Finally, we can park the car in the garage...

By -
There's been a lot of talks and investigation etc on the renovation of my parents' place, in preparation of us moving in with them for good...

Kitchen is the place we've decided... we need a new one. Even though the old one has more nice solid wood, even good wood, too... to get a new one everything has to go.

Anyway, after a series of quotes and so on, we then got someone recommended to us for the work.. and he then recommended some other kitchen place....

One thing lead to another... so the builder guy is doing the work to make the garage usable as well as painting the rooms etc etc... but he's got a holiday coming up in Sept... So... he was here to talk about quotes yesterday... his team of builders were here this morning knocking off the wall and doing the work for the garage.

So finally, tonight when ebs comes home... he can park the car in the garage... of course, except that... we would be moving back to Pakuranga for a bit on Sunday... but still good though!
Finally!! Internal access garage! :)

But packing up the kitchen was fun... we were only.. 25-30% done... the builders will be back on Sat to rip off the whole kitchen. Man there are A LOT of stuff! Makes me wonder what it'd be like when I'm packing up my own one for moving! Doh!

Then I remembered that she looks more like me when I was a baby... so.. I put in my baby photo.. Result # 3 - 3% more like mum... (hmm...) Oh well :P Here we have it :P Sally

First day at Daycare

By -
Today is the first day Emma starts daycare. She will be in daycare on Tuesday and Thursdays from now. I also have the person from property management company coming over to take photos of our house for renting at 2pm. So, I was busy cleaning and tidying up the house while she's at daycare. After I got everything done and just got out of the shower, I got a call from the daycare. At first I thought, oh no... but then, they only called to let me know that Emma is okay... just in case I'm wondering but feel bad to call. So apparently she had her bottle shortly after daddy dropped her off. Then went to sleep for 2.5 hours... Had another 200ml and was playing on the floor when they called me around 12:45. She told me that Emma is a really easy baby, so far. Sounds very good! I think she behaves better there!! At home, sometimes she won't go to sleep... gets too happy... Hmm... :P At least we know she's okay in daycare... and mum is okay today, very busy actually! :P Sally

Woo finally rolling over caught on video!

By -
This morning when I was getting Emma out of the bed for her 2nd feed, I couldn't find the camera's memory card. Oh well, so I put her down for tummy time anyway and thinking, I bet she's gonna roll over this time and we'd miss it on video again! Yep! Damn! Later I found the memory card and put her on video again... but it only has 7 mins left! Bummer... I thought she might roll over just as the camera is running out of memory... no no, she didn't. Very close so many times though! But now I know what the secret is for her rolling over... She'd have one arm straight and pushing hard, the other tucked in... and she always likes to wiggle to a certain direction very hard... and babies have heavier heads :P So... she just keeps pulling towards one direction and... way she goes... rolls over. Finally... in the afternoon, when I was playing with her on tummy time again... video on... after so many close ones... she finally rolls over and caught on camera! Yah! (These p...
