hi all
goody morning! the weather is so cozy to snuggle in bed....

woo.. so much talk about discipline and 1st bdays ah?

aiyoo, my boy is the terrorist at home now! haa he's behaving ultra rebellious and defying at times. and now he's the loud hailer, screaming at the top of his lungs for no rhyme or reasons. one word.. he's driving us crazy! sometimes can't help it but have to smack him to teach him a lesson. of coz feel heart pain after that, but he have to learn somewhere, before he turn into a REAL terror. Question: Only boys behave like that? or ???

ohh.. for the bday party, we have decided on the caterer, the venue, the theme and the other party stuffs. Still looking around for the cake tho'... ... I tried to call up Hot Fuschia, her orders are full till July!gosh! these pple are really KS mann hahaha... oops! no offence ah. =) any other good reccs? share share leh hehe...

yesterday brought trishelle to see PD again, coz her diarrhoea still quite persistent. PD said that she recovered from her stomach flu but now she kenna temporary lactose intolerance! cannot drink breast milk for at least 48hrs, so now she's drinking soy formula. luckily she likes it. but alas, last nite her last poo, we found some blood in her stools and i wanted to send her to A&E and my hb asked me to call PD first. PD said that she looks fine, very alert and active in the afternoon so shouldnt be any big issues. ask me today to collect her stools to bring to clinic to do culture test.

sporty/powerpuffs, i will be holding trishelle's 1yr old birthday party at my dad's condo function room. date will be either 14th or 15th Jun. cant book now coz earliest can book is 1 mth in advance. hmm, stuff done so far : ordered the deco items for the party (will be strawberry shortcake theme) and her party dress. caterer also decided le but havent book yet (since still 2 mths away).

sporty, which photographer did u engage? and how much?

 

[pinkzebra]

sweet,
oh dear... After taking soy milk, the stools will be harder, so I guess the blood streaks could due to her exerting too much strength to poo. Be sure to clean and slap lots of diaper cream on her bum. Hope everything is fine for her and that she really gets well soon!

hey, me too can only book the function room 1 mth in advance, gonna bring fwd the party to 1st June instead. Since he loves the elephant, we gonna have a Safari Animal theme for him, hee.

 

[wannabmummy]

Sweet,
oh dear! hope Trishelle get well soon.. heartache to see blood leh..

 

[cottoncandy]

pinkzee, thanks! the bloody stool came out while she was still drinking her 1st bottle of the soy milk leh, dun think it's so instant. previously we found 1 strain of blood in her poo, that's why yesterday i brought her to see PD.. PD said that it's no cause for alarm but last nite was quite alot! so that freaked me out. today so far, she hasnt poo-ed yet and i hope it stays this way

[ros_11]

Hi ladies,

so much postings....and still reading...

Ling, I'm same age as u too n I live in Punggol...i thought your better service is something else...hahaha..there is another baby here who is born in 1 jun also....baby name is Tricia n mummy -vendy but guess she not been feeling well so dod not post recently...

pooh, glad tat your bb is ok n looking forward to welcoming your new boy

that name is very unique leh...

sporty, me also ordering cake from pine garden as their cakes really nice

...wat flavour will u be getting?

caitlyn, egg yolk goes very well wif porridge....amadeus loves egg yolk

the egg must be hardboiled then remove the egg white...

caitlyn/sporty, I'm also the bad person at home lor n daddy is the gd guy...but but amadeus still prefers me to him...hee hee....

elaine, all the shops at concourse move out leh..

 

[wittlewabbit]

oh dear sweet, hope trishelle recovers soon. dun worry toooo much, will pray for her .

as long as active, dun sweat the small stuff.

 

[sherryslling]

envy those of you who have already settled the bday party details..so happening..

Me thinking of making the party simple and private.. afterall, sam wouldnt know much..

 

[wittlewabbit]

ros, i decided to scrape the pinata, gymboree gives out party gifts, so enough la, plus the equipment also enough to occupy everyone.

 

[fattybombombom]

POoh: yup. i will be baking. for helium gas tank rental. for 50 pcs ballon it is 50 bucks plus 200 deposit.

 

[sherryslling]

Hiro, May I know if there is any design on the ballons?

 

[fattybombombom]

Ling: I am not getting the ballons from the same place where i get the tanks from.... Apprently the helium tank place say they can print the kid's name on the ballons think that one seperate cost leh....

 

[rinachew]

lin, yes.. we got this vcd from a temple.. its in chinese with like chinese poems and teaches values...

hiroshi-ma, then u bought the ballons from whr?? can share?

 

[sherryslling]

quite cool to be able to print name or personal message on balloons..

We have decided to make it cosy so will be celebrating at home. Initially plan to hold it at srcc function rm and they quote me $19.50++ per pax include finger food.. but the menu sucks leh.. not worth paying.. I rather pay for quality food.. Since now saved some cost on venue, we can spend it on other things..

Photographer.. will be my hubby also.. besides his banking job, his hobby and part time 'job' is photography.. Half of my en-suite is now filled with his 2 big dry cabinets and now he even want to set up a studio at home.. gosh..

 

[sherryslling]

ros, aiyoh.. that type of service that you are thinking abt** is not a service, it an obligation..hee..

 

[esterlah]

Pooh
Lansinoh 20435 Breastmilk Storage Bags, 25-Count Boxes (Pack of 4) = 100 milk bags, is it?

what is 20435? i know the ons is 25 bags/box I still have some boxes. Cos i only use when i go shopping - which is seldom withou Vicky.

 

[fattybombombom]

Ling: HOme studio are GREAT for shooting..... I would love to have one someday... BUT up till date.... SPACE does not allow it!! kekekekeke.... with 2 big dry box... I am sure your hubby's take photography more than JUST a HOBBY..... *smiles*

rina: i intend to get them from OTC. NOT decided yet.....
