Zoe Joy's Second Birthday Partee in the Month!

We think our dear little 1 1/2 months old daughter is pretty happening.

This is her second Birthday Partee within the month! :)

We celebrated May Vern's 21st at Mum's Place. We didnt know that there was a huge floor upstairs which was set aside for the partee!

We didnt manage to take a lot of the photos, but we'll link them once May Vern gets them up online.

Zoe Joy and her Mobile

Ahh .. u thot it was Mobile Phone rite?

Heheh .. did u know the little twirly things on top of your baby cot that goes round and round and sorta makes u giddy when u keep staring at it, is called a Mobile? Hmmm i wonder why?

Read my self-made poem below ... :)





We are glad to see that Zoe Joy's focus and attention is really sharp. She's just
under two months old and she's focusing on key objects placed above her. Praise God!

[There is this conspiracy theory going round that girls actually pick up things, learn, develop
faster than boys. Then again i could have heard it wrong! :)]

Mobile Poem

Round and round they go

Bright little toys in circle they flow

Why? The music I wonder

Its the same tuneless tune I don't admire

Daddie, mommie keep winding it up

I just hope one day it will shut up

These colored toys circling round me

Like lost lambs without their Mary

2 Milestones In One Day! Nathanael Feeding himself

We are really thankful to see such great progress each day in Nathanael's life. Yesterday we were blest by God to see two new milestones achieved by Nathanael.

First of all, he was standing unaided and then when he had dinner later that day, he learnt to feed himself! That is absolutely Amazing!


We were sharing with you earlier this week that Nathanael was learning to hold on to his spoon. And we were extremely delighted yesterday when he took the food on the spoon, and fed himself! We were like ... WOW!

Praise God for helping him to understand and connecting the movement from holding a spoon to putting the food in his mouth!

Tiff managed to catch the last few spoons on Video. Watch the video below or click here.

Nathanael Standing Unaided - Another Milestone

Amazing! God is Amazing! What God is doing in Nathanael is Amazing!

We just wanna Bless God for another milestone achieved by Nathanael in his daliy progress.

Nathanael was in HUKM for Physio Therpay yesterday.

He was put to Stand in front a wooden frame, and you can see from the photos below that he was holding on to it, as he stood. This is a really good sign, as it shows how Nathanael is learning to stand on his own, and to support his own self.

Nathanael holding on to the Wooden Frame to support himself.

Here's a Video put together showing how Nathanael stood during his Physio Therapy.

Nathanael's Milestone - Holding His Spoon

This is another milestone for Nathanael.

We have been teaching Nathanael during his feeding time to learn to use the spoon [which seems to be the best opportunity for Nathanael to learn . .cos he's one hungry little boy!! :) ]

In the photos below you would see Nathanael learning to hold on to this Spoon, we are really glad that he can grip his spoon so tightly. Cos this will help with the overall integration of coordinating the movement of food on the spoon, to spoon in the mouth! :)

Formula : Spoon with Food in Hand + Spoon in Mouth = One Full Stomach! :)

This is Priceless!

And yes, we are throwing this in as a special! :)

Nathanael and Zoe Joy holding hands.

Err .. actually its more of Zoe Joy holding Nathanael's hands! :)

Nathanael's 200th Day on Ketogenic Diet

Amazing ... 200 days have come and gone and Nathanael is doing well on his Ketogenic Diet. In fact Nathanael looks forward to his meal periods and thru his Meal periods he actually is motivated to "work" to get his food.

Initially (September 2006) when we started on the Ketogenic Diet we were apprehensive. Afterall we have tried so many things. So so so so many things to try and help control the seizures in Nathanael.

Not knowing that as we were reaching the end of our rope of Options in dealing with Nathanael's seizures, the Ketogenic Diet worked! Nathanael is Seizure Free !!!

We must add, that after reading tons of information, books, documentation of the Ketogenic Diet, that there was only a 20% working chance that the Diet would work on a child. Given the odds, we feel that it not by chance, nor by probability, but it is indeed a Mircale of God in Nathanael's life!

Since the stop of Nathanel's seizures in October, we have seen him achieve his Milestones, as he development progresses ahead each day.


We are BLEST by God because :

• Nathanael seizures has stopped
• Nathanael doesn't mind the food. (He's eating nearly the same cycle of Food and RCF Milk for the last 200 days), and he looks forward to his meal periods :)
• Nathanael is responding positively to his therapies and showing improvements every day
• Nathanael has stopped one of his Anti-Epileptic Drug (AED) - Frisium (Clobazam)

Thank you for your Prayers, Support and Love towards Nathanael and our Family. We thank you for being Strong with us as we go thru this absolutely amazing chapter of our lives. God is indeed our Strength and our Hope and our Portion! :)

We wanna BOAST of what God has done in Nathanael's life. We wanna Shout God's Fame that in this 200 Days God has been Faithful each day of Nathanael's life!

Thank You JESUS ... NO MORE Frisium!!!!

ONLY GOD can do this in Nathanael's Life ......

My God Is So Big

So Strong And So Mighty

There's Nothing My God Cannot Do
