Our Experience with Chicken Pox

Despite having a vaccination, Bay has chicken pox!
Though it is not uncommon for the virus to break though, it is definitely unusual to see a full-blown case like this.

How to classify as full blown case?
My PD asked me to count the spots and if there are more than 100, it's a full blown case.

I stopped counting at 100 and they are just the spots on half of his torso! It is only the 2nd day, not even over the peak of "poxing". Oh man! We decided to give him the antiviral medication to shorten the symptoms duration. It has to be taken within 3 days from the start of first symptoms.

Our greatest worry is Meimei, who has not taken any of her vaccinations for Chicken Pox. As advised by our PD, we immediately brought her for the jab. If the jab is taken within 5 days of exposure, then there is a high chance that the jab will take effect faster than the virus. It's a race against time!

Update: As of 25 May 2014, 1 month after our chicken pox episode, Meimei is still pox free.

Crying Princess Meimei

如果她自认是“哭包”第二，没人能拿第一!

Crying so badly all because 二姨妈 wants to 抱抱 her!

One positive thing to note though... now I have photo evidence that she only has 4 teeth at the age of 1 year and 6 months.

Implementing The Right Reward System For My Kid

Bay is highly motivated by the carrot. Recently, I implemented a reward system for him such that he will get a stamp if he had done something well (like learnt a new song on the piano, did his homework well, etc). He need to collect an agreed number of stamps before he can get his reward.

Innovative Punishment

These two best friends are getting on my nerves! They are always fighting over some tiny little stuff.

This time they are literally fighting over a tiny little lego man!
I made them hold hands with the lego man for 5 mins
They burst into laughter soon. Haha!
