It's a Dangerous World Outside the Womb..

Alhamdulillah, mak ngah already delivered yesterday morning, 27 Sept 2007, 2:37 am.. baby girl.. ehehe bleh la hasif buat kawan.. she weighed 3.38kg yesterday.. n mama ckp she was born two days earlier than her mama's birthday, which is tomorrow..

mm i can't wait to meet the baby girl.. hasif nak ajar dia roll over n gigit rattle ehehe.. since we don't have yet the photo of the baby, we better paste the photo of their 1st born.. abg adha who was born during hari raya aidiladha.. these photos were taken 3 years ago, when he was 8 months' old.. n it was abg adha's 1st visit to jb..

mama ckp gamba ni di ambil kat umah lama mama.. gamba abg adha nmpk blur sbb abg adha active sgt2.. cannot stand still..

ok.. better now.. eager to show off his gum..

dah... dahhhhh.. x nak duduk diam2 lama2 la.. asik ambik gamba je..

Weaning..

yeayyyyyyyyy.. we had given hasif his first taste of solid food last weekend.. sunday night, 23 sept after buka puasa, we gather in front of the tv.. happy mama was sitting right next to hasif, munching chocolate.. at that time hasif was playing.. but suddenly i noticed that he stared intently at me while making a chewing motion.. he even licked his lips.. I felt sadden with what i saw.. initially he was rolling over happily.. but when he noticed that i'm eating chocolates, he stopped and drooling over my food.. mak ngah said that it's ok if i gave him just a little bit of the chocolate for him to savour.. n i did.. n seems like hasif really enjoyed the taste.. so hasif's 1st solid food was kit kat chunky.. i did not gave the wafer though.. only the outer layer of the chocolate..

then yesterday when we were going out, papa bought a box of farley's rusk for hasif..

ni la rusk hasif :D

ehehhe mama n papa so excited.. first i nurse him n let him took a nap.. after about 20 mins, hasif wakes up.. n it time for his meal.. :D seronok nye rasa.. n i have to say that hasif really loves the rusk.. papa cut the rusk to smaller portion n hand it to hasif.. but hasif did nothing to the rusk except banging it to his hip.. lps tu mama decided that mungkin mama patut suap kan hasif rusk tu.. initially he refused to open his mouth, but once he did, he did not want to stop anymore :) n he keeps on pushing my hand, as if he want me to thrust the rusk further to his mouth..

okay.. pki bib dulu.. nanti kalau sememeh abis la baju comot..

hasif tgh mkn rusk dgn khusyuk nye..

happy hasif after consuming almost half of the rusk..

Balik Kampung..

we went back to mama's hometown last weekend.. our initial plan is to meet the new baby.. my sis, hasif's mak ngah is supposed to give birth last wednesday, 19 sept.. but the baby had decided that she's not ready yet to leave the warm and comfortable womb.. we keeps on hoping and praying that she gave birth during the weekend.. so that we have the opportunity to meet her.. but Allah have greater plan for us..so todate, mak ngah is still heavily pregnant..

mak ngah at 40 weeks + 3 days (saturday nite, 22 sept)

but mak ngah is very impressive and strong.. she still fast every day without failure.. and never once that i heard her whine.. mak ngah had check up yesterday morning and the doc said the baby is ok.. heartbeat is fine.. so the doc gave mak ngah until tomorrow.. wednesday morning, if she still has not give birth, the doc will induce her.. so hope everything will turn out well.. we pray that she has a smooth labour experience (like what happen when she gave birh to her first son, abg adha).. Aminn..

we brought back this fresh kurma that papa bought in s'pore.. it is S$9 for each kg.. this is the first time in mama's n papa's life to look at a fresh kurma (eheheh is it really fresh..?? but since it is not dried out already, we guess it must be fresh).. it is crunchy with a slight bitter sweet taste.. sodap..

anyway hasif had a wonderful time in my parent's place.. everybody's eager to meet him, especially his atuk n uwan.. it had been 1 and a half month since we last balik kampung.. and for a 5 months' old baby, 1.5 months is indeed a long time, as hasif had grown up so much since then.. n mama n papa also had marvelous time buka puasa in my hometown.. best.. uwan prepared our favourite food for iftaar.. on sunday mama had her fav gulai masak lemak cili api ikan jenahak n spicy fried chicken.. yesterday, mama had her fav rendang ayam with kcg pjg n cucur udang, and papa had his peria (bittergourd) with udang.. n mak ngah had her all-time-fav karipap.. yummy.. we had been to pasa ramadhan near our place also.. we bought the blue water.. ehehehe the colour is soooooo tempting n the taste is good.. it is a mixed of kelapa bali n limau nipis.. on sunday we bought 2 packets of the blue drinks (price rm2 each).. but since it is so good, mama became so tamak n force poor papa to buy 3 packets of that blue drinks yesterday.. eheheh.. the price for the lauk in that pasar ramadhan also is ok.. i mean veryyy cheap.. my BIL bought the gulai daging salai and it only cost him rm3 for one bowl.. n the rendang ayam with maman is priced at rm3 for 2 pieces of the chicken.. somehow we were wondering whether the seller made any profit from our transactions.. ehehe..

hasif tgh picnic ngan abg adha n kak nadrah kt luar..

all in all we did have a wonderful time balik kampung..

5 Months' Progress

hasif was 5 months old on tuesday last week, 11 Sept.. we weighed him 2 days before he reached his 5 months' birthday (during the immunization shot), and he's 7 kg at that time.. let's see his milestone progress at 5 months..

this is our big boy at 5 months old..

this little guy now can now roll over effortlessly from his front to back, and from back to his front.. and he seems to be enjoying his skills so much that more often than not, it is the first thing that he'll do once he open his eyes.. in fact lately when he wakes up middle of the night for his milk, he will roll over first and make some noise to announce that he's already hungry.. then bila dah kenyang he will turn his head to the other side and starts to roll over again with his eyes closed.. sound asleep eheheh..

hasif is also moving so fast nowadays that i'm afraid to leave him out of my sight.. especially in the morning when we are getting ready for office.. he normally sleeps at 7 pm and wakes up at 6-6:30 am the following morning.. at that time we are busy preparing ourselves.. thus he entertain himself by playing and rolling over.. he will keeps on rolling until he’s near to the edge of the bed.. we normally barricade all the edges of the beds with pillow.. eehehe.. but this morning I noticed that he happily rest his back on one of the pillow while kicking his legs high up the air.. n the pillow shifts position..! it’s so scary.. wonder if they sell the ‘gate’ for our king size bed.. so that our bed will looks like a giant baby bed.. ehehhe like the one for baby’s cot.. we can let him sleep in his bed (which is a present from Mak Ngah actually.. thanks mak ngah.. muahhhh) but I’m afraid that his movement will be limited there.. at nite hasif normally sleeps vertically in between us.. but by midnite, he’s already aligned perpendicular to our original sleeping position and when he wakes up he loves to kick either one of us.. much to papa’s dismay, especially if it’s 6 am on Sunday morning ehehehe..

waktu siang hasif selalu nye tdo dlm buaian.. n he normally sing 'lullaby' for himself until he fall asleep.. n suddenly senyap je.. dia dah lena rupa nye..

hasif now also like to raise his cute little butt up.. n push his chest n face forward.. this is the first time that I had seen baby trying to crawl.. n I have to say that it’s impressive and very very cute.. :)

his strength and coordination is also improving.. he can now grab small items, and picks up his toys if it’s fell down.. and he’s now also in the process of mastering the art of clearing the dining table, especially if u sit him on ur lap while having ur meal.. like last time when we have lunch in sushi king, I hold him since the floor of the dining table is slightly elevated compared to the aisle where we put his stroller.. so he seems to be very far down in his stroller when we eat.. thus we agreed to take turn to hold him while eating.. the moment I sit him on my lap, he starts sweeping both the menus, and the cutlery set on the floor with one giant sweep, with his little hand.. ehehehe.. abis sume jatuh lantai.. n when mama tried to eat her meal, he also made chewing motion and extend his hand to my serving.. as if to help himself with the meal.. eheheh.. sometime we wonder if he’s now ready for solid food.. but after consultation with the doctor, we decided to hold until he’s a good 6 months old baby.. at least his digestive system is matured at that time.. ehehe can’t wait for him to start weaning.. but for the meantime, I guess breastmilk is enough for u eh hasif..

hasif can now sits rather steadily, attended.. with no assistance, he can only hold himself straight for a good 30 seconds or so before toppling down to his side.. guess in a couple weeks time he’s already strong enough to sit on his own.. can’t wait to buy a high chair for him.. sit him there and feed him his solid food.. ehehe.. sounds like a big boy.. but once he starts weaning, he will be less dependent on me and reduce the number that I will nurse him :( guess that’s how life’s goes on..

Ayat Seribu Dinar

Dan sesiapa yang bertaqwa kepada Allah (dengan mengerjakan suruhanNya dan meninggalkan laranganNya), nescaya Allah akan mengadakan baginya jalan keluar (dari segala perkara yang menyusahkannya), serta memberinya rezeki dari jalan yang tidak terlintas di hatinya. Dan (Ingatlah), sesiapa berserah diri bulat-bulat kepada Allah, maka Allah cukuplah baginya (untuk menolong dan menyelamatkannya). Sesungguhnya Allah tetap melakukan segala perkara yang dikehendakiNya. Allah telahpun menentukan kadar dan masa bagi berlakunya tiap-tiap sesuatu.

Today, 2 Years Ago.. 10 Sept. 2005

we were engaged today, two years ago.. two years already.. time seems to be flying very fast.. the number may be small, but in reality i feel like we had been together forever.. we decided to tied the knot 10 months after our engagement.. after we were married, never once that i regret making that decision before..

purple hantaran from mama to papa..

ehehehe mama terlebih excited lak masa bertunang

mama with ur tok..

hantaran from ur papa..

mama with mak long n mak ngah..

sharing the limelight with pak long, adik nadrah, mak long n abg haziq.. ur pak long was still very macho at that time.. :D well yesss.. mama also still very slim n slender at that time ;)

n two years after that event, we already settle down with this little guy n our little nest that we call home..

Hasif is not well.. againnnnn..

the little prince was unwell last nite.. he was very healthy when ma picked him up on tuesday after office.. but suddenly, around 9 o'clock last nite, he woke up.. ma picked him up to nurse him since he had no appetite during the day.. but as soon as ma hold him, he vomited milk all over ma and the floor.. he vomited sooo much that made mama's and papa's hearts stopped beating for a second.. his body temperature also rise. n it's so hot.. papa immediately checked his temp, and much to our surprise, it is almost 39 deg. C.. ok red alert.. recurring fever is definitely not a good sign.. we wiped him with wet cloth to reduce the heat n ma tried to nurse him as frequent as possible to prevent dehydration.. however hasif did not slept so well last nite.. he keeps on waking up n moan..

so today, mama n papa decided to take leave n send him off to see the doc.. apparently hasif has throat infection, which was the reason why he does not feel well n keeps on vomiting.. the doc pescribed the following medicine which will be part of hasif's diet for the next few days.. eheh.. hopefully he likes the taste of the medicine..

now hasif already feels better n his body temp already reduce to normal.. he is now sleeping peacefully.. while he is asleep, papa prepared this marvelous dish for our dinner.. chilli crab.. eheheh ketam again since last week mama becomes so tamak n bought too much of the ketam.. anyway this one taste superb.. papa is definitely a very good cook.. yummy..

Our Merdeka Holiday

We had quite a long holiday last weekend.. 3 days to be exact, weekend + the merdeka holiday.. mama n i just stayed at home, enjoying each other's company.. since papa is woking abroad (eheheh mcm la jauh sgt :P), he did not entitle for our Merdeka holiday.. in fact he already had his Merdeka holiday which fall earlier of the month..

during the two days that i just stayed alone with mama (friday and saturday), i have to say that i'm happy with the role that ma played as SAHM (stay-at-home-mom).. we played, we bathed together, we read.. so happy.. ma also prepared wonderful menu for papa as he had to work.. eheheh sian papa..
