Elva is 171 days (24 weeks) old.

This week has been busy for me as I was at work sites more than in office. The work is really piling up and not sure how long can I clear finish the backlog.

I went for my class after two weeks of break and there will be another week of break next week before my second test. Looking forward to my last exam for my degree and hope to graduate in November.

Jerlyn went for massage and shopping on her day off but did not buy anything.

We met Ming and Serene for chat at JEM and found that they going to PC2 again.

Due to the haze we got to stay indoors, especially for Elva. She is now only school and home. The Haze has reached 401 PSI which is hazardous, so we need to take precaution.

Jerlyn took a day off to do her health check, waxing and also shopping for Elva's walker and highchair. Eventually, she bought the walker and highchair at Kiddy Palace and Elva is enjoying her walker now. The highchair is a bit too big for her now, maybe when she grow older we will let her sit.

I went for my course at Singapore Post Centre and it was quite fun. Although I still got to think of the workshop that I organised but my manager would handle it. I still need to check on things. Hope my next course would come faster.

I was having a break from my studies for 2 weeks and now I got to go back to school again. With the haze, I got to wear the N95 mask.

We went to IMM with Jerlyn's Mum to get blanket for Elva as Teacher Nurul want us to change the blanket twice a week.

I have been going to the site almost everyday so was not feeling well for the past few days.

We let Elva try the swimming pool again and she love it.

We went to Jurong Point Kiddy Palace to look for Elva's high chair and walker but it was out of stock. We get to eat Ding Tai Feng that we haven't eat for a long time.

Huijun came and pass me our stuff that we bought in America. She came out my place by driving and at first I got shocked as I know her for almost 10 years and first time see her drive. She finally got her licence in America.

We went to Zhi Qiang's house to collect our stuffs from America and met his wife, Aor and son Ashton too. We managed to take pictures of our new home which is just opposite Zhi Qiang's house.

We went to Robinson at Centrepoint to buy our thermal storage flask for Elva, and end up buying the Avent Blender bundle. We also bought Cold Stone Creamery back.

We started to use the swimming pool that we bought for Elva and she was having fun swimming in it. But the water use is quite a large amount, so we can't be letting her play in the pool all the time.

Elva stayed at home for another two days as she was still coughing. Jerlyn's mum took care of Elva for one day and was tired out by Elva. Jerlyn took the next day leave to take care of Elva.

We went to Jerlyn's company charity event - Bare your soles - and walked 2.5 km with Elva in stroller. The day was very hot so Elva tired out easily and have rashes coming out.

I went for my company staff dinner held at our work site and won the 14th prize lucky draw. It was a Adidas bag and I use it as a diaper bag for Elva. Everyone one in the company got the prize as my management want everyone to have a prize. So from the 42nd prize to the first prize, everyone went home with a prize. The door gift was not bad too with one Adidas polo tee and $150 voucher for everyone. It was really much better than last year, but the food was quite plain.
