Shopping update
We are starting to get our shopping started. The latest addition is our “forward facing” stroller. It’s super lite (4.2 kg) and the handle can be moved so that the baby can face you or face outside. We’re really excited about the weight given the stairs we have to climb to our apartment. Check out the stroller here:
Besides the stroller, we also got a gift from our good friend Rita from Singapore. It’s an educational Cot Mobile and is supposed to stimulate his development as it fills him with a sense of calm and contentment. It’s also gender neutral so Monkey’s future sibilings will get to enjoy it too. Thank you, Auntie Rita!
Here is a picture of new Cot Mobile (Ian still needs to assemble it onto the crib):
I have also taken my last chance to fly on a business trip early in the week. No problem at all during both flights. Oh, except one thing, when I landed in Singapore and smsed my dear husband my safe arrival, he texted back with “did you give birth on the plane???” Ha ha ha, a very cheeky remark! He must care for our well-being or something!
Otherwise, I am getting bigger and the daily routine is getting more uncomfortable. If you refer to upper right hand corner for my latest bump photo, I don’t know how I am going to squeeze and stretch in that red t-shirt the next two times (at 35 & 39 weeks)! But weight gain is going well and we have increased the frequency of visiting Dr. Ma from now on (every two weeks). So another doctor’s visit coming up next week!
We’re happy and well at 31 weeks. Counting down the weeks now.
Much love from Hong Kong.

Hi Guys,
Sorry I haven’t had a chance to catch up on your news for a while. Stacey you look great, it is funny seeing you pregnant! And hey Ian, just because I drive a kombi, doesnt mean I am a hippy!! Hypno birthing, sounds interesting, if I had a bit more cash, I would really consider it too! Didnt know it was that expensive though!
Anyway, hope May is settling in to all of your weird traditions like folding socks and hospital bed corners!! ha ha poor girl!
All well over here at only 12 weeks, my first scan is friday, so I will let you know how it goes!
Take care,
Love Sam, Kirk, Caleb & Jake

Hi guys! 31 weeks already? It’s going fast huh? Baby will be here before you know it! Aly has the same mobile! She is going to be 1 in a couple of weeks. I don’t know where the time went.
Love from Cyn, Ben, Aly and your extended family in NY!
