Me time..

I was reading karen cheng's blog and she mentioned about having 'Me time'. I thought to myself do I ever find 'Me time'. Yup I truly have for the last 2 weeks, in fact when I'm at work sometimes I do find myself listening to my own thoughts while in the lift alone, driving etc.
Last night, after putting Ashlynn to bed I quickly made the effort to turn on some music and sit on my sofa to read. Gosh....I was smiling from ear to ear, there was peace. Only 20min before hub came back from his jog. It takes effort to break out of being a communal person to find time for myself. I hate to eat alone when I'm out, I rather starve. But other than that I love the idea of going for swims alone and simply reflecting amist the rippling sounds of water.
I have been making effort to got for a swim while Ashlynn naps and exercising can take some motivation many a times. I tell myself I will never regret it even if its a 20min swim, then I drag myself to the pool. True enough, I've been very happy.
I'll be finding more 'Me time', before 2nd one pops. I'm still trying to think of a name for her....any ideas....I'm so so fussy!!!

Back from hols...

It was a good trip to Aussie. We had a 'rojak' of emotions daily with the little gal ard. My mum asked me when we were back whether hub and me quarrelled during the trip. I paused and then said, gosh we had no time and energy to quarrel. Every little time we had we would quieten down and talk about our lives and just enjoy the moment. Yipee....I finally got what hub has been trying to tell me all this while....'Live the moment'.

I put on 3kg since my return and the nurse at my gynae's clinic was complaining out front to Ashlynn. The tummy just ballooned and in 2 weeks the bb put on a kilo. Imagine the sudden load I was carrying around. But I'm enjoying preghood and really scared of going through labour, especially the episotomy part.

I've got a favorite self-protrait of me as a ballooning dugong to share. Really its a hilarious shot I find. No killer whales I told my husband just a tame omnivorous dugong.

Our last trip before the 2nd pops and till the next trip, this has been a memorable fun filled one. And can only to made possible with hub being so amazingly hands on in caring for Ashlynn and of coz the little rascal who helped aroused the zillion emotions in us. Love
