshan. Zenden's ang bao frm Jessica. Chocolate frm Ronghui. Tks a lot!

Haha.. little Zenden said thank u to u all once again ;>

Shanshan had to bring her son hm 4 dinner so everybody oso left at 6 plus. After they left, we got Zenden ready & off we go to my mother-in-law's place. Had a quick dinner at the coffeeshop downstairs & then went to Causeway Pt after dinner.

Kiddy Palace as usual :) Already 8.30pm when we reached, thus only shopped 4 a while. Bought new 3 mths+ teats 4 Zenden as he would b "upgrading" his pretty soon. Oso got him a cradle cap treatment shampoo. He had a little bit of cradle cap. Hopefully the shampoo will work 4 him.

We reached home at 11pm. Cleaned up Zenden, changed him into his pyjamas, fed him milk & he dozed off to dreamland at 12 midnite. He only woke up at 6am 4 his next feed & no waking up in between 4 milk, which was something very rare. He muz b really tired as he did not sleep in the afternoon. Haha... he oso wanna help me entertain my frens.

Love my hubby lots

[[Gifts & toys]]

Had a belated Valentine's Day celebration last Sun wif darling. Settled little Zenden in my mother-in-law's place b4 we left for our 二人世界. We went to Causeway Pt for shopping. It was not an elaborate celebration. However no matter where we went & wat we did, I would b contented & happy as long as time was spent wif u. Vday every yr is special coz u r by my side!

We shopped ard & spent most of our time in Kiddy Palace as we wanna get toys for Zenden. Kiddy Palace had been my fav place since pregnancy coz it had so many nice stuffs for kids. Could still remember going there almost every wkend to buy Zenden's stuffs when I was pregnant.

Nite was back to my mother-in-law's place for steamboat cum teppanyaki & lao yu sheng.

Darling treated me to fish & chips & my fav lemon tea. My Vday gift from the person I luv most- A bling bling necklace!

Simply luv the heart shape key & crown pendent :) U r the only one who could open the lock to my heart.

My Vday gift to the person I luv most - A guy's essential ;)

Bought a thermometer for our baby. Bought a better one coz the previous one tat we had was nt so gd.

*******************************************************

A love note to my dearest hubby Edmund:

Thank u for giving me so much of ur unconditional love & care! My life is happier & more meaningful ever since I met u. Do u still remember the 1st time we met each other? U really made my heart melt when u smile coz of ur dimples haha... And not 4getting ur gd tempered nature which attracts me. From frenship to love, we have come a long way.

Some pple said guys will change & reveal their true colours after they r married. However u r the exceptional. During our courting days, u gave me ur deepest love & care. Up till now, the passion is still there. I m confident tat our love will last a lifetime, till we r old!

If I reach out my hand, will u hold it? If I open my arms, will u hug me? If I go for ur lips, will u kiss me? I know u will! Coz u r always there for me. I m blessed wif a great hubby like u & I will cherish this gift from heaven.

I know tat even if I do not put on makeup like in this pic, u will still love me for who I m :)

With hugs & kisses,
Ur beloved wife Joanna

My baby Zenden has turned 2 mths! Happy 2 mths to my cute little precious!

U r daddy & mummy's best Valentine's gift

2 days ago was "ren ri". It will bring gd luck to "lao yu sheng" on tat day so my mum bought it.

Little Zenden oso join in to "lao" haha...

Brought Zenden to have his vaccination at Thomson Medical Centre yesterday, Valentine's Day hehe... Darling took leave & he drove us there.

The nurse took Zenden's weight & height. He had grown heavier & taller! After tat Dr. Koh had a thorough check on him b4 giving him the injection. He asked me to hold Zenden's leg tight while he passed a toy to darling, asking him to distract Zenden by playing wif him. When the syringe was inserted, Zenden gave a loud cry & then stopped once the needle was out. Really so proud of him. Initially we were so scared tat he might cry non-stop but he was such a brave boy :)

Dr. Koh gave us a bottle of paracetamol to feed Zenden in case he develops a fever after his vaccination. Poor little Zenden really had a fever last nite. Darling & I woke up several times in the nite to check on him. Till now he is still having a fever. Fed him medicine, monitored his temp as well as put a wet handkerchief on his forehead. Really heart pain to c him having a fever. Hope the fever will subside!

After Zenden's vaccination yesterday, I went to my previous workplace wif darling & baby to hand in my resignation letter as well as retrieved some of my stuffs. My colleagues played wif Zenden & we oso had a chat. Saw the kids there. I had not seen them for like 2 mths & so many of them had grown taller. I m really going to miz my colleagues & the kids, especially those whom I have taken care of. Well... I will go back to visit them again in future.

Didn't celebrate Valentine's Day wif darling yesterday due to Zenden's doc appt. Will b having a belated celebration this coming Sun.

In the car to TMC for Zenden's vaccination

My brave little boy! Sick but could still give a smile.
