Clearing out clothes

Never have I thought this would be such an emotional activity.

Every quarter (or is it 2 months?), I would clear out Cavan clothes. Those that don't fit him anymore.

As I unfold the pieces, I would remember the little body of my baby boy. He's grown! On occasion, I would freeze at moments of nostalgia...

That day, Dar was clearing the clothes together with me. I don't think guys would share such sentiments, I thought. Maybe it only happens to mommies.

To my surprise, he remarked as he was unfolding a piece, "Do you remember how small Bebe was at this age? So cute!"

At least I know I'm not the only one...

Rear in

Poor Cavan. Instead of celebrating his birthday, the thing we did was to bring him to the doc's.

He had been having fever over Chinese New Year. 39.4 deg C. We brought him to a GP on New Year's Eve. His PD was not open so we had no choice but to visit the clinic.

After CNY, his fever hadn't subsided so we brought him to the PD. If paracetanol and sponging still didn't work, we would have to administer Voren suppository if his temperature continued to rise. It was a little white waxy bullet-shaped thingy.

Dar and I tried to insert into Cavan's anus. Hmm, that boy didn't protest nor cry but he did try to escape. Hey! Wait that little bullet got expelled out of his butt! So hubby grabbed him and I tried again. I pushed it in. Cavan pushed it out. The thing went in and out, in and out. Finally, I gave up. So Cavan got released and quickly scurried off.

How are we supposed to keep it in? Did we do it the right way? I tried surfing the net for more info and instruction. Apparently, there wasn't much info on this.

Later, I found out from my mom that we are supposed to press it in for approx. 5 sec. The wax will melt in the body heat and won't stand the chance of being expelled.

Ah, this thing should come with an instruction, or step-by-step guide. But spare the illustration pls.
