Lovely Childhood

For the past few days, Kayden and Kieron had been sticking together like 2 lovebirds. Plus Kieron missed school for almost a week because of his bad flu and cough, Kayden got used to Kieron shouting, running and playing beside him. His teacher advised him to stay at home till he recovered, to prevent HFMDs virus attack his weak immunity

Now, all 3 of us had recovered! Hurray!! But, it's still dangerous to go shopping nowadays, there's an increase of HFMDs and some lives of infected kids had been taken away.. scary and sad...

There's nothing we can do, only to maintain good personal and environmental hygiene standards. Let's just pray together the kids will be fine...

Smiley Saturday

We whole family were out early this morning to buy some "furniture" back. Went Ikea Alexandra.. Hmmmz.. Not really a nice trip, it's having renovation down there, so had limited stuffs to look at. However, we still managed to buy 1 movable wardrobe at $59, a side table at $19 and 2 wastepaper baskets. hehe..


It's Ikea's anniversary over this weekend, so there's this small group of Ikea Staffs doing hand and face painting for their kids visitors. Kieron went for it, Twice! hehe.. He simply loves it. But when he saw his brother bathed after reachin home, he said, "妈咪，我要洗掉，不用紧的，改次还有，我们再去！"



Kayden's really happy and excited today, he went around smiling and talking. Attracted 2 pretty Ikea handpainting Staffs to play with him, he's so happy kicking and smiling to them. The other staffs who just finished the painting joined in the fun too. haha.. He nows like to hear strange strange sounds made by us. He loves being "scare". haha. He will laugh and talk along.

I Look better ya, not like zombie anymore. hehe..
Going be a busy and tired day today... ... & A super moody day, hot sun but now cloudy with warm breeze. Silly weather..

Spring Cleaning DONE!

Yeah!! I finally finished my spring cleaning, with the help of many people.. Been tidying since last night 10pm-2am, today 8am-5pm.

Thanks to my dad, brothers and Uncle Qiong to help send the bed and toys over this early morning.. (Heard my brothers were being pulled out of bed at 7am+ by my dad to move the things down to the lorry, opps.. Sorry bros!)Especially great thanks to my mum. She came in the afternoon to help me put the things in order in the storeroom while I babysit and tidy the second batch of things delivered this morning. & she even helped me to mop the house after everything is done.. If she didn't help, I believe I will break into 2 pieces. haha..

Wow... It's really really shagged.. My back is aching till I can't stand straight. haha.. & Kayden is a bully man... He keeps want me to accompany him, and he's SOOO alert. Even during milking time, he's enjoying, playing with his "pacifier" and smiling to me when I scold him for being naughty, wasting my time. So "Angry". haha..

My storeroom is 90% packed with toys.. But very tidy though it looks really packed. hahaha.. Everything packed accordingly to their category and labelled nicely.. Whoever going to mess up the storeroom is going to get it from me..

See the differences compared to my earlier post.. hehe..

A "New" guest room.. Pals.. You're always most welcome to stay overnight at my house.

Cartons, plastic bags all gone...

To the Doctor

My Dad drove my sons and I to the our family doctor this morning.. Kieron and I had a hard night sleeping, we'd been coughing whole night.

Doctor said we had bad bad bad flu. Luckily Kieron not having HFMDs which is really in peak now. He will be on MC for 2 days. That's good too.. Even if he goes to school with his current condition, his teacher will send him home. I passed the MC chit to his teacher after seeing doctor. She also said "Aiyo..." Took worksheet from her to let him do at home too.. Don't wanna let him think that "Wa, no school no homework, so good" But, it seems I worried too much. haha.. He insisted in going school, he said he wants to do art and craft. He's really my son. He loves this subject as much as I do. Doctor gave me a check too.. hehe.. MY high blood pressure had gone back to normal! Yeah!! Protein leakage from the kidney will recover when the pressure is under control too, just that it's not immediate issue.. So I still can't really overwork, rest is still crucial.. Believe me.. I'm really trying to rest more le.. hehe.. Pals.. Don't worry too much about me.. I'm doing well. Just a bit shagged..


It's a miserable afternoon for me. After cooking pork mee sua for my sick son and had our medicine. I felt so "High" and "Soft".. The effect of the medicine came in within half an hour. Feel so light headed and weak.. And really sleepy. Kieron managed to take his nap. But I can't, my sweet Kayden's so alert. His dad couldn't cope by himself. So here I am again. haha...

After he went for his nap, at first I thought of going for a nap as well.. But, this time round, Kieron woke up. hahahahha.. Went marketing at Vista Point and carried 6 large plastic bags full of groceries. Tired and shakey arms.. haha..

Almost dozed off a few times while milking Kayden, haha.. Tonight I shall SLEEP EARLY, if situation permits. haha.. Dinner for tonight will be Crab Meat Fried Rice.


Tomorrow gonna be another shagged day for me, need to finish off my 2nd round of spring cleaning before dad drove my another batch of things over on Thursday. hahaha..


Kayden's excited over his elder bro's "Ding Dong Ding Dong" song.

Kayden's new toy - bath scrub. Its clean and soft. Not harmful to baby. hehe..

Kayden's followup with his Surgeon

Brought Kayden and Kieron to KKH's Children Surgery Centre today. It's Kayden's hernia followup.


Kayden's surgeon gave him a check. It's a good news... His stuck intestine at his naval base had reduced to half centimeter. The hole should be able to close up soon. & his risk of operation will be lesser too.. hehe... His next followup on his umbilical hernia be 6mths later. Yeah! Kayden's funny boy.. He's still throwing temper while waiting for his turn, cos he wanna milk. But when the doctor laid him on the examination bed and undressed him, he gave her a Great Wide Smile.. haha.. (Se se de..)

Kieron is kinda cute too.. When he heard the doctor said Kayden is getting better, he said, " 弟弟，你乖乖就不用开刀，可以快点好咯!" He himself is unwell too, gonna excused from school for 2 days. He's on "running tap" now (runny nose). haha..

Today had a fast checkup, just 1hour of waiting and consultation time. Great. If it's normal prematurity checkup, oh my goodness, we can wait for at least 3hours including blood test. Horrible..

Now Kayden is getting better, it's my turn to have good rest. (Hopefully la) haha.. You see my panda eyes and pale face. People thought I have serious illness.. & I have been feeling giddy lately.. Sianx..

Just hope everyone around me be happy and healthy. So much viruses around us now. Flu, cough, HFMDs.

I bullyin Kayden. Dont wanna carry him. hehe..

Sickly Weekends

All 3 of us are sick, same illness, Coughing, Running nose. Sianx.. Boxes of tissues are opened every few hours. haha.. Just exaggerating, not that serious..



Though sick but still can't get rest. Busy spring cleaning on Sunday, parents moved some of things and Kieron's toys over to my own house.
I'm busy tidying, looking through which are those that can be throw away..

Kieron is busy going through the things I dug out.
Kayden is busy babbling and smiling, he's so alert today, he woke up at 8.30am all the while till 3pm then took his first nap of the day. And his nap merely lasted 1hour. hahaha..
Aiyo.... Toooo much to clear.. Today's goods are just partial, there are still more to come in mum's house. hahaha.. Headache headache..

Kayden's future room becoming playroom aka temporary storeroom. hehe..

Kieron teasing Kayden

Saturday afternoon with Ultraman

It's a cloudy day today, with thunder and strong wind but no rain..

Kayden is doing well today, still coughing but much better than past few days. He don't cough that often and that frequent. Great!! He seems better mood today.. Got back his smiles and he wants to stick to his elder brother.


They watched Ultraman VCDs together. Both are "amazed" by Ultraman's power and are totally engrossed.. It's Kayden first time watching the superhero. He seems interested to him. When I tried to put him in the swing chair, he frowned. But when I carried him onto my lap watching the show. His eyes are as if "stuck" to the TV. hehe..




Kieron as usual. He loves his Ultraman shows. He can watch it over 20times without feeling bored. Eeee... hahaha..

Playful Kieron

Kieron is just so active as usual despite his brother being sick (he's not the one sick too, haha). He still likes to jump around, trying to be funny..

Busy with coughy Kayden

Been busy carrying Kayden for the past 3days, been consoling him, talking to him, watching over his breathing pattern. His cough neither turn worse nor get well. But I can see that he's really suffering.. Every morning or every late night, he will have this 2hours of non stop coughing.. And it really goes non stop. He has problem coughing out the phelgm. Whenever the phelgm finally gather at his throat and gonna come out, he will swallow back and start wailing. He will scream and cry at the same time..

By the time he finally vomit the phelgm out, he's totally shagged out with 2 puffy, teary eyes. He will turn his head up looking at me pitifully. All I can do is only pat his chest and carry him tight to let him feel secure.


Hope he can get better soon. He slimmed down after vomitting for 2days.

Kieron and his NEW shoes - BEN 10

Yesterday after Kayden's followup at KKH, went to buy Kieron's new school shoes and track shoes with my parents at Teck Whye. Today before going to school, "lovely" Kieron said he wanna wear new shoes. I said okay, since his old school shoes are rather too big for his feet.

Who noes he wanted to wear his Ben 10 track shoes instead. hahaha.. He simply refused to take off and even argued with his dad over 1 pair of shoes.

They learn new songs and alphabets in school this week. He made progress in understanding English at the same time too. hehe.. Good good.. Good till when I scolded him at home, he's able to say "You not nice" to me when he's unhappy. haha..


Today, I had a severe headache, totally lack of energy. Kayden's cough isn't doing good, so brought him to GP near my mum house. Too bad, the doctor said there's no medicine for babies under 3months old, that's why the doctor only prescribed nose solution for relieve the blockage at KKH. & she said that cos Kayden is premature baby, his actual age is only equivalent to 8weeks old instead of 12weeks old.
I didn't sleep since last night, checking on Kayden's breathing hourly till this morning. Because of prematurity, he has weaker lungs, so doctor from KKH told me to watch out for his breathing. Premature babies tend to become breathless or even worse suffocation because of the phelgm in their nose or throat. He didn't sleep well either, been crying on and off due to the coughing.

I feel sooooooooooo sooooooooo sleepy. No mood to laugh, no mood to talk, no mood to eat. But what to do, only can tolerate!!! Hoping he will get well soon. I wonder when will it be my turn to collapse.. Haiz..

Kayden has fallen ill, for the very first time

Dear Kayden has fallen really sick this time. He had bad cough with phelgm, runny nose due to the phelgm and luckily just mild fever for the moment.


He went for his premature checkup today at KKH. He had speedy growth. hehe.. He now weighs 5kgs, height of 55cm. He's catching up real fast, doctor said it's because of the breastmilk he's having. She told me to continue. That's my plan too, if the supply is ample when he grows bigger, thought of giving him full breastmilk till age of 1.

Just that there are still some minor issues to his health. He has lesser blood in him, that's because he's premature, he don't have reserved blood in him, so he has to continue his iron drops(medication) every morning. & he has lesser white blood cells in him, just like me.. So it means he can't go to crowded places or stay too near to sick people, he will catch virus easier than anyone even if he's on breastmilk. That's the problem of being premature.. Everything will only improve as he grows older.

He's real terror today. He screamed and wailed, instead of baby crying sound when the nurse poked his sole for blood test. He cried for at least 10mins, a lady walked out from the laboratory office just to check why is he crying, she said "He is SO FIERCE!" hahahaha...

2nd wailing of the day, the doctor woke him up from his sweet nap, by pressing onto his groin to check on his hernia problem, he cried so loud till the doctor got afraid and apologised non stop. hahaha..

3rd wailing of the day, I dropped 2 drops of solution into his blocked nose, to let the phelgm come out easier and faster. He cried so badly, he was looking at me pitifully, as if trying to tell me "I feel so miserable". He's seems very sensible, he was crying and babbling at the same time, when I was carrying and consoling him everything is gonna be fine.


Hope he will get better tomorrow... Hope the vomitting he has does help to clear his phelgm, then he won't have itchy throat too.. Kieron has been a good brother too, he will go to Kayden, consoling him, assuring him that he gonna be well soon. Really sweet of him...

2 loving brothers

Some people say elder brother will be jealous of younger brother and bully them. Some say elder will become sensitive and hate the younger one. Some say elder will want to snatch attention from parents and do all sorts of things to be center of attraction.


However, till now, I'm happy with Kieron's behaviour of being an elder brother. Not only he will help me when comes to handling Kayden, he will also volunteer to look after Kayden when I busy with household chores. He will come to Kayden, talking to him, asking him how is he, want to show him his work. He is always willing to share.

As for Kayden, he likes his elder brother too. He's able to sense Kieron's presence. Whenever he hears Kieron talking to me, he will look towards Kieron's direction and starts to babble. When Kieron responds to him, they will start their baby language. haha..

I feel real warmth, consolation and happiness whenever I see them sticking together.
