Happy Easter ! Had a great long weekend break at Mum and Dad's ! Lots and lots of Easter Eggs ! Between both of us, we had 10 Easter Eggs ! Enclosed are the photos from Easter....Also went a Greyhound Race at the Walthamstow Stadium, where Nanny used to work....Won a few ££ !! Hehehee ! ( Lucky us, otherwise, we'll be living on beans and eggs and bread for the whole week ! ). And together with all that excitement, we had a great Sunday Roast, and a Barbecue on Monday for lunch ! Loved the sausages and Bacon and Banana thingy ! Mark and Mum were the great chefs of the day ! Great Job done, all the 9 tummies filled up to the brim. We also had lots of food to bring back with us to London. Nearly finished the soup today.....enough to make another bowl of soup.....My lunch tommorrow ! I made '' tag something '' pasta today which I messed up really badly, so no more cooking tag-pasta next time. It was really crappy ! Here, nerdo and gang, you guys can have that pasta while we enjoy the rest of the food from Easter ! Some beef stew, some roast potatoes...and some roast turkey. Oh, and my dessert that I really like : Steam Pudding ! It was really good with lots of custard ! Food Food Food ! I love the English food here !!! You guys should come here and try our the food here, I love mum's cooking ! If you guys look carefully, there's a very special Easter Egg given by Ian's Grandma. It has got my name on it, with a little yellow chick. We'll save that egg and eat it last ! Oh Nerdo, don't be jealous....We had a dozen Creme eggs too ! Haahaaaa ! Isn't it worth a trip to England now ??? Guess Tash ( Mark's GF ) had a great time at Mum and Dad's place too ! You guys must be soooo jealous now ! We all had a great great weekend !

Updates about Baby JJ ! He is now 28 weeks + 2 days old. A tiny little baby but growing stronger everyday. This is for you, Baby JJ, hope you are on your way !

To the one we love so much,
We cannot wait to feel your touch,
To hear your laughs, to see your smiles,
Will help us through the many miles.

Although I cannot see you,
I still know you are there,
You're warm and snug inside me,
and require gentle care.

May God help us keep you safe,
And always keep you strong, we pray,
We love you right before we planned you,
And we love you more now that we've got you !

28 weeks, baby's little balls may start to descend now ! Length : about 14.58 inches or 35 cm now ! NO wonder I am soooo huge, like a watermelon ! Or is it due to all the Easter Eggs that I had ?? JJ is about 2 pounds 4 ounces now ( 1 kg ) ! Eeeeks ! Back aches and hip aches ! Aching all over now ! He has got eyebrows and eyelashes now, and the hair is still growing ( if he has any ). Might turn out that he is going to come out hairless, like his daddy ! The eyelids open and the the eyes are completely formed now. Muscle tone is gradually improving, hopefully like Ian's ! His lungs are capable of breathing air, but might find it a struggle to breathe properly if born now, so I guess he is going to stay there for the next few weeks ! Obviously, he can recognize his daddy's voice now....He was kicking a lot when Ian came back from work ! Saw a little bump sticking out when Ian was back.

About me ??? Updates : Leg cramps at times, leg aches, hip aches, back aches ! Aches and pains everywhere....

Starting from this week it is now third trimester into our pregnancy. Looks like we are very well equipped for the arrival of our little JJ. We've just ordered the little micralite pram this weekend, hopefully it arrives soon. Other things....Lots and lotsa baby clothes....a little gym mat...More toys, and mum's found a baby cot that Mark and Ian used to use and chewed at the top. And a Silver Cross pram, just like Mary Poppins'....can't wait to use it. Mum's been busy making new mattress and covers for this little one, and won't be long before he's out. Little Jamie is definitely going to be a very spoilt baby.

We have 2 antenatal classes coming soon in May, and I've got a driving lesson booked for this Easter Sunday. Gosh, hope my dangerous Formula 1 driving will not scare the instructor.

27 weeks 2 days today ! Wheeee ! Another 13 weeks to go. Easter is coming soon and we'll be back at Mum and Dad's again in 2 days' time. Will be seeing Mark and Tash ( :o) Finally it's dad's time to see Tash for the first time ). Sooo exciting ! Easter eggs, Easter Bunnies ! Will be watching a Doggie Race this Saturday with the whole family. My first time and it's so exciting. can't remember what kinda doggies they are, but they run round and round chasing the little bunny rabbit that works on motor / battery.

This reminds me....Where is my Donkey ? I have lost my precious little gray donkey that mum and dad gave me for xmas 2005. Damn ! It's gotta be here somewhere, but i just can't find him anywhere. I will continue my serach for my missing donkey.

Nice dinner....Bread and butter with soup. Yummy ! Mum made us a great meal, so saves me preparing dinner for tonight. Might have my steam pudding and treacle tart later for dessert...Just by itself. Unfortunately no custard at home.

Little Jamie Boy is kicking a lot today. Think I am going to explode. He is kicking me now as I am typing this too. I am super heavy now, i think my weight is about i dunno, a wild guess.....Maybe 50 kg. Little JJ is about 2 pounds now. No wonder he feels so heavy inside. He is about 14 1/2 inches in length. I can now predict his sleeping and waking up pattern...He is most active at about 8.30 pm onwards....and also quite a lot in the morning, when his daddy gets ready for work. Unfortunately, the heavy weight in front is giving me backaches...Aargh ! In addition to that, CRAMPS ! Leg cramps in the middle of the night is very annoying coz it disrupts my sleep. For the past few days, sleep is very disturbed coz I wake up about every hour....I want my sleep and I need my sleep !!!

Mum and Dad are finally back from America on Saturday ! The drive to Heathrow airport was quite good....And seeing mum and dad again was really great ! 4 big luggages and a baby play pen and a baby bouncer.....This is going to one spoilt little baby ! Also a big luggage full of baby clothes and things.....Gosh ! Also lots and lots of new maternity clothes for our wardrobe ! Something else to wear besides my favourite Elly Belly top !

Baby JJ is 26 weeks and a day today. Still growing and growing....Little JJ is as healthy as ever, always kicking and poking. Mum's managed to get the Silver Cross pram that once belonged to JJ's Uncle Mark and Daddy, and amongst other things she got out from the garage : Fisher Price toys, rubber duckies, a baby cot , a knitted shawl , a pram cover , baby towels , and my favourite : a cute little yellow potty that was used by Uncle Mark and his Daddy ! can't wait to see everything assembled and up in the room !

Now that Uncle Mark had just officially ''escaped'' from GHC, lotsa time for him to come round to our place ! yay ! We'll be seeing Mark this Wednesday and having him here till Friday is quite exciting ! I can watch Mark and Ian play Bubble Bobble and Sonic the Hedgehog game and other games on playstation / gamecube !!

Finally got my licence back again with the right photo. Got to look at the Highway Codes again ( blah ! ) and then maybe get some lessons, hopefully my big tummy doesn't get in the way ! Would like to drive Ian to work and back again with the baby next time....
