Started work but couldn't seem to get the momentum going! Wanted to do so much but somehow the mind is not with the body. Body is at office, mind is with Zach at his infantcare. This is bad.. Gotten our bonus though it is lesser than what I've got last year but I'm not complaining cos as long as there is $$ in my account, I am happy. No increment though..shucks! Nearly 2 years without increment..Arrgghhh..
Resume expressing milk for Zach. It's a tiring affair but I know I can do it. It was quite stress expressing at work, having to absence myself every 3 hrs (I am pumping every 3hrs to get the supply up) for 45minutes. Milk isn't flowing out smoothly and Zach is increasing his milk intake daily..first it was 150ml every 4hrs then 160ml every 4hrs then 170ml and now 180ml!!! Crazy or what... I need to pump like 4x a day in order to meet his demand and I could sense my boss is not very happy about it. Sigh.. I prepared myself to resign so that I could stay home and pump exclusively for few months just to stock up on frozen breastmilk that can last Zach for few more weeks or months (depending). I talked to her (my boss) and I was pleasantly surprised that she actually allow me to take leave to stay home and pump and come back when I am ready!!! Happy happy.. milk supply went up as well!! I am not going to give up anytime soon.. drinking papaya fish soup with pork ribs, steam cod fish, fish slice soup, warm soya milk, milo, fenugreek! Doing all I can to up my supply.. the result is showing soon and I am positive about it.
We're going to Genting next Fri!! It's been years since I last went there. Come to think of it, not that long, max 3 years? Hmm... it will be Zach's first holiday trip with his parents and hubby will be driving there with his parents n bro. Wonder will he let me drive..itching to drive on the highway. So many to pack for Zach and my mind is alr working on what to bring etc. Hubby say just bring the whole house along.
I watched a few movies on my iPod during expressing - Marley & Me, Bride Wars Out, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. All of them were nice and it was especially so for Marley & Me. It was so touching that I cried n cried in the end. Now that is the main reason hubby do not want me to get a dog!! I will be too sad if something were to happen to it. Oh well.. wait till Zach ask him for one in future.. mummy will psycho him to ask daddy to get one. Haha
Counting down
Four business day to me returning to work! Am I looking forward to it? Well.. I am kinda bored staying at home and it is mounting up when Zach is sleeping. Of course when he is awake, I will give him undevoted and undivided attention..hehe. He was at the infantcare last week from Monday to Thursday for 1/2 day session each time and most of the time I was at office clearing emails and once went for my pampering session. Finally I got my manicure and pedicure!!
Went shopping yesterday with hope of getting some business shirt for work. Most of my working shirt cannot be buttoned up at my boobs area. On the other hand I shouldn't get new shirts since I will prob stop breastfeeding in another 10 weeks and by then I hope my breast will shrink back to its pre-pregnancy size..hehe. At the end of the shopping trip, I am poorer by few hundred cos I bought a Kate Spade wallet, 2 pairs of shoes at Charles & Keith both items that are not in my shopping list!

A Wedding and A Duck
Sunday 16th March 2009 is hubby's bestie wedding which the dinner will be held at M Hotel. Since hb will be one of the brother, we reckon he will be too drunk to drive home after the dinner and hence we booked a room at the hotel to stay for a nite.
Daddy & Zach relaxing after Zach's feed
Lots to pack when you have a baby.. instead of a handcarry bag, we use a luggage instead. Alot of in case is taken into consideration during packing..so I end up bringing alot of Zach's barang barang. Even my bag looks like his play bag - all his toys is in there.
Zach still relaxing when daddy is checking us in
Let mummy take a photo with her precious darling
The hotel room is very nice and clean and spacious and we are impressed! Who get to check out the big bed first? Zach of course..haha and he sure enjoys it.

Zach wants to test the firmness of the mattress by flipping! Good mattress and comfy bedsheet
Got Zach a inflatable duck tub. Lately he's been very fond of ducks cos mummy bought rubber ducks meant for his bathing time and each time during his bathe session, mummy will sing
Four little ducks went out one day
Over the hill and far away
Mother duck says 'Quack! Quack! Quack! Quack!'
But only three little ducks came back
Zach n his duckie - thanks Unc Jack for blowing this up
The wedding was very nice and I lurve the deco and the black & red theme. How I wish my parents will allow us to have black theme as well.. I am thinking of black & gold & red theme but hb gave me a surprise last night on our wedding theme. Kudos to him for putting thought on it.. love him to bits..
Family pix - too bad Zach is flinging his hands ard..will wait for nicer pix!
