That’s My Boy

Teng Hong turned 5½ years old on 23rd May 2009. He is getting more independent and more “mature” by the day. He always makes sure mummy feels happy and loves him. Almost every morning he wants mummy to lullaby him like a baby before he really gets out of his bed.




Since July last year, he has been interested in Ultraman. He has about 20 Ultraman DVDs and more than 40 Ultraman toys. Last Saturday he got another toy from daddy, the Ultraman Agul.




Beside Ultraman, he also likes Transformers. Daddy bought him a few Transformers since April last year but he started to get interested in it since his 5th birthday (November) when daddy bought him the TRANSFORMERS Nemesis Prime. Later there are few transformers, like: Bumble Bee, Optimus Prime, Cybertron, Star Scream, etc added to his collection.




Boys will be boys after all; he becomes the Ben 10 fans soon after being introduced by my friend’s son who came to visit us. Since then he has quite a lot of Ben 10 accessories, like: comics, DVDs, stickers, watch, omnitrix, pencils, pencil case, school bags and shirts which has become his school uniform. *wink*


He also made daddy bought him a Sony PSP (PlayStation Portable) early this year. We didn’t buy him a Game Boy which he looked forward to having it as his birthday present last year.


See, how lucky he is! Sometimes mummy just thinks whether he is spoiled or not.


Mummy enrolled him in Taekwondo class November last year. The main purpose is for him to mix around and exercise. At first he couldn’t pay attention during the practice; he would just look around or play. Lately after six months joined the class, mummy observes that he has better focus on the practice.

Last Saturday while running (part of the Taekwondo class) he had a fall and knocked the back of his head on the ground. Luckily it was not serious!


On 22nd April 2009, he just had a great fall while playing Gym ball at his kindie and as a result the back of his head was swollen as big as half of a “marble”. The principal called and told mummy about that incident. When mummy went to the kindie to see him, he cried out loud and mummy was shocked to see the big bum. He never got such a big bum on his head before. Later after the school outing to Domino Pizza which he insisted to go, mummy took him to check with his pediatrician. After looked at his head and checked his knee jerk reflex, doctor said there should be no problem but we had to monitor him for 24 - 48 hours. If there is pale, vomiting or drowsiness then we have to get back to her or go to hospital directly.




We were glad that he was fine and the swollen was disappeared in about one week.


In the sense of direction, he is excellent! Last two weeks while on the way to “Aman Suria”, he suddenly asked mummy if we are going to the “Hot Air Balloon” place. Mummy then recalled that we ever been there last year for a “Hot Air Balloon ride” at Dijaya sales night. See, we only passed that road once and he can remember it well! There are a lot of other places that he can tell us well.


Early this month, mummy just discovered that his lower first molar teeth have erupted; the right tooth has emerged more than the left one. Last week the upper first molar teeth have erupted as well. He is only 5.5 years old; still doesn’t know how to brush his teeth properly, sigh!


At kindie, according to some of his teachers’ feedbacks, he can’t focus or concentrate in lessons and that has caused him can’t do well in some of his work!

After received that message and talked to some of his teachers, we talked to him, encouraged and tried to coach him more on his school work at home. Now his concentration has improved a bit but we still need to encourage him on this matter. This week he is having First Semester written assessment for English, Numbers, Chinese including Han Yi Pin Yin and Bahasa Malaysia, we do hope that he will concentrate and do well on his tests!

A Fun Day for the Kids

After no family outing for more than a week because the kids were sick, finally we took them out for having fun yesterday. We went to Tropicana City Mall at PJ and it turned out to be a happy day for them!

They played at some coin-operated kiddy rides, read some story books and comics at Borders, had their favorite ice cream, played at Toys”R”Us and bounced at the Bouncy Castles. The last one was the most excited for them; they bounced and bounced until their bodies were up and down.

High Fever Attack

Teng Hong started fever on Wednesday morning; he woke up at 6am with mild fever. After took medicine he went back to sleep, his fever then subsided and he attended his kindie as usual.
Back from kindie he was fine until late at the night, his body temperature suddenly climbed up to 39.4C. I quickly inserted a suppository into his rectum, the temperature stopped going up but it took about an hour to subside. I then kept on measuring his temperature every hour and was shocked to see the reading was 39.8C. It was about 6 hours after the suppository! I quickly gave him Paracetamol and sponged bath him with a big towel. He felt better as the temperature started to drop.

This morning I took him to a doctor, who confirmed that he got a bad sore throat besides flu and for this, he needs to take antibiotic, sigh!

The same thing happened to his little sister, Xin Yi. She started to have fever this morning, also cause by sore throat but not as serious as his brother. Though I get the antibiotic from the doctor, I haven’t started the course for her, try to wait and see for another one or two days.

Until now both of them still have fever off and on. I hope they will get well soon after the medication!

My New Skin Care Line

Last December while people were busy shopping for Christmas gifts, I was busy searching new skin care products for myself. The Lancome Pure Focus skin care products which I have used for years have been discontinued and this has made me think of switching to another brand.




After read some product reviews, heard some advice from friends and skin care consultants finally I decided to try this brand, Beaute de Kose.




I have been using these products for four months now and I am happy they are suitable for me.

Last Tuesday when Kose had promotion at Megamall's Centre Court, Mid Valley, I purchased another bottle of Sekkisei Lotion and Emulsion. I also purchased the RM30 Kose voucher which enables me to get a door gift Kose Pore Serum 30ml worth RM152 and a photo shoot by photographer with a minimum purchase of RM150 include the RM30 voucher. Isn’t it worth?


She never wants to pose for me and this is her first time :)
