FollowThe more you do it, the better you are at it, that’s Math! Once you stop, your brain tends to get dense and you need lots of practise to start the momentum again. I get Alycia and Sherilyn to do Math equations everyday or at least every other day. 4+2 is ….. four is bigger than two,…

DIY Sandwiches
Alycia and Sherilyn are pretty independant girls. They can now do almost everything themselves – taking their bath, wash up after poopie business, make their own bed, tidy up their drawers, dress up, getting ready to go to school (Sher needs lots and lots of improvement on this though. She is the world’s no. 1 ‘lau hei…

Homemade Strawberry Jam
My mum, the great jam maker makes all types of jams and bread spreads. Some of her specialties are peanut butter, caramel kaya, pandan kaya, marmalade, mandarin orange jam, red dragon fruit jam, durian jam and pineapple jam. My favorite is her kaya and strawberry jam. It’s SO easy peasy to make strawberry jam and…

Random Pix
Alycia and Sherilyn goofing around after swimming. Swimming is now Alycia’s favorite past time. After several months of lessons, she can now swim from one end of the pool to another with a swimming board. She has now overcome her phobia of water. She is absolutely hooked on swimming now and always tells me that she…
Baby Flosses Her Teeth
Food always gets lodged between Baby’s 2 bottom front incisors (she only has 2 teeth at the bottom) and it always has to be there and no more where else. Removing the food from between the teeth is a tall order. I normally use a wet hanky but at times, I would accidentally hurt her gums…
Baby’s Appetite Has Returned, YAY!
After a bout of super low appetite during her recent UTI attack, Baby’s appetite has made a come back, at an all-time high since Saturday. On Saturday, she ate 1 full bowl of chicken-pork ribs-abalone porridge. Porridge was something that she never really fancied but that night, she gobbled down the porridge. Yesterday night over…
Baby ‘Discharged’ From Hospital
Yesteray I tried using the potty method to collect Baby’s pee. I used 2 sterilizing tablets to sterilize the potty prior to getting Baby to pee inside. After she had peed, I poured the pee into the sterile specimen bottle. The results still showed some WBC, though reduced significantly. When I told the paed about my…
Fruitless And Stressful Day
It was a fruitless, stressful and super frustrating day for me yesterday. My maid and I had spent the whole day coaxing Baby to pee into the specimen bottle but she just would not cooperate. I kid you not, we really spent the whole day from 9:30am through 5ish pm with lunch break and short…
Baby C, The Bravest Baby Ever
Baby’s fever has subsided since yesterday. I will be bringing her to the hospital again soon. Our paed said that if she is fever-free for more than 24 hours, the antibiotics jabs can be stopped. My next hurdle is to feed her with oral antibiotics for the next 1-2 weeks. Today, we are to collect…
Alycia, The Best Jie Jie Ever
These pix were taken 2 days ago when Baby was down with high fever and was feeling under the weather. She was terribly crabby and edgy and would cry over the slightest things. After I had dressed Baby up to get her ready to go to the hospital, Alycia zoomed into the room and comforted…

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Alice.com. All opinions are 100% mine. When I was still employed, I hardly stop to think twice whether I really needed an item before I bought it. I was earning a comfortable salary and I could afford to buy almost anything that I fancied.…
Baby C Is Hospitalized For UTI
…but she’s on home leave, which means the doctor has given us consent to go home. However, I have to bring Baby to the hospital 3x a day for antibiotics jabs. This is Baby’s first UTI since her Ureteral Reimplantation surgery more than 6 months ago. Both the surgeon and I are perplexed as to…
Designer Jewelries For My Online Store Perhaps?
My online store turned 1 month old several days ago. Business has been really promising and I have to thank readers of my blogs for their patronage. The majority of my customers are actually readers of my blogs. I am thankful to God that I have been able to meet my supplier’s target and have…
Blue Cheese Bread
This is a backdated post. My mil made a few loaves of blue cheese wheat bran bread about a month ago. It was her first try baking blue cheese bread. Hubs giving his mum a helping hand in plaiting the dough. The dough has to be placed in this special wooden bowl sprinkled with flour so that…
