Merry Christmas

Our simple Christmas celebration was spent with Ash sleeping soundly in her car seat and...



the 3 of us happily munching away on 'human food'!

We SURVIVED!

Ash is ONE month old! And yessss... that also marked the end of my month long confinement with ginger and sesame oil!

So many worries and uncertainties of not being able to handle Ash on our own were all uncalled for. Although we were quite shagged out to be waking up every 3-4 hourly for night feeding/fussing but I believe we will SURVIVE!

First outing as a family of 4

We went back to my office this afternoon with some gifts to thank my colleagues for their well-wishes on the arrival of lil Ash...




This outing can be considered as our first one as a family of 4 and I am proud to say we did quite well. Though abit 手忙脚乱 when Ash started wailing for her milk, I still managed to pacify her till I got my barangs from Walker who went to put our shopping stuff in the car!

After 2 hours of walking around, all of us were shagged out!

Ashlyn's Baby Shower

We had a small celebration for Ashlyn just days before she turned one month old. How time flies...

All of us including Kaeden, were overly excited to see our friends that we forgotten to take any picture with them!

Thankfully, we have a few shots of here and there before the start of the baby shower. Enjoy!

The 3 of us...



Gift & Angpows from our friends



Looking forward to another one (maybe too late to be called baby shower) with our old friends since long long time ago... Uncle Alvin/Aunty Serena, Uncle Chris/Aunty Judy & Uncle Gee/Aunty Selene!

The Pinocchio

I have been talking about watching this musical for the longest time but somehow it slipped my folk's mind about it. Thankfully, we managed to get the tickets for the last show this holiday.

Since Mummy has to be confined at home, it will just be Daddy & me :)

Brother & Sister

Aunty & Walker went marketing, leaving the 3 of us at home. We were playing in the room when Ash cried for her milk. I told Kaeden to help me watch Ash while I made milk in the kitchen.

When I came back, Kaeden was literally WATCHING over his little sister. So sweet of him to stop his game halfway (which he hardly does unless I nag and nag) to make sure Ash is safe while I am away...

Christmas Tree is UP!

Ash's Jaundice Updates

Just received a call from Kinderclinic that the level of Bilirubin in Ash has dropped from 13+ (4 December 2010) to 11+ (7 December 2010). Phew!

Although still a little off from the 'safe' level at 10, we are thankful that Ash need not go for any more heart-wrenching blood test :)

Day out with Daddy

Takashimaya is having an additional 10% member sale and Daddy & I were tasked to head downtown to get some baby stuff for Ash as well as Xmas shopping.

Pictures we took along the way...
