It's twins!

Last week was a hectic week. I gotta look after my active Aloysius on my own, day and night, cos my hubby was on reservist too. Though Aloysius was a very good boy, but it’s still rather tiring on my part. Nowadays, he had stopped “ransacking” the drawers in the kitchen. He would open the drawer and take out one or two things that he still wanted to explore, then close the drawer back :). Sometimes, he would put back what he had taken back into the drawer.
Aloysius now understands commands. When we asked him where is who, he will go to the respective rooms to find. When we asked him where is “Uncle Donald”, he will find my sis’s laptop and stare at the screen. His beloved “Uncle Donald” is in America and they communicated in Skype usually. Yesterday, when I walked out of the bedroom, he rushed out behind me. Then I told him to “please close the door”. Surprisingly, he stopped and turned back to close the door. So cute…

I saw Dr. Chew last Friday. He did a scan and we saw two sacs with very regular heartbeats in each sac! My hubby teared a little with joy. One sac is smaller than the other though. Dr. Chew said that we gotta wait till 3 months for them to stabilize. Sometimes, one will absorb the other. Hmm… But we saw two hearts beating already. Are they identical? We gotta wait till they are born then we will know. We are hoping for a gal and a boy :) I have started “tai jiao” a little. Not very faithfully yet. I hope I will have the time and energy to do “tai jiao” better. I will be seeing Dr. Chew again on 5 Sep. I guess I gotta see him fortnightly.

I was thinking whether I have great sixth sense or is it just coincidental or is it just a dream comes true... A few months ago, I was thinking of how nice it is to have a twin, so that I do not have to go through another caesaerean for number 3. Just a few days ago, my sis was telling me perhaps I am having a twin. Is this the power of the subconscious mind?

After the visit to Dr. Chew, we went to the Botanical Gardens. Aloysius enjoyed himself very much. There were another two gals who were on their way home. Aloysius played with them for a while and followed them all the way to the gate. hahaha... After that, we went to The Grace at Buona Vista for our dinner.
