Baby kiss

Mama Ann says:

Ryo and Brexton just cannot get enough of each other, whenever they see each other, they run towards each other and kiss.

Limping

Mama Ann says:

When Ryo started to limp, his Ah Ma thought the worst, and tried to scare me by saying he is going to get paralysed if he is not treated at all. I for one is not so worried by his limp and thought his limp is due to a normal sprain of his leg and will recover in due time. His leg was not swelling nor he in pain.

But after some nags, I just gave in and we brought him to a chinese sinseh. He was forced to lie on the bed with us pressing him down while the sinseh twisted and turned and made the crack sound and he annouced that one of Ryo' leg was 1cm shorter than the other and if he does not get well in two days he has to go for xray.

Half a day passed and he was still limping, his Ah Ma was already worried sick and continued to think of all the possible things that could go wrong. She wanted to go ask the god, but I said it's not even two days.

Anyway two days passed, we brought him to the padiatrician, after deciding between her and the xray. Lucky we chose her. She said it's the viral infection on the ligament that's causing his limping. Not from a fall, nor a leg pulled too hard. Neither does it require a xray as you can't see ligament from xray. An MRI, which can see ligament, cost thousands of dollars and requires a baby to be SEDATED!!! She prescribed Brufen(medicine for high fever) to help reduce the inflammation and told us to wait for two weeks.

After two days of Brufen Ryo is no longer limping.

Cousins hug

Ryo says:

I like to hug my cousins, and they like to hug me too.

Dog pee 2

Mama Ann says:

Ryo has upgraded his dog pee stunt to a standing position. He can even do it when he is running.

Anyway Ryo can walk down steps by himself while holding onto the rails. This morning I brought him to the playground and I made him walked back himself, including walking up and down the stairs and over little drains.

We are back in Singapore

Ryo says:

Yippee, I am back to this hot hot homeland. I slept most of the time on the plane, and missed my childmeal breakfast :(

Bear bear jacket

Ryo says:

Everyone likes my bear bear jacket. It's comfortably warm too, especially in this freezing cold weather.

Bowling

Ryo says:

Recently so many people have visited me. First it was great aunt Dorothy, then uncle kai and uncle xuan, then great grandma and grandpa.

We went bowling with uncle kai and uncle xuan, can u see me cheering them?

Jealousy

Mama Ann says:

An update on Ryo's emotional development: he can be jealous whenever I carry another baby or when I hug his papa. He'll push his papa away. Maybe to him I can only sayang him and him alone.
