Blessed Baby, En En is Series - A French Affair

I attribute Baby En's health and his feisty temperament to Aunty Zhongqiang's yummy cooking and the arty French culture... I really believe the trip to France has done wonders to Baby En's development albeit while he was only 5 mths in my womb!

To date, we are eternally grateful to Aunty for not only hosting us, but also her efforts in ensuring we are well fed and comfortable. Every night, we would go back to her home in anticipation of steaming, yummy food, and the congenial conversations where she dosed out bits & pieces of advice to heed as parents.. Hmm, not sure if Uncle's artistic talent in oil painting had rub off on En, or Xiaomei's fluent grasp of the French language, but I sure like to think En's temperament may 've been somewhat influenced by the French - fiery and passionate! haks!

For all that Baby En is today, we thank Aunty Zhongqiang and her family!

Blessed Baby, En En is Series - From the Beginning

While some parents may attribute their kids' looks to themselves, in my case,I really attribute Baby En's cute looks to the very many people that we have been blessed to meet and know.. and the thoughtful & kind deeds they have done for Baby En..

One of these people is Huilin, who bought us this ubber cute baby pic early on in the pregnancy. I attribute much of En's looks to this pic!

The dark round eyes, the chubby cheeks, the snubby nose, the fluffy brown hair, and most precocious of all, the expressive grin, all bear much resemblance to the Baby En i see today..

I have never much believe that looking at cute baby pics will be of much help, so except for this poster she bought me, I do not have any others at all.. and *sheepishly*, I did not even put the poster up till the last trimester.. only when i began to wonder how Baby En would look, i hasten to put this poster near my bed as looking at this impish baby made me brought much smiles to my face..

Hence, I believe, from the Beginning, that these little but infinitely kind touch have left its print on Baby En, and for this Baby En and us have many people to thank, and for his looks, much thanks to Huilin and the poster baby!

Botak En (21 Mar 06)

Straight after the Photoshoot, we decide to trim En's hair, as it was getting tangled with all his grabbing of his own hair..

However, it turned out that En got his head all shaved instead, as trimming was out of the question (according to the babysitter, he looks awful with bits of short hair!!)

So this is how dear En looks like now - shiningly BALD!! haha!

Catch Baby En and other cute Kiehl's babies' pics at the new Kiehl's counter in Robinson, Raffles City.

En's Photoshoot

It was a hilarious and exuberant day.. and I remembered 4 yrs ago when Eric did our wedding photo shoot, it had been just as fun and exhilirating. It had seemed just like yesterday when i was posing in my wedding gown na hubby in his suit..

But for the shoot this time round, with the wailing baby in my arms, it all seems surreal.. and watching En as he giggled and laughed brought a funny feeling in my chest .. But what had me feeling real proud was seeing hubby with the baby en.. that sense of bonding was simply beyond words!!!

More than the beautiful pictures is this sense of experience... Many thanks to Eric, who has captured many of such important moments in our life.. with these photos, all our feelings, experiences are immortalised within them..

The photos bespeak a journey.... and the one we share with Baby En - It has really just begun!
