Story of a (temporary) housewife.....

Our (not entirely) home made 3 course Christmas dinner.
Why? Because we are cheapskate to pay for festive restaurant price and we dont wanna risk having a crying baby affecting others.

1. Appetiser - Salmon platter (only the christmas tree is home made... hahah)

2. Main - Rabbit!!! hahaha

3. Brownie with ice cream...

Varkenburg - Christmas markt - 17th dec

Wet but fun day .... nothing much, just shop around... hahaha most things come from China n it feels as if we are back to those chinese market except the prices are in Euros

This is the supposingly singing christmas tree... see the candles on the tree, the move n sing ..... aiyo just a weak effort by the little village to earn some tourist money

A Nativity scene at Christmas mass

In an attempt to be more active in the catholic church, we gladly let Kirsten serve when invited to be baby Jesus. And eventually we even volunteered to be the Holy Family in the little procession of the nativity scene. I am really glad that through Kirsten, God has opened up a channel for us to be more involved in the church. And even better, Sander (who initially is not very positive about this catholic church) is happily involve and reading the lines in Church. Haha I had to do the least but am seriously glad for this. Don't really know how to describe it but Thank God again for leading our way and doing His work.

Am looking forward to making arrangement next year for Kirsten's baptism when her godfather will come visit us in Belgium

Happiest giggling from Kirsten so far... on this very Xmas eve

I am back...

... in my pre-Kirsten pants!!! Haha although not all but am still glad. 3 Months!!! Well no more reason for shopping for new wardrobe when getting back to work. Actually I dont even wanna shop cos of this whole economics crisis thingie. For all we know, we both can be out of job tommorrow.

A sad thing to mention today is I lost my happy baby to vaccin #2. Ever since last thur, Kirsten has been grouchy n stingy with her goodmood. We are back to the days that I need to carry her almost the entire day n thus resulting in me sitting behind the computer, typing with one hand n carrying her in the other. She has been sleeping a lot n in panic mood a lot.... urghhhh v draining!

heehee the thought of next month is keeping me alive :)

I AM GOING HOME NEXT MONTH!!!!

ah... finally I can say this, it is just next month that I will be going home. I am still not so sure about how's life in Singapore with my lil one but I am very certain that I wanna go home!!!

Yippee~~
