Wedding Music – Revisited
Nearly a year ago I wrote a series of posts on wedding music. Even though our own event was 3 years ago, whenever I listen to a music composition, my subconscious self still goes on appraisal mode to see if
Buuurrrrppppp!
I’m actually quite new to this whole burping business. Heck – prior to Hannah joining our family, I didn’t know the implications of not burping babies at all, but quickly wised-up to it when Hannah first merlion-ed a feed. It
Not an Ipod
I haven’t had the chance to use my recently acquired Gorilla Pod Focus extensively yet as we haven’t had the chance to bring Hannah out for outdoor photographic shoots yet, apart from that nearly failed attempt on Sunday. But here
