It's a boy!


Congratulations to my best buddy Sunshine and her husband on the birth of their baby boy on Dec 5th 2006. Sigh.... the birth of a baby is always a happy occasion! I just wish I could've been there for them. Alas I live thousands of miles away. Luckily we have another close friend who was able to be at the clinic during the birth and sms me with updates. I have so much admiration for Sunshine. She has had to endure a painful surgery about 4 years ago and it made having babies a little bit complicated. We even had a joke that if she couldn't carry a baby on her own, she wanted me to carry the baby for her. hohoooo masa tu sanggup buat apa saja untuk kawan! Actually I would probably still do it if she needed me to be a surrogate. But, I think I would ask her to wait until I've had my own child first. But she did it all by herself! She had to go through surgery to get the baby out coz the doctors said it was too risky delivering it naturally, but she did it! I'm so proud of her. She's going to be such a great mom. I can't wait to see the baby when I am back in Malaysia.

It's still snowing. Can you tell?

The first real snowfall of the season arrived today. We were so ill-prepared that we couldn't find the snow scraper that one uses to push the snow off the car and then scrape the ice of the windows of the car. Hubby ended up using a broom. Thank goodness it was dark and nobody saw. hehehehee it was hilarious! Today we'll have to rummage through the garage to locate the snow scraper.

k.d. - muddy roads may be nicer than icy roads! hehe. we get really heavy snow. it's fun for the kids coz the schools are closed but oddly enough the university where i go to never ever closes no matter how heavy the snow gets!
