Lit' Reia turns 1

Oh my, how time flies, my lit girl is 365 days Old!

Happy Birthday Reia Tan!

Despite the fact that she has running nose and fever last night, I made up my mind to bring her out simply cos its her birthday! Moi not gg to let her spend her birthday and my labour day at home. Period!

Initial plan was to go to the Zoo, but the crummy weather spoiled our plans

Anyways, I promised my colleagues to show-off my girl, so we brought her to my workplace. My colleagues actually bought cakes & pressie for her.

Sweet!

/* in one of the meeting room*/

they complained that my girl wheezing sound is quite serious, and advised me to bring her to see doc. One of my colleague recommended Reia to seek help from TCM since he bought his son there and it's quite effective. So we decided to bring her to Yu Ren sheng @ tiong bahru Plaza.

/*this is Qi yi sheng checking on Reia*/
Some of the 名言 she made
“陈芮雅，这名字真好听”
“哎哟，这小孩真可爱！”
“有些小孩，小时候长得好看，可是大了就变了样。我看这个小孩，是越长越漂亮”

Total bill $38.52.
cheap cheap

Hope her lit' body can recover faster with the help of chinese medicine!

Next stop, we went to Jacob Ballas @ botanic garden.

Nothing much, quite boring actually, the water playground was pretty small. We completed touring ard within half-an-hour.

Lastly, we went back to my mom's place and held another "cake"-cutting ceremony. It's actually the agar-agar i ordered during the last sat birthday bash. hah, blessing in disguise, else she will have those normal cake for today.

Congratulations Reia!

You are Official One!

Post-Pinky Party Bluezz

My rainbow pool i rented was spolit :(

The rainbow had a big hole in it.... I have to buy the rainbow pool at Retail price @ $64

Luckily the pool still intact just that there's no rainbow over it. Will buy some balls for Reia to play in it!

Can you believe she did not receive any Toys for her birthday???!! Ok, only 2!

The rest are either dresses/clothings or Angpows!

Isnt it Wonderful!

Here's my lit Reia opening up her pressies.

& of Course the mess I've to clean Up

Things that made the party not that purfect

1) Rainbow pool was spolit!

2) I forgotten to distribute the party hat!

3) The agar agar was not served, still in my fridge!

4) Ros yiyi complained too lit photos, and din take much of Reia's solos.

5) Photos were not that well-taken.

6) Reia was a bit grouchy & sticky

It Was a BASH!

Finally, Reia's birthday party was over. Her bash was indeed a bash. Lit' Princess was happy, Hub and me were happy, Everyone was happy... made all preparation so worthwhile.

Dont ask me how much i spent.. there's only one 1st birthday in a lifetime. and Im glad we did this party for her :)

~*~*A brief recap of today's excitement~*~*

Early in the Morning ard 9 plus, after I'd fed reia her milk, hub sent her to my mom's plc so that we could go and pick up our helium tanks and cake. We headed straight to Party City @holland, thinking we could have our lunchie there, but we couldnt find any parking lot so we just collected the tanks and went off to AMK to collect our cake. Undeniably, i was a bit bit disppointed abt the 3-tier pinkie cake. The design was nice but the execution of the cake was not up to my expectation. oh well, sis said my expectation was too high....We safely delivered the 5kig cake back to our home and started to fill up all our balloons with the helium. It was so fun.... hub filling up the balloons while i tied the balloons with the curly string...Not long after... the house was filled with ard 80 over balloons and we only used up one tank! the other tank was still intact and cldnt be refunded. Should have gotten more balloons!! *duh*

Guests began to arrive at 6pm.. slowly enveloping the house with fun & laughter

Ard 8pm, we had our cake-cutting ceremony followed by photo-taking session. I had requested all my family members to wear in Pink too.

Guests loved the cake, especially the lychee martini, and the black forest actually has some alcohol in it too. I bet all the kiddos have a good night sleep today :p

The whole party ended ard 10 plus, and my lit princess was totally wasted after being such a good host!

*muack muack*

A lit BiT of EvEryThing

Today, me and hub went to pick Reia from school. The feelings of picking her up is so much happier then sending her to school - a form of abandonment.. i feel. Therefore, for the past months, hub was the one who send her to school - I choosed not to follow.


Anyways, when we reached there, my poor reia was sitting inside her cot, both legs dangling out of the cot, both hands holding on to the bar.... looking pitifully through the gaps... The caregiver saw us and quickly explained... "我们刚刚放她进去“then the caregiver further add-on "她会打人“ I was totally speechless... 心想：拜托。。打人？？！！！she's probably trying to pat the baby. how would a baby know anything abt strength-control??!! Not to mention the type of porridge they provided. hub saw it... and described to me... 唉，我的宝宝真可怜！Trust me.. The lesser you know... the better.


Since we managed to reach home before the sun set, we decided to bring her to see another PD for 2nd opinion since her last treatment I did not see any improvement. Moreover her coughing is back and there's a great potential she will get bronchitis again. This Dr Vanessa is Good. She explained to me a lot of things... and nose-bleeding for a baby less than a year old is not a good sign she said. One episode could probably be luck... 4 episodes for the past 11 mths said something abt her. Nose bleeding could means she would probably get asthma.. which the doc said i must monitor closely... shall see... Sept is coming.... the time of the month....


PD concluded.... She's has nose allergy.. lung allergy... Skin allergy...
She has a lit bit of everything...


I just pray she will get well and be pretty this Sat!


God bless my lit Reia
