National Day, 10/1

**oops did not post on 10/1... a little late!***

Yesterday was National Day. Meaning, China's communist party took over on 10/1/1949. The 60th anniversary. Parades, fireworks, the whole sha-bang. What does this mean for us? Woohoo! the day off. :)





Sleeping till noon, hanging out not doing much... sounds good to me! Actually yesterday I set up the playard. I'm glad we got the graco one, it's quite easy to setup/take down... though I think the sleepy safari one is probably still nicer, though i'm sure little girl won't know the difference. It's a green/brown colorway, which isn't super girlie either, but I think that's kinda what i wanted. it works okay, and as long as it's safe and serves the purpose, then that works for me!





Yesterday though I did feel some funky cramplike things... lower abdomen... yes, i can admit i am anxious, afterwall we did setup the graco! haha. but then again, it's best little girl stays inside for a few more weeks so she grows healthier by the day. :) but cramps, yes. though they weren't very consistent nor did i see any plug come out. so i guess we'll just wait for now! i really hope though, little girl is a libra... or libra/scorpio cusp...

well today is actually 10/5, monday. This year really has flown by...
The weekend was uneventful despite being "Mid Autumn Festival" Saturday, but also not really restful. I should've slept more. i don't think little girl had a very restful weekend at all. we're both very tired today, especially. hopefully tonight we will sleep more.... shouldn't have watched the Liverpool v. Chelsea game last night! Liverpool lost too! At least waking up at 8am on Sun for the SC game (which btw wasn't even on tv, so i had to espn-it from blackberry!) was a WIN. WOOHOO SC.

Mid Autumn Festival was nice... we went to Yuen Long for dinner with yeye and mama and relatives... nothing super out of ordinary but okay. sharks fin soup. then we came home and took a walk in the park, daddy and i have been walking a little bit everyday, which is nice, even if it's only like 5-10 min from manhattan hill to home... but anyways WOW. SOOOO Many people in the park and SOOOO MAny kids! We've never seen so many ppl before there. it was pretty nuts. To think next year you will be playing with lanterns? or maybe just holding onto one glow stick really haah. awww.

Mommy was nesting too this weekend... cleaning and such. ahhh. need to buy detergent so i can start washing your things! though since we still haven't a place to put them i guess i have some time...


But we went to see the dr today (10/5)... i think his measurement wasn't very accurate today though b/c your head measured smaller than last week? i don't think that sounds right.. but your lungs aren't developed well enough yet and he says you're about 2kg which is still very small. So according to your due date it's now almost the end of November. Perhaps instead of thinking you'll be a libra/scorpio cusp mommy should now think of scorpio/saggitarius cusp! Mommy gets along well with saggs anyways. they're fire and quite lovely. mommy's best friend from college actaully is one... hopefully you'll meet auntie kimmy some day. :)

Auntie Maryann also sent you some books which was nice... i told her kids really are blessings... to remind parents of their own childhood and how we should never ever grow up! Of course there is a certain time and place for everything, but we should remember to be children at heart! <3

We also went to eat at Outback today... talk about carb overload. cheese fries, and split a burger w/daddy... the people were really nice though, they gave us free soup and salad. :) maybe b/c mommy is pregnant with you!! so they figured that we needed to eat more haha. We went to Nuskin today to get some stuff. Mommy wants to try to do more Nuskin business like grandma tsang so that she has more free time to spend with you when you are here. :) need to start planning for the future better now!!

Oh btw, since it seems like dr says you're not going to be coming out anytime soon, daddy will be going to the states next week. 10/12-19. Yes we'll miss him... but who knows, maybe he can buy some stuff for us and bring it back. hahaha. he does probably get to see grandma and grandpa too which is nice... and TORRANCE! i miss her too. you'll get to meet her i hope someday soon too when we visit to NJ where mommy grew up.

But keep growing!!! GROW STRONG and HEALTHY!!
Mommy and Daddy love you.
big hugs and kisses. xxxxooooo
