~ big baby stroller + gifts ~

18 March 2007

my cousin, Noushka, arrived in Singapore this afternoon and she brought tons of stuff for our unborn little girl. the biggest thing is this:

isn’t it cool? it’s a baby stroller that my mom used to use to carry me around… so, it’s probably around 32 years old. after i grew up, it’s been used by most of my cousins when they’re still babies. it’s amazing that it’s still intact and functional! my mom and my aunts (who used it for their children after i and my brother grew up) took a very good care of it, don’t you think?

since it’s old, it has this vintage look that we like. and it’s probably not as mobile as some of those new ones. we’re planning to use it just for around the area where we live, because it’s probably not compact enough for us to move it in and out of a taxi’s trunk.

the other things that Noush brought for us are:

the bear-shaped bib, the thermometer and the booties. they’re so cute! especially the bib :)

those stuffed animals are from my aunt, Chili. she makes tons and tons of handmade stuffed toys and plush, so these are two of them. cool, eh?

soon, we need to buy a cabinet or drawer to store the baby stuff.

hehe, kemungkinan besar sih bakalan turun ke elo juga :) emang vintage, tapi gede banget, jadi mungkin ga terlalu mobile.

Thal. Apa kabar bu…pertama dan terakhir ketemu waktu di Massive Territory. Anyway what a nice-vintage one…i saw some around here in Melbourne, but none of them look as good as yours - talk about perfect shape. My wife is also expecting, she’s in week 21 i suppose (exactly 5 months today). Drop few words in our blogs will ya…? take care. say hi to the hubby
