Mummy has COLLASPED...

Sigh, being a useless Mummy, I have fell sick on Friday. Merely 1 week since Cayenne admitted and discharged from hospital and Double Cs on nebulizer after that, my body gave way... USELESS!!!

I felt feverish, aching and shivering when came back from hopsital on Friday. I prayed hard not to collaspe, not when my Double Cs need me most at this time... Quickly popped medicine but still felt sick...

Dennis rushed back on Friday night & he has to continue his work trip on Monday. Last night, I had no choice but to ask Dennis if it was possible to delay his work trip in the Monday afternoon. I was still feeling very weak last night. Today I need to clean up Cayden's cot, change bedsheets, sweep/mop floors, prepare porridge before Cayden boy comes home. Lucky Dennis can fetch our son back.

Past few days been terrible... Been running to and back from hospital. Early morning 6am I woke up to do the housework, prepare porridge for Double Cs. When Cayenne woke up, prepared milk, medicine, and do nebulizer, bathed before we rushed to hospital... I even brought the machine to hospital as Cayenne needed to do nebulizer in the afternoon... Evening 7, 8 plus, back home, bathed, milk, medicine, nebulizer, wash clothes, bottles before sleep. Alot of things to do! Oh yes, for the past few days, Cayenne didn't take her nap at all. She was so happy in the hospital... Sigh...

When I reached hospital, I took over from my helper so that she could catch some rest... So in the end, I myself didn't rest well... But how to rest when my Double Cs need me?

Back home...

Cayden has discharged today 27th September 2010... When Doctor told me Cayden still couldn't discharge on Saturday, my heart sank... My boy really got problems with the hateful PHELGM!

Now he is still napping, already 2 hours. Hope he can sleep more. He hasn't been sleeping well for the past few days and nights... Cayden boy was so cranky and discomfort in the hospital. Kept making noises. Hope he will be better at home...

Cayden's Turn...

To get admitted to hospital yesterday! I was really sad and worried!

Brought Double Cs back for review and was hoping and praying hard that they could get cleared by Doctor... But alas... Both still need nebulizer! Cayenne has to be on nebulizer every 8 hourly till 29th September 2010 while my Cayden boy has to be admitted! Argh!!! What is WRONG?!!!

Being a useless Mummy, I feel physically and mentally drained out slowly... After last week... I am so afraid that I can't handle all this by myself, having to run to and back from home and hospital. Too bad Dennis is not in Singapore now! I wish he is by myself now.

When I hear that Cayden has to be admitted, in my heart and brain, am thinking how to take care of him when my Cayenne definitely will not stay home with my Dad and helper. So with a heavy and guilty heart, I have no choice but to let helper stay in the hospital with Cayden. Heart breaks... *Sob*

Cayenne's Expressions...

Cheeky! & Super FAKE Crying Sounds she made! Made us laugh! She herself also can't help laughing... Cheeky Girl! ;p

Mid Autumn Festival 2010

Went over to my brother's place to play lantern. In the end, I was the one carrying the lanterns! The kids were more interested in the candles. Haha...

Cayenne got hospitalized! ;(

Cayenne developed flu on Monday 13th September 2010 SUDDENLY. Thereafter, cough and the hateful PHELGM! Sigh. Once got phelgm, I know for sure will have many problems waiting ahead for me...

Tried to quarantine Double Cs, but really hard. So I EXPECTED Cayden will catch the bug soon. Cayenne developed fever on Wednesday afternoon. Thought after 1 or 2 dosages of medicine, the fever should subside. But it did not. In fact the fever shot higher and higher which scared me. Highest was 39. 8 deg! That was on Thursday wee hours. Quickly fed medicine and sponged her. Cayenne didn't like the sponging part but what to do... She cried and begged me not to but I had to be the devil. ;(

Patted her sleep. Realised her breathing kinda of weird. She seemed to use alot of effort to breathe. I was worried. 1 hour later, fever still lingered around 38.8 degrees which I found it quite unusual. I was thinking to send her to hospital in the midnight. But decided to hold on. Anyway the morning came and I told Dennis if Cayenne's fever didn't come down, I would bring her to hospital.

Brought her to Thomson Medical Centre and Doctor said must admit to hospital due to wheezing sound and difficulty in breathing. Need to be on nebulizer as well. I was so blurred cos Cayenne never been admitted to hospital before. I thought it was probably a day admission. Doctor told me at least 3 days. Sigh... Doctor told me that the bug can spread, so better quarantine my Double Cs.

Lucky Dennis was in Singapore last week. So I asked him to bring Cayenne's stuff and mine over. I didn't go back home since Thursday till Saturday. I was missing my Cayden boy badly. But Cayenne needed me now.

I called home to check on Cayden everyday and was hoping that he didn't catch the bug. But my helper told me Cayden started to sneeze a few times and cough. Then stopped. But on Friday, Dennis told me that our helper told him Cayden started to cough with phelgm. Argh! Told Dennis to bring Cayden to hospital as well to do a check on Saturday.

So in the end, Cayden boy also need to be on nebulizer as well! *Double Blows for Mummy! ;(*

Barney Live Musical 12th September 2010 Sunday

Arranged with some Mummies to bring our Darlings to watch Barney Live Musical. So happy to be able to meet up with them. Also very happy that my Cayenne was very very excited when she saw the advertisement banner outside Expo. She kept shouting, "Mummy! Barney!" "Daddy! Barney!" Haha... As for me, I was very very very excited as well! Hey, 1st time watched this show!

Double Cs' eyes glued to the stage when the show started. Cayenne was happily standing and moving her little body and turning around to smile @ me. I saw her smile, I melted... Made my day! Though the show wasn't what I expected, nonetheless, I was happy to see my Cayenne happy and enjoyed the show... Hope to bring her and Cayden to more of these live shows in the future! Dear Mummies! Remember to "jio" me if you all are going to any of the shows ya! Hee... ;p

Tim Sum Brunch, 11th September 2010, Saturday

Went for Tim Sum with Jann on 11th September 20110, Saturday. Jann commented on why we ALWAYS go for Tim Sum. Hee... I told her it is Dennis's favourite! ;p

After brunch, we went to The Central as there was a Taiwanese Food Festival. But alas, not ready yet as it was early afternoon. ;(

Dear all, if you guys going to Central, if possible, don't use its carpark. I think it is the WORST carpark! Into & out of the carpark, made me headache!!!

Dennis asked me if keen to go again in the evening for the Food Festival, I said "NO!" if we are going to park in The Central. The thought of the carpark made me headache again... ;(

Jacob Ballas Children's Garden, 10th September 2010, Friday

Dennis was supposed to come back from his business trip on Saturday but he came back on the 09th September which SURPRISED me. I got a SHOCK when he opened the door. ;p I was thinking how come he didn't call/sms me beforehand... Think he wanted to give us a surprise! Thanks Dear. For making the effort to come home early to spend time with us... ;)

Dennis since started on his new job has been very busy with working and whenever he is in Singapore, he makes an effort to spend quality time with us. Always bring us OUT. I'm starting to behave like my Cayenne... Always looking forward for Dennis to come back from work and drive us to anywhere! Yes! ANYWHERE as long as OUT OF THE HOUSE! Haha... Felt so boring staying at home though I do bring my Double Cs out. But we cannot venture out further... Not convenient without a car... Oops... Pampered Me... ;p

Well, Friday 10th September 2010 was a public holiday. So Dennis suggested to bring Double Cs for some outdoor sunshine activities... So off we went to Jacob Ballas Children's Garden. This time, Cayenne had fun touching some plants/fruits and walking the "shaking" bridge... Oh yes, and of cos the water play... Cayden still looked BLUR during the water play... Had not warmed up to the public water, I suppose. Haha...

@ Lift Lobby

Having fun...

Double Cs in PJs

Double Cs were having fun in the cot. I was happily snapping them on camera. ;)
