7 ate 9 ...

One evening while tri-scootering in the condo compound ... he stops ...

O : "Mummy, why is 6 afraid of 7 ??
Me : emmmm ... I don't know baby ? (and pretends to not know this joke) ...
O : cos 7 ate 9, 7-8-9,7-8-9,7-8-9 !!! (+ proceeds to shriek with laughter)
Me : Oh, I get it ! Good one babe ! 7 must have been hungry huh?

Ofcourse I was talking to no one then, cos all I saw was O's back as he scootered away.



Amazing what they learn on tv nowadays, huh?


Happily reporting the mundane ... till later, N

Happy TWENTY-TEN peeps ...

first up ...

wanna wish all of ye a wonderful year ahead ....

as you make plans and resolutions ....

here's me wishing you all the best ....

i have been holed up @ home with kiddo ...

he was to start school on wednesday ....

unfortunately, mr.bug found him on tuesday ...

he was down with fever and a sore throat since ...

and wouldn't want to eat anything ....

even his all time weakness - chocolate ice cream ....

i was at wits end ...

kiddo was not hydrating enough for my liking ....

so i asked him what he wanted to eat ...

he told me "my spicy noodles" ....

wanna guess which is his favourite instant noodle ?

nissin spicy noodles ....

i know some of ye may be shaking your heads at this ....

but i was desperate ...

i know for a fact that kiddo would down loads of water ...

if i gave him spicy noodles ...

so i cooked the noodles ...

removed the soup (too pedas lah) ...

and prepared a cup of cold ribena ...

you should have seen the speed at which he gobbled the noodles up ...

and drenched the fire on his tongue with ribena ....

he asked for another helping of noodles ...

and asked for a ribena refill ...

:) :) :)

he's much better today ...

fever hasn't shown itself since this morning ....

and ...

as i am typing this ...

he has eaten 2 pieces of peanutbuttered bread ...

a tub of grape yogurt ...

a yakult ...

and ribena !!!

dare i say kiddo is on the mend ?

hope i don't jinx this ....

fingers crossed and a prayer ...

oh ...

have some photos to share with ye ...

O, even with raging fever ... smiling and playful ...

that's him blocking me from taking a photo of a new LO ...

this is the LO i managed to sneak a photo of ...

done last sunday ....

shows typical kiddo behaviour ....

in constant motion ...
