1 month to 3-years-old

how time flies...

by end of next month..he is 3-years-old...

currently its been almost a week...i agak strict ngan dia with : no MILK before sleeptime..slalu nya si kecik ni akan minum susu n baru la terlelap...so i akan kasi susu before change his sleepwear+brush teeth smua...so by the time nak tido no more MILK...

harus la MENANGIS...tp yang merengek smbl mata kuyu "Mama...syusyu"...and i just told him that he just had his milk...and ada few days mntk susu xdpt so dia mntk air...so kasi minum air..but biler mengepit bawah ketiak still mintak n lastly...amik port nak tido...port nak tido dia adalah ATAS PERUT MAMA....aisshhhh tau la lemak penuh berkempul....empuk kan farouq...hahahaha

and lately ni kalau kat rumah..biler dia nak susu, i mmg akan buat half of bottle je..lebey kurang 6oz je eventho biasanya buat penuh...biler dh biasa mcm ni..biler i buat penuh dia dh xhabis mnum sgt...but sooner or later akan habis la..but not as before yang skali hadap je habis...

with this approach, pampers adalah kurang penuh di waktu malam....tp i kena kasi dia more fiber or foods supaya dia boleh melancarkan business dgn aman...owhh btw smlm after mandi pagi, i masuk blek nak amik towel..n tup2 pergi balik toilet sbb nak lap2 badan si kecik nmpk la ada t*hi atas lantai...cissss budakkk....cuba nak berak bgtau!!! leh mama train ddk atas jamban tau...hahaha...

Progress at school :

• Masih menangis pergi skolah...naik tangga ok..tp dpn pintu je any aunties nk amik masih melalak T___T
• Dia kurang berkawan...ada few frens je dia baik...
• kat skolah teachers cakap solat main2..hahaha...separuh jalan la..kadang2 lari masuk playhouse xmo solat ngan kengkawan...xpe xpe..taun dpn 4 taun xde playhouse dah..awak dh tadika...nak xnak kena blaja...hiksss...
• belajar? ermm...Al-fatihah dah ada bunyi..dh boleh complete with kepelatan...surah lain i xpernah test..xtau nak test or suruh dia baca surah lain pn....lain2 progress masih sama...kenal colors...kenal alphabet and alhamdulillah kenal both Upper Case and Lower Case even ada a few masih confius...

as at today...HAPPY 35-month-old my lil boy! 

muka happy dapat pow mama...tgk la toys from ELC tu!

Saja nak share my collection...

So me n hubby chose Corelle Squares Simple Lines - Black as tema utk rumah kami...

Throwback : Broga Trip

Date : 13/02/2010

Mmg throwback habis2 la kan...hahaha...dah more than 3 years sbelum wujudnya blog ni pn

Sebenarnya kisah nak throwback ni coz yesterday I had my 1^st aerobic session at home…slalu kadg2 workout yang biasa2 aka angkat2 kaki n sit up yang kadg2 skali je semiggu..lepas tgk bibi la ni..

And eventho I workout kt rumah…but I put on a complete workout attire aka sport bra, dry fit shirt n pant and shoes…so xkan la nak pakai sport shoes yang beria tu kan..then I remembered that I have 1 kasut yang ringan yang simple yang baru dipakai SEKALI…and sekali tu adalah masa TRIP TO BROGA…

Ha jauh sangat nak citer mcmana kisah throwback ni…HAHAHA

So these photos smua uploaded by others..i x upload pn aritu..n ada 2 photographers that time..my husband n his cousin…sblm jmp gmbr ni..pya la payah nak ingat..pergi time dah kawin ke blum…SBB MEMANG X INGAT LANGSUNG PERJALANAN KE SANA….

And rupanya baru 2 bulan kawin..msti I bangun kul pagi n terbongkang smpi la ke Semenyih…bahahaha…what I can remember bila smpi Petronas…we met others kat sana and smyg Subuh dl..sbb subuh pn awal…amik air smyg siap2 and by azan masuk je trus smyg! And trus gerak!

TIPS…sila la parking kat kawasan pokok2 aka hutan2 n lagi atas lagi bagus sbb dapat save tenaga but last time we went xyah bayar parking pn…xtau la sekarang…tp kami dl parking kt bawah2 tu je..perghh rugi energy sbb rmi rupanya parking atas2 ha..tp mayb nak blk nnti susah la kot kalau org double park ke kan...

Kami SESAT…sbb gelap xperasan sepatutnya kena turn right masuk kawan berhutan n ktrg dok yakin straight je and sampai ke LADANG GETAH mana tah…pergghhhh jauh tu patah balik!! But luckily managed to reach there before the sunrise! Yeaaaa……

Yoga pose..sepatutnya kalau 2 ppuan je lagi cantik kot gambar LOL

Left : Pojie
Right : Hubby

Nak memanjat smpi ke atas mmg la leh skali sama2 tp seriously bila nak turun mmg akan berasingan..sapa lambat ke belakang la sbb once u get the momentum mmg akan laju je trun..rasa lain kali nak bawak kotak so leh slide je trun...HAHAHA...so tu la drg ni kena tggl sbb turun dok stop2 je..i trus berlari ke bawah je...

Last but not least :D

eh btw...perasan tak KASUT tu? hehehe...sila lihat di yoga pose itu k :D

Progress : VillaPark

Alhamdulillah progress adalah memberangsangkan..

Plaster ceiling permintaan last minit dh almost complete..xde la beria wat downlight sbb en suami dh beli lampu yang x sesuai if ada downlight...just buat lampu keliling jer..but 

Then only they can proceed with kitchen bar n pasang kitchen kabinet..utk built in cabinet dlm bilek tggu pintu smpi n leh attach n complete...

Since hubby was around last week..agak free sbb the scheduled operation for our lil boy postponed! Last minute br nk inform..so on Tuesday which suppose to be hari yg dia patut di check oleh pakar bius adalah hari kami mencari langsir...went to the hospital..then got our lil boy new admission letter then off to Macy at Minlon...

Process mencari langsir? Harus la process gaduh laki bini smpi tahap I main candycrush tp membontoti suami n the salesperson...sekali sekala hubby bising suruh kasi pendapat..dah I kasi pendapat  lastly ikut cadangan dia jgk..so xnak kasi sakit hati..ANGGUK je la kepala tanda setuju so that xde argument! pfftttttt...

On Thursday hubby tggu di rumah org dtg buat measurement...and on Friday he went to Macy *kejadian hubby marah salesperson* and that night br drg kasi quotation...so yesterday hubby dh bayar depo more than half..so tekad n redha je la ngan hasilnya...beside langsir, blind juga di order trus di situ..mudah smua siap satu tmpt...

So skrg biler nk pindah?? 

En suami plan nk balik mid Oct for 5 days gitu utk :

• Finalize lampu n wiring
• Masuk perabot 
• Masuk other furniture
• Pasang langsir
• N brgn elektrik yg lain...

But kalau lampu smua br nk buat...biler nya nk ngecat? N biler nk basuh rumah? Dah la rumah xde tanah ni weeknd xleh wat aktiviti renovation aka construction aka drilling ke apa...so mmg xkan leh complete in 5 days gitu.

So kena ada trip blk weekend to confirm on wiring n lampu prior to 5days pya trip...so that I leh mngemas or mcuci sbelum perabot smua masuk..tiket brunei-kl-brunei yang ala2 last minit mau more than rm500 or sometimes boleh cecah RM 1k...banyak sungguh pembaziran di situ...

Langsir inshaAllah if hubby xsmpt I leh tggu kt rumah...tp perabot smpi hubby kena ada utk arrange smua siap2..so ini la perancangan kami...

Doakan smua nya berjalan lancar...susah jgk long distance renovation ni...hahahaha...kalau by next trip xleh complete...mmg taun dpn la baru leh masuk! T__T

Luggage Bag : Samsonite

At last...got 1 new luggage bag..and backpack both from Samsonite...*tq en suami*

I travelled berdua ngan si kecik since he was 7months old...berdua naik flite but that time i pakai baby carrier je...then mampu lagi TARIK bag je..

but bila next trip when he was 9months old..x mampu utk dukung sbb si kecik itu adalah boolatt n montok, so harus with stroller..so harus mencari luggage bag yang boleh di bawak as in xperlu di tarik..ye la sebelah tangan tolak stroller..xkan sebelah tangan tarik bag..mmg xtau apa jadi la jawabnya...

So samsonite la jawabnya...All direction wheels rotation ensure smooth & silent spinning...but sblm ni usually pakai hubby pya yang besar sket dari cabin size...so decided to buy a new luggage utk trip Nov nanti since if not current luggage bag tu mmg rasa 3/4 brg farouq je kot T___T

Pening memilih

at 1st kami punya plan biler parents nak ke US this december *insyaAllah* nak membeli luggage bag nya..as in parents bwk 2 je pergi and balik bawak 4 aka 2 luggage bags kami...or kakak biler nak balik for good dr US bwk kan luggage kami ke..tp sbb we needed this luggage bag...so nnti la kita plan but kita beli dl satu..

Sebabnya En suami nak ini and i nak ini..Large size kt US beza dlm rm400 jgk la..tp i nak kabin bag yang firelite collection tu jgk..perghhhh lawa siut! hahahaha....ok kumpul duit! sbb rasanya msti xleh pow en suami pya ni kalau nk kabin bag! hiksss...

Ready to fly...hehehe

 

FIRELITE - LAWA!!!!

Sesi makan-makan di bulan September

• Durian Crepe, Wondermama
• Beef Nachos, Wondermama

Location : Wondermama, Bangsar Village *next to Plan B Ground Floor*

Partner : Rifqi Farouq :D

Review : 

DURIAN CREPE - portion masih boleh dihabiskan sorang :D...RASA?? biasa2 je...just untuk hilangkan rasa boring tu..nasib ada flakes di situ....so boleh la mengurangkan rasa muak..hehehe..

BEEF NACHOS : sebenarnya saya kekenyangan..so nak order la fries je ke tp xde pn nampak menu snack yang simpe T___T..sbb xkan la semata-mata nak makan durian crepe...so nachos adalah seperti yang baru dibukak yang dibeli dari Jusco..hahaha...si kecik makan sronok la sbb dapat makan jajan...bukan slalu..beef and dip sauce dia pn sedap jgk...

• Banana Leaf Rice or Nasi Daun Pisang

Location : Sri Nirwana, Bangsar

Partner : En Suami

Review :

my 1st time *loser*..nasib la en suami melayan kerenah isteri dia ni...kami amik 3 side dishes (ayam kicap, lam masala & sotong goreng) and only sotong je habis...ayam kicap tu, rasa nya Nasi Kandar Pelita lagi sedap...lamb saya kureng sket...sotong dia SEDAP! 

but overall sedap je nasi...ada peria goreng yang sedap itu *try buat smlm kt rumah xjadi..ishhhh*..and yang dalam bekas kecik tu orang minum *called as RASAM*..i x minum but hubby cakap kalau x mnum kira x complete la makan nasi atas daun pisang ni...whateva! hahaha....masam kot! my 1st time..at least i tried la..nanti dh makan slalu biasa la kot..hubby mmg slalu kot makan mcm ni..aishhh...

btw..dah lama teringin benda ni..tp xde partner aka kawan utk makan n utk di ajak...xkan nak cuti n ajak kawan cuti kan..weekend xkan nak bwk si kecik n msti penuh pya..so tunggu hubby je la

• Sushi Zanmai

Location : One Utama

Partner : my two heroes :)

From Top Left Clockwise :
Smoked Salmon Salad, Unagi (75g), Beef (Medium Well),
Tuna Roll, Seafood Rice & Salmon with fried crabstick roll

We went to OU after Maghrib..xpe la skali skala penat after work keluar...Main purpose adalah nak membeli luggage bag utk trip Nov nanti...and for dinner hubby ajak makan Japenese Food..at 1st i nak ajak g Sushi King je sbb teringin nak Golden Ball...tp takat sushi king leh je pergi sndr so ke Sushi Zanmai la kami..asyik tengok orang je update kan..

And my 2nd time tried unagi..this time dah boleh adapt sbb sedap plk rasanya...last time i cuba kt sushi tei xlalu plk...and si kecik tido n biler bangun mamai xde mood nk makan...but seafood rice dia adalah penyelemat sbb mmg masing2 LAPOR...hahaha..

_____________________

i pernah terbaca ada orang share pasal jangan menunjuk dengan apa yang kita makan kt FB, Instragram or memana..but i rasa tgk niat kot..sbb biler i baca or nmpk foods yang menarik..buat kita tau ttg kewujudn makanan tu and di mana nak jumpa..and buat kita aim nk makan benda tu..which for me adalah bagus..

Untuk orang yang macam i yang kurang or jarang makan luar...so sangat rasa sronok biler org share benda2 makanan tu..*jangan la share makan kt hotel je dah la*.... sbb at least biler hubby ajak keluar i ada tmpt2 makan yang bermain2 di kepala otak...

till then... :D

BBIM : Concert Digital Potraits Package

Remember on my last previous post pasal ada costume photoshoot? yes apparently he cried and became the last person on that photoshoot...pfttttt

it was when the teacher said "nak makan x? (lunch hour)..before we go and get our lunch..come and take photo" yeee smua..kena ugut sket...

since its for the concert photo, so the teachers kalau boleh wanted all students ada la kan gmbrnya...did i mention yang frq ni even until now still menangis everytime i sent him to school T____T and biler i tnjk all his classmates, only few frens je yang dia bgtau..and when i asked the teacher, she said "a,aa farouq dia TAK berkawan sangat...either dia sorang2 or main sorang2 or ngan few kawan je"

That was why i rasa dia menangis beria sbb dia rasa smua orang pandang dia...and ada plk photographer yang x di kenali...LOL

and hasilnya...

.

.

.

.

.

.

bahahaha

either menangis...muka xde perasaan...or mata bergenang air mata..xtau la apa teachers dia buat bagi dia ddk diam kat situ...at least ada dari xde...OK LA kan...

we as a parents were given option to choose the picture and packages that we wanted...so since ada free 1 set...so we opted to choose Package A..and instead of 2 dpt 1 for free...so dpt la 3 sets! pergghhhh...each dpt 3 photos..so xpe la banyak...*nanti senang nak kasi kt gurlfren* :D

and kami amik satu gmbr yang bottom left...and other 2 sets???? gmbr dia menangis beria tu....LOL...biar smpi besar la jadi kenangan ye FAROUQ...sapa suruh manja sangat :)

Sample output

tgk output and tgk kids yang senyum n posing...gurls siap make up lagi...ishh ishh ishhh farouq...nasib drg dah besar and xleh la compare ngan awak yang blum 3 tahun lagi tu...wondering mcmana la dia kalau kt concert end of year nnti...ermmmmm xnaik pentas kah? jangan malukan mama k farouq...hahaha..

positive side nya..sbb dia pemalu or apa..so dia agak takut utk g mall berjalan sndr or x pegang tangan..unless dalam kedai yang banyak TOYS T___T

Shah Jaszle??

Last night boring xtau nak buat apa...clicked la brainybunch's hashtag at Instagram...

tup2 ternampak my son being tagged kt one of those photos...

So cute.....his teacher took a photo of him during their Raya+Merdeka Celebration last month...uploaded by 1 of his playhouse teacher and the other one yang mentioned "My sweetheart" tu pn his teacher...so i guess he is ok at school...teachers luv him despite he luvs to cry every morning (mostly) LOL

but with that caption?? Shah Jazle (i think she meant Shah Jaszle) ?? i dont think kononnya hensem but maybe the haircut kot...can read it here...ye la kecik2 dah ada rambut gitu kan..skrg dh panjang malas nk potong...but have to cut his hair this weekend since next week ada BIG program/event...

one of his pre-raya photo
& with that hair? OMG

They had pre-raya photoshoot a day before their Raya+Merdeka celebration...and photos of him yang MELEKAT&MENYOROK with his teacher... T___T bebudak lain elok je berposing and i was wondering dia ni jenis x berkawan kot kt school...

Still waiting for their Raya+Merdeka Celebration at FB page and then only i nak citer pasal tu...hehehe..which i dont know when..being told cikgu dia bz..hiks

and with that penyek hair on pre-raya and esoknya time ada raya celebration..i dah siap2 pakaikan wax kat his hair..sbb tu gmbr berbaju melayu nampk lawa sket rmbt..:D sbb usually g school dia pakai baby oil je..and smlm drg ada sesi photoshoot with costume and tah2 he with his kinda penyek hair again! sbb i x diberitahu ada sesi photoshoot pn...
