Busy August

This month of Aug was a period of highs and low...

Highs cos of birthday celebrations, eXplorer Kids, Tiffy celebrating Nday at School, National Day Celebrations at Heartlands, National Day Dinner, Opening of YOG rehearsal, baking class for parent and kid, clubbing/karaoke/movie with hb as part of my birthday celebrations and watching a musical-Fried Rice Paradise with mum and hb....

Low was Nat's diagnosis and her visits to PD and orthopedic.....tramatising for me at least....

Tip Toe Treatment

Natalie was diagnosed with tight archilles tendon on 3 Aug 2010, she is not able to flex her ankle fully 90degree, resulting that she has to tip toe even when standing. :(
I have been devastated when i first heard the news. I know that i have not been paying much attention to her, have been 'throwing' her in the walker for more than neccessary....had it not been our auntie who alerted us to this problem, I would probably not notice anything wrong with that and delayed treatment.....It has been nearly a month since the diagnosis...and the terrible guilt still lingers.


She is now 3 weeks into the treatment (1st serial casting started on 13 Aug 2010), we just pray that tmr's review will bring good news, that she will get well very very soon.


Little Nat Nat lives her life normally, still crawling, still cruising around, even attempting to stand leaning against the wall. And still as naughty as ever, snatching toys from her sisters, 'scolding' ppl, tapping on our face or wherever to get our attention, commanding that we do this and that for her.

Happy 1st Birthday to Natalie (Part 1)

We had a mini birthday celebration for our darling princess, Natalie. She has turned 1!
The house was decorated with Hello Kitty themed party stuff.
We put up a big Happy 1st Birthday banner up as a backdrop, decorated with balloons.

Bought some Hello Kitty balloons filled with helium to be given to the children :)
And a bouquet of Hello Kitty balloons for our birthday girl.
Po Po dropped by early to help with the cooking..she helped mummy to fry a wok of delicious mushroom rice, fishballs (which were a hit with the girls and gone before we even realise) and mixed vegetables (served in the big claypot), and we also ordered some other dishes like Sushi party set, 933 curry chicken, 933 ginseng salted chicken to complete the mini buffet spread.

A very pretty Hello Kitty themed birthday cake ordered from Pine Gardens!
and here is our little birthday princess :)
