Mafia 3 @ reunion dinner 2010

Mia said: "Wow! my left side and right side oso have 帅哥, I'm so happy!"


Finally we managed to organise a CNY 2010 reunion dinner. We had it at popo's favourite Canto Kitchen by Chef Kang. We had 盆菜,鱼生 and compliment desserts.

This year Uncle Daniel could not attend cos he was working and anyway, this year he prefer Philippine's cuisine. Unique yiyi misses all reunion dinners since she become a grandmother and she will join her son's family for the reunion dinner - normally will be fish and sweet potatoes meals from Natural Balance but this year she had additional dishes 干炒牛河and杨州炒饭. Although we are down with 2 but we are up with 3 more. Not just any 3 but mafia 3! They are also the reason why we were unable to have reunion all these years! Cos mommy and yiyi were busy producing the mafias for the last few years!

Another mad week. Effectively all 3 were sick 2 weeks ago. It started with Garwyn. He vomited twice in the middle of night, then fever start. The next day, Julian's turn. He had a fever for a week. Saw 2 pediatricians and finally did a blood test. He was given Augmentin and Amoxycillin to kill the virus and cost me almost S$500.00. ("Julian, next time use Mcafee or Norton to kill virus - only S$100+ and Unqiue yiyi said can kill alot of virus with added spywares somemore!") Nicole is troubled by skin problem and I even caused her half blind due to shampoo entering one of her eyes.

I was not able to sleep as I need to check their temperatures, sponge and medicate them in the middle of the nights. In the day time, I need to chase after Nicole to apple cream on her body, shower her with medicated shampoo every 3 days, and force her to take medicines.

Finally when they had recovered, my turn to fall sick but nobody bothers to take care of me : <

Last Sunday Julian told me while I was driving, "Mommy, I dun wanna become old!" I told him, "So? But everyone will grow old!" and Julian replied, "I just wanna become NEW!" Aaaa....... :8
He is right! Opposite of Old is New. My fault! I didn't tell him opposite of Old is Young too!

Gar Gar is 2

Our Family outing to the Jurong Bird Park


Finally Gar Gar is 2! His 2 years old birthday fell on a Sunday 24th Jan, I thought only Mommy, Auntie and Gor Gor would celebrate his birthday with him since Daddy is alway busy especially on weekends. Nevertheles, Daddy made an exception to make time to celebrate Prince Garwyn's 2 years birthday.
Gar Gar and dino

I had bought the Dinosaur exhibition tickets quite some times ago so we went to the Dino exhibition in the afternoon. Julian freak out when he saw the Dino and he cried throughout the walk. Garwyn was more brave.
Gar Gar and his birthday treat at Swenson

In the evening, it is our family tradition to celebrate and dine at Swenson.

Garwyn's sensitive nose

| | 0 You Bark here


Garwyn has an adenoid that is obstructing his airway. Mommy is busy with all the follow up in KK hospital. He has been on 12 weeks of Zrytec and 6 weeks of Nasonex. Recently mommy brought him for another follow up and has anticipated that he needs to go for a surgery. Fortunately Prof Tan said that his adenoid has shrunken a little and surgery is not required at the moment but he still need to continue his medication for a while.

Beside his block airway, he also had a "blockage" in his ass - he had constipation. He has been on Lactose and Colimix. Mommy also has to massage his tummy almost every nights. Every time he poo, he needs to use so much strength that he would shiver. Mommy had to resort to using suppository to end his suffering. Poor Garwyn : < Mommy thought maybe seeing a Chinese Physician would help but it was even worst. He still couldn't poo and his tummy got so bloated that he vomited almost everyday. Finally Mommy discarded all the Chinese medicine and brought him back to consult Dr Watt. She is really Gar Gar's saviour. Now he only needs to take 1 dose of Lactose and eat Papaya and he is doing his "business" almost everyday.




P.S.: Gar Gar, mommy is constantly worrying about you and I hope you will grow up strong and healthily.

Julian found 20 cents on the floor when shopping at Causeway Pt on 23rd Feb 2010. Remembering Daddy's advice - you can't pick thing on the floor except money" - he picked up the 20 cents and I advised him to spend it. He bought his favourite snacks - cheese ring in the nearby valueshop.

He picked a party pack at S$2.50 (Julian, u think your 20 cents is "牛车轮" so big!?) and queue in line, paid the cashier S$0.20. The cashier opened her eyes wide and stared at me. I paid the difference of S$2.30. In the end I heavily subsidised his cheesel! but seeing his happy face (cos he own it) is PRICELESS to me!
