Lynn was about 17 months when this photo was taken. She was the flower girl for her babysitter's youngest daughter wedding.
This was taken on Lynn's 2 years old birthday. I like her smile on this picture. She was so happy. I even print this out and frame it and place it near the living room, so I can see it everyday. 
This was taken using my hand phone. Lynn wanted to come take the hand phone from me. 
The Internet service at home has been down for more than one week. Each time when there is heavy rain, the Internet service most probably will get affected. So after a heavy rain last week, the Internet service was out again. The modem show no signal of the ADSL. We waited for one day (sometimes it gets OK on the following day) still not working before we call TM to lodge a complain. They called up the following day, asking if the Internet service had been fixed. We tried after reaching home, still no signal of the ADSL shown in the modem. We called TM again to tell them the results.
We tried almost every day after coming home from work. Everyday we get disappointed. I was so frustrated that I told hubby, this time we should ask for rebate. It was already one week without the Internet service. What for am I paying for something that I could not use? I was so angry and disappointed with their service and responsiveness.
Yesterday, hubby borrowed a modem from colleague (he got a spare modem) to check if it was our modem giving problem. After fixing the modem from colleague, hey the ADSL signal is on! So means our modem is the one giving problem! After TM had fixed the Internet service, apparently we could not verify it using the faulty modem. We almost wanted to email to TM for complaining for the poor service. Luckily they had changed email address so the email did not get through.
Went to an organic shop to buy the fenugreek last month. After knowing that I'm taking fenugreek to stimulate more breast milk, she recommended me taking the brewers yeast flakes. As it is not too expensive (around RM15 for one tin as shown above), I agreed to give it a try.
She told me to take it 3 times a day, one tablespoon each time. However I don't quite like the taste and the smell of the yeast. So I just add 1 teaspoon each, twice a day (I'll be having 2 cups of hot drink - in the morning and after lunch at work). The results? Quite effective actually. Can notice some increase in the milk supply.
Hao: Aww... when the red rashes on my handsome face will go away?
Hao got fever last Saturday evening. We were in Port Dickson for a short CNY trip at that time. Since I did not bring any fever medicine with me, we came back to KL right after the dinner. I would not want to take any risk in case the fever shoot up in the middle of the night. And I think I made the right choice of cut short of trip.
Good thing I always have a bottle of fever medicine on standby at home. The fever come and goes until Monday. Then it came back again in the evening and finally no more fever on Tuesday. So I thought he will be alright.
On Wednesday morning, when I was breastfeeding him, I noticed many red spots all over his face. Cannot be such many mosquito bites. Immediately I suspect he got the Roseola. Lynn was contacted with Roseola when she was about 9-10 months old too. It's the same symptoms - several days of high fever, followed by a distinctive rash just as the fever breaks.
We took him to the doctor and confirmed it's Roseola. Doctor gave some lotions to apply to his body and another medicine for the allergy and itchiness. The rash will last for few days. Due to this, I have to cancelled the CNY visiting to one of my primary schoolmate house this Saturday. More important is Hao get well soon.

Started Hao with baby cereal with he was 6 months old. So far after 2-3 weeks of feeding, Hao started not showing interest in taking the cereal anymore. Instead of open his mouth wide for the food, he started to use his tongue to push out the food, keeping his mouth closed etc. So I have to keep trying to figure out his taste and his preference.
Started feeding him with the porridge during the CNY. So far so good. He was able to finish up to half bowl of the porridge. I noticed that he preferred the more watery type of the porridge.
No change on his milk intake. Still the same amount every 2 hours. In fact the babysitter said nowadays Hao took longer time to finish the milk.
Other than able to crawl, Hao still not able to sit unaided by himself yet though he prefers to sit rather than lying down. During bathing, he no longer splashing the water with his hands and kicking with his legs. Instead both his hands will grab at both sides of the baby bath tub tightly, as if he will fall down at anytime. He still like jumping and dancing at your laps whenever we hold him in upright position. He can move around with the walker and like to reach out for things to grab. However he would not like to sit long time in the walker. After about 20 minutes, he will start to make noise requested to be picked up. His stranger anxiety level still unpredictable. Sometimes he is OK with new people around and sometimes he will not and show the crying face.
As for his weight, as expected not gaining much. However I think as long as he is healthy, eat well, sleep well and grow well, I think the weight gain should not be an issue.
Weight: 8kg
