Our family has welcomed 4 new lives into the world! The first was a kitten, a fluffy and chubby orange kitten that Blackie gave birth to all of a sudden (we didn't even know she was pregnant!!). Ok, that actually happened almost a month ago, but it's only recently when the kitten has become old enough to explore the house and its residents (humans and cats alike).

And just last week, a close family friend of ours gave birth to a healthy baby boy, with a head full of thick, black hair topped with handsome sideburns. Soooo adorable!!! Just hope that he won't grow up to be like one of those brats u see in public places, creating trouble and causing disturbance without regard for authority....

And yes, one more. In fact, not one more, but two more bundles of joy joined the family! My cousin gave birth to a pair of twins just last Saturday! Well, the baby girls are actually premature, almost a month short of the minimum 7 months. We visited her on Sunday, and everyone had a happy time thinking of names for the babies while watching a video of the babies which the father took. We actually received pretty bad news last night that the babies were in critical condition, that the doctor may not be able to ensure their survival, which was a big blow to my cousin, but apparently today, things seemed fine... Anyhow, we are all praying for the well-being of the twins.

My cousin created a blog to document her pregnancy, which I must say, was a pretty tough one with lots of complications. Nevertheless, u can tell from her blog that she maintained a positive outlook on this throughout....http://simtwins.blogspot.com/

Well, may all of them, kitten and babies, grow up happy and healthy!
