(2006/01) Jan 2006 MTBs

Durianlover,
My baby can eat fried rice now already...hmmm...should seriously consider that then. Think JW is getting bored with his porridge

Wenyl,
You can try the yahoo. There's a folder in there for some of the recipes you mentioned.
 


hi mummies...i took urgent leave today. i had a worst mother's day. caleb fell off the high chair yesterday and hit his mouth onto the fallen highchair table. he was bleeding badly and we rushed him to A&E and did an x-ray if he swallowed his tooth. thank goodness, it was cleared. but he was crying so badly. today we brought him to see our PD as he was running slight fever and he told us to see a dentist as his gum was teared and suspect his tooth could still be in his gum. we brought him to a dentist, did an x-ray of his mouth and found out his tooth was pushed into his gum. it was so heart pain seeing him in so much pain. now his bleeding has stopped but his mouth swelled and eyes puffy due to the crying. dentist told us that the tooth nerve is dead and have to wait for his gum to recover first before bringing him for a surgery to remove the tooth from his gum and stitch it back. now we are praying for a quick recovery of his gum with no infection. food wise, he is still OK and drinking his milk. what a terrible day.

Oh gosh! That's terrible! What happens when tooth nerve is dead? Is it just the baby tooth? Will it affect his adult tooth? Hope Caleb recovers quickly. You take care too!
 
SSF
oh no...poor Caleb. Hope he feels better soon. Don't worry, kids heal very fast.

Aidan knocked his mouth against the floor yesterday too but we managed to stop the bleeding. Sigh, looks like our busy toddlers will get more accident prone nowadays.
 
SSF,
Oh my!! What a terrible thing to happen! I can imagine how painful it must be for poor Caleb and for you to see him in pain! Must have been a really hard fall for the tooth to get pushed into his gum. At least the tooth still can be stitched back? He'll be under local anaesthetic? Or GA? Pray for speedy recovery!
 
yeah the tooth nerve is dead and it might affect future growth of permanent teeth. the tooth that is embedded in the gum is advise to be removed for fear of infection. so now we have to monitor him closely and ensure he does not have infection or else anti botics need to be taken. no the tooth cannot be stitch back...its a baby tooth so need to extract it out and ya will have to be on anaesthetic during the extraction.
 
SSF
oh dear, sounds like a terrible accident. really sounds painful..poor caleb. hope he can recover soon and that it won't affect his permanent teeth.

how did he fall off the high chair? the chair wasn't stable?
 
SSF

Oh dear poor caleb.. what a horrible freak accident... hope he will be okie soon.. it must've broken your heart to see him suffer like that... i should think that if you remove this milk teeth it won't affect his permanent teeth unless you leave the milk teeth impacted too long and the permanent teeth got no space to grow?

RE: naps
my girl is still taking 2 naps but sometimes refuses the afternoon nap...

Oh no...it must have been such a heartpain for you! I hope caleb will be alright soon. Yes, will agree in prayers with you that no infection shall come near him!!! Hope the tooth nerve will be supernaturally restored. Give Calev my love =)
 
god's child,
Thanks for asking. Meg is fine now. She always very guai and listens to the PD. When the PD says it will last for 3 days, it will really last only 3 days. The fever subsided yesterday afternoon. Whew!

But Meg started being extremely naughty yesterday. It's like she has grown...She starts saying 'throw!' then she'll throw watever she's holding on the floor. Then sometimes she will call us 'see see' and start jumping up and down.

Yesterday, my younger nephew was playing with SIL's phone when Meg when close to him and he accidentally switched it off. He tot spoil, so he showed SIL and said Meg did it. He pointed at Meg and Meg just stared at him. Suddenly, she pushed him on his chest. Hahaha, this one really cannot bully. He also tried to sit on her feeding chair and she pulled him by his hair. Oops...but somehow, she only does this to him and not to my older nephew.
 
Hi SSF,

Hopes Caleb get well soon. Yes i agree it must have been very tramatised for you. DO take Care!

Hi Tracy,

Ha ha. Your megan and mine can fight. Both chilli padi.

SSF
Oh dear, what a terrible accident. It must be really difficult for you and caleb. But I'm sure caleb will get well soon...*hugzzz*

chickenlittle
Thanks for the compliments

Now I also quite worried cuz Ariene likes to stand on the high chair. Sat, she almost fell off the high chair too but luckily my dad was beside her and pushed her back into the chair before she fell if not, I cant imagine wad will happen. The other thing I find scary now is the standing fan. Now that she's tall enough to reach the switches of the fan, she'll turn the fan on herself n she'll want to poke her fingers into the fan! So, gotta unplug the fans now.

God's child , re: window grilles
what kind of window grilles did the contractor quote u? Is it wrought iron grilles? I went to see my contractor for my home and was quoted $700 for each room cuz my balconies and rooms quite long. So, in total for 2 balconies and 1 room, its about $2100.
 
SSF.
Oh no, I will be very heartpain too. Take good care of him then. Hope he get well soon.

I also worry as Jamie loves to stand on high chair too. There was twice when she is standing (normally I will use one hand to hold her), someone trip over the leg of the ikea high chair (dunno which designer..design wide legs high chair). Jamie almost fall from it. luckily I hold onto her.

Mamapanda,
Get those net cover to prevent her from putting finger into fan. I use that at home.
 
MamaPanda
Actually there are those nets to cover the "grilles" of the fan and to prevent them from poking their little fingers in and yet does not compromise on the fan's performance. Can get them from those market stores that sells household items. For me, I'm sourcing for ceiling fans instead coz I'll need a lot of fans in my house which I rather use ceiling fans in this case.

High Chair
Daren has been trying this stunt which really scared me in a sense that he is experimenting cause and effect to the extreme! He likes to lean forward and throw his body weight backwards against the backrest of his high chair, causing the high-chair to rock backwards and the high-chair will move backwards inch by inch! He'll do it again and again and smile with glee! Now we make sure he's out of the high chair once he's done with his meals or snack time.

Tracy
Not only is Meg a cool princessy toddler, she's a chilli padi too! Cannot play play! She's really mature for her age! Totally impressed!

Saying Hello
I digged out a really old Nokia mobile phone, the 3350 (something like that) series which resembles our now cordless phone and let Daren hold it as though it is his. We asked him to say "Hello", he held the phone to his ears (or rather, his neck) and suddenly with a slightly deeper voice went "Awwoo"....we all burst out laughing during dinner time. Hahaha.
 
rena
U can come visit on one of the fridays and we'll cook together for Ariene n Elijah. I'll leave office earlier at 4.30pm and will be home by 5pm which is just nice to cook dinner for the little ones.

Actually, it really quite simple to cook. All it takes is alittle imagination, Lurpack unsalted butter, finely chopped garlic and ur main course ingredients. My recipes are also from my R&D and refined by experimentation
happy.gif
Oh yes, buy a small/mini saucer with cover (I got mine from giant) specifically for cooking baby food cuz our normal sized pots, saucers n pans are too big and ur food will prolly end up being burnt if u're not fast enough. In fact, some of the baby recipes can also be used for our food, with the addition of salt n spices. I just don't add those into the baby food only.
 
mamachan
I dug out my hb's old 8250 for Ariene to play with but she doesn't want it cuz it has no battries
sad.gif
She likes to watch the video i took of her in my hp so much that she can mime the video and laugh at herself and even sing back the same tune she sang in the video.

At my dad's place, Ariene likes to play with the aircon remote and switch the aircon on/off cuz it makes a beep sound everytime she presses it and even spoilt my dad's aircon. My dad had to pay $90+ repairing the aircon so on sat, he kept the remote in the beside drawer to hide it from Ariene. We don't know now she knew, she opened the drawer and took the remote out to play herself so I took away the battries of the remote and passed it back to her. She came to me and tried to open my fingers for the battries but when she got the idea that I'm not giving her the battries, she gave the remote to my dad and went for another remote with battires. Faint.
 
Mamachan,
I have got a ceiling fan in my living room that has got light also. U might want to take a look when u come my house for the playgroup on this sat. Will check with hb how much we bought it for.

SSF
Oh poor Caleb, hope he's gum heal soon. Mel also likes to climb in and out of her high chair, better ask my mom to watch her closely.

Tracy,
Haha, Megan really cannot bully. Maybe cos the older cousin doesn't bully her?
 
Sigh! Ethan seems to have caught the flu/cough bug from a boy in church on sun. I was awaken by his coughs earlier. Gonna bring him see doc later today.

SSF,
Speedy recovery to Caleb! Must be very painful. **Sayang sayang**. E also likes to stand on high chair.

Tracy,
At least u know Megan will know how to defend herself next time when someone bully her in school. My E picks up bad habits from his cousin too. Now he will push or shout at pple if that person tries to take away something tat he is eyeing. Something which I believe he learnt from his cousin.
 
SSF,
you must be very heartache..Is Caleb getting better today?

Tracy,
Megan is so cute that she is able to defend for herself..
 
mamachan

i just converted my fans to ceiling fans. Bought an amasco 56" (w remote control, 4 lights) and 2 fanco 52" fans (3 lights)for $800 at IMM Faxico. The amasco fan works well, maybe coz it's acrylic. The other 2 wooden fans not so good and very noisy.
 
mamapanda

Hi mummies
Me just came back from Perth last week. Then, my dad's leg prob recurred and had to rush him to hosp. Then, hv been so busy and tired (coz the Perth trip was qt packed, plus I was busy busy at work when I came back). Only today that I feel that my life is back to normal and I'm so happy, coz my Dad is discharging today. The Perth trip was wonderful. We had a great time with Gerald and I really miss him nowadays. Didn't have time to read all the archives, so do PM or sms me if I missed out on anything.

Rachel
Sorry for the delay. Emailed you Ger's pic last nite. Hope it's ok.

SSF
Poor Caleb. It sounds so scary. I must watch Ger more carefully now. He fell off the highchair once. Luckily, he was ok (hb was saying that the Angels might hv catched him). Hope Caleb recovers soon.
 
Rena

ai yah, he went to take a styrofoam pc to put at the wall, coz he said the wall slanted, the gate cannot hold very well lor. Then he didn't adjust the gate (coz mine is pressure gate) and pop, the wooder bar broke.

CL

mashy
