sultana bun

This recipe was for a sultana scone, but I think i didn't knead it properly. so its become a bun. tastes yummy though. from my trustworthy recipe book :)

Baby RT

This is her favourite pose. Asleep on our chests. (mouth open, drooling. I only realised that saliva production is turned on from 6-8weeks after birth, and they don't know how to swallow all the saliva yet, so they seem to drool alot more during this period). 

And this is her learning how to hold her head up better. Doing well, little one! 

Borobudur temple (Yogjarkarta, Indonesia)

We went to the Borobudur temple for the first leg of our honeymoon because I've always wanted to visit this UNESCO site. It was amazing. We took our time to look at almost every stone relief.

Stupas at the top. It wasn't a hard climb.

an example of the stone carvings. 

We did do the sunrise tour but it was really cloudy, so the pictures didn't turn out amazing. Ah well, it was all luck, I guess. We stayed at the Manohara Hotel which was within the Borobudur compound itself and made going to the sunrise tour really easy. The food was of a great quality at the hotel and the staff was friendly and the place was clean. Definitely recommended!

The google baby generation

Thank you all those mummy bloggers out there. You've made me laugh and taught me many things (not sure if they are right or wrong). The ' google baby generation' is my term to describe this generation of newbie parents seeking out answers to their various questions via the Internet and the google search engine. We are faced w so many new issues as we become parents, and I'm really thankful that someone had asked the question, had laughed about it and had more questions at the end...

Kellymom.com is one great resource that I turned to for breastfeeding...

Long absence

Didn't realise how long I had neglected the blog!

We've done the 3 weddings (I survived!), organised the clinical exam for 2012 (success!), fell pregnant (how the body changed!) and had baby A (who is amazing and makes me so sleep deprived), did a year of neurology training while being pregnant (which on retrospect, being pregnant does affect my work performance. I think I was in denial and thought that it won't).

Now while boob feeding bub, I've got my handy iPad around, there's time to update and explore new things w and for baby A. She's 7 weeks old now. Now to venture into the world of parenthood

2 down, 1 more to go

it's a bad idea to have 3 weddings, especially if you don't like the spotlight.

i'd a great time in Melbourne and singapore though. thank you all for coming.

the KL wedding would be an exhausting day on its own. and it's tomorrow!

i'm still contemplating about weddings and how much time and effort we are putting into this. i wonder if it's just another reason to have a party or to gather. or is it to remind people that love is still in the air. :)

i wonder if i'll get post wedding blues. but already, there is something else to organise -- the 2012 clinical fracp exams!!!

will post up some photos once i get the professionals edited ones.

to bali next for a short honeymoon :)
