Venice n Mummy go church

It has been very long since I step into church. Over the years ,Lots of friends inviting me to their church, I will have thousands of excuses why I cant attend. Even when I promise to go, the day before will always have attack that hinder me to go on Sunday. Lazy and overslept.

.

Is time I make effort to go back to God for his support. Going Church on Sun was a dilemma , actually intend to start Venice on Phonic class on Sunday 9.3oam, the service clashes with her class. V prefer to go phonic class but I make a decision to let V attend sunday school. Saturday V promise to go and looking forward to attend Sunday class herself. But at night she change her mind, want me to go with her.

.

Sunday Morning, she refuse to go church. Lucky her god dad n mum came so we manage to persuade her to church. She refuse to stay in the class alone. So I have to miss the service and be with her in class. She is afraid that I will run away half way, so she cling to me very tight.

.

After the class , when I ask her, she say she like church, want come again next Sunday. But mummy have to be with me. At least a good start that we both can go church together hand in hand and pray that one day neece can be independent in sunbeam.

.

Later in the afternoon, I ask V why you can be at CC alone but Sunday class you are scare?

.

V reply : CC mummy go work, I wait for teacher Lillian, teacher Lilian will take care of me and I enjoy myself at CC with my friends. Here no teacher n no friend and the gor gor bully me, so I want mummy.

.

True ,Sunday School, the class is quite big , 3 teacher to 20 to 3 5 kids. When in class with V, I witness a boy push down the blocks that V build and another girl snatch crayon from her hand.

.

After the conversation, I have doubt whether should I continue to bring her and leave her there alone, if the teacher n kid keep changing, guess it will be tough for her to feel secure. Maybe I should wait for the helper to come, so that the helper can be with the girls while I attend service. I don't wish to scare her off before I switch her from CC to Church Kindy in Jan 09.

Venice best friend is Mummy

Venice was closer to me after attending ChildCare, she will demand more cuddle time and need me by her side and carry her often. When she is in bad mood, she will be very obsessive , refuse to let me handle Vera. I suspect is because of the long hr of independence in CC. So she demand lots or full of my attention when home.

.

After Venice n daddy moving over to Mum house, my freedom is totally gone. By time reach home is 7.30pm, Therafter bath & feed her, after dinner ,play toy together. 9.00pm prepare to sleep, brush teeth, put on pamper for her , reading time & last milk. By the time she sleep is around 10.30 to 11pm, I am too exhaused and felt into dreamland too.

,

Well but guess all this effort do pay off, when I ask Venice who she love most during our pillow talk session, her reply was MUMMY without any doubt.

,

V reply : Me & mummy are Partner, good friend & buddy, everyday mummy n neece take Mrt together, mummy go work, Ah neece go childcare, then mummy fetch me, we take train home together. Mummy pom pom me, feed me play with me & make me sleep. We are Partner. I Love mummy.

.

I feel so touch over the conversation and feel so bad that I keep complainting that I have no time for myself. Guess that is motherhood.

Zoo Trip & Music for the Intelligent Mind Performance

No EnDing ......Vera suffering from thoart infection

Vera started drooling on friday, we are so happy when we found that another pair of teeth erupting.. total make up 6 fairy tooth. Her drooling was terrible we need to change her very frequently and her milk intake reduce.

Saturday started to choke and cough when she sleep, no interest in food & her milk intake reduce. Is very tough to get her to drink milk. She was very cranky need us to carry her whole day. She don't seem to swallow her saliva. We though is teething pain. At night, she cannot sleep, keep turning & tossing.

Sunday was terrible, her condition turn worst, No even a drop of water can go into her mouth, she was crying whole day, keep grinding & rubbing her face, eye swollen, cant swallow her sailvia. We need to take turn to carry her and she cant sleep. During evening decided to bring her out for a car ride hopefully she can doze off. She was very tired but whenever she doze off , she will cough & cry in pain that wake her up. We brought teething gel to help her, but is not effective.

.

Dehydrate was our only fear , try all matter to force her to drink water.

.

9pm, she was crying and coughing. Very breathless. We cant wake till morning for PD, have to rush her to A&E again. We fear that is another bronchitis attack.

.

We are relieve when the nurse at A&E told us that her breathing was alright. After waiting for 45min , we manage to see the doctor. After examine her, she was diagnose with thoart infection. She was not dehydrate cause she was still tearing & drooling.

.

There is no medication that can help her, she will recover in 3 to 5 days time. We can feed her fever medicine to reduce her pain. Doctor advice us to feed her cold drink , milk or food to relieve her pain and keep her hydrate. Take noted that the virus might travel down her lung and cause bronchitis attack again in the next few days.

Every kids dresses up in their traditional wear on Hari Raya & costume on Children day and yet my girl is the only one that wear her uniform to school. I feel so sorry for her.

.

But the teacher was very nice, she keep telling me sorry, is her fault cause she forgot to remind me. And I am really touch that they found costume to doll up my girl. Teacher Lilian told me that Hari Raya Venice was dress in Korean outfit and Children Day she wore a Mongolian outfit.

Nightmare not over yet.

More medication -sinupret to clear phlegm ,Ventolin to open airway, Zyrtec for flu, Paracetamol for fever, antibiotic, singular for lung . Poor baby need to take 8 type of medication. Doctor reprimand us for not feeding her Tamiflu and we have to start her.

.

Feeding her medicine became a nightmare, cause she simply refuse and will vomit out even after we force her to swallow.

.

Saturday - Vera started vomiting , after 7 - 8 times round within 3hr , we brought her back to Kidlink. She was put on neublizer and increase her dosage of Ventolin. She was very brave consider 1st time using neublizer, did not straggler much. After using she was so much better. Vomit stop and she can nap well.

.

Tuesday - Brought her back for review. So glad that doctor after hearing her lung declare that she was clear & healthy.

Wedding dinner @ Furama Hotel

Today is daddy cousin Jing Quan wedding day at Furama Hotel. So qiao he is also my colleague at TTSH. Brought 2 set of dresses for the girls but Vera was sick, so we have to keep her at home.

Venice was very well behave throughout the wedding dinner and I was surprise that she eat every course serves. She is a selective eater and love good food like mummy.

A short visit to Goat Farm

The girl prepare to go out, Vera recently learn to drive the fisherprice car, she is a backward driver, but is trying very hard to pick up the skill.

Cope ing at home the whole day, decided to bring the kids for a walk nearby, decided to visit goat farm. Was disappointed that they closed the barn and we are not allow to go near the goat for feeding. We left after 15min.

STAY at HOME Sister

What to do when both are sick n have to stay at home? Suddenly feel so good to have a sister to play with....appreciate one another...hmmm play cooking together, fight together & create havoc. Venice keep repeating I LOVE MEI MEI. Vera will SMILE when Venice is around.
.
Staying at home on weekend is never in our family dictionary. Weekend is suppose to go out for fun & food. But this super long weekend ....we are stuck at home with bottles of yucky medication!!!!

What a crazy Holiday ..V1 stomach flu, V2 Tamiflu???

Friday Night :-

3 sick bugz staying under one roof .... is a helpless night cause Vera fever was high , she keep coughing cannot sleep well, we are very exhausted.

.

Saturday Venice Stomach Flu:-

Vera 3rd day of Fever, it seem to be going up, hit 39degree in less then 4hr since the last intake of paracetamol.

.

Nightmare came when Venice started to Vomit at night & complaint that her tummy pain. She vomited 6 times within 1 hr and we have to rush to 24hr clinic. She was diagnose with stomach flu. She finally settled down after the insertion of table into her anus.

.

We finally settled to bed at 2am. Vera was coughing non stop crying for ah ma.

Sunday Vera Nose bleeding:-

.

While me & fai is out to run some errand, got a call from mum that Vera Nose bleed. We rush back to send her to A&E. Her nose was still dripping with blood stain when reach KKH A&E. The nurse assure us that is alright, most likely the blood vessel break , however they will do a blood count to see if she has virus infection since day 4 fever still very high & hopefully the bleeding is not due to low blood count.

.

Blood test result is out she is not virus infection. Doctor cant give her antibiotic, but because her fever was high 39degree at day 4 and coughing badly. She was prescribe various medication and TAMIFLU. I got a shock Y TAMIFLU???? Is not recommended for kid below 1yrs old and there is a lot of side effect.

.

Doctor assure me that the amount is adjusted to her weight. By day 2 she will be better. Side effect is stomach ache , loose stool & vomiting. I was very redundant but doctor say there is not other medication Vera can take to help her to get better.

.

The TAMIFLU itself cause me $45. Total bill is $145.

Mummy I dont want to eat.....

Home, after some consideration we decide to drop the idea of feeding her TAMIFLU. She is suffering already, the medication suppose to help her and not caused her future discomfort. We decided to monitor her for another day.

.

Pray that I have make the right decision. My block nose was getting worst, another day of rest tomm, hope miracle will happened, we will all recover.

The NevEr EnDinG SiCk BuGz

2009 is not a good year for us. Flu bug seem to be surrounding our family running like a cycle.

.

VeRa, countless no of medicine she have swallow since 3mth old and yet she was always having cold. We suspect that she was sensitive and brought her to see Resp Specialist Dr Chay Ah Mo and she was on Kitotifen for 3mth. Condition started to get better and she was flu free for 6 weeks.

.

Venice started school this year, naturally she fall sick often. Since back from maternity leave ,I was down with cold very frequently, the last attack I have to rush to A&E due to lung infection & on Medical Leave for 7days. I was on Medical Leave , naturally Venice have to miss school, and guess she got the virus from me!!!

.

Venice absent from school Mon to Wed. I took urgent leave on Mon to bring her to clinic & separate her from Vera. When she is back to school on Thurs, got news that 5/8 toddler in another class is down with stomach flu. The principle assured me that is only 1 confirmed case. In my heart I was praying that Venice will be healthy.

.

Vera & Mum started to develop flu & fever on Thursday. I start to have cold again. The Virus spread from me to Venice and now is Vera & Mum to back to me again.

.

How to stop it?????

Vera Concept Photo Taking by Sean Lau

Vera photo shoot by Sean Lau on 29 August 09 (Sat). Mummy sign up the package 3mth ago combining with other November mummies & friend to get a better deal.

.

The session almost need to cancel because mummy & Vera is surrounded by flu bugz again. I decide to go ahead cause to re-schedule we have to wait for another 2 mth, by then Vera is too old for concept photo.

.

Morning I quickly pop panadol, when the fever subside I walk out to have my hair cut & blow. Reach home packed and iron their loots. Make Vera sleep. Unfortunately Venice miss her nap and she is cranky. I bring 2 big bags of loots, 15 set for Vera, 7 set of sister loots, 3 set for family.

When we reach, we was greet by Sean & Adelena , they are very friendly couple. I lay out all my clothing on the table for Sean to select which for Vera to wear. He will match the clothing , hair accessories with his set up.

.

Vera was very excited sitting in front of all the studio lighting, she begin to scream & clap her hand for Sean to take picture. I was so relief at this moment, at 1st was afraid that she will be cranky cause her mucus keep dripping non stop.

This little garden pot set up was so cute. I love this setting when I browse his website. Vera have to cross her leg & sit in. But my little darling was so scared that she keep crying and insist to crawl out of the pot. Not much picture was taken.Naked xiu xiu, Suddenly I feel she look so much like a boy, guess is was too cold to go naked & she was unwell. She was crying for help while we try to make her in crawling position. We give up taking.After dressing Vera up, she was a happy baby again, she must have feel very safe sitting on the chair. Happily smiling when we act as a clown behind Sean.Seeing her so happy, Sean decided to try another basket series of set up with lots of teddy bear. Confirmed Vera is not a doll person. The moment she is in, she was upset again, looking at us hinting for help.Where is Venice all this while? At 1st she was very happy, helping us to make vera laugh, but after a few series without her, she start to feel in balance, started to be very cranky. distracting Vera, blocking the camera and prevent us from giving all the attention to Vera.So I request that is time for both girl to take some picture. After changing Venice was not very co-operative. At 1st was a nice long bench for the gal to sit together, She refuse to sit, Sean change to single chair . She refuse to smile and make all sort of funny faces. In the end, we give up on Sister shoot. Surprisingly still have better picture capture.Vera look tense on the chair by herself. Unable to make her smile. Guess is time for another set up.

Phew finally there is a pail that can make her happy, Manage to catch her smiling happily inside.


Got a big surprise when Vera take this series of picture. Put her into the tutu, force a necklace onto her neck.
.

Sean ask us if she can stand with support, hmm well we can try, n surprisingly , this is the 1st time we saw Vera standing up holding a pole. She was dancing happily shaking her butt & balancing herself, while mummy standing beside trying to catch her if she fall.
.

2nd surprise, she can pose on 4. YES is pose = position and not crawl on 4. Is an advancement for us cause she is always on commando position. Never so sexy.



Vera you are suppose to look sexy babe. but you look like a boy in tutu soaking with your saliva ..hmm..must be her hair that make you look like ah boy.Basket = Scared = = dont want = Not happy = Crying baby. Manage to capture few picture & you are unhappy again. You was crying badly and we have to take 5 , to feed you milk.
After milk you have calm down for a while, while all kids love pool ball. You was crying for help inside the pool. We give up and guess is time to call jie jie back for family shoot.
.
Where is jie jie? she has been very distracting, and was being request to bring her out. So she go playground with Yeye.

Venice was very wet when she is back. We clean her up and change her into our family suit for family portrait & sister shoots. Venice was up to her funny face again. In the end we think of a way, sing happy birthday song. It look more natural while sing so that Sean can capture some picture.

.

This is the only position that Sean can take the sister, cause while trying to ask Venice to be closer to Vera, instead of hugging her ,she push her down and Vera cry again.

I requested for them to wear tutu that I have prepared and take some shots. Quite upset that no single shot for Venice in this tutu set. She look so lovely like angel in this dress.Just when I thought is the end day, a big teddy bear appeared to put an closure to the day. Overall is a good experience, Sean & Adelena was very friendly , pocket burnt a big hole, a busy yet a fun session, a bit up sad cause some detail was not taken care. Maybe I cant expect much as it suppose to be a concept photographing for Vera.

.

Vera, very very tired being the centre attention, why I need to keep changing clothes, Why I need to sit in those pail , basket & pot and facing all the furly scary stuff. The adult is so excited but I am so scared.

.

Venice was upset cause she we did not give her attention, she was screaming & crying making a scene when we are about to left, in the end we have to drag her out of her house naked.

.

Mummy feel abit of regret that I didn't take studio picture for Venice when she was younger. Venice was such a smiley & photogenic darling when she was a baby.

.

I was shivering after the photo shoot, Fever is back again, after dropping the girls home, I went A&E for consultation.

.

Is not easy to handle you at this age, a lot of patient is needed to explain to you why you must do this n not that. Mummy do loss temper & scream at you. We will alway make up during bed time, to recap why this behaviour is not right.
