her camera

been wanting to post her best ever creation: camera.

Sc bought him self a new dslr in Jan '09. Somehow, it inspired my daughter to build her own camera with her lego set. She even think of 'opening' a hole in the middle of her structure to see through and 'ci-ca'!! both of them... oh, no... THREE of us were holding cameras and snapped on each other *grin*. We all had a great time!

She makes my life so sweet!

on puff...

there was this very harsh paediatrician said before that, "there is NO other way than inhaler (for little bud) to treat her bad cough!"

"her problem is on her sensitive lungs."

i don't quite like his approach but i was with limited source of help and knowledge that time.

i paid RM300+, for the inhaler, ventolin & seretide. i think with singulair as well.

it was just a year ago. i still remember how she struggled. she hated it! and it didn't show effect at all. she still cough badly. lack of sleep, lack of nutrition.

but i guess i'm a blessed mum. i then very fast met Dr Li in KL who was able to heal Little Bud very well. So well that inhaler abandoned. but i didn't throw it. due to the the price i paid.

yeah, that is pretty much part of the beginning of my challenge.and i thought i won the battle. we won the battle!

unfortunately, wisdom and patience tested again since end last year. this time, we all experienced patient, and patient's caretakers. we take it less panic. we don't want her fully relay on medication. traditional chinese medication still on going, here and there.

it seems that she swings according to weather. she sniffs and wheezes in rainy days; she rants and cracks in sunny day. we read it as, no heaty, cold nor junk food, no water play, no sexy wear. it helps. a little. but wheezes still sound prominent to me.

chinese medication seems losing their battle this time. until last thursday, a feverish morning trigger me. i have to seek alternative solution.

i brought her to see a new paediatrician, Dr Lee. told her all past and present. oh, brought my old set of inhaler to showed her too. we were in dr lee's room for >30 mins. she somehow concluded for me that, "if she is not treated properly, it will affect her growth."i guess i'm really experienced (haa, with Joyce's pre-advices actually). hy needs puff.

for 2 weeks.

this time, she shows her interest. "i want puff, mummy." and she sleeps soundly for the past 3 nights.

though i'm relieve, i still have little doubt about the steroid.

as what mama Joyce advised, i shall bring her to see TCM (traditional chinese medication) again.

It will be a long journey to heal her asthmatic cough.

QP from Artistic Musings

scrapbooking is my therapy. while home alone with her for these 3 days, i was going thru Little Bud's pictures since birth. miss her sharp look compare to puffing eyes now. my little survivor... never stop fighting in her health battle.

SSO at Toa Payoh Central

we were here. for another marvellous concert.
met Mama Joyce and Cherrlyn (pretty little princess).
met Mama Ariel and Hann (we finally met this cute little young man... in library).
met the excellent performance of SSO.
for once, the rain was gone but return to us and listen to the magnificent musics.

unfortunately, she couldn't sit through till the very last minutes.
but then again, the brochure said, it meant for 4 and above:).

sc said, look forward for another outdoor concert.
he loves it. for free and easy reason.

i could not remember when was i last scrapbook.

i could not remember what else i can play with beside edit the picture effect and arrange all the kits accordingly.

i almost forgot why and how i started to scrapbook.

.

until... akizo designs.

we had a wonderful weekend. i'm sure you too:).

another playdate

Last Saturday, last day of February, we were out again for another playdate.

Been looking forward to meet up Mama Evelyn and pretty Layla again since... age ago. She is another mum i know with many bags of brilliant trick with her little one. When she suggested kite for the kids, I was thrilled. Mainly because I'm a city girl and kite in my memory of childhood was kind of blur, and kind of failure too. LOL.

Anyhooo, it was a breezy sunny morning. Winds were just nice to the little ones and inexperienced mum. For few times, HY manage it well in the air without much help.

I'm proud of her:).

We then proceed to near by LTA's transport gallery, lunch at Tekka Market, flour fun! and more other plays at their house. Mama Evelyn did a wonderful post and do hop over and check it out:). I personally like how she wrote in her last para, it is not a bad Saturday at all! Hy wish to say sorry to Layla as well as showing off to her daddy on her skill of soring the kite:).

Didn't I said she's a brilliant mum^^. Many more kampung fun in our concrete jungle to be discovered in her blog.
