(2007/11) November MTBs

k@ye dun feel bad la, we can't protect them from the many viruses. Jus hope claire gets betta.

BTW mummies accordin to my PD its influenza season so do take care of ur lil ones & urself! Drink more water and eat more fruits.
 


k@ye, Can I confirm wif u the no of babies for the x'mas bash. So u'll be the CFO for the event rt?
happy.gif
 
jay, I am lazy mummy, i use heinz muesli & oats..very "no-frills". In school, they feed her cereal with egg yolk & bread.

poochi, can they eat mac's pancake yet?

k@ye, last week ash also red eye, think her capillaries burst. I also dunno what causes it.

k@ye, I finally got a call from Eatzi. They offered to compensate a turkey, ham or log cake. U tried before? I cant decide to go for turkey or ham.

Gemini, I have backache and leg pain after the class, lasted till Monday. Can feel the strain yesterday at Little Gym so my hubby took over
happy.gif
Do you like the class? I quite like it except cannot make up so quite painful if miss a class leh.
 
k@ye: don't be bad. Isaac also been sick recently. Fever and vomitting. I mean he has since recovered but he has not been sleeping well since last sat and until now. I am also not sure whether sick again or teething....

Is claire taken care by nanny or infant care. Maybe you want to wash all her toys and etc to ensure they are virus free. If u see other kids not sure, carry Claire far far away.
happy.gif


Poochi: Thank you.
happy.gif
Ya although can't protect our kiddo but kind of helpless when they are not well. Moreover at this age still can't talk don't where not well.
 
Sigh, how can i dun feel bad abt Claire? She looked so happy to see me last night and refused to be out of my sight... Once i put her down on the bed, she will cry coz she wants to be carried by me!

Poochi, me not CFO lah... Hahaha... Just a wannabe event organiser in the making (might consider doing this if i decided to resign from my current job!)

Langlao, capillaries burst ah? My Mum just called me and said it could be eye infection coz her right eye also starting to get red!

I never tried Eatzi's turkey or ham leh.. IMO, think ham will be better coz at least can eat with bread. Turkey's meat very rough one.
 
langlao3 / poochi: I have feed Isaac egg yet, as I am afraid of allergy. I mean there is no known allergy that I know of in our family. How do you know yr bb can eat egg?

langlao3: Could it be because yr bb accidentally pop his own eyes? Isaac got blood cot in his eye that day and I brought him to PD and PD said got abrasions and could be due to bb poking own eyes accidentally wor.

rachel, k@ye, ash eye was red and on closer look, only the capillaries very red. Actually I think she rub it cos she always rub her left eye. She does that when she's sleepy.

rachel, u start with egg yolk first, give a bit initially &amp; observe if any allegic reaction. Personally I never give her egg before, last time the nanny gave and then the infant care. I gave her cake &amp; she's okay
happy.gif
 
re:egg
yup start wif the yolk first. We started abit of the white after she was 10mths cos nurse told us 15mth MMR jab contains egg so we should try giving egg to see if allergic anot.

pancakes. I also gave ger Mac's pancake plain.
If u hardworking can always make ur own ha ha
happy.gif
 
i've fed my boy with Mac pancakes too, the chicken foldover meat and the fold, unsalted fries (just abit), muffins, cakes, jellies (agar agar), steamed eggs with mincemeat (with just a dash of soy sauce for taste) and many other junks..haha.

But he has this bad habit of not chewing his food. Porridge he will juz swallow, if he finds something lumpy in it, he will pwee out. Otherwise, he will suck or toss them around the mouth till nua nua then swallow or at times he will juz pwee out when they became tasteless.Dunno how to make him learn to use his 8 teeth and chew..sigh.
 
poissons:: Travis also tends to swallow more than chew, so now we try to make his porridge thicker and give him more chunky fruits. Maybe you can try that?

Kaye:: i'm sorry, I won't be able to make it liaos, sigh, hubby got to take over colleague for a meeting, so have to go overseas.!! sian!!! So you all count us out okies? unless miracle happens he managed to push to someone haha, but aiya, pushing game never ends.

Naps:
Travis naps 2x a day. I will make him zzz at 10am and 2pm. He wakes up at around 715am, sleeps around 9pm. the Morning nap usually about 1 to 1.5hrs and noon time is 2 to 2.5hrs.

Food:
travis has had egg yolk, egg white, tofu, cheese and many others. hahah! PD says yogurt is not very good ley, so i stopped giving him. But he says cheese is GOOD, so I've been giving him small cubes of those cheese almost everyday.
 
kaye,
good idea, i will try with the rusk biscuits tmr. Thanks!

Cindy,
tried making his porridge thicker liao, but he will also pwee out..same goes to fruits...unless it's strawberry or kiwi which are soft.
 
hahaa poissons:: garreth is lazy lah!! but don't worry too much, when it's time it's time. we also wanted to give travis rice but he will pwee out and act like he's CHOKING!!
 
K@ye:aiyoooo poor claire!!!!!take care of her oki.......

ueno:wow Leroy so fast can drink milk!!!!great!

Food:hayley's been having cheese,yogurt and her dose of probatics daily...so far oki
happy.gif
....

Nap:hayley still hv her 2 naps daily but not long
sad.gif
.......very active so think she rather wake up and play.....
 
pig07:i usually put it into her porridge /pasta/potatoes....or just feed her in small pieces.

Used to buy japanese baby cheese but now i give the "laughing cow" cubes or cheddar
 
S@L,
thanks for yr review on eCreative catering..mayb i'll still go ahead with it and update all of you on how it is.

jay,
my gal wakes at 7-ish am and sleeps about 930pm-10pm. at least yrs wakes up a lil later. Eliza's my alarm clock every morning. she seem to can't sleep past 8am...esp when daddy wakes up in the morn abt 6ish and she wakes up too. i'm longing for a looong morning snooze for a long time. heee..

we tried meesua cooked in ikanbilis stock &amp; mashed potato but 95% it's porridge cooked in slow cooker. tried pasta but i think i don't cook it tasty enough for her to be 'on' about it.

pig07,
i juz gave her any cheese i have...from the sliced one to those in burgers (cos cannot eat the meat mah..so oily!). but it's not a lot, just snack snack.
 
Happy Birthday Isaac &amp; Aaron!

dreamer,
L wakes up at 7am.

jay,
I stopped using the slow cooker to cook porridge when he was ard 11mths but now L doesnt like porridge any more. i buy organic baby oats n museli, u can get them from the supermarkets. L has been eating toasted bread since 9mths old, now he takes it with cheese/unsalted butter/jam(im using St Dalfour, no added sugar). Last sat, i prepared some scrambled eggs for him with crackers n cheese, he loves it!

pig,
i use Laughing cow cream cheese spread/cheese cubes,cheddar cheese slice.
 
Kaye,
haahaa i found the pic that is photshop by yr hubb. i didnt notice this pic cos i was not happy with my fringe. my whole fringe was in my eyes..heehee.

And YES, i have to agree that the function room makes all the photos BLUE... haahaa alot of editing man.

Catusnah,
Ops abt the SLR camera..i think his fren nt used to it lah. Hopefully the rest of the pics are ok. pardon me but i cant help to add that i also tried my fren's SLR, so sharp wor..not blur. Anyways, some pple just not talented heehee.

As for MAC pancakes, i give before. i also make those instant pancakes at home to give.
 
ueno,
how is leroy's jab? I am still monitoring if i should bring Ashlyn for jab on friday. She had a mild case of diahorea since Sunday early morning which she woke up at 2am, 3am and 5am. But the diahorrea has stopped since Sunday nite. If all goes well, I will bring her on Friday.
 
grace:eek:ic.....hayley will be going to hkg again so.......better wait till eveything's settled.....

wat jab is that will cause diahorrea????
 
langlao

me too aching all over. esp my legs... Think you really need 2 person so can do rotation.

yes, me too I like the class too, was thinking of signing her up. Got to check with hubby when he's back this week.
 
Thanks ueno.

Brought Aaron to the Jacob Ballas Garden yest, he had a great time getting himself all wet..hehe

Will post some pics later when I have some time
happy.gif
 
Weishy, I actually intend to bring Jav tmr morning, late morning. I got a fren to join me. But I'm bringing J to the PD later as he seems to have flu. Keeps sneezing and when he rubs his nosey, his mucus comes out. and a little cough. So, i'm crossing my fingers abt tmr. Told my fren abt it too..

Food: Ueno: so, u serve L rice now?
J loves all types of food, gluttony... but cos of his stomach flu, he has to take porridge 1st.

Mac pancakes: I never had the guts to try feeding him mac... but after reading the posts, I've decided to bring him to mac this sat with hubby and feed him the pancakes.
 
seems like more mummies r getting adventurous in our little ones' food repertoire.

So far i also gave the pre-mix pancake, char siew pau (mainly skin of course) and laughing cow cheese with breadstick, all sorts of bread..

Skye,
i gave organic oats previously but ZY doesnt like it plain, when i bought Heinz organic muesli n oat w apple, she likes it cos taste sweeter mah. So wat i did is to mix some oats into the Heinz one so as not to waste mah. u may wanna try it.

ueno,
the rice is really the very dry type that u r giving L? My porridge version also starts to become drier n drier so as to let ZY transit to rice eventually. But i still use slow cooker so i dun need to watch over the fire.

Re : nap
I think its high time some r adjusting to 1 nap, i also realise if ZY sleeps 1 times of 3-4 hours in total, she tends to sleep at 10+, now trying to get her to sleep by 9pm..

gillian,lazykat,
L doesnt like rice or porridge now. He is into yellow noodles n mee sua. I will cook it with the stock of the week with meat or fish n veg.

zzz,
L loves Jacob Ballas garden too, we were there last Sat n he really enjoyed himself, getting all wet!
 
k@ye,
hope claire is feeling better liao.
and seems like more babies coming down with one sickness or another...

chloe seems to be having slight fever daily now - esp when she's back from the nanny's and we took over, can feel her body temp a bit high. so far we have not administered any medication as she's still quite active. i hope it's due to her teething... but i have not seen anything yet though the nanny said she can 'feel' 4! wah piangz....

re: baby's food
ya, i thk we are all trying to be more adventurous since our babies are more interested in OUR food as well. :D
like lazykat, i also gave my ger the skin of char siew pau. have yet to try macs pancakes/waffles but we did let her have a tiny bite of BK's breakfast muffins and she loves it.
happy.gif


i guess they are venturing into more tastier food now - either sweet or savoury... much better than their usual cereal/oatmeal/porridge, rite? must be quite jelak oredi lor
happy.gif
 
Hi ladies, Claire is better but still got the running nose. She screamed whenever we tried to suck the muscus from her nose!

Talking abt baby food, i also feed Claire nonsense but i will steer clear of those super tasty ones... My Mum said this if we let her drink all these soup, i think we hv to cook her porridge with dried scallop!
 
Mummies - Can you please advise where to get the alphabet pasta? I tried Cold Storage, Market Place, Giant and they dont sell.....

Baby's food - i think ash is tired of his fish, chicken, pork with carrot / brocoli porridge, every lunch and dinner is a challenge... so we are now trying soup + rice, macrconi soup and he seems OK.... I have given him plain wholemeal bread, pancakes, tofu. The next thing i want to let him try is cheese, museli and eggs
happy.gif
 
K@ye - My 2 cents worth of thought : I think to cater for 25pax is good for the birthday/xmas bash in case some mummies cant turn up on that day. And also its gonna be 3pm onwards so we may not be eating that much....? There were so much food left the last time at my place, all mummies were busy talking and also paiseh to eat i guess....heeheehee....
 
Sharron, not 2 cents lah... Every opinion is welcome!
happy.gif


The min no to order is 30, so i can't order 25 unless u know any caterer that is ok with 25 persons..... This round hor, must tell all the Mummies not to be paiseh to eat the food! Heheh!
 
k@ye, months ago my mom already tell me to put dried scallops to ook porride. I tried once only. I'll try in one or two to make chicken stock for her porridge. Now with her coughing the chicken stock still in the freezer
sad.gif


sharron, I bought the alphabet pasta from NTUC at AMK hub.
 
gillian, how's Jav feeling. I thought Little Gym's class on Thurs is at 3pm? If you are going let me know I might go cos I realise 29 Nov I prob cant attend as will be at k@ye's.
 
Food:Ethan has organic oatmeal for breakfast and either brown rice porridge with fish/pork/chicken + 2 vege (bean/pumpkin/carrot/spinach) or organic Macaroni with chicken + carrots.

Thinking of starting him on pasta this week. Bought organic tomato paste, pasta &amp; weight-watchers beef for him. Lets hope he likes it! =)

Baked my first cake today - a pound cake. =) Baking now, hope it turns out ok. Not too bad for a day when I'm down with the flu.

Bread: What bread do you mummies feed your little ones? Normal white bread? Oh, and what crackers do you use? tablewater?
 
I bought the alphabet pasta from Carrefour's organic section. Was sold out and I heard new stock is coming in 1 month's time. Can try now.
 
i feed kaira whole wheat bread or bread with more grains. i don't toast it, juz cut cheese and put on top or spread the baby fruit jar (as jam since i have a few bottles which i have yet to use) on it as jam.

i also give her rice cakes as snacks too.
 
dreamer, good idea on the fruit gel, I'll try it! I stop making stock now, just throw in a pc of pork loin to cook the porridge.

michviv, i give wholemeal/softmeal bread, the infant care give white bread &amp; my aunty gave her raisin bread. Now when I go supermarket, I'll avoid bring her to the bread section cos the will recognise the wrapper and insist on eating the bread! I give her Pigeon cracker.
 
dreamer,

i usually put in half dried scallop and a pc of pork to cook my ger's porridge.

if i cook fish porridge, usually just cook plain ones till almost done, then i put in the fish. later on just mash it with the porridge and add in the steamed pureed vege (usually carrots or brocolli or both).

if i lazy, just use hard boiled egg yolk, mashed it and mix with porridge, then add half a scoop of bovril to add taste
happy.gif


i lazy mommy bah... ahahaha...
 
Wah! So many ideas abt food! I need to go thru again! haha! Thks a million for all yr sharings! Will post qns again after I hv digested all e info. thks thks!
 
michviv/ueno,

what kind of oats do you give to baby??
i wanna give oats oso but dunno what kind of oats and where can i get it from??
can we give quacker oats or ???
and how to prepare??

thanks!
 
I bought this brand of oatmeal called Health Times Oatmeal cereal for baby. You can add fruits in for additional taste or else just mix with formula milk and its ready to serve. =)

Thanks for the advice on bread...think I will try it out next week.
