Baby Center Q&A
If you are expecting, or having a baby, don't forget to subscribe the weekly email from the Baby Center. I really enjoy reading Baby Center's email and comparing Cobcob's week by week's development through the pregnancy and beyond. It is fun to know tips and different techniques from other people, however whatever approach you settle on, make sure it's one you feel comfortable with.Below is an example of Q&A from Baby Center I read today:

IKEA 买 "Chest of Drawers" 记
两周前到 IKEA 买了 "Chest of Drawers"。 在安装组合时发现有一根木头跟其他相对的短了一公分,根本安装不上。后来跑去 IKEA 换了这根木头。组合快要结束的时候,又发现有一片木板的洞与其他的木板不符合,又到了 IKEA 一趟。当时换完木板之后,告诉服务员这是我第二次来换组合了,有点不方便,也顺口问他 "I was wondering what you can do for me?"。服务员想也不想的就这样给了我 $15 的 Gift Card。木板带回家之后又发现之前一面的洞是吻合了,但另一面的洞却不吻合,真气人。第三次在回到 IKEA 换木板时,先谢谢服务员的服务,然后很有礼貌的告诉他我花了两周的时间,而且这次是第三次回来换组合,对我是非常不方便,然后才问他 "I was wondering what you can do for me?"。 那服务员在电脑前敲敲两下,告诉我他可以还我 $50,还问我 "Is that OK?"。当时我又从 Not Happy Customer 变成了 IKEA 的 Happy Customer 了。
下一次如果你有类似的遭遇,可试用 Magic Sentence "What you can do for me?"。 记得要有礼貌哦!

Babies Gathering
上个周末我们产前班同学来一个聚会,同一个时间来了八个小宝宝,热闹得很。我们把宝宝们排成一排,从最大排到最小。Cobcob 在里面是排行老五。
注意与 Cobcob 同年同月同日生的 Kathleen 小宝宝,她比 Cobcob 迟了两个小时出来,而且是同一家医院出生的。更巧的是他们的产房就在我们产房隔壁。Cobcob 出生时九磅,Kathleen 是十一磅。

Cobcob and April
Father's Day 2007 第一个父亲节
崇拜快结束的时候,Doreen问我孩子的老师们会不会也把Cobcob带上来一起庆祝父亲节,我说应该会吧。后来孩子们都没上来,只有主席结束时请父亲们站起来向我们祝贺。有点失望。母亲节有儿童献诗、献花等,父亲节却什么也没有。可能母亲节比父亲节重要吧!
晚上Cobcob与谦谦哥哥,还有妈妈们带爸爸们去East Side Mario吃晚餐,过一个愉快的夜晚。
- 有Unlimited soup or salad and garlic homeloaf.
- dd点了Hell's Kitchen Chicken(隆重推荐)
- kk点了Seafood Linguine. 看菜单

Shopping Tips at Costco
最近在Costco买到超便宜的Nestle Carnation Hot Chocolate,1.8kg才卖$2.99,而且绝对不是平时快过期而减价的产品。其他商店都卖$12左右。一直都不明白为什么Costco卖得那么便宜,但却有注意到价钱标签上有个 * 。昨天在Costco买了一个car seat,才$79块钱,价钱标签上也有个 * 。 平时是卖$147的,而且现在其他商店的价钱都还在$150左右。跑去问Costco员工,他们告诉我这时"Marked down price"。当时觉得自己好傻,还是不懂那是什么意思。后来Doreen在Come From China网站找到了答案。。。

City of Ottawa New Local Calling Area
Starting June 18, 2007, long distance charges will no longer be applied to calls placed from Kanata to Orleans. Sometimes it is not making sense to pay for long distance charges to call friends on the other end of the city. Well, it is a good news for me, although we have to pay a monthly fee of 50 cents for the next 36 months. To read the city news: click here.
