The story of Norma, Talib & Rafiq



I came across this blog last night and cried! It's a lady's account of her sister-in-law's battle with cancer. From what i gather, Norma had headaches when she was 7 months pregnant, after she had the baby (close to her 1st wedding anniversary), tests were done which indicated that she had a tumour in her head/brain. She's in stage 4 of her cancer and has undergone numerous operations.

Time off with the kiddies


This week, i had to take 2 days off cos my parents went outstation. I also came down with a cold, so added an extra day to the time off. The 3 days i had with my kids were absolutely precious. Instead of doing my usual thing where i'd dash off to run errands or window shop with the cikster, i was at home the whole day and i got to know Noah better.
- Sit unaided.
- Crawl (though i still keep an eye on him cos he isnt too smooth at it)
- Sit up from a crawling position.
- Pull himself up in cot.
- Glide.
- Say 'mama' or 'mam mama'.
Ciku turned 3!


My little princess turned 3 recently and boy, was she showered with some amazing gifts! Mummy was as excited as she was to see all the fantastic girly stuff! We had a really simple do for her cos that's all mummy could manage. I wanted to be able to sit down and enjoy in the fun, so i hope the simplicity of the event was ok by everyone.

The little guy's 26wk update

The little man's just 6 1/2 months old but in his short lifetime, he's been fallen sick soooo many times, im starting to lose track of everything that he's had! Shortly after the last entry, he had rozeola, then most recently, and scariest of all, he had bouts of vomitting which cause him to lose 200g in weight in just 3 1/2 hours!!

Peanut - 16 weeks old

- Can turn on his side
- Laughs when being tickled or people make funny sounds and faces
- Tries to hold feeding bottle
- Notices his feet and hands
- Recognizes loved ones, including his sister (oh, he stops crying when he hears his sister babbling).
Life at home is still chaotic. Big sis is still having issues with sharing her toys with brother, and is prone to whining and crying to get attention. Right now both the kids have a cough and a running nose thanks to ciku. I decided to take the baby to the clinic today and told ciku about it. The idea was to drop ciku off at Oma & Opa's and then to take Oma with me to clinic. I forgot to tell ciku the plan, so when we drive into O & O's neighbourhood, she asks:
ciku: Where are we going, mummy?
me: Oma and Opa's house.
ciku: i thought we are going to see Dr Lam at clinic?
me: stunned.
Like, since when can she say stuff like, "I thought"????
I have a lovely tooth ache. I hope my maid hasnt cursed me since i confiscated her supposed meds for tooth ache (found it hidden in her undies). Well, she doesnt know i took it...sigh!

Peanut - 12wks
Ciku's progress? She can amuse herself by playing on her own. Her favourite line to her toys: "what your name?"
