Bento kits from PediaSure Complete

Friday 18 July 2008 @ 5:29 pm

Marcus is having PediaSure milk powder few months ago. It comes in yummy chocolate and vanilla flavours. I let him try the vanilla flavours and he likes the taste much. With this milk, his daily nutrition can still be complete even when he doesn’t eat the way I want him to.

I got these bento kits free when I purchse PediaSure. I’m yet to try it until today. I got to know that some of the blogger mummies are into bento fun recently, so I also would like to try too for my kid. LOL!!!  

Egg shapers, cheese/bread cutters

This is the result what I prepared for Marcus as breakfast this morning. Gosh, not attractive, huh? He was shocked to see bread turned into bear shape, cheese turned into fish and bird shape. Another one is an egg, but I can’t mould it out as bear shape as the egg (kampung egg) is too small. I’m glad that he ate what I prepared for him. 

I’m thinking to buy more bento kits and books to learn if I have time. :-P It is fun to prepare the kid’s meal even though it takes time. I want to make sure that he eat healthily every day.




August in Langkawi ?

Wednesday 16 July 2008 @ 4:30 pm

Hubby planned to go for a vacation in Langkawi next month. I stopped him as we will go to Bangkok in September. Even though we like travel, but I don’t hope at that time. Well, it is fun travel with family and friends as we can have the precious moment to get together. Besides visit to those tourist attractions, we can enjoy those delicious local food.

Just like we went to Penang last Sunday, we can’t pay much attention to our kid as hubby and I were busy craving the lovely dish at Gurney Drive hawker stalls. Hubby ate quite a lot that day. It was unusually good appetite for him. I better let him take Phentermine without prescription.

Well, there are many delicious Thai food in Bangkok which my friend planned to take us. I guess we will gain weight for that few days tour in Bangkok. LOL!!!




Special and colorful recipes

Wednesday 25 June 2008 @ 6:10 pm

Sometimes I do cook porridge for Marcus besides taking rice. He doesn’t have much appetize lately though he just get well from diarrhea last week.  I’m thinking some special and colorful recipes for him and hopefully he will get back his appetize like before. I think he is too bored with his current meal I cook for him.

Most of the time he will take carrots, potatoes, salmon, fish, eggs, chicken, meat. He doesn’t like to eat meat and vegetables. That is why he has difficulty in poo even though he drinks fruits juice and eat fruits every day. I found some mummies decorate their kids’ meal with vegetables and meat in cartoon. It’s so nice and colourful, my saliva drip when I see the pictures. LOL!!!

I shall learn from them and change Marcus’s daily recipes in different way.




Get well from diarrhea

Wednesday 18 June 2008 @ 5:11 pm

Finally my boy fully recover from diarrhea. It broke my heart to see him pee every hour last week. Most kids hate and scare to take any medicines. It was a hard time for Marcus when comes to medicine time. Well, talking about medicine, I was shocked when my friend told me that a small clinic charged her over hundred ringgit just for her kids’ medicines. Everything also increase like freak nowadays, I wonder how about those who come from low income family ?

My kid’s paediatrician also inceased his consultation fees. I can’t understand thought they only give services to patients.  But I was surprised when I see him using a PDA medical software from Epocrates. LOL!!! This software is now used by over 500,000 healthcare professionals. I think it is a must for them as it provides clinical information and support tools that enable healthcare professional to have access to medical information easily.

This announcement was paid for by Epocrates.




My sick boy

Wednesday 11 June 2008 @ 1:43 pm

Marcus is having fever after back from breakfast yesterday. His nose bleed just make me freak out last weekend, and now I have my heartbreak with his temperature up and down in between 37.5′C and 38.5′C. Besides that, he is having diarrhea too. Oh, poor little boy !!! His body was rather warm. I gave him some paraceptamol syrup which I bought from phamarcy. But it seemed not much help.

Mummy, I’m pain pain ……

Hubby and I brought him to visit his paediatrician even though his fever is back to normal, but still having diarrhea. Back at home and gave him medicine. It’s another hard time as he refuses to take it and cries for “gai gai”. Gosh, brought him out to buy some vegetables.

He is taking his nap now and I have some times to update my post here. He needs to drinks lots of water, juices. The paediatrician even suggested to give him 100 plus. He asked me if my kid has medical insurance, in case he has to admit to hospital if he still diarrhea tomorrow. *touch wood* 




Sensitive nose

Thursday 29 May 2008 @ 5:32 pm

I brought Marcus to see paediatrician as he had his nose bleeding for 2 times weeks ago. I thought he is having fever with high temperature, but I was wrong. He is actually having sensitive nose. He likes to rub his nose and that is why it is easy to cause him nose bleeding especially when he is down with flu.  

Doctor said it’s a small matter among kids, but if he continues nose bleeding every week, then he must go for blood test. The doctor even advised that he is better not to sleep in air-cond room. Gosh, I don’t think he can sleep well without air-cond.

I’m thinking to get a IQAir air purifier to place it in my bedroom. It improves indoor air quality and help relieve allegry and asthma symptoms. Hopefully it will help.




Flabby tummy

Sunday 11 May 2008 @ 1:57 pm

As usual, we went to my parents’ house every Sunday. My mother was shocked when she looks at hubby flabby tummy. I admitted that he is getting fat and flabby these days because he doesn’t have enough exercise. Somemore he is wearing a shirt with horizontal lines today, so it is so obvious too see his flabby tummy.

I wonder if he needs to go for liposuction, but I’m sure he won’t even though it’s free for him. May be I should get him the most famous diet pills if he wants. I hope he will not gain weight again during our trip to Gold Coast next week or else I will force him to take those diet pills. LOL!!!




Giant waiter

Tuesday 6 May 2008 @ 2:59 pm

I went to have breakfast at Kopitiam with Marcus and my mother in law this morning. We are the regular customers and therefore most of the waitresses known us well. Marcus told me that he is scared and pointed to one of the waiter there. Wow, he is so fat just like a dinosour.I chatted with one of the waitress and got to know that he is having weight loss pills for more than a year, but seem no improvement. May be I should recommend him Generic Acomplia. It is not just as a powerful tool for weight loss, but also helps those who are obese to regain their health.

Besides that, it works on receptors in the brain to block cravings for food and some other substances. I hope he can success his weight loss plan or else I dont think Marcus will go there again.




Time to keep fit

Tuesday 15 April 2008 @ 8:32 pm

Hubby was back from Shen Zhen, China and he gained 2kg for just 4 days. He has heavy meals most of the time and forgot about his detox plans. I better watch out his weight and I don’t like fat man with big tummy. Well, it’s time for him to keep fit or else how can he has energy and play with Marcus? So, the detox plan and exercises are working now and then.

But then having simple exercises not enough for him. I should get some home fitness equipment for him from AllegroMedical.com. It is one of the largest retailer which also provides home health care and medical equipment. Well, I can play with it too even though I have my yoga and pilates twice a week. With so much exercises, I think that should be good for hubby and I.




Flu, please go away

Friday 11 April 2008 @ 8:39 pm

My kid still down with slight flu and he starts coughing already. I know that it’s hard for kids to recover fast if they have running nose. This has been dragged for 3 days. Well, I can see he is getting well, but he just can’t sleep well at night. I’m the only one who sleep with him and hoping hubby will come back from his business trip as soon as possible. I’m tired and sleepless. :(

He had no appetite these days, just have bread and milk instead of rice. I’m worried he doesn’t get enough nutrition, so I went to organic shop to buy a pack of vegetable alphabets macaroni and tomatoes pasta souce. Hoping that he will get back his appetite. Well, I cooked for him and he liked it much, finished all and still craving for it. :) I’m thinking to cook mushroom souce with broccoli and carrot for him tomorrow. Oh, yummy !!!




Having bad flu

Thursday 10 April 2008 @ 12:39 pm

Marcus is having flu after back from KL trip last week. I didn’t bring him to see paed as I have bought flu syrup for him from pharmacy.  If he is still yet getting better, I shall bring him to paed. He looks tired and sleepy after taking the medicine, but he is still active and playful as normal when he wakes up.

He didn’t sleep well last 2 nights, so am I. Feeling sad and heartbreak when he keeps rubbing his nose. Hubby also worried about Marcus and he got flu too before he goes to KL yesterday. Hopefully everthing is well after he comes back from Shen Zhen, China this coming Sunday.   




Healthy snacks

Friday 4 April 2008 @ 2:51 pm

I guess most kids like snacks food, so does my kid. I don’t allow him to eat those junk food and colourful sweets. So, I went to organic and pharmacy shop to look for some healthy snacks for him. He likes raisins and goat sweets very much, but I control him not to take too many per day.

I chose these snacks be a part of his balanced diet besides fruits, meat, fish and vegetables. Besides that, I will give him cakes, yogurt, bread, cookies as in between meal.

Raisins and goat’s milk sweets

These snacks will always in my luggage bag whenever we go travel. Later, I will go out and buy the raisins and gost’s milk sweets again as to bring along to KL tomorrow. So, what healthy snacks do you give for your kids ??  :)




Special treat ?

Wednesday 26 March 2008 @ 5:25 pm

Hubby called me that he would like to go out for dinner with Marcus and I yesterday. I asked him why suddenly want to eat out, though it’s not our wedding annivesary, birthday or etc. He replied to me just a treat and he wants to spend more time with us. May be he realised that he is too busy with his business and seldom be with us lately ??? LOL!!!

Most of the time he will take his meals outside and without doing any exercises. That’s why everyone said that he is pregnant. He doesn’t like to take any daily supplements, but I forced him to take for his good. As for Hydroxycut diet supplement, I think he doesn’t need it at this moment.




Curious as to learn more

Tuesday 25 March 2008 @ 1:19 pm

Hubby brought Marcus and I went to Jusco before he goes out to meet his customers last night. While hubby brought Marcus to go for kids’ rides, I went to Popular bookstore to look for some magazines. I saw three elders standing at one corner to look for the same book and I was so curious and wanted to know about the book.

The book is about Tadalafil, I really don’t understand what is the word means until I took the book and read it. It is actually about viagra. May be they wanted to know more about the product and buy it to try later.




Getting rich, really?

Monday 24 March 2008 @ 3:45 pm

If you read my previous post, you know that my hubby and I went to visit friend’s house with our kid last weekend. Most of hubby friends are come from rich family, but not my hubby. But most of their friends said that he is the richest among them. They have their own family business, but hubby is not depends on his family. He works hard, earn money and invest into his business last year. Besides that, he is owning a shop lot now.

While we’re talking about kids, one of hubby’s friend noticed that hubby’s hair started going bald. I just have a look on it, it’s really!!! They laughed at hubby that he must be getting rich nowadays, as Chinese said 10 bald people and 9 of them are rich. What a good joke and of course I hope my hubby will become a millionaire too. But I worried about his hair as I don’t like bald men. So, I must think of a way to help him if, how about reverse hair loss effects with hair transplants?




Fever day

Wednesday 5 March 2008 @ 10:36 pm

Marcus is having fever today. I felt that his whole boday was hot but I still give him shower this afternoon. *slap head*. I measured his temperature and it made me worried for his high fever with 38.7 celcius. I gave him drink a lot of water as to cool down his body temperature.

When he saw my mother in law and me, he was so delighted, wanted us to carry him and refused to come down. Oh, poor little boy. Even though he’s not feeling well, but he still as active and playful like normal. I didn’t bring him to visit his GP and just let him to take medicine.

Hopefully he will get well tomorrow or else I will bring him to visit his GP.




Beware of this “strawberry quick”

Saturday 12 January 2008 @ 5:42 pm

I received an email from my friend yesterday. She told me not to buy or receive this kind of new drug known as “Strawberry Quick”.

There is a very scary thing going on in the schools right now that we all need to be aware of.

There is a type of crystal meth going around that looks like strawberry pop rocks (the candy that sizzles and ‘pops’ in your mouth). It also smells like strawberry and it is being handed out to kids in school yards. They are calling it strawberry meth or strawberry quick.

Kids are ingesting this thinking that it is candy and being rushed off to emergency in dire condition. It also comes in chocolate, peanut butter, cola, cherry, grape and orange.

Please instruct your children to not accept candy from strangers and even not to accept candy that looks like this from a friend (who may have been given it and believe it is candy).




For cerebral palsy child

Sunday 30 December 2007 @ 6:05 pm

Are you the parent of a child with cerebral palsy? It is a very sad thing happened for the tragedy families endure when a doctor’s error redults in a birth injury. It is advisable for the person who their child involved with cerebral palsy to seek Cerebral palsy attorney & birth injury lawyers for help.

They will represent the victims in obtaining compensation. Even though the compensation cannot undo a wrong, but it can provide support for families struggling with medical expenses associated with cerebral palsy, and can help provide peace of mind.




New Hope For Life

Friday 23 November 2007 @ 12:10 pm

I went to my parents house yesterday as I needed my mother to help me take care of Marcus. My mother in law was not at home and I have to go work in the afternoon. After I came back from my centre, my mother told me that her neighbour’s son who is 33 years old is currently a drug addiction. I was sad to hear that as he also one of my friend too. But after married, I seldom see him when I come back to my parents house.

He used to be a very hardworking and good guy, but don’t know what happened to him and he has changed a lot these 2 years. For what my mother told me, he is now unemploy and staying outside with his friends. Why he become another person lately?

I told my mother why not we suggest to our neighbour to sent him to Addiction Treatment center. They offer top-notch caring and professional therapists, and also pamper with luxurious amenities found in only the best 4 star hotels. He can even enjoy a healing massage, yoga and fitness instruction from private trainer, walks along their world-famous beaches in Malibu California, surfing, horseback riding, and peaceful meditation in our gorgeous gardens. These are all activities which can help him to get back his life.

I think we better tell his parents about the center. I hope that my friend will begin his new life in recovery.  




Hair Loss

Wednesday 24 October 2007 @ 9:50 pm

My uncle suffer from hair loss many years. He doesn’t has any health problem but keep on losing his hair. He needs to wear wig whenever he goes. Over the years, he had been go round places to seek for medication and hope that his hair will grow back. Whichever heard of people said which doctor or professional is good he will definitely go for a try.

He feel no comfortable to wear wig every where he goes. Everyone of us worry and try to help him out. I have been searching information or products lately. I found that there is a new product called provillus for those who already lost hair or prevent hair loss. This product is 94% successful. I’m thinking to buy one bottle of it for my uncle to have a try.




Back To Normal Shape

Monday 22 October 2007 @ 8:57 pm

I’m the person who care much about my weight and shape but not my hubby. Everyone says that I’m good with my 40kg weight now. No, I don’t think so, I want to gain for 5kg more as to fit and look nicer with new clothes. I can eat as usual but just can’t gain more weighs. Well, my hubby lost his shape and I want him to back to normal if possible.

So, I got to watch out my hubby shape every now and then. Even though I keep on telling him to watch his weight, but he still eating more though he has lots of entertainment with customers. May be I should get him colon cleanse after a heavy meal.




Children Need “This” - Pneumococcal Vaccine

Wednesday 22 August 2007 @ 8:45 am

Pneumococcal diease is an infection caused by the bacterium called Streptococcus pneumoniae, also known as pneumococcus. It occurs most commonly in children, particularly those under 2 years of age. This is what I worried about lately. Actually I knew about this vaccination early this year from my son’s paed. Since he needs injection almost every month, I then put this case aside till yesterday.

I met one of my yoga friend, who is a medical representative in ISH yesterday, She told me that it’s very important for children to have this injection. I asked doctor about this vaccination in detail as I thought to give Marcus for this vaccination soon. He needs to take 2 doses and each dose costs RM300. 

This disease can be very serious, it may cause permanent hearing loss, brain damage and death. So, if your children haven’t take this injection, do ask your doctor about this pneumococcal vaccination today.

A Brand New Look & Day

Monday 23 July 2007 @ 8:52 am

It’s been almost 10 years ago. My cousin’s a drug addict and not well educated. He got addicted to drug when he’s about 18 years old. I shouldn’t talk about him here thought it’s not a good news to expose it to others. I didn’t seen him many years ago and I was surprised and happy when I saw him during Chinese New Year this year. He looked like another new person with fresh look.

I want to share this out if those of your family or loved one who involved in drug addict. This is not the end of the day. My cousin always needed money to buy drug as to fed his addiction, he has been stealing for money and always went in and out from jail and drug rehab. He didn’t further his studies and doing nothing every day, just want money and buy drug. He really wasting all his youthful lfe and my uncle and aunty very sad to see their son become drug addict.

Though he has been in and out of rehab, but it doesn’t really help, I think he’s lack of his own self determination. They are many addicted to alcohol too beside drug. I have seen and known of people who totally rely on pain killers. They really can’t live without the drug and they are in a mess.

Do you know that addiction is a very serious social ills. There are many organization, be it profit and non profit, goverment or religious sector has try to set up resource to help these people. But most of them doesn’t have initiative to help or rescue themselves. However, there’s always light at the end of the tunnel. Just like 1800NoDrugs is a non profile referral service for you to seek painkiller addiction treatment.

So if you know of anyone who is facing the drug addiction, alcoholism or a drug relapse, as a family member or a friend, do encourage the individual to either fill in an online drug rehab assessment form or give a call to any counselor at 1-800-NO-DRUGS. You will be glad to know that help is available 24/7.

As a parents, we often very worried if our kid is also one of them. I totally hope this will not happen to me. I think education is the most important way to lead our kids to a proper path. But I was glad to see my cousin to begin his life with the brand new day now !!!

Friday 20 July 2007 @ 3:55 pm

My friend from US called me last month, we have chit chatted for almost one hour. She told me that she just moved to a new house with her hubby and kid. She has bought a waterbed for few years and recommended me to have one. It is not just comfortable surface for you to sleep on, but also regarded as one of the healthiest of sleeping on waterbed. My friend told me that her daughter likes to jump on her waterbed and sleep on it.

My Water Shop has been retailing for waterbeds and related products almost 30 years. They provide customers with top quality brand name and discount prices. Check out more information through the site if you are interested with waterbed and its accessories.
