...

Today is 5th day after we move in our new house - move in on 22 Dec 2008. I'm so tired as I only sleep about 5 hrs (interuptive sleep) during the night. Mei Mei may wake up at 3 or 4 in the morning to take her milk. And I have so many chores to do, feeding Jie Jie to eat, get her ready to school, pumping milk ...When I live together with my in law, everyday come back from work, my mother in law will help me take care of 2 girls till I finished my dinner and shower. But now, I have to do it myself and only got time to take bath at 10 or 11p.m. I can see the benefit of having elder at home now.

Both girls adapt to the new environment very fast, sleep well and Jie Jie now even can sleep by herself. The only problem is Mei Mei is having rashes all over her body, Ah Mah said may be is caused by the dust/dirt around the area (opposite house is still under renovation) and baby skin is too sensitive to that. Hubby also call up her sister to descript the situation and confirm Mei Mei is ok, no need to bring her to visit doctor. We all afraid is denggi, B'cos Mei Mei had a few bite in the face and neck by mosquitos since we move in the new house.

Another week, my holiday will be end, and start my hectic life again, see how am I going to cope with my job and family, no doubt, is time to be independent.

Teething

Kaitlyn keeps complaining her mouth is pain about 2-3 days. She's even have high fever during the past weekend, eat very less, whenever come to meal time, she'll cried and said pain...
Last night, we bring her to visit dentist (Clinic Yong) to see what's wrong with her teeth as she brush her teeth every night before go to bed, shouldn't be tooth decay. Papa call up to make appointment, but the receptionist said we can walk in around 8p.m, at 7 p.m Kaitlyn cried and ask us to bring her to dentist immediately, this make us so worry, after checking by Dr Lim, we've been told that she's having teething, 2 more molars is growing and that's why she feel so pain. Currently she have 18 teeth only, baby should have 20 baby teeth by age of 3. Dr said not to worry, it takes a few days for her molars to come through her gums and she would be fine!

Happy Momemts

I'm the only daughter at home, I grow up with my 2 brothers, 6 and 4 yrs elder than me. What they play with me is all the boylish activities.. likes playing badminton, catch fish in the river, playing fight fish, collecting cards and mables...

Now I have 2 daughters, and I can see how Jie Jie sayang her Mei Mei, even though sometimes she'll jealous on her also. Having a sister is fun, they can share their dresses, they can play cook cook together and when they grow up, they can share their "secret" hehe... which I never have this experience before. I wish this 2 little girls can grow up together happily.

Bento Tools collection

My bento tools collection, part of it bought from online, some given by friends as a souvenier from their Japan trip... I'm so lucky.

Bee Ean told me that I can get some cutters from "Sa Poh Lang Chang" shop, yes, when I have time, I'll go to have a look, hope can get some cheap and nice stuff!

Stands while holding onto something

Mei Mei is able to stand up when she get the support by holding on the baby cot, but only within a minute, she'll fall down. She've a spirit of never give up, keep trying to stand up again each time she falls. Other than that, she also able to sit up by herself, but still not firm yet, may need pillow support. Stop saying papapa for quite sometimes, but make eerr..ehhh..wawawa..sounds like complaining on something :) After all, I think she's following the milestone.

KL Trip

Last 2 weeks, we have a short trip to KL (29/11 and 30/11) with uncle George family. 1st stop is to IKEA (mama favourite furniture shop)

This is the 2nd year we have been to Traders Hotel, last year we also went there around year end, after papa come back from US trip. I still remember clearly Kaitlyn make a comments that she's very enjoy to stay in the hotel.
We have our dinner at Jogoya, japaneses buffet, and Kaitlyn don't really eat much, but yet still need to paid abt RM10++ because her height is between 80cm till 100cm.

2nd pic- We seldom take family photo, and this pic lack of Mei Mei, including her then it will be perfect. 3rd pic - Kaitlyn playing slide at KLCC park, until now, she's still not dare to play swing which all children love to.

Cut cut cut, everything cut

Hubby and me will have 10% pay cut start from Jan onwards! By looking at current situation, all expenses also have to cut. I'm so stress now especially we are moving to our new house soon, I can't imagine how many bills we have to pay every month!!
Yesterday, while shopping at Giant, I saw a Hello Kitty watch and bought it for Kaitlyn, cost RM12.90. After reach home, hubby open it and only realise it is not working, oh.. my god RM12.90 gone!! I shouldn't spend money this way, and I feel very regret of my spending habits.

First planting experience

This bean sprout was plant by Kaitlyn, it has been growing day by day. Kaitlyn is so happy to monitoring it grow everyday.

Having fun feeding Mei Mei

It has been a week we give Mei Mei baby porridge, during the feeding time, Jie Jie sure will come to kacau, asking me to let her feed. See her seriousness...

Refuse to open mouth

Kait Yee become smarter when come to take medicine. She refuse to open her mouth when papa take the syringe approaching her, even she cry, also with her mouth shut. Ah Mah already surrender, not able to get her drink the cough and runny nose syrup, have to wait for us to feed her. Kaitlyn is much more better, when I told her after you take the medicine, fever will go over, she understand it and co-operate with us since she very small. She likes medicines, no hard time for us. When Mei Mei grow up, hope she can understand too.

Sick Marathon

I can said that Doctor earn a lot of money from my family for this couple of weeks. We all falling sick, fever, runny nose, cough, sore throat, come one after another. After I have recover, the virus spread to 2 daughters and hubby and the virus is like keep circulating in the house. Our dining table is full of medicines...
So pity the small one, hard to breath b'cos of stuffing nose and cough terribly. Also difficult to give her medicine.. so tired, when it going to stop??? I think is time to build up our immune system. We are too weak, easy to attack by viruses!

Start solid

Mei Mei is exactly 6 mths old today. I'm going to introduce solid to her. I bought this organic baby porridge from Cold Storage. It consists of oats and millet, which is very nutrition. I plan to give her once every morning.
