Homeward Bound



















Waah! Can't wait to go home!

I've settled the major things I needed to settle before leaving Bahrain for good. Tomorrow evening I bid farewell to my host country for the last two and a half years to go home to this boy, his brother and their Mama. It's been an eventful last few months for the family. Now to settle down again and start new routines in our life.

Never thought routine is something I am actually looking forward to...

Hello World!

Thanks to my sister, I finally get to see my son for the first time. Few more days and I get to hold him in my hands. Whoohoo! Can't wait.

Aaron Arrives

Today the Zizster gave birth to our second son. Glad everything went well and both Mama and baby are fine. Too bad I couldn't be there since I'm serving my last few days here in Bahrain and needed to sort out our exit from the country as a Resident.

I have yet to see a picture of our new son Aaron but I did manage to hear him squeak while the Zizster was holding him when we spoke. Can't wait to be back in KL later in the week. Josh was excited when he turned up at the hospital. He asked me, "Papa, can I boss Aaron around since I am the big brother?". "Err.. I guess".

This pregnancy for the Zizster has been very eventful. Evacuating a country while 30 weeks pregnant, not having hubby around for the crucial weeks, gynae getting a heart attack just before the birth (surprisingly he still managed to deliver the baby)... Fittingly, Aaron was born on Friday the 13th.

Our adventure as a family continues with the latest addition. Welcome to the world, my son!
