Caden has diarrhea

We are now at united square having breakfast at Xing Wang hong kong cafe. Caden just visited doc ong. He had been having diarrhea for the past few days. He has been on tcm medication for a few days but to no improvement. So we decided to switch him back. Caden has been waking up a few times at night to poo. It heart wrenching to see him cry and poo. So heart breaking. But our little prince as usual is still in his usual happy self when he woke up. That ease up a bit, but we know it's still a torture to him. Get well soon our dear.

Caden's 2 years old birthday!!!

26th Feb 2010, 2 years since Caden first lay his sight on this world. Yes, it’s our little prince birthday. He is 2 years old today. I took leave specially to company him today. Though dear is not able to take the day off as she has an event going on in school, she still managed to request to be free in the morning.
Today we decided to bring Caden out for breakfast. Dear decides to go to MacDonald’s at Bras Basah Complex. While ordering our food, Dear told the crew that its Caden’s birthday and if there’s anything special treats for birthday boy. They were nice to say yes and got us to go to our table first while they prepare. And true enough, after we settled down for a while, the shift manager brought up a nicely decorated hot cakes, with the words, Happy Birthday written on it.

They even gave him a Happy Meal box with a transformer toy inside. Caden was so happy to see all these and can’t wait to dig his teeth in to the yummy hot cakes. He also has a nice time playing on his new transformer toy.
Next we decided to go to Swenson Bugis to reserve tables for his celebration with Dear’s friends tonight. But we were very disappointed by the attitude given by the manager. He keep insisting that they do not do any reservations. And eventually when they did after my pressing, he said we are not allowed to decorate the chairs with balloons. That really pissed us off and we decided against having our dinner there. And all these while, there were no sense of apology from the manager and to add to that, he even give a very stuck up face. Well done, Swenson has just lost some customers. I swear I will not hold any celebrations there ever again.
So with a dejected heart, we went to the second storey of bugis junction and saw this nice little restaurant that we have not tried before. NYDC is its name. We proceeded to check with the counter staff if it’s possible to reserve seats for the evening. No problem, was the reply. What a good start to the conversation. Then we asked further questions like is it possible for us to decorate the place with balloons and this and that. Totally no issues with them at all! My god, what a stark difference from stinking Swenson. It’s like finding water in the dessert. And so, we settled everything in NYDC and glad to make the choice.
After which, dear went back to work and Caden went back to rest. And me, I went to NYDC to passed them some foil balloons and also went back home at Eunos to settle some housework.
2 hours later, I am back at home and ready to bring caden to dear’s school to pick her up.
As it was raining, I booked a cab. Once we were there, we went to the auditorium to find dear. But she was not around. Amusingly, her students were still around and seeing him, they all started singing Happy Birthday to him at the count of 3. It was indeed nice and kind of the students. Caden was happy and also surprised to have so many people singing the birthday song to him. Then dear came along, we waited for her to settle some stuff before rushing down to NYDC Bugis.
Before we reached, Fanling and Lishan ah-yi were both there waiting for us already. I looked at the place, it was really nicely done up with balloon on every seats and also some on the wall. Waiter and waitresses were absolutely friendly and also attentive. Food was very good also. Especially when Caden enjoys his fish, pasta and meat. And at the end of the dinner, they even gave us a discount and a cake because one of the gal there was a student that me and dear once teach.

After dinner we all went home. What an enjoyable night.

Visit to Second Grandaunt House

After Caden woke up from his nap, deardear and I brought him to my second aunt's house at Clementi, as my second aunt called for this gathering for new year. This is the second time he has visit my second aunt's house. He seems to like the piano the most in the house, kept running into the room to play the piano.

My second aunt purposely bought loads of cod fish for Caden. We ended up have to packet some uncooked cod fish back... SO pai sei. My youngest aunt even has to buy a ball for him to play. Just a short stay at my aunt's place, so many things and preparation to be done for him. Feel so bad. After dinner, we took a cab back home as Caden need to rest.

Return of Nebuliser set

Today, I brought Caden to Doc Ong to return the nebuliser set and for Doc Ong to do a review of Caden. Lucky Caden has fully recovered. However, Doc Ong warned us to take good care of him as he has sensitive nose like Adrian and is prone to be asthmatic like Adrian too. I feel that I just have to keep him away from people who smokes and switch on the air purifier often. After seeing Doc Ong, I brought him home immediately as have to let him rest before more program later.

Mild Bronchitis

Today, my mum worked only half day. She brought Caden to see doc after her work. According to Doc Ong, Caden is down with mild bronchitis. He mentioned that Caden has a sensitive air passage way thus has high chance of getting asthma if he is not taken care properly. So Doc Ong wanted Caden to be put on nebuliser. Thus mum has to rent the nebuliser back. And Caden has to be nebulised 4 times a day. Lucky Caden is a good boy and did not reject the machine. He seems to be having fun. Poor Caden... Have to keep him away from cigarette smoke and people who smoke as Doc Ong said that cigarette smoke can trigger asthma symptons. Its really heart wrenching to see my poor son going through all these because I remembered my father in law smokes and has been in close contact with Caden in the recent few days. He even smoked in the house when Caden is around. Sigh...

Lunch Buffet at Allson Hotel

Today is the last day of holiday for the Lunar New Year. We woke up at the usual time today as we need to prepare to go back to my mum's place early.

Grandmother decided to give everyone a treat at the Allson Hotel. Its a lunch buffet. Thus, we need to go back to my mum's place then go over to Allson Hotel. We arrived at my mum's place at around 11.30am. Then my parents and Caden went over to Allson Hotel with my grandmother and aunty first. As for deardear and I, we waited for deardear to settle his work first as his server is down again. He has been working every night on his server for the past few days. Poor deardear.. Think he is falling sick soon...

Lucky we managed to rush down to Allson Hotel before 1pm for the lunch buffet. However, we only stay for an hour then have to rush back home as the server is still down. Though its a short lunch, I am still able to savour the food. The buffet lunch is quite nice.

Second day of Lunar New Year

Its the second day for new year. Today, deardear and I slept till 9 plus as there is no more any house visiting so we can rest and relax at home. My dad is not used to sleeping at my place thus kept saying that he wanna go back home. So I suggested to go out for lunch first. My mum feel like eating Ding Tai Fung so I suggested to take a train to Tampines Mall for lunch.

It was so crowded at Tampines Mall. Many people are out for lunch, maybe as a celebration for Chinese New Year like us. After waiting for about 10 to 15 min, we gotten a table. Had an enjoyable and fulfilling lunch. After lunch, we took a train back home whereas my dad took a train back to Selegie.

At home, we noticed that Caden is not feeling too well - down with cough and flu. Deardear was hesitant to bring him to his friend's place tonight. After the nap in the afternoon, Caden seems better so deardear and I brought him to deardear's friend, Dennis house. Its his annual gathering with his sec friends. As there are also other toddlers around, Caden enjoyed himself. I think deardear also enjoyed the gathering with his old friends. We did not stay for long as we are aware of Caden's situation. Moreover, my mum is waiting at home with Tita so we went home at 8 plus.
