In sickness and in health....

Lil' Tyann,

Today: 24 June 2008

Exactly one year from the day Daddy and Mummy G got married. Yes, today marks our FIRST year wedding anniversary. It was on 24 June 2007 that Daddy and Mummy G could "legally/officially"have you and people won't say a thing. hahaha! (Now, don't ask me what this means. Not yet. ;D)

Mummy G was looking forward to this day as I was wondering what Daddy G might have up his sleeve to celebrate this significant occasion.

Remember I was telling you about Daddy G's cough and sore throat? Well, it had progressed significantly indeed-to a runny nose, very itchy throat and dry cough.


On 24 June 2008-today, Daddy G was given 2 days MC by the doctor to rest at home...stricken with such an itchy throat that he starts coughing the moment he opens his mouth to speak.

However, we were still adamant that we will have a small celebration tonight with a good dinner at a fine restaurant. In spite of his incessant coughing, Daddy G still booked us for dinner tonight at an interesting restaurant- Novus @ the National Museum. (Isn't he sweet;p)


Who would imagine that on 24 June 2008-Today, Mummy suddenly got very bad diahorrea in the office and was also given MC by the doctor to rest at home...


So this was how we spent our first year wedding anniversary:


2pm- Both of us came back from work on MC, looked at each other and thought we were so pathetic. Daddy G pointed at the vase of roses (which had been there since Saturday) on our TV console and said those were for me for our anniversary. (very romantic indeed!)


Roses that Daddy G bought for Relative's night...now recycled to be my wedding anniversary gift...Bleh....



3pm- Sleeping. Daddy G nursing his bad cough. Mummy G nursing her bad tummy.

7.45pm-Decided we must still make it for the dinner. By hook or by crook.


So we changed and made our way in silence (because Daddy G would start his wretched coughs the moment he starts to talk..and Mummy G was feeling very tired from all the LSing in the day and still feeling queasy..) to Novus @ National Museum (Mummy G told you we would bring you to visit the museum when you are older).

Check this out! An androgynous (and Humongous) remake of Michelangelo's "David"!


It was not easy ordering the food.

Daddy and Mummy G were so tempted by the recommended Degustation menu for the night. However, Mummy G cannot take the heavenly Foie Gras and Carpaccio (as you will LS, hahaha-no raw food while having you!) and Daddy G cannot take any desserts. So we did the Ala Carte. No wine for us too as Mummy G can't make you drunk while the wine will give Daddy G phlegm..

Toast of the night: two cups of hot plain water! (pathetic is THE word..)

Food and service were good (Still think it is the best at Iggy's!). Daddy G and Mummy G tried to make it more "significant" by taking one photo together to commemorate the night.

Left-Daddy G; Right-Mummy G. Obviously. (Think this is a better picture than that stupid article Last Sunday. Stupid photographer..grrrr..)


Overall, a very "memorable" first year wedding anniversary. Certainly (like Aunty Gym Emily said) made me remember our vows "in sickness and in health..." Ha!

Daddy G asked me where his gift was-I actually didn't buy a gift for him on purpose because I told him that his gift is right here with us-Kicking away in Mummy G's tummy.

Yes, You, lil' Tyann-Our First Year Wedding Anniversary gift.
