MS & LS

ES and Mummy was back to Penang last Wednesday, after 1 1/2 weeks staying in Ipoh. When we went back home, MS was more pampered as she always comes to Mummy and ask mummy to carry her. Wheareas LS was more independent. She is happy when mummy play with her and does not demand more...

Trishaw

We went out for dinner for the first time ( first time went out without any function ) yesterday with the three angels. We expect babies will make noise during our dinner. But, to our suprise, both of the little angels behave quite well. LS was sitting on the high chair, busy surveying customers who are coming into the restaurant. While MS was carried by aunty Joy because the restaurant only have two high chair available. We had a good dinner, although we have to be quick.

After dinner, daddy brought us to Padang Kota Lama for a walk. We saw some trishaws and daddy got a beca riders to take us for one round. We are amazed that even the bus have to stop for the trishaw at the roundabout. But, it's quite dangerous though! Great experience as we always see people sitting in the trishaw where we didn't really have any experience sitting on it before...

There are about 200 trishaw in Penang which are mostly scattered around Georgetown area.

Penang trishaw comes in many names,Rickshaw,trishaw,taxicab or locally referred to as beca.The modern beca in Penang is a pedal-powered trishaw rather than one that’s pulled by runners.

ES is having chickenpox!!

Last Saturday, we brought ES for swimming as usual. She is not so willing to go. We wonder why... On the right bottom of her neck, there was a few red spots. Daddy said it is due to she fell down last few days. And Mummy noticed her upper part of the lips also a bit swollened.

On Sunday, when we are having breakfast. She complained her ears are painful. And i noticed there were few more red spots on her back. Oh!!! Mummy noticed one of the red spots was with fluid inside. It must be chickenpox!!!

ES must have explored to the virus from her school. As there are children in her school with chickenpox, but still coming to school. As we know that symptoms tend to appear 14 to 16 days after the initial exposure but can occur any time from 10 days up to 21 days after contact with the virus. According to the teacher, two students had chicken pox came to school during semester break, which is one week before this, without knowing they are having chickenpox.

Daddy took her to see dr and confirmed it is chicken pox. According to the paeds, patients are contagious up to five days (more commonly, one to two days) before and five days after the date that their rash appears. When the sores have crusted over, the person is usually no longer contagious. We are worried that it will spread to the two younger sisters. Mummy decided to bring her back to Ipoh for the time being.

Mummy and ES are back to Ipoh since last Saturday.She woke up off and on during Sunday night, think it was very itchy. Unconciously she wanted to scratch it, even Mummy already told her not to do that during daytime.

Mummy went to work till Thursday and took leave on Friday. She was in good hand with all the aunties and popo, gong gong. There are more red spots on her chest and back.

Till today, some of the blisters being crust over and just few of the red spots still with fluid inside. Thanks god she only have mild fever for one day...
