Renew Lotion....Melaleuca
We were introduced to this great product in March 2012 by one of the SMH Feb Mummy who shared that her kid was down with bad rashes since birth and after using for a month, improvements were seen.
For my thinking was, why not, just go ahead and try and we got nothing to lose since Gabriel face been THIS BAD...HOW BAD can it gets to?
So we started using the renew lotion... well...after using for a week, his skin did improve and a month later, visibly we can see great improvement to the usual angry rashes... but there are still pimple like pus around...
When we went back for review at the skin specialist, was prescribed another cream for the pus and so far... cleared and his face is better! yes!!!!
Of coz it may be due to any combination of products we used etc... but we dun care that much anyway...
This is the range of renew products i had purchase...from bath n body wash to the lotion...
Love the shampoo and conditioner... very nice smell and make my hair smooth
Our new Family Tee
Well well, when was the last time i bought family tees....
I tink the very last one was the Angry bird range and before that still have a couple of design...
This round... its from Gmarket and must say its pretty cheap and affordable! 4 pcs including shipping from Korea cost me less than $50...
Yet to wear but soon ba!!!
Aquadoodle doodle.... May Purchase...
Recently, without much notice on Raphael's development.... I realised he can actually write from 1-20...count till 29!!!!
He is also very creative and love to writes and draw on the doodle board... so this is my start of the craze... got him 4 aquadoodle, 2 of each design to put at Nai Nai house!
Even got another set for my dear god daughter Yvette and Ian....believed they love it!!! :)
Gabriel will try to participate but...honestly...cannot make it.... improvements need to be made...
The Pros of this is that we are using WATER to draw and its basically harmless to the walls or tables or even floor... even if they start to doodle on the external areas apart from the mat, relax... nothing harmful can be made... coz its WATER...
cool right.... am glad i found this alternative to those color pens... they are simply messy and hard to "maintain..."
GOOD INVESTMENT!
Latest Iherbs Purchase - End May
I always make purchase on iherbs and shipped directly to MIL house... so convenient and usually reach me within 3-5working days via DHL...
So far so good and this round I purchase the Vitamin C and Fish oil for Gabriel, not forgetting the usual colostrum powder...
I must say that in future I shall NOT buy any chocolate drinks from US... taste BAD!!! i hate the ovaltine and this time this NESQUIK,....yucks
The gerber puff not bad as it received demand from both Gabriel and Raphael!!!! also got the Happy Baby puff, and the sesame street one.. the latter i yet to let the kids try
Lets see what should I buy next round... :P
bf-ing journey end @ 16mths!
Yippie!!! I finally stopped the pumping TOTALLY!!!!
Suppose to pump last night 30-May-2012 but thinking that since my supply is lower and its a waste of time to spend time taking out that miserable 80-100ml which can barely make up a feed...decide to sleep and forget about this daily routine
gone were the days i have super abundant of milk whereby can easily hit 800-1000ml per session...
anyway since gabriel is easy on FM, its a fast transition to switch to FM pretty easily
Actually this time round Its been pretty memorable!! First time rushing to hospital to look for lactation specialist for help in block ducts, first time pumping so much milk, alot of first....
Ok, so now marks my ORD date!!!! yippie! bye bye breastpump... u shall be kept in my memory...And this is a time to start to watch my diet as i know that breastfeeding burn calories...so once i stopped totally, got to watch my diet and try to burn more calories...
mini fridge, u shall be kept in my memories...RIP
My most memorable pump with pink milk!!!!! no pain at all but seeing the mxiture looks like ribena...gosh!!!!
Anti Ant Tray
Must really vouch for this product...all along my kitchen is like infested with the bloody ants...if i accidentally spill some FM powder on the table top and forget to clean up... soon a whole clan of those ants will come..
Even for not closing the lid properly..they will be like hungry ghost, climb up the FM tin and try to get into the tin... This type of battle is tiring... and unavoidable...
BUT NOT AFTER I PURCHASE THIS!!!
See see, after i put the kaya(sweet), sugar (sweet), bread.... NO SIGHTS of ants!!! yippie....
One way to send a strong signal to the ants... hello, this place is NOT FOR U... shoo shooo
