Joo can read!



Joo can recognise few numbers since last month and now, she can recognise no 1 to 10! I m not a good and consistent GD mother so I can't say much whether GD helps but Barney definately helps a lot! Recently, we took out her alphabet mat and re lay them out in the study room again (we kept it coz she likes to bite them at once...). Mil and I started teaching her on ABC. Now, she can read A,B,C, H,J (for BJ), R (her name), L and O. haha. Now, whenever she sees words on poster or books, she'll point and want us to read to her and she'll follow. It's real fun seeing her learning fast!

Not feeling well.....


Joo was not well the past week. She had fever on Wednesday (38.5) and vomitted. Mil blamed Fil for 'dipping' her too long in the pool over the weekend....
I rushed back from office and brought her to see pead. We got a very 'cold' pead (no interaction with kids at all) who just gave her normal pink liquid and charged me (well, charged my company) RM65 for it. However, her fever was still on and off the whole evening.

Next day, I took half day coz it was Mil's check up day. Slept with Joo till 9am and she was cranky and cried. Still slight fever (37.6)....after drinking milk, she vomitted again. Got panic and rushed back to DSH...This time, we looked for Dr Azizi. Medicine obviously the same but he was very patient and gentle. He gave a 3-day antibiotic coz Joo's throat was infected already.....Bill was RM120!

Joo was well and active again on Friday....I sent Mil off to pudu and Joo stayed with mommy again in the office from 5-8pm till daddy came and pick us up for dinner. At night, fever came back again.... Struggled with another round of medicine....

Saturday, we had breakfast and lunch and 3 of us slept thru the whole afternoon. She couldn't eat fried or oily food so we decided Japanese! Joo's appetite was good and she took 6 little cucumber sushi in a roll! she loves Jap food i.e seaweed, soba and handroll....

We shopped in the Curve and reached home at 10.30pm. Another tragic incident happened! We found big red patch at the back of her tigh! It was not like rashes but more of blood clot patches. She has rashes (like 'fong-mok') the day before and now it's at the exact place. We took her to a 24-hr clinic nearby and doctor also could tell what it was. I suspect it was food allergy but it was not the first time she took Japanese + seaweed. Maybe it's the juice of raw fish?

Now, Mil is back and seems that Joo has running nose and phlegm pulak....aiyo, this girl, have all sickness at one go!
