First glimpse of you.

...and I could not take my eyes off the ultrasound screen. You were just a day after 8 weeks being in my tummy.

I could still remember the joy that you brought us since that day. Knowing of your existence from the test and actually seeing the 'beanie' you got me all so excited of how real it was! :) I remember immediately having a mental note of things to purchase once I saw you for the first time. 

First from the mental list, week-by-week pregnancy books. Two books, at minimum! I wanted to be prepared and anticipate every milestones throughout my journey of carrying you. Lol. No, your Mama isn't the laid back see how it goes kinda pregger it seemed. I ended up with three pregnancy books and one hypno-birthing book.

Secondly, the Tracy Anderson: Pregnancy Project workout DVDs.... and a gym-ball. Yes, though I did not admit it, getting fat was something I was quite extremely worried about! Haha. Luckily I have your Baba to entertain all my bizarre needs and wants. Oh did your father and I not go the super extra mile in finding that set of DVDs. We couldn't find it anywhere in the bookstores, music shops, baby shops... We ended up getting them from Amazon shipped to a Malaysian friend running a business of US imported goods, then get 'em posted to our address. All-in-all it took almost two months until I got hold ofhe DVDs from the date I decided I wanted it. Heeeeeeee. Now, guess how many times I actually worked-out during my pregnancy?
