Backdated Post: Blessing in Disguise!

No doubt it was unfortunate to fall & be on mc for the whole week, turned out to be a blessing to be able to witness baby Kara's first few steps!

Baby Kara was so excited to realise she could walk, she couldn't stop walking & chuckling. Lol

Cyclone Road Race

Mummy took part in her first mass start road race today.  Here's the gang of cool JRs!

Support crew was great!

Moving towards the start line...

Midway through the race I was telling myself I didn't enjoy the race.  The pace was not super fast (slower than my weekly Thurs monster training ride) but tactical instead.  1 rider would sprint forward & everyone else starts to chase then pace drops so the person in front didn't want to be pulling for long & everyone was just waiting for each other.  The female cycling scene is also very small, there's just a handful of rides but surprisingly bitchy!

Unfortunately I got a crash < 20m from the finishing line.

The lady who sprinted so hard she lost control of her bike & brought me down too.

Not in a good shape but still merry-making!

Ended up visiting the 24 hour emergency @ 12+

Pity! 20 mins before the finish line so it's a DNF =(

Backdated Post: 1st visit to Macs!

Our usual Saturday routine = Lunch outside with baby Kara!

Baby Kara is getting more independent these days.. wanna self feed all the time!

She's happy just eating the fork!

A stroll by the beach after lunch!

It's amazing how much Daddy has changed these days.  We managed to stroll from Playground to East Coast MacDonalds & back!

Baby Kara's 1st visit to Macs!

Super impressed the Happy Meal comes with healthy choices e.g. steam corn! Of course, NO soft drinks or fries at this age!!!

We were here @ NSRCC on 2 consecutive days for Elise & Joan's 1st Bday party! Both Kris & Pat has done such a great job organising the 1st Bday bash! Had a great time catching up with the other September mummies & the babies had great fun too!

Princess theme for Elise.  The babies each got a tiara!

Joan's party has got lots of entertainment for the kids!

Waterplay, jumping castle..

Wardrobe game with Daddy.
@ 1 year old, Baby Kara is lots of fun! She's not afraid even if confined in a dark, tiny space. lol

Backdated Post: Sick on the actual 1st Bday

Poor Baby Kara woke up on her actual bday feeling super weak after vomiting throughout the night =(

Especially went Bakerzin after work to get 2 slices of Bday cake for Kara!

Darling was feeling a lot better the following day.

Aftermath of the 1st bday party was a mega tired baby Kara!

A picture tells a thousand words!

Took us almost 2 weeks to open all her presents!
