An Evening at the Park

This is an overdue post heh....

We brought Haziq to Tmn Jaya last Sunday. He's okay when there's Hubby and I around but come other kids around him, he'll refuse to move at all, he'll squat down and just look around...aiiyyyooo....this kiddo of mine is not taking strangers presence too well....how la...now am thinking of taking him to Tumbletots on weekends so that he can mingle more with babies/toddlers his age....hhhhmmmmm.....

Anyways....Haziq is more independent nowadays. He wants to do everything on his own and he just can't sit still. He'll follow me everytime I want to go to the kitchen. He likes to play with the plastic containers that I've arranged neatly in the cabinet.aaarrggghhhh....makes me go beserk ok. And I think he's got a temper too....oooo dear....I see a little bit of me in him....hehe

Enjoy the pictures...




takut to let go of his Ayah's hand hehe


hhhhmmmm...what's over there???






Muka2 cuak Haziq hehe


Hello there....





Just the three of us (I look fat in this picture kan...benciiiii...)


He was cranky....dah penat jalan kot :p


*****************************************************

On a different note, today is my last day serving TheCompany. It's finally happening. I'm leaving the nest to fly up high chewaaahhh....Wish me luck :)


Have a good weekend


muaaahhssss
zai

Am Counting The Days....

.....coz I'm leaving TheCompany.

Yes I am. I am now serving my notice period and will start at my new office after CNY and will be on leave starting 26/01..yippie... Sigh....I still can't believe that I made the decision to leave. And the decision wasn't an easy one...well at least it was not as easy as I imagined it to be...not as easy as compared to when I left my previous company. Back then, I never had any doubts or second thoughts. Once I got the offer, I straight away submitted my resignation letter and never turned back. But however, this time it was kinda different. I was contemplating....half of me eager to go out explore the oil and gas industry...half of me is already complacent in TheCompany. You see, TheCompany is the largest shipping company in Malaysia and doing very well. A few have come to me and ask me to consider all the benefits that I am gonna miss out should I leave TheCompany. Heck...this morning My Big Boss asked me to stay and consider the opportunities that awaits me. (Tibe2 offer to send me to Singapore for the conversion project going on at Keppel Shipyard...aritu orang beria nak pegi...tak lepas cheh)... But....

...I don't see myself going any further here
...I'm just not happy anymore with few things here
... it's not all about the money....it's also about job satisfaction...I was happy when I was at site involving in projects...but now that I'm in the office....sigh....how shall I say this....it's just sooooo mundane...

although I must admit TheCompany has given me a valuable opportunity to gain experience being in a project and opened up that small window for me get in the industry that is currently booming in Malaysia, I'm grateful for that. tq...tq...tq...now it's time for me to take the risk and push myself to take up the challenge that's calling me....I'm off to a foreign company...though I won't be at the site but this time I'll be doing something different. Hope everything goes well....wish me luck okay peeps....

Have a nice and quality weekend with family muaaahhhsss...

Zai

11 months....

He's 11 months alright and his Ibu here is exhausted chasing after him.... :p

at his age...

.....he can walk confidently with slight wobbling....he can even walk backwards...wakaka...when he sees you walking towards him....

.....he babbles more...and utter few words which sounded like Ibu...Abah...Apple ( this one my mom thought him hehe)

Babycenters says at 11 months...

Words and wordlike sounds are now spilling out of your baby, and he's able to use them meaningfully. As his brain continues to develop, so does his ability to reason and speak. At this age, your baby can probably imitate word sounds and inflections check...

Encourage his interest in language and his understanding of two-way communication by being an avid listener and responding to his sounds. To polish his memory skills, play games like patty-cake and peek-a-boo. check . This morning he pulled up his blanket and played pee-a-boo with me while I was getting dressed hehe


He may be able to follow simple one-step directions, such as "Please bring me the ball" or "Pick up the spoon." check I asked him to check on his Ayah whether he's ready or not, Haziq went in to our room and searched for his Ayah...hehe cute

.........Haziq still bite me....oouucchhh....he bite me on my hand...arm...and when i'm sitting on the floor he'll come from behind and bite my shoulder....aarrgghhh....ape hal la plak kan. Geram betul makcik....sabar ajer la. Sometimes when it's blaaarrrddyyy hurt, I'll scream and Haziq akan terkejut and cry...iskk..isskk....kena tahan sakit la nampaknyer :p

Enjoy the pictures below...Haziq in action and my youngest brother amazed looking at his nephew hehe...Ooo...please excuse the blurness of the picture...me need to get one of those DSLRs soon hehehe :p


this is a piece of cake Ibu...look at me...


See...i can walk and babble all at the same time... :)


Eh....my behind also you wanna snap ker Ibu huhu

Doa

Hi peeps...a colleague gave me this. Sempena Awal Muharram this Thursday. The Doa Akhir Tahun to be read tomorrow after Solat Asar while the Doa Awal Tahun after Solat Maghrib :)


Doa Awal Tahun & Doa Akhir Tahun


Barangsiapa yang membaca doa awal tahun ini, insya Allah dirinya akan terpelihara daripada gangguan dan godaan syaitan di sepanjang tahun tersebut.

Doa Awal Tahun:




Maksudnya:

Allah SWT berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad SAW, ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabat baginda dan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.

Wahai Tuhan, Engkaulah yang kekal abadi, yang qadim. yang awal dan ke atas kelebihanMu yang besar dan kemurahanMu yang melimpah dan ini adalah tahun baru yang telah muncul di hadapan kami. Kami memohon pemeliharaan dariMu di sepanjang tahun ini dari syaitan dan pembantu-pembantunya dan tentera-tenteranya dan juga pertolongan terhadap diri yang diperintahkan melakukan kejahatan dan usaha yang mendekatkanku kepadaMu Wahai Tuhan Yang Maha Agung dan Maha Mulia.

Wahai Tuhan Yang Maha pengasih dari mereka yang mengasihi dan Allah berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad. Nabi yang ummi dan ke atas ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabatnya dan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.




Barangsiapa yang membaca doa akhir tahun ini, maka syaitan akan berkata:
"Hampalah kami di sepanjang tahun ini".

Doa Akhir Tahun:





Maksudnya:

Allah SWT berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad SAW, ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabat baginda dan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.

Wahai Tuhan, apa yang telah aku lakukan dalam tahun ini daripada perkara-perkara yang Engkau tegah daripada aku melakukannya dan aku belum bertaubat daripadanya. Sedangkan Engkau tidak redha dan tidak melupakannya. Dan aku telah melakukannya di dalam keadaan di mana Engkau berupaya untuk menghukumku, tetapi Engkau mengilhamkanku dengan taubat selepas keberanianku melakukan dosa-dosa itu semuanya. Sesungguhnya aku memohon keampunanMu, maka ampunilah aku. Dan tidaklah aku melakukan yang demikian daripada apa yang Engkau redhainya dan Engkau menjanjikanku dengan pahala atas yang sedemikian itu. Maka aku memohon kepadaMu.

Wahai Tuhan! Wahai yang Maha Pemurah! Wahai Yang Maha Agung dan wahai Yang Maha Mulia agar Engkau menerima taubat itu dariku dan janganlah Engkau menghampakan harapanku kepadaMu Wahai Yang Maha Pemurah. Dan Allah berselawat ke atas penghulu kami Muhammad, ke atas ahli keluarga dan sahabat-sahabatnya dan mengurniakan kesejahteraan ke atas mereka.

Priceless!!!

Early this morning at about 4a.m Haziq suddenly woke up and cried. Thought he wanted milk rupenyer his diaper dah berat hehe. So I changed him and sempat la played with him. Haziq likes it when you terkejut and melatah. He will laugh at you...infact he giggles. kelakar...well anyways....after changing him I placed him back at his place and his Ibu here wanted to resume sleep. I smiled at him and told him to go back to sleep. He crawled to me and rested his head on my arm (senang citer...lebeh kurang baring bawah my ketiak la...hehe). He looked up at me and continue to comfortably lay beside me until I think I fell asleep first....

I think it was sweet...I think it was a priceless moment......him wanting to sleep beside me.....waaaaa.....my baby dah besar...iskk...iskkk...sedey campur happy campur terharu....

Happy New Year Peeps...

New year resolutions??? Hhhmmmm...been thinking about it and decided that everything that I do will always be for Haziq, my number one priority at the moment well of course hubby and family is also in the list hehe

...work harder for Haziq....play as often as possible with Haziq for Haziq, save more money for Haziq, be healthy for Haziq, smile more for Haziq, for Haziq...for Haziq... :)

did I mention that Haziq can walk on his own now...hehe...will post pictures nanti ok....for this post enjoy the picture below :)


"i think there's something wrong with the trekker but don't worry ibu,i'll fix it :)"
"i think that should do it....yupppp good as new"
"bruuummm...bruummm...."
"look...one hand..."

"ibu wanna interframe gak...ish...ish..."

"bye...bye.."


"see how ibu sampai senget dukung saya...hehe"

Puasa

Saya puasa hari ini, Insya Allah, but my clock says it's only 10.04a.m and my stomach is growling and my eyes are almost shut. sigh....Hari ini 9 Zulhijjah and an email from the Badan Islam M**C yesterday says that :

Untuk makluman semua Muslimin/Muslimat, esok sempena 9 zulhijjah kita semua disunatkan berpuasa.

Fadhilat berpuasa pada hari 9 Zulhijjah 1428H.

Maksud Hadith:


“ Berpuasa pada hari 9 Zulhijjah mengampunkan dosa selama dua tahun ya itu bagi tahun ini dan tahun akan datang”

Hhhmmmm...haruslah cuba mengambil kesempatan ini kan. Ucapkanlah selamat berjaya kepada saya dalam menempoh hari ini yang saya rasa amat lambat berlalu huhu...

p/s: td tgk website belguim airport...ada gambo chocolates sedap2...terliur la plak kan :p

10 months old

My baby is 10 months old today. Happy Birthday little one.

Haziq took his first step the other day. From the sofa he took 2-3 steps to get to me. And this morning he did it again. I was holding him while he was standing and slowly I let him go. He walked to me. So comel. He needs more practice. Takpe, we'll work on that okay sweetie pie.

He now weighs 12 kg and approximately 81cm in height.
He takes Muesli & Apple cereal for breakfast, my home-made porridge for lunch and dinner. He also love his baby biscuits. Basically he eats anything you feed him, so I have to be careful with what I feed him.

He likes to babble a lot especially when he wants to sleep.

His favorite advertisement is the new ribena ad...i think it's ribena hehe...and he also likes the TV3 ad...the one that often comes out before the 8pm news. Cartoon pun dia suka. I think I'm letting him watch too much TV. Have to control a bit after this. Don't want him to be a fan of the idiot box too much kan.

He knows how to show his preferences....what he wants....and what he doesn't want. He express it very clearly....waaaaaaaa....hehe

Last time he doesn't know how to flip my motorola V3X. Now he's an expert.huhu...We gave him a dummy handphone....dia tak mo....

He doesn't ride his trekker...he likes to push it around the hall then terbalik kan the trekker and godek2 it. Issshhh....nak jadi mekanik ape anak saya nih.

He can't fit into his bumbo sitter anymore so he plays with it....terbalik kan...tolak saner sini hehe

I'm enjoying every moment spent with him :)

Haha...I can go on and on talking bout the lil' fella...shall stop here coz now I want to concentrate on 'facebook'ing....wakakka

adios peeps...

This And That...........in Random Order

Last Monday there was a fire drill at the office...cheh...of all the days they picked Monday. The day I have to drag myself to work only to be instructed to walk down the stairs from the 28th floor. Boleh tahan berpeluh gak la kan. Nasib baik tak berlecak ketiak :p We gathered in front of the Main Post Office and somehow I felt like I was at a carnival. People was scattering everywhere. Did I mention we got free drinks and ice cream?hehe. I think there was a demonstration on how to put out fire but colleagues and I malas nak layan. Nothing beats the offshore training fire fighting exercise. So we all tak heran :p

My birthday last week, hubby brought us to Tupai2 for dinner. Actually been wanting to go there since I was carrying Haziq. Tapi somehow tak kesampaian until last week. So kire macam mengidam tak dapat. That explains why org2 tua kate biler Haziq was drooling, they said there's something yang I indam but didn't get. Haaaa....agaknye la tuh. Anyways...the food was ok. What I like most was the service. Sangat cepat...best. ye la kan...when you dine out with a baby who just can't sit still, you'd want everything to be fast so that you can go back ASAP hehe. But that night Haziq was well behaved the first half hour. He charmed the waiters there and even played with his soft toy but not long after he got restless sitting in the highchair. He started to turn left and right and even tried to stand on the chair. Hubby took his stroller and we gave him his milk, he drank a bit and then started to stand on the stroller. Aarrggghhhh....by this time all our orders are ready. We had to take turns eating. Hubby ate first while I entertained his Royal Highness :p Come my turn our Siakap steam dah sejuk...cheh...but the buttered prawn was delicious nyum...nyum...


Ibu...what are we having tonight? hehe


Saturday we went to Rafiqah's place for her two heroes birthday bash, Ashraff & Aliff. Haziq wore the Spidey t-shirt we bought him. The party in my opinion was a huge success. So many people came....so much food to be consumed hehe....and I sooooo love the favors. I have no idea where she found the time and energy I must say to do all that. Kudos to you babe!!! And it was splendid to have finally met you for the first time. I actually saw several familiar faces at the party. Ye la kan...blog-hopping banyak sangat hehe. Aidan & Adnan's mommy....I saw you too actually...hehe...we left early coz Haziq dah mula nak cranky,it was his nap time. So we excused ourselves. First we wanted to go back straight but Hubby tibe2 ajak g PJ. Jalan2 kat Taman Jaya...don't know what got into him. Somehow Haziq didn't want to sleep in the car coz he was too busy playing with his new rattle...thank you to Aunty Rafiqah :)


Bestnyer rattle ni...how come Ibu never bought it for me ek? Oooo...check out that spidey sticker on my hand...cool kan..



Alaaa...Ibu ni...orang minum susu pun nak snap a picture :p

facebook...ooo facebook....

I'm addicted to facebook...it's true when they say if you can't beat them, join them. hehe...I'm a slave to the true false questions.I like to superpoke people too...fun....fun :)

So peeps...if you don't see me in friendsters that much then I'll be busy poking people...throwing sheep...drawing graffiti and many more....muahahah....i'm liking this...

Must Read!

My good friend Shamsul forwarded this to the rest of the gang some time ago....pleasure reading :)


A man escapes from prison where he has been for 15 years. He breaks
into a house to look for money and guns and finds a young couple in bed.

He orders the guy out of bed and ties him to a chair. While tying the
girl to the bed he gets on top of her, kisses her neck. Then gets up
and goes into the bathroom.

While he's in there, the husband tells his wife, 'Listen, this guy's
an escaped convict! Look at his clothes! He probably spent lots of time
in jail and hasn't seen a woman in years. I saw how he kissed your neck.
If he wants sex, don't resist. Don't complain. Do whatever he tells you.

Satisfy him no matter how much he nauseates you. This guy is probably
very dangerous. If he gets angry, he'll kill us. Be strong. Honey, I
love you.'

To which the wife responds, 'He wasn't kissing my neck. He was
whispering in my ear. He told me he was gay. He thought you were cute
and asked if we had any Vaseline. I told him it was in the bathroom.
Be strong honey,

I love you too !!




haha...amik ko!

cheers

Try This Peeps

Your Driving Is is: 53% Male, 47% Female

According to studies, you drive both like a guy and a girl. This means you're a pretty average driver, with typical quirks. Occasionally you're frustrated and or a little reckless, but that's the exception - not the norm.

Do You Drive Like a Guy or a Girl?

28 already

Happy Birthday to me :)

haha....so I'm 28 years old today. Two years more then I'll hit the big 30. hehe....I have no worries about that, after all they're just numbers. What's important is how I feel inside, right. I feel great. Life is great so far Alhamdulillah. Let's see, at 28, I have a career, a small family of my own, a hubby who is very patient with my kerenah, thank you dear, I have Haziq, the ever demanding lil' precious, family and friends. (notice tak I put career first...I only noticed it after I wrote the whole sentence, does this mean I put my career before my family?..oooppsss tak sengaja...tapi malas nak betul kan..family comes first :p)
I have a little bit of everything a person could ever dream off in life and couldn't ask for more. However, a new wardrobe and a brand new car would be nice...chewah... :)

Cheers

p/s: hubby kate nak bawak gi dinner malam ni...the three of us...yahoooo...tk yah masak :p


My Precious and I

Shop...Shop....Shop

I think I'm in the mood to shop ajer this last few weeks....huhu. Been buying stuff for Haziq like there's no tomorrow. I bought him several t-shirts and pants at Parkson and then I told myself...ok that's it for this month. Aaarrrggghhh...too early to say such. Yesterday I went KLCC for a meeting at Tower 1 and guess where did I go after the meeting...Mothercare and made more damage to my purse sigh. Bought the pack of 3 long sleeve t-shirt, a bundle of socks and a pair of shoes.Ooo before that I had lunch at Ampang Park and saw Spiderman t-shirt on sale huhu..harus la beli kan. And just moment ago I was browsing the online shop for more of his stuff but managed to control myself :p You just can't help yourself when it comes to your precious kan kan...

On a different note, this month alone I'm (including Haziq and Hubby la kan) fully book on every weekend. Yup...there's weddings to attend...engagement do to attend and also a birthday party. Insya Allah we're gonna try to attend all the functions. I have also started planning Haziq lil' birhday bash next year...ok la maybe it's still too early tapi I'm super excited. We plan to have it on the 9th Feb 08..tentatively...tgk la macam maner. But one thing's for sure it won't be at our place coz it's too small and urs truly malas nak kemas after the party heh :)
I need to survey places to have the party...where to get the birthday cake...I know one website that offers cool cakees and another one at the Ikano (rsaenyer la)...what else...will need balloons etc...etc...sigh...no idea where to start...I need to make inviation cards...waaaa....agak banyak la kan...hhhhmmmmm wish me luck peeps...

I don't know how to end this post...dah malas hehe...so...adios babes :)


hello my name is haziq...what's yours???

Squash Partner

I need to work out...so kalau ada sesape yang nak main squash...sila2 la ajak saya ok...haven't played for over a year now. I'm not that good but can pukul the bola la hehe... :)

Have a nice Monday peeps.

I'm Evil!

You Are 34% Evil

A bit of evil lurks in your heart, but you hide it well. In some ways, you are the most dangerous kind of evil.

How Evil Are You?

haha...i knew there's evil somewhere inside me...so beware...don't say i never warn you!!!!!

halooooo

Somehow it's nice to be back at work even though I had to drag myself out of the bed this morning. I took 2 days leave last week and spent it at home with my lil' chinese baby and his Grandma a.k.a my Mama. So I was a SAHM for 4 days....woohhoooo...best ok! I wish I can be a permanent SAHM but this arrangement works for me too.

Thursday I went to Bangsar to get my eyebrow done. Initially Mama was suppose to come along and Haziq as well, but since by noon Haziq was already sleepy. So I went alone. Managed to drop by Bangsar Village's MPH and bought yet another Baby Record Book for me to jot down Haziq'a milestone...progress...etc. Sigh....I'm weak I know...I couldn't help myself coz the book is so sute and it features a lot of which that is related to Haziq's development :p I also bought two books for Haziq...wanted to get him flashcards as well but then remembered that Mama has already bought one for him...so next time laaa.

Friday, brought Mama to visit her eldest sister nun di Bukit Beruntung...huhhh...so far away ok. Haziq just cannot sit still for even a second. I think I'm losing more weight ever since Haziq is very much mobile. hehe. Keeping Haziq in his car seat for along time is also close to impossible...sigh...

On Saturday, Haziq got a birthday party invitation from my colleague's 6 y/o daughter. The two of us went. Haziq behaved well except when put on the floor....hehe..there was a clown entertaining the kids and I think Haziq like him.

Mama went back on Sunday morning and the three of us (read : myself, hubby and Haziq) headed to Selayang to my IL's place.

That was pretty much how I spent my leave. Hope to do the same next month. Can't wait :)

Being 9 months.....

Haziq can do the following.........

immitate what you're saying but amat la pelat kan...like for instance....when I say...Ayah....he'll say...Atah...Ibu...be....but when it comes to Abah (saje test dia...)...Abah...fluently...haha...probably it's easier to pronounce kot...

sitting is just not his favorite thing to do....he loves to stand...cling on you and try to walk....he will grab anything that's on you...your clothes...and yes my scarf of course....so if you see me with my scarf not properly in placed and shaped....its Haziq's artistic touch okay... :)

crawling is peanuts for him now...hehe...remember last month's development when I mentioned that he still can't crawl properly instead mengesut....well not anymore...he crawl faster than I can....yes...sometimes we race :p

he loves his bath time....whenever he sees me preparing his warm bath in his mickey mouse pool...he will quickly crawl towards the bathroom....tak sabar-sabar si kecik nih....he loves his rubber duckie...yes...he loves to throw them away...makes me go nuts with him

me leaving him in the room with his Ayah will make him go bananas....I definitely love this part....makes me feel veli important to him chewahhh. Haziq is very selective nowadays. You can be a stranger to him but if he decides that he likes you, taking him from me or hubby is not a problem. But if he's not comfortable with you....you can even be his grandpa...hehe...he will cry his lungs out when you take him....this happened several time when my FIL carried him...not that I am encouraging this but I can't help it if he has his preferences kan kan...

yesterday we noticed when the TV showed azan for Maghrib...Haziq listened attentively and voiced out his version of azan after each line...bersungguh sungguh dia. No pictures though coz both hubby and I were busy watching him.

Sigh....dah besar anak Ibu sorang nih ek.... :)


giggling away watching me making funny faces...

A colleague forwarded me this email. I've read it long time ago. Long before I was a mother. Reading it now somehow gave me a different impact and it touched my heart dearly. Thought I'd share it with you.... :)

BEING A MOTHER

After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to
dinner and a movie.

She said, "I love you, but I know this other woman loves you and would love
to spend some time with you."

The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my MOTHER, who has
been
a widow for 19 years,but the demands of my work and my three children had made it possible to visit her only occasionally.That night I called to invite her to go out for dinner and a movie.

"What's wrong, are you well," she asked?
My mother is the type of woman who suspects that a late night call or a
surprise invitation is a sign of bad news.

"I thought that it would be pleasant to spend some time with you," I
responded. "Just the two of us."
She thought about it for a moment, and then said, "I would like that very
much."

That Friday after work, as I drove over to pick her up I was a bit
nervous. When I arrived at her house, I noticed that she, too, seemed to be nervous about our date. She waited in the door
with her coat on. She had curled her hair and was wearing the dress that she had worn to celebrate her last wedding anniversary.

She smiled from a face that was as radiant as an angel's. "I told my
friends that I was going to go out with my son,
and they were impressed,"she said, as she got into the car. "They can't
wait to hear about our meeting." We went to a restaurant that, although not elegant, was very nice and cozy. My mother took my arm as if she were the First Lady.

After we sat down, I had to read the menu. Her eyes could only read large
print. Half way through the entries, I lifted my eyes and saw Mom sitting there staring at me. A nostalgic smile was on her lips.

"It was I who used to have to read the menu when you were small," she
said.

"Then it's time that you relax and let me return the favor," I responded.
During the dinner, we had an agreeable conversation, nothing extraordinary but catching up on recent events of each other's life. We talked so much that we
missed the movie.

As we arrived at her house later, she said, "I'll go out with you again,
but only if you let me invite you." I agreed.

"How was your dinner date?" asked my wife when I got home.
"Very nice. Much more so than I could have imagined, "I answered.

A few days later, my mother died of a massive heart attack. It happened so
suddenly that I didn't have a chance todo anything for her. Some time later, I received an envelope with a copy of a restaurant receipt from the same place
mother and I had dined. An attached note said: "I paid this bill in
advance. I wasn't sure that I could be there; but
nevertheless, I paid for two plates - one for you and the other for your wife. You will never know what that night meant for me. I love you, son."

At that moment, I understood the importance of saying in time:
"I LOVE YOU" and to give our loved ones the time that they deserve.
Nothing in life is more important than your family. Give them the time
they deserve, because these things cannot be put off till "some other
time."


I love you, Ma...and I can't wait to spend time with you and Haziq this weekend :)

The Long Overdue Post/Updates

I am ashamed to confess that I did not post Haziq's updates when he turned 8 months.huhuu...my work was distracting me from blogging...hehe. So...I will to try capture everything that I wanted to share with you peeps in this post and also for my personal record. I warn you this post might be lengthy...it might not...it might be boring ....it might not...wakakka...

Haziq turned 8 months on Aidilfitri. Two days before Raya he decided to show of his ability to sit on his own with only his Pakcik witnessing it.Nope I was not there. I was busy running around doing last minute packing before heading back to Ipoh. Look below.




Then Hari Raya came. Haziq looked dashing in his very first own baju melayu. And this is our very first picture as a family. Sedondon gitu...biasa la...first time...beria...last year it was just hubby and I ....this year...look....ada la plak si kecik nih... :p



Haziq was the walking tabung. Well actually I did the walking for him and also the tukang simpan duit raya. Alhamdulillah...banyak gak duit raya yang Haziq dapat kumpul. Nanti Ibu will open up an account for you ye sayang. When? eerrrr....soon...soon.


Ibu, Ayah...how do I look? hehehe



Haziq after few hours in his baju melayu - panas la Ibu :p

At 8 and a half months, Haziq feels that he can do the following...







And lastly this is Haziq in his playpen after he got all tired trying to get our attention to pick him up....sorry dearest...we gotta train you to be independent and play own your own sometimes....hihiii...



Oooo yeah....Haziq still can't crawl properly. He will take few steps...give-up...and continue his ala combat crawling style. Sigh...kelakar la mamat sorang nih. To date, he now has 4 teeth on his upper gum and two on his lower and recently he just recovered from fever which turns out may be caused by the appearance of possibly two more teeth on his lower gum...hehehe....if you see him now please expect accessive saliva coming out from his mouth.... :p

Ok peeps....got to go....my Boss just asked on the status of the task he assigned. hehhee.Till then...take care ;)

Sob...Sob...Sob...

I have several overdue posts that I wanna share you peeps but photos not yet uploaded...so probably later ok. But today I wanna share with you something that happened this morning on the way to work.

As usual Hubby and I will send Haziq to his babysitter, Kak Ani. This morning we were a bit late than usual I guess that when we reached Kak Ani's house, she was already waiting outside looking at the road. This is normal actually. But today, after sending off Haziq, bid him goodbye and trying my very best not to look sad( yes, after almost 6 months sending Haziq to his babysitter, I still feel sad and guilty sigh), Kak Ani did not immediately go into her house, instead she stood there with Haziq in her arms and asked Haziq to bid goodbye to us. I usually do not have much problem sending off Haziq coz I will leave him at Kak Ani's doorstep and that was it. Kak Ani will close the door and later in the evening I will pick up Haziq. Like I said, this morning Kak Ani decided to wait until we were off to work....and why am I emphasizing on this so much???huhuhuuu...it broke my heart this morning when Haziq looked at us leaving him in the arms of a stranger. He just looked at us with an expressionless face. Neither did he made a sad face nor did he smile. He just watched us till we disappeared from his sight. I tried to compose myself and maintain a happy face while waving my hand. Alaaa....kenape la Kak Ani had to wait till we were gone. It was hard for me I tell ya...I keep on wondering what's on his mind. Was wondering where Ayah and Ibu are going? Tension betul ok....sigh....now I can't think of anything else but to go back and fetch Haziq and spend time with him.... :) cepat la hubby sampai my office...bye peeps....

I'm Still Here....

Since been a while since I last blogged kan. Been busy with work and managing the family. I kinda miss blogging. I did some blog-hopping though but no time to blog. Sigh....ok peeps....got to go. Nanti update ok.. :)

Lethargic...

How's your puasa so far??? It's been tiring and lethargic for me this Ramadhan. I've been cooking for berbuka almost everyday....yup...believe it...and I never thought I would ever say this...but...I think I'm starting to enjoy cooking...hehe...my mom would be so proud of me if she hears this. Knowing that this daughter of hers just hates to be in the kitchen. I guess marriage life changed me...in a good way of course. Before this I have no clue at all what you need to have to cook masak lemak cili padi udang...now...hey...I'm getting good. :) Ok la kan...considering I'm a beginner. I think the most satisfying part would be to see Hubby dig-in and finish his meal....I feel like a complete wife...chewahhh...and I also cook porridge for lil' Haziq every morning. I only feed him with cereals if I wake up late...and so far it only happens once. Hopefully it won't happen again...hehe.

On a different note, I simply can't wait for my moist steam fruitcake that I ordered from here to be ready. Yummy....tengok bawah ni....mouth watering ke tak...hehe...ini semua gara-gara baca blog Rafiqah...terus order then and there.... :p



Got to go...I have alot to tell but no energy to type it out....will resume some other time...to all...Selamat Berbuka Puasa...ada sesape nak ajak saya and family berbuka...sila la ajak...hehe.... :)

Al-Fatihah

I got this in the email this morning:

Assalammualaikum W.B.T,

Kawan2 sekelian,

Baby kepada salah seorang sahabat U*P kita, saudari F***h A***a (A*u) telah meninggal dunia petang semalam disebabkan oleh penyakit saraf yg dideritainya semenjak lahir.

Oleh itu, sama-samalah kita menghadiahkan Al-Fatihah & mendoakan akan kesejahteraan roh-nya ~ Al-Fatihah.

Best Regards,


Tears rolled down my cheek. My heart goes out to her and hope she will be strong to overcome this. I suddenly realised that I am so grateful Haziq was born normal and healthy.Alhamdulillah....I just cannot imagine being in her position and I don't think I ever want to. I wanna go back and hug Haziq :(

Al-Fatihah....

Happy Birthday Haziq

Haziq turns 7 months today. Wow...can't believe it. Dah besar anak Ibu sorang nih ek. Sometimes I just can't keep up with him. He's so fast...seriously....I turn away to do something, in split second he's already a meter away from me. He still can't crawl properly...but he mengesut...he tried lifting up his bum few times but only got him forward few inches...hehe....he likes to sit when I put him in that position but still can't still on his own. Yesterday we were at a groceries shop and suddenly there was a loud sound of a big bike passing through and Haziq just went beserk trying to find where the sound came from. Imagine me..holding Haziq on one hand...keep in mind he is 10 kg now....another hand holding stuffs to buy....and then Haziq turning left and right searching for the sound...terhoyong hayang saya ok. After that the walk to the car was another agony (over kan),the moment I placed Haziq in his carseat and myself at the driver's seat....I sighed and almost wanted to cry....wakakak...not that I'm complaining pasal carrying Haziq but more of tensed that I get tired carrying Haziq easily. I really need to boost my stamina and build up some muscles...hehe.

On another note, Haziq can now say mama fluently although that's not exactly what I want him to call me tapi tkpe la kan. Will teach him to call me Ibu everyday.He is such an attention seeker. Kalau tak tengok dia and talk to him he'll get angry. Since he now likes to explore everything around him, this would include stuff at the tv cabinet. He will drag himself to it and start to reach out and grab whatever that he can. When I call out his name and tell him not to do such along with a straight garang face...he will look at me...smile and then continue with his mission....to grab anything that is within his reach. Aiseeeehhhh....I just can't leave him alone like I used to for awhile. But then again, this is part and parcel of being a mommy kan...kan.... :)Oooo...yeah....Haziq and the tv remote control are bestfriends....kalau dah ada kat tangan dia...he won't look at you at all....so we have to keep it away from him tapi kadang2 kan when I want to keep him quiet...I bagi dia main...huhuu...

Oooo...I got this from Babycenter today & I think it's a very useful info.

How can I identify a fever?
At 7 months, you know your baby pretty well and will probably be able to tell if something's amiss. To do a basic fever check, kiss or touch your baby's forehead — this simple test can be surprisingly accurate. If he feels warmer than usual, use a thermometer to confirm your suspicion and get a precise measure of his temperature. Although you often hear that a normal temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius), the reading for a healthy baby may fall anywhere between 97 and 100.4 degrees F (36 and 38 degrees C).

When should I worry?
Hard as it is to believe, a fever is your baby's friend — it means his body is heating up to fight off an infection. Nonetheless, call your baby's doctor if you're worried or if your baby has:
* a rectal temperature above 101 degrees F (38.3 degrees C), * an ear temperature above 100 degrees F (37.8 degrees C), or * an armpit temperature above 99 degrees F (37.2 degrees C).

Also call if the fever is accompanied by any of the following: difficulty breathing, appearance of small purple-red spots or large purple blotches on the skin, loss of appetite, inability to swallow, excessive drooling, a glossy-eyed or otherwise unusual appearance, or delirious, irritable, or otherwise unusual behavior. Mention these and any other symptoms to your doctor when you call.

What should I do to bring my baby's fever down?
Try removing layers of clothing, giving him a lukewarm tub or sponge bath, or letting him rest in a cool (not cold) room. Prevent dehydration by breast- or bottle-feeding frequently.

If these steps don't bring relief, call your baby's doctor to see if medication is in order. If it is, be sure to ask what doseage is appropriate at your baby's age — the safe amount is based on your baby's weight, which changes frequently. Remind the doctor if your baby is on any other medication, and never give a baby aspirin, which can cause Reye's syndrome in a child with a fever. If you can't reduce your baby's fever within an hour, call the doctor again.


Bagus kan info ni. Good thing I bought the digital thermometer kat Parenthood Exhibition few weeks back. Tak yah nak worry and tak sure whether he has temperature or not. Just check jer...and....Ibu and Ayah Haziq pun beria check temperature masing2 wakakka...

I leave you with some pictures of Haziq in action.


Jacket Ayah ni macam best ajer....I want it....hope Ibu is not looking...hehe

My Long Weekend by Haziq Danial

Hi...today Ibu said I can write in her blog coz she wants me to practice my writing skills...vocab...bla...bla...so here I am. How was your long weekend??I had a wonderful one. It started with attending Aunty Parv's birthday bash at The Apartment, The Curve, Friday night. Ibu's close friends were there and I know that she had fun that night. I had fun too mingling with Ibu's friends. hehehe...Actually I don't really know how well the party went coz I slept even before they started their dinner, it was already past my bedtime. I decided not to give Ibu and Ayah a hard time putting me to sleep so without them noticing it I was already in la-la land. I'm a good boy :). So you can say that I missed the blowing candle part...the cutting cake part...and so on.But I woke up just in time for photo sessions....hehehe...of course I won't wanna miss that. No photos from our camera coz my uncle, Pak Ngah borrowed it.On the way back home, I heard Ibu said to Ayah "Haziq behaved well tonight, he's a big boy now kan". They thought I was not listening but I was and I smiled myself back to sleep.hehehe...

Saturday afternoon we headed back to Ayah's kampung. It's my first time going back so I was excited. Let me just brief you of my firsts:

1) it was the first time I played with a kitten. I reached out my hand and the lil' kitten reached out his paw.hehehe....it was fun but Ayah won't let me go on playing with the kitten cz he's afraid it will scratch me. Too bad...I really liked playing with it....

2) it was my first time seeing a rooster....but I like the kitten more....cuter :)

3) it was my first time mingling with all my neneks on Ayah's side and I must say...they are all very friendly and I think they adore me soooo much...serious....they hugged me...kissed me....pinched my cheek...oouuccchhh....

4) it was my first time sleeping under the big kelambu. I was fine with it but Ibu and Ayah can't stand it...Ayah felt hot sleeping under it...Ibu felt suffocated, so in the end we're good without the kelambu. hehehe...fortunately ada ubat nyamuk....can't imagine if there were none..... :p

5) it was my first time looking at a sawah padi....yup...probably when I'm bigger I will ask Ibu to let me play near the field. I'm sure it's gonna be all fun kan kan...

6) it was my first going to a pasar malam, where they sell fresh fish,crab, vegetables....straight from the sea and vegetables garden.some of the fish were still alive. I tried to reach out and touch them but Ibu wouldn't let me...boooohoooo....tkpe...Ibu...when I grow up...I wanna follow Ayah to his fishing trip...ok....

wowwww....I think I learned a lot during the weekend....can't wait for more fun trip. I wonder what Ibu has planned for the three of us.


Besides the fact that Ibu loves me...she also love to take my pictures while I'm sleeping....this is one of it...huhu...

No More Travelling....

I am super duper happy...elated to inform that I no longer need to go down to M**E every week like I've been doing for the past couple of months....yippie...:) pheewww...I don't want to do it anymore...and I hope I won't have to in the future. You know what...my last trip last Sunday till Tuesday...I left Haziq within the care of his Ayah...of course I have nothing to worry about....but the night my 'men' picked me up...Haziq was asleep in his car seat. He suddenly woke up when we were waiting to tapau our dinner. Being a mother who misses her baby terribly, I picked him up and kissed him and talked to him...but he did not respond to me, infact he looked away. Well...he just woke up...so I assumed he was a bit mamai la kan...ok...never mind...after a while I tried again talked to him and make funny faces...he usually would laugh out loud...but he didn't...again....hhhmmmm....then I asked Mr hubby to call out Haziq and make the usual funny faces....and guess what....Haziq gave Mr Hubby a smile and then laugh...aarrggghhhh....does this mean that he merajuk with me for leaving him for 3 blurdy days????waaaaaa.....saya sangat la terasa ok malam tuh....sedih tahap dewa...then I remembered when both Mr Hubby and Haziq sent me to the KLIA Transit station on Sunday.....I bid my goodbye to Haziq...kissing him and telling him to be good and not to trouble Ayah so much.....and you wanna know what he did???He turned away...yup he did that alright...he refused to look at me, instead he looked at Mr Hubby....see..this is what you get when you leave your baby every now and then...itu baru for only few days tuh...lum lagi for a longer period....I told my mom bout this and this is what she said....don't think that he's still a baby he doesn't understand what's going on around him. He knew that you were away and left him...maybe he merajuk la tuh.....My poor baby...I am soooooo sorry but my work requires me to go. But...hey my lil' pumpkin...your Ibu here won't go anywhere anymore....she'll be right here beside you attending to all your needs. I do not want to miss a thing... :)

On a different note.....today is a cool day for me coz my old-lembab-asyik-crash-pc has been replaced with a new Dell Intel (R) Pentium (R) 4, CPU, 2.60GHz, 1.00GB of RAM.....hahaha.....with a 19" monitor....la...la...laa.... :)

Okla...I have no idea how to end this post...so...babai.... :p

This Is A Quickie...

I managed to catch Transformer last Friday night with Mr hubby....yeyyy....best giler....Optimus Prime is one hell of a good looking robot...hehe...teruja saya melihat dia... :p

My Haziq turned 6 months yesterday. Happy 6th month birthday sayang...on his progress?

1) he can now roll over effortlessly....getting him ready is no longer a simple job....i turn around one second to take something...he's already on his tummy....the other day he tried to lift his bum...hehehe...but did not managed to go anywhere...i can see that he was frustrated...poor boy...slowly dear...but somehow he can drag himself from point A to point B.

2) ever since he starting teething....he shove everything in his hand into his mouth...so if you give him your hand..he will take it and bring it close to his mouth...it will look like he "salam" ing you....hehehe...so cute....

3) he called mama few times now....buu...also few times...hope later on he will learn to call me Ibu. No sign of calling Ayah yet though....:p

4) when having his bath...he likes to force me to put him in a sitting position...ehehe..anak Ibu nih...tak sabar2 nak duduk ye...I dare not let him seat unsupported cz I'm afraid his back is still not strong enough yet...but I let him seat every now and then with me holding him...ok kan...

I can't wait to see what's next...soon he will start to crawl...sit on his own....then he will wanna walk...sigh....I'm so excited.... :)

i think that's all for now....i got tonnes of work to do....ooo yeah...am now thinking on what to get Haziq for his birthday...hhhmmmm...any ideas friends???? ;)


The half year old boy is sleeping...notice the tak matching baju and seluar...yup...his baju got all wet coz he kept semburing his air liur...hehe



A kerek pose from Haziq....hehe

Happy Birthday Haziq Danial....I can't tell you how proud I am to be your Ibu... :)

He's Back...

Mr hubby is back.....yeeyyy...where did he go?? He went for his long-awaited fishing trip to Tasik Kenyir. He left on Tuesday night and only came back last night. Boy..am I relieved. I was a bit worried with him going all the way to Tasik Kenyir...you know with the uncertain weather nowadays and what have you in the jungle. But this is something that he really loves. Takkan la tak kasik pegi la kot kan. I'm trying to be an understanding wifey here.....lagipun...ehemmm...ehemmm...I plan to go to Jakarta next year with few colleagues...no certain plans yet but we're thinking....so...kalau Mr Hubby dah pegi fishing this year...next year it will be my turn la plak kan...kan.... :p

Anyways...5 days without Mr Hubby around was really challenging. Especially the part where I have send and pick up Haziq all by myself....not that I've never done it before but somehow it felt hard knowing that Mr Hubby is not a phone call away. So...I guess it was a good training for me as well. Taking care of Haziq alone at night was also another hurdle that I managed to pass through. Haziq sometimes buat perangai when its his bedtime. He likes to toss and turn continously sampai tertido...maner la tak Ibu dia ni kadang-kadang tensen....but Mr Hubby will patiently put him to sleep....while Ibu here continue with other housework.....hehe...so you can imagine how I had to deal with Haziq...aaarrggghhh...I so lack of patience but fortunately he was a good boy throughout...pheewww....On Friday I had to go down to Pasir Gudang, Johor for a meeting......alamak....had no choice but to ask my Mama to come down for the weekend to take care of lil' hero. Sib baik Mama memang ever willing to come down to see her 1st grandson....lega...but Mama went back on Sunday morning...it was just me and Haziq again. Sedih....

Mr Hubby called later in the afternoon saying that he will reach KL at night....so i have to pick him up at his office. So you can imagine I was counting the hour for Mr hubby to come home....hehehehe...so poyo...I miss him laaa.... :p Mr Hubby called at 10.30pm said he has arrived. Kesian Haziq...had to pick him up from his sleep and carry him to the car. He must be so sleepy that he didn't even open his eyes at all. Poor baby....but...when he saw Mr Hubby on the way up to our apartment....jeng..jeng....he gave Mr Hubby a sleepy-excited-I'm-happy-to-see-you smile it melt both our hearts....sob...sob....Mr hubby said dia rindu kan Haziq...eh...eh....Ibu haziq ni how la....:p


p/s: remember I said I'm off to a massage session on Saturday.....let's just say I am now a new rejuvenated person...seriously...the massage really makes me feel good and healthy...hehehe...the steam bath was a torture for me and my friend Miss Olyn. We even cheated by opening the door for a couple of minutes to cool down our body a bit. No one saw though....hehehe...can't wait for the next session.... :)

Updates lagi....

On Haziq

Despite the fact that Haziq can now meniarap effortlessly...he is still trying hard to roll himself....kelakar tengok...takpe...slowly my boy...you'll get there. I think he is experiencing stranger anxiety. Last week I brought him to my office coz I had to collect my tickets. My colleague dukung dia. He was ok when he saw me around but when I left him kejap to get the tickets....he cried beria ok. peeerrgghhh...satu office can hear...sabar ajer la. Plus I think he was not feeling well after his 5 months jab. Poor baby. I'm sorry I dragged you to my office. Actually I wanted to show you off to my colleagues. Huhuhu...He is also not very comfortable with my in laws. Nak kate tk selalu visit, I think he sees them at least every two weeks...in fact more frequent than he sees my parents....hhhmmmm....gotta perform an experiment. My parents are coming down this Thursday night after their last visit about 3 weeks ago...so we'll see how Haziq responds to them this time. Will make a report on that hehehe....Anyways...a visit to the clinic for his jab...showed that among others Haziq can so respond to his name and show preference on which toy he wants. Clever boy...

On a different note, I've been doing a lot of thinking...I mean a lot....there are still few more stuffs that I need to get for Haziq but am not sure which one to buy first. I need to get him:

1) A high-chair
2) A walker
3) This cool gadget from Mothercare that I saw in the brochure they sent me...
4) Another cool toy from Fisher Price
5) And also books for Haziq to read....yes I am nothing but an ambitious mother...I expect haziq to be more articulate than me....which I am not at all :p


So...these are just a few things that will be in my shopping cart for the next month or so...hehehe...

On Life

Life is beautiful....no complaints so far. I am hoping to unwind myself this Saturday with my best bud Miss Olyn. We're gonna treat ourselves to a session of massage....steam bath...blah...blah....waaaa....can't wait...jgn jeles ok.... :)

On Work

Very demanding but I can't help but feel it's also mundane hehe byk songeh la plak kan hehe. And this traveling every week is very tiring. Tapi saya kan kuli...maner lah boleh melawan :p



Ok la...I gotta go...my lunch hour is almost over hehe....till then...

adios...


Haziq trying to reach the camera...eh...eh...notty lil' tyke...

You Are 91% Real

There's hardly a person on this earth more real than you are.You have no problem showing people who you are, flaws and all.For you, there couldn't be any other way. Because it's way too stressful to live an inauthentic life.You're very comfortable with yourself. And because of this, you're able to live an exciting, interesting, and challenging life.

Updates...Updates...Updates.....

How was your weekend people??? Hope it was a good one. I know I enjoyed my weekend. Brought Haziq to a Paed yesterday morning to check on the rashes that he's been developing on his forehead and around his neck. Kesian anak Ibu...kureng comel skit. I don't know why but I think it's the weather. Haziq is following my footsteps. I couldn't stand hot weather when I was small. Siap the doctor said to my mom that her daughter ni cannot stay in Malaysia, she has to stay at a cold climate country. But...here I am. sheeesshhh....well anyways...as expected the Paed said it's slight eczema. On my side of the family there's asthma running down the generation while on Hubby's side of the family there's sinus....hence Haziq is susceptible to eczema...tsk...tsk...kesian dia. Doctor adviced to put air cond in our room and the whole house for that matter. Shall leave that to Mr Hubby la kan. Other development....Haziq is now 8.7 kg...walauweeii...no wonder la I can only larat to dukung dia full 15 minutes without any complaints....aiyyyooo....but no worries...at least that's what the Paed said la...so I have no worries at all...hopefully when Haziq dah start active merangkak...he will lose some weight or at least back on the normal progress pace. Another interesting progress is......................Haziq is developing 2 teeth at his lower gum...boleh????terkejut beruk Ayah and Ibu dia...me being the inexperience mom tk perasan pun (smack on the head). No wonder la air liur asyik meleleh mcm dam pecah jer ha ha. People have been telling me probably because last time when I was preggie ada benda yang I idam but didn't get. Rupenyer Haziq nk tumbuh gigi. Did I consume too much calcium last time?? I took calcium as prescribed by Dr AA. Hhhmmmmm...tk kisah la kan. After the visit to the Paed, we went to Carrefour Wangsa Maju to buy some stuff and headed back home. Haziq slept all the way. Sian ...penat....

Later in the evening, kami keluar lagi hehe. This time headed to The Curve to meet up with my girlfriends. Met Parveen whom I have not seen since January I think. Was heavily preggie mase tuh. hehe. Haziq had fun gak kot but he was a bit cranky at first. My fault...maybe he was still sleepy...ok I'm a bad Ibu....Malam tuh sume org slept early....hehe...tired from too much of outing. So...that was my weekend. Now gotta get back to work. I took a 10 minutes break to write this post. Coz if I don't, I will never have the time to.....cheers everybody...have a good Monday :p

Macam - Macam Ada Pada Nama

Was Tagged by Madamme Rafiqah and since today I'm a bit free (boss besar tkd...hehehe) so I'm more than willing to do this. So here goes....

REQUIREMENTS : Write about what or how or why you gave the name(s) to your kid(s). QUANTITY: 5 people
TAG MODE: Firstly you leave their blog and post link and add to the list below and secondly you let the blogger you want to tag know that he/she has been tagged by commenting in his/her blog or etc.

When I was younger (tua dah rupenyer saya...sigh), I always wanted a baby boy to be my first child. Eventhough there was a point in my life where I did not want to get married or have babies. Hehe...what was I thinking. Well anyways....when Mr Hubby and I found that we're gonna have a baby boy, we already have a list of names that we like. My Hubby tak kisah sangat as long as it has good meaning. I wanted a simple name for my baby, not too long and not too short. Easy to pronounce and remember. One day when I was blog hopping (yes...i do that a lot mase preggie dulu...), I came across a blog where the writer has 3 children and one of them is named Haziq. I began to like the name and its a bonus that the meaning of the name is pandai. So, Haziq it is. But then I kinda like also the name Danial(check dlm buku...Danial...nama Nabi...so ok la kan).....hence....Haziq Danial bin Nasaruddin. Tetapi now whenever I tell people my baby boy's name is Haziq...they'll go like...ooooo...mcm yg dlm AF (Akademi Fantasia) tu yeee...NOT....firstly, I do not waste my time watching AF...and I for sure did not name my son after that singer....tolong la...tk sume org tergiler giler kan AF ok. Emosi skit.

So...itu la dia sedikit insight on how Haziq got his name. For my next baby (chewah....which will only materialise earliest in 2009)...be it a boy or a girl...makcik sudah ada few names in mind...heh...I'm prepared....for the names ajer laa...not prepared to get preggie again. :p

Sigh...

I discovered something about a friend who broke up with her boyfriend sometime ago. I'm stunned....speechless. It made me wonder can a person really change after a failed relationship. Is the change necessary in order to move on??What if the change means that you have to sacrifice your principles that you hold up to all this while???Is it worth it??Is it the right thing to do??I understand that you gotta do what you gotta do in order to move on....to leave the broken pieces behind you....all the bad memories.....but...sigh....I don't know....somehow I disagree with her decision. But who I am to say anything....I'm not perfect myself :p

Hey...Look At Me....

I did it!!!!

Haziq decided to show of his ability to meniarap yesterday on his 4th month birthday. yippiiieee....Actually I think it was unintentionally coz before it happened, he was tossing and turning left and right and the last turn he may have pushed his lil' body a bit more..plus he was already at the edge of the mattress....wallllaaaaaa...siap sempat posing lagi ok. Urs truly punyer la excited cepat2 grabbed the camera. Too bad hubby was not around to witness this historical moment....probably u'll get the chance biler Haziq start to merangkak ye Mr Hubby dearest. I think this achievement calls for a celebration don't you think. Maybe I'll plan something la this weekend. You see...I've made a promise to myself that since I only get to spend 100% of my time with Haziq during weekend....so I will try to make sure there will always be activities for the three of us besides just lazing around the house :)

My Dilemma

This week it will be 2 weeks since Haziq is with me. For those yang tk tau...for the past one and a half month my parents were taking care of Haziq back in Ipoh. Reason being risau nak anta to a babysitter. Ye la kan...you hear so many stories pasal babysitter dera baby la...this and that...so after my pantang I agreed with the arrangement. But...urs truly ni tak boleh tahan rindukan si Haziq....nangis ari2....nangis on the phone when I hear his voice...nangis in the middle of the night when I suddenly wake up...yes..I cried a lot. So in the end....we looked for a babysitter near by our place and convinced my parents with the new arrangement. Akak yang we met ni was recommended by hubby's friend's mom.....so I'm a bit confident. Start June aritu, Haziq is beside me all time and so far I have no complains with the way Akak Ani takes care of Haziq. She even tolong potongkan kuku Haziq coz his Ibu here terlalu la takut nak potongkan.........so I'm suppose to be a happy mommy.......NOT!!!!!!!!!

I'm unhappy not because I feel burdened taking care of Haziq..of course not. I'm unhappy because I feel guilty. Now I feel guilty sending him to a stranger...I feel guilty everytime I get him ready in the morning...I feel guilty when he looks at me everytime I put on his clothes, I feel guilty every morning when I bid goodbye and kiss him before I leave for work, I feel guilty all the time and as I am writing this tears are rolling down my cheek...sheeessshhhh.

I always wonder what Haziq is thinking when he look at me. Is he angry that I am sending him to a babysitter??? Maybe he thinks I don't love him that much. I feel guilty to the extend I think I notice Haziq refuse to look at me everytime I pick him up in the evening. OMG....this is all killing me. Talked to hubby bout this and he said...put it this way...we go out to work and earn money to support the family...to give Haziq a better life and future. yeaahh...I know but I can't help but feel guilty and sad. I wish I can stay at home and take care of Haziq 24-7 but I guess it's impossible at the moment. I cannot stand the guilt....and I see no way of getting this guilt out of my system :(

Haziq baru lepas mandi

p/s: Haziq is 4 months old today..Happy Birthday my precious...love you to bits.... :)

Friday people....

I'm glad today is Friday...I can't wait to spend my weekend with my two heroes....this past few weeks has been very exhausting for me. Hey...Pak Lah is getting married haa...hhhhmmm....I can't stop but laugh I don't know why....anyway...all the best wishes for him...somehow his future bride reminds me of the present Philippines President....don't you think so??? happy weekend people...
