Baby Angel is 1 month old today!! Wow, time really passes by faster than anything. It still feels like only yesterday that we went to the hospital, and all the memories are still soooo vivid in my mind. Can't believe that it's been over 30 days already!! And our baby is growing up everyday! Happy 1st Month, our darling Angel!!
Presenting her 30-day album as she grew up from Day 1 to Day 30, bringing us new surprises, new expressions and indescribable joy each day. We love you, En En!! May you continue to be a happy and healthy baby!!
Looking forward to my dad and mum's arrival here on Boxing Day, as well as our Stockholm outing next week. 6 adults plus 1 baby! Fwah. Amidst the heavy snow. It'll be Angel's first Christmas and a white Christmas!! Merry Christmas people!!

I guess it's quite true that babies look a little different each day, esp newborns! Our darling Angel now weighs 3.38kg, and the nurse said her growth is "good and more!" Seems like she's growing healthily and quickly then, though she has been puking milk recently. Keke. Anyway yar, she already looks different as compared to when she was born. Still always our little princess though. =) Ain't babies simply adorable? (Despite the non-stop and hard to decipher crying at times =p)Baby will be turning 1 month old in a few days' time. So fast!! It's ironic that although I do hope she will grow up soon, I also will miss the cute little her who looks so fragile im my arms. Whatever it is, I sure will treasure each and every day spent with her.
We'll be holding her baby shower on Sat! Check out her 30-day album here and on fb in a few days' time!!!

Yeah guess what I am referring to? Yup yup, you're right, W-e-i-gh-t!!
Baby Angel weighed 2.97kg at birth, and she was 48cm long with a head circumference of 33cm. When we got out from the hospital, she weighed 2.70kg (we learnt that all babies experience some weight loss in the first few days before they start to gain again).
Last week, she was 2.86kg when we brought her to the clinc. The nurse said by two weeks she should regain her birth weight so we were showing good progress. And viola, yesterday at our second check up, she was already 3.08kg!! wow. Babies do grow fast yeah. My little darling is growing everyday!!
As for myself, I gained a total of 13-14kg for my entire pregnancy. After labour, I lost 4kg but still looked 5-6 months pregnant at the hospital. Haha. But thanks to breastfeeding, within the first week I lost another 3-4kg and my tummy shrank down somewhat though I still feel the bulge. But well, the weight loss is progressing slowly now and I still have another 5-6kg to go before I return to my original weight (if it's possible to even return back, waha). I wonder if I can still wear my old jeans cos' my thighs and hips have expanded so much!
But well, honestly I'm not that concerned bout my own weight now, but just hope that baby will be healthy, strong and safe. After all, I'm already married and have a baby! Keke. I doubt jw will hiam my weight or shape now since his attention is on baby too. I still think mummies are so wei da. Waha. Cheers to all the mums out there!!

We tried to do a photoshoot today with our darling Angel baby. Yeah, just using a normal digicam which was why we had countless lousy shots since we didn't wanna use flash in case it hurt bb's eyes.
And it's super hard to get bb to look at the camera, much less pose nicely for it. Haha. But well, there were still some shots which I like, after all it's our first photo taking session as a happy family of three. =p

I guess having a baby will help to bond jw and I closer together. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's like many things that would have hurt me or made me angry and sad before just don't seem to matter as much now. It's like, you will think for the baby and for the family now first and put all other concerns aside. We may still bicker over trivial stuff as usual but once we hug and kiss angel together or change her diaper together or bathe her together, it's like the world becomes the right side up again. Amazing, isn't it?
Angel baby, thank you and we love you! Looking forward to your first month as well as our first christmas together! Muakz!
