First two teeth extraction

Our appointment was 5:15pm but we reached at 5:25pm.
You had a teeth xray to decide which teeth to extract.

Dr. Daniel applied gel first. Then he injected your gums.
We waited for awhile and he injected the 2nd time.
You cried both times but just for awhile.
 Jie jie was there to hold your hands.

Mommy was very anxious, wonder how you will react.

Mommy decided to extract 2 teeth because you may not be brave enough to come again when the next teeth pops out, which is popping out as shown in the xray but not shown on your gum.

Dentist poke your gum with a sharp tool to ensure you are numb. He asked if you feel any pain. You said no. Then he used his tools to extract your teeth.

Upon reaching home, you quickly wrote a letter to tooth fairy. Mommy put the teeth in a sealable mini plastic and labelled it. I also gave you a metal container to place your tooth and letter.

You looked really tired. Mommy fed you with small spoons of food for dinner while you do your homework.

After you have done your homework, we changed and went to bed.

You put the letter and tooth under your pillow.

You have memorised up to times table 4, but still struggling to remember 8x4, 9x4 & 12x4.
You've stopped Heguru and started with Morris Allen. But you're going to stop Morris Allen by July because I think they aren't teaching you much. I plan to check out Collins.

5 years 9 months old - Influenza A

Mummy has been taking mc since Friday until today (Wednesday). Since Friday night you had fever above 38 degree Celsius. On Sunday noon, jie jie's turn to have high fever but your fever seemed to have subsided without much medication since morning. I gave you propolis to bring down the fever and pear juice to cool down your body. However, your fever came back on Sunday night. On Tuesday, we went to Dr. F. Both of you were
tested with swap by poking a stick into your nostril to check if you've got influenza A. The result was positive. Dr subscribed antiviral and she said to take for 5 days, once every 12 hours.

This virus is so strong and below are the tortures you and jie jie experienced.
1) migraine
2) body ache
3) Nausea
4) High fever (38.5 to 40 dc)
5) Running nose and stuffy nose
6) Sneezy - only JK
7) Tiredness and weakness
8) Extreme exhaustion
9) Sore throat - only jie jie
10) Cough - only JK
11) Lots of smelly farts



Both of you have been calling mummy non stop asking for help because of extreme uncomfortable condition, from stomach discomfort to having the urge of vomiting, migraine, cold feet(JK).
Mummy would massage both you and jie jie's head during migraine attacks and luckily it didn't happen at the same time. Mummy also massaged your legs almost the whole night on certain night. Running back and forth kitchen and living hall, up and down stairs, drained my energy. When you couldn't sleep in the room, I would take you downstairs to try sleeping on the sofa.

Even though I've given paracetamol to both of you, the fever just won't go away, especially you. I couldn't give you another dose until 6 hours gap is up. So I had to just keep you away from the fan and air condition and close the window to prevent mid night cold wind.

Mummy is worried sick so I dare not go to work and stayed home to care for both of you. Daddy advised to get kakak and granny to care for both of you during the mid night and day time but I think I would understand both your needs better. I prayed to Kwan Yin for speedy recovery for both of you.

It has been a while since both of you last fell sick. Mummy has been taking propolis -5 drops, in hope to stay save from this virus.Daddy has been busy at work and only reaches home around 12am every night ever since he joined his new company.

Learn to cycle on 2 wheels at 5 years 3 months old

Mummy wanted to post this earlier but didn't have time. It is something mummy wish to remember. Daddy took you to condo to learn to cycle with 2 wheels. It was your first attempt & we didn't expect you managed to balance yourself on the 2 wheels bicycle within 20 minutes! We think you're extremely amazing.

The night before, you said you only want to learn cycle with 2 wheels when you're as big as jie jie. I said you always say you can't but you haven't try. Just like playing the piano, you can't play with both hands last time but now you can and you're very good at it. I think you're worry you might fall and get cuts and bleed. I assure you that daddy will hold you tight to prevent you from falling.

We have been doing SAM worksheets from around 8:45pm to 9:30pm recently with jie jie.
When we're on the bed, sometimes we do counting by 2, by 5 and by 10. Just last 2 days I gave you some problem solving questions when we're on the bed. You loved it. The questions I asked were very simple. For example, if we have 6 kittens in the kitchen, next day we saw only 2 kittens. How many kittens are missing? You got it right most of the time.

When we do SAM worksheets, we get teacher Ant to mark your work and teach you sometimes. Teacher Ant is mummy's pointer and middle fingers. Haha!! When teacher Ant sees your beautiful writing, he will draw a star beside your answer. You love seeing teacher Ant tumble over from the table to the floor. That happens when he got a shock to see your beautiful writing.

You can float for 20 seconds by yourself by pushing the water down with your hands and kicking the water. When we were lying on the bed, you asked if I kept the books I took out for you just now. I said I did. I'm so amazed with your tidiness.

22 Aug 2015

We visited MC ah yi at K9 and you swam by yourself because I didn't bring my swim suit. You put the board on the deck and pushed yourself to the middle of the pool and swam about independently. Finally... I'm happy to see you enjoy floating about independently in the water.

26 Aug 2015

We were  sharing the flower blanket on the bed. After awhile, you gave me the whole blanket. You covered me up nicely and said "I give all to you because you are not well". I was having stomach ache due to mensus.

27 Aug 2015

I suddenly remember in July when we went to Hello Kitty Land, you didn't want to go into Angelina Ballerina's studio initially. Only after awhile, I discovered that you thought that was for girls and you're too embarrassed to be seen interested with Angelina Ballerina activities which includes putting on a ballet costume and dancing.

21 Sept 2015

You came upstairs and suddenly went down again. I heard you asking 2 cups from kakak. You are so observant to notice there were no cups on the small table.

4 Oct 2015

The other day you told me how to love you. You said just say nicely to you and you will listen. So every time you disobey, I will remind you of what you have said and you will immediately obey. Hahaha!!

10 Nov 2015

You did rock climbing all by yourself for the first time.

5 Dec 2015

You went to Heguru class by yourself. You were so steady & just joined in the class with the others without hassle or rejection. You waved at me when you saw my camera from the little hole at the door. I'm so proud of you. Today, I'm is signing SAM franchise agreement and I'm feeling anxious. I hope everything goes well.

18 Jan 2016

You slept by yourself last night after I brushed your teeth. More independent now.

10 Feb 2016

In Taiwan for CNY, you showed me in the bath tub at yi gong's hse that you can dunk your whole head into the water. It's another milestone for you.

9 Mar 2016

I was feeling down for the past few weeks. You asked me what happened. I said I can't. You felt so hopeless. Then on, you always ask me if I have a bad day and if I don't, your said I can just open up my hand phone to see your videos. You think if I watch your videos I'd be happy.
