October / November 2011

YZ's progress:-

ZM's progress:-
- able to walk on her own
- likes to follow and imitate YZ
- cries whenever things dosen't go her way

Stomach Flu

Yuezuan contacted stomach flu on Tuesday evening, starting with vomiting and then diarrhea. Bought her to KKH on Wednesday morning and she was admitted due to dehydration. Was feeling heartache to see her so weak and put on IV, but glad that she made progress to recover. As her illness is contagious, she missed the school photo-taking sessions. And poor Zaimei who accompanied her sister throughout her stay contacted her illness on Friday and was also hospitalised. Though she was not as serious as her sis, as she is only 11 months old, the doctors didn't want to take any risks. Looking after them together in the hospital was no easy task, but I was lucky that my mum was able to help (Thanks Mama =D). Hope that they will recover and return home soon.

September 2011

September can never be busier!
1. Look for new accomodation in Perth.
2. Extend Perth Trip for Aug-Sep.
3. Pack belongings to prepare for shifting.
4. Shift house and unpack belongings.
5. Fly back to Singapore.
So many events all happening at almost the same time! On top of that, still got 2 princesses to look after. Luckily luck was with us and we managed to get everything sorted and organised. Gotta thank my bro and gf, and my cousin for all the help they have given ;)

YZ's progress:-
- love bedtime stories
- can recite stories told to her
- getting more independent
- able to express herself better

ZM's Progress:-
- able to point to objects to tell you what she wants
- has a mind of her own
- makes her own decision for eating, drinking, etc
- greets 'papa' more affectionately
- can hold and walk more steadily but still loves to crawl ;)

Oz's Father's Day

This year, Oz's Father's Day is on the 4th September 2011. We had a small celebration with the kids and my bro and gf and cousin. We went for yum cha in the late morning and had ginseng chicken and mud cake for dinner.

July/August

Just some quick updates for July - August....
- had celebrations every weekend since 19 June all the way till end July
- busy with the kids as usual (esp. with them falling sick one after the other)
- travelled to Perth on 13 Aug to find hubby =)

Recently Yuezuan got attracted to watching Dora the little explorer. She can spend up to an hour watching 2 episodes at one shot. Sigh *shake head*

As for Zaimei, she is able to crawl better and like to stand and walk with assistance. She has also learned to play with Yuezuan and join her in her games. She also like to play on the electronic keyboard which hubby bought for them. Zaimei can also utter Mama, Papa, BaoBao, MamaBao, Jiejie and Popo.

Overall, both have progressed well and are adapting well in Perth. Hope they will get used to the constant travelling and adapt well to each enviroment without much trouble.

YZ's Sch Progress Sem I

Had a parents-teachers meeting on 28 June 2011. YZ's overall performance and progress are still satisfactory....just hope that she can learn to be more 'sharing' next time =)
