Feeling nausea since Friday...

Although there were episodes of nausea, I didn't thought I'd get pregnant this round either. However, the syptoms were obvious on Thursday morning when I went to the mamak stalls near my office to buy a pack of noodles for my 2nd round of breakfast. It was like what I experienced during my first pregnancy; at one time I felt like eating that particular food, but the next minute, I don't....right after getting the food. So, that night, after having dinner with mom & sis, I checked out the price of the pregnancy test kit at the nearest clinic. It's like RM15 for 1. Forget it! So, we went home. While having my shower, I was still thinking about it. Should I wait till next week to check? Then until at last, I couldn't hold myself anymore and went straight out to get a test kit after finished taking my shower. The children followed me along with Yani. We passed by a "Yong Tau Fu" restaurant and that made me want to vomit. I couldn't even have another glance at it. That made me more convinced that I probably could be pregnant. Hehehe!! First, I checked the price at one of the pharmacy behind Guardian. The price is about RM10 for 1 test kit. So, forget it!. At last, I decided maybe I should go Guardian and check it out. I manage to get 1 box which contains 2 test kit and it only cost me RM15.90. Cheap & probably good enough I thought.

Upon reaching home, I told the children I needed to go to toilet to do my big business (poop), hahah!! Hwa was observing actually. She knew what i was about to do. I went straight to the toilet & read through the instructions impatiently, peed in the tray provided & put the tip of the test kit in to soak. Slowly, I saw a red clear line...then another blur line started to show...and it became clearer & clearer... I was half holding my breath looking at the strip to watch out for 2 lines. Then I took the instruction box to double check again. Yup, I think I'm pregnant! I thought of giving daddy a surprise but I couldn't hold my excitement. I called him immediately. He was on his way home. I didn't carpool with him that Thursday because he needed to use the car to go Putrajaya for a meeting. Then I ran downstairs excitedly to announce the news. Sis was right down there & bro in law was there too. I got them to congratulate me & told them that I'm pregnant! :D Sis said she thought so and she'd been praying for me this month too. Next day, I went to see doctor to confirm. I'm 5 weeks pregnant! It's only 2.5cm big now. Can you see the tiny black rectangle shaped thingy?

The symptoms came very early for this 2nd pregnancy compared to my first pregnancy. During my first pregnancy, I could only detect during the 2nd week after my mensus due date.

A session with my girl's teacher

Last Saturday, we went to the kindergarden to collect her progress card. Our slot was scheduled at 11am. Her absent rate was very high. Her attendance was 78/100. It's because whenever she falls sick, I'd keep her at home so she can rest & get well quickly.

Her teacher said she can hold a pencil accurately. She's able to control her finger muscles well i.e. while holding the pencil, sufficient pressure is placed on the paper when writting. She's an out-going child, very chatty & responsive (& loud... :S). Whenever she's called to do something, she'd respond, "Yes, you called me? I'm coming now.."..or.."Teacher, you see, I'm writting now. I'm a good girl."...  whereas other children will just quietly do as told without saying anything. So, one of the teacher likes to call her all the time. She's able to recognise A-Z Caps & small letters....except Y & y. She could write Caps A to G but not any of the small letters, & 1-10 in english but not in Mandarin. Teacher said it's due to her high absent rate and I need to teach her more at home.

While I was talking to her teachers, she was playing with my iPhone. Her principal saw that and watched her play. She was very impressed that she could play so well on the "Angry Bird" game. Hahaha!!

Steamboat on rainy day

We had steamboat with mom, sis & her boyfriend at Harbour Steamboat last night. Luckily we're there early because not long after that, the place was crowded with people.

We ordered 2 types of soup i.e. the herbal soup & the tomyan soup. IT WAS YUMMY!!!

 

There are 3 types of dips & the chillies altogether to add more taste to your steamed food....really "yummilicious"!!

This sourish drink is really a good thirst quencher. It's a must have if you ever visit this place.

I like their special dumpling alot. It tastes so nice with the tomyam soup

The pictures on the wall shows different kinds of soup & some side dishes they have.

Overal rating: 9/10

Dinner at Otak-Otak Place

We're suppose to meet up at 7:30pm. I only managed to reach there around 8pm. It was quite difficult to find a parking space at IOI Boulevard. I didn't want to park at the basement carpark as it's always seems so quiet & I was alone. 

Mui was there eating nasi lemak already when I arrived. Shane only arrived when we're about to finish all the food. I was so hungry that I ordered 1 BBQ chicken rice, 1 rojak & 3 chicken wings. I was thinking to share the rojak & chicken wings of course... (*eyes rolling)

The BBQ chicken rice wasn't bad. The chicken meat was tender & sweet BBQ sauce was nice. It's quite a big serving for 1 person.

As for the rojak, the sauce wasn't thick enough. It was a little watery. However, it didn't taste too bad.

The chicken wings were alright. It comes in 3 pieces. I had two & Mui had one. That's why I'm growing side ways. I need to go on a diet...seriously.

 Mui bought this delicious cheese cake from RT pastry house. IT WAS SUPER DUPER DELICIOUS!!

We were too full to finish the whole cake. So, Mui got a box from the restaurant & packed some for me to bring home.

Can you see the many taps on the wall??? Hahaha!!

Mui bought 2 refrigerator magnets from Maldives & she couldn't decide whether to give the turtle to me or to Shane. We were not allowed to see the magnets. So at last, we used the "Happy Family" cards to draw for our souvenir. You can find this cards on every table in this restaurant.

 So...I got this turtle. I just kept quiet. I'm scared actually...:''( ....BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE LIZARD!! So, i quickly put it aside and thought I could hold myself from expressing my fear... until at last... "I MUST SAY THIS.....I AM ACTUALLY REALLY SCARED OF THIS TURTLE BECAUSE IT LOOKS ABIT LIKE A LIZARD!!"

They laughed... :S... Then Shane was kind enough to exchange with me. I felt terribly sorry..

We thought we should take photos for every outing from  now onwards...so here they are..

The newly weds, one on 10th Oct & another on 11th Nov....Congrates!! I'm happy for both of you.

Skyhigh charges for SPA & Loan agreement!!

It's crazy ... :S...RM10,000 for Sales & Purchase agreement & RM5,600 for loan agreement. "Faint"..

Last Sunday, my friend & I went to view a condo in Cyberjaya. It's called D'Melor. The place is beautiful. It's like a villa with lots of greeneries and a beautiful swimming pool. There're only 120 units in that condo. So, it's not crowded at all & mostly occupied by foreigners. I can imagine I'd be very happy staying there. I love the swimming pool & the little pretty fountain at the side of the pool. The place is so peaceful and quiet. However, it's not very close to any big shopping malls. But.. we're told that a new shopping mall would be up in year 2013, about 500 meters away from this condo. It was her 2nd time to view the place & she still loved it. So, without hesitating, she paid a deposit of 2.1% to the property agent.

Now, she's searching high & low for the best deal. I gave her one of my lawyers contact. Hmm..Hopefully the lawyers would give her a good rate.

Lesson for today....buy a cheaper condo or get a quotation from the lawyers before deciding to buy an expensive property!

Tonight, daddy's coming back from Singapore. Hehe. Baby will be so happy to see him. Tomorrow is parents day. We'll have to rush to school after Tweedle Wink class... :S....The one thing I'm looking forward to is getting info about how my girl, how she behaves or mingles with other children in school. Also, to be able to see & order those pictures & videos of her taken by the teachers in school & during their concert last month. Then at night, I'll be meeting my secondary school friends. I'm so happy... :D!!

Addicted to iPhone4

Almost every night, before I sleep, I'm glued to my iPhone4. I'm either in the Facebook or searching for some information or checking my mail.  Last night, I was glued till about 1:30am. Hmm.. I must stop doing this. It's bad for my skin. So, this morning I woke up looking really tired.

Baby also got addicted to iPhone4. Everyday when we reach home, the first thing she'd say is "Mommy, I want iPhone". Duhh... :S

Just a short story of what happened last night :-

Last night, after baby fell asleep, coincidentally, daddy called. He was very disappointed as he didn't get to talk to baby. Told him that she was missing him badly until she sat alone 3 feet away from the toilet door by herself with a sad face. Initially she checked if daddy's in the toilet. Looking very disappointed, she just sat there by herself with her eyes just looking down. Sounds a little drama right? So I went over to asked her if she wants me to turn back on the lights and we could read some books. She said yes. Then she was alright again.

Daddy's not in town

Daddy has gone to Singapore and will only be back on Friday. I already miss him since morning when I dropped him off at his office. If it wasn't because I've ran out of leave, I would have followed him. Anyway, he said he'd call me tonight to chat. Well, I can only chat provided baby has gone to sleep and not playing with my iPhone4. He would be buying few more iPhone4's casing for me from Mustafa tonight.... Yay!!

Now it's 6:30pm & I'm still in the office. Feel so tired to drive home and so sleepy :S. Tonight I'll be having dinner with erjie & mom, not sure if Hwa'll join us. I guess I better get going now.. : (..yawnn.....
