Happy 22 Months, Rayyan Ilhan!

my sweet baby is all grown up

Wah, just 2 more months and he will be TWO! Time flies, really!

He’s now so energetic, I don’t know where he got all the energy from. We are also thinking of bringing him to those playclasses like Gymboree or Tumble Tots. But, I haven’t decided or surveyed properly to which one I’m bringing him to. More or less, they are the same. But of course, pilih yang mana suits him best.

Apa yang penting, we've already found a kindergarten for him. Haha, I know too early for that. :P

His everyday routine is waking up early in the morning when Dad gets up. He’ll ask to watch some cartoons, breakfast (a bottle of Pedisure/ a bowl of ChocoChex/ a slice of bread with Nutella spread).
Then mandi will take about 45minutes pun ada, coz he just loves the water. I let him play in there sampai puas. He really enjoys his bath time.

Around noon he will have his nap. By this time, I will go down and cook lunch for him. Makan right after nap, which normally he will have rice with fried chicken or fish/ daging & kentang masak kicap/ kari ayam/ sup sayur. Once in a while meehoon goreng/ spaghetti bollognese/ sup macaroni with beef, carrot, potato, celery.

After our lunch, he’ll go watch more cartoon on Playhouse Disney Channel while having another bottle of Pediasure. He doesn’t normally finish them. Just half. So I only make 120ml. But his habit is, he doesn’t finish all terus. Mesti tinggalkan skit. I’m guessing he doesn’t like the bubble part bila nak habis tu kan. :P So now I make him 190ml terus, walaupun rugi la jugak coz dia tak habiskan tapi at least he drinks a bit more. Sebab lepas dah susu botol, nak pulak breastmilk.

Selepas itu adalah acara bermain. Alone or with me, read some book, or just layan saje lah dia with anything he wants to do.

Around 7pm, bersiap untuk mandi and I will be in the kitchen again for dinner. Dia jugak akan normally ikut and play downstairs. Dinner. Play with Dad pulak and around 12am average la dia tidur. Quite late kan? Well, he nap siang-siang tu agak lama.

• Masih tidur mata tidak tutup rapat
• We are keeping his hair long, not long long, but just see sampai mana and will cut it off.
• Belum start with potty training sebab I am not ready yet :P
• Dia suka makan pipi ikan goreng and kari is his favourite dish.
• Suka jugak mencampak barang. Berapa kali dah kena tegur and marah tapi masih teruskan jugak. Mungkin dia seronok, mengeksperesi diri.
• Managed to solve his first board puzzle. Got all crancky at first but, baby, practice makes perfect. Kurang dah marah-marah tu nowadays. Gotta understand that babies don’t have much kesabaran like we do. They easily get annoyed and frustrated.
• He’s so clingy to me more than before. He needs to see my face, if not mula dah nangis. I get irritated too at times. He’s whinny too. But I understand that he has no other way to tell me. Let him be clingy, InsyaAllah, bila dah besar he’ll come see me when he’s down and not anyone else.
• He loves watching movies. Cartoonlah, as soon as he wakes up dah mintak bukak. His new faves are Megamind, Tangled/ Rapunzel, Beauty & the Beast, Ratatouille and Chuggington. Suka betul.
• He likes ChawanMushi & Ebi Tempura.
• I will have a hard time kalau nak potong kukunya, memang kena tunggu time tidur. Tak kasi buat kalau dia sedar.
• He once said “Cool” while watching Chuggington :)
• “Nom” if he wants to drink.
• We take him for evening walks as much as we can, if Dad is around that is, and he loves it! Lambai semua kereta yang lalu lalang
• Menari macam buat silat je :P I will upload the videos later.

Happy 30th Birthday, Amin!

My 30th birthday boy!
Ok, this is a day late entry but,

We are olddd! hehe but of course, you are oldER! My birthday boy turned 30 on the 30th 03 2011 ~ This is definitely his year!

Petang tu my parents ajak for a birthday dinner at Sakata. Of coz, a japanese resto. Dah lama sebenarnya tak pegi makan Japanese yang betul-betul punya. The food was good, tp I had to jaga the cranky Rayyan... so kurang puas lah.

and they got this for Amin as birthday present!
His bff, Alex, sent him this supercool cake to his office as a mysterious sender :P So sweet of him!

Angry birds - Green Tea & Red Bean
Love you, B!

Baking week

Kasi je bab baking, memang la I will be the most rajin person there :P 

2 weeks back, I've got an order of Red Velvet Cuppies for Didi's Engagement (Amin's cousin). Supposed to letak in the giftbag tapi besar bagak pulak. Jadi letak je kat dessert area. Her mom said that everyone liked it so yeay! 

I guess I've mastered that :P perasan, I mean, now I know how to do it properly and all. Alhamdulillah. Berkat usaha ntah berapa cake dah buat. At least once a month! hehe Since the ingredients agak mahal, so I would have to wait for my allowance every month. 

Anyways, beralih kepada recipe baru. 

I made these babies this week. 

This is more for Rayyan. Something he can snack at home or bekal bila keluar. Sedap jugak... 

Then I made this... Normal almond macarons with dark chocolate and Nutella ganache fillling. Yums. 
Waiting for my macarons to dry. 

Yeap, sgt crack and leper. The batter was cair so I couldnt control the flow. 

The filling was better this time. 

Even my mom liked it. She's never impress much with the cakes I make, not a dessert person at all. But she liked this one. My dad who will try all my cakes pulak, doesn't like this one. Too sweet katanya. Amin pulak, said he likes it and better from the 1st one :) 

Walaupun gitu la rupanya, I will try summore. 

Honestly, I don't like to eat cakes and all these so much. I'll eat most is 2. I just LOVE making them!

Deleted post

So I've decided to hide my previous post. I kept reading them again and again and eventually, I keep adding more stuff... lama lama dah jadi tempat lepas geram. At least apa yang terbuku di hati sudah pun 'dilepaskan'. Tarik nafas panjang, lega hati sedikit. Alhamdulillah.

Hide post bukan sebab takut, tak lansung. Nak takut apa pun, kalau cerita perkara yang betul? Sebenarnya ialah untuk my parents, Amin & Rayyan. Saya masih menghormati dan menjaga airmuka mereka. Mereka ini lebih penting daripada segalanya. Sebab kita kalau dah marah atau geram, laju je jari jemari menaip kan? Emosi menguasi jari, eh diri. Sibuk I cakap yang we need to talk and be adults, kalau I published the hate entry pun apa bezanya. The story will be one sided kan? Lagipun kalau nak buat hate post ni, bukannya akan ada kebaikan kalau orang berkenaan baca, mungkin akan menjadi lebih keruh keadaannya nanti. Mana tau, kalau ada lagi peluang for us to forgive and forget. Let's hope for that.

Initially, inilah dia perkara penting yang hendak disampaikan. Yang ini adalah motifnya.

Buat apa nak kejar dan hirau mereka yang sudah membontotkan kita, hargai orang-orang yang sentiasa ada bersama dalam susah dan senang.

My point here is that, thank you for making me appreciate more those who really care, who love, who are nicer to me more than I've ever been to them,  those who gives me strength, support and help without me having to ask. I am so grateful.

I thank God, my life is not perfect but hati ini senang dan bersih daripada kebencian. Alhamdulillah.

I wonder why too...

From a friend's tweet:- 

 
how come ppl who has more enemies than friends, who likes to gaduh w everyone never seem to suspect that maybe THEY are the actual problem?

OMG, sangat betul...!

Bapak I kata...

Bila kita sudah ada musuh, mula lah berlawan dengan orang itu, like siapa lagi bagus, siapa yang lagi baik, siapa yang lebih teraniaya, siapa lebih terluka, siapa lebih berjaya...

Ada kala terasa macam kita nak menang dah, atau dah memang pegang dah piala imaginasi kita tu...

Kita sebenarnya hanyalah berlawan dengan diri sendiri.

Jadi... Rentiiiiiikan je laaah!
