6 - 10 Months Developmental Assessment

Today is my developmental assessment. We went to Yishun Polyclinic. Our appointment is @ 9am. The nurse did all the neccesary tests & i hv passed all of them. I was very active & wants to grab everything i can. The nurse says i'm very adorable. Though i am on the small side, at least i am healthy.

Next appointment will be my MMR jab. MMR stands for: Measles, Mumps & Rubella. The nurse told mummy to start giving me egg yolks now & then egg white at 1 years old. Cos MMR jabs contains egg proteins & they wanna make sure i am not sensitive to eggs.

Mummy also make an appointment for Kor Kor for his 3 years old DA. Actually, Mummy wanted to hv Kor Kor's DA done together with me but the nurse told Mummy strictly by appointment only. Mummy's fault la...she put off calling in to make an apptmt for Kor Kor till yesterday.

Anyway, Kor Kor's DA will be the same day as me on the 18 Oct 2008.

** My milestones: W: 7kg H: 67cm. Head Circumference: 44cm.

Update on Rachel.

Mummy: Yippee! Rachel is on the road to recovery. Her fever has subsided & her flu has stopped. Only dried mucous remains but dat is easily cleared. She is all smiles & her hyper activeness has returned. Only her cough remains but dat is also recovering.

To the bugs: Your visa has expired so pls return back to where you came from. There is no point doing an extension becos it will not be permitted & granted. Your flight has been confirm so pls do an immediate boarding & head on to your designated destination - BUG LAND. NEVER EVER RETURN!

On a happier note, Rachel has begun her commando crawl. She loves going backwards instead of forwards. When her backside hits against a hard surface, she will push herself up into a sitting position. Haha....self learning...seriously, no one taught her to do dat. Keke...

And on a much much happier note, she has also learn to stand up. Hehe... i mean, she is able to grab a solid, stable surface & pulled herself up to a kneeling position. Then slowly put one foot out & try to stand up. Trial & error la...she's nt dat stable yet. Most of the time, the kneeling position is all she can manage. Then after a few secs, she is back down to sitting again. Well...i'm very happy with her progress. Will let her progress at her own pace.. dun wanna stress her & myself up cos i know some babies at her age are much much faster learners & hv progress way in advance. Neh! Slow & steady wins the race.

Sicky Rachel.

Mummy: Rachel came down with a fever on Tues night. Its actually considered Wed morning la cos it was around 2am plus. I woke up to give Rachel her milk as she was crying for it when i felt her body hot. Immediately, i gave her a dose of paracetomol ( kids' panadol syrup). From then on, her fever was on & off. Her eyes were sunken, she does nt smile, she gets cranky & only wants me to carry.

On Thursday, the cough bug came avisting & never left since. Followed by Fri evening, after 1 sneeze, she caught the flu bug. Haiz...fever, cough & flu...Mil bot her to see a doctor & was prescribe both flu & cough syrup. Poor darling! Lets hope she will get well soon.

Rachel, fight away the bugs & get well soon. You are too lovable to fall sick. We wanna see u smile again. Mummy, Daddy & Kor Kor all waiting for u to get well.

To the bugs: GET LOST U IRRITATING PEST! GO TO YOUR PEST LAND & ROT THERE!

Genius R Us

Yesterday 12 Apr (sat), Mummy bot me to Genius R Us for some baking lessons. She booked the tickets thru sistic website which cost $21 per person. If you go to Genius R Us website: http://geniusrus.com/ you can also booked the package of $204 for 4 lessons in cookies baking, ice cream making, pizza making & cupcakes.
The lesson starts at 3pm. Very heatic for Mummy as she has to work till 1pm, rushed back to Yishun to pick me up, then rushed down to Tanjong Pagar again. When we reached TP, we sort of lost our way; where is the building or sch located? Mummy was tinking: 75 Tanjong Pagar Road, 75, 75, 75..... Should be those shophouses along the main road ba. We went in that direction & presto, we found the unit. A kind uncle even told us go up to the 3rd floor...haha...is as if he knows where we heading to.
Initially i refused to enter the class. I told Mummy i wanna go for the duck tour instead. Mummy says after the class, we will go for the tour. Mummy helped me to put on the apron & we settled down. Mothers...knowing them...they will do all sorts to pacify us. Dat's wat Mummy did. She begin to point put to me the various ingredients used in our baking session & show me the different cutters. I forgot abt myself being scared & eager to start the lesson. Mummy says to wait for the teacher.
Our teacher is Violet. She is very nice. She taught us to mixed the flour & butter together, rolled into a dough & start using the cutters to shape the various designs. We did bear, car, heart, star, duck, caterpillar, elephant, hippo, penguin,etc...
We waited for awhile while teacher Violet sends our cookies into the oven. it takes abt 15 mins to bake. We were each given a box to put our cookies in.
After we got our cookies, we immediately left as we have our duck tour ride to catch. Quick Mummy quick, we gonna be late!.

Desparately, Mummy tried to hail to taxi but all were "hired". After a long wait of abt 15 mins, we finally managed to catch one. We head for Suntec where Mummy was supposed to collect the tickets half an hour b4 the ride. Luckily we managed to arrive & collect our tickets 5 mins b4 the ride...muahahah
** Note: Phone reservations for the duck ride was $33 per adt & $2 per child (below 3 yrs)...ahem...i'm of cos slightly abve 3 years liao la..but when we went to collect our tickets, we were only charged at $25.10. Mummy wondered why but she cant be bothered lor...haha...the cheaper the better...hahahah.

A big scare

Mummy: Last night on the way home from a relatives' place (his son, Ethan, js turn 1 mth), Lionel was sitting at the back of the car, chatting earnestly with daddy when daddy brake all of a sudden & Lionel fell off his seat onto the car floor. We immediately stopped the car & turn ard, asking lionel if he is ok, did he hurt himself, his head, his hands or legs or his buttocks? anywhere in pain? he replied he is ok, no pain & gave us a big smile. Phew! On the road again.

Blabbering non stop once more (he's so energetic whereas, mummy on the other hand, falling asleep soon). Daddy, once again make a sharp turn, causing our poor boy to fall right off his seat & onto the car floor again. i was screaming at hb for making dat sharp turn; wat the hell he did that for. Immediately we stopped ther car by the road side again. We turned ard. Lionel was face down, nt moving. My heart racing, stopped, dropped. Daddy bend over & carried Lionel up; i was calling his name again & again. Lionel gave a small wince, then a loud scream & burst out crying very hard. Daddy & me ran our hands all over him, asking whtr he is hurt, whtr is he in any pain, etc... we squeezed him all over, rubbed on his bones, joints, checked all over. Still he say no pain. Thought we were quite worried, he still seems to be his old bubbly self. I tink he was in temp shock only.

Daddy wanted Lionel to sit with me in front on my lap but he refused, saying he rather sit behind. i warned hb to go slow NOW, no sharp turns & sudden brakes, pls...

We reached home safely in the end. Phew!

Mummy & Rachel @ Night Safari

Photo with the giant sea lion .

Yesterday, 05 Apr, Granny bot us kids to the zoo & night safari. We reached the zoo at about 2pm & saw that there is an elephant show @ 3pm, so we made our way to the site.
But it began to drizzle & we were wondering whtr the show wld be called off anot due to weather conditions. But luckily, God saw hw eager the crowd was & helded back the rain. But towards the ending part of the show, the rain came in strong & heavy. Everyone got stuck. Luckily the seating area was sheltered, otherwise, all of us wld be drenched. Waiting...waiting...still the rain wldnt stop...sianz liao lor...there is another show @ Splash Amphitheatre; show on penguins, sea lions, walrus, etc... Its already 4.30pm, hw to go? Well, Mummy says its only a drizzle now; better leave b4 its too late again. So with Rachel inside her pram with the canopy over her to prevent her from gettin wet, and Mummy pushing the pram along, Granny & me sharing an umbrella, we made our way to the amphitheatre.
Bright sunlight, rain stopped. Kaoz! But as the seats were wet with the heavy rain js now, there were no place to really sit down. So end up we just stood around watching the show But then leh, the stupid ranger came & ask us & all those around to sit down. "but the seats are all wet, where to sit, u tell me" Mummy shoot. The ranger apologises & told us to try finding some dry spots. As if there are. Hmmmph!
We sat on the 1st row not realising there will be some suprises given to us later on. We didnt hear the annoucement. We are really in for it. The show started with the sea lion making its appearance. Flippers! Splash! Wet! Thanks for the showers of blessings! God have given it to us prior. Thanks again.
So Granny, Mummy & myself got wet; head to toe. Only Rachel remained dry as the canopy was still over her. But then leh, the stroller wasnt water proof but the strong sun soon dry the stroller.
We left the zoo for dinner & make our way to night safari. We took the tram ard the premises & saw quite a no of night creatures. Rachel fell asleep on the tram. After the ride, we went to watched the night show @ 8.30pm. Wow! Full house! There were some excitment created as part of the show. Dun wanna tell u folks wat happen. Go to night safari & see for urself. Hint: Choose ur seats properly, otherwise a big & scary surprises awaits you. ( not for the faint hearted ) For those of you who hv been to night safari, then you shd know wat surprise i meant. Haha...
It was slightly after 10pm when we reached home. Zzzzzzz....
