8th Year Wedding Anniversary!

today is 29th Feb 2008...
it has been 8 years since we last registered our marriage...
how time flies! :)
It has been a wonderful 8years with dh.
he has always been a great dh and daddy to Kady.
I really hope & wished tt there will be many, many, many more wonderful years that we can spend, look forward & backward to. :)
Today both dh & myself took leave to spend some time together...
had breakfast @ Ikea Alexandra, bought some furniture, came home to rest.
Then went to The Buffet @ M Hotel for lunch.
the main course are quite ok. Roast beef was really good...
but the desserts suck big time. :(
then went to Takashimaya where dh bought me a new mobile.

simple way to celebrate but hey... sometimes simplicity is the best you know! ;)

What a start of CNY!!!

this CNY has to be the worst ever for us!!!

On the evening of the 1st day CNY, I was down with fever...
When I woke up the next morning on the 2nd day of CNY, I was feeling really bad... think I must have looked horrible...
'cos dh actually wanted to drive me back to Singapore (we were in Batu Pahat, dh's hometown for the CNY) to see a doc...
by the time we reached Singapore, it was abt 12pm+... went to 2 clinics around our area but all closed.
so decided to pop panadol & take a nap to see how I feel...
woke up at abt 3pm+ feeling worse than ever...

Dh drove me to Singapore General Hospital (SGH for short) A&E.
by the time I reached the hospital, my fever was 38.9 degrees.
heart beat rate was 140+...
doc put me on drip & was under observation for abt 4hrs....
also popped another 2 panadol... aft 4 hrs, heart beat dropped to 114 still not ideal as doc wanted me to drop below 100 before he'll let me off... but I insisted to get discharged. fever also dropped to 38.1 degrees....
diagnosed with acute sinusitis - something which I never had before... I mean I never even had mild sinus let alone an acute case at that!


Back home literally sleep for the next 2 days.
then when I am slightly better, dh is down with cold & almost same symptons as myself... Kady got fever.

This afternoon, dh brought her to the PD & her fever was 39.8 degrees!!!
Gosh! she immediately had to put the bullet in her bum.
My poor baby! & where is this mummy? I'm still not well but had to go back to work today cos really too much work to clear + boss travelling off tomorrow, need to prepare his staff before he flies off. :(

really thankful that I hv such a supportive & understanding dh who managed to help me to take care of our little girl while I worked. & he's not feeling all that well himself too! I'm kinda feeling tt I'm a lousy mom & wife! :_(

& at work today, in my haste to rush up the stairs, I tripped & nearly fell... luckily managed to break my fall with my hand & as a result, twisted & cut my little finger on the right hand.
How "lucky" can 1 get!!!

The only piece of good news I have so far is that boss announced my promotion to executive level today... so all hard work for the past year hasn't been in vain.... :)

@ 28 weeks....

just went for the routine ckup this morning...

bb is growing well according to the doc.
bb is now abt 1.2 - 1.3kg @ 28 weeks.
BB has already turned down.
Asked the doc if there is still a chance tt she will turn/move again
& doc said unlikely.... at this stage if head is turned down, its likely to stay tt way cos the head is the biggest & heaviest. :P

BB fav activity is to kick mommy. esp at night.
mostly aft 10pm or in the middle of the night.
