  4. hello88, i also had faint line...meaning the hormones, can't remember the name of it is not so strong yet...but baby is definitely there!!!
  5. some tiles broke during the delivery.... the wall of the kids room were hacked to relocate the door
  6. Met uncle today to check the tiles...gosh, he was an hour late! I rushed down from work and had to wait for him for an hour...tired arh!!! Anyways, yesterday's debris was cleared. Here's what I have today... the tiles.... the shutter guy came down today and met uncle and they discussed on how the work for him should be carried out and they reached a conclusion. I am glad, I saved 500 bucks by spending 20 minutes (online and calling)
  7. booy, this design is from both Jason and myself. My mom needed something very very simple, and we came up with this Pet, it's $250 He uses tries to incorporate some ideas like IDs does lah...
  8. glad that it was not anything serious...but hor, I'm curious what did HDB convey to Kiat...info goes haywire when the men answer the calls
  9. Uncle did my Mom's TV console... Mom is very happy with this and we paid a small sum for this job
  10. actually it depends on how stable the pregnancy is my gunae advised me against travelling as I get my spotting in my 5th week due to the implantation. so in the end, we need to stop all forms of "activities" and travelling. As for the pregnancy checks...i found out my baobeis in my 4th week!!! For my gal, I had a very strong feeling that I am pregnant when menses was "late" for a week. Tho mine was never punctual...for my boy, my gal was the one who told me I am preggy even before I am due for my next cycle! But i brush her off lah...cos I know she always wanted a sibling Then my Hubby also suspect I am pregnant soon after...I was oblivious of what is brewing in my tummy! But its good to be confirmed by the gynae that you are pregnant It's so exciting!!!
  11. I have yet to go and check out the water feature. if u guys had not gotten, probably i can share my findings when I go and check it out in about 2 weeks' time?
  12. hello88, we are shifting in to our EM and my mom already headache! My boy loves to climb up and down and we die die must block the stairs as soon as we move in...I guess it's gonna be good work out for me!
  13. hmm...go tell him! He always thinks it's easy work for me...just call and call...I am also the one sourcing for the other stuff, and feeding him the info.
  14. Thanks for this feedback. I will still go ahead with the shutter as I feel that this will be more convenient I like to have the open up feel of the balcony and like an "outdoor" feel for the kids to play there too!
  15. it's actually pretty lucky to have your mom to help. I also have my mom to help, at least we know that the kids are in good hands If I do not have my Mom, most likely I will not be able to work!
  16. booy, i also paiseh to disturb the neighbours...but for a nice house...bobian leh aubrey, it's really messy, show your mom my pics!!! Hi Wendy, thank you for taking the time off to meet us Hubby is in love with your WIW and bookshelf, while I am in love with the KITCHEN and bookshelf!!!
  17. I'm sorry to hear about your loss...i think we will get carried away when we talk about kids and all! Go go, go gynae and check...u may be a parent-to-be already
  18. so i'll keep u updated on my progress hacking is more or less done by today...they will clear up the debris pretty soon i guess. THe hacking of the walls should start tomorrow.
  19. i had my first born when I was 24yo. Friends around me were still single or attached, no plans for kids or still having their twosome honeymoon. For us, it's endless feeding, changing diapers and sleepless nights. But frankly speaking...being a parent is the best experience one can have Hello88, i think i know what u mean...i actually enjoy shopping for the kids and my priority is the 2 kids! Sorry Hubby really has to take a back seat for the time being Today is my labour day!!! My boy turned ONE today!
  20. Yah...both also c-sec. 1st was emergency...labour just started, didn't even had a good fell of the contractions and gynae broke my water to speed up the process, in the ens...realised my gal poo-ed in wombsville. bobian...had to go emergency c-sec. 2nd was fear od scar rupture as i felt tenderness around the old scar near my 36th week and gynae didn't want to take the risk...so do we. We love kids too! But expenses really high and for the time being, we will not have another one unless like u mentioned, we had a windfall!
  21. I am meeting uncle tomorrow. Will give you my english quote if i have...else a chinese one will be his "standard" handwritten quote.
  22. LLCC, I emailed sunshade.sg several times but NO ONE contact me! I gave up! I source myself and am meeting the guy tomorrow. Will let u know the outcome if he is good
  23. I managed to source my own shutter vendor and the quote was like a few hundred bucks cheaper than the one who does the aluminium for uncle. Uncle urged me to use my own contact as I can save a few hundred bucks and it is really very useful. I agree with him, and we are all meeting up tomorrow! My tiles are coming tomorrow noon!!! Meeting uncle at around 7.30pm to check the tiles and advise him on which tiles goes where and how the tiling is to be done So happy with the progress!
  24. Went up to our place today to see the progress. It was pouring buckets and we saw this at the carpark. At the door... I didn't go in as it was just too messy and they were still hacking. Hubby went in to give them the drinks and snacks we got and took some pictures The electricity tripped a few timnes when we were there due to the rain. The electric box is actually in the access balcony and rain splashed in causing it to trip and I called Uncle to inform him. He is aware and had made arrangements for the roofing He is so pro...
  25. i got 3 heads too. 2 big rings,one smaller ring for brewing soup etc...easier to control fire or cooking kids' food
