November Update

Just a quick update;
26Nov06
Daddy threw me my first party to celebrate my one month in this world on Sunday, the 26Nov06. This time, daddy decided to do a malay raya celebration and had `open house' from 12-8pm. We catered food from Overseas Restaurant whilst Nana cooked up a storm for 2 whole days with Lisa (1), Janet and Fei. Popo and Khung Khung were on red egg patrol as well as `ang ku kueh delivery’ Uncle Daryl and Papa helped set up the place whilst daphne was in charge of `decorations’. Auntie Geraldine and Lisa 2 came to help out too! Nana was decked out in pink ( ahem ahem like me ) whilst Khung Khung was guiding the `lost’ from Hua Ho Bunut to the house.

So it was a busy busy day; with lots of presents and everyone taking turns to carry and gawk at me. Funny thing is when I was sleeping, everyone was gushing about how I should open my eyes. But when I did, they started making funny faces and talking `funny’.. but when I started squirming around to play.. they all tried to make me go to sleep. Go figure! Family from KB and BSB came around as well as Daddy’s friends and their extended family to visit and eat… and then some. By 3pm, the food was running out and Nana’s creative cooking talent came out in full force with Auntie Rosnah’s help manage to keep the well-wishers fed (just) till about 8-9+.

Got a little bit cranky being passed around and woken up; so mum tried put me to bed at around 8pm. Nana had a well-deserved massage later in the evening whilst Dad’s friends stayed till about midnight. By that time; everyone was bent over in fatigue. It was such a blast but of course as usual; forgot to take pictures.

Today, I went out in MY car with mum as driver and auntie fei to play wiv me. We went to meet up with Daddy at the Malaysian High Commission to do my travel papers. The lady behind the counter said I was so cute; she wanted to hold me for awhile whilst Dad was organizing the photocopies and mum was filling in the forms. Then came the best part, mum thought she had everything under control with her wet wipe in her hand; PREPARED for the taking of my thumbprints for the form…. But I am not called little houdini for nothing… before mum could catch my hand… I did a little bit of face painting by myself .. so ended up looking like spot (my guardian puppy) took mum and ntie fei ages to wipe it off.. dunno what the fuss is about.

Then off we went to this Anggerek Clinic for my second Hepatitis B jab. Dad undressed me totally and weighed me in at 4.55kg (put on 1.27kgs in 1 month and 3 days). Anyway everyone said I was very cute and I breezed through the physical examination by the mid-wife. Mum was cuddling me on minute, then next thing I knew something was in my right thigh.. I looked at mum den dad den mum again and remembered thinking `Eh!! Helliu aren’t you the people that are suppose to protect me against anything unpleasant!!’.. that was before I sucked in a deep breathe and hollered myself purple.. clinic foundation withstood my cries. After that, we went home to Anggerek where I was soothed with milk (lots of it!). Popo and Khung Khung looked after me whilst mum and dad went to the Immigration to do my visa.

Later that afternoon, I went wiv mum to the Bank to see Auntie Dkf and Sal who said I was so cool in my new Bling Bling cap. Then they insisted on taking turns to carry me and kidnap me so Mum had to go round the office with me.
