MONKEYS, and baby Kieran first KTV!

I hesitate whether to post this picture..but i really feel like sharing this.  I was feeling utterly down that day, on the "almost the worst day of my life."  That afternoon i was feeding baby Kieran porridge, as usual i will on his fav channel, Cbeebies, then this particular program call "boogies beebies" is about teaching kids to dance. So there i was feeding and feeling still damn sad and helpless about my chronic skin rashes i heard this song.."heeheehee haahaahaa, hoohoohoo, FUNKY MONKEY!" 

I stopped and i turned to look at the tv..

"wait a sec, is the tv mocking at me? yes it is, WTH?! monkey song? of all animals why MONKEYS?! oh gosh, i'm seriously feeling like a monkey everyday with day n night, unceasing scratching, feeling super duper sad to the max already! and now even the tv is bullying me!!!"  >.< 

i don't what word to describe my feelings. I felt angry, sad but yet i felt a tinge of humor. Now even hubby also making fun of me when he hear this song on tv. GREAT! -.-

 See, i told you guys i won't give up! i even tried acupuncture and ba kwan! my first time... pain lor! now I'm on chinese and western medication.

Kieran 1st ktv experience, its was all unplanned. Met up with Jas for lunch, felix joined and suggested we go KTV, with much persuasion i agreed. It was a sunny Saturday noon, while waiting for has dad to pick us up, took these 2 pictures. Kieran in his chiong Orkley shades! LOL! chiong shades but looks cool on him. HEHE!

my cool baby in his shades

in the ktv.


"mommy and her friends singing, i play.."

"wah, mommy voice so sweet.."=P

nah, thats just a joke, but look at how serious his face!

fell asleep! hey Kieran, we are not singing lullaby songs, lol! fancy him sleeping in such a noisy place. felix put the mic there before i snapped a pic.

lately he had been eating very very very little. Sometimes he even spit whatever heavenly tasting food i offered him. I guess it due to his milk teeth erupting. see?! his 3rd and 4th tooth.. CUTE!!!! but cute when he bites me. 

Cries a lot lately too, due to teething again. so cranky and sticky to me. stickier than ever..

before our weekly family day out, i actually wants to take a pic of him in this tee, super cute cartoon ghost tee. but he kept fidgeting, so hard to take.

i love this pic. 

I bought 3 new pants for him. 2 of which is monkey prints. suits him! My baby monkey . <3 mucks!

in his new monkey pants!

i have all i need. Thank God.

"Dear, 就算你有很多rashes变不好看我和baby都不会介意。Baby也不会因为这样不会叫你妈咪，或不要你。"


Thanks dear, these words meant a lot to me. I love you. I will stay strong for you and Kieran, for those who care, you know who you are. I won't give up or let it get me down. because of the words all of you showered me with, i really felt blessed, and with all those words, i have within me right now everything i need to deal with whatever the world can throw at me. 
Perhaps God wants me to learnt how to really count my blessings and not not woes. 


end note: don't take your health for granted. 
ADELINE loves her life.

Oh GOD please help me!

... Can I give up trying to stop breast feeding?! It's really heart breaking to see him so scare that I will take it away from him.. I failed in the milk bottle substitution instead I successfully make him give up his fav pacifier... that wasn't mommy intention baby! He held on so tightly like its his possession till he fell asleep. I can feel he is traumatized and now he even refuses his favorite pacifier.
I'm desperately hoping for miracle..I'm incapacitated by stress.
The rashes is killing me, yet I can't bear to make him give up on latching. Now is 9am I'm so wide awake by the itchiness. God please help me.

GET WELL SOON.

My darling boy left eye swell last night, last night he cried for quite long before he fell asleep.. seeing his swollen eye makes me heart pain. =(  don't know whether is it because of this he seems to lose his appetite,  (might be also his milk teeth coming out soon) so i brought him to the the clinic the next day. Doctor said maybe due to bacteria infection, most likely the bacteria came in contact while he was exploring and crawling around the house, guess i should spent more time in sanitizing and cleaning the house! Dr Ho gave him antibiotics, anti itch med and eye drop.  Poor baby, hope he gets well soon.

Second unwell "person", our little family member Mr Cookie Koh.
Tummy upset..no appetite.. daddy koh have to Syringe fed him.. through our TLC he is getting better day by day! hope his active mood return soon.

the label reads " Henry's cookie" haha so cute right.

Last unwell person is ME! yes, been unwell for the past 3 months. Everyday i battling with itchy rashes, it is damn torturous. Not only it is physically torturing as it is damn itchy, I'm also struggling emotionally too!

1st Dr : "allergies to seafood.." 

2nd Dr: "white spots, due to humid weather.."

3rd Dr: "no doubt is white spots.." 

4th Dr: "It is eczema.."

5th Dr: "eczema.." 

6th Dr: "chronic allergies, u need to take oral medication in order to cure, but since you're still breast feeding, you have to wait till you stop feeding only then you can safely consume the medication."

very nice! i guess the 7th Dr will say it is skin cancer?

What is chronic allergy?! spare me profound term, i NEED cure! AARRRGGHHH~!!! Someone please help me, God please help me! I'm dying of itchiness! 

i don't know when i will stop bf, but i know it ain't anytime soon. >.< sigh, really hope and pray that i will get well soon. the itchiness is hindering my daily activities, making me short tempered, highly irritable... etc.

ADELINE HOPE YOU GET WELL SOON.

FAMILY DAY OUT.

 Happy Mooncake festival to EVERYONE reading my blog! Or Is it call Lantern festival?! Haha, whatever la,



Today is family day, we bring baby Kieran to the play gym again, the previous time he enjoyed it so much so that we decided to come here again, I feel it's a good place for him to practice his motor skills, during off peak hours though. It is very capacious and my worry of him being injured is kept to the minimum as the surrounding is all cushioned! The owner of the play gym was very friendly and kind too! A daddy of two sons. He recognized us immediately when we reached there and greeted me "老版娘好！＂and he treated us bubble tea n soya bean curd! Haha..

every little steps cover miles.

Baby Kieran didn't smile and laugh a lot today probably this time round the kids in the play gym were more rowdy. (actually i would recommend this play gym for kids above 3.) They kind of frightened little Kieran, but nevertheless I can tell he still enjoys his day out with mummy and daddy today!

Wil upload more pictures from my camera, editing in process.

happy 9 months to Kieran Koh!

MR magician koh!

Kieran turned 9 months old 2 days ago..with this, marked my 9th month of motherhood!!

he knocked his head on the edge of the table while playing in the office. poor boy!

we brought him for his regular check up on 2nd Sept. Baby kieran now weighs 8.6kg and height 71.5cm.

he can say a single word, "MA."

he can crawl on his knees,

he can sit up on his own,

he can roll very fast,

he can play peekaboo,

he can pull himself up with a help of furniture,

he can imitate certain sounds,

he loves to watch cartoon but he don't like teletubbies,

he love to bathe,

he loves being carried and he loves cuddling,

he likes cookies but he don't really like porridge, (like his daddy.)

he always want to have a bite or two of whatever mommy and daddy is eating! 9 (esp ice cream...)

throwing tantrum because i don't want to carry him.

in the morning, in good mood.

new toy! the tissue box. hahaha!

new teether! -.-

happy baby.

Sometimes I really felt that I'm commendable that I should be crowned! "super mom!" haha, i know i sound BHB!, but i just don't care.

I seriously think that being a mom requires all the patience I've got! If patience is a "piece of skin" on me, then no amount of expensive stretch marks cream would be of help, it is stretched to its earthly limits!

At times, (half the times) I feel like pulling every strands of my hair. I wouldn't know I have such praiseworthy of patience in me if not for my precious son Kieran. I do love love little kids..but It's just the raising part of it.

It's like how u love money but hate slogging for it. It's amazing how I managed to keep my cool while i handle my crying machine in the middle of the night, took 3 hours to put coax him to sleep and he woke up after like 20mins?! And then took another 1-2 hrs to put him to sleep again?! Thankfully that only happened when he was about 5 month old.

Ladies, (or even guys as well) some mini tips from me, after my 9th month of motherhood.

1. Firstly, you must have not just strong mentality. BUT SUPER STRONG mentality!

Being a mother will require you to use up ALL of your energy, strength and your cool! and  I realize how much energy it requires to raise a baby and I need to find extra strength inside me that i never knew I had. My body used to sleep for about 8 hours, but now painfully cut down to about 3 to 5 hours.

2. You can't possibly be a control freak, not everything is within control. Let things happen as it will. 

It will ease your stress alot. You can't control and plan everything that is going to happen. You cant control when your baby will cry, when she will wake up, etc..

Adapt to different situations and be prepared for whatever situation may arise.

3. Bottle feed your baby as early as possible, (with BM) even though some may tell you there will be nipple confusion, delay till at least one month etc..You will want to pass the duties to someone else at time, especially when you need to get more winks of sleep..

Cuz you never know she might ended up bottle resistant. (Just like Baby kieran)

4. have sense of humor. Often,  I wonder why being a mother is so difficult and why i can’t seem to get anything right, In order to get through such times, you will need to manage and control the  stress level and laugh it off. well, tough times soon pass before you know it!

5. Lastly however tough it may seems, just keep telling yourself you can do it! Hehe. If not, you call ADELINE THE HOT MAMA help desk @ 9661XXX2.
she is more than willing to advice or help!  

Although I kept ranting how tiring and tough it is being a mom I'm still thankful to God for each moment i have with my son. I'm blessed! Happy 9 month baby. Mommy and daddy Loves you!
