Testing... testing 123

Testing on my d3000... gosh! it's not as easy as i thought. There're so many to learn and i think baking is much more easier than this... hehe. After having my new hobby - baking and photography (sort of)... i have lack of time to manage my blogs.
I'm extremely tired lately... it's 11.41pm now... few more minutes to 12am... i'm not Cinderella but need to shut down my pc at midnight! Nothing much... just that my tired eyes can't open any longer... LOL ^^ Good night!

my new baking blog

Fall in love with 'baking' recently... created a new blog cos 'twinsdiary' is mainly for my twins milestones. However, 'mysimplebaking' will be in chinese cos most of the recipes i found were in chinese!!

Still new to 'bake'.. a lot to learn in fact. A beginner like me always get to mix up with all the ingredients and terms in used >_<

In the meantime, i'm doing my posts in twinsdiary here... i know it's long time outdated! Some more now is handling 2 blogs... greedy me :p

Be patient & stay tune!

Thank you.

** I'm not an expert, just a new leaner who wish to keep record on my 'work'.

Weaning Pacifier (戒奶嘴篇)

20/9/09, 10.30pm (Day 1)

Twins is 2 years, 6 months, 1 week and 4 days old

I'm gonna start my mission - to wean twins from pacifier! Was dragging my plan about 1 month ago... everytime i say want to start but twins daddy always pour me with cold water! He says i'm 'cruel' not to let twins has pacifier. Haha! No matter what he says, i'm gonna do it right now!

Before twins go to bed... jie jie already started to ask for her '嘴嘴' (pacifier). But i refuse to give her. I start my statement : 'you have grown up, cannot have pacifier anymore, ur teeth will look ungly, pacifier stink, teeth will pain etc. all type of nonsense'... Haha. Then she forgot bout it cos enjoy playing with her mei mei on the bed. While they playing crazily i quicky go and brush my teeth. Usually they like to scream and laugh til i can hear it from outside the living room. it's weird today cos twins is quite!

In bedroom, i noticed jie jie is sucking her pacifier quietly.. aiyo.. no wonder so quiet!! I asked her who gave her pacifier but she just show me smiley face. While her mei mei very kepoh... she tells me : 吃嘴嘴,牙齿不美丽咯! ('eat' pacifier, teeth not nice).. Then i ask mei mei why she didn't take her pacifier, she replys me : 不可以,不美丽。(cannot, not beautiful). Right after that, she stand in front of the mirror and showing a big grin. Hahaha... she really make me & her daddy laugh! She feels 'paiseh' and quickly lay down on her bed.. wakakakka!! what a funny girl we have.. however, mummy is so proud of her!!

While our nughthy jie jie still sucking her pacifier happily.. i go to her, take out the 'busuk' pacifier then let her smell it! she still insisit not to let go. 没法子了,得出杀手柬。呵呵! i tell her to choose either to sleep with me or sleep alone with her pacifier.. this super glue will definately choose me. Hence, she hands out her pacifier and sleep next to me. I know is hard for her cos seeing her turn left, turn right, turn left then turn right again.. like missing some pieces... hahah. Tonight i have to pat her to dreamland. Tired but worth it!

任务成功! ^^


21/9/09, 3.46pm (Day 2)

Twins sleep in craddle for nap time, on bed at night. Jie jie is asking for her pacifier again. I tell her that if she wants to sleep in ‘摇摇’(cradle), she can't have her ‘嘴嘴’(pacifier). She starts making noise, i calm her by telling a beautiful lie: 'are you forgot that your pacifier is with nanny? we didn't bring it back.' Hahaha.. i think she also forgot what happen last night. She repeats my sentence ‘ 嘴嘴没有带回来’then i ask to hold her pillow tight and close her eyes. She did it again! Bravo to mei mei as well cos never even say a word bout pacifier!

I never thought it would be easy to make twins say bye bye to their beloved pacifier. Twins daddy also having same question. We always heard people say it is quite tough especially when kids grow up. Glad my girls can do it within 2 days! Hopefully they can keep it up at babysitter house.

How to feed medicine?

Today is Raya holiday but going no where. Twins is taking their nap now, hence i got free time to update my long outdated post. You might feel weird why i still wanna update those old post? In fact, i should do it in daily or weekly basis! Since i changed to this new company, my time become non-flexible. Besides working hour is longer, i don't have much time to blog during working hours too. My work can be piled up like a mountain anytime especially early of the month. Back to my old post issue, nothing much actually just to keep track my twins growth :)

We used to feed twins with medicine using disposable syringe. I carry the baby, hold her hands and legs to make sure she can't move. If she refuse to open mouth or sometimes turning her head left and right, then we might need help from grandma or ah yi. Daddy always be the one who feed medicine. As if he can't do it.. i'll take over and feed the naughty girl all by myself using plastic spoon. As time goes by, baby girls grown up and be abled to follow instruction. No more forcing or scolding, no more 2 or more adults in action. Daddy alone can handle everything! Of course mummy is standby next to him.

While continuing my Jan'09 post, found this video in 'My Document' which i think quite interesting! Although she unwilling to take the 'bitter water', endup still can finished all without wasting a drop. I'm so proud of you, my little girl!!

我要吃'毛'!

两个小瓜最近爱上吃‘毛’!到底‘毛’是什么东东?登、登、登、登。。它就是鸡丝。瓦卡卡 *晕* 不知为什么小瓜会跟鸡丝改名,真是莫名其妙。 更莫名其妙的莫过于我这个妈咪,突然用华文写起blog来了。

Be Strong My Cousin

Due to my working hour crash with hospital visiting time, i counldn't make it to visit my poor cousin. Thinking to take leave but plan was blown at last. However, my mum is abled to tumpang my aunty's car and visit her almost 4 times a week. Although we are advised not to expose to those 'dangerous' area as Inf. A (H1N1) is out of control, but my mum and aunties still 'rajin' visiting a virus building!

10/09/2009
According to my mum, doctor said my cousin should have wake up by now. He suspects her brain has blood clot and make her stay unconcious! He suggest to transfer her to GH, KL as they don't have such 'advance' facilities to check on her. She's having treatment at Kajang Hospital at the moment.

11/09/2009
At GH, she is getting better as the blood clot was cleared. But her blood pressure like roller-coaster... going up and down. Whenever she heard someone calling her name.. her heartbeat getting faster as well as blood pressure going up. While she's sleeping, it becomes stable. Anyway, still not wake up by now! (Although her eyes open but then close again very fast, doctor said this is not called 'awake')

Couldn't remember which day, mum said she has slight fever due to engorged breasts (涨奶). Overall she looks better than earlier. At least no more dropsy (水肿). Still, she ables to open her eyes just a moment... and rub her stomach once a while! I don't think she knows her baby has gone :(

I don't think she can accept the reality after fully awake cos she loves kids very much.. Never thought this kind of tragedy could happened. May she can be strong! God bless!!

My doubts:
From my cousin's incident, my mind came out with all these queries :-

1) Pregnant mama can't take Bak Kut Teh at all? What if just a small portion, is it harmful?

2) Cannot do emergency operation/c-sec while pregnant mama's blood pressure is high?

3) If stomach ache, should we send the pregnant mama to hospital or the hospital she booked for delivery? (where 1st time mama doesn't know whether is labour pain or normal stomach ache)

4) Pregnant mama having her routine check up at private hospital, in case anything happen, still can admit into GH?

Mind to share your thought with me?

Last but no least, thanks all for your kind concern and prayers!! *hug hug*

egg plant + minced pork

Our favourite dish from wai po! When i was young i don't like egg plant due to its soft texture. It just make me feel 'geli'. Ever since my mum use it to make Yong Taofu, i started to love it! Now it cook with minced pork and a bit of salted fish... simply delicious!!
This is my 2nd time introduce my favourite dish to twin.. of course they don't want to open their golden mouth again. These 2 picky girls even like to pick out all chopped spring onion *faint* "不要菜菜" (dun wan vege).. this is what they always says during meal time. Ok, let's forget about vege... plain rice mix with minced pork is definately superb!!

Happy Anniversary 090909

A special day to remember 090909. In chinese, 99 can be meant as 'everlasting' (长长久久). 3 years back of today, i ended my single life and signing on an 'official paper' with him.

He is not romantic type of guy.. he is a 100% good husband, 200% good father but only 50% good lover. Sorry to say this.. haha! Anyway, i do appreciate what you've done for me. Thanks dear!
Grab this chance to share with you all a few old photos of me & him.

his birthday

engagement

wedding ceremony

Please pray for her 请为她祈祷

My cousin is an easy-going and happy lady who was trying hard to get pregnant after married. Among all cousin sis, she is the one more closer to me. Sharing all her sweet & sour, up & down... she always call me up for advises and i'll always be there. Got to know her good news few months back that she was pregnant and her e.d.d. on Nov'09.

Today after lunch, i went back to pack some stuff, heard a bad news from my mum. Indeed it's a shocking news to me! My dear cousin was admitted into hospital and lost her baby. I couldn't hold my tears on that moment!! Last week, she just rang me up and told me bout her pregnancy status etc. sounds happy and exciting. But now...

According to my mum, her sis (my aunt) called up and said that she was having Bak Kut Teh for dinner last night.. she was not feeling well at middle of night, feeling dizzy and stomach ache. After consult doctor at 2am+.. she took medicine.. feel better and back to sleep. However, later in the morning 6am+ she was feeling bad as her stomach very pain.. her husband quickly sent her to the government hospital. As they reach, my cousin fainted. Her nose and teeth gum also bleeding. Doctor said her blood pressure is very very high... reach 200!! Gosh!! That's very dangerous. At 7am+ doctor announced that her baby is gone :(( *sob sob*

We didn't know the real situation well as my aunt just called up and informed us.. All my aunties will go to the hospital as well as my mum. What i know is her baby is gone, she remains unconcious and not stable as her blood pressure is still very high. We can't do anything to help her. Just praying hard, hope she is safe!

My dear cousin, please be strong!! Your parents, husband and all of us need you!!
