Nicole on the go!

Mummy has bought Nicole a new bag! It cost S$19.90 from Auntie Susan of Dognamite. She looks so pretty with the bag. So what does it have in the bag? Two plastic bags, tissue paper and her fav "wang wang".

Now she is ready to go kgai kgai... So the next time if someone invites her for a curry potato meal again, she can bring along her bag to pack some home for Mummy as well. If she is unwell the next time after makan, she can take out her tissue paper and plastic bag to do her puking and poo poo...

Nicole is starring at her bag cos she is figuring out how to take out her "wang wang" Hee hee.....

Siblings Rivalry

Nicole is feeling better today after 2 days of diarrhea and constant nagging from Mummy. She had started asking for food this afternoon. She kept leading me to the kitchen so I gave her her favourite carrot and apple.

As for dinner, Mummy prepared her usual Natural Balance mixed with cooked Salmon but she wouldn't come over to eat her dinner. So I started nagging her again.

Mum: "Nicole, look! It's fish fish in the bowl! Come and eat your dinner."
Nicole: She walked around her bowl and walked away.
Mum: "Ok! U dun wanna eat dinner again! So u wanna go 2nd floor to eat curry and potato again hah!"
Nicole: Starring at Mummy .. : - <<
Mum: "Ok, fine! I'll let didi finish your dinner..." (Mummy pretended to feed the curious didi... Little glutton Julian opened his mouth and really waiting for the food.)

Nicole finally decided she MUST finish her food before Little Julian finish it for her. So she finished her dinner and got her APPLE.

Now Daddy has brought her down for a walk and they ended up in a coffeeshop having a drinking session with Daddy's friends. I think Nicole must be drinking "GUINNESS STOUT" NOW!

`````````````````

Naughty Julian has a "fine" taste for food. He is beginning to refuse porridge but will eat other food like noodle. So this afternoon lazy Mummy ordered a bowl of fishball "lao zu fen" for him. He finished half a bowl.

For Dinner, Mummy cooked Macroni with Threadfin and Spinach for him. He finished that too and 1 quarter piece of apple.

I really dun understand how MY CHILDREN can develop this kind of "FINE TASTE"! Nicole won't eat DOG food and Julian won't eat BABY food!

SHIT!

Today is Mama's SHIT DAY! I have to pick up all the shit after the 2 of them or do stool analysis for Nicole.

It started in the morning with a pool of shit in the toilet. It belongs to Nicole. She has an upset stomach since yesterday. Then it was Julian's one.... Nicole's one... Julian's one.......

There is traces of blood in Nicole's stool. Her stool is still a bit watery. I'm worry so I monitored her stool for the whole day. If this persist tomorrow, then Mummy will have to bring her to the vet.

While Mummy is heartache and worry over Nicole's upset tummy but still nagging her the whole day for accepting stranger's food!

Nicole in Suspense

Nicole left home mysteriously this morning. Daddy has to look for her floor by floor. Someone said she saw her on the 2nd flr but Daddy couldn't find her there. Daddy found her on the way home on the 9th flr instead.

Shortly after she returned home, we saw her doing circles on the rug so we thought she needed to poo so Mummy hurried her to the garden. But I saw a pool of vomit at the gate on our way out. There was traces of potatoes... Oh no! Someone must have feed her! I asked Daddy to clear the vomit. Later Daddy called n said there was a pool of shit in the kitchen. Nicole had a diarrhoea!

Later Nicole had another bout of diarrhoea in the garden. I called the vet for symptoms of food poisoning. I was told to monitor her for a while more and if symptoms persisted, send her down to the clinic.

I then walked her every floor to find out what happened during her disappearance. Some kids told me, there saw a indian man feeding her on the 2nd floor.

Later Daddy went down to 2nd floor to find the indian man but couldn't find him. Luckily, Nicole is fine now.

Julian's Fever Update

Finally Julian's fever has subsided but rashes have developed over his handsome face. No worry, according to the Paediatrician, it is normal.

Daddy has realised the differences of seeing a PD and GP. A GP charges S$15.00 for consultation whereas PD charges S$45.00. A GP will prescribed paracetamol and just that but a PD gave Daddy and Mummy a precious lesson on FEVER MANAGEMENT.

Attention all Mummies, this is the excerpts of FEVER MANAGEMENT:-

• The fever will normally last for 3 days.
• No worries even if temperature hit 40 degree Celsius if baby is still active. However, if baby is lethargic even at 38 degree Celsius, parents to be alerted.
• Rashes will develop after fever subsides.

My PD gave instruction to feed Julian CALPOL SUSPENSION every 6 hourly if fever is above 38 degree Celsius and 4 hourly if it is above 39 degree Celsius.

GP has never mentioned all these so if Mummy sees all the rashes on Julian's face today, Mummy would have rash my handsome son back to the GP again. So the cost of consulting the GP and PD will come to the same or even more ex! (Conclusion: See a PD if you are unsure! Money well spend!)

~~~~~~~~~~

Baby Julian has now become Baby Juliana! He is so "teh" now. Like a cry baby. So sticky like a plaster to Mummy and Daddy. He refuses to sleep on his own and insists that he must be cuddled to sleep. Once he has fallen asleep and u put him back on the bed, he'll cry like Daddy and Mummy has abused him! Naughty Juliana!

My Lovely Children

Mummy finally managed to put the 2 darlings together to take this precious photo. It takes a lot of co-ordination. Thanks for your cooperation.

Julian's sick

Baby Julian is down with a fever since 03.03.2007. His temperature has been up & down around 38 degree celsius and 39 degree celsius. He is so sticky to Mummy all the time. Mummy has no time for anything except to be with this little Prince.

Julian's First Bet

Mummy has used Julian's ang bao money ~ S$3.00 to buy a QuickPick for the 02.03.2007 S$10m Ang Bao Draw. There are altogether 2 person striked but Not Julian & Mummy. The result is 05 06 16 17 28 35 (14). Daddy said Julian can try again next year!

Peek A Boo

Baby Julian has learnt to play Peek A Boo with Mummy! Whenever I used my hand to cover my face and asked "Julian, where's Mummy?", he will happily use his hands to lift up my hands to see my face.

A for APPLE

Baby Julian has been uttering "Aaaaaaa" some time ago and he wouldn't compromise for a Bbbbbb.... That goes the same for Apple not Banana.

The fruitseller said banana is good for baby cos it is full of potassium so Mummy bought a bunch of it for him. The first day after dinner, Mummy mashed 1 banana for him. After this, that's it! He refused to eat a banana anymore! He will spit it out no matter how hard I tried. However, it's a different story for an APPLE! He will skretch his body with his mouth open whenever he see an APPLE! So as his jie jie - Nicole. Both children will gather around the apple. So Mummy is stocking up APPLES for the 2 precious one.

Julian's milestone @ 7m

Baby Julian is 7month old now. He is like a fully charged Energizer - Always eveready! Everyone is so scare to look after him. That includes Daddy, he will always try to "push" Baby Julian to Mummy. Mummy is so tired taking care of him.

Julian First CNY 2007

This is a special Chinese New Year for Daddy and Mummy cos we have a new addition to complete our family. IT'S BABY JULIAN. This is baby Julian's first CNY 2007. Alot of photos were taken with this new little pet.

(P.S.: all photos are uploaded in the FLICKR album. Pls help yourself with it!)

Julian new chair

(Notice his "chow ah beng" sitting style)

Daddy & Mummy bought a new chair for Julian at Marsiling. The Auntie said it is an antique chair so S$35.00 - NO FURTHER DISCOUNT! She gave Mummy some pointers about parenting for FOC but it doesn't apply to Julian cos he is too naughty! Even the Auntie has to agree with that. This chair is meant for his meal time cos he can't sit still on the other one that he has. BUT two days later, Julian managed to "escape" from this one too! So Mummy has to heed the Auntie's advice by tying one of his leg to the chair.

My Angels

It was 4am before dawn and the night was cool. My children decided to come up for a cosy cuddle. Baby Julian wanted warm milk fresh from Mummy's breasts and Nicole wanted to have a nice massage. Th sleep deprived Mummy had to accede to their request. My children really know how to enjoy themselves! The piggy Daddy was snoring away. So jealous.

Loving sister

Mummy was busy doing post CNY laundry yesterday when baby Julian was awake in the room and crying. Mummy asked Nicole to go look after her brother. Surprisingly, Nicole understood and she dashed into the room. When I went into the room moment later, I saw Nicole lying beside the crying Julian and licking his foot. What a touching scene! Nicole has assumed her role as a BIG SISTER!

When she saw Mummy's here, she was so happy that she wagged her tail. After I lifted up Julian. She started licking his feet and hands. What a loving jie jie she is. My darling Nicole.

Julian's update

Busy...........very busy for the CNY preparation. This year I have 2 darlings with us celebrating the festival. No time to blog. Auntie Unique is complaining already.

Julian is coming 7 months soon n he has developed stranger anxiety. Nobody can get close to him for long not even daddy now. He is a very cheerful and active baby. Once he opens his eyes, he will do his leapard crawls n stand with support. Mummy is always beside him to ensure he doesn't fall on the wrong place. (Darling Julian, Mummy is aching all over the place....)

Oh yes! Baby Julian will be attending a baby show on 25.03.2007 Sunday 8.30am - 12nn at Kaki Bukit CC. Any supporters?

Julian's lovebite

Lovebite from Prince Julian (see the two teeth marks)

Auntie Winnie & Unique must be laughing now....it's mummy's retribution. They have waited for 35 years...

Mummy's dearest little princess & prince

Julian's lovebite

Look at this pic carefully, notice the teeth mark? It was a love bite from Daddy. Poor Julian, Mummy will send this pic to SPCA, ok?

Lazy Julian

This is how our lazy Julian is eating his teething biscuit...

He has been holding the biscuit for a while but after some time he decided that this should be the better way to eat it.

Naughty Nicole

Look at this little creature here. Mummy has brought Nicole for her usual walk. She saw this little thing and kept smelling it. Finally she decided to pee on it. Poor snail, u must be obstructing the little princess path.

Nicole's sick

Mummy is feeling very guilty cos' I have caused her ear inflammation. Mummy was too careless to have let water ran into her ear. Poor Nicole...

Nicole needs glasses

Our dearest blur Nicole...

We were having lunch at Hawker Centre. Nicole was following just next to mummy. I meant SIDE by SIDE. Daddy had found a table and waved for mummy to come over so I made a left turn to walk over to Daddy. Guess what! Our dear Nicole was actually not looking & she was following the pair of legs in front of her! So when the uncle stopped, she stopped & realised that it was not Mummy! She panic & smelt the uncle's legs. (Maybe she was still thinking how come Mummy has changed!) We were only about 2 tables away & she started pacing up & down, sticking her neck long to look for us (if only she looked at her right). She just ignored Mummy calling her name & finally her daddy clapped his hand. Goodness! She finally saw us. Mummy was standing infront of her! Nicole wagged her tail at Mummy but Mummy response was "Nicole, U blind hah?!). The KPOs were laughing at our blur Nicole who created a scene there.

Julian's milestone @ 6m

"All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth....." Santa Claus had granted Julian's wish. He got it before Christmas. Now Julian is wishing for his two upper front teeth for the coming CNY & WISH GRANTED! Julian is teething again!

Not only that, Mummy has just discovered that Julian can bring himself to sit up today.

(P.S. dear Julian, dun you think u r growing too fast......)

Nicole's Breakfast time

Nicole's at KouFu coffeeshop waiting for her breakfast.
Breakfast is ......... Hmmm..... half boiled eggs, kaya toasts and Kopi-O.

(Nicole, dream on....OK? tan gu gu... Your breakfast, lunch, dinner is dog food, dog food, dog food........................................)

Princess Nicole's Visit

Princess Nicole visited her cousin Baby on 21.01.2007 (Sun). She also brought along a pack of her newly bought food - Natural Balance, Venison & Brown Rice for him to wish him a speedy recovery. Such a considerate gesture, no wonder Baby has been waging his tail so much when he saw his cousin.

Julian is 6m old

Mummy has finally fulfilled the standard 6 months requirement of "National Service". Mummy has to endure high fever due to infection, abstain from my favourite tea, engorgements, expressing milk in wee hours when everyone is snoring.......but Mummy really enjoys the breastfeeding moments with u. Mummy will continue to do it for as long as I can.... Love Julian.

Thanks to Auntie Yaying (our confinement super nanny) who had taught mummy the art of breastfeeding & helped me to massage my breasts so that the flow would kick in. Even since, there is no looking back.... Dun believe, just look into our freezer.


Julian's milk storage.... (Never expect "Mummy's airport" can do wonders....)

The Arrival of Prince & Princess at 黄亚细肉骨茶

Prince Julian & Princess Nicole visited 黄亚细肉骨茶 eating house on the 17.01.2007. Prince Julian had a few grains of rice & Princess Nicole had a piece of ice. Their followers had a sumptuous bak gu teh, braised trotter & mushrooms...

Julian's Passport

Julian First Passport

Julian collected his first passport on the 17.01.2007 (Wed), 1615hr. It costs Mummy S$70.00.

(Unable to scan his passport photo right now....will update it soon.)

贞子又来了!!

It's 5am, I felt something moving between my legs. O! 贞子又来了!! This time, instead of crawling upward and sideway, baby Julian decided to crawl downward. This gives him more space to crawl, no wonder he is not screaming this time... but Mummy caught him in time before he crawls down the mattress.

Princess Nicole

Princess Nicole has been very moody recently. She has been throwing tantrum like peeing on the rug thrice. I guess it's becos Mummy has spent too much time taking care of didi Julian. In order to appease my little darling, Mummy has personally drove her to her grooming session and stayed with her throughout her grooming session for 4.5hours. Mummy has also bought her a cheong sam for this coming CNY.

Dear Nicole, please dun be jealous of your baby brother. U are still the apple of Daddy and Mummy's eyes. Mummy has to take care of baby Julian cos he is still a little puppy, cannot walk, cannot sit and cannot even crawl properly. When baby Julian grows up, Mummy will spend more time with u. Julian will also love you very much.

Princess Nicole in her cheong sam (still refuse to face the camera)

Sleeping Beauty

Baby Julian had fallen asleep while eating his porridge. Notice the porridge on his mouth. (Julian, u so sleepy ah? Or mummy's porridge is so awful that u have to pretend to be asleep?)

Julian's new playground & toy

This is Julian's new playground created by Daddy after his fall. The Pooh Bear Bolster is from mummy to replace his baby bolster which is too short for him now. However, Julian is sentimental, he still prefer his old one. He regards the new one as a toy... As to why he has a hood on his head....Hmmm.....cos mummy is too bore at home lor so Baby Julian becomes mummy toy toy.

Julian at Auntie Tracy's Wedding

This is the 2nd time Julian attended wedding dinners. The first one was on 04.06.2006, uncle Jason and auntie Sharon's wedding. Baby Julian was still in Mummy's tummy. Mummy was wearing the same dress with a big tummy!

We were suppose to attend uncle Ed and auntie Anne's wedding on 22.07.2006 but baby Julian was borned on 20.07.2006 and we were in confinement.

Now we are attending auntie Tracy's wedding, 07.01.2007. Baby Julian behaved very well that day.

Baby Hercule

Never expect I'll give birth to a Hercule. Naughty Baby Julian has started a new habit. He will scream in the middle of the night for Daddy or Mummy to open up his diaper so that he can pee...

Daddy has requested Mummy to buy L size diapers for him. Daddy's rationale is baby Julian always sleep on his tummy therefore flattens the diaper, as a result, he can't point his "lan jiao" and pee...
(Conclusion: Daddy is trying to say - my son "lan jiao si bei tua kee lah...." Winnie yiyi sure got a lot of comment)

Fallen Angel (Part II)

(Accident scenes...bloddy tissues left by Daddy)

(Julian with a sausage upper lip... Shirt still covered with blood)

It was 05.01.2007, 7am. Baby Julian fell off the bed the second time under Daddy's supervision again. This time, his mouth bled. The loud falling thud woke mummy up. Mummy quickly transformed into a Supermum again. Immediately dressed up for Mt. Alvernia without even brusing teeth and combing hair... Mummy took an ice pack to stop the bleeding.

The doctor reprimanded Daddy and Mummy for being careless n shouldn't let an active baby sleep in the bed without supervision.

(P.S. Sorry mummy, I will be a spiderman and be happy with the crawling.... I won't try to be a Superman again...)

贞子来了哈哈哈!

(Julian learns to crawl)

This is how Julian crawl... lifting his butt but not his head. Looks like the famous 贞子 that crawl out of TV...

Little Julian will only lift up his head once in a while to check if he has reached his destination. Then he will start crawling again....

Nicole's sick

Nicole saw a vet yesterday. She is diagnosed to have skin allergy. So she is on medication now.... Poor Nicole.

Daddy's hospitalised

Daddy was hospitalised on the New Year Eve of 2006. Mummy said Daddy had a stomach ulcer due to too much alcohol.... So I spent my first New Year countdown with Mummy and Jie Jie Nicole.

Will I get an ulcer in my tummy cos I've too much milk milk?? Hmmm, still thinking....
