Bye January, Hello February

January comes and goes. It will be February soon. The month of love where flowers, chocolates, and restaurants booking will be overcharge and expensive. Good thing we didn't celebrate Valentine ;) but the lovey dovey vibe is so infectious. On the day itself the 14th Feb, i'll be minding my company's booth at Green Build Asia Conference at KL Convention Centre. It will be a 3 days event. If you happen to be there, come and say hello ;)

Anyway i have started to buy baby stuffs on impulse. I know I should have made a list instead of entering Mothercare and get blindsided with all the cute gorgeous baby clothes. I should have stick to the list IF I HAVE ONE but i haven't even started making a list so i just bought whatever i think baby will need. My mom was telling me not to buy anything until the third trimester BUT have you guys freaking see the price tags on baby's necessities yet???? They are freaking expensive and if i didn't buy bit by bit each month, i'll be flat broke the last 2 months before delivery -_-".

So things that we already have:
  • Stroller
  • Car seat
  • Mattress
  • A white cots just like i wanted
  • Soft pink Bed Sheets
  • Soft pink/ White Hooded towels
  • Some newborn bodysuits
  • Soft pink Blanket






Well that's about it. So sikit rightttt but already left a huge hole in the wallet. So many baby's essentials i have not buy yet. Takpa next month aiming for more.

What i wanted:
  • A neutral colour baby bath and changing mat ( just in case there's a boy in the future)


Need to stop buying things for me and start saving for baby. No more crazy splurges.

BUT i just splurge on these:


I have really dry lips so these supposedly nourishes, protects, and plumps the lips. Well, let just wait and see ;)

XOXO,
Mummy-to-be.

You will be loved eternally

Updating through iPhone is such a hassle as there's something wrong with wifi connection at the moment. Anyway just wanna have a quick update. On baby's progress as for now I'm in my 24th week Of pregnancy. Baby is currently 500g of weight and lately very very active especially at night. I read that at this stage baby can hear noises means lil ones will hear my voice or songs and can react to it. You can actually see physical movement on my tummy as opposed to me feeling butterflies. It's quiet a surreal experience and one not to be missed. Alhamdullilah we women are lucky to be having this special bond with our babies. I didn't have the latest scan. Should have ask the doctor to print it. Still haven't decided on which hospital to deliver. Still have not shop for lil munchkin. A lot mOre to do which will be done in my last trimester. I think that's the best time to buy everything. Three more months. Yikes!!!! Anyway, I wanted the gender to be a surPrise but not 5 minutes after knowing it, hubby practically broadcast the news in Facebook -_-" so it's kinda a moot point to keep it a secret. In 3 months time, I"ll be having ........... *drumrolls*.......... A Baby GIRL!!!!!!! ;)

Romantic beds

Lately i have a thing for four poster beds or canopy beds especially when they are in whites. They look oh-so-serene and romantic. Trying to recreate that hotel-style bedroom with one of these babies. Hubby was telling me that once we have the perfect bed and  more importantly the perfect sheets/pillows/duvet with the right colour scheme and theme, we will never leave the bed. Sleeping in it will be heaven. Now let see if we can pull this off.











Adding this for wishful thinking; white baby cot oh-so-beautiful. A good combination with our bed ;)
