brother's love

whenever we are out and yu xi cries in the car. i will ignore her.

 

yu ze: mei mei cry, mei mei neng neng (milk)

me: yu ze, mei mei don't want neng neng

 

yu xi continues to cry. 

 

yu ze: mei mei, tu tu. 

 

i have no choice but to pass yu xi her tutu and she stops. little thing that yu ze do to show his love for mei mei.

flash cards

yu ze caught me by surprise with his recognising skills today. as usual, fil came over to see his grandchildren. suddenly, darling bring out a stack of baby einstein flash cards bought by sil. these flash cards had been sitting on the rack of yu ze's bookshelves for the longest time. once in a while, yu ze will take them out to 'throw'. darling show yu ze the cards and he is able to recognise the animals on it and name them loh. he really caught me by surprise cos i never knew he can do that.

i think darling had put in effort in teaching yu ze all that. every night when he put yu ze to bed, they will either be 'reading' (flipping) story book or naming things. naming things by pointing at it and tell yu ze what they are. sometimes, yu ze will repeat with him. more common ones, yu ze will name them like car, call, truck, etc.

well done my baobei. hopefully, you can recognise more of the other things from other stacks of flash cards soon.

clear liao

i went back for review for my hfmd and finally got clearance from gp liao. i'm certify fit to go back to work tomorrow. yeah!!! after getting my clearance letter, i went home and make appointment to go for my long awaited facial.

thought i can spend the day shopping but no leh. no time for shopping at all. my appointment for facial is at 11am. after my 2 hours of facial, i went to posb to get my replacement atm card, had lunch at mos burger. then to toa payoh to post things and also had my eye check and bought contact lens. that is all i manage to do and had to go home to cook and wait for yu ze to come home.

i need time to go shopping. i want to buy shoes.....

yu xi's jab

yu xi had an appointment at kk yesterday. since i lost my wallet, i'm only left with $10 in my pocket. i search the house and manage to find another $5. so in total, i had $15 to take cab to kk and darling will meet us there so i don't have to worry about paying the consultation fees and jab cost.

yu xi weighs 4.68kg and 57cm tall at 11 weeks. she is at the 50 percentile. we think she is going to be taller then yu ze. yu ze was only 59.5cm tall when he was 4 months old. she had her first 6 in1 and rotavirus. everyone still mistaken her as a 'he' with her hairstyle.

mummy must diligently put hair band for her whenever we go out liao.

suay... me or robber?

i don't know if i should consider today a suay day or not a so suay day. anyway, i brought yu xi along with me to see gp to get clearance for my hfmd. after that, we went to market to buy some food to cook for myself. my pouch was stolen and i didn't know till i want to take out some coins to buy chrysanthemum tea at ztp. i was shocked to find out my pouch (my wallet is inside) is missing cos i hang it on my stroller together with the diaper pouch. the diaper pouch is still there except my pouch. i walked back to market hoping to find it though i know there is no hope. nevertheless, i still make my way back to the market. well, as expected couldn't find it.

then i decide to walk to the neighbourhood police post to make a report before heading home. i got another shock. the neighbourhood police post only operates from 12 noon. i got no choice but to go home first.

usually i will put my home keys is inside the pouch but today i choose to put it inside the diaper pouch. i took out all the cash from my wallet and put in my pocket after breakfast before heading to market, thinking its easier for me to pay money when i make purchases later. hp is all along in my pocket. so maybe i should consider myself lucky since i still have my hp and house keys with me. if not, i won't be able to go home liao. my lost is not very big too since there is no money except some coins inside my wallet.

first thing i do when i reach home is to call ocbc and posb to report on my lost cards. darling told me my ic is actually with him and not inside my wallet. that save me the trouble of having my ic replace and the replacement charges.

so from this incident, who is more suay. me or that robber?

hfmd confirmed

its confirmed. i really got hfmd. i found more spots coming out on my soles and there is 1 ulcer on my tongue. i went to another gp to check. its confirm and was given mc for monday and tuesday. he say i might have already gotten it on tues when i had fever. therefore by tues, i should be able to clear.

there is no need for me to be separated from my babies as they had been expose to hfmd liao. no point separating them from me. since its confirm, i have been feeding yu xi fresh breast milk instead of frozen breast milk. want her to have the antibodies for hfmd. maybe cos she had been taking fresh breast milk since she was admitted, she is safe from hfmd though i have been in close contact with her. will let her continue to have fresh breast milk till i cleared off hfmd.

hfmd?

my fingers had little red spots on them. it does feel painful whenever i close my hand or try to screw the bottle cap. it make me wonder if i'm having hfmd cos my colleague's girl confirm her hfmd on wed.

however, other then those spots there is nothing else to prove that i'm having hfmd. i went to gp to check but he clear me and say its not. give a cream to apply and a day mc to rest at home. he told me to go back if there are more signs of hfmd such as ulcer in my mouth. hmmmm..... are they really hfmd signs?
