A day after visiting the Zoo bb fell sick, not because of the zoo, I hope not. When he came back from Mil’s house, he was perfectly okay except he slept extraordinary early at 9pm. I thought may be bb is tired and wanted to rest early. I then went down to watch some show, after a disc, I headed back to the room and checked on him. OMG! He was like a pot of hot kettle. I grabbed a thermometer to check, it showed 38.4 degree, freaked out, I called hubby to help out with medicine while I sponged him. His face was rosy red, eyes still closed. As usual refused medicine, cry out loud but settled with a bottle of water and as active, played with the thermometer. He then purged watery stool. I monitored him the entire night just to make sure he was okay as he has history of fever as high as 40 degree and was admitted to hospital for 3 days in 2004. I was worried sick. I took a day of on Wednesday to send him to the pediatrician, just to make sure he was free of any ulcers or infections. He w...

Hubby wanted to go for shopping but I was so very sick of it. I prefer some nature outings. I suggested the butterfly park as the bird park in Lake Garden was quite good the last time we went. We drove all the way there. When we arrived at the entrance, the butterfly park did not look all interesting and it was a bit small. Hubby made another suggestion to head to the zoo. Bb was sleeping at that time, so eventually we decided zoo it was. It was a second trip to the zoo this year alone. This time bb has more awareness, he could recognize more animals. He fed carrot to the deer, wanted to touch the camel badly, climbed up the ape man signboard like an ape, calling out the bus in the zoo, running loosely like a wild cat. There was this one instance when we were resting at one of the bus stand in the zoo. A 5 or 6yr old kid was having his Mamee snack, the kid was making some sign to bb and bb took out a strip of Mamee and put it in his mouth. OMG! When did he have a strip of Mamee with h...

May the New Year brings you lotsa love, joy, health and wealth.

Bb was not around when I reached home. Fil brought him out to grab the evening newspaper at one of the near by sundry shop. When he reached home, he called me and kept pointing his fingers to his teeth and relating his story to me. Oh…poor boy, he has sweet stuck in between his two front teeth.

Here is BB, the little chef. “Cling, clang, cling, clang….” BB what are you cooking? "Egg......." ^__^

I had to send bb to mil house today as Fil is not able to pick him up this morning. There is this lovely Mr. Sun shining on his face and body. The little fellow called his kakak, “kak, Sun” asked her to cover the sun with his little security blanket while his head bent down a little to prevent the sun from hitting his face directly. He definitely got this from me. I hate to be hit by the sun directly too. It’s just so uneasy, I reacted naturally. If I recalled correctly, when he was in my tummy, he would move away rudely creating commotion in my tummy when there was sun hitting towards my big tummy. Weird hah! Wonder does this happen to other baby and toddler too? He grabbed his milk and a “Totoro” VCD that I just bought for him while sitting in his car seat. He loves this Totoro bear so much that he kept calling Totoro, Totoro, Totoro as if he is calling his best pal. Surprisingly, he loves this show and able to sit for quite some time concentrating on the story.

Few weeks ago, I stumbled upon my long overdue project in the store room. Know what is this? Hehe… It was my first attempt to make soap from scratch. It’s been almost a year ago. After finishing them, I just left it there to age. Little did I know that a short period of age turned out to be a year? This is best described with the Malay proverb “Hangat hangat tahi ayam”. *Embarrassed smile* I was very excited over this project. It took me quite a while to get the one very important element for the soap saponification process. That’s Sodium Hydroxide. Earlier on when I was working in KL, I used to frequent KLCC’s Kinokuniya for soap making book. After reading them for a while, I started experiment it. After a long period of searching, thanks to Ah-li my friend, who directed me to the right person who is working along this soap making line; she gave me some sodium sample, of coz it’s the diluted version, I had to play around with the water amount. It’s not easy to come by this sodium coz ...
