what a week!

i have been so busy ever since i touched down in KL. the flight was tiring as Jovan finds it hard to sleep but luckily Joel was well behaved, so it is just dealing with one kid.
we rested in KK for 2 nights, then headed to taiping on the Sat. Stayed in taiping until Thurs then back in KK now.
Joel had alot of fun with his cousins, playing water gun, running around like a mad monkey and just having lots of laughs! it is nice to see him playing so well. but Jovan is sticky like a glue. he wouldn't want anyone else to carry him or feed him so it is just ME.. what a drag
then i get to carry my little niece for the first time. she is so delicate compared to the 2 monsters! girls are really very different from boys.. she smells great except for the fingers..:) and she likes doing the little horsey stunt .. totally adorable.. wonder if my sis will trade little joy for jovan.. :)
it is good to be back in KK, now i need to start doing my stuff, cut hair, shopping, meet up with my good old friends.. etc.. hopefully the crazy kids will be alright while i am away
hubs will be going to Bangkok this Sat. i think i am busier in MY than in aussie.. :)
but there is really no place like home.. i think i can stay here forever..

scrub scrub...cleaning all the way

our house is in a total mess! not only it is messy it is DIRTy! since the kids have been sick and me being ill, i have been neglecting my duty as housewife to clean. sigh.. finally i clean up the house, change the sheets, wash the car, wipe whatever corner i can catch my eye on and vacumm those disgusting spider webs away.. that's how bad the house is.. so shy to even ask people to come..:)
and also packing.. i have to say we really didn't pack much this time. checking in 2 bags which i dun believe even hit 10kgs and i am hand carrying the kid's goodie bag and my own bag for passport and stuff. so hopefully it won't be too tiresome this time to carry so many things.
will be taking the stroller and a pillow along. i am sooo dreading the plane ride.. really scared of my boys, they have a history of being very difficult on the plane. i will pity those that sit nearby us..
so this is it! i wish i am going back for good but no, have to come back here again. i do miss home so so much. and if given a choice i would really want to be back longer. 2 years? :)
will be blogging from MY and seeing our family and friends soon! yay!

Jovan has been awfully difficult. i was reading on previous archives and Joel was also like that around that age. sigh.. everytime we make a trip back it will be during some cranky period.

the most horrible sickies ever!

i have been through a horrible ordeal with the 2 kids being sick. that explains the lack of posts. i have been at home and hardly did any work for the past 3 days.

Joel got well on Tuesday (10/11). That was the same day Jovan was developing the same high fever symptoms. as i always believe Jovan is stronger, the fever was even harsher to him compared to Joel. He was running temperature of 41.4.. i cannot imagine what happens if it goes any higher.

On wed, i decided to stay home with him. most of the time he is fine after neurofen but after 6 hours the fever comes again. and he is so weak and helpless as it is harder to get him to take in fluid and food compared to Joel. Even giving him medication is a challenge. the condition got worse each time

On thurs, i decided to stay home again but working from home. Not much of a work as i had to carry him the whole day while attending calls and typing emails. it was a pain and it breaks my heart even more each time i see him fight an episode of the fever

then on Friday in the wee morning, his condition got even more worse. he was shivering badly and his body was so hot!. i told hubs his lips are already blue, that was when we rushed to the hospital.. and the whole time jovan was like so weak and couldn't even lift his hands or move.. i was so scared and praying so hard that he will be alright. when we sort everything out, we went back and rest.. it was a nightmare.. Jovan is having a very bad viral infection.. affecting his breathing and making it hard for him to eat or take in air.. i had to carry him most of the time upright to make sure he can breathe easily. my arms are so sore now.. i have been carrying the little boy for days!

Then on Sat, the fever managed to come only after 9 hours. and the last neurofen he had was 3.30am this morning. He is still weak and hasn't eaten for more than 3 days.. how does one survive without any food. i have been trying to nurse him as often as i can but at times he just seems so weak to even suck. but i have been forcing water down on him, so hopefully he will recover and his appetite will return. he is so skinny now i dun wanna post any pics.
i have never felt so awful and helpless as a mommy before. and for once i know i can trade everything in this world including my own life just to have him feel better. i was so tempted to just take emergency leave and not work forever! and go back home..
it is just so scary without anyone here, and it makes me feel worse that i am feeling ok and my 2 kids are sick, why can't it be me that is sick?
anyway, i hope they are stronger after this. this has been the worst ever i seen Jovan sick and i really don't want to go through that. visits after visits to doctors who always give the same advise and not much of a help. but hopefully this is the last of the fever i have to endure. me and hubs are really drained out, emotionally and physically...
