Mummy reminiscing the days that she carried me. Try to spot me!
Mummy with Auntie Yi Yong, San Yee, God Ma and Auntie Suping. They were celebrating God ma's 24th Birthday at Hog's Breathe at VivoCity in August 2007.
Mummy with Auntie Annie on 25th August 2007 at the Church Anniversary at Raffles City Convention Centre. Daddy, mummy, gu ze, xiao yee and san yee at Raffles City Convention Centre celebrating Bethany's church anniversary
Mummy and Daddy attending Mrs Wong Boh Boi's Prenatal Class every wednesday starting from August at TMC. We attended the class together with Theddeaus and his daddy and mummy (Uncle Steven and Auntie Sharon). Daddy and Mummy had fun learning how to do prenatal exercise, breathing exercise for labour, how to breast feed, how to bathe me, and how to carry me.
Daddy and Mummy in the fellowship hall after church service. One Voice had to perform on that day. Guess what is the colour theme for the choir members? It is pink! Mummy and Daddy celebrating their 1st wedding anniversary on 10th June 2007 at the wedding suite of Intercontinental Hotel. Look at what they had for lunch on that day. They bought popiah, fried oyster, chwee kueh and sugar cane into the room and had a great feast. and I was about 6 months old in my mummy's womb.
Daddy was admitted to TTSH for two weeks in July 2007 for Liver Abscess. Thank God that he is well again. Mummy had to look after Daddy and shuttle to and fro from her workplace to the hospital every day to see Daddy. Luckily I am strong, and did not give mummy any problem.

Getting ready to go home-29th October 2007 Monday
The hospital's ruling is that my mummy had to go to the nursery to fetch me. The nurse will check mummy's tag and my tag to ensure that we belong to each other before they can release me from the nursery and bring me home. So systematic!
I am home! My first sleep on the bouncer that Daddy and mummy bought for me.
Sleeping soundly in the cot. ??Where am I ??

The Wong Family
Daddy trying to put what he has learnt from pre-natal class to use. This is what we called the cradle hold and picking up baby, according to Pg 30 of Mrs Wong, our pre-natal class trainer's book on Childcare.
As for mummy, it is her motherly instinct to hold and cradle me. No need textbook!

Me in the nursery! Can you spot me?
26th October 2007- The Day that I was born in pictures (Post Operation)
Grandma (Mummy's mum) was the first person to be there. She is going to look after mummy and me when we go back home.
That's me! Fresh from the labour ward into mummy's ward.
Wide-eyed and Alert! Look at me! Who do I look like? Daddy thinks that I have his big head, high forehead (in which a lot of people say that I will be smart next time), his brown eyes,his big ears with big lobes and his long legs and hands. Mummy thinks that I have her distinct chubby cheeks, her nose and her alto voice.
My feet in comparison to daddy's palm.
Look at my fuzzy wuzzy hair and my big ear-lobe!
Look at my tiny toes!
26th October 2007-The Day that I was born in pictures (Operation Time)
Daddy has to wait at the Family waiting lounge while mummy gets hooked up at the operating room.

Daddy reaching the labour ward. He has to get changed into the robes before he can see mummy and me. This is also his first time wearing Crocs.
26th October 2007- The Day that I was born in pictures (Pre-Operation)
Daddy also wants to show off his tummy. Mummy is listening up for any rumblings.
Mummy doing a CTG at Dr Yvonne Chan's Clinic one hour before admission to TMC to monitor my heart beat. The doctor told my Daddy and Mummy that my heartbeat was beating around 140 pulses per minute. Daddy had to constantly rub mummy's tummy to ensure that I am active and not falling asleep to get an accurate reading of my heart rate.
Mummy all dressed up in the operation robe, awaiting for the nurse to call her to the operating room. Can you see me beneath the robe? I am coming out soon! This is also the room (Rm 513) that mummy is going to rest, and the place that I am going to bond with Mummy and Daddy for the next few days. Isn't it nice? Daddy has specially chosen a single room so that Mummy can rest and recuperate better. So nice of daddy!
Daddy trying out his sleeping area for the next few days. So funny! Luckily the bed is long enough for my tall Daddy. But I heard from Daddy that the bed is a bit hard and he had back aches after sleeping on it.
Daddy and Mummy spending their lovey dovey time together cos I will soon be out to be their "intruder".
Daddy and Mummy also spent time praying and sharing together while waiting for the operation to start. Mummy is dwelling on the verses that Daddy had just shared with her.
