Katelyn as a lady bug

My wife gave birth to our first child and that day made me the happiest man on Earth. It was really a journey for me and my wife. Since the start of pregnancy to the time that she delivered our baby girl. She is a warrior. I think every mom is a warrior. I really did not imagine how brave a woman is until I saw my wife giving birth.

On the morning of the 24th of November, my wife already knew she will be giving birth that day. I was with her the whole time, feeling brave on the outside but really nervous on the inside. I inhaled and told to myself, "this is it. oh my god. this is really happening". 

I am proud of you. Those are the first words I told to my wife after 3 hours of excruciating pain of delivery. I can't explain the joy in my heart when it skipped a beat the moment they pulled our child out of her and held it up high. Our child did not cry. She was just looking at her mother and to everyone, maybe wondering, "where the hell am i?". From that day I knew, Oh boy, this girl will be brave.

4 months later, this is her. Our very adorable cutie little pumpkin. Say hello to my daughter, Katelyn Isabelle.

I was never this proud before. I was never this proud in my entire life. But this is just a start. a beginning. And I am enjoying every bits and pieces of it.

Have you experience slothing out, watching tv all day then suddenly you end up watching food/travel shows? That's that you get if you want to travel and explore but you don't have time and money to do so. So I just watching this travel show when a beautiful host went to Malaysia looking for good food. They end up at this cafe named Le Bread Days where they showcase their famous salted egg croissants. Wow - the cafe look very chic and cool, the host is pretty, the food looks amazing and delicious and this cafe is located at Kuala Lumpur! From that day onwards, I never forgot Le Bread, told to myself: I do not know you, but I will find you and I will eat you!

So I made it! Voila - I am here at Le Bread!

The Gang at Le Bread Days

 To my surprise, the people behind the counter and in the kitchen are Filipinos! I never imagined that in this suburb area of Kuala Lumpur, there are still Filipinos.

The famous salted egg croissant!

Verdict? It's amazing! Everything they said in the show is true. The tenderness, the texture, the taste - oh god. This is heaven. It is more delicious when consumed hot.

Since I will still be driving all the way north, I partnered my croissant with cappuccino!

The trip is not complete without take away!

The ambiance is cool. Like every cafe with a chic looking style, antiques stuff and jazz music. Very nice place to relax.
Though I noticed that the drinks are priced way above average for me, maybe this is the typical price for KL but not in Ipoh.

I will definitely go back and try their other pastries!

Verdict:
