Visit by the girls

The SHSS gals came for a visit last evening together with their kiddos. It was so nice having them over. I missed the last gathering coz of unpacking (actually last 2 coz the latest was after ER popped) and was so happy they came over :)

Dawn was like I was before ER popped: slow-moving and anxious about having the baby come out soonest possible (now that it's TIME!) Was telling Mr Liow that if she happen to be in labour during the gathering last evening, we can all go and wait for her (if my MIL doesn't disallow me to leave the house) and she'll reach there in no time. hehe. But baby Issac is still happy in his mummy's womb, too comfy to leave and face the world. So, mummy just has to continue waiting.

The last time they came, it was in March 2008, just a month before we left for Tucson. It was just AN and Cailyn then. Cailyn was only 4 months old, and AN almost a year old. Yesterday's gathering was sooooo different!!! The kiddos were playing in the room, Josh and AN in the study room (just the 2 of them)...hehe. AN enjoyed playing with Josh since the first time they played together at Shirley's place in July and had been telling me about the gor gor who played with her. And she remembers baby Genevieve who follows them around. And then Josh stayed close to AN while she had dinner. Even MIL noticed and commented that Josh and AN get along very well. hehe.

Once upon a time, too much noise from kids get on my nerves a little. But as a mummy of 2 now, hearing voices of the children playing in the room makes me happy. It somehow livens up a home. Like dogs, kids are indeed blessings. It would have been perfect if Baileys and Maen were around then. They loved kids too and would have enjoyed attention.

Up next will be Dawn's BIG DAY, and then Yifang's. Can't help checking in on Dawn's blog a few times a day in case she pops and updates first hand information on her blog. So, 10, please keep us updated ya?
