Posted on 21 Sep 200918 Apr 2010   by CY

Pictures from the Weekend

Posted on 18 Sep 20095 Mar 2017   by CY

I’ve got three colleagues in my department who all also had newborns within the space of 6 months from Hannah’s birth. It’s quite evenly spread out: two of my colleagues had boys, and the third colleague had a baby girl

Morning Tea with Parents

Posted on 13 Sep 20095 Apr 2010   by CY

The Foo and Ch’ng clans have a ritual for years now. Every Sunday morning, Lentor parents would drive to Ang Mo Kio Central for morning tea and brunch with uncles and cousins from the maternal side. Before Hannah ‘popped’, the

Hannah’s Blurb

Posted on 12 Sep 200914 Jan 2010   by CY

Over the last 18 months now I’ve been putting together a series of photo books with Blurb and titled Vita Una, or “Life in One” in Latin. The first volume covered the first four years between 2004 and 2008 of

… suck your fingers! Taken just before heading out to see Hannah’s pediatrician; and by daddy while balancing Hannah on his lap with one hand supporting the pillow and the other holding the compact camera!

Two books I’d recently blogged about here and here arrived this afternoon, but by way of a different book store this time: The Book Depository, a UK-based online book store. The store boasts free shipping to a long list of

Dreaming Baby

Posted on 9 Sep 200918 Apr 2010   by Ling

I was awaken by Hannah’s cries around 5am this morning. In my mind, I was like “What?! I thought she had no problem sleeping through the night. Oh no…don’t tell me this is a start of her waking up …*mumbles*”

TV-watching baby

Posted on 9 Sep 2009   by CY

Superhero

Posted on 6 Sep 200918 Apr 2010   by CY

Although last Sunday’s picture-taking with Hannah didn’t turn out well, I still managed to get a few nice pictures of her and Ling together. The ones with me in it though didn’t turned out well though. One resolution Ling had
