Day 2: Kyle's first day in Melbourne

We arrived at Melbourne early in the morning at about 7am feeling tired and cold. But that did not dampen our spirits!! Nic, Cass and Ryan greeted us with smiles and hugs when they saw us at the arrival hall and informed us that Spain had won the previous match. They had not slept at all and actually come straight after watching the match to fetch us. So touched! We headed straight for breakfast at this place called Auction Room near their apartment. Very cool deco and staff. They served Aussie breakfast and we had our coffee to stay awake. The rest of the day was rest and relax as we napped, shopped and ate.

Much needed coffee

Kyle slept comfortably while we ate

This are the reasons why I enjoyed my Melbourne trip - Helpers to feed baby

Helpers to play with baby

Baby loves to relac one corner

My baby bundled like a dumpling

Outside my sister's apartment..Baby not so happy as he has so many clothings on

Still not so happy..cos we were indoors

Bud among the roses..

We tried this yummy choco cupcake that was a little chewy and the icing was heavenly

My sis loves SUSHI in Melb

Fresh and relatively cheap - Abt A$2.30 for one roll

Have u tried hot yam bubble tea? Shiok to drink in cold weather

My sis complained that her shoulders were breaking..after just 2 minutes carrying him

We had dinner at this wonderful Vietnamese Pho Restaurant at Footscray

My son had napkins for his dinner

Day 1: Kyle's 1st Melbourne flight on the A380

I was initially apprehensive whether we had made the right decision to take a 7 hr night flight to Melbourne. I had read in articles that babies did not take well to night flights and they ended up disturbing the sleep of almost every passenger on the plane. Thus I was extremely thankful that Kyle actually enjoyed his flight onboard and slept through most of the 7 hrs that we were in the air. The bassinet was a godsend and Kyle loved sleeping in it. The little zipper on top of the bassinet may have helped him to feel that he was safe sleeping in it.

Bidding farewell to daddy

Bye bye Singapore

Gong Gong made us promise to Skype him often

Walking towards our gate

Children had priority to board the plane first..Cool

Welcome back Son Godmama!

It seems like a long time but Shirley is back from her trip to Perth! When I went down to 9Pub on Friday night, everyone asked me, "Where's Shirley?". Haha! We had kopi at TCC CenterPoint on Sunday while she filled me in on the details of her trip. She bought lotsa stuff for Kyle but she did not forget to buy some magnets for me!!! So sweet, thanks dajie!!!

Where u looking at Kyle?

Still looking the wrong way baby..

Aren't they cute?? Dajie bought for Kyle to wear in Melb.

I loves these rompers from Pumpkin Patch

Super cute Mickey Mouse romper

Check out the back!

Leggings that I asked dajie to buy, stylo!

Dajie bought this customized CD that has songs with Kyle's name in it.

It is supposed to help a child remember his or her name. Cool!

My magnets, I love them!!!

Happy Father's Day Daddy Wong and Daddy Woon!!!

This year's Father's Day is especially special to Woon as it is the first Father's Day he is celebrating as a Father to Kyle. Since Kyle's birth, Woon had worked hard to take care and provide for us both. Words cannot describe how important he is to us and on this Father's Day, we would like to thank him. We love you Daddy Woon!
