YowCH & Grace

00:05 We have added a page for Joseph’s birth. Please click here to visit.

14:15 Updated with more photos.

15:15 Forgot to mention, we shall be leaving KK Hospital for home by 18:00 today! Early discharge if no problems! Hooray!

16:45 Another update, the hospital procedure says that the mother can go home, but the child must stay at least 24 hours. By 18:00 today, it would only be 20.5 hours, so Joseph must stay overnight. Well, Joseph is on total breast feeding, so if the baby stays, the mother must stay, too. Therfore, we can’t go home until tomorrow morning 11 am.

Praise the Lord and thank Him for His blessing of this boy to us.

Yow Bak Hei, Joseph was naturally delivered at 9:25pm on 24 Nov 2008, weighing 3.2kg.

Both mother and son are fine, and the father is very happy. Esther and David are very delighted, too.

Grace is now in KK Hospital, waiting for the the arrival of our Baby 3. This morning’s check-up was fine, and Dr Tan advised that it is good to induce the baby. So here we are in Ward 8134, after the Prostin, waiting for the heavy contractions.

At the current situation, the baby would probably be born between mid-night and next morning. Long wait ahead.

Esther and David are now in school, they will probably come up to the ward to visit for a while, then go home with grand parents to wait for their little brother.

Updates to follow.

We have just returned from TYLin’s movie night, having watched Quantum of Solace.

Having seen Dr KT Tan on Monday, 10 Nov, here is yet another scan of the baby. He can pop out anytime now, but probably closer to the estimated due date of 26 November 2008.

Esther, David and YowCH had a one-night stay in a tent over at eFG’s Chatsworth camp last night (10 Oct 2008). Grace went home after the BBQ, she had to work on Saturday morning, so sad.

Those who slept outdoors: Paul, Hong Huei, Debbie, Elliot, Faith, Hong Kian, Sze Wee, Enoch, Ezra, Sonya, YowCH, Esther and David. Some photos:

Earlier, from 1 to 5 Oct 2008, YowCH cousin Huang Yin came for a holiday. We ate much and walked much. We went to the Zoo and Night Safari on Friday and went out around the CBD (with Yan and Ping Quen, too) on Saturday:

Today is Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Grace worked half-day in the morning, and the rest of us stayed home to prepare the place for Chee Kiong, Huang Yin and Yen-Yen’s arrival this evening.

The week before, we had a 4-day holiday in PJ, and at the end of it, on Sunday morning, Esther and David were interviewed for The Star, posing with the fire-engine.

Last Sunday, 28 Sept 2008 was the Singapore Formula 1 race, and we had the Lims and the Chan-yins over for dinner and to watch the live telecast. Wow, exciting race, especially watching on HD5 using the projector.

In the mean time, we had another scan of Baby 3 on 29 September 2008, please visit the baby here.

Hooray, we are in PJ now, enjoying the relaxing life of being children and grand children. We took the night train on 17 Sept and arrived on 18 Sept morning, reaching home before 7am! We will leave this Sunday (21 Sept) afternoon, reaching Singapore at night.

Last Monday, 15 Sept, Esther and David had drama presentation at their school. Esther was one of the witches in MacBeth and David was Romeo in Romeo and Juliet. Small roles only, actually, as most of the play was narrated and the play was highly condensed and only one scene or two, but it was pretty fun.
