Wake up call

A friend once told me, "u should prioritize, shall always put God first, then family, then only urself". I woke up.

All this while without realizing it, I put work first (myself), second comes family, God is always the last. So sad...

Thanks to my friend for giving me the wake up call.

precious moment...

Was thinking about writting this post long time ago but din't manage to steal time for it. I try to be more active in writting blogs as I guess somehow this is where I can keep my thoughts, diary, sort of.

1st March 2010 10.54am - I will never forget the moment my baby was brought to me, while the doctor sewn me up. She smiled so brightly when I called her "baby". Her smile was so unforgettable. Regret didn't ask my hubby to take photo.

Won't forget the first time she laughed out loud.
Won't forget the first time she learnt to use her legs to kick.
Won't forget the first time she said angkoo.
Won't forget the first time she learnt to grab toy.
Won't forget the first time she lifted up her head.

Recently she likes to "scream" aaaaaaaaa!!! I think she's learning to talk. So funny... lol

busy...

Never thought it took me so long to update my blog... my expectation to steal some time during my maternity leave is totally out of the question. Being 1st time mother, being so naive to think that maternity leave is holiday, I can only laugh at myself... ha!

Eventhough it's not easy to take care of baby, however every minute & second I give thanks to the Almighty one, cause He's the one who give me such a precious gift... I can never forget that! Thank you Lord Jesus!

I remember clearly when we were expecting our first child, we did everything we could to prepare. We read books on pregnancy, parenting; Q&A with family and friends. Doing all those things, it didn't prepare us for what to do after the baby was born. We learned basic do's and don'ts, but it was like everything was focus on preparing us for the delivery, it was important, nevertheless.

Once Angel was born, everything started out fine while we were at the hospital. Ceasarean made me so weak and painful (after the pain killer gone), and the midwife took care of our lil' girl. I didn't get to see my baby (only thru photos taken by her dad), until the day i was about to be discharged. She is such an angel... My tears started to form near the edge of my eyes while looking at her... so touched.

It is truely a journey of self discovery and skills learning to bring up a baby. Definitely not easy, I may say. Trial and error most of the times.

This Saturday will mark the 5th month of Angel being in this world. It is exciting to see her growing up day by day; watching her learning to use her little fingers, hands, legs, etc. We are now waiting for her to learn to turn over, a task seems so difficult for her to accomplish. Just by watching her, all worries and headache gone, and it's fun!

it has been a while...

I almost forget about my blog.. last updated was 1 year ago. i guess i'm becoming lazy to write anything here.. and posting photos at facebook is more convenient and faster.

CNY is around the corner, everybody is getting busy with house-cleaning, shopping, etc. This year is a special year; first day of CNY also Valentine's day. Last time it happened, it was 1953. We are fortunate enough to see it happens again.

It is also very special for my family, a new member is coming her way. Anytime from now, she will come to this world. Her due is on 14th Feb 2010, but doesn't know whether or not she will choose the date to come out. Her daddy hopes that she will choose that day, cause he feels that it's a very special day. Her mommy just wish that everything will be smooth, and doesn't matter which day she chooses as long as she's healthy.

Getting pregnant is an exciting experience for me, seeing my tummy getting bigger and bigger everyday and thinking of there's another heart beats inside my body... it's so amazing. Let me think of how wonderful God's creation is.

Counting down... excited, nervous, worry, happy.. mixed feelings... Prayer is the best cure, remember that God is always with us, make me feel safe and worry-free.

I guess next time I write is during maternity leave, when I have more free time to be at home.

Wish everyone reading my blog : Gong Xi Fatt Cai and God bless always!
