TyNgah Afeef Balik for Raya!

How excited I was to know that Kak Ngah is coming home for Raya this year! It was too sudden and unplanned! Just imagine, she YMed me on Thursday, contemplating and asking my opinion whether she should come home and the next 2 days, she's already on the next flight to Malaysia. Tak sangka, dpt jugak Afeef jumpe TyNgah live unplugged.

Afeef's 5 months milestone

Last Saturday was Afeef's 5 months Polio jab and Rotavirus appointment with Dr. R. So as a celebration, I'll list down his milestone as per dated:


1) Pandai sebut Mama and Babah. At first thought it was accidental. But now becoming more specific. When he's hungry


2) Suke main air liur smpi berbuih2 mulut


3) Babah is his Buddy. When he sees Babah he'll smile, then sentil2 lidah then squeal excitedly.

4) He can play by himself and sleep by himself. Leave him alone in the cot for almost an hour or so is no longer a problem. Last week, I left him in the cot coz I had to clean up the room and fold the clothes, he was amusing himself by playing with his two feets and the toys in the cot. After a long while, suddenly it was strangely quiet so i peeked inside the cot only to found Afeef looking very sleepy and his eyelids are half closed is slowly dozing to slumber by himself.

5) Afeef is getting more selective about people.

6) Afeef can now feed his ownself.

Upon seeing his Paed, we requested from Dr R another bottle of Dentinox since the 1st one dh nk abis. Dr R was surprised to hear that Afeef's colic has not settled down yet since he is now 5 months (colic is common for baby aged 3months and below). That makes me worried, is it not common?

Afeef can talk?

Afeef is approaching 5 months, he'll be 5 months this Sunday. At a tender age of 4 months and a half, Afeef has shown some signs that he has had a small library of vocabulary stored in his memory. He's not just cooing  monosyllable words like babababa or mamamama, but he sounds as though he's talking but the word was not yet too clear to be understood like "ammbuu...akeehee..bumbueyee..blabbekh". Afeef is known for his warm and easy-going nature, easy to smile when people agah2..even if a particular person in front of him doesn't pay attention on him, he'll stare at the person sampai org tu tgk die and senyum or tegur and he'll be so excited smpi squealing. He's always in a jovial mood, except when he's hungry, in a second his mood can turn a 180 degree from a happy weasel to a hungry dino hehe. From his easy-going nature, comes his bubbly self. He starts coo-ing at 1 month old, 

Earlier this week, on one sweet morning before going to work, while we were busy preparing Afeef for the day and ourself to work, biasela sambil sibuk2 sambil agah2 die tgh golek2 atas katil. Suddenly Babah die masuk bilik and jenguk die and upon seeing his Babah, Afeef sebut "A-Bahh.." Hubby the ever-positive person thought Afeef dh pandai sebut Babah, while I on the contrary, although was as excited as his Babah and hoping that his Babah was right, left a little doubt that it was a coincidence and impurposed. 

But this morning, I'm beginning to believe that Afeef, probably, can talk at a young age of only 5 months! I was in the shower while Hubby was playing with him on our bed. Upon seeing me walking out of the shower, Afeef said "Maa...." Ape lagi melompat la Babah and Mama die ni excited tgk Afeef mcm dh pndi cakap. And later, while I was busy bersiap2, Hubby masuk bilik and together we heard Afeef said something like "Atokk.." Biar betik? Bijak betul anak Mama and Babah ni..aminn.. :)
