happiness isn't a myth

so we're back from our little getaway, which was also to celebrate our two years of marriage. yup, it's been two years. funny, we've never celebrated anniversaries pre-marriage (we just couldn't be bothered to agree on a date). but with jigglyboo around now, life just seems that more complete. we're learning new things about her everyday and that is like an adventure in itself for us.

i still remember my wedding day, cos i had so much fun. it was tiring but i was so happy. family and family friends came during the day reception - which one of my oldest friends came to, stepped into the hall, looked around, and stated plainly, "this is so not you."haha. but since my dad and i agreed to disagree, we agreed to hold the day reception according to his taste and he would pay for that one and i would hold a small (around 50 people) little garden wedding dinner for my closest friends at night which i would pay for (my mom helped a bit, heh).

anyhow, the same friend came to my night wedding dinner, looked around, and went "now, THIS is you." i still remember those memories. and looking at photos still make me smile. our friends were so great in helping us out, the food was great and the weather was awesome. i know lots of people sacrifice their own dreams and ideas in favor to please their own parents, and i must say i was lucky. i simply got the best of both worlds.

anyhow, our first trip, just the three of us, went really well. jigglyboo had no problems with flying at all. she was pretty much a happy baby throughout the whole process, except for the last day, of which we suspected she might have a slight tummy ache. looking forward to building many more memories ahead.

finished my first real giftbox as a present to a girlfriend for her birthday. it turned out very well and i'm so proud of it! still thinking of a perfect name, i have a few suggestions but haven't really settled on it yet.

ps. there was an unpleasant episode of our struggles with our tummies over the last week but i won't dwell on that. let's just say, when your tummy rebels, there's really not much that you can do.
