Amalia's 1st step and 4th tooth!

My poohbear Ama'ia officially can walk by herself at 1years old! :))

Yesterday was Deepavali hol so I was at home with my kids tidying up the ever messy room, while Ama'ia was busy playing the cds at the tv shelf with Along Afeef. Suddenly I saw her trying to reach for the bed, and when she failed, she took a step forward, still can't reach for the bed so she took another step with a struggling frown on her face and she finally get hold of the bedside after the 3rd step. I immediately applauded for her great effort and achievement, and she smiled sheepishly and excitedly sbb berjaya showing of her 3+1 teeth yg baru tumbuh yesterday too!

Amalia's 1st Birthday - The Prep

As usual, kalau ade rezeki lebih sikit (Alhamdulillah..), 3D birthday cake and helium balloons are a must for mama. I'm the kind of person who appreciate beautiful and artsy things to the max. So that explains the 3D cake, and there's a huuuge childish side of myself that wanting so much and luuurve cute things and toys a lot! In fact, most of the time I bought toys for my kids because it is ME who wanted them hihi, anyways, I luurve cute balloons as much!! :D
So in the morning, we went to Kak Zurin's house in Putrajaya to fetch the beautifully made cute Winnie the Pooh cake, which due to Mama's busy being in the kitchen preparing the food i.e. Mee bandung muar, nasi ayam, mashed potatoes with gravy, coleslaw and bbq chicken, cake cantek itu telah dikerjakn oleh my darlings before sempat diambil gambar sobsob! TT
Late that evening, about 6pm sempat lagi went to Giant to buy mineral water and incomplete groceries for the party & plan to go to BalloonBz Taipan to buy the helium balloon, nasib baik surf the website to look for Taipan's phone no. & found Bdr Puteri branch instead, lega! Kalau pergi Taipan, alamat isya' br birthday girl sampai rumah huhu.
We were so glad to find the Bdr Puteri branch, 1stly, because it is so near to home. 2ndly, they tied up the balloons the correct way so as not to entangled them unlike Taipan's (we spent a good 15min detangling cutting the strings the 25 balloons on Afeef's 2nd bday!) and 3rdly, they blew the balloons to their max allowable size unlike Taipan who blew them unattractively small. Nasib baik order 50 only, as our car can only fit 50 balloons. Thank you Babah for being so understanding and supportive of your childish wife, you complete me mmuachhs! Just look at how delighted Amalia is looking at her 50 pink balloons! As excited as her Mama, that's my girl... (^.^)

Afeef - Mat Kacang

Afeef suke sgt makan kacang, his Chek ajar coz his Chek mmg suke kacang, and groundnuts mmg ade stock dpn tv satu bekas at rumah BSP. When he was about 1yr plus, his Chek always mamahkan groundnuts for him sbb Afeef belum byk geraham nk kunyah. Chek ckp Afeef mkn satu paket besar tu sorang! Chek tau sbb Chek mmg sengaje xmkn sbb nk tau Afeef mkn banyak mane.

Now at the age of 2yrs 4mths, Chek dah berjaya groom Afeef becoming an avid lover of peanuts! Last weekend balik BSP, Afeef terjumpe satu balang kacang botak (yg kaler kuning tu) depan tv. Mase tu Babah was watching World Badminton Championship 2011. Afeef suruh Babah open the balang and Babah open sekejap for him to take a few and tutup balik balang. So the whole day Afeef dok kepit balang tu sambil tangan sebelah genggam a few kacang and mulut tutup rapat mengunyah. turun naik tangga and keep on asking people near him to open the balang for him everytime bekalan dalam tapak tgn die dh abis. Chek was surprised that Afeef likes that peanuts coz it was so keras than usual. Patutla Mama dgr Afeef mengunyah ketap-ketup and bukan crunch2..sian anak Mama, kacang botak tu kalau crunchy lagi sedap sgt2 sebenarnye sayang.. So everytime org bukakan the balang, he will bersungguh2 sambil meleleh air liur mengutip kacang dalam balang with his left hand, and masukkan sebiji2 into his right hand’s palm. And sangat berusaha memenuhkan genggaman tangan die yang kecik tu, macam takut dh xbole amik lagi. Chek kesian so Chek ckp, “Amikla Afeef bawak balik Puchong. Kesian Chek tgk, xpe nnt chek beli lain..”

So ptg tu nak balik Puchong, biase when I start to salam everybody and Abang start to load in all our bags into the car, Afeef akan meluru nk keluar sbb takut kene tinggal. But this time around, sebab he was too engrossed with his kacangs, die buat xtau aje siap say “Bye..” to us sambil lambai and salam Mama and Babah. Xtau kacang botak dh masuk dlm kereta. Bile everybody hanta kami to the car, he was still carried by Chu Im and bid us goodbye dengan selamba nye siap senyum simpul and mengunyah kacang. But when I showed him balang kacang botak from inside of the car, die terpempan kejap and baru la nk masuk kereta, hahaha! Kelakar la anak mama ni..

Since he keep on asking me to open the balang for him and I was too busy feeding Amalia, I gave him the whole balang and he ate straight from the balang joyously the whole way back to Puchong. Sampai Giant stop kejap, and masuk je kereta balik minta Mama bukakan balang nikmat die tu..sudahnya hari ni, Afeef makan kacang sesaje, bubur, pasta semua mkn sikit je sbb dh kenyang kacang huhuhu!

Afeef 2mths and 4 mths old - anak yang caring

Mama: Afeef, come let's take bath syg..
Afeef: Nanak! (sambil main phone game)
Mama: Come la..Afeef good boy tak?

Afeef: Tade..

Mama: Iye la..Afeef good boy..

Afeef: Tade.. TADE!

Mama: Come la good boy Mama, sayang Mama x..Afeef sayang Mama kan..say 'sayang'?

Afeef: Amak! (coz kpl terbang pejuang die terlanggar gunung)

Mama: cepatla say 'sayang'..

Afeef: (still engross w his game) Owh yeke?

Mama: (terus picit pipi bayut die sbb gerammm)
 
5 min kemudian..
 
Mama: Afeef, cptla sayang..let's take bath..
Afeef: Tabole..TABOLE! (Mata xlepas dr iphone main game)
Mama: (Tetibe dpt idea..) Afeeef...huuu..huuu..Afeef....huu.. (pure2 nangis sambil gosok2 mata), come..let's take bath..huuu...
Afeef: (terus angkat muke and tengok mama penuh concern, and terus ckp dgn suara lembut n memujuk) Ok..ok...jom...jom.. (sambil tepuk2 and tarik tangan mama and angguk2 kepala) jom..jom..
 
Afeef mmg nampak anak sulung..sgt caring. Walaupun die suke garang dgn mama (sbb die tiru gaya Mama bile garang dgn die huhu..) tapi sgt responsible and caring. Due to that, I enjoy very much berlakon menangis whenever he refuses to listen to me nowadays hahaha! Sbb die akan datang pujuk siap peluk and kiss me, because he knows whenever he does that I will stop crying (pretentiously) and what important is, he will follow what I've initially asked him. :p
 
There's 1 scene, Afeef lepas mandi mmg struggle nk pakaikan baju die. Bukan ade ape pun, saje nk melawan, baik Mama baik Babah, same je. Because Afeef is so tall and bertulang keras and kuat, Mama selalu xlarat and xde kudrat nk lawan die unlike Babah yang bole kepit die kuat2 sambil pakaikan baju. So recently, after bathing, I tried putting on his pants and as usual he kicked me real hard on my leg and it was actually pretty hurting. Since I've found his softspot i.e. xbole tgk org nangis, I exaggerated the pain and pretend to cry sambil gosok my leg. Afeef yg tgh baring tu terus duduk and look closer at my face just to be sure that I was not laughing but crying (kehkehkeh..) and terus pujuk sambil gosok tempat sakit and ckp "ok...ok...ok..jom.." and terus hulur baju die yg die baling mula2 tadi tu.
 
Another scene was mase Mama nak tidurkan Afeef. Afeef mmg suke gentel bare skin, xkisahla leher ke, lengan ke perut ke, kadang2 adik die yg pakai tights and romper tu die seluknye celah bedah dkt lubang kaki tu nk gentel perut adik die yang semestinye tgh sedap tidur dan rimas. So semalam, as usual Afeef gentel leher Mama, tetibe die terjumpe macam kutil lemak tu kn, cepat2 die duduk and have a closer look at it dalam samar2 lampu tidur tu beria2 die tgk. He tried to pull it off, but failed. So sambil die tekan that spot with his small finger die mcm bace doa/berzikir which I don't really understand and upon finishing his recitation, he kissed the spot...oh it really touches my heart..mcm mane Mama selalu buat kat die bile sapu ubat pada luke sambil baca selawat syifa' tu mcm tu la die buat pd Mama...saayaaaannng buah hati mama ni... :)

Amalia 8 months old

1) Starts to show signs nk merangkak i.e. angkat punggung tinggi like doing london bridge, lepas tu buat crawling position and goyang2 punggung..menyulur combat style makin laju, xbole tinggal atas katil sekejap aje dh smpi tebing. For the record, dah banyak kali jatuh katil..just like along Afeef.
2) Makin lincah bermain, cepat aje mata die nampak barang, cepat aje capai and kalau x dapat berusaha dalam senyap sampai dapat. Tangkas jugak Amalia ni dalam kelembutan die tu.. :)
3) Makin banyak babbling...almost every waking hours babbles "Bababababaahh..", "Atatatatataaaaa!". Becok macam Along Afeef jugak ni. Boleh tahan nyaring suara dia. (mama, as usual x pandai lagi sebut TT)
4) Lepas tu suke sgt 'geram' nowadays, muke sweet innocent tibe2 menjerit, "Aaaaaaahh! Ahh!!!" sambil keras2 kan badan kegeraman, people around selalu terkejut.
5) Dah pandai pinching her telunjuk n thumb bile nk ambil something. Yang kelakar tu, she likes to aim the thing that she wants to pick with her thumb and pointing finger from afar sampai la jari2 die smpi to the object. Sangat cute, melentik2 jari die nak aim. She doesn't like to grab with all fingers but pinch, even Mama's spectacles pn die nk pinch mcm la my spec ni sebesar butir nasi hihi~
6) pandai main agah2 as in dah tau suspense and feeling nervous..suke sangat bile Mama buat2 ala2 Jaws, dtg slow2 dr jauh and makin dekat makin laju, melompat2 punggung n kaki die nervous.
7) sgt particular, kalau mama dah balik jangan harap la die nk abis kan EBM yang dh rendam. Dicampaknye botol tu. Nak yg direct. Air masak ke, air milo ke pun xnak kalau mama ade..die larikan muke die kalau kite sua ke mulut die.

28) count atu uwe ige empet ime annam ujuh appan selilan spuloh!



Sangat suke berzikir/berselawat Alhamdulillah, siap bole zikir dr awal smpi habis, in fact Babah pn segan coz he himself x hafal. Yang xtahan tu mane part kene tarik suara, Afeef akan tarik siap keluar2 urat leher and muke penuh semangat. He will berzikir almost every waking minute, in the car, sambil tgk cartoon, tgh makan, tgh main toys, tgh main with cousins, tgh mandi, tgh cebok uk-uk pun berzikir! InsyaAllah anak mama jadi al-Hafiz amin ya rabb..Antara yg Afeef dh pandai:
1) Solatullah salamullah..
2) Astaghfirullah rabbal baraya..
3) Asmaul husna
4) Surah al-Ikhlas
5) Surah Al-Fatihah
6) Hasbi rabbi jalallah..
7) Lailahaillallah halmalikul haqqul mubin..
8) Subhanallah walhamdulillah..
9) Doa khatam Al-Quran: Allahummarhamna bilquran..
10) Nasyid Tuhanku aku tidakla layak untuk syurgamu
11) almost all lagu Maher Zain
12) Ya Nabi Salam Alaika..
13) Bismillahirrahmanirrahim
Sebab die pelat lagi, my big challenge is to try to figure out what is he singing/berzikir..and when I finally get the vague wordings and perfect tone, I will berzikir together with him, and he'll smile satisfactorily, if otherwise, he will hushed me to keep quiet coz I got it wrong!

Guilty

Yes, bukan lagu Westlife. This is a story about my 2 yrs & 1 mth old son, Ahmad Afeef Ahza.

Babah is now in Sipadan for a diving trip with his Perasan Bujang group (haha!) until Wednesday. So I took this shining golden opportunity to stay at my parent's in BSP until then. Yesterday, Afeef had a very heavy breakfast, celik mata je his Chek suap donut 1 1/2 biji, then a bottle of milk, followed by 1/2 roti canai. Dek kekenyangan ya amat, he climbed up the bed lying beside his sister yg tgh mkn kaki (belum ye, lmbt lg die nk dpt adik), while I was making another bottle of milk since he looked so sleepy.

When I came back into the room, I noticed him lying with a comforter covering him and Amalia up to the chest and I said, "Alalala bijaknye anak Mama, baiknye baring dgn adik siap berselimut. As I entered d room, I smelled something foul and instantly said, "eh ape bau muntah ni??" and start sniffing my 2 kids while Amalia is still munching her foot and Afeef lying straight looking at me with a straight blank expression. The foul smell is nearby but I was positive that it was not on my kids clothes.

As I was sniffing somewhere else trying to find the source, suddenly Afeef gotten up from his lying place and my sharp eagle eyes spotted that he was lying on a heap of blankets and I saw something wet and brownish beneath the blankets heap, immediately it struck my mind that my 2 year old son is trying to hide his vomit by putting all the blankets on the spew, lying on top of the heap and cover his body to his chest with a comforter, and that straight blank face was actually a face of terror that I might spank him if I discovered the truth.

Terus I hug him and kiss him repeatedly sambil ckp, "kesian anak mama, sakit perut ke syg? Kesiiaann die...mama xmarah, don't worry sayang..let me clean up the mess..come with me, let me wash you.."
MasyaAllah, I have mixed feelings:
1stly; Felt like crying out of guilt, coz I've made him scared of me for something he shouldn't be scared of. 2ndly; Amazed by his quick action to save himself, at the age of 2, coz I've only been away from
him for 5mins, subhanallah!
3rdly; I was sad that my son couldn't be transparent with me coz I like to scold him whenever he did something wrong, and sekali dua pernah naik tgn sbb geram sgt,Astaghfirullahaladziim serik lps tu n kesal xkesudahan!
4thly; wahhh penatnye rs nk kene basuh all d blankets and the vomit spot on the bed, instead of only the spot, serve me right..

When Babah called, I told everything that just happened. "Alahai..anak Babah.." sayu suara Babah mengeluh...sebak Mama..
Anak Mama sayang, thank you for making me realized my mistake in educating you, I promise not to spank you until you are big enough to understand and know how to reason out things. By then you will understand that Mama will only be angry if you did something bad purposely or degil ckp mama, Something bad that is beyond your control like vomit will not make me angry..Mama saayyyaanggg anak2 mama..mmuacchs3!

PRS: Pengaruh Rakan Sebaya

Bukan pembimbing rakan sebaya ya..It's kinda hard to raise your kids when you are a working mum. We tried our best to nurture good values like, salam org tua, say sorry, say thank you, don't shout, don't kick people, don't put your feet on people, talk nicely. But when you are a working mom, your kids spent 8hours with other people, be it your maid or at nursery and only 3hours with us. Kalau overtime balik lambat silap2 xsempat jumpe sbb dh tido as in my case coz Afeef budak sekolah tido on time 9.30pm.

Dulu Afeef budak yang sgt baik, sgt well-behaved coz we tried as much as we could to nurture all the good values. Tapi sejak dh pandai berkawan with the cousins and spent almost 8hrs x 5days = 40hours in their room, he now behaves if not totally, pretty much like them too. Sedih bile my Kakngah cakap, "Kaklong, aku tgk Afeef skarang dh mcm perangai F, semalam tibe2 die tendang Fwz..terkejut Fwz sbb dulu Afeef x macam tu..."

Sedih..sedihhh..bukan sedih kakngah ckp mcm tu, sbb she was just telling because she herself is worried too..tapi sedih bile kite cube didik anak perkara yang elok tp kerana rakan sekeliling berperangai the total opposite, he followed them instead.

Ini baru 2tahun, mcm nila rupenye perasaan parents about the friends that their kids chose. Ya Allah, semoga anak kami bijak memilih kawan yang baik, yang soleh, yang mengundang kepada perkara kebaikan amin ya rabbalamin..

AMBIGUOUS LUMP

Setiap nikmat yang diturunkan Allah swt pasti disertai ujian xkira besar atau kecil. Ujian itu tanda sayangnya Allah swt pada makhluk-Nya. Jika hidup penuh dengan nikmat memanjang, manusia senang alpa pada sang Pencipta yang Maha Esa. Sungguh, terasa berat di bahu dugaan sebegini, tapi bile mengenangkan orang yang lebih besar ujian dan lebih malang hidupnya, terasa amat bersyukur ke hadrat Ilahi yang Maha Besar lagi Berkuasa sekurang2nya ujian yang ku terima cumalah kecil, cukup untuk membuatkan diri ini sentiasa teringatkan-Nya dan sentiasa teringin mendekati-Nya, di mana lagi tempat mengadu yang setia Maha Mendengar lagi Maha Mengasihani kalau bukan Allah Azzawajalla..

Dulu mase Afeef about Amalia's age, pun ade lump tapi at armpit i.e. the common place for lumps to occur, where the lymph nodes are. Doc suspected it was due to the TB virus from the BCG jab. Though it didn't reduced in size after antibiotic treatment, it did not get any larger therefore the doc advised to us to leave it there as it will get smaller relative to the growth of the body. The lump remain there under his arm until he was 1 year and a half, suddenly it gets bigger and the size was prominently big and immediately developed into a bisul and burst, and now the lump is gone.

When Amalia's BCG dah start bernanah at 1mths old, I started to check her armpit everyday, paranoid that the lump problem will happen to her too. Everyday time mandi, mesti raba her left armpit, where the BCG is. Syukur Alhamdulillah it was never there. At the age of 3 months tibe2 I discovered a small lump on her shoulder near her armpit. I was not worried at first coz I thought it was just like her Along's. But when all docs that I met said that it was uncommon to have a lump there I was soo upset. Even more upsetting when the ultrasound scan confirmed that it was neither lymphnode nor a cyst. It was a solid therefore they're worried if it is actually the "Big T". Therefore ambiguity. The 1st time it was discovered, it can't be seen by naked eye. Only can be felt by touching it. Later xpegang pun dh bole nampak but only when xpakai baju, and as of yesterday, over her shirt pn dah bole nampak the lump.. :((

And due to ambiguity, besides the lump does get bigger day by day, she was referred to a Paediatric Surgeon in Tawakkal Hospital. So we went to see the Paediatric Surgeon last Tuesday. Berat hati Mama and Babah nak decide, coz hanya Allah Maha Mengetahui what's the best for our precious daughter. After much contemplation, discussion, berdoa banyak2 pada Allah yang Maha Pengasih lagi Maha Mengasihani agar memberi petunjuk ape yang terbaik untuk our Amalia, finally we decided on putting her in a surgery to remove the lump.

The lump is shown in the white box near her armpit

The surgery is scheduled tomorrow, Friday the 4th at 10am. Doctor asked to puasakan Amalia 4hours prior surgery. Ya Allah, tabahkanlah hati hamba-Mu yang lemah ini, sembuhkanlah anak kami segera, semoga surgery esok berjalan lancar dan selamat tanpa sebarang complication, semoga lump itu tidak membahayakan anak kami Amalia Ahza, kuatkanlah anak kami Amalia Ahza, semoga badannya yang kecil itu kuat menerima bius yang bakal diberikan dan semoga badan yang kecil itu kuat melawan sakit..amin ya rabbal alamin.. :(( :((

 Amalia sayang, be strong my dearest..Mama sentiasa doakan kesejahteraan anak Mama..

INTERVIEW FEVER

Alhamdulillah setinggi2 kesyukuran dipanjatkan kepada Allah yang Maha Kaya lagi Maha Berkuasa. After so many months of trying and waiting, Alhamdulillah finally, I get to be called for interviews, and Maha Kaya Allah swt, all interviews are of different post. Berkat mendengar cakap suami supaya bersabar at current company and gain as much experience as i could being a multitask engineer (i.e. engineer sampah as we always joked at), berkat mendengar ckp mama ayah supaya amik Biotech Engineering huhu, that's how I met my dearest hubby and get to be a multitask engineer..Sesungguhnya I've always believe in keberkatan dalam setiap perkara/keputusan kalau mendapat restu parents and bile dh kawin restu suami n parents. That's how I'm married to dearest abang. :)

Semalam interview with this one Bumiputra Oil&Gas Consultant, although mcm same je dgn my current company i.e. bumiputra juge, the difference is, this time it's a huge company with Petronas licence, therefore almost all projects are PCSB projects. The post was a Risk/Safety Engineer. The exhilarating part was, the post is more on Process safety, therefore my dream to come true. I've always wanted a job related to Process all along. And they're offering me a Lead Engineer post, hence I demanded better salary than what I expected coz I applied for engineer biase initially. But the down part is, I'm to be stationed at Kota Kinabalu for a year, plus a 1week visit to offshore every month. Berat, berat..so many things to contemplate..breastfeeding Amalia? Whom to take care of my kids? Where shall they stay, KL or KK? Away from Hubby? Another maid or just daycare? Tapi bile google most of them are not muslim daycare, as in none yg muslim that i found. Hubby said this is the best for my future. My Mama said just doa that Allah give the best for you and your family, thus if you don't get it, then maybe it's for the best. OK, I'll make Solat Istikharah and pray to Allah for the best for us, Amin ya rabbalalamin...

This 1st March, another interview with a Dutch Oil&Gas Consultant, SBM and this time it is for a Planning/Cost Engineer post. I hope I'll do well coz the company has a good track record in terms of employee's benefit and project-wise. 

Tomorrow ade walk-in interview with this huge oil & gas consultant, worleyparsons. Ingat saje2 nk try at least I can get soalan bocor for my next interview at sbm, coz the post that I'm going for is a Project Control Engineer which also involve doing costing and planning as well. 

Ya Allah, permudahkanlah segalanya untukku demi masa depan anak-anakku...Amin ya Rabbal Alamin..

p/s: special note to my kids, esok dh besar jgn degil2..dengar cakap mama n babah, insyaAllah dipermudahkan segala urusan oleh-Nya..amin..

Milestone: Afeef 1yr 10mth old & Amalia 3mth 2wks old

Dulu mase Afeef rajin sikit update his milestone,sejak ade dua anak, bukan malas, tp sebab byk sgt perkara to update terus bingung & x update...haih..

Well, to start with, Afeef is 1 yr 10 mths old, byk betul dh pandai mengajuk kte ckp. Indahnya Iman pn die dh bole hafal cume butir2 sebutan tu xbape clear. Pandai ckp Bye, Akum (assalamualaikum), sgt friendly kalau jumpe org esp org baru akan angkat tgn sambil ckp Hi! and bile nk pegi ckp Bye! pulak, suke baca alfatihah tp part "Waladdholliiin...Amin" aje sebutan die clear. Bole fhm instructions very well like sit down, take Mama's phone, cry (he'll pretend to cry too), wait (when i said to him wait first he'll sambung ATEE? as in OK? coz sometimes I like to say "wait ok?", no, come and eat, let's take bath he'll go to the bathroom straight and wait for me at the door, InsyaAllah by 2 yrs old Afeef dh bole construct full sentence ye syg..amin..pandai rimas, i.e. when we say lets take bath terus meluru ke toilet walaupun in the midst of doing something interesting, and especially when diaper dh berat. Xsuke diaper berat, sejak dpt adik, dah many times bile diaper berat he'll tarik2 sampai koyak and open it by himself as in lorotkan on the floor and run around bottomless! Tak pandai sebut huruf L tapi pandai sebut ALLAH really well, alhamdulillah! Sgt suke Maher Zain, obviously when a child likes Indahnya Iman, sbb after azan mesti ade lagu Maher Zain. Afeef sgt suke nyanyi nowadays, asik la humming and singing tp xdgr butir just the melody. Paling favorite is, "InchaAllah..InchaAllah..." siap macam tarik nafas dulu and penuh semangat nyanyi dgn high pitch siap kening kerut2...kelakar la anak mama ni kihkihkih! 

Amalia dh pandai pusing mengiring and dh tunjuk tanda2 nk pandai meniarap sejak masuk 3mths old, tp up till now belum bole lagi, xpe syg..take ur time..ikut normal milestone chart pn 4-5mths br start meniarap. She's a friendly baby just like her Along too suke senyum n ketawa bile org dtg tgk, but Amalia is friendlier in the sense that, die memang muke senyum. Duduk diam2 sorang2 pn senyum aje, girl agaknye. Dah pandai melekek2 ketawa sejak masuk 3mths old, the 1st time was with Babah. Babah borak2 dgn die tibe2 die ketawa melekek2 dgn kuat sampai semua org toleh (malam sebelum her majlis akikah). Dah start tgk tgn from 2mths old. Masuk je 3mths terus pandai tgk tgn and masukkan dlm mulut. Start 3 mths jugak dh kenal org, bile nampak Mama buat suara nk susu "eh..eh..eh..". Mase her Aqiqah i.e. wedding Alan, she was playing with me on the bed. Tibe2 her Che tarik her to different direction and facing her Che instead and ckp, "asik main dgn mama je, meh main dgn che pulak.." Terus nangis sambil kepala toleh2 tgk Mama. Sejak tu, when I gave her to someone else, her Che or Bibik or Mama Ngah, die akan diam mula2. But once she heard my voice, try pusing ke arah my voice and terus cebik and nangis sekuat hati. And bile Mama amik balik, mcm ade switch button, terus diam nangis. Manja Mama ni, selain Mama only Babah can hold him without her crying unless nk susu.

Forever a protective brother.

Afeef is now 1 yr and 6 mths and soon becoming Along!
Lama x update on Afeef's milestone so obviously dh macam2 Afeef pandai buat lagi pulak dh nk jadi abang ni lagi la tunjuk cerdik nye:
a) Dah pandai salam cium tangan, will do so obediently when asked to, since awal Ramadhan lagi i.e. at 1yr and 4mths old. Atok ckp bijak ni, nk practice utk dpt duit raya ek hehehe anak Babah..anak Babah..
b) Now sgt obedient bile ajak mandi or cebok. Bukakkan aje his pants/ tshirt  without being asked terus meluru ke pintu toilet and wait for me there. Why? Because he likes to play with water..hahaha!
c) Pandai kiss, bile ckp "Afeef kiss mama.." He'll plant a sloppy kiss on my cheek.
d) Dh tau what I mean by "HOT". And kalau nasi warna merah (diselaputi sambal) he knows it's hot and say "sss...haa..sssss..hhhaaa" indicating pedas. Yesterday I was eating nasi lemak and he look at my inviting red nasi and said.. "Naaakkkk! Ssssss..haaaa..ssss....hhhhaaa...nakkk!!" So I gave him a taste of it and he opened his mouth and the rest is history hahaha! Nampak sedap to him agaknya tp die x tahan pedas..And when I was drinking my hot milk, he came near me and said, "Nakkkk!!" sambil tgk my mug hopefully. I replied, "It's hot sayang.." And he turn away sambil geleng kepala and said, "Anakk!! Sssss...hhaaa...sss.."
e) Afeef is a very expressive boy, just like me. Whenever he's in excited mode, especially if he was playing with something yg sepatutnye ade sound or lights but xde sbb not switched on or bateri habis, when it is switched on and the toy came to life, terus menggigil2 satu2 badan die sambil tercopong2 muke die betapa menunjukkan die sgt2 teruja with the surprise...sgt cute n funny!
f) Afeef ade satu signature laugh...mmg xde sape akan bole tiru his laugh. The laugh came from suara dalam die..hehe mcm menyanyi pulak pakai suara dalam. Tapi yg pasti bunyi die mcm bergetar2 ade vibrato..dunno where did he get that..tersgt cute n funny!! Tapi kalau fikir2 balik maybe he's gifted with that talent since born sbb mase infant dulu bile die nangis, tangisan die bak kate Babah and Ucu Ana, ade vibrato. Nangis yg bergetar2...hihi!
g) Sangat susah nk makan nowadays, semua xnk, nk makan kene berkawan. Kalau suap org lain baru die pn nk jugak..
h) Sgt suke companion. Bile cousins die xde balik kampung, mula la jiwa die kacau...stress aje. Semua xkene. Likes to be in a crowd, he'll join the crowd but he'll not be joining the fun, buat hal sendiri. Org semua sibuk berebut kan Wii, he'll be in the crowd too but instead busy with main tolak kerusi and laci kabinet tv. Bak kate org putih, dare to be different hehe!

Word Jumble:
1) Naakk! = whenever he wants something, he'll say it loudly and clearly and very firmly..hmm truly ketua pengawas..
2) Anaakk! (sambil geleng2 kepala) = if he doesn't want something that's been offered to him.
3) Uwaii = If he wants to naik buai atok in the porch (sambil tunjuk buai).
4) Abiss = Ni rsnye dr umur 1yr 4mths die dh pandai ckp, whenever die tgk Indahnya Iman and dh abis, or tgk Alphabet Jungle and dh abis or makan/minum and dh abis he'll say "Abisss!" sambil tgn buat gesture dh abis n penat mama betulkan ckp "Finish.." die tetap ckp Abiss!
5) Dappp! = Pun dr 1yr 4mths, whenever he eats something nice, he'll say Dapp! Bibik ajar rasenye..

Hero Botak

Baru lepas solat dgn Mama


Main wallet mama is his another fav pastime..

Sejak anak bujang kami ni botak, rase mcm dewasa sgt..dh macam abang2 dah..belum dapat adik lagi. Macam2 dh pandai, maybe kepala die rase ringan so akal jadi panjang kot heheh..
1) Balik kerja semalam Afeef was outside playing, die mmg budak outdoor. Xsuke duduk dlm rumah terkurung or mengadap tv je, lagi appreciate activity luar like playing bikes, playing balls (sumpah banyak gler balls kat rumah tu, all the cousins except for 1, tapi bola die yg satu tu menjadi rebutan dgn syasya hihi..kids..) and kadang2 just jalan2 keluar peluh petik2 pokok (nk tolong atok landscaping ekk..). Anyways, upon hearing our car engine cepat2 die jalan toward us and Mama noticed his kengkang and bongkok dh kurang, jalan sangat tegak and x kengkang, nampak macho betul anak mama jalan mcm tu hehe..oh did i mentioned before about him walking kengkang n bongkok sebab terlalu berhati2, so dgn jalan gaya centu die rase COG lagi rendah maka possibility untuk jatuh dgn luka or sakit is very low sbb either sbb sgt stable or klu nk terjatuh pn sempat tahan...ehehe anak bujang kami yg sgt berhati2..

2) Word Jumble:
     - Makin banyak words dah dengar sikit2 bunyi, n cepat aje nk mengikut kite cakap:
        a) Ommee: comel
        b) Ba..ba.. (sambil tunjuk2 kt huruf2 jawi dalam Iqra' = huruf Ba
        c) Tatt = cat
        d) Bye = bidding goodbye (sebut sgt clear siap intonasi, waving hand n expression muke 10 markah)
        e) Air = air
        f) Abah = Babah
        g) Wawa = Mama (sedih betul xreti nk sebut mama lagi..)
        h) Bibik = Bibik (ni yg mama xpuas hati ni, bole sebut clearly isk isk)
        i) Ishh = Fish (ni antara 1st word die sbb suke sgt main fish, rasenye since die masuk 1year old)
        j) Tchok = Atok
        k) Hal = apehal? (Babah la ni, main2 ckp dgn die centu pastu die ikut...ishhh...)
        l) tcheh = shoes
       m) tho = go
    
 3) He even understood commands like:
       a) Put it back.. = he'll put back.
       b) Good boy = he'll clap his hands sambil tersengih gembira, suke kene puji, kadang2 die buat degil, when we said "put it back" but he didn't, we'll say "come on sayang, good boy..good boy.." and he'll immediately put the things back and clap his own hands and then amik balik the thing hahaha..gerammm betull..
       c) No = he'll geleng2 kepala
       d) Come let's iqra' sambil Babah pegang buku Iqra' = he'll datang cepat and sit on Babah's lap
       e) Allahuakbar = terus angkat takbiratul ihram and solat his way.
       f) Finish = he'll do hand gestures "Finish"
       g) Dirty = He'll say "wekk.." sambil jelir lidah. (sebab mama suke cakap "dirty..yekk.." sambil buat muke)

4) He already notice/remember the things that I always forbid him doing and he'll do it quietly in a corner that he thinks I might not noticed (nyorok2):
      a) Kutip makanan atas lantai and masuk mulut: Mase tu Mama perasan die kutip something and cepat2 pergi dekat 1 sofa at a corner and tersorok2 membelek bende tu with his two debab hands sambil tengok2 mama...and when I came nearer and said, what are you doing...cepat2 he hand over the thing which is sebijik kacang! ish..ish..
      b) playing with his nailclipper: Mmg disimpan dlm his toiletries basket and I placed it bottom most sbb biase die xkan jumpe sbb he always pick things randomly from the basket and normally he only pick up lotion bottle or powder or his comb which are harmless. One night while Mama solat isya' (which qiblat faces the toiletries basket, mula2 die solat same, after a while die distracted and went to the basket. Bole pulak this time he take out all the things inside and susun outside basket elok2 until he reaches something at the bottom and cepat2 lari with the "thing" ke belakang Mama yang tengah solat and duduk menggodek the thing. I was not sure what he found, and mase rukuk, Mama curi pandang (astaghfirullah xkhusyuk solat mama dibuatnye) because he sat sebelah mama just belakang sikit je from my side facing backwards and he noticed me looking, and I saw the nailclipper! Cepat2 Mama berdehem kuat and he understood my disapproval and cepat bangun and  put the nailclipper back into the basket! subhanallah bijaknya anak mama ni...

5) Sangat extrovert and social and peramah. Pantang nampak budak2 range umur less than 12 years old mesti nak berbual dengan becoknya sambil menepuk2 org tu and cakap dgn lantang, and biasenye budak2 tu akan back off a bit maybe sebab takut takut or intimidated by his forwardness huhuhu! Kalau kat Annur paed tu, sibuk nk main mainan org bukan niat merampas sbb die xrampas, tp mcm nk join same as though nk ckp.."eh jom la main same, xsyok la main sorang.." and of course budak tu biasenye akan melarikan mainan tersebut sbb takut..huhuhu!

6) kurang suke tgk cartoon (except for his alphabet jungle and the great numbers game), biase tgk cartoon tercengang seminit then terus bermain2..tapi kalau indahnya iman, bole tgk x berkedip mata, ternganga dari awal sampai habis, siap xpuas mesti nk duduk betul2 depan tv and pegang the tv cabinet. Die paling suke Ustaz Zulkarnain yang Qalam Suci tu siap goyang2 badan and langsung xberpaling even kte panggil byk kali. Kalau tgh syok main bola outside with cousins bile dengar je indahnya iman dah start, xkisah la zikrullah or asmaul husna, berlari2 masuk dgn kasut2 sbb nk tgk tv and terus terpacak dpn kaca tv walaupun ade sorakan cousins in excitement outside, akan terpusing kepala tgk sesaat then toleh tgk tv balik...subhanallah..Mama plan nak install Astro dalam bilik sbb nk encourage him watching English cartoons sbb cousins die suke tgk cartoon alihbahasa Melayu (adeke cartoon at Playhouse Disney Channel punye conversation "Cantiknya NIGHT ni.." rosak bahasa) but whats d point, Afeef bkn tgk pn...die lagi suke main and read books.

CPK

Dulu masa pregnant of Afeef, xde specifically mengidam anything cume perasan la selera tu more to masakan melayu. Sangat gile makan cili padi, walhal seumur hidup sebelum pregnant kalau makan any food nampak cili padi dalam lauk asingkan awal2 takut tergigit walaupun dh layu dek dimasak. Bole pulak tetibe mase pregnant every meal wajib ade cili padi hidup and make sure every suapan mesti ade 3-4 potong cili padi, kalau x xrase kick nye...ehhh pelik pulakk..lawan tokei betul (tokei = dearest hubby yang kuat pedas, die pun terbeliak tgk wife die yg aneh sbb die pn x mcm tu). Lepas tu suke makan ikan bilis garing, pun pelik sbb selalu asingkan awal2 mcm cili padi jugak, tp xla segila makan cili padi. Penyudahnya Afeef mmg bertekak melayu, sebijik Babah..ape Babah xsuke makan confirm die pn xsuke, haih kesian Mama masak lasagna ke mac n cheese ke semua xpenah dpt sambutan.

Tapi pregnancy kali ni, selera byk ke arah mat saleh specifically Italian. Makanan Arab and Jepun/Korean are big No-no sbb mase early pregnancy (xtau pn mase tu pregnant) we were in Korea, and asikla makan Korean food, kalau x pun Arab restaurant diterjah kat sane, so mase tu maybe sbb dh start rs fatigue and pening2 lalat so now bile sebut makanan arab and korean pn rs kembang tekak. Melayu tu tetap di hati, still suke makan ikan bilis and cili padi, tapi selalu rase teringin nak makan something western, kerjanya asik carik Waffle (Daily Fresh's is the best!!) and satu lagi kepingin pizza, pulak tu xnk makan the simple fast food pizza like Pizza Hut or Dominos (no offence to their fan but I personally think those pizza are nothing but a piece of bread topped with lauk-pauk esp those yang perisa sate la, tom yam la..lemak cili api ade?).

My definition of pizza is always pizza = Italian food thus mesti ade rase strong Italian herbs like oregano and basils and thyme whatnot. And disebabkan once a upon a time pernah plan a lunch date with Anim & Amir, which Anim initially recommended California Pizza Kitchen but later on changed our venue to House of Sundanese Food sebab suami2 kelaparan nasi hehe..And kebetulan pulak mmg nk treat this lovely couple lunch sbb terhutang budi yang amat atas penat lelah Amir pergi airport menyelamatkan my Freestyle pump yang nearly kene custom tax, so we planned a lunch date at CPK last Thursday at KLCC. Xsangka seperti dijangka the pizza was as described in the website, so Italian!! (although the name is California Pizza) Pictures speak a thousand words so they say unfortunately we were too busy berebut2 makan sampai terlupe nak snap pics tau2 dh licin pinggan so these pics are among what we ordered and are extracted from the website so explains the exaggerating texture but worry not coz the real one is about the same!


Thai Crunch Salad..wow sgt sedappp mcm rase Mieng Kam!

The Original Barbeque Chicken Pizza..hubby's choice yg suke BBQ

And we ordered this dessert yg sangat sedap dan sempat diambil gambar:



Punyela sedap pizza die, sampai balik kerja pn masih terasa2 pizza die dalam dinding mulut, and normally balik rumah from work terus dinner, but that day hubby tanye, "xlapar ke?" (sbb die tgk wife die ni relax aje dlm bilik). "Xnak makan bole x nanti rasa pizza ni hilang dr mulut.." I replied hahahah!

And the next day, I had a lunch plan with Tasya n Chura at KLCC, dengan xtau malunye mak yong ngidam ni ajak g CPK tp nak tong-tong sbb xde fulus huhuhu! Nasib baik la my dearest SFs ni sanggup melayan kerenah mak yong sorang ni, thank you darlings I love you soo mucchh mmuaahh!! So serba sedikit yang we ordered:
  
Wild Mushroom Pizza..the other 1 that we ordered smlmnye..
recommended by Anim...oh sedap3!

Portobello Mushroom Ravioli tersgt2 sedapp, a must try!
Also ordered smlmnye but with garlic white sauce pn sgt2 sedapp!

Me with Chura dearie, kenape Chura mesti nmpk chomell?? :p

Me & Tasya dearie..I hate my iPhone camera, it has no flash
so the result is this when you have backlight, thanx to the Flash application,
at least xdela silhouette je like the original one.
Oh BTW, they don't have Tabasco but that sauce bottle in front of us tu, lg sedap dr Tabasco!

Tp ni plg lazat..Key Lime Pie..sebijik nama dalam CafeWorld!
fuhhh terase2 lagi dlm mulut kemasaman+kemanisan+kelemakannye..

Afeef's 1st Geraham!



Baru discovered this morning masa tengah geletek die lepas mandi, Afeef dah tumbuh his 1st geraham tapi baru keluar the tips of the geraham. Dulu pernah nak buat his tooth chart tapi tertangguh pulak. But I still remembered his tooth chart quite clearly, Afeef start tumbuh gigi right after balik from Korea trip, i.e. at the end of his 10 months old of age. No wonder he keeps getting fever a few times before that besides due to the atmosphere itself, with his cousins asik demam berulang2 and berjangkit2. Memang from December to February asik makan ubat aje Afeef, baru baik dh demam balik. 

Memang budak biase 6 months dh tumbuh gigi, Afeef sampai umur die genap 10 months pn still have a gummy smile yg cute tu. Everybody upon seeing his gummy smile as usual with their usual typical gesture, "Ishh lambat nye tumbuh gigii...." And I as usual with my complacent and unworried gesture, "Ha'ah, x tumbuh lagi.."

Tapi bile dah nak masuk 10 months terus gigi2 depan die keluar almost serentak sebanyak 8 batang, ha amik kau..hehehe! I never really care if his main development like tumbuh gigi, merangkak berjalan and bercakap lambat or cepat coz my mum always said our siblings even, have different milestones. My brother, Adam as an example, umur 10 bulan dah berjalan, tapi umur 3 tahun baru bole bercakap. Kalau org tua tgk mesti akan ckp or paling2 pn ckp dlm hati agaknya, "Ish ish ishhhh kesiannn...bodoh agaknye budak ni..lembab sgt nk pandai cakap.." Alhamdulillah Adam sekarang is in his final block doing Medicine at IIUM Kuantan, bakal doktor ye tuan2 and puan2 budak yang umur 3 tahun baru pandai cakap tu..hehehe..

Oh and by the way, this is my latest FS tracking status, aduhh..dr ptg semalam until now still at Malaysia Foreign Custom, gegegege...neves nye..mcm tunggu result SPM keluar. Harap sgt x kene tahan kt airport customs, I've heard the custom tax imposed may be as much as 30% and sometimes almost 50%! 30% of FS is about RM300+, so that could sum up to about RM1500 a pump, macam beli at online shops jugakla gamaknye.. TT

Ahmad Afeef Ahza Al-Hafiz

Mase mengandungkan Afeef, Mama and Babah berusaha bersungguh-sungguh to inculcate the love towards Islam especially in Al-Quran. Tiap2 hari balik Subuh, Babah without fail bacakan Surah Luqman untuk Afeef supaya dapat anak yang soleh. Mama hari2 baca recommended Surah-surah untuk ibu mengandung, nak anak yang soleh, bijak dan cantik luar dan dalam. 

Masa bulan Ramadhan, I was pregnant of you and was in my 2nd months pregnancy. Sangatlah lesu and cepat fatigue especially balik kerja, maklum jela early pregnancy mmg lembik skit. Tapi demi anak dalam perut Mama gagahkan juga pergi Tadarrus dengan family Babah di Rumah Ibu di BK tiap2 malam lepas tarawikh, supaya Afeef menjadi seorang yg cintakan al-Quran. Bila ada kematian, Mama beria2 ajak Babah pergi melawat dan join group Nenek2 sedara Afeef khatamkan Al-Quran untuk jenazah sementara menunggu dikebumi walaupun kaki dah biru2 kebas duduk lama demi memupuk perasaan cintakan Al-Quran dalam diri anak mama dalam perut.

Alhamdulillah syukur yang tak terhingga kepada Allah swt yang memakbulkan, Afeef sekarang at a tender age of 1 year and 2months, sangat warak perwatakannya. Kalau Indahnya Iman program before Adzan at Astro Oasis tu cukup Afeef suka, kalau pasang mata x lekang dr TV tgk aje sampai la Adzan dh abis. Kalau pasang cartoon on Astro Ceria pn Afeef x sekhusyuk tu, sambil tgk sambil main/buat activity lain. Tapi bile Indahnya Iman, Afeef bole diri tegak like a statue and tgk xberkelip, kadang2 goyang2 badan sambil sengih.

Pantang Mama or Babah bentang sejadah, terkedek2 jalan cepat nk berdiri atas sejadah and terus angkat Takbiratul Ihram. Lepas tu solat i.e. Angkat takbir and sujud banyak2 kali and now dh pandai rukuk i.e. berdiri tegak then tunduk sampai tangan sentuh jari kaki hehe..Khusyuk anak Mama bile solat, bersungguh2, bila duduk antara dua sujud, siap tangan letak atas dua peha dengan elok dan tertib and tunduk pandang sejadah. Mama kadang2 bentang dua sejadah satu lg untuk Afeef sbb xnak berebut tempat sujud dgn Afeef, nanti Mama pulak solat x khusyuk geli hati tgk gelagat anak bujang mama yang seorang ni.

Alhamdulillah, doa Mama and Babah semoga Afeef terus kekalkan menjadi anak soleh hingga dewasa dan menjadi contoh yang baik untuk adik2 nanti insyaAllah, semoga adik2 Afeef semua anak yang soleh dan solehah juga, amin ya rabbal alaminn..

p/s: Last weekend bawak Afeef pergi kenduri tahlil rumah Babah's relative. Afeef was blabbering loudly playing with cousins of same age, sampai org tgh tadah tgn berdoa semua tgk die, distracted. Mama hushed Afeef a few times sambil ckp pd Afeef, "Afeef, say Amin...amin.." But Afeef x faham and  keep on blabbering excitedly then suddenly terkeluar mentol atas kepala mama, "Tingg!". At that time, Afeef was standing on the Lanai table, Mama immediately said, "Allaaahuakbar!" terus Afeef senyap from blabbering, angkat takbiratul ihram and perform Solat. Amazed Nek Uda, Moksu Anoi and others tgk Afeef...hihihi..

Medela Freestyle BreastPump

Previously, during Afeef time, I used Medela Mini-E mainly because it was Medela's Most Inexpensive Electric Pump and my only aim was to express BM for Afeef at the office regardless of the amount expressed. 

 
Later did I know that double pumping can optimize the production of EBM, and bile dah rase sakitnye beli FM yg sgt costly untuk anak yang sihat seperti Afeef yg sgt suke susu, barula terfikir nk buat kire2 balik and ternyata, amat berbaloi to invest in expensive double pump rather than investing on expensive susu lembu. Mula nak consider between Ameda and Medela, Ameda is very cheap costing only at around RM700 a unit while Medela costs at RM1640 the least in Malaysia, itupun kene beli kt online shop, mahal nye. Tetibe smlm terfikir pulak nk check kt ebay.

To my surprise, Medela Freestyle is just around USD347 including shipping, which is just about RM1163!! Murahnyeee...Anim baru je offer, nk pesan kt kawan die coming home from the UK. But Mothercare UK pn around RM1200 so still ebay is cheaper..

Now, I'm waiting for my PayPal credit card verification code. Once my Paypal has been verified which will take around 3-4days, I can proceed with my purchase~ :)
