Short trip to KL over the weekend: 18-20 January 2012

We went to KL over the weekend as Daddy had to attend a wedding and I took the opportunity to meet up with some friends from KL whom I have not seen for a while. They were my colleagues back at LHAG where I did pupillage in 2006. It was nice seeing how everyone is doing well in the legal profession. I have to admit that catching up with them made me feel a little bit nostalgic.
Daddy of course wanted Josiah to come along for the short break. Seeing how he has been a good boy and settling well into his playschool, I agreed.
It was a short trip but Josiah enjoyed himself. Here are two pictures of him playing at the small play area outside Toy 'R Us in Mid Valley Megamall. I think it's a clever idea to have the play area to attract children and customers to to shop there. Daddy couldn't resist and gave in to his request, much to my chagrin, to buy Godzilla the monster (now why would anyone buy their kids monsters, right?) Anyway, he enjoyed playing at the play area. He got up the slide all by himself and went up and down the slide several times. After that, he was totally KO-ed so while he slept in his stroller, Daddy and myself treated ourselves to coffee and cakes at Plan b. My little cheeky boy is now 2y 4m+.

Baby loves to kick Mommy

Week 24 & 6 days: Baby girl is really active. Her kicks really pack a punch! If I lie down still, I can see my tummy jiggle. Not that I am complaining - I love to feel her move! Although when I was carrying  Josiah, his movements were more gentle. I wonder if this means that baby girl will be very active and physical when she is out of my womb. I hope she will be a good girl with good temperament. 

First day of school - no tears at all!

Josiah's first day of school went well. He made a new friend called Jaden immediately and they played together. When I told him I was leaving to go to work and that I'd come pick him up later, he answered 'OK'. His class is from 8.30am to 11.30am. When daddy and I picked him up from school, the teacher said he did not cry at all. I'm so proud of my little boy. He is attending Taska Twinkle Tots this year and next year he will be off to Rajawali. I pray that he will enjoy school, make new friends and learn to be more disciplined.
Baby is growing well. Last scan revealed that she has long legs (like mummy). She kicks A LOT! I love it when she does that. I'm assured that she is well and active.
I have also been searching high and low for a confinement lady. I have called almost 50 of them  and they are all booked. I hope we can find one soon, otherwise I will have to go to Jia Yi. This time I would prefer to be at home because Josiah will miss me...and vice versa! It will also be easier for daddy as he does not have to travel back and forth to visit me.
Today is the second day of 2013 - Happy New Year! I look forward to this year, especially the birth of baby girl and anticipate lots of excitement and new experiences motherhood brings.
