Happy Chinese New Year!

Shane celebrates his second Chinese New Year. It hasn't been very festive just because we don't have any family here nor do we have many friends. It's kinda tough being in such a transient community. Anyhow, hopefully next year we settle in a new permanent place and start making friends we know we won't lose in a year.

For now, Chinese New Year this year was spent with Leanne and her friends who brought Yu sheng all the way from Singapore. We actually went trekking out to H-Mart to get the sashimi.

And yes we didn't have a big round dish, so we made do with a baking tray. Also, we forgot to get carrots and radish. So we made do with yellow noodles. I must say the noodle version was way better than the vegetables version.

Happy New Year everyone!!

Day 64 - Feb 4

We spotted a red mark on Shane's head yesterday. Don't know how we both managed to miss this over the last 9 weeks.

Luckily just the week before, Andrea did show me the exact same mark on Luke's  back and said that the ped said it's a birth mark. We would have freaked out if we hadn't spoken to Andrea. Never knew birth marks could be red (dotted) spots! Shane has got so many birth marks - the black dark ones - on his back and legs... I guess this one on his head just adds to his birth mark collection.

So we finally got to do our belated 拜年 with Grandma this morning. We have been so busy with visitors over during the CNY period, that we just didn't get it done.

Also had our first CNY visitors...
