OUr New Space @ wOrdpRess!

2009-02-20T22:49:00.003+08:00

Hi, I turn 17months old today!

Yeah! We got our new space @ wordpress.com.

For the reason that mummy has been busy with work commitments, hence she decides to work on a 2-in-1 blog from our previous seperate blogs @ blogspot.

Here goes 2-in-1 blog @ wordpress.com...

http://doobomoments.wordpress.com/

Wordpress.com has this feature that allow Mummy to 'block' and lock her secret posts with password. This feature is one of the reason that attracts us to settle our blog @ wordpress.

Hopefully all goes well & of coz, happy blogging!

Yes... Ever since my mummy embarked on her new journey, she has became so busy that I only get to see her late evening every day.

Mummy's tots...
'Upon taking new challenges via my new journey, I reached home late in the evenings. It seems that Baby Jerry has ignoring me when I am back home after work for past evenings. I presume he is not used to my absence @ home for entire day. With this, I ought to devote ALL of my free time to him. Hmm... Will try. Baby, Mummy do miss you lots!'

With this, though memories & beautiful moments captured as usual, I foresee Mummy may not be spending just as much time in updating both of our blogs in near future.

Anyway, should any one of you miss our updates, can catch our updates via Mummy's facebook account.

Oh ya... Happy 2009 to ALL!

Mummy heard from gd feedback about Baby Jumper Gym classes, hence she arranged for a trial class on 20Dec.

Date - 20Dec2008 (Sat)
Time - 1030-1130hrs

HomeTeamNS Bukit Batok Clubhouse
No. 2 Bukit Batok West Avenue 7, #01-10, Singapore 659003.

Upon done with the trial, the response from Mummy is ...
Mummy feels that BJG is simply not as good as she expected.

1500 - Fruits/Bread+Cheese, 1 yougurt
1800 - 220ml Porridge
2100 - 260ml FM

2008-12-03T22:01:00.003+08:00

Done with assessment checkup @ SGH Baby & Child Clinic this noon. As usual, PD will conduct assessment for my growth & development.

Measuring @ 85cm height and weight @ 11.5kg.
*Phew! I am not obese as per PD. Thatz what mummy is worried abt.

Took the last dose of pneumococcal (prevenar) jab & MMR. 2 jabs @ a go, 1 on the thigh and the other on the arm. Yes, I screamed & cried as the jabs plunged into my thigh & arm. Haiz... So painful. *sobsob* But I calmed down the moment I saw the X'mas tree @ the cashier counter. Hehe...
(MMR - Measles, Mumps, Rubella)

Advice from PD...
- ok to go ahead with replacing one of the cereals w/ milk feeds to porridge.
With this, Mummy looks into planning to replace my lunch cereal feeds with porridge.

Next follow-up scheduled 4mths later (@ 18mths old)...

I am so much in love with cars & rides... I always can't help but to scream with excitement when I see these rides. When I do that, Daddy & Mummy can't help but to shake head.

Daddy rented a little buggy ride for me when we were out @ IMM over the weekends.

As attention span is rather limited, I automatically surrendered my buggy ride after an hour's ride. Juz in time for Daddy to return that ride.
Rental fee - $3 per hr.

*Daddy & Mummy have been reminded that there is high possibility that I may demand the little buggy ride again the next time round we are @ IMM. OOpss...

As the hair by the side is tickling my ears & disturbing me again, mummy decides to give me a haircut early this morning. Itz Mummy 1st try-out as my hairdresser.

Wendy Ee-Ee wakey juz in time and she took over the role since she is much experienced as compared to Mummy.

Mummy & Xunwu Kor-Kor are the entertainers as Ee-Ee gets on fast to have my hair cut done soonest.
Oops... I 'overstretch' Mummy's specs and it becomes the rubbish bin's PR (Permanent Resident). Poor thing...

Ee-Ee did a great job! Mummy has requested another haircut planned before Chinese New Year!

GUG tRiaL

2008-11-26T23:11:00.006+08:00

Mummy Cherie organised a GUG (Growing Up Gifted) trial for Oct07 babies. Mummy got a slot for me just-in-time. (Date - 23Nov08, Time - 1400hrs)Daddy & Mummy accompanied me as Daddy took the 1st half lesson of 45mins and Mummy took the latter 45mins.

1st half of the trial is much about songs & plays. Daddy did plenty of 'exercises' as he carried me as we got in rhythm & 'dance' along with the songs.

2nd half of the trial is Arts & Crafts. Luckily, mummy took me thru this session as itz far off way dangerous for me. The activity is to mix Shaving Foam with some red-coloured syrup to get a Pinky mixture with our bare hands. OMG! Yes, Shaving Foam...

I freaked out the moment when the Big apron dived down and hang over via my little shoulders. I disliked the feeling and hence, I retaliated & cried. Mummy was distracted and confused with wonders of why Shaving Foam is used for this activity. Considering the safety & toxicity of this Shaving Foam and the red syrup. I skipped the part on the Hands-on of the scary mixture.

Some of my friends got their clothes stained with that Pinky mixture. One of my friend accidentially tasted some of the mixture, Mummy almost dropped her jaw when she saw that. OMG! Luckily I freaked out as I rejected the wearing of the apron.

As for the cleanliness & hygenie factors, be it for the classroom, teachers, etc., itz juz so disappointing. Can u imagine one of the teacher's blue socks' sole are dark brown in colour? Such a yucky thing. As well, the teachers are not engaging enough whereby there is lack of passion for sharing & caring for young children.

Mummy is sure pissed with these unpleasant encounters met during this trial. Not to say even to consider signing for the classes.

Mummy Cherie,

A BIG thank you for taking time & effort to organise this trial class for us. Mummy & myself sure enjoyed meeting up with all of you! See you & Adri soon!

2008-11-16T22:47:00.003+08:00

Itz not Chicky Pox after all. Yeah!!!

As high fever @ approx. 39 degree celsius hovered for 2days (11Nov & 12Nov), Mummy 'drowned' me with lotsa water & barley water. Yes, addition to small dose (20-30ml) of 'Ling Yang' each day. I lost appetite *as usual* and only fed on plainly milk and veggie porridge.

My Ah-Mah's advice for Babies with fever - Boil and discard the first round of boiled rice porridge water, replace with hot water and boil the rice porridge. Reason being 1st round of boiled rice porridge water is heaty. Hmmm...

Thereafter, I started to have mild rashes on 13Nov and I was suspected to have chicky pox. However, the rashes did not flare up into big blister-like kind (the norm chicky pox rashes). And rashes subsided after 3 days.

Mummy stopped all of my cereal feeds for a week, being on the safe side to avoid heatiness. I was just having rice porridge with veggie and fish/pork for both lunch & dinner. As of today, my cereal feeds have been resumed for lunch.

So I am well again, back to my cheery & jumpy self since last weekend.

WhAt's Up wiTh tHe baLL PiTs?

2008-11-12T12:11:00.012+08:00

My mummy juz received this. How true is this???

'Not sure if this will happen in Singapore... but better to be aware of it
DON'T IGNORE THIS , PLEASE READ!!
This could happen to your child. McDonalds, Ikea, Go Banannas, Discovery Zone... All places with ball pitsin the children's play area.

One of my sons lost his watch, and was very upset. We dug and dug in thoseballs, trying to find his watch. Instead, we found vomit, food, faeces, and other stuff I do not want to discuss. I went to the manager and raised hell. Come to find out, the ball pit is only cleaned out once a month. I have doubts that it is even done that often. My kids will never play in another ball pit. Some of you might not be parents, but you may have nieces, nephews, grandchildren, or friends with children.

Hi. My name is Lauren Archer. On October 2nd, 1999 I took my only son Kevinto McDonald's for his 3rd birthday. After he finished lunch, I allowed him to play in the ball pit. When he started whining later on, I asked him what was wrong, he pointed to the back of his pull-up and simply said 'Mummy, it hurts.' I couldn't find anything wrong with him at that time. I bathed him when we got home, and it was at that point when I found a welt on his left buttock. Upon investigating, it seemed as if there was something like a splinter under the welt. I made an appointment to see the doctor the next day, but soon he started vomiting and shaking, then his eyes rolled back into his head. From there,we went to the emergency room. He died later that night. It turned out that the welt on his Buttock was the tip of a hypodermic needle that had broken off inside.The autopsy revealed that Kevin had died from a heroine overdose. The next week, the police removed the balls from the ball pit. There was rotten food, several hypodermic needles: some full, some used; knives, half-eaten lollies, nappies, faeces, and the stench of urine. (You can find thearticle on Kevin Archer in the October 10,1999 issue of the MidlandChronicle.)

Don't think it's just McDonald's either. A little boy had been playing in a ball pit @ a Hungry Jacks & started complaining of his legs hurting. He later died too. He was found to have snake bites all over his legs &buttocks. When they cleaned the ball pit they found that there was a copperhead's nest in the ball pit. He had suffered numerous bites from a very poisonous snake.

Repost this if it scares the crap out of you!! Repost this if you care about kids!! Please forward this to all loving mothers, fathers and anyone who loves and cares for children!! What has this world come to??If a child is not safe in a child's play area then where??'

It sounds scary... What should be done abt this???
Be safe than sorry??

Mummy will need to re-consider if I am allowed to play in another ball pit the next time round.

*sigh*

2008-11-10T22:28:00.003+08:00

Over the weekend, mummy tries out a new recipe for me.

'Mee Sua'... Here's how itz prepared...

Soak washed ikan bilis n cherry tomatoes in hot water prior to cooking, say abt an hour before. Boil under small fire, sieve out the ikan bilis n cherry tomatoes as the soup starts to boil. Add in well-chopped pork loin. Once it starts to boil, add in mee-sua and well-chopped spinach & pumpkin. Ready in serving bowl, making sure mee sua is cut into 'chew & swallow' -friendly for us.

*yumyum*

Both kor-kor and I luv it so much.

For past few nites, I have been waking up around 4+am. Mummy having to feed me water n put me to sleep again with my 'Chou-Chou' and pacifier. The most I can tahan is till 6+am.

Either Mummy quickly dreamfeed me with milk and get me on with my sleep thereafter, or I will be wide awake by 6+am if no milk given @ 4+am. I dun like bottle-feed when I m wide awake. Mummy got to add cereal to milk and feed me.

With this, Mummy is observing if it's time for her to increase my feeds gradually. Common sign of insufficient amount of feeds is wakey @ middle nite.

My mummy is in midst of considering whether or not should she get a new blog for herself. However her concerns are... Time to maintain and upkeep both mine and hers @ same time.

Mummy is in midst of job search. If she moves on should a new job comes along, she would not have time to blog anymore. Mummy luv to note her tots, so she is either gonna keep her tots 'manually' or via blogging. We shall wait n see...

Let's see if Mummy can really afford more time to blog for herself. But can u see that she has more interest in upkeeping my blog for me?

Hehe...

Meal A (if Brown Rice for lunch)
Plain rice porridge w/ Pork & Veg.

Meal B (if Cereal for lunch)
Steamed Brown Rice w/ Fish & Veg.

Mummy was told not to serve fish for my meals on daily basis as fish may cause phelgm. Hence, Mummy alternate fish and pork for my dinner.

'How true is it that daily intake of fish can lead to phlegm-prone?' Anyway, no harm heeding the advice. I have more variety for my dinner too! Yummy...

Macdonalds is our favourite supper-out venue. Normally, if everyone is not really tired-out after a day's of hard work, all of us will head towards Macdonalds.

My mummy luv the fries w/o salt especially when it goes so well with the garlic chilli.

*yummy!!!

Out of sudden, I become so expressive after some apple dipers treat from Daddy.

Our favourite ride... Itz so fun! Both Kor-Kor and myself enjoy the ride very much.

oOps... diArRhOea

2008-07-26T22:47:00.006+08:00

I caught the Diarrhoea virus. Oh No... I just came back from KKH A&E. Since this morning, I got diarrhoea and it was quite bad to the extent that I poo for almost 10 times in a day. Mummy starts to get worried when I have urge to vomit during my feeds and slight warm body temperature near evening time.

Doctor diagnosed me with Gastronenteritis. This refers to a gut (intestine) infection where there is diarrhoea. As advised... Most importantly, Mummy needs to watch out to avoid me getting dehydrated due the diarrhoea. So I need to increase my fluids intake.

'The most common cause of diarrhoea is a virus called rotavirus. Rotavirus causes gastroenteritis, an infection of the gut. The infection damages the inner lining of the intestine. The injured lining leaks fluid and allows food to pass through without absorbing any nutrients. Diarrhoea in babies can also be caused by formula feeds not being made up properly, colds, antibiotics, food poisoning, allergies, or more rarely, enzyme deficiencies.'

Suspecting if itz due to the egg yolk I had for dinner on friday nite. Itz not the 1st time I try out, the last time round I took was steamed egg. However, this time round was just mixed into my porridge and boiled. Mummy concludes that steamed egg is safer after this incident.

Haiz... Itz indeed awful to be unwell. Mummy & Daddy finds me less active, and they feel worried too.

Hopefully this naughty virus goes off soon...

Today, I'm 10mths old! Time flies...

Whole of morning till noon, I rest @ home. Suppose to do so coz Mummy wants me to be cooperative during the group photoshoot with all my other friends.

When I first meetup with my friends during the photoshoot, I was kinda shy. Nonetheless after some 'warm-up', I started my 'exchanges'... Exploring & tasting the flower pots, on-fours here and there, and keeping Mummy & Daddy real busy with me. Oopss... The photoshoot was done in an hour or so, and I knocked off in Daddy's ride in no time. zzZZzzz...

Dine-out @ usual place, Cafe Cartel IMM with Mummy, Daddy, Wendy Ee-Ee & Xunwu Kor-Kor. As Mummy had no time to prepare home-cooked dinner for me, she juz grabbed a food jar of veg. & beef from IMM supermart. Thatz my 1st try-out on beef! Yummy... So I do luv to take beef juz like my Mummy? Hee...

Erhmm... Yes??? I was so busy with the munching of my favourite bread for any pic pose...

1st Trio class kicks off on 3July. Itz on a weekly basis. I m having it with one of my friend, Aralyn.

The class is conducted in English, Mandarin & Japanese. Solely on one of the lanaguages each a week. Our class starts off with English, follow-by Japanese and Mandarin.

By now, 2nd class is done too. Somehow, Mummy feels that English class is far off better as compared to the Japanese class. Mummy knows nuts about what the sinseh is trying to convey during the Japanese class. Oopss...

Oh No! Feeling so awful with the slight fever.

Due to teething, I am not taking much water these few days. With the swollen upper gums, itz kinda painful. I am oso rejecting my feeds/meals. All these are making Mummy sad & @ lost.

2008-06-20T22:45:00.003+08:00

Hello, I am 9mths old today!

My milestones:
• Crawls well
• Stands while holding onto something
• Uses pincer grasp to pick up objects
• Cruises while holding onto furniture
• Bangs objects together
• Indicates wants with gestures
• Shakes head when Mummy says 'No'

My social & emotional development:
- I m beginning to understand simple requests. Mummy and rest of the adults say "No" when I try to touch the stuff on the living room's table etc. I'll pause and look at them.
- I also enjoy testing Mummy's responses to my behaviour. I'll throw my teethers/drinking cup on the floor just to see what Mummy will do. Then file Mummy's response in my memory bank Later I'll test the waters again to see whether Mummy reacts the same way. Sure enough, Mummy lets out the big 'No' again. Oopss...

Oopss... Wendy Ee-Ee juz called Mummy @ office to expose my somersault skills. Hehe... I was in standing pose on daddy & mummy's bed, supporting my playpen railings. The playpen is by the side of Daddy's & Mummy's bed. Then suddenly, I somersault into my playpen. Mummy must be so shocked about my acts.

My recent hobbies:

- Crawls on fours.

- Stands with support & shake-a-bombom.
- Sits steadily.

- Bangs on anything when I am excited.

- Getting used to be independent in the play yard, with all the toys to enjoy.

- Screams for Daddy's & Mummy's hugs when they are going to work.

- Enjoys looking @ Daddy's & Mummy's Wedding Photo.

A Mother's Heart

Before I was a Mom,
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom,
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on. Chewed on. Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom,
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom,
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom,
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know the bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom,
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.

*Auntie Eileen shared it. Shared here too, coz this is gonna be my Mummy's favourite poem! I Luv Mummy!!!*

But this morning, I screamed & screamed till Mummy gave up @ 120ml. Haiz... Mummy seems sad & disappointed.

I resume the lips sucking action again, behaving like a rabbit. Signs of teething again???
