2nd Father's Day

Did not have celebration cause i totally forgotten last sunday was Father's Day.

Didn't prepare any pressie nor dinner that night. As usual go over to my mum place for dinner. Nobody has mentioned about Father's Day and i thought it was just a normal sunday.

Haiz....it is true that my memory got worst after i give birth. Personally felt that more ppl celebrate Mother's Day than Father's Day.

But anyway really feel so sorry for my dad & hubby....

Her first word

16 June 2009

Xuan Lin is talking and her first words are Papa

I was out with elaine & crystal for dinner that night.

Even though i am not the 1st one to hear what she called.

But once i reached home that night. My mil and hubby told me immediately.

Thereafter she will only called papa when we ask her to call.

I’m so glad about it and looking forward to hear more from her.

Maybe she would say "Mummy" tomorrow? Let's see...

Meet my sis to pc show on friday evening. Again hubby need to work nite shift. Decide to go there and take phamplet and to see if got any trade in deal for a laptop. Was aiming for Canon IXUS camera and HP laptop. There are too many brand and model to choose from. Need to discuss with hubby which model to get and do some comparsion before getting.

My Princess is 14mths Old on 09 Jun 09

Received a shocking news from my boss that i will be retrench. They no need so many head count after off shoring project to jakarta. And i was told that the company will place me on the transfer list for a mth and another mth notice. So my last day should be on Aug. I was quite upset cause w/o a job that mean i will not have a monthly paid. Which mean that i need to spend wisely can't just buy whatever i want.

Let talk about something happy. Xuan Lin is 14mths old. And after receiving this news i got no mood to take pic again :(...

5) She will cried if she is left behind at my mum plc.
6) She will let us knw if she is full by showing the T sign.
7) She knows that after her milk at night she will have to brush her teeth

I m still waiting anxiously for Xuan Lin to walk on her own....

Last trial @ LNT 06 Jun

When for the last trial lessons aft a long break. Reason because xuan lin has been falling sick ever since we enrolled her for the trial lesson. Don't really know what cause her bronchiti!?! Could be airbond virus or the weather is real bad. So hubby and I has decide not to bring her out for the moment.

Hubby told me that he need to go back office for a trial session in the morning. But he received a call from his boss asking him to replace 1 of his colleague which was suppose to be on 24 hrs tour. He only need to replace him for half tour.

My mum and my sis is attending my cousin's daughter full-mth celebration. I told my mum that i need to bring xuan lin for the last trial lesson and she decide to go with me and not to attend the celebration.

Last lesson was a japanese class. The teacher like xuan lin so much. Keep telling my mum that she is very kawaii neah... Before that had discuss with hubby whether if we should sign up f or a term. And final decision by him is not to continue :(

Photogenic Baby Contest

Lately saw this online magazine and there is a photo contest. So i have decided to submit this time cos the results will be determined by the judges and not by polling via online. I dislike contest that need to pull crowd to contribute to the votes.

On the 8 Jun 09, i received an email subject "Photogenic baby photo contest voting start from today". What the heck is it all about? I thought results is determined by the judge instead of polling vote?!? Then i quickly email the organiser that i m not very unhappy about this. In the 1st place the magazine did not state is by polling vote and if i knw i will not even submit my application. The reply from the organiser is that they can't remove xuan lin pic as it will affect the voting result. And say that they would like to publish xuan lin pic on the beautiful baby for July issue. Whatever it is i truly believe by polling vote is unfair. If they won doesn't that mean that their baby is photogenic and those that didn't won means that their baby is not photogenic? I always feel that my Xuan Lin is the most photogenic baby in this world. Wahahahaha :p
