Project Jumpstarted?

Ok, after much delay and procrastination, I finally started to work on my lil project. I'm still taking baby steps. But hope something positive will come out of it.
The project actually started with a simple thoughts. Over the years, Hubby has been buying lotsa toys for his nephews and niece. A lot of them have become redundant and is sitting in baskets in the storeroom now. So I thought of collecting them and selling to a second-hand shop that deals with children's stuff so I can earn some credits and buy stuff for the lil one.
Then a thought came to mind: Why dun I collect used toys, clothes and even books and distribute them to children's homes in SG? So I started looking for these organisations online and got a few that may be suitable. But, the initiative stopped there. Haha...
Today, I sent out the first email to enquire and there is some changes to the initial plans as the Home has a wishlist of their own which does not include any of the 3 categories of items. Well, let's wait for the reply and see how it goes. At the very least, I took the first step. :)

A New Project

Ok, so I've stayed at home long enough to feel restless and useless. With the arrival of Dallen, I was thrown off-balance for a while. But now that we have settled down and I know how to handle him better, I feel the need to really do something. No doubt I will have a lot on my hands once the date for our departure is confirmed (and that won't be very long from now), but I think I can still afford the time to do something more.
So I've come up with an idea for a new project and if it kicks off and is sustainable, I can even bring the idea to Indon. While researching for this project, I actually found what I can be doing once we return from Indon and Dallen goes to school.
Well, it's too early to be excited but I think it's workable. Once I have the programme up and running, I'll leave more details. So if you dun see any updates, that means the idea didn't work.
*keeps fingers crossed*

December - A Month of First(s) For The Lil One

Daddy sent the car for servicing. So he got his first bus ride.
His first visit to NUH (ICU). Daddy wanted to show Grandaunt his photo cos he's not allowed into the ICU. Sadly, Grandaunt didn't make it before meeting him.

His first Chinese wedding dinner. Mummy's buddy got hitched!

His first pacifier experience. We wanted to hold it off till he's teething. But he was sucking his fingers too much and we decided to give it to him.

He did his first complete flip! He was trying so hard for so many times and could only manage half flips where he laid on his side. This time round, he finally did it!

Dirty fella...the first solid food intake: Pumpkin and sweet corn puree.

His first passport photo!

Ho! Ho! Ho! Baby's first Christmas!

And after Christmas, of cos, is New Year's Day!
