brushing teeth,
at my own home, i'm still using first teeth and finger brush. i don't brush at the sink, will brush wherever kaizer is (on highchair, on bed, during bathtime etc). i will scrape his tongue with the finger brush also, so he hates it, even though he allows me to do it. no gurgling/rinsing at the sink, but i'll get him to take in plain water using a cup after brushing.
at my mum's home, she brushes for him using first teeth and kid's brush at the sink. then followed on by gugling and spitting, which he actually can do quite well.
i find that brushing is not very clean though, so besides finger brushing, i also floss his lower teeth daily with a floss pick. there's ALWAYS remnants of meat whenever i floss. sometimes if he's in a restive mood, he will allow me to floss the top teeth and inner molars, otherwise he only allows me to floss the bottom 4-6 teeth and that's it.

Hi Mummies,
I'm back to work today so hopefully will have more opportunities to come in to chat.
Hi Traz,
Hope Jayden and meimei are better now. Ya, everytime Matt has a runny nose, I try to separate the 2 kids. But it's difficult because Matt has runny nose and phlegm so often. Sigh...
Re: brushing teeth
We force-brush Matt's teeth every morning during his shower. He hates it but we don't give him a choice. Mostly we only manage to brush his molars properly because that's when he opens his mouth wide enough. Otherwise his mouth is clamped shut tighter than a clam's. He also swallows water instead of spitting them out.
Re: self feed
We totally hate the mess. So usually we will feed him. He also hates anything green or brown in his food so we have a very hard time feeding him.
Re: spicy food
Matt's dramtic when he tastes spicy foods, complete with fanning his open mouth and teary eyes. We usually let him try our food if he insists after we tell him it's spicy, to show him firstly we are not lying about the food, and secondly serves him right for being so greedy. Heartless parents...

Dlim,
Oops!! So sorry, blur... Matt's more caring towards meimei now, at least he will sayang her when she cries. Previously he will keep saying "I dun wan meimei". Think he's resigned to his fate already. Does Jayden or meimei miss you when you're at work? Do they stick to you like glue when u are home?

Cherryteq,
Oh.. matt will said that? At least now he start to dote on meimei..Sometimes u see the way they react, u will find it
very cute..
Jayden still likes to disturb meimei when she's sleeping in my room. I get very angry & frustrated whenever
he goes in & wake her up. Whenever I reached home & called my gal name, she will laugh very happily. She also start
to recognise ppl now.
Yes, both of them still very sticky to me. Especially when meimei want to sleep.. She only want me to carry her.
If my helper or hubby carry her, she will keep crying till I take over. Then my Jayden also another one.. Everytime
when he wakes up, the 1st thing he will do is to cry & look for me! Sometimes if he see me carry meimei, he will
also want to carry. I can feel he's still jealous at times..
Sometimes Im really very tired..finish settling one, another one to go! At least I feel very peaceful when im working...
No one come & disturb me!! Hahaa..
Is Matt & meimei very sticky to u too?
Min,
Lacteofort is to stop the diarrhea & you can buy from guardian pharmacy.

Diane,
lost all the recipes in the HDD crashed.
now me bought from FP = Phoon Huat pre-mix - fa gao.
1 pkt can make abt 20+ small cakes.
usually, i will pour 1/2 of the mix. too much to finish.
S$2.30/pkt
so much easier (jus add water), no more beating needed.
** HOPE all the unfit kids and mummies get well soon.

i find the ready mixture too sweet personally .
but i dunno how to do it frm scratch.
s/w , i think u can check the ingredient pack . mite hv milk , i guess . unless u go to those vegetarian supermkt , then dun hv milk/egg contents ( personal opinion)
min , ya , no fruits . no cold stuff too ( that was wat pd say)

augleo,
so intrigued that i went to google the huat kueh ingredients. most of the recipes online don't use egg and milk. i even found an egg-less and milk-less banana cake. yipee! finally there's a type of cake that kaizer can eat! maybe i can even prepare the cake with him at home, since it sounds really easy. yes, yes, take a picture and show us.
moxi,
OH yes, it does begin with O, heehee =)

funny surnames,
chinese colleague who sits next to my cubicle has a few pictures drawn by her 5 year old daughter. all were signed off as "olivia quick" so of course i had to ask if daughter made a spelling mistake in her name. turns out that her husband's surname is really "quick", and there are two quick families in singapore because the person registering names made a spelling mistake for these two families! was supposed to be quek. she has a 2 year old plus son also. name is not dash (ivy lee's son's name), hahaa.

dlim,
aiyoh then all the colours are wrong! cos he told me ...
jayden = purple (correct answer is yellow and blue)
klaudia = green (teacher sri says it's actually pink)
rachel = pink (teacher sri says correct!)
i ask him a lot of silly questions in the evening, like who his bestest friends are in school (at the moment is brandon and rachel), who cried in school and why, who fell down when running, who sleeps with a pillow, what colour blankets/water bottles his friends use. i think a lot of his answers are made up, hahaa. last week he managed to pronounce a lot of two syllabus names. prior to that, when he said "den" i have to guess whether he means brandon or jayden. now he can say the whole name so conversations are less ambiguous.

Jesse was/is like that too. Every week he goes for a 2 hour independent program. Anyway, the first few weeks when I carried him to the car, he kept telling me, "J spilled water". Some times he'll say, "Jesse snatched".
So one day I asked the teacher and she said, "no, Jesse has never spilled water"...she thought for a moment and then said, "Oh, some other kid did." Ahh...
Two-year-olds...everything is about them!

d,
this evening's conversation was quite funny. i saw that he had a bad patch of eczema on his hand. so i asked him if it was painful. he said yes, and then said "(klau)dia pinch pain". obviously this was made up, cos it's eczema and not bruised. anyway, i heard from the principal that the last time kaizer said "dia pinch pain", the teacher had to explain to kaizer that klaudia was actually not in school that day! then he promptly changed his story to "rachel pinch pain".
according to the principal, they're not deliberately lying, but just imagining a lot, and then sprouting whatever they've cooked up in their head. sure hope she's right. don't want him to grow up to be a serial lier.

same to JK. keeps pointing somewhere and tell me lizard, spider and ant.
when I ask him where? he will giggling away.
if i act worry and scare, he will says "protect mama." w/a hug.
when he really see the spider or lizard, he will scream and shout for protection instead.
Or he will tell me the crane (he can see the crane from window) is moving which is not loh.
using imagination period?
