My Little Keegan is now 33 weeks old!

5 more weeks to go ... April 6, 2008 will be the day to welcome Keegan to Goh Family. Will Keegan looks like Eugene or me?

I had cesarean for Meredith as she was breech, will do the same for Keegan even though I might have the chance to choose natural birth. No, no, I don't want, scared of the labour pain.

I failed in breastfeeding for Meredith, developed Mastitis. The pain was unbearable, both my breasts were as hard as cheese. Went to seek help from Mrs Wong Boh Boi from Thomson Medical Centre, my goodness, the massage that she did for me, made me cried so badly that Eugene had never seen it before. This time round, I must succeed for Keegan. Any successful tips for me?

Picture of Meredith when she was 2-day old.





Want to see how "Pretty" I am, when expecting I was Meredith? This was taken on the day before admitting hospital.



Did I scare you???












This is how I look now! Better? Eugene's comments: JUST AS BAD!!!

I am exhausted from shouting & threatening!

Meredith, time to brush your teeth/time to shower! ... "NO" mama, she answered. I counted to 3, if you don't come, I will give away your baby Genevieve...Or I will take the cane. She started whining and screaming.

This is her baby Genevieve which I bought for her.











I really don't know what to do and decided to get the book "How to Behave so your children will, Too!" by Dr Sal Severe. Hope to get answers and manage my anger.

Mummy & Daddy, I want to go airport and send Renee!


Sogo and his family went back to Shanghai on 16 Feb 08 after spending 2 weeks in Singapore.

Meredith, Renee, Melissa & Javen managed to spend time playing and quarrelling together again. Guess, it must be very enjoyable for Renee since she is alone in Shanghai.

As for Sean, Leroy & Nigel,they were happy as well. Especially, Joel was able to join us on CNY's Eve and 1st Day of CNY.

When I told Meredith that Renee was going back to Shanghai that day, she told me she loves Renee and want to send her at the airport. We guessed it could be both their zodiac sign is monkey that made them very close.

When it was time to say goodbye at the departure gate, Meredith gave Renee a goodbye hug and Renee was so sad and kept saying "I wanted Meredith". Guess, this made Janet's eyes turned red...

Well, they will be back again in July for their summer holidays, will see them again soon.

Gong Xi Fa Cai!


This year, Joel was able to join us for CNY. We took this opportunity to take a family photo with him.




Meredith in CNY clothes. She insisted that I buy this outfit for her as her teacher said, CNY must wear CNY clothes. Well, must admit that she has grown up.

Holiday at Rasa Sentosa Resort, Shangri-la

Sogo and family were back from Shanghai on 1 Feb for their CNY holidays. It has been more than half a year since we get to meet again.

The Goh Family has decided to book a room each at Rasa Sentosa from 2 - 4 Feb 08. Thanks to Eugene for exchanging his Thai Airways mileage for the room vouchers. The kids enjoyed themselves so were the adults. As Eugene is a Golden Circle Gold member, we were upgraded to a suite and Meredith got a welcome gift, a frog named "Toots" from the Director of Rooms who came to welcome Eugene.













We had an early "Loi Hei" and reunion dinner on 2 Feb at Ritz-Carlton's Summer Pavilion, our favourite venue. Thanks to Managing Director of Jovin Automotive Pte Ltd for the dinner. The kids joined in the "Loi Hei" and shouted "HUAT Ya" ... Meredith said it was fun, from there, she learned how to hold and use chopsticks.
