Life with a baby is exciting but a huge adjustment. We are trying to manage the chores and chaos with ease, patience and humor, it was tough at the beginning but is now getting better and better.

The most important thing is the little one is healthy and happy (he smiles a lot so I take it as a sign of satisfaction, lol). The good news for me is that I’ve lost 6kg so far, which is the half of what I’ve gained. So I am able to wear some pre-preggy skirts already. ;-)

Thank you for visiting and happy weekend!

When I back home, I realized that one of the little orange tassels on one side of the scarf was missing!
It sucks when you lose something that you adore, but it sucks even more when you know that you are not able to buy a substitute. Ahh…. In order to console myself, I went out again and treated myself a cup of caramel macchiato and a huge piece of Frankfurter Kranz. ;-) While I was enjoying the drink and cake, I couldn’t help thinking about the missing tassel. Where and how could I lose it without even noticed?! In the end, it bothers me so badly so that I decided to trace my shopping route back. Coz this is probably my last chance to get it back. If I couldn’t find it, it’s fine. At least I’ve tried thus I have nothing to regret, but what if I had the luck and…?

So I went back to the city and revisited the stores I’ve been to. Just as I am about to give up, there it was! Lying on the ground in a shop where I got some clothes for my baby. Can you imagine how thrilled I was? Well, I know it sounds stupid to be so happy about such a little material thing, but you can understand how I felt, right? ;-)

When I told my hubby about the story later, he joked that our baby is my luck bringer. Since I found the missing part in that baby shop. Well, I hope so too. As my due day is coming closer and closer, all I need is luck! ^_* Thank you for reading such a lengthy post and now please enjoy miss Pointu Tigre Royal in her full glory~~
