Things to look forward to...

Well, its been a long time since I've posted anything on this blog. Had been busy working on weekends these few weeks and no I'm not employed permanently, its just part-time work to keep me from doing more shopping online! hehehehe... Kidding about online shopping part, recently don't feeling like buying any more "junk" (as my hubby puts it) from eBay etc...

This whole month of April and May has been very eventful despite me not blogging as often as I think I want to. First of all there's the new additions into the family; nephew, Hughes Leung, born on 30th April and niece, Evelyn Tan, born on 18th May. The babies are so.... cute! So now hubby and I are "promoted" to being "ah yee" and "yee cheong" despite being already "kau mo" and "kau fu" to Marc (Hughes's bother). As happy as I feel now, there's still a little bit of sadness as I wanted so much to be at my sister's side when bb Evelyn was born. I really wanted to shared a little piece of happiness with all of them at home. But I guess, having them emailing pics to us will do, until we go back next year! I can't wait till next year when I can get to hold and hug her for the first time!

But there's also another thing to look forward to end of this month; we'll be going back to France to see the new "arrival", bb Hughes! Both of us simply can't wait till then! I wonder how much he has grown so far despite the fact that he's born a month earlier than scheduled.. I really looking forward to going to see him and to do some stashing while in Paris. Talking about killing two birds with one stone! I've already started my shopping list and shop lists now... :) Pray that I don't forget the list then and that I'll get to buy the things I wanted. From previous experiences, I tend to forget my list and had to buy the thing I wanted from memory!!! Not a very good idea, buying from memory as there will be always one or two things that I really wanted and "forgot" to get them! Will only remember when we're about more than half way going back to Switzerland!! Then again hubby got used to me saying "AAARRGGHHH..." in the car on the way back, as always....

In fact I think this year and next there's going to be load to do and to look forward to for us. Right now I just pray that things will fall into place as there would be more pleasant surprises to come, hopefully! :)

Congratulations on your "promotion", Shanny! No wonder you've been missing in action for so long!

And I understand how it feels about the shopping bit. Well, even when I do use a list, I still forget to list one or two items that I really needed!...

Hugs, Alice

Thank you! Thank you! I'm so happy and relieved that mother and bb is doing well! Let's hope that my SIL and sister can get back into their old jeans! hehehehe...

Haiya! Being promoted is one thing but being "harrased" by family and friends asking the same questions "so when is your turn ar?" is another....
