Updates on the little boy


I know I haven't been updating Haziq's development here. Bad Ibu. I'm still amazed with how Haziq is nowadays. He has turned into a very curious boy always eager to find out how things work. This is good but sometimes it can really test my patience and boy do I have very limit of it. I just can't keep up with him. Everyday he learns new words either by me teaching him or he himself observing us (which makes it important that we watch what we say in front of him).

Here are some of him antics

Ibu - Ibu

Ayah - Ayah

Grandma - Ma

Grandpa - Pa

Atok - Atok

Nenek - Nek

Haziq - Ajiq

Abah - Abah (he calls his babysitter's husband Abah)

Ummi - Mi (Kak Ani.his babysitter)

Iman - Man (Haziq's cousin)

ball - ball
bird - bird

fish - ish

train - tain

baby - baby (i've been teaching him for quite sometime but he never followed until the other day when he saw the box of the gripe water, there'a a baby picture on it. Haziq pointed to the picture and said 'baby'....mak dia..of course ternganga....hahaha)

panas - anas
hot - ot
jatuh - tuh
tumpah - pah
good - gud

hot - ot

bye - baaaa
cat - yaaaauuuu

dog - dog

nose - nose

mouth - mau (haha yg ni kelakar skit)

cow - mooooo

adoi - adooohh
air - air

no - no

yes - eshh


That's all I can recall at the moment. I wish I have the opportunity to record all his progress (tapi apakan dayaku).

Haziq listens to instructions quite well be it in English or Malay, for example, Haziq..go wake Ayah up..he will into the room and kiss his Ayah and tepuk his Ayah's face, once he finishes his milk...I'll tell him go put your bottle in the sink and wipe your mouth...he will oblige but sometimes oooo sometimes it depends on his mood. I see that he now develops his own way of showing his frustrations or anger. He golekkan badan on the floor. Yes....aaarrgghhh...this is the part where I get so stressed out. Bukan main lagi tunjuk perasaan ok anak teruna ku sorang nih. Mau ajer kugigit pipi itu...ooo wait...I always do. He has temper I tell you. I'm kinda worried coz I see me in him. Short-tempered and easily irritated. I have to be extra careful and smart to tackle this one. Ooo btw, did I mention he has lost some of his baby fat. That's good but I can't help but miss that adorable chubby cheek I used to nibble and kiss everyday....sigh. When you asked him to kiss you he will give you his cheek and say muaaahhh. Hhmm..ok la tuh kan. No more saliva hehe.

I also notice that he showed interest in fast cars. The other day MIL was scrolling the TV program and stopped at a channel showing F1 race. Haziq immediately showed interest and started babbling while pointing at the TV and then talking to me. God knows what he was talking about but it was nice to see that he shows the same interest as his parents. Maybe one we'll take him to circuit. He also loves his big truck, Postman Pat van, I guess it's natural for boys to love this kind of toys kan.

Hide and seek...is one of our favorite game at home. I will go hide and he will find me but the funny part is when its his turn to hide. He will only hide his face....ye betul. Macam ostriches hide their head in the ground...my son does the similar. Ooo TuhanKu..pecah perut ketawa tengok kan si Haziq.

When he does something that makes me geram...I sometimes blurted out Ya Allah Haziq....aha...Haziq reply ape you may ask. Ya awwah ajiiiq...and kerutkan his forehead *ibu:slap forehead again and again*

I took him on his first train ride last two weeks. We took the monorail from Jln Imbi to KL Sentral to meet up with my friends. Haziq just cannot sit still. One moment he wants to stand by the window, the next he wants to stand own his own and hold the pole, next he wants to sit on my lap. Lucky there were not many people in the train. Had lunch with ex-colleagues at McD. Haziq saw the fries and immediately wanted them. Sigh...he refuses his porridge. This is not good. After this no more fast food for us. We took the cab back to Jln Imbi where I parked the car as I do not have the energy anymore to chase after Haziq running around in KL Sentral with extra two paper bags in my hands. hahaha...

From our balcony we can see the train passes-by. We would usually sit there and watch the train...Haziq will wave and say baa tain...He will quickly run outside when he hears the train just to wave at it but now it's either he's getting smarter or lazier (im hoping it's the former) that whenever he hears the train from inside our apartment, he just wave bye bye without running outside anymore and nonchalantly continue with what ever he is doing haha.

I met up with another ex-colleague last week at Great Eastern Mall. While waiting we went into the British India outlet. I was going thru the stuff with Haziq (surprisingly) willing to sit in his stroller. I asked him..Haziq...is this one pretty???cantik tak??? teeeiikkkkk....semua cantik for Haziq. Wallet Ibu kopak la if like that Haziq:p

When I hand him his milk bottle, he will say cih. Been trying to make him say thank you but so far no success yet.

When you tell him the food or drink is hot, Haziq will blow at it hehe.


So there....I've managed to jot down whatever that I can remember at the moment. One day I will let Haziq read this and hope we'll have a good laugh together :)



My big boy

The Journey To The Flåm

This is a very overdue post but I must put an entry so that I won't forget this part of my life. hehe..



About 3 weeks back another two colleagues and I went here.(You could also go here). The journey took us about 9 hours I kid you not. We started from Sandefjord at about 9.30p.m and reached there around 6.30a.m the next morning. And got lost few times on the way...This place that we went is nearer to Bergen compared to Sandefjord. The temperature went as low as 2C as we drove up to the otherside of the mountains.

It was still too early to check-in into our apartment, so we took a nap in the car. Obviously the rest of the Norwegian sleep in their caravan, but out of nowhere 3 Malaysians slept in their small Korean car hehe.

Our apartment is located in Underdal, small town near by with a population of 80 people and a small church that could only fit in 40 people at a time. Underdal is famous for its fjord and waterfalls and goat cheese. Yup, I tasted it. Strong taste with stronger after taste that comes later.

Enjoy the pictures as usual...




the drivers....magnificent view....breath taking...


our apartment is just beside the river.....



the only shop in underdal.....look at the scenery....need i say more???

the waterfall....the railway track of the the flåmbana....love this picture of me n my housemate....nice


ignore me in the picture...but look at the fjord behind me hehe....in the flåm museum....beautiful view from the top..



We went on the train to the top....went on the fjordsafari tour on a boat....and took lotsa pictures. I think all of us had fun. Too bad we didn't not have time to go kayakking and jungle hiking...We said goodbye to The Flåm at about noon and started our journey back home. The magnificent breath-taking scenery will forever remain in my mind and if you happen to be in Norway, this is a must place to go. :)

note: pictures courtesy of Anas, the photographer of the journey....thanks bing ;)

I bumped into this piece while blog-hopping. And I think it's so beautiful.



Because to the depths of me, I long to love one person,
With all my heart, my soul, my mind, my body...

Because I need a forever friend to trust with the intimacies of me,
Who won't hold them against me,
Who loves me when I'm unlikable,
Who sees the small child in me,
and Who looks for the divine potential of me...

Because I need to cuddle in the warmth of the night
With someone who thanks God for me,
With someone I feel blessed to hold...

Because marriage means opportunity
To grow in love in friendship...
Because marriage is a discipline
To be added to a list of achievements...

Because marriages do not fail, people fail
When they enter into marriage
Expecting another to make them whole...

Because, knowing this,I promise myself to take full responsibility
For my spiritual, mental and physical wholeness create me,
I take half of the responsibility for my marriage
Together we create our marriage...

Because of this understanding
The possibilities are limitless.

Mari Nichols-Haining
The possibilities are limitless indeed, I agree. I like this part :
Who loves me when I'm unlikable,
Who sees the small child in me,
note: zai is layaning the other side of her. the melodrama,sensitive,passionate side...haha...usually zai is not like this...honest...gosh...this does not make any sense does it.

Lazy Mode : On

My lazy mode has switched on. I'm in no mood to do anything including blogging though I have stories to share with you babes. I read the local (read: Malaysia) newspaper online and I must say....what the **** is going on over there back home. People accusing people, dad and son raping their own flesh and blood, I can go on and on and babble but I shouldn't. It's so frustrating to read the local news. Sigh...
On a different note....How's all my blogger friends and mommies? I do hope everyone is fineeeee and dandyyyyy...
My housemate has went back and she helped me bring back some of my stuff a.k.a Haziq's stuff. I bought lotsa clothes for Haziq, a pair of shoes, a hat, and toys. haha..I'm a sucker. Except for my new baby which I will introduce to you soon, I did not buy much for myself.
I'm counting my days here and obviously I can't wait to go back. I'm anticipating our family trip in mid August. Everything is settled, I'm just waiting for the hotel voucher from the agent. Hope everything goes well (Ameen) ;)
I talked to Haziq on the phone last night. We had a long conversation. Told him I'll be back soon to which he replied can't wait Ibu (in his own language of course haha). I am soooo missing that boy. I know no amount of presents will ever replace the time I missed being with him but I will my best to compensate it.
Haha..I think this post is going nowhere. Eh...Aussino is still having sale kan...kan...bestnyer.....Okla peeps...I gotta go. Take care :)
