Babies

People have been asking when I'm going to pop since now i obviously walk slower, and my tummy is rather low. I like this comment best, its from a life guard.
LG: " When you giving birth?"
Me: " In a few weeks."
LG: " Aiya you come here give birth, straight away baby can swim liao"

Me and hub have been swimming at serangoon pool for donkey years. The life guards have became our friends watching as develop as a young couple to now parents. They have called to call me Mummy. Weird actually, cause there can be lots of mummies at the pool at one time. I mean the life guard's comment was true but can you imagine the morbid sight of a baby popping out, bikini floating etc etc...ok I'm having crazy morbid thoughts again.

By the way, some good friends of mine have taken turns to pop their 1st and 2nd kids...and another classmate of mine is joining the mummy's club. Well done to all, and we sure will have a large playgroup soon.

Date with hub

It has been a long long long time since hub and me sat down to hv drinks with one another. I would usually feel guilty of not spending time with Ashlynn and instead we'll take her out for ice cream.
The Sunday date began with a very stern hub dragging me out of the house. I hate to see Ashlynn standing by the door watching us go. Yucks.........I once experienced that when I was a kid. But hub says, its part of life cant be with your parents all the time.
After awhile of browsing in the art gallery and people, we settled for Dome. So weird, we just sat there holding hands and slowly started talking. Took awhile to warm up I feel, we were like old fardy dardies. No more the Q and A, at a certain point I thought we were going to run out of topics. I calm my insides told myself not to rush, be patient. We were both tired from sleepless nites with Ashlynn perhaps we just needed time to listen.
True enough, hub has never been the forthcoming kind. He prefers a single mind boggling question and our conversation can go on forever. Guess what the question that got us going all the way back home. It was " Do you love your mum?" I got more insights to hub, hearing him and comforting him. It was good, we both knew it. Yup and we sure are going to do it again. This time with less inertia. Thank you mumsy for the nite.
