Photos taken by little Uncle Chee Choon

You see, she gets moody when we just took out the camera.

Perhaps....she is just thinking of how to pose herself in front of this B I G camera.

Here it goes....finally she entertains her little uncle by forcing a smile.

She just woke up...need some times to warm up :-)

Finally..she realised that little uncle is waiting for her.

Turnaround in my Life

It seems like only yesterday that we ushered in 2008 and now we are already in the middle of the year 2008. I remember that I've just joined EPM in last June, hmm...time passes very fast. I spent most of my time working from home since I was pregnant. I am glad I have a wonderful colleague who offer her continuos support and assistance, no matter in work or my personal life.

I am delighted I have her to walk along with me through my journey. I wouldnt have courages to go further without her. Though we didnt get to know much about each other at that point of time, but I fully trusted on her that I shared almost eveything with her. I hope she doenst mind me posting up her photo here :-) there it goes, this gorgeous friend & colleague of mine

Besides her, I am glad I have this little baby with me all the time....*of course she is with me all the time, coz she is in my tummy,hehe :-) and she reminded me from times to times *by kicking me,hehe :-) that I have her by my side no matter what's the future's gonna take.

As with experiences, no amount of book preparation can really prepare me for that all important moment when baby is due to arrive. I read so many books and magazines, it bound with all I need to know and I browsed so many websites to ensure myself is well-equipped with all this knowledge so that decisions dun come in as a dillemma . I was told that knowledge helps to allay fears and it has calming effect. However, it wasnt turn out as what I've imagined off. I couldnt fully recall on what had happenned on that day when she arrived. Everything was so blurred...guess becoz I've taken peditine. It all happenned so fast, all i know is that I insisted not to take Epidural, hehe :-) Many friends keep on reminding me not to take it, and yes I finally did without taking it. Sigh....and yes the breathing exercise is indeed useful...i aint sure how much it helps but at least it ease the arrival and I can enjoyed the beautiful moment. I am sure Lex too, never thought that it would be that fast...it took me less than 2 hours before I was transfered from labor room to my resting room. More often than not, every mums forget to appreciate that incredible moment when this new life makes its entrance bcoz of all the fuss n pain that comes along.

This wonderful song, I would like to share with you guys....hope you'll like it

Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all the years have gone by

Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes

Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit restless and I dream of something wild Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child in your arms

Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit angry and I know I've got to get out and cry Turnaround, every now and then I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in you eyes

Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight

And I need you more than ever

And if you'll only hold me tight

We'll be holding on forever

And we'll only be making it right

Cause we'll never be wrong together

We can take it to the end of the line

Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)

I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark

We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks

I really need you tonight

Forever's gonna start tonight

Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love

But now I'm only falling apart

There's nothing I can do A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life

But now there's only love in the dark

Nothing I can say A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

Turnaround bright eyes, every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight (And I need you)

And I need you more than ever

And if you'll only hold me tight (if you'll only)

We'll be holding on forever

And we'll only be making it right (And we'll only)

Cause we'll never be wrong together

We can take it to the end of the line

Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)

I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark

We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks I really need you tonight

Forever's gonna start tonight

Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love

But now I'm only falling apart

There's nothing I can do A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life

But now there's only love in the dark

Nothing I can say A total eclipse of the heart A total eclipse of the heart

Turnaround bright eyes

Turnaround

I've get used of calling this little girl "baby" soon after I've got to know I am pregnant. during my 9th months pregnancy, I used to talk to her and calling her Baby....

I still remember vividly that the gynae told us - I was carrying a baby boy....that was during my 3th visit where I was 4 months pregnant. But then again...during my 5th visit, my another gynae said it is a baby girl....It indeed confusing us at that time...and the funny things is my husband, Lex, prefer to go to the 2nd gynae, hoping that during the 6th visit, doctor will said "It's a baby BOY!!". I know exactly wat is in his mind...deep down his heart, he is expecting for a baby boy...wat an old-fashioned minded man he is. He still carrying those old-times thinking, u c this is a typical China-Man. Well to me, i dun really concern on the gender..as long as, she is growing well and healthy ;-)

To be fair enough, I dun wanna choose neither a girl name nor a boy name for this baby since i have no idea what it's gonna be....that's make me calling her Baby till now....but then, on the other hand...i have this little puppy who has turn 1 yr now, also named BB. I brought him back to home on 1st June last year. I have to admit that I'm lazy enough when it comes to naming. That made him ended with name of "BB" too....so now, I have 2 babies...and when i call out loud "baby"...this two will react...hehehe...it sounds funny, thus make me changing my mind, calling this little puppy "BB" or "Ah B" while my daughter is "Baby".

Initially...I was actually thinking to give my daughter an english name, but seems that Lex doesnt want it. I wanted to name her Caelyn Hooi Jie Yinn, but Lex said it doesnt sound nice. Then my dad suggested "Catherine"...again Lex found that it's not special. Lex said he wants something unique, just as what he has - L E X M O N D, where you hardly find this in "dictionary". But to me...this isnt call unique but weirddddd....hehe

I myself is called Carrie, where many of my best freinds also sharing almost d similar name, but different pronounciation n spelling. There it goes...Kelly, Carly, Kylie....Yeah....i still remember how i get this name, it was given by a very closed friend of mine, he said Carrie means "a Caring person" :-) as if two persons are loving each other, then they r called lover...so if two persons are caring each other, logically it's called "CARRIE" haha....
