41 and counting
Even if the age is taking its time to show on my facial features, the rest of me distinctly feels all of 41 years! Just a day after I turned 41 over the weekend, the very next day at work,
The Theory of Two
For a long time, Yang and I were content with having just one child. My decision was largely influenced by Yang’s perception of my ability to manage another kid. Other minor reasons include my age (higher risk of conceiving a
Lunch with H: Stir-fry Brown Beehoon (brown rice vermicelli)
Since school holidays have started, Hannah started spending time at home with me. Despite my tiredness and morning sickness during this first trimester of pregnancy, I still prefer to have home-cooked meals. To make things easy going, I decided that
Conversations with a Three Year Old – 2
There’s a couple of dishes that I can do passably well, learning that mostly came off my years spent in Perth. One of them is, incidentally, one of Hannah’s favorite dishes – Carbonara pasta. So, that was for our dinner

Conversations with a Three Year Old – 1

It’s been more than a year since I did a picture post on Hannah through each month, with the last one here on our blog. Here’s the month by month summary of our girl as she grows.:)
妹妹 or 弟弟
Hannah will be having a little brother or sister soon! We found out yesterday from the test kit, but waited a day for Ling to get the confirmation from her gynecologist just now. Incredibly, it’s been nearly 4 years ago
Hannah @ 30mm – Part 3
More Hannah photos taken in the last fortnight with the Sigma 30mm! Developmental notes: we’ve noticed that Hannah isn’t naturally inclined towards getting into tantrums, and standoffs between her and us for the last 6 months now seem few and
