We…Our Fire Engine Is Here!

PC040001 Vee… Our Fire Engine Bunk Bed for both kids have arrived today.

Actually, this Fire Engine Bunk Bed we had came across during last month, when we having our lunch at the USJ19 Mall. Kids Wonderland was having their road show there for a few days, so happened that we passed by and one of the display fire engine kid bed attract us.

Most of the kids furniture there really funky and cute, and most importantly, kids love it so much. It was a small corner, displayed a interesting bunk bed with some shelves and small tiny cabinets, kids table and chairs in bright colours, toys, playschool slides, and there is a fire engine kid bed. So cute. Daddy and Mummy were busy asking the price, browsing through the catalogue and took some measurements, just to double check if it can be fit in our small master bed room.

Both Daddy and Mummy were putting aside this ‘bunk bed’ thing for some while, as we wanted to search for the cheaper version or if can source it direct from the manufacturer. After checking for a while, it seems like they are the manufacturer their own.

Finally, last Sunday 28th November 2010, Daddy purposely go to the marketing office and place the order there. Their marketing office is just nearby Giant USJ1 only. It is not difficult to find. It is not a quite nice showroom, but at least whatever the kids furniture display there, we had an idea of how it is looks like and the size too. Initially was told to us that will be arrive by the following Monday only.

Then, it was a surprise too, yesterday Kids Wonderland called Daddy and told him that the bunk bed had arrived. Daddy was so happy, and paid the balance, and here our Fire Engine Bunk Bed arrived.

The bunk bed is knock down furniture and is in spray paint MDF board. It actually took the installer about 2 and a half hour to assemble it. Both Issac and Annabelle are so happy and jumping, running here and there during the installation time. We had to dismantle the existing 2 single beds frame before install the new one.

Issac is sleeping on top and Annabelle is sleeping at the bottom. Mummy no need to illustrate longer as the photos will tell it all.

Here the Fire Engine come! Ee Oh…Ee Oh…Ee Oh…

Annabelle…2nd day of AH1N1

PC020002 Last night, Annabelle was coughing the whole night and her body temperature also still high, Mummy can feels her body heat. Then, today she was looking tired all the day, and just lay on the floor with her favourite blanket.

Mummy keep telling myself that, this is only the 2nd day and probably she feels sleepy after her medication. Hope tomorrow she will be feeling better and better. At least, after this morning, her body temperature had came down, just tired.

Poor Annabelle…

Teacher Joyce did sms and asking about family and the children. It is very nice of her.

Annabelle fall sick again…AH1N1

PC020004 Ya…ya…ya…she is sick again and this time down with AH1N1.

Today really a long anxious waiting and waiting day.

This morning Mummy decided to bring Belle go to visit Dr Liew again, because her fever supposed to be subside on Monday. Today is Wednesday already, and last night she was coughing and can hear her phlegm is getting back. She still can run up and down even at Dr Liew’s clinic. Dr Liew did a blood test and swab test, then Belle took a nasal treatment to reduce her phlegm. She was grumping when taken the treatment.

After 15 minutes medication, we were directed to outside to waiting for the result and Dr consultation. It is confirmed that Belle is infected with the AH1N1 virus. At that moment of time, Mummy was stunned and do not know what to know. Dr Liew said we have 2 options: admit to the hospital and let the hospital take care everything as they do have the equipments and the medicine, or another option will be in and out patient, that take care the her in the house. He was recommended that admitted to hospital.

On the spot, Mummy was calling Daddy to tell him this news. Really a ‘breaking news’ for him! We chose the SDMC (Sime Darby Medical Centre) instead of SMC (Sunway Medical Centre). Immediate after, Mummy drove Belle to SDMC straight and waited for Daddy there. At first, Mummy gone to the Emergency Ward, after the nurses saw the letter from Dr. Liew, then they directed us to the Consultant Paediatrician Dr Khoo. She was not in when we were there, after a few minutes Daddy came already.

We did the registration, and wait for our turn, we were no. 9, and Dr Khoo was not in yet, she was then in only around 10.30am. We were waited so long. Finally our turn was around 12 noon already. Dr Khoo consultation room is not big but full of toys. May be due to too long waiting, Belle started to get impatience, not doing whatever Dr told. By seeing her situation like that, Dr Khoo was advising that Belle can take medication in home.

As we were asking about our family need to be quarantine or any precaution action need to be done? According to her, AH1N1 has become a seasonal common flu worldwide already, as long as adults do not feels headache, fever, stuffy nose, difficult breathing, etc, we still can go to work.

Dr Khoo did check through Dr Liew medicine that given to Belle, Belle still can continue back whatever prescriptions before, and she added one more medicine the Oseltamivir, known as Tamiflu. The medicine will be 2.5ml 2 times a day for 5 days. A complete coarse for 5 days. After 5 days, we will have another session again. That will be on Monday.

It was about 1.00pm when we left SDMC. We having our Dim Sum as lunch at USJ 21, then we came back home. Let Belle took her medicine, Mummy was doing some hygienic cleaning in the house: changing bed sheets, washing the clothes, blankets, all with Dettol. Even though she is sick, but she is still playing with Issac. After her night medicine, she felt tired and went to sleep.

What a tiring day, hope days come things will be better…

Sometimes, it is really true that the elder child in the house will lead the younger siblings, so you have to teach your eldest child good, so that the younger siblings will follow the example of their elder brother or sister.

A Flower for Mummy ^^

PB290028 Today actually is not really a good working day for Mummy. Lately, it was feels like everything seems like everything is not going my way. After three of us (Issac, Annabelle and Mummy) had our quick dinner, taken our bath, we just sitting around.

Mummy was busy writing the blog, Annabelle was laying on the floor with her favourite blanket, then Issac brought over a sunflower to me, and said,” Mummy, I give you this flower. I love you.” Then, he kissed my face.

I was so touched…speechless…”Mummy love you too…”
