OUCH!!!

We called up Alfred using 3G on Tuesday night and to my surprise, I saw Alfred right eye swollen. I ask my MIL, she said it was bitten by mosquitoes. When we hang up, I told KS, I’m going home tomorrow.

Yesterday, we went home straight after work. The first reaction when Alfred saw me, he pointing at his face with his pouty lips saying “pain, pain”. That my boy, complaining. I notice not only the eye lids were bitten by “red DEVIL ant” actually and not mosquitoes as described by my MIL through the phone, but the neck and ring finger of his right hand was bitten also. Poor boy! My heart was crying badly when I saw Alfred. Let the picture do the talking of how bad his face was really like.

Did you notice his neck is also swollen?

I did post up 3 other post down here. I feel bad of late updating. Just can't find the right time for updating. Poor time management!!!

Here the 3 post below :

Thanks for staying up with me.

Grandma's Birthday & Mother's Day

According to Chinese calendar, my mother in law birthday fall on Wesak Day. That was a day before Mother’s Day. So, we celebrated Mother’s Day together with my MIL birthday. My sister in law bought MIL a cake. We sang birthday song and we took a family picture. The next day, we went out for dinner.

Alfred, Grandma and Hao Siang (cousin bro)

As for me on Mother’s Day, I got a lovely mother cards from Alfred. I was actually just finished bathing and when I reached my room, Alfred is holding a card. Daddy asks him to handover the card to mommy and he did. But later, when we look at the card together, he bites the card. Hahahaha!! What you expect from a 1 ½ years old boy, even the handwriting of the cards belongs to daddy and hand prints belong to Alfred. I love you, both of you very much. That’s was my first mother celebration.

Holding the card proudly

Prove HE bite the card

Mommy Love You, Alfred

My Birthday..

I do not celebrate my birthday like I used to celebrate year before. I used to go out for a luxury dinner with my hubs, we went shopping or travel. But, this year I just wanted to spend a lovely day with Alfred and KS. I took a day off from work which is actually two days as the earlier day, Alfred was schedule for checkup. We spend time sleeping, take our leisure time for breakfast, went back to my in law house where Alfred took a nap. I and hubs went out for lunch while Alfred was sleeping. Later we had our dinner at my in law house. We went shopping after the dinner and KS bought me a skin care range as my birthday present which I love it so much. When we on our way home, the time had reach 10pm and most of the shop had closed. Just the tiny cake shop was left with one customer. To my surprise, KS stop at that shop, begging the cashier to let him buy a cake for me. I ask him how he persuades the cashier, he said, “Can I be your last customer please, today is my lovely wife birthday and I haven’t bought her a cake.” That melts me down!! That’s was actually the best birthday gift.

Rattan Chair

We bought Alfred a rattan chair to associate with his new seat. It’s just small enough to fit in Alfred custom seat.

We just had Alfred checkup last week after a month trying on the seat and I can see improvement on Alfred. At least he is sitting upright and not like he used to sit in a bending way. The visit turn out good and we only need to return to the clinic after 3 months to see more result. I can say that Alfred growing is little bit left behind from the achon chart. He is now know how to stand by himself holding on, sit up on his own, walks a little with help and he wanted to get down the bed by his own knowing the bed height is actually higher than him, yet he still trying to get down although he fall once. That’s BOY!!

4 Posts in A Day

It’s been a very busy weeks for us. We have been travelling up and down for Alfred checkup which the date of each appointment is so near. When I took up 2 days leave in a week, it leave me bunch of work on working desk which is so annoying. My laptop was send back to the factory due to certain default. Ohh!! Too many coincidences but, I still manage to loadup 4 posts today. That’s huge!! Enjoy your day & Thank You for staying with me.

Injection Day + Daddy Birthday!!

Injection Day + Daddy Birthday

Alfred had his 1 ½ year old injections on Daddy Birthday. Both of us were on leave so that we could bring Alfred to get his final injection. Waiting for your turn is boring. We waited nearly for an hour for Alfred to get his injection. When our turn comes, the nurses will ask us the routine question and then he was given the injection. Last but not least, it ended up with crying and finally a love cuddle by his daddy to stop him from crying.

Waiting is BORING!!

Alfred's Injection!!!

The eye is still full with tear....He love being cuddle by daddy

Last Thursday during dinner, we had a small celebration with KS at my in law house. We bought home Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC). KS’s brother and sister bought a cake for KS. It’s so sweet of them. Alfred likes to eat the bread and the smash potato from KFC. We ended up the celebration with cutting cake session. Alfred loves the fruit cake. He even demanded daddy for the peach on top of the cake.

Lovely cake from KS Brother & Sister

Appointment on 7 April 2009

We are getting Alfred custom shape seating today. We can’t wait to see how does it look like and how does it help Alfred in getting his kyphosis better. Finally, when we get the seat and this is how it look like...

I took this custom shape seat at home because we didn't capture a good picture when we at the clinic.

We stay up at the clinic nearly for 4 hours. Doc would like to test Alfred on the seating condition every 20 minutes to see whether Alfred skin is hurts. The seat will give pressure on his spine exactly on the curve spine and it will also affect his skin. Alfred will stay on the seat every 20 minutes and rested an hour before the next seat applied so it won’t hurt it skin for one month. After his skin tissue get use with the seat, then he will be seated for an hour till its see improvement on his spine. We were lucky because Alfred did not resist on that seat. Yet, Alfred still resist being touch by doctor. He cried so hard whenever the doctor tried to adjust the seat. He called out "papa" and crying all the time. But "papa" is not working, he called out "jiejie" (my husband sister). He called their name for help, shaking his head and waving out his hands so that I could hug him out. He cried almost for 5 minutes and finally I hug him up.

1st Trail on the seat

2nd Trial on the seat

Hang around the hospital for 1 hours to test on the seat

Result from the chair

The redness will be reduce when we take him away and giving his skin a rest every 20 minutes of seating. We tried as often as we could so that the skin will adjust to the seating condition. After 1 month, we have to return to the clinic for follow up. Then, the time seating on the seat will be increase.

Inside the seat, there is a foam which give concentrating on the curve of the spine.

When we on the way back to PJ home...

Oh!! What a day!!

We went out for dinner on the same day before we send almost back to to our hometown. We had planned to bring Alfred for Japanese food. When we were in the Japanese restaurant, my hungry Alfred demanded food from the next table. He shouting at the couple and the couple thinks he just cute shouting. They did not know that Alfred actually pointing at their food. Oh gosh!! We know that we are late for dinner and my little Alfred was starving. That’s a bad daddy and mummy. Quickly we order our meal and luckily our meal came fast. He loved the eel rice set that I ordered for him. He even demanded that he want to eat by his owned. Of course, I'm only giving him fruit by his own. Well, my little boy had grown up now.
