Mui Mui 'Reading'

Mui Mui as we fondly call our 2 year old little girl; is into 'reading' these days. Not that she can actually read, but she 'pretends to be reading' by flipping her books and recite the stories we have read to her from her memory.

She can 'read' the whole 5 pages of Little Read Riding Hood.

Her favourite lines from Alice in Wonderland: "Alice was tired of sitting at the bank with nothing much to do. The sun is making her sleepy and she is just wondering about making a daisy chain when a rabbit ran past saying oh dear! oh dear! I shall be too late. Taking a watch from his waistcoat pocket. Alice has never seen a rabbit with waistcoat or a pocket watch, so she followed him to see where he is going. When the rabbit went down a rabbit-hole. Down went Alice after it. Suddenly, Alice felt herself falling. She landed on a heap of dry leaves. Oh dear! How late it is getting, she heard the rabbit saying..."

From Sleeping Beauty: " Hahh! Screamed a cruel mocking voice. Heed the spell of Carabos! On her fifteenth birthday, the princess will pricked her finger on a spindle and die!..."

Sick, sick, sick!

We have been all sick! Seems there are some serious bugs around.

My girl vomited, had diarrhoea and super high fever (up to 39.5 degree Celcius!) from Sunday till Wednesday. I've been coughing for almost 2 weeks now and was down with stomach flu at the same time when my daughter was sick. Can you imagine driving to the doctor's clinic, sponging your burning child the whole night, wrestling with her to get her to swallow her medication and checking her temperature every 15 mins the whole night while you are feeling light headed, feverish and nauseous all at the same time? Gosh... hope this will never ever happen again.

Hubby was not spared, he was also down with stomach flu like me.

I'm back !

It has been a long long 6 months that I've abandoned this blog. Been too busy to write at home and my company has actually blocked all access to blogger.com, facebook and instant messengers (including web-based)! Can you imagine the boring working life without all these!? It was almost hell!

A lot has happened in these 6 months. My little girl has grown so much and is now 2 years and 1 month old. My dad has left us suddenly on 12th of February 2009 after a heart-attack. I've officially stopped breastfeeding on 16th of February 2009; after 23 months of being a moo.
