Touristy Us!!

The 2nd day of Lily's visit, we brought her to the Bird Park as well and here's Ray posing with the flamingos.


And here we are at the famous Merlion....the part fish tail part lion head that tells the mystical story of Singapore.


It is very fun, rediscovering Singapore again with Lily and Ray. And we realised there are alot of stuff that we actually didnt quite know afterall. I guess we are never too old or too smart to learn new things everyday....

We going to the ZOO ZOO ZOO

"Daddy taking us to the zoo tomorrow" Yippee!! It is our first family outing to the zoo as we have a visitor in town and we took this opportunity to get out and have some fun under the sun.


And here is our visitor -Aunty Lily who came all the way from Korea to visit US!! and mostly to see Ray. We knew aunty Lily since our Abu Dhabi days and it has been almost two years since our last meet up in Japan and it was really nice to see her again.



Sadly....Ray's energy were deflated as he only managed to see 10mins of our famous zoo and soon he was in dreamland....dreaming of elephants, lions....zebras too!!

Road To Recovery

Ray has finally recovered from his bronchitis or rather we think as the wheezing is finally gone. So we decided to go out to the mall to have a small celebration and we decided to go Great World Shopping Mall as the human traffic are usually lower and we are not in the mood to brave the traffic.


Here's us....wasting no time posing in the nursing room. I must say this is one of the best nursing room we have seen so far...very frenchie!! And as usual, Ray is as always all smiley!!

Cannot sing praises enough of this nursing room and everytime i entered it, i feel like some rich tai tai in a glamour child's room. POSH NOSH!!

Ray's First Hospital Stay

Ray was coughing since 13rd Oct and we took him to a pedia on 15th Oct when we realised there was wheezing sound from him. Doc said its most probably asthmatic so we were given inhaler and medicine and sent home.

Ray did get better after the 3rd day but we have to stop the inhaler on 5th day and that was Friday when everything went wrong. He was breathless when we picked him up from my mom's place but he was still smiling but just less active. Thats when we decided to send him down to KK hospital to ensure that he is fine.

When we reached the A & E, the staff were fast to get Ray to be checked by the doctor. And we were told straight away that Ray will have to stay for observation. My tears almost roll and i felt so shitty becos as his mom, i failed to protect him and landed him in hospital. And now he is suffering from bronchiolitis.


Here's Ray getting a puff from the inhaler that is supposed to open his airway. We tried the method for almost 3 days before we decided that it wasnt working and they started him on another method which is combining adrenalin and oxygen to let Ray inhale.


He is no longer suffering from shortness of breathe but the wheezing is still there so they decided to bring in the lung specialist to take a look at Ray. Each extra day of staying in the hospital might only expose Ray to more new virus, there was even a day when we were so determined to bring Ray back home to nurse when he threw up just after we changed him out of his patient's clothes. We took it as a sign the staying might be a better idea after all.

The wheezing is still there but the specialist said it could be post bronchio symptom that could persist for weeks and we were given the green light to go home on 23rd Oct. And we stayed there from 18th Oct to 23rd Oct, almost a week. Well, for now the review will be in 1 month's time so meanwhile we will have to monitor him closely.

Pa Pa Mui's Birthday

This year, pa pa mui has one more extra person in his heart to share his birthday celebration ie Ray. I know hospital is not exactly THE place to celebrate a birthday but there is no way that we will do w/o a cake for pa pa mui after all this is the first time Ray is celebrating with him.

We were supposed to follow up with a post birthday celebration in Hong Kong but given the situation now, i have got the trip cancelled. There is no point rushing Ray to recovery if we are not sure what works or doesnt works for him.

Walk The Walk

Ray is almost 6 month now and his legs are really strong so we decided perhaps it is high time that we introduce him to another new toy aka The Walker.

Of cos, we have to bring Ray to personally test drive the walker after all he will be the driver behind the wheel.


Here's Ray trying out one of the walker. I think we tried about 3 models before we decided on this one and we are so happy that he is having great fun. Just look at his face and it says all...



He kept chewing on the toys and upon investigation, we realised there were 2 little bit of white sprouting out from his gum. YES!! Ray is officially teething now.

Reunion

Remember in one of my blog i mentioned abt my other 2 preggie galfrds? Well, we have all delivered and enjoying the fruit of our success...kekkee.

First it was me to pop, then Mio and the last one was Evon.


First from right is Evon's sister in law with her own baby, then its Mio with Ray, then its me with the 'Manyue' baby Devon (evon's baby) and then Evon with Narisa (mio's baby) and lastly its Lynn with her own Jayden.

It is amazing how we have all come a long way to witness this happy occasion and yes, there has been plans to have our 2nd baby around the same time so that we can hang out during our maternity leave. All it takes is planning....
