PD Weekend Gateway

Date: 3-5 August 2007

Venue: PD

we had been to PD last weekend.. we always made it a point to gather at least once a year.. normally to a place close to our hometown since my dad's health is not so good lately.. so the place closest to our hometown is PD.. kira ok la kan.. at least we can all be together.. the main objective for such gathering is to tighten our bonding.. over the year it might become slightly loose la since everybody is far apart from each other.. i will try to instill this kind of thinking to hasif and our other future children also.. like the Chinese said.. the family that eats together stays together.. so that's what we actually did.. eat and eat and eat together the whole time.. adoii.. too much eating had cause me to have diarrhea on saturday.. yes i know.. cos i ate too much.. no room anymore for those foods in my tummy.. anyway my eldest brother cannot join us as his son, haziq just had an operation about two months ago.. so since the doctor had advised him to steer clear of water for 6 months.. so x bleh join la.. incase the water might get into his ears.. boys that age.. what can u expect.. u cannot ask him to sit still by the beach or the pool, and just watch others to play in the water..

we reached PD late friday night.. heavy traffic in PG hiway n slow service of BK in Pe*r***s near the hiway can be blame for our delay.. baby hasif did not sleep so well on our first night.. we realised that night that he did not like to sleep in the dark.. this hypotesis was made since he slept soundly the night after that, when we switched our sleeping place.. to a much brighter area.. the first nite, he cried twice n waking up everybody..it's not that dark actually since we left the door ajar so as the faint light from the bathroom can enter our room.. but it seems like it's not sufficient for baby hasif.. the first time he screamed and cried, it is around 3 am.. i quickly fed him n the place became silent again.. then dia tersedak as the milk flow was too fast.. n he cried again.. n suddenly i heard the following..

Mak Ngah aka Mama Adha: dia tersedak la..

Adha: Mak Lang pekak ke..?

eheheh so funny.. btw adha called me mak lang n he's 3 years old.. maybe he rarely use the word 'tersedak' .. that's why he misunderstood the word tersedak with pekak.. actually adha can speaks with full vocabulary at the age of 1+ year (kak ina.. correct me if i'm wrong).. mm i can't wait for baby hasif's first word.. well i still remember, before, adha had problem to differentiate the work 'pedas' with 'panas'.. i still remember vividly,at that time my sister was frying the keropok sayur.. adha was very excited to eat.. but as soon as he touched the keropok.. he screamed.. mama pedas.. pedas.. eheheheh what he actually meant was the keropok is panas.. at that time we were at my sister's house, can't remember exactly when.. but at that time i'm still single with to-die-for figure.. ehehe.. but that was before.. skarang mama hasif had changed to tengok-only-die-already figure..eheheheh.. hope it's not too late la to regain back what i had lost ;) iskkkkk ape yg i merepek ni.. kan nak cerita psl PD.. aiseh..

we had bbq for lunch and dinner.. best sgt.. we had sate ayam n daging.. n we marinated some ikan cencaru.. ikan kembung.. ikan pari.. prawns.. squid.. chicken wings.. sedap tul.. bakar tepi laut.. mkn tepi laut.. we really had a good time.. hasif also had a good time sleeping there.. papa hasif set up his buaian in our spot for bbq.. by the beach.. he slept since 10 am straight until almost 5pm, if i'm not mistaken.. woke up intermittently for some input (his milk) and also some 'output'.. eheheh..but since our unit is very near to the beach, me and papa hasif just went back to clean him up.. we didn't try to put him in the water.. neither the sea nor the pool.. we felt like he's still very small.. he barely reached 4 months old.. so i guess it's not the time yet la.. but he did enjoyed himself immensely.. by sleeping.. eheheh.. angin kuat sgt tepi laut.. at one time we felt like it's storm already.. like the makcik who rent us the kerusi malas said, it's raining everyday in PD.. it must be our lucky day because it didn't rain when we were there.. at that night (saturday night), we continued our bbq, since our food is too much.. n we were too tired to go out.. though initially me n papa hasif had planned to bring baby hasif to the pasar malam in PD (sebena nye mama yg sibuk nak pegi)..

papa tgh siap kan baby hasif before pegi tido kat tepi pantai..

the junk foods that we had for picnic.. these must be enough to feed the whole class during jamuan kelas sekolah rendah.. eheheh..

marinated squids n prawns n cencaru n ikan kembung n ikan pari.. n also my mom's very special chicken wings..

yummy... chicken wings with bbq sauce and chilli sauce..

the wind is so strong..

but yet baby hasif slept so peacefully..

my BIL, abg p.. as always.. he is our chef diva for every occasions tht involves bakar2.. bbq or bakar sate.. bakar ikan.. asalkan ada api..

oooooooooooooo suruh hasif tdo kt tepi pantai.. papa g mandi seronok2 ngan abg adha, pak teh ngan pak su eh.. tak aciiiii..

3 org kanak2 riang tgh main lori pasir..

x do kojo.. membuli budak kecik ehhh..

my sis n my mom.. btw my sis will deliver next month.. hope everything turns out well..

papa hasif sibuk shoot ape tu.. with atuk on his right..

mama 'swimming' kat tepi je psl air dlm sgt.. :D

papa hasif fall asleep.. penat sgt agak nye lps main pasir.. eheheh..

Yummy.. Prepared with Love..

this is the mee hailam that papa hasif had prepared for me the other day.. taste sooo good.. normally mee hailam is dark colour.. but this one is the healthier version of mee hailam.. thus less soy sauce.. papa hasif also used spagetti instead of mee kuning since this is the only thing that's available.. eheh.. rugi hasif kecik lagi x bleh nak rasa..

Current Progress

previously a passive observer of his surrounding, this little boy had move up a notch.. now he is a very active participant for his surrounding..always mumbling incoherently.. he will smile and laugh and talk when he hears u talking.. sometimes this little boy also can be very perasan cos he even smile and talk when u are singing.. as if u are talking to him..eheheh..

changing his cloth n wet diapers also had becomes quite a task since this boy now dah semakin lasak.. whenever we remove his diaper, he will curl up his leg, like he's in fetal position.. maybe because his bare bottom rasa sejuk kena angin.. so makin susah la nak pasang kan new diaper..

feedings now also can be challenging since hasif will stop n turned away from u at each and every new noise that distracts him... he's now becomes increasingly aware of, and interested in the world around him.. so basically u have to be very very patient in order to feed him.. as for mama hasif.. one of my best moment is to hold my sleeping baby in my arms.. yg dah kekenyangan after i breastfeed him..

this is one of my favourite photo of hasif yg tersandar kekenyangan selepas menyusu.. this photo was taken when he's one month old..

the strength and coordination of his hands are also improving.. he will grab everything within his reach.. be it ur hair.. ur tudung.. ur clothing.. his own kain buaian.. anything basically.. our baby loves to reach out and touch anyone and anything he can grasp onto.. and when u hold (dukung) him in such a way that ur right hand is supporting his bottom n ur left hand is on his back for support, u will notice that he will cling tightly to u n suddenly u will feel like ur neck or ur collar is already wet.. dah basah dia hisap.. adoiii.. he loves to put everything that he picks up straight to his mouth.. now his capabilies are limited.. thus x banyak sgt yg bleh di collect utk bawak masuk mulut.. skit hari lagi.. mmmm God only knows.. he loves sucking his fingers also.. one finger.. or sometimes smpi 3 jari dia sumbat kan dlm mulut.. lps tu keliling mulut dia sememeh with his own saliva.. how adorable.. (eheheh of course la adorable since he's our own flesh and blood).. we also love watching him play with his hands.. the way he clasp his hands ever so tighly..

baby hasif tgh khusyuk menghisap jari.. kalau try nak tarik jari tu mesti dia marah..

by now Hasif had been physically capable of making it through the night without feeding.. he now sleeps for a long stretch of time, up to 6 or 7 hours before he becomes restless that indicates he's already hungry.. or sometimes i will wake up to the sound of him sucking up his finger or simply his lips.. kesian hasif lapar.. we make it a point that hasif has a predictable, positive bedtime routine, which entails putting him to bed at the same time every night.. he normally sleeps at 7pm everyday until the following morning.. of course this routine will be disrupted if we are going out.. so as much as possible we try to stay at home this time around so as not to disturb his beauty sleep..

yesterday papa hasif was not working.. independence day for singapore..everytime that he's not working, papa is the one who will take care of baby hasif.. so no need to send hasif over to the babysitter.. after i came back from office yesterday, we went to the lake.. the lake garden is actually very near to our home.. maybe 5 mins walking.. but we drive la of course, takut nanti tak larat pulak nak jalan balik rumah.. eheheh.. hasif loves being outdoor.. wind-blown trees or leaves always fascinates him.. these i had notice for quite some time already.. tapi mama malu skit la jln2 kt tasik smlm as everybody's in their sport's gear but i come complete with baju kurung and hand bag.. ehmmmmm... slightly out of place la.. but since i jenis tak kisah.. so no big deal la for me..

HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS LITTLE BOY.. sometimes i just wished that time will pass slowly as i want ot savour every moments that i have with my darling baby.. and to share him with my darling husband.. it's priceless.. and i really thankful to Allah for letting our path crossed.. he is so right for me (tak tau la kan org nak kata apa.. but for me.. my other half really completes me)..
