Waiting

It's been a week and i have taken leave off work, so i've not been at work the whole week. It was a great time to rest and really just get bored. Maybe it's the time before the storm when i'll be really busy once baby Eliza arrives. Sometimes it gets kinda weird waiting...because i feel like i forget what i'm waiting for. I've read my stuff, prepared what i could prepare, so...what else is there? I've also gotten used to my size that i do really sleep quite well most of the time. :P so I'm just waiting for the real thing. 

Still i need to submit to God that His timing for Eliza to come out is His good timing, something i cannot predict, something i have almost no control over (unless i decide to go for a c-section..which i don't want to). still we'll see how on monday when we go to the gynae for my next appt, whether to wait out another week or to induce. it would prob drive me nuts if i have to wait another week. haaa..but at least i know Eliza's safe and growing healthy inside. honestly Eliza's really quite active, esp at night. and i'll feel my belly and watched amused at her nudging around inside me. 

you know God is so deep and mysterious that somehow man still don't really know what really starts off labour naturally. pregnancy is one beauty and mystery of life that God created to create man. from how the cells combine, how the body changes to accommodate growing a new life (all that hormones, extra blood flow, placenta, etc etc etc), and how He has created the body of a women to bring this new life in us into the world and to give food only suited for a baby. amazing! 

ok, so i'll await in patience for the time, going into labour is not something i can predict, only God knows, and it's His beautiful time. See u soon Eliza!

Happy 2yrs to us!

It's been a long while...i've wrapped up my work stuff and somewhat ready to wait for Eliza's arrival.

And what best to do is start my maternity leave even before Eliza's here...and on our 2yr anniversary day. Not that we're doing much today, juz gonna spend our evening watching rented movies. We're tired of eating...or spending on eating too good food. Tho we had thought of going back to Club Chinois for their extravagant dinner...then again, mayb not..gotta save money.

I juz wonder what i'm gonna do the whole week if she doesn't want to come out till after sunday. gosh!!

Meanwhile...
- eat some healthy food. i love Cedele's meals but they aren't cheap...so juz an occasional indulgence. Salad: pear, celery, walnuts. Sandwich: rosemary chicken with cranberry
. and errr...ice chocolate. :P

- Ww's oldest nephew turns 5. we had fun with them while they're arnd. and Alger the youngest of the 3 is getting into character and being very cute. no.2 is still ever a chatterbox, he can't stop talking.

- we're sorting out of finances....which is quite a lot of numbers to work out. :( gets so confusing at times but Ww enjoys it.
- 2 couples got proposed this week! so excited for them. :D one exciting and elaborate proposal on thursday which i think next time such proposals, if done with the help of friends should get videoed down. oh but i'm so excited for them!!
- mum & sis is going to be back frm Atlanta tonight...yays!!! i should be able to stay awake to pick them up from the airport (with the help of Ww's dad & Ww)
- my feet are sore :( from too much walking on sunday. i dun feel like walking much anymore!!! it's carrying like 14-15kg of weight frm normal.
- i'm sick of reading up on pregnancy & babycare books. i think i read too much but i can't remem much either....oh dear....
