Post fever

"Mommy, no more fever! Yay!"

A happy Beanie post fever. ;)

Beanie's high fever subsided on friday and then a scary-looking rash broke out. Started with her neck and within the next day, the rash had spread to her torso, arms and legs.

A helpful friend, who is also a mommy indicated that this is a classic sign of Roseola, as long as the fever has subsided, Beanie should recover soon. And recover, she did.

Now I understand the anxiety a parent faces when the child is sick. Luckily Beanie recovers in time for our first family trip - Bangkok. Cant wait for Friday!

Little Beanie goes swimming

Whenever time and weather permits, we will bring Beanie out for a swim. This little girl is fearless, she absolutely has NO fear of water. She will dive head down to the water and happily start paddling around like a puppy. It is very very cute to watch!

Unfortunately, for the very first time, she is down with high fever and diarrhea. So no swimming for her this weekend. I really hope she can get well soon. To cuddle her burning, little body worries me a lot.

Get well soon Little Beanie! And Mommy will bring you out for a swim once you are well ok?

Nanny Woes

A quick update about Beanie: Her 2nd nanny has just resigned last week, merely 1.5 weeks into the job, the 2nd nanny has also quit on me.

As usual, Beanie's separation anxiety and incessant cryings were too much for the 2nd nanny to bear and she decided to take the easy way out by accepting another couple's offer to take care of a 3mth old baby instead.

Ugh.

So I've decided to place Beanie in an Infantcare instead. I do not have much of a choice. Sigh...

I'm trying to work out a schedule where my in-laws can take care of Beanie from morning to about 1 pm, and then the old folks will then bring Beanie to the Infantcare center for the 2nd half of the day.

I seriously hope that this arrangement will out. Im at my wit's end already. ;(

Beanie says MaMa... ...

Passport photos for Beanie

Good shot! Opps... where is the white background? Ok, retake.

Hmmm... not bad. Let's see whether we can get a better picture.

"ahh... mommy, where are you? where? where? where?"

"Are we done yet, mommy?"

So Hub has a wedding to attend in Bangkok in May and after much discussion, we have decided to bring Beanie along... ... *tremble in fear*

I seriously hope we will not regret our decision to let her tag along. Just the thought of packing her luggage is enough to send shivers down my spine. And the fact that we will be stuck with her in a confined space for a grand total of 3 hours is already making me weak in my stomach.

May the force be with me... and the poor souls who will be taking the same plane with us!

In anycase, we have to make a passport for Beanie, so we spent last Friday trying to get a decent mug shot. Thanks to our dear friend, D who helped to take a few shots for us.

Our very first family trip!
