@ 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. :(

top of the M

Captured on the night when we had our very first dining experience at Top of the M . The occasion: celebrate Jon's Birthday. It's Seth very first experience, but obviously to him, it's just like any kind of dinner. As for me, I've to wait for 3 decades to be able to have such an experience! bwhaahhaha....what a funny thought. The restaurant has such a quiet ambience and at certain times, Seth was bubbling so loudly that we were so embarrassed. The waiters and waitresses were so nice to come over and play with Seth. One even offered chocolate truffles filled with mint ice cream for Seth! Too bad, my darling son don't know how to appreciate and those went into our tummies instead. (**,) You can see he enjoyed himself loads. Playing and being entertained. He was even entertained by the live strings group (or whatever you call that) with "You are my sunshine" and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Stars". That amazed him! We had a dinner set for 4 of us. Seth ...

Long Time No See/Hear

Yes, neglected the updates of Seth, what's going around at home, at work. Quite a fair bit has happened. Close friends would have known and I really thank God for faithful friends and sisters whom comforted and encouraged me during the time of trial. The episode starts off when I start falling sick frequently, worse came after March 18th, when I had a period of high for a week! That's terrible, felt aching, fever just simply to go away and not well to assume anything. Being out of office for a week proved to be disastrous I guess. Till date, I still have 322 mails not read in my mailbox! HA! The body has taken a toll, mentally, i am weak. Got to admit it, maybe the stress at work wasn't for me. I went back last week to complete outstanding tasks, (too many!!!!) and also trying to cope with so much requests from customers, traveling around, delivering documents. But I wasn't well yet, had diarrhea and vomit so nightly since last Wed till Friday. Boss, was picking on sma...

What have I been doing?

Yes, I've been really busy. How did all these started, the digi SB, the addiction, the hunger for more ideas and all this equivalent to more time spent in front of my lappy. (I shall give my lappy a name....Let's just call it MoS) How does it sound? Aiya, anyway, it's my lappy, how I wanna name it, my prerogative. BB Seth was doing CIO training for more than a week already. He is still crying in the nights, we kinda of give up letting him cry in the wee hours and I continue to give him 1-2 times feeds. SO much of crying, that his double eyelids for his left eye popped out already. Poor guy. The routine now is, he'll cry a bit till he dozed off at 9-9.30pm. So, we'll have free time to do what we need to. (chores seems to be the utmost priority) However, I've been such an addiction to the board and SB(Scrap-booking) , I didn't do much and poor Olive Tree got to do it. Anyway, I did sweeping and mopping yesterday and have contributed to the house chores. (**,)...
