@ 10 months

milestoneIt's long overdue, I know. So very sorry for not being as faithful in updating this blog compared to the scrapbooking blog. The AR challenges have occupied most of my time now, after work. I am always chasing, chasing to view the LOs that all the amazing gals did! Kudos! Anyway, for the past 2 weeks, have been pretty slow for me, with the long weekends, over the polling day, the Vesak Day. I wanted to take a break, getaway to overseas but I was too tired and aching all over to really plan anything. So, the long weekends were tied down in SG.

During the last 2 weeks, Seth has made quite a fair bit of improvement in his motor skills. He knows how to wave, goodbye, blow flying kisses, clap his hands, stick his tongue out when I said, "show me your teeth!" (suppose to show the teeth lar! But he keeps showing his tongue!) The fun part is he loves to clap hands. He will give you a very happy face, clapping away. Naturally, Seth is a happy baby. I would always lighten up when I see his happy face. Such a dear dear darling boy to Olive Tree and me.

Just last Thursday, Seth finally pooped, after 5 days of no passing motion. He was wailing so loudly in the early morning when we were getting ready to go to work. Olive Tree was the one that changed his diaper and shouted, "Dear, Ah Boy anus got blood and it's a lot!" I had such a shock! We could not bear to see our darling boy in suffering and we decided to bring him to see Dr. Ong at SBCC, TMC. Seth was ok after he managed to poop, with assistance. We got his legs apart, I almost wanna pull his shit out but Seth was pushing away and out came the long and big shit. Thank GOD!
We had to wait for 2 hrs plus to see Dr. Ong. He said that Seth has an anus tear and asked us to apply ointment. He gave us medication of oral lactose fluid, enema type of sticks for emergency used, insert into Seth's buttock. What a day we spent at TMC.

We prayed that Seth gonna be drinking lots of fluid and fiber-enriched food more wellingly (currently his hate list includes, brown rice, apple juice, avocado to name a few)

After Thursday, we started to wean Seth off his night feeds base on Dr. Ong's advice. It was a very trying period for 3 of us. At this age, Seth is very vocal. He'll wailed, shouted and what you can think of, to get attention. However, I stayed out of the master bedroom and have Olive Tree take care of Seth. On 2nd day and 3rd day, he slept longer, probably woke up 1 time.

However, just now, when I finished nursing him, he still wants me to comfort him! I could not do that as I don't wanna confuse him. Olive Tree came into the Playroom and asked me to nurse Seth, said he wanted milk. He just left Seth with me and said, "you nurse him to sleep first then I take over." Really got me upset with that comment. Indeed, after the nursing and unlatch, Seth cried so hysterically, Olive Tree came in. He took over. I went out. Seth was still crying. I was pissed and refuse to get out of the chair and check him up. Since it's Olive Tree's idea, and the idea didn't work, he better go and handle a very very angry baby. I have yet to talk to Olive Tree on not confusing Seth when it's nursing time.

Ok, struggling to keep my eyes open. IF there are loads of typo erros, means I am really overtired. I have only managed to sleep very early (4-5am) almost everyday. :(

Jesus Loves Me

Seth woke up from his afternoon nap. He walked out of the bedroom and I was in the living room. Started to warm up a bit, and then he drove his fire engine truck around the living room. Next moment, here's what he was singing, Jesus loves me, yes I know, For the bible tells me noe, Didder one to him bidon, Yes, Jesus, loves me..... I thought I have heard wrongly, and he was repeating the song again and again. It's amazing for me. :) The effects of singing lullaby to your kid. They do remember!!! And can sing out almost 70% of the song, though the pronunciation may not be there for some words. But he gets the tune correct. It's so cute and heartwarming to hear that from my boy.

Updates....more updates

D-day for IRAS e-Filing! I am such an 11th hour person, that I manage to e-file my tax return last night. Anyway, I am not getting any income for year 2005. So it's totally easy for me to e-file. Clicking and clicking a few buttons and the e-file is done. However, it wasn't so smooth flowing for Olive Tree. WHY? Because he has forgotten his Singpass PIN and he has to get a new one. Worse part is, he can only get it today, since I am such a last minute work person, he'll have to mad rush into getting the PIN from the appointed places for SINGPASS application. I felt bad and I apologise. What to do with a wife like that? Just have to bite the bullet lor. Since last week test posting in the office is working well, I deem I should step up my blog update. Has not been very constant in updating my blog, be it the scrapblog or this. Feeling bad about it. Seth has been growing in tremendous speed! haha! That's obvious! He starts to enter the mimic stage where he'll mimic t...

How he has grown, so is she... and my work

Have been busy for most of the weekends, shopping, spring cleaning around the house, resting, working.... Seems to have so much to do and so little time now. For I am such a last minute person, still not able to do proper time management. Sad. About Seth Toddlerhood has been challenging. He shows his temperament, he speaks his mind, learns really quick, be it bad or good habits. At a stage, he can be such a good boy a day, the next day, he wants to get what he wants and relentless till he gets them. We can pull all our hair out and he still insist to have it his way. Coaxing, scolding, all we've tried..... indeed challenging. We have to be really patience and stick to a routine for him. No matter how tired I may be, I would stick to the regular routine of getting him to brush his teeth, clean his face, morning, night, nap when we are at home. Cos if he didn't get his deserving rest, we get our deserving tantrums from Seth. As usual, he will make us melt with his awesome silly s...
