Couple of days ago, Inn Loon smsed me to let me know that one of his neighbours selling baby stuff in Alexandra Distripark is having a moving out sale. Gave him a call this morning to ask him to recee for me to see if they have prams and car seats which they did.
So we went down around noon to take a look at the prams but most of them are too big for our car (Nissan March) boot. Hence, looked at other stuff and found a really good deal for a baby cot ($100 for display set U.P $399). Had to think long and hard about it (since the baby is not due for another 6 months) before deciding it is too good a deal to resist and bought it.
At the same time, saw a playpen which was ALSO a really good deal ($39, U.P. $109 with mattress) and bought it too! Sorry, it is already packed (no intention to unpack until 6 months later) so not much of a picture.
After we lugged the stuff onto the car, Inn Loon invited us over to his shop for surprise! Apparently, his mum airfreighted some baby crib sets over from U.S. to match some of the wallpapers that they are selling. They are no longer selling the wallpapers, so decided to give us a set. In his Dad's words... it is the only set in Singapore... got money also cannot buy. His Mum's words? "Actually I was keeping one set for my grandchildren, but it looks like it will take a while more before they come." (Inn Loon, FYI, is a nice guy who is very much single and unattached, drop me an email if you are interested. :P ) Anyway, thanks Inn Loon for the gift !
So whats in the mail? A handmade quilt! All the way from Canada!
Look at the detail! Its months of work!
Zoe decided to pose on it...
Ooops... forgot to cover my diapers....
Mummy decided that she needs nicer clothes to go with the quilt...
Here's a mood shot... wow... potential model....
And guess who is it from? Aunt Sylvia!
probably because she is tired...
Adeline also mailed over some cute shoes (that are still too big for her now) and a cap
The Fisher Price rocker that her friends are on gets a bit warm in the afternoon... so we bought a new pink rocker (its either pink or blue) to put her on in the afternoons. It has holes in it so its much cooler.

Sidenote... being typical Singaporeans... after the announcement of Shimin's pregnancy, they have started to bet on whether it will be a guy or a girl. Apparently, loser will host the baby shower....
