Got tooth, finally...

10 months 4 weeks old

Discovered Zheng's first tooth 2 days ago... now it's hurt when he bites mummy!

Only left incisor was out... he's quite noisy these few days due to teething and will be very happy to see biscuit. Guess he wants to bite more on food now...

Never Give Up!

Baby's Steps

10 months 2 weeks and 2 days old

Zheng is walking 5-6 steps today! Saw him started to walk on his own a few times today. He will fall back and sit when he realized he's unstable in standing... What a joyful moment to discover his new milestone...

Good appetite!

Today's dinner... Zheng ate half bowl of rice with cooked sauce after his usual 1 bowl of porridge!!!

He's crawling and climbing more and more in Po Po's house, and not forgetting screaming his lungs out when we placed him in the baby cot when things got busy around the house. Another reason is he refuse to sit in high chair for his meal and we ended up tie him on the high chair which he dislike the most... Therefore, he didn't able to finish the usual portion of the food.

Glad to know that he's ready to eat rice even though he still has NO TEETH!

Busy as a BEE!!!

So busy and tired to handle 2 kids... Especially Zheng who can't even be quiet for a minute! He either climbs up the stairs, inspects everything within his reach with his mouth and screams whenever he's awake from his nap or being put inside the baby cot.

En En on the other hands, always asked for "Mummy I want to bath!" when mummy was busy cleaning Di Di's butt! Oh yeah... we are now in mummy's hometown - Alor Star since 18 Aug, maybe 1 and half weeks ago... No helpers around, so only mummy and Po Po to do all the household chores.

Better plan out and execute whatever activities that mummy wants both of them to involve together during the stay here...

By the way, En En stick to mummy more over here... Mummy is happy that she automatically looked for mummy, helped mummy to look after Di Di when mummy needs to go to the loo, and screams for mummy when Di Di is climbing up the stairs coz Di Di doesn't know how to come down yet. She's enjoying playing and chasing with Di Di and the house is full of their laughter!!!

Di Di is not feeling well...

The root cause is he's eating too many "things", those are called food and those are NOT food! At the end, he's having fungus around the insides (left & right) of his mouth... not forgetting the tummy wind as well...

Brought him to the paed on Sunday during this "peak" (H1N1 flu) period and was given Kaolin for the tummy wind and Tytantin for curing the fungus.

Today is the third day taking all the medication. It was like fighting to catch a fish when mummy needs to feed him the medic. So pity that he has to go through this and this is the SECOND time DiDi is taking oral medication. The FIRST time was paracetamol for the 3 months old jab.

He has no appetite to food these few days! So haertache to see our "Little Dustbin" rejecting food... but he still keeps on inspecting other stuff in the house with his MOUTH! Arrgh...

So, it's not always a good news if the little one loves to PUT EVERYTHING INTO THE MOUTH!

Bath time

The signature mouth...

The signature eyes...

So, you know who is who?

Let me out!

Didi: " Hey... let me out from here... I wanna join Jie Jie outside..."

Jie Jie: " Hi, DiDi... huh? What? You wanna come out?"

Jie Jie: " No Way! Your napkin dropped already, bird bird will fly away if you come out!"
Di Di checking on his dropped lampin...

DiDi: " Finally... a breeze... oh... my butt too!"

Who you love most?

En En replied as:-

" No.1 is Ah Mah...

No.2 is Mummy...

No.3 is Didi...

No.4 is Papa...

No.5 is Pe Pe (uncle Eric, who always offer her Pringles)...

No.6 is kakak (who plays and take care of her when Ah Mah or mummy is busy) ...

No.7 is Ah Kong (belakang) "

Kids nowadays are able to identify and choose their preferences. Worry, worry,...

Like sister, like brother...

The little one loves to watch PHDC's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Didi also will concentrate watching the show if he wakes up early in the morning.

One word to describe both of them - CUTE!

Pop on Zyrtec

Just to record down En En took Zyrtec today. The fingers were red in patches and was unable to subside on its own after 1 hours... infact it was getting worse. Redness started to shown on toes and legs quite fast though.

After half and hour she took Zyrtec, no more redness on her limbs. Phew...

Little Energizer who munch alot

9 months 1 weeks and 5 days old Boy




Of course he is the one!!! Move non-stop, eat non-stop (eating things that are call food and thing that aren't food)... but still hardly notice any fat form him as he burns fat faster than mummy... :P Climb up staircase at least 3x per day BUT he is unable to come down.

Eating bread while watching TV...

Eat porridge while playing at the chilren playground @ Gurney Plaza...

He thinks pacifiers and milk bottles are toys... he never suck them on longer than a minute...

Eating toys... and that was Jie Jie's toy...

"See my tummy rumbly?"

Weighed him yesterday at the visit to Klinik Kesihatan and he is 8.8kg, 72cm tall. Still no teeth but loves to eat biscuit!

Lunch at home

A twist from cooking rice everyday, PIL decided to change abit for lunch one day. Taste good with the fresh ingredient added and almost identical to real Har Mee (in Penang it's called Hokkien Mee).

She's improving...

The red patches started from the end of limbs such as toes, fingers

About her allergy rashes... it's getting better... slowly... She is not on Zyrtec everyday but only take it orally if the red rashed/spots/patches suddenly appear fast and can't even go away after some times.

After the course of the chinese medicine from Eu Yan Shang, she indeed had "big" bowel movement for 4 days. During this 4 days, no Zyrtec was given and no sign of allergy reaction came out. Quite amazingly but she had to take Zyrtec on the last day she's took the chinese medicine. Somehow, we are still unsure what was going wrong in her body.

So till today... the longest interval that she's not taking Zyrtec was 6 days apart. Quite a good improvement as compare to previously whereby she needs to take it every night.

She stopped Zyrtec on 13 July when she started the chinese medicine, took Zyrtec again on:
- 16 July
- In between another 2 times
- 22 July
- 28 July

We still need to monitor her from now on and hopefully she won't be needing anti-allergy medication eventually.

3 years and 2 months old

So lady-like....

Trying to be active...

Camera-shy lately... (thus we have to snap her without her knowledge)

Hoping that she can recover faster and get rid off any medication she's having now...

*Pray harder*

The first craft

Playing with paper punches and stamping! No choice, mummy got to bring out all the tools and papers for scrapbooking to introduce En En some paper craft or maybe scrapbooking in future... Oh well, she loves it!

The flowers in white and black ink stamped by En En, mummy embellished them later with the details. Nice or not? Will blog about where this to be used in next post.

A little note about kids

- She is officially sleep with Ah Mah at night and she sleeps soundly instead of waking up at midnight to grab her pillows and walked to Ah MAh's room in dark... and that was when she's sleeping with mummy and daddy...

- She is not allergy to anything according to her allergy blood test result BUT the red spots/rashes/patches never go away ever since she's been discharged from hospital. She's on anti-allergy medicine, Zyrtec for 1 month plus. We tried to stop Zyrtec for a day and the next day the symptom appeared and she started to scratch. Paed advise to let her have Zyrtec for 2 months at least...

- All of us agreed that she's allergy to Arieus, another anti-allergy medicine which the paed gave her at the earliest. We brought her to see a Chinese sinseh at Eu Yan Shang. She's on chinese medicine start today. Hopefully this alternative way works on her as we don't like to see little girl on long-term medication.

- She is boring with life at home sometimes, she wishes to go outing as long aspossible and she will tell you not to go home if she is not satisfy or ready to get home. Seriously, mummy is diggin out the memory of what I was doing at her age and maybe can start with her to do some simple art and crafts...

- He is restless and always bang his head with or without our knowledge. Mummy knitted a head band for him but he's now able to take it off. Therefore, we got to keep an eyes on him every minutes!

- He's going to be 9 months old soon and he's able to walk with hands supported on table, door or anything solid and firm.

- He's hyperactive, triple more than En En during this age. He won't stop crawling, climbing, snatching newspaper or any other papers, toys, anything within his reach in order to send into his mouth!!!

- He had a taste of durian and mangosteen despite other fruits and he can finish one big slice of papaya, eat more frequent whenever he's not sleeping as he always seem want to eat but not hungry.

- He rejects to poo into the potty and only do it in the diaper. Lately he will just poo abit then continue crawling or playing. He refuses to finish his bowel movement when mummy offer him the potty. Therefore, ended up he poo poo 4-5 times per day all in diaper/napkin... arrgh...

- He was starting to do stunts/acrobatic during breasfeeding when mummy offers him side lying. He won't sleep properly instead he will suck from above, buttock high up like doing the downward facing in yoga! Very naughty boy... oh yeah, milk came out from his nostril today... *slap head*

A Sweet One

Mummy hit Didi's hand when he was trying to reach the lamp besides the bed in order to warn him this is not a toy to play with. En En was standing besides Didi and whenever mummy hit Didi's hand, she said: " Touch... touch... (means sayang back DiDi)..." After that, mummy was surprise why En En suddenly pushed mummy down (I was sitting) and sit on mummy's tummy!

Ah Mah saw this and she said En En is helping Didi to make revenge... Ha!

At least we know she loves him!

Why? Why? Why?

Why En En doesn't want to be close with daddy and mummy?
Why she refuse to play with DiDi?
Why she seems like hate everyone in the fanily except Ah Mah?
Why she suddenly love the TV cartoon shows so much?
Why she has no interest on story anymore?

Mummy wonder whether because I breastfeed baby Zheng and she is fear of losing the special place in mummy's heart and changed to get Ah Mah's attention? How... and what to do?

Favourite Pose

Found these photos while browsing through En En's folder the other day. Love how cute she is with mini skirt!!!

Notice her leg's posing??

Hair Trimmed!

This is a backdated post.

Isn't I look cute with bushy/spiky hair?

Waiting for my turn in the hair salon with Ah Mah while mummy was trimming her hair first...

After screaming and a "fight" on not allowing others to touch my hair, this is my new look:

But still Ah Kong and Ah Mah said it's still long... and both of them cut my hair with each scissors on each hands after 2 weeks and daddy said it's horrible as not so neat except short!!!
