1 quarter gone in 2017. I think we’ve accomplished some good things :

  • Started the discussions, ideas for JB house. Went to JB once to look around, talked to Tina, talked to my JB uncle. Started the ball rolling. Realistically speaking, we should be purchasing end of 2017
  • Got into the process of balloting for a condo unit ( Park Place by LendLease )
  • Sold my beloved Macbook Air
  • Gave 1 good ranting to my mum over Whatsapp. She has not cried for this quarter i guess?
  • Better control of timing for things ( church, meetings, etc )
  • Went to MIL house to take everything. Now we officially have nothing at her house; EXCEPT the pompom.
  • Settled the ghost AWS Hosting billing on old OCBC card. Terminated the card, got back 3 months worth of billing after dispute ( 20$ i think ); and got a new OCBC card the next day. Linked it to paypal, and Speed Pass.

Baby Sam Sam

  • Confirmed, paid for 1st May Samuel 1 year old celebration. Got confirmation from people etc.
  • Baobao is as cute as ever, he is pointing to the butterflies, ceiling and standing fan, clock, his stroller when we say ‘go out’, saying Dad-da, and waving hello with two hands and byebye/good night with one hand. Still falling asleep punctually every night at around 8pm, and waking up at 7am like clockwork. I love him, and my life is complete with him. I can’t wait to have another kid or two. I would give my all to him, and I would, if I could, celebrate his precious life every day.
  • Baobao had a fever for 5 days in end Feb. We thought it was teething, and then it escalated to diarrhoea, a seizure for a few seconds in the dead of the night, and we were discussing every day whether to bring him to the doctor, but somehow we didn’t. Zhenxin told us it’s Roseola, and the rashes indeed came out when the fever ended. As I think back about it, I came across Kawasaki which could lead to coronary arteries aneurysm and heart attacks. It struck fear in my heart and prompted me to get life insurance covering Juvenile diseases for Baobao.
  • When I was at home with Baobao and MIL, Boabao was eating heinz baby teething rusks, and he chocked for 2 seconds. MIL was quick to action to whack his back and part of the rusk was visible in Baobao’s mouth. Thank god. I froze actually when he choke.IMG_0115
