When Xixi was sick 2 weeks ago, I did promise her to bring her go swimming and eating at Mc D after she fully recovered. I promised her as to cheer her up, because during her sick, she only allowed to stay at home most time and she got poor appetite. I didn’t forget my promise and didn’t want to disappoint her, so I and hubby decided to bring her to the pool again on last Saturday (27-June), since weather these few days were not as hot as last few weeks.

So on the night before our outing, I told Xixi we will have our breakfast next day at Mc Donald, and we will go swimming after that. She was so excited and kept telling me “游泳,游泳”, “Mc...Nald, Mc..Nald” until her fall sleep... Haha! Then the next day early morning she woke up at 6.50am and kept pestering us to bring her go “游泳,游泳”(swimming), “Papa, Mama… 起来!!起来” (wake up, wake up). (OMG… so early!! It's considered early as we normally woke up quite late on weekends morning.) No choice, we woke up 7am++ gave her bottle of milk, get ready every thing then depart from home.

I’m glad to see her happily eating her favorite hash brown and scrambled egg at Mc D again. When we at the pool, she enjoyed herself very much and I can see she no longer scared of water like last time. You know, she really loves swimming as much as I do! And the happiest thing was hubby agreed to bring us go swimming again this coming weekend. Hooray!

Trying to pose for the camera AGAIN. Haha...

Xixi is able to count from 1 to 10 since few weeks ago. I was trying to record her video when she is counting, but was failed several times… She will intentionally speak in low voice or count in wrong sequence or sometimes she ran away straight when she sees me recording. T_T But I never give up though, haha… Lucky me… She was very co-operative just now!

One, Two, Three...... In English
video

一,二,三。。。In Mandarin
video

But if you notice that she actually skipped number “8” in both videos? In Mandarin or English, she just likes to jump from number 7 to number 9 directly. Although I told her likes hundred times already 7 follow by 8 then only 9, but she just like to speak it in her own sequence.. I also don't know why?!





When the first time Xixi shows me this stunt I was totally shocked…She looks so funny that really makes me laugh non-stop! Then each time when she “playing” with her tongue I will keep asking her to repeat the same stunt again and again… Haha ;p Because for me, I couldn’t do this for sure. So I didn’t know where on earth she learned this from?! However, hubby told me Xixi was inherited his gene because actually he can also flip his tongue like Xixi did in the picture, which I never really realize that before. *Slap forehead*

I’ve been using my current Asus notebook for 2 years already. I was lucky because so far I seldom encounter problem using it for net surfing, upload or download files from the World Wide Web, transfer file from my digital camera or mobile phone to my D drive. But this 2 years old notebook seems starts giving me problem recently. It used to hang somewhere when I attempt to access internet and it’s speed has obviously became slower, sometimes it will takes her forever to load certain webpage and worse I got to reboot it due to system not responding few times a day. That is why I only use hubby’s laptop to serf net nowadays and you will seldom see me online MSN during day time now.

I’m not a computer expert but I guess my notebook was overload with tons of picture, videos and files that might cause the computer speed slower. I certainly know that it’s time to get an external hard drive now before the computer is totally died. Because seriously I can’t bear losing any memorable photos or video of my precious daughter! So happened I browse through this online Netbook Accessories retailer store just now, where I can find a good external drive and also ASUS EEE Accessories for my laptop.

I have received quite many messages from my blogger friends these few days who asking about Xixi’s condition. Thanks all for your messages either through leaving a comment in my blog, through email or MSN. I’m sincerely appreciating all your kindness. Xixi is really blessed to have all your get well wishes, really thanks for all your prayer. Thanks God! I’m glad that Xixi is recovering real well, she has stopped puking since Monday after another visits to the Paed on Sunday afternoon. She had started taking porridge twice a day again since Monday too, so far so good… I could see she slowly gained back her appetite already. She started behave active again these few days, jumping on the bed, running around the house, cuddling with me and laugh out happily… I’m so happy to see her back to her normal self again!!

Look, she was able to play Peekaboo with me from the bedroom downstair!


And, stacking her block in the living hall...



By the way, just to show you the medicines that Xixi been taken when she was not well. I was amazed this little girl doesn’t afraid to take medicine at all! Instead she likes the taste of the medicine syrup very much! You know why she loves to eat medicine? Because all these syrups taste sweet some more got orange/lime/strawberry flavor! And it comes with fancy colors i.e orange/green/yellow/white/pink. Since she is about 80% recovered now, so she is only taking 2 syrups that helping her to clear phlegm. But I will stop her from taking all these medicine start tomorrow. I think it's not so good too depending on medicine all times right?

My poor girl has been sick for 4 days already… Started with mild fever and puked on Wednesday (10-June) after her midnight feeding. Been visited her pediatrician twice, taken all kinds of medicine but she still cough badly and puke every night after her midnight milk. Although we’re trying not to give her milk on midnight (to prevent puking again) but she was crying so pitiful asking for it, and I could see how hungry she was (she didn’t really eat solids these few days due to poor appetite). At night we can hear her phlegm sound in her breath and guessed the phlegm is the root cause that makes her chokes and hence cough and puke out everything.

This morning about 5am, Xixi puked again after her morning milk and her condition doesn’t seem to be better so we bring her to see doctor again. Since the pediatrician clinic was closed today, we bring her to another policlinic to consult Dr Singh which used to be our family doctor. He suggested lets Xixi try on nebulizer. Xixi sobbed so pitifully in my arms when knowing she is going to be inhaled, but luckily she was okay after crying for a while. She even says “thank you” and “bye-bye” to the doctor after the treatment done.


This is the first time Xixi sick for so many days, this is also the first time she cough so badly until got to inhaled from Nebulizer. It's really hard pain seeing her seffuering... She obviously has become thinner now as she only taken milks for the pass 3 days, ya… she rejects all kind of solids. T_T. Even if she eats she will just puke everything out, which really makes me worry! But I’m thankful because although she was not feeling well but she doesn’t behave cranky at all, she still very playful and still my sweetie Xixi. By the way, I think I’m very very blessed to have a caring husband by my side all times. Hubby was just recovering from sick as well but he trying his best to look after Xixi whenever possible if I’m busy with other household chores. To my dear, I’m sorry if I never take good care of you and been throw tantrum to you these few days…

I'm praying hard that both my beloved husband and daughter get well real soon.... I'm keeping my finger crossed...

Hubby was complaint about his backache yesterday night. He asked me to do some massage for him. So happen that my little Ms Busybody Helpful overheard our conversation and she start to massage very quickly for his daddy on my behalf. Haha…

However, whenever she sees the camera focus on her, she will start showing her signature smile again. *Pengsan*. You will see how professional she was in the video, use all her strength to make her daddy feel more comfortable. Haha then peeps on daddy’s reaction some more.

Anyway, this massage session can only keep her occupied for a while. She back to her normal vain by wearing the hat when massaging daddy for the second time, have you ever see a massage therapist wearing hat and jumping on the sofa like monkey before? Though it's weird but I and hubby were laugh like crazy after repeating the video for N times. Hahaha...
