a lil sumthing for Daddy

I knew I have to do this on my own.. Oh no.. How come such news can be so difficult to deliver? Gosh.. I wreck my brain thinking of ways to surprise him with the news.. Should I go straight forward with the news, or should I surprise him with this lil happy news?? I know my dear husband very well.. So I decided to surprise him indeed.. I gotta admit I sucks at making surprises but one the contrary, my hubby was very good at that! And I am so glad I got a lucky catch..haha..

I asked around for ideas but all came back pretty same.. Most of it was go straight forward with it.. Then I came across this savng plan that I was having and thought ..hey.. Since life in Singapore is so much about practicality, why not give a practical kinda surprise?? So I went around looking for a piggy bank.. I also went to several shopping centre to get one but all was in vain.. I was a lil frustrated..how could it be so difficult to find even a small piggy bank.. where the hell these parents bought piggy banks for their kids anyway.. or perhaps it has become a thing of a past.. I thought!

Then I came across Smiggle.. This shop that sells stationaries with all sort of colors.. I chose baby blue instead of my favourite purple cause some how purple is SO not a baby color.. hahaha.. cost me $19.90 for a "piggy bank"..but what I like about it was it comes with a shape of a PENGUIN! hahaha.. a cute one infact.. reminds me of that Madagascar show.. That sneaky and smart penguins.. hahaha.. devilishly smart I would say.. Not that I want my baby to turn out that way..just that its kinda cute.. Rather than buying the ones in a shape of a PIG... thats GROSS!
I made a lil note that says,

"Hello Daddy,
This is for my college fund..
Thank u,
Love,
Baby"

I dun wanna get all mushy about it so I made it short and simple.. yet surprising enough to my hubby standard.. hahaha...

I kept it near his side of the bed and went to sleep.. cause I know he will be home late tonight.. so..its kinda nice to surprise someone with a happy smile..

Beautiful start

When I first found out I was pregnant, I was totally shocked! I didnt expect it totally.. I stood in the bathroom looking blankly at my testkit. That was my second testkit. Bought my first test kit from Watsons for $6.90 so when it shows positive, I was like.. "oh for $6.90, something may go wrong some where.." So I went to Watsons again to get ClearBlue.. a brand I can rely and trust..When again it shows positive.. I stood there blankly.. A lot of things went into my mind.. nonetheless.. deep down I felt a mixture of feelings and happy was definitely one of them..

I didnt know what to do.. I didnt know what to tell my dear husband.. that he was right..lol..  He has been pushing me to do the test when he realized my mood was kinda "off" lately..But I declined cause ..oh well, I thought it was just one of those days.. lil I didnt realized that I was 2 months overdue..

It took me one week to finally approached my dear hubby and broke the news.. I went to Smiggle and bought this Baby Blue Penguin bank.. I wrapped it up nicely and hang a lil note that says,

" Hello Daddy, This is for my college fund. Thank u.. Love, Baby"

He smiled when he opened the note.. Somehow I knew he kinda expect this lil bundle of joy..
