Ms Ashley

Ms Ashley 是佳佳在2008年上N1班的老师。 佳佳在她的教导下变得比较有耐心，比较会讲话，英文也有所提高。 可惜老师决定转换轨道，离开本幼儿园，另妈妈和佳佳都很是伤心。这里是跟老师的短信交流：

可以走路了

新的一年到了，雯雯满11个月了，她也已经学会走路了。走的也很稳，笑呵呵的从一个房间走去另一个，非常乐衷于这项刚刚学会的技能, 可用 "不愠不火，津津乐道" 来形容 ：p

Walking

在家里有时间，姥姥姥爷就会牵着雯雯的手让她学走路，今天早上姥姥说雯雯自己站稳再迈步的话，已经可以走4,5 步了！



Bintan Trip 17-18 Dec

my parents are here!

星期五半夜，姥姥姥爷从成都飞过来了， 准备在这里小住1，2个月，看看佳佳雯雯也帮帮我们。
以下是爸爸去机场接他们时发回来的短信：
13 Dec
12:44 airport very cold
12:45 Plane just landed
1:06am still don't see them
1:10 I saw them
1:20 still waiting for baggage
1:55 they are here !


雯雯这两天也成长的很快，咿咿呀呀，爸爸妈妈，已经很想讲话了。 经常眯着眼，咧着小嘴，笑嘻嘻的， 非常讨人开心 ：）

Disney Live! Three Classic Fairy Tales

we brought jiajia to see her very first stage performance the past Sunday(oh she will be participating in her first school concert also on 16 Dec). Three Classic Fairy Tales presented by Disney Live! at Singapore Indoor Stadium from 18-23 Nov. She surely loves it,and want to see more of it, in fact she want "5" princes (palm open, all 5 fingers up)!

Three Classic Fairy Tales begin with Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy embarking on an unexpected quest and find a magical storybook hidden in Mickey’s attic. The four pals curiously turns the pages and discover Snow White as she searches for her one true love, Cinderella getting ready for her magical night at the ball and Belle from Beauty and the Beast as she finds happiness in the most unusual place.

3rd teeth and Children's garden

大概11月10号，爸爸发现雯雯上颚的小牙又发出来一颗，这可是第三颗 ：）

丽娟介绍11月9日星期天在植物园的儿童乐园（Jacob ballas children's garden ）有嘉年华会，我们也带着佳佳雯雯去游玩。 天气听闷热的，人也很多，有很多小朋友呢。 最后我们决定让佳佳雯雯玩喷泉，又凉爽又刺激。 雯雯可是第一次呢（ 不过2个星期以前，我们的雯雯刚刚第一次游泳，表现很不错）。

9 个月

雯雯从9个月大 （也就是11月初）已经可以真正的自己拿着奶瓶喝奶了 ：）

11月4日去做9个月成长例行检查，小可爱的各项指标仍然保持相当高的水平 （均在90% 以上）。 且不说她上此感冒之后，体重在近期没有显著增加。

[护士阿姨发现妈妈在体重表上多画了一条虚拟线条, 笑着说：你真是有意思！因为雯雯的体重总是在线外呀， 为了准确表示， 当然得加多一条曲线喽 :P ]

Crawling and shaking her head for fun

by end Oct, wen wen can crawl very well and quite fast. she also tries to push her self up, and can sit down steadily afterwards.

around mid last week, say 29 Oct night, while playing with her I saw she shaking her head from left to right again and again, grining at the same time (with 2 little white teething shining below) - she seemed to enjoyed this new game ver much ! and she doesn't seem to feel dizzy after shaking and shaking :)

病毒感冒

从10月初开始，妈妈雯雯佳佳接连生病。雯雯和我开始先是流鼻涕，接着我就喉咙肿痛发炎，请了2天半的病假吃了一个星期的消炎药总算有起色， 这期间雯雯确实一直不好，看了两次医生，每天晚上睡外面客厅（没空调），坚持吃药可还是一直流鼻涕，后来听上去是呼吸都有些急促，咳嗽，痰很多， 到了10月11号 我听着她的呼吸时带有声音（wheezing 喘鸣），感觉就是气管炎，于是就决定带雯雯去看 KK的急诊。医生诊断下来 （包括拍X光片），果真是有呼吸道发炎，就幼儿来讲，叫做毛细支气管炎 （bronkilitis), 开了两大瓶的阿莫西灵消炎药， 以及流鼻涕，止咳（扩张气管）的药， 林林总总。带她看急症的决定真是明智，再拖下去可能就会变哮喘了。 好在当时她的血液氧气饱和度 还不错（99%），低于95% 就得住院了。渐渐的， 雯雯总算好了起来，到了10月20日应该算是痊愈了。


且说佳佳，也是与此同时 腿部又开始起红斑瘙痒， 并扩展到手臂，甚至脸上都有一点，看着事态严重，爸爸也在10月11日星期六早上带她去看皮肤专家 （Dr. Loke). 其实她的问题是满普遍的，叫atopic eczema 遗传性过敏皮炎/特应性湿疹， 是血球的问题，要治愈不大可能，不过瘙痒发完后可能会自行消退乃至断根。医生开了药膏用于止痒，不过没有口服药。搽了几天后总算消下去了。

再说说我，忙着照顾晚雯雯后，居然又被雯雯传染了，开始咳嗽发炎，还好医生开了较强的抗生素， 几天下来就差不多了。

可是。。。又轮到了佳佳，不知因为痰的问题，还是肠胃的问题，今天早上喝了奶后吐奶，早上在学校又吐了两次。。。又得看医生了。希望她早些好。

妈妈的决定：等她俩好了后，一定都得去打流感预防针！

自己会拿奶瓶了！

雯雯9月底已经会自己拿着奶瓶喝奶了。

上个周末爷爷奶奶过来了。星期天还给佳佳雯雯剪了一下头发，都很可爱呀！

teeching

Spotted her two little teeth coming out last Thu night, while visiting doctor Chia at hougang central. That is so fast! Jiajia teething was at 8mth of age. :)

Wen wen had quite bad flu since Thu and till now (Tue) still not well, runny nose, cough, coarse throat, she had it all. Poor wen wen, hope you recover soon!

KL trip

30 Aug - 2 Sep, we went back to daddy's hometown puchong near KL. It is a packed trip including 2 family get-together dinners, visit to auntie's house, visit to sis's Art & Craft exhibition at Central Annexe, jiajia play sesseion at IOI mall and trip to Genting. Jia Jia really enjoyed herself at the train/boat rides in Genting first world indoor theme park (me & hubby and mother and wenwen accompany her) and it is the first time the sisters enjoyed a natural cooling weather of 20 degrees only. :)

Wen wen also get to taste some new food, like jared baby food (pumpin& sweet potato), banana, water melon juice, bread, char siew pau skin, plain porriage, etc. Her palate is more diversified now and she is more willing to open her mouth to what ever food sent to her mouth :p

苹果与李子

8月21日，雯雯第一次品尝苹果（汁）之后几天，也有品尝李子的果肉。 看她耸肩瞪眼的样子真是很有趣 :P

To the zoo on Sunday 17 Aug

last Sunday we went to the zoo! together with hubby's parents (who came over from Kl to help bro in law move house..) it's a warm & humid morning, but it's the first time wen wen visited zoo and for my in law it's a re-visit after almost 30 years...

佳佳这两个星期在幼儿园总是很粘我，要抱抱，不舍得我走开去上班。记得以前她可不是这样的啊，早上很爽快地就走进最多就是傍晚接她幼儿园里面去找老师或者小朋友。而平时也是粘爸爸比较多。不管怎样，做父母的确实应该给孩子无尽的关爱， 尤其是当他们有年幼的弟弟妹妹。

shanti老师说雯雯很喜欢吃粥（昨天是鱼粥，aunti 会把粥搅拌到细幼）。她在幼儿园一般是8，9 点钟吃糊糊，然后11，12点吃粥， 下午再喝两次奶。妈妈要记得给雯雯磨江鱼仔粉，好在吃粥的时候加上一点，增添口味以及补充钙质，就象当年给佳佳姐姐一样。

两姐妹呢很亲近，佳佳姐姐喜欢亲亲妹妹，或是拿玩具给妹妹，而雯雯则喜欢看姐姐的一举一动，姐姐跑跑跳跳 她也会跟着笑。妈妈爸爸看了真是心中充满暖意。

近况

佳佳7月28日晚上在家里第一次于坐式马桶里小便成功

雯雯7月底开始也会在走步机里滑来滑去，并且会晤里哇啦的说话了

妈妈从8月1 日起已经减少了给雯雯喂奶的数量， 在办公室里也没有挤奶了，家中也就是早晚各1 次，总量为以前的1/4

近况

雯雯现在可以待在走步机里几个钟头，也可以坐在床上，床垫上坐半个小时不成问题。

佳佳姐姐在幼儿园也开始了potty training，据说大多数时候都不用包尿布了，需要时会跟老师示意。看来在家里我们也要加油跟进了，可能要买个小小的马桶坐垫。
佳佳也喜欢问：（为什）么？就是会省略前两个字，哈哈 ：）
对了，记录一个重要的里程碑，从7月17日起，佳佳开始穿小底裤了 （当然为了保险起见，睡觉的时候还是穿回尿布）。

最近爸爸在妈妈的提议下开始把以前拍的录像带转录到DVD刻录机的硬盘上。我们也趁机重温了佳佳和雯雯小时候的片断。 小时候的样子真的不一样哦，她们姐妹两个还是长得有些相似，叫声更是接近。 希望将来是一对姐妹花 ：）

雯雯第一次吃米糊糊

妈妈等到雯雯刚好5个半月， 好开始让她吃辅食。其实老师都已经提醒过一两次了。妈妈特意买了新的小碗，勺子则是以前佳佳用过的。还有Henz的米糊。Ms Alice用两小匙的米糊掺奶粉准备了适量糊糊，第一勺还象征性的让妈妈来喂。 送到雯雯嘴边谁料她还挺怕的，一直想用手挡开，老师坚持耐心的喂她，而且每一勺只送很少量，雯雯总算慢慢得不怎么怕了， 不过糊糊在嘴边转转，吃进去的并不多。毕竟这只是一个开始吧。雯雯加油！

5个月

雯雯5个月打预防针时的检查结果：
体重：9.106kg （超过97% percentile)
身长：58cm （大概90% percentile)
头围：45.5cm （超过97% percentile)
真是个可爱胖妞，希望再长高一点：）

Jia Jia moving to N1 class and Wen Wen can turn over now

Recently childcare teacher has shared with me jiajia is more mature now and can graduate from PN class and go to N1. So 1 July is the first day. How is jiajia coping? Let's see what her form teacher has reported:

Also, on the same morning, we are all sitting in the car on the way to childcare and some romantic music is on air: Eternal Love (I am giving you my love, my eternal love) suddenly I felt so emotional, as I hold my baby wen wen's hand. As the song perfectly described my mood. My love for my child is indeed eternal and gentle & beautiful as the song.

On a separate note, jiajia's favorite barney water bottle broke today. But to my pleasant surprise she could say huai liao 坏了, and when I bring out a new one, she also said xin de 新的! Waw, she really can express herself now, though in short phrases. :)

2 July Wed, wen wen teacher Ms shanty said wen wen somehow picked up the pacifier by herself and popped into her mouth, then felt asleep in the afternoon. I also noticed she is able to turn over by herself now and placed her arms nicely. Wen Wen is so capable now! :)
