Joe and his family arrived today from Japan. Â Mum and dad came together to pick them up from the airport and they were absolutely thrilled to see Brendan. Â I am sure they cannot wait to see Abigail too.
It has been two years since Joe came back so it is always good to have him around. Â Looking forward to spend some time catching up!
Abigail Chang, you are absolutely adorable. Welcome to the family. 2010/7/31 at 5:10am, 3550g and 51cm.
Abigail, please promise us to be a good girl. Promise to be good to your mum.
Times like this, it does make you worry and wonder why isn’t she coming out?
Please come out soon. Â We all want to see you very much.

I am so happy mum is back.
What I am not so happy is my weight.
My weight was steady and dropping at 67.5kg the day when mum arrived.
The next day it went up to 69.
I need to control my craving from mum’s home cooked meals.
I am not sure if it is the age of this apartment or is it the people upstairs have absolute no respect for others. Since Chinese New Year, I noticed the noise coming up the flat above us is growing louder and louder. It could be people playing Mah-jong, walking, dragging furniture, whatever they are doing, it is loud.
We told them a few times and they said they were not aware of this. To me they just don’t seem to care at all. After telling them off, the noise comes right back again.
Friends told me I might be too sensitive because noise does travel from floor to floor. Plus it is an old apartment so noise can also come from old water pipe or just the building/concrete itself.
Anyway, I am close to the boiling point. I never though about getting a new house this soon, but if this does not improve, I might just find a place and move out.
Thank you mum and dad over the last three months. It was great to have you guys around.
爸媽, 有機會多回來å§! 我們都很希望妳們多待久一點!
Mum hasn’t changes a bit, but dad is visibly older.
Still, it is great to see both of them again.
Mum and dad went back to Melbourne this afternoon. It was kind of weird coming home today but did not see them around. Maybe I am used to the noise they make, used to listening to them arguing over nothing. Perhaps, I am just used to have them staying with us.
Suddenly, I miss them both. I wish they can come back again soon.
The funny thing is, in merely a week time, I will be flying back to see them too! This time back to Melbourne is going to be fantastic, and I am sure my wife will love it too! I cannot wait!
