In the Thick of Things

Baby is growing surely and steadily, but not without the usual baby's complaints- of gas, slight reflux, refusal to sleep and of course the sound bytes that get everyone's full attention. Wife and I had our full shares to be busy about in the day to give DIL some rest to recharge after the nightly 'unrest' in attending to baby's two-hourly demand of milk. Good and nutritious food, religiously prepared by wife daily, is an absolute necessity to fuel DIL's stamina and to recuperate from the trauma of childbirth.

Still we find time to have some good lunches in the huge shopping complex NEXX nearby, or we occasionally drive to Chinatown to savior our favorites, ie. frog porridge. In any case, we try not to over-eat lest the consumption  is imbalanced to the physical out-put. At our age, health is of paramount importance. (I always wonder whether wife and I would live long enough to witness baby's wedding...just a wistful thinking as we would  probably be in our nineties... dreaming is always sweet and harmless.. yes..no?)

Home in KL is left to the care of niece who comes daily to feed Miss Euro, our doberman and to water our plants. Hard to imagine its present condition. Anyway the issue is minor compare to the 'job' in hand.

Before we fly back to KL in the early morning of the 29th, we are presently stuck in the thick of things. As I now sign off this post, the sound bytes are reverberating in the whole house... I have to leave now.
