So the 'glutton monster' has gone back to its cave. Now that I am in my 2nd trimester, my morning sickness has almost (but not fully) recovered. I do not have to eat ramen everyday for breakfast anymore and I am starting to eat whole wheat toast with melted cheese for breakfast and nasi with kicap and sambal tumis with anchovies and fried peanuts….yummy! The more basic the better! Good thing, I am still not craving for anything sweet like cookies or ice cream (the taste of sweet makes me yak!). But I do love them fruits…the more sour the bettah!

Let's see whats in my 'care package' ('tah pao' Harrod's bag) today :
2 tiny red apples
1 low fat yogurt
1 slice of Texas cookie (just in case)
Oh and don’t forget Tums for that gasey feeling!

My energy is starting to come back too. I am a happier person now (with occasional hormone bursts at times…shuddup husband!) and have more energy to last till 10 pm.

I can already feel the baby moving (as per my 2 previous entries). The baby loves food! So 30 minutes after every meal, it starts to do acrobats. It also wakes up when I wake up! Such a wonderful feeling.

Today will be the Dr's appointment. We will hear the heartbeat and if we're lucky, another ultrasound! The kids are anxious to know the sex of the baby which is still too early, but we'll never know!

I told the co workers that I am starting to take wagers for the sex of the baby hehehehe.

In the meantime…
The City Hall of San Francisco (which has our cute mayor working there) has been closed since 7:30am today due to 3 suspicious packages (a bomb threat). Our office is only 1.5 blocks away from City Hall. Our Disaster Response Team (I am one of the member) says that this will not effect our daily operation…dang…wish we could all evacuate and go picnic in the sun! Anyway, I am sure the scare is just a scare…especially since 9/11, anything is a scare!

Have a great week ahead people!
