JEL's 1st Birthday Party Preps Update: Trip to Diviland

Last August 21, Hubby and I went to Diviland to check on items we can buy for JEL's 1st birthday. We bought a lot of stuffs but these are not complete yet. We might go back before the Christmas Rush. At least, we already know what we want and need. See contents on our luggage below.

Lobulated, Vascular and Appears Taller than Wide.

Masses in the following locations in cm:

PREVIOUS PRESENT

(10/04/08) (08/16/09)
RIGHT
12:00 B 1.73 1.94

2:00 A 0.52 not seen

9:00 B 2.69 2.38

2:00 A 0.77 0.63

The mass at the 9:00 B position of the right "B" is still lobulated, vascular and appears taller than wide. No calcifications seen. The rest of the visualized masses are hypoechoic solid, oval, parallel to skinline, circumcribed with abrubt interface and without calcification. etc


CONCLUSION:
Slight interval decrease in the size if the lobulated solid mass at the 9:00 B position of the right "B". The rest visualized ,asses demonstrate benign feature.

This is the result of my sonogram last Saturday. I got a little scared because it is still there after almost 15months. See history here. But hubby assures me that it's gonna be alright. I hope and pray that it will really be alright. We still don't know at this time because unfortunately, my previous surgeon/onco is not accrecited anymore with our new HMO. I still need to wait this week to have a checkout with the accredited surgeon/onco of Intellicare in Asian Hospital. We also still need to check if she will be available on Friday since it's a holiday. Anyway, here are some pix of my hubby and baby while we are waiting for my turn in the radiology room.

MOMNESIA - Worst Thing that Happened to me Today


I saw this TERM from N@W. It is commonly know as memory gap. I don't know if I'm really getting old or this was caused by my epidural.

Until now I still can't believe it. Guess what?! I forgot the spelling of our Baby's Name. Waah. We had our pictorial in TPC this morning. While selecting photos for print, I noticed one of the layouts with JEL's name was mispelled (LORIELL) . I know it's wrong but I couldn't recall what's the correct spelling. I keep asking hubby but it seems that he got confused as well. I was thinking that it should be LORIELLE or LORRIELE. I was really thinking hard that time. I tried to convince myself that it is LORRIEL. I told them that it is LORRIEL. But... I still needed to verify that with my baby's BIRTH Certificate when we got home. And I was right. It was JAN LORRIEL.

I felt guilty because it's one thing that a mom should not forget but it did happen to me. Do you think it's normal?

JEL's 1st Birthday Party Preps Update: Party Time Caterer Food Tasting - 2nd Round

I got surprised last Friday night to receive a text from Mel asking if I want to have another round of food tasting. We agreed since we're really going to Festival Mall that Saturday to do our grocery shopping. We picked up the foods at around 3pm and ate them at home. Below are the comments that I texted Mel.

Fish Fillet in Lemon Butter
US: Good but better if with sauce since it's dry.
MEL: It really has a sauce (Tartar or Black Bean) but for sample foods for pick-up they don't give it because it can be spoiled. She just want us to know what kind of fish they are using for their fish menus.

Backed Mac
US: Good also. Tasted like the Baked Spag. We still preferred the Baked spaghetti since long noddles symbolized long life.
MEL: Noted.

Beef Pot Roast in Mushroom Sauce
US: I like the sausage. LOL. Hubby said that it's better than the roast porkloin but it is super greasy. I agree with him. That would be bad for our health. But if they can choose a better beef part (less fat), we like it better than the roast porkloin.
MEL: Noted!

Sweet and Sour Pork
US: We're not able to receive it but instead got another packed sample of roast beef. Hehehe.
MEL: Noted.

Customer Service
US: Superb
MEL: None yet. I haven't tell her that we really appreciate her great Customer Service. We haven't booked anything yet and still we are getting this such good CS. Thanks!

Anyway, we advised Mel that we would still want to get the original menu that we planned. And she took note of that.

073009 - JEL's 6th Month Bday & Monthly Pedia Check-up

JEL's 6th Month Birthday was last Thursday so we needed to go to the office. However, we decided to take a half day off also for her Pedia Check-up. It was supposed to be on 080109 but our schedule is tight on that day. We picked up her cake from Recipes & Magic before picking her up from home.



Her check-up went well except for the one small lymph node that her pedia was able to feel near her jaw. She just advised us to monitor if it will grow bigger or increased.

She grew 2cm longer and still taller from the average (69cm). However, her weight is lower than average.

She only gained 0.2kg since last month. She was previously at 6kg. Our pedia told us to limit her solid intake from 4 to twice a day so that her milk intake will increase. She is only taking 3-4 feedings of 6oz milk a day.

Her vitamins will also increase from 0.5ml to 1ml. Another vitamins was also given to her to boost her appetite. We hope that it will work for her. According to her pedia, she is not skinny but she is also not fat. All here food and milk intakes are being converted to energy because she is so active.

Anyway, she also got her Hepa Vaccine that day. She only cried for a while then started playing again. She will have her vaccine for measles next month.

Before going home, we bought some foods from North Park for her birthday celebration. We had Toast Noodles, Beancurd Mushroom, Sweet and Sour Pork, Aniseed Beef Tendon, Kingdao Spareribs and Salted Fish & Chicken Fried Rice. We had a simple celebration at home. See more pictures here.



Btw, we thank the Lord for all His Blessings, our JEL's 6th Month, her everyday safety and good health!
