The Middle of the Journey

"Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown. Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air. But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified." {I Corinthians 9: 24-27}
A lot of people are good at starting things. Endurance to the end they may not be so good at. They get tired and quit to early. The hardest part of any journey is the middle. Are you discouraged? Remember you are not there yet. Keep going. We are not able to see the finish line. If we continue and don't give up the end is so sweet. Just like running a marathon. I'm not a runner so quitting would look quite attractive to me. Hope for the future and faith are our 'cheering section' helping us to keep going. And we have each other challenging us to never give up. The prize at the end of the journey is worth all.

Breastfeeding Struggling

Hari ini abis ke hospital ketemu dokter mau nge cek kulitnya ethan agak kering dan bersisik di jidatnya.. sekalian nimbang..ternyata beratnya dah 6.3kg, panjang 57cm. Ethan minum sekarang dah tambah banyak malahan masih belum cukup..suka ngomel..alhasil aku mesti keluarin lagi hasil perahan sebelumnya dari kulkas buat ethan.. Aduh gimana ni..2 minggu lagi mesti masuk kerja, stok yang tersimpan baru 6 kantung..produksi asi ku udah ga sebanyak sebelumnya, ga tau napa padahal makan masih normal..kaldu ayam, sayuran setiap hari.. kalo dulu sekali perah bisa dapet rata-rata 200cc bahkan kadang kalo pagi bisa 300cc..sekarang rata2 cuman 150cc aja sedangkan ethan minum dah melebihi segitu.. Sedih kalo mikir ntar mesti nambahin sufor...soalnya ethan kalo masih laper ga ada kompromi..langsung ngomel...nyusuin langsung aja sering kurang... yah moga2 bisa survive ni.. Btw ethan tambah lucu aja setiap hari..ocehannya banyak banget..gemes banget..jadis edih juga ni ntar dah masuk kerja, untung juga...

My baby's face..

finally we can have a picture how our baby would be look like... Yesterday me and david going for USG 4D.. Actually the best time to have USD 4D is when the pregnancy is only 6-7 months when the baby still small. our time is a bit too late coz the baby already big, so its a bit difficult to have a good image, but still we're so amazed to see how he got david nose...:) We can see all the body organs all in perfect condition, and the heart beat also perfect.. Can't wait to finally met him soon..... Here's some of the pictures..

days after the wedding day

It's been more than a week since the day i become a wife. After 5 days honeymoon now we're back to the real world. This is what i have imagined before, living a life with someone i love and enjoying every minute of it. I also imagine about tons of laundries, cooking, waking up earlier, cleaning the house and so many more. Finally i live the life that many girls have dreamt of. I really thank God that i have a very wonderful husband, who always help and understand. Today is the first day back to work, its great to meet my co-workers again, i love my job even we're in the middle of struggle after the flood back on feb 07. But life must go on. Our honeymoon was great, even it doesnt look like a perfect honeymoon to others but we really enjoy it. Its a bit tired tough. But we got a good time there, enjoying lots of food, watch movie, go to the peak, shopping, go to the disneyland..and enjoying the fire works at disney..it was so beautiful.. Finally we're stay...
