(not so) Hot Wheels!

Our Little One has acquired a new set of wheels!!!! YYIIPPEEEE!!! ok.. so not so new since it a hand-me-down that has done the toddler circuit in the neighbourhood but it was still a NEW experience for Our Little One!... so technically Our Little One's first set of wheels was his pram but you know.. that does not quite count since for most of his young life, he probably had NO IDEA of bring strapped into the pram anyway.. but the TRICYCLE... now THAT'S different... ok so not that Our Little One goes very far with his new HOT Wheels.. in fact not far at all if the Mummy and the Nanny don't help in the horsepower action (pushing the tricycle)... well you see Our Little One has yet to grasp the concept of peddling.. but he WILL get there!!...

Yet Another First in life

Hahaha.. nothing so good this time.. Ear Infection... and in both ears mind you... we were actually quite shocked to learn that Our Little One had infection in not one but both his tiny cute ears... after all the tylenol and going back and forth with the Toddler Bible about when to send the child to the ER (especially since the fever decided to get higher during the weekend) we never had the suspicion that Our Little One actually had an ear infection... why? his hands never touched his ears! and he could be soothed just by carrying and cuddling... ok so the fever never went away for a few days... but hey! it was kept under control with off the counter fever medication... went to the doctor finally when the week started and immediately got the "what did you think you were doing" look from both the doctor and the nurses.. sigh... oh well.. I guess the Daddy and the Mummy did deserve it.. but hell.. only the Mummy got the look since it was the Mummy who brought Our Little One to seek medical attention... sigh.. the stress and pressures of a mother.. still Our Little One right now is on the road to recovery... the advances in modern medicine is to be praised!... One dose of anti-biotics, the fever was GONE... on the down side however, the anti-biotics have to be administered for 7 days, every 8 hours (in a 24 hour cycle).... not doing much to help the sleep patterns of the Daddy, the Mummy and Our Little One... but then again... that does come with the territory of being part of the world's largest fraternity (parents) doesn't it?

One of the many Firsts in life

Our Little One went to school!.... ok not school.. it's a nursery program (play-school) for kids from the age of 15months... since when did you have to start going to school when you can't even go to the bathroom by yourself? Anyway that aside, there was such a buzz in our household a week before the fateful day...the Mummy went to get new clothes, new lunch bag, new shoes.. new whatever.. you name it, the Mummy probably bought extras of it anyway... But of course all did not run that smooth.. the tears, the fears and the screams were all part of the 1st day... and that was to be expected.. but overall I would say it went pretty well....

On the cusp of 15mths

ha.. when will the Mummy get bored with posting monthly updates on the mundane life of Our Little One.... NEVER!!!! what has been so exciting about Our Little One's life recently... not much... weather is cooling down so he has been brought to the neighbourhood playground for some outdoor activities.. with tons of sunblock of course... the Mummy has come to realise that Our Little One has incredibly delicate skin (like which baby does not) but Our Little One gets flushed red in his cheeks even when he is in shade while the temperature is slightly warmer than normal...and he sweats.. my god does Our Little One sweat... must be from the Daddy's side... the Mummy never breaks a sweat (over anything.. Ha I wish!)
