Chris' baby shower!

Baby showers are probably not quite the norm cos we tend to celebrate the baby's 1st month birthday instead but really, it's so much easier (and fun!) to have a baby gift registry with well-wishers contributing things parents need or want apart from the ubiquitous red packet! So that's what Chris did, she had a list of specific baby items she had in mind, and all we had to do was to go put our name against the item. The list consisted of a mixture of stuff she'd already bought which she then wrapped and brought along to the party, as well as stuff that guests can purchase and bring along themselves. We happily contributed toward baby Natalie's eco Bumwear cloth diapers's fund :)

The baker in Chris can't resist cooking and baking ever!
Here is she hard at work adding last minute touches to the dessert.
She prepared such a feast I was glad to have brought an appetite! :p
oh guilty pleasures.... 70% pure dark sinful chocolate
haha the timing of this shot was so comical!

The proud mummy-to-be!

How could I resist these?!! I started my pigging-out on one of these heh.

I promised snapshots of my new short bob so here they are!
Looking at the two photos below I feel kinda nostalgic for my lost locks. Sniff.
Taken in mid Oct at my mate's wedding dinner.
It was hilarious how some uni male friends couldn't recognise me with long hair cos I sported short hair all through school days. And I thought they were rude at first to ignore me! haha!
Taken in early Nov with my girl friends at Soon Lee after attending the launch of Bianca's latest collection. You can't see the belly at all in this white top! It's incredible!

Oh well I figured my hair will just grow back but right now the heat is killing me!
And of cos being excitable first-time parents, we had to take more pics of the growing belly.
The belly at 6 months

Can't wait to finally meet little Natalie come Dec! Meanwhile I'm gonna amuse myself with silly ideas for our baby shower in Jan next year ~ wouldn't it be nice to have a themed party! :p
