asthma and frogs…..

Hari ni last day of The Little Misses’ holidays, esok baru her school starts. Minggu lepas I buat appoinment to see the doctor for all of us today. Ingat nak ambik flu jab for Miss 1-day-to-11 and The Other Half and I today and for Miss 6 to get her coughs checked. But punyalah tak best nya sebab boleh kan habis supply for the flu vaccine around Perth ni. Every pharmacy we all called, semua kata problem at the supplying and the transport sites so memang tak sampai lagi ke Perth ni. And tak tau lagi bila akan tiba, ciss….. Biasalah bila dah nak Winter ni, suddenly demand outstrip supply :-). Kenalah tunggu…..

And seperti yang we all suspected for a while now (but hoping it wasn’t the case), Miss 6 might have mild asthma. Now she has the trifecta of ecezema, allergy and asthma.. joy, NOT! But I guess when it runs in the family, nak buat macam mana kan. Adik beradik I, extended family, nieces ramai yang ada asthma so when another one is diagnosed with asthma, takde sape heran lagi dah, hehehehe. It started with just the normal cold which triggered her asthma. So now she’s on trial medication just to see if it has any positive effects on her and proper diagnosis can be made.

Anyway, balik from the doctor tadi I pun rolled up my sleeves to make fancy cookies for Miss 1-day-to-11 to take to school esok for her birthday ‘celebration’. Cookies tu I dah buat on Saturday nite and hari ni tinggal nak ice and decorate them aje. Selalunya I cuma bawak cupcakes to school tapi I malas pulak nak buat cupcakes and pack them nicely. Kalau cookies ni, tinggal letak aje dalam nice clear plastic bag and she can distribute it to her classmates easily kan. And since buruh kasar masih belum pergi school lagi, I asked them to decorate the cookies, senang kerja I kan :-).

Layan gambar The Little Misses in action and the end products.

I iced the cookies while they played with the lollies, m&ms, licorice..

Bestnya main2 dengan all the decorations kan. 1 letak kat cookie, 1 masuk mulut….. hehehehehe

The theme was ‘froggy in a pond’. Ada rupa tak frog on a lily pad/log in a light blue pond surrounded with colourful pebbles/rocks? :-D.

I know I know, mana ada frog kaler merah kan. The Other Half kata ini species deadly amazonian frog tu yang kaler merah tu, hehehe. And orang lain iced the cookies, smooth aje kan but I saje je buat tak smooth tu  sebenarnya (konon2nya waves lah kat dalam air pond tu, hikhikhikhikhik….)

LG, klu ada asthma mmg bila batuk lambat nak baik..sometimes angin tak ada ribut tak ada pun bley batuk memanjang...

myself pun ada asthma tapi jenis yang once in the blue moon baru kena.. bila tak ada attack.. kena eczema plak.. hampeh..

hopefully miss 6 cepat baik.. sian klu asyik batuk manjang..badan semua ikut sakit...

Ajzie said...

Kniedaz,
Nasib baik I ada slave labours 2 orang tu, pandai2 aje diaorang decorate ikut suka, hehehe

blu4sky,
Memang kan, my sis n adik pun mcm tu jugak. Kadang2 takde asal usul, terus kena attack sampai tercungap2. Pastu lama nak baik until dia ambik steroids.

Ajzie,
For me dia rasa masam2 manis raspberry tu, sedap lah jugak :-)

Kak Zai,
tu lah, sebab cuaca kat sini skrng dah a bit cooler pagi2 tu yg 2 minggu tak baik2 :-(

Fuuiyo! wa tabik spppring la katU. So CREATIVE GITEW. Tapikan air kolam kat M'sia ni mana ada warna baby blue. Selalunya jernih je atau hijo berlumut.

Cian katMs 6 n tak habis batok. Just to share with you,all my 3 children are asthmatic. Memang susah nak jaga tapi hidup perlu diteruskan. rumah kena mop ngan Dettol mixture 2X sehari. Letih le. Sampaikan carpet kecik sehelai pun tak de. Nampak miskin bebenolah rumah I ni. Anything yg can collect dust semua tak leh ada kat rumah I. Bantal kekabu busuk I pun Dr suruh buang.Kerana sayang anak kuturutkan.hu..hu..hu

Kak Ummi,

I tak lah rajin tapi kesian pulak kat Miss 11 tu takde benda special nak bagi her classmates.
Diaorang memang suka tolong kalau part decoration ni :-).

SJB,
Tapi sayang nak makan kan, hehehe

Yat,
Oh ye ke? Hopefully, Zahra pun mcm tu lah cuma dpt attack once in a blue moon aje.
Kids and decorating cakes and cookies memang ngam especially if they can eat the decoration at the same time, hehehe

Mira,
Happy birthday to your hubby. Sama lah tu tarikh nya with Alya :-).Bila dah makin usia meningkat, makin tak tau nak beli apa as present kan, hehehe.
WA started school semalam tp the kids' school ada pupil-free day tu yg start hari ni.

Am,
Kalau you pergi Perth after Gold Coast mesti you akan rasa let down sbb Gold Coast sgt happening banding dgn Perth yg calm n peaceful and no fun, hehehe

Naddiea,

My kids memang suka when it comes to decorating cupcakes and cookies ni. As long as you tak kisah the end product cantik ke tak, hehehe

an said...

LG,
lama betul tak tinggal jejak kat sini, busy tahap gaban. Kalau Perth tu dekat, dah lama I lari ke sana kejap utk gi holiday with my family. Boleh relax2 & tinggalkan keje yg menimbun, tapi bila balik, kena buat gak uhuhuhu :(

Your cookies cantik, pandai your kids decorate. Kesiannya miss 6 kena asthma. I hope dia akan cepat2 sembuh.

I rasa nak tergelak bila baca pasal the memory card yg mertua ambil. Macam mana lah jadi camtu, sabar je lah.

Lastly, Happy Birthday to your daughter miss 11.

* Hmm tapi bila time sihat, melompat tak hengat punye! :D

An,
Perth ni dekat aje skrng, naik AirAsia ke Mas ke, 5 jam dah sampai, hikhikhik....
Thanks for the wish :-).

Aida,
