Weaning soon!

Yes, sooner than expected.

Hehe. I dah excited dah sebenarnya.

We wanted to wean him at 6 months. But, guess he's ready for it. So so ready :) Always berlecap2 mulut dia masa we all makan. Grab apa saja and berlecap2 lagi mulut biler dekat ngan makanan. Semuanya nak masuk mulut.

We talked to his paed yesterday and she said at 5 1/2 months, dah boleh dah kasi puree dulu. Then later boleh la intro to bubur :)

BTW, he had his last triple jab yesterday and he did not cry, AT ALL! We were like woaah! Strong baby mommy! Good job! He just went terkejut jap biler needle tu masuk, but he didnt cry. Alhamdulillah. He's alrite. Happy btul.

And today, kami anak beranak pegi ke Mid Valley untuk mencari kelengkapan sebagai persediaan membuat makanan Rayyan. I only believe in organic food, so I will cook je for him.

Satu Gardens and Mid Valley kitaorg pusing to get a good and value for the money la barang2 yg nak beli nih. And also, menepati citarasa dan lifestyle kitaorg lah.

Last2, ini lah hasil tangkapannya! Hehe

Hand held blender by Philips. Advice dari aunty sedara Amin, Rina. Amin pun dah suggested this earlier pun. So, yeah we are happy with this purchase. Walaupun masih blum pakai lagi. Hehe.

Mangkuk, sudu and cawan dia. :) Best nya!

I had a wonderful day today, despite satu hari kena irritate ngan Amin. Haha. Sabar je la. :) Penat berjalan pun iya gak. Rayyan, Alhamdulillah, as always sgt baik dlm stroller, slept most of the time. Peacefully mak and ayah mencari2 barang di sana sini.

What do u think I should cook for his first SOLID food?

In my head:-

1) Pear + Expressed Breast milk

2) Banana + Expressed Breast milk

Heheh. Tell me what u suggest. Very much appreciated!

Nite!

Outing with TJ

Last Thursday, setelah lama plan... kami bertiga pun keluar ke OU utk berjalan.

Pagi tu bangun, nak tgk if Amin ada tweet tak. On fone. No 3G signal. Sekali fone kena barred daaa... Try to call maxis - stay on the line till the operator/helper ckp ngan i. Tapi tak muncul2, they asked me to call another number... Aiseh, u cut my number how to call la?

Went to Johan's room but he dah chow for his classes!

I stayed on the line lagi, but no one answered. i got pretty pissed! On the day Amin chowzy pulak tu nak barrd kan?! Hehe.

Amin got online, and ngadu la. heh. Last2 penyudahnya, I decided to go pay la the outstanding tu. Malas nak bertekak ngan orang ok. Unlike la setengah orang rajin nak bertekak ngan orang to get things their way. I malas. Dorang rajin. Heh.

Date ngan TJ pun dah tau wat time, cuma tempatnya jer tak tau. Gelabah tang tu jap! hehe

Rayyan took his nap before kita chowzy. So he must be kindda lapar. But I just left the house, went to Maxis and paid the outstanding of RM90 (tu pun nak kecoh and bar adoi!) And to baby room - feed.

TJ called and she came to jumpa sana. Snappy snappy.

Yeay, TJ got her BSB This Is Us CD yg she duk cari every where @ Rock Corner. A place u can trust ok! hehe. Nice!

Makan @ Kopitiam. Thank u TJ! Hehe. Lama giler tak makan kat situ! Sodap! Habis Kuey Teow Curry. Slurp. Ngan tauhu and ayam. Wowwie! We shared pulak french toast & peanut butter. TJ ordered that toasted roti + ice cream - sedap sgttt! Oh, and chicken chop kan TJ?

Sementara nak tunggu makanan sampai, this lil fella sudah mengamuk. I berlari sambil sorong stroller ok ke next baby room @ Jusco! Haha. The nearest i know. hehe. He lapar la plak. Adoi. Tadi minum ye tak ye jer. Dont mess with this guy if he lapar ok!

He screaammsss! Dah dpt susu - gelak2 pulak... tgk ABC charts la apa la. Aiyo.

Then, sampai balik Kopitiam, dia dah tido. So we had a good makan2. Hehe.

*Oh, I didnt take any pics @ Jusco baby room as my fone was with TJ*

As for me, before pegi, mmg dah tau apa I nak beli.

1- A bag for my breastpump.

I don't like the bag that it comes with. With that price - I shudve gotten a better bag tau. So I got it @ MissT. My fave place to beli small pouch/bags. Tee Hee. TJ made me sedar the purple one is nicer. hehe. So yeay! That's just RM20.

2 - Hairclips

I like the ones yg hitam and ada bump kind kat the ends. If not sakit. Sadly there wasnt any @ Sinma. Aish. So I just settled with the Purple ones walaupun sikit. Tapi cute kan? Hehe. I need this just to kemaskan my hair biler u know, bad hair days! Igot them @ RM3.90.

Wecari buku utk Rayyan. Tapi takde yg menar! So next time je la. :( Sedih. No books yet for his 4month birthday! We will find one soon! :)

Later that day, we all pun gerak jumpa Elhan pulak. TJ's first time. Hehe. He's now chubbier. Comel.

So we cousins just lepaked and borak2 while having dinner together. i had a good time... :)

Thank u TJ! Next - Pav huh? Jommers! I somehow lagi comfortable kat situ. Hehe. <3>

My hasil tangkapan :-

Rindus

Amin telah pun selamat menaiki kapal terbang pesawat Korean Air - ke Korea. Dia pergi utk ke Festival Filem Pusan. Best giler. I suruh dia kirim salam kat hantu2 Korea. Dia marah, sebab dia takut. Haha.

Betul la, Korea punya hantu boleh tahan takut cam hantu Melayu gak. Ok, I dah mula rasa takut lak nih. Nak bukak iTunes jap. :P Anak I tgh tido nyenyak dalam cot dia tu. Ya, dia tido dlm cot. Nak je suh dia tido sama ngan I atas katil, tapi dia tido agak lasak. Bahaya. Sayang anak!

He was very excited bout this trip. Announced it over our everynite family dinner. Hehe. I pun seronok for him. He dpt pegi jalan2. And he deserves this holiday. I hope he will enjoy himself. Dah pesan mintak beli kan anything Hello Kitty for me and Chopstix for Rayyan. :)

Ok, listening to these songs, helped me to not takut lagi. But, buat lagi rindu Amin :(

Kenapa rindu sangat nih? I can't sleep.

Yeap, tough times will not break us. They make us even closer & STRONGER. :) Thank you ujian2 daripadaNya.

I have his baju that he wore today. Saw it in the bathroom, hanging kat railing tu. I'm gonna sleep with it tonight. *Ni dah macam baru bercinta pun ada gak gayanya!* Masih kuat baunya. :)

Pagi tadi, he bangun awal. He online. And then bersiap. Kasi 'api' kat I, biler I tanya dia nak pegi mana. Dia jawab "I kena gi kerja la, Bie" Nasib, dia ubah cepat ~ "Pergi beli nasi lemak yang you nak tu!"

Hehehe. ngada? Tau tau.

So I pun ngan senyum lebar dan terus bgn. Tanpa perlu 'disuruh', dia telah set up barang2 mandi Rayyan. Yes, tau yg we need to cepat. Pehtu dia terus pegi.

Sementara dia pegi, I pun mandikan Rayyan. Susukan. I pulak set the table. Buat teh. Mandi. And suma dah siap by the time he balik. Kami pun makan breakfast bersama.

Around 1pm, kami pun keluar ke The Curve. Ke mana lagi kalau bukan ke Debenhams? Haha. Itu tempat favourite dia skang ok! He bought a pair of nice stylo jeans and a set of boxers. Byk lagi dia nak beli, nasib baik manager ada utk control. Haha.

Pada I tak perlu nak spend alot kan, if barang tu dah ada. Baik dia shopping kat Korea jer. Pastu, pegi ke Watsons! Hampeh... byk menda takde. Kami decided pegi Ikano lah, ada Guardian. Sikit lebih kurang jer haha. Dorang ni apsal tak jual travelers size shampoo things like dat kan? Padahal i think they patut ada.

Terima Kasih, bie! Dia telah membelikan saya set shampoo rambut yang baru! Haha. Yelah, shampoo and conditioner I yang ni dah nak abis. So, mmg nak beli baru la pun. So this time I pilih nih. I hope dia akan sesuai ngan rambut I. I bought a leave in spray conditioner - cos I kindda hate to pakai conditioner in the bathroom. Lagi2 now, that I cant take my time nak lalalala mandi lama with Rayyan kat dlm cot tu sorang2, kan? So, this is my answer la. Serum is a must! But I dah lama tak beli/pakai since I pregnant - yes - masa pregnant blow dry rambut pun ada dalam 5 kali je sepanjang masa tu. The serum, TJ recommend kata one of the best! So, tanpa fikir panjang grab ajer!

The product, bau nya sangat sedap. Kebekesanannya, akan diketahui kelak. Ok?

Harga pun takde la mahal sgt pun. The shampoo is about RM15~ and conditioner is RM20ish and serum is RM30ish. Not bad rite? Around the same harga if I nak beli brand dulu tu - Clairol.

Wanted to get the mask, which works for me. Tp cam tak masuk akal je kan when I dah drop the idea of buying the normal conditioner and change it to spray type. Haha

I will just do the treatment thingy twice a month thingy je la. Pantene right TJ? ;)

Anyways, back to our outing. I decided to kasi Rayyan susu sebelum dia mintak. Also sebelum kita pegi buat menda lain.

*I will do a review thingy on every Baby Rooms that Ive been to, in my next entry nanti*

Cari adapter pulak di Ace Hardware. I beli 2 container letak toiletries - one for us and one for Rayyan.

Bekejar pulak ke Kedai gunting rambut. Yes, skang Amin dah hensem la. Berambut pendek & kemas. I like la like this. Rayyan pun suka. Siap borak2 ngan Amin on the way home. I drove so Amin sat at the back and layan him.

Amin sang all our songs to him- "Belaian Jiwa", "Janji Tinggal Janji", "So much in Love" & many more. and he slept. Wow, he's truly a Dad's fan! Hehe.

I packed for him. As usual. I'm so used to it, that I think this was the easiest and fastest one! Haha.

- 4 Boxers + 1 Brief

- 3 shirts : 2 whites+ 1 black

- 2 P1 black T

- 3 Ts for tido malam

- 1 short

- 2 belts : 1for jeans + 1 for khakis

- 1 khaki pants

- 4 socks : 2 thin + 2 thick

- 1 Japan jacket

- 1 Ice hockey jersey top

- I bag of his toiletries

-1 smart casual Timberland shoes

Hahahaah.. ok, i boleh hafal ok! I even pack kan his passport 'purse'. I love dong all this, provided dia tau apa dia nak lah! Yes, I tak control, dia pilih apa nak I just pack and advice mana2 yg patut. Kita work as a team, thank you.

Sambil2 nih, tidokan Rayyan so he wont be cranky. We drove to KL Sentral. Having the lil one - we decided tak perlu la hantar ke KLIA. The traffic was ok. We got there well, on time la yang kita budget. Oklah, yang I budget.

Salam. We hugd. We kissd. Sadly Rayyan was sleeping. But he held Daddy's finger all the way from home to KLX! I'm sure he'll miss his daddy too!

I had a good day! I cant wait for him to come back.

Wondering how my weekend will be like without him :(

Happy Birthday, Abah!

Semalam, Abah turns 57years old.

As usual, beli present pun last minute. The other nite, they (my parents + Rayyan) were watching TV. While Amin & I makan. Mom talked to dad about Garmin - some GPS system. She used that when she travels around Singapore. Amin pun kata dasyat, mom knows about this brand. :P

She said, having this GPS will very much help them cari tempat. In the car selalu la depa ni sesat... hehe and the road signs in KL are not very helpful pun.

Ingatkan nak beli tu, tapi mahal je la. Fikir punya fikir. Mom suruh kita cari a fone that is touchscreen utk belikan as birthday gift. We ended up buying the Nokia XpressMusic (same with one that Alif has) Around our budget and has GPS too. Kami mintak install GARMIN system inside, and tada.... dapat la apa mereka nak... 2 in 1 lagi kan!

So pagi tu, Amin and I bgn awal and pegi makan breakie @ McDs. Sempat lagi I beli the Coca Cola Glass mug. Dapat yang kaler pink. Nak Purple. Tapi sebernanya dah seakan jer.

Yada yada...

Sampai umah, kami makan and i pun bersiap la keluarkan barang nak2 masak and potong mana yang patut. Hari ini saya masak untuk keluarga. Masak spaghetti bolognese ala ala simple jer.

Mom liked it, siap tambah lagi (which is not often dia tambah!) Hehe so Im glad everyone suka. Lepas makan, kami pun beri la present kepada my dad. He loves his present. Suka lagi sebab ada Garmin tu, also happy that he can letak 1000songs in there... hehe tak sangka that feature boleh buat dia excited. Ingatkan dia akan rasa cam dia tak perlu... hehe, tapi dia sebenarnya peminat gak music. His taste la. Masa muda2 dulu, he suka duduk and chill kat tepi his record player and just laaayyyaaann...

So Amin, pakar IT kita... godek la apa segala nak transfer data, pictures from the old fone to the new fone. Berjaya la gak kan.. hehe baper jam bie wat menda tu. Sure dorang pun pelik, apa la yang lama na nak wat tu kan? Hehe. Macam2 kekdahnya..

Malam tu, kami anak beranak pegi makan Japanese. Mulanya nak pegi Fridays, tapi cousin I yang keja sana takde pulak. Saje nak visit dia kan. So tukar plan jer. I had my fave Seafood Teppanyaki - Prawns & Cod Fish! Slurp! Sodap! Orgasmic! Uish, tak terkata ok! Kalau boleh nak lagi.

Hari ni pulak, TJ, Nek Nin, TJu & Tok Li came to spend time with us. Nek Nin dah 3 bulan tak jumpa Rayyan. Hehe. TJ pulak 1st time for her. WAh, we had a great time! Thank you TJ for the present WE all love them. Esp Mommy! Hahahaha… Pls pls do come again ok? Tak pun lets go outing heheh..

While we were all excited to reunite, Mr Chase, my CHAT NOIR (hehe TJ) - telah membawa diri. Time my parents and I were busy kemasing the house and what not. We realized tu pun masa around 12pm. Susah hati the whole time. Amin and I went to look for him naik kereta. My parents mmg banyak kali pegi. I agak susah hati tapi keep my cool. Aceh, cam biasa la. Sebab if i dah gelabah, mmg gelabah betul... annoying to some :P Biler TJ dah balik, my parents went to look for him again. Jalan satu SD nih, tapi biler time dah nak park kat umah. Nampak dia lintak jalan depan umah nih. Area dkt skit rumah En Saad (ha kan tak pasal2 nama neighbour dah kuar nih). Sebelum tu, my mom dah interview dah En Saad nih, ada nampak tak Chase. Ramai gak neighbour yang dok kat luar kena interview.. hehehe. U know friendly (PURE FRIENDLY haha) my mother is than u know la.. So kat luar umah lagi my mom dah...

"Chasey pegi mana? Mama cari..."

"Kak....! Kak....! Chasey dah balik..." Haha I was inside this room can dengar ok! heheh.. berlari dgn Amin turun and peluk mamat notty tu! Nasib baik Rayyan dah tido. That nite, Chasey go special treatment from my parents.

First outing with Tok!

Yeap, walaupun la kami ni suma duk serumah. Tapi semalam adalah kali pertama kami berempat keluar bersama2. Parents cuti awal untuk Raya. Memandangkan mmg byk menda nak buat. Kemas la kan, since we will beraya sama2 kat sini. Camni la caranya biler kita dah takde atuk & nenek lagi. Dulu menebeng kat umah ss2 & taman tun tu sampai malam. Heheh.

Anyways, Mom came into our room. Dah kul 11am dah pun :P Ajak kitaorg utk siap2 and berjalan cari langsir. I ON jer! Bistu nak duk umah ke? Peluang ni tak datang selalu. Bonding2 ngan parents kan. :)

So kami siap2, and off we go tanpa haluan. Tapi MISI ada. CARI LANGSIR.

Aunty Lina Hamid advise pegi Jusco baru kat Setiawangsa. Sasau cari tempat tu sebab baru kan. Plus dont think they are familiar with the place.

Got in and shopping sakan la pulak. Hehe. Macam2 barang umah yang my parents beli. Nak raya la katakan.

My mom also bought a tilam for Rayyan. So we can letak him nicely kat bawah kan. Also for us to bawak balik kampung. Nanti adalah dia tilam sendiri. Yes, takmo la susahkan nenek nak cari tilam & everything la for Rayyan. Im sure they all pun will be very busy. Dah kata raya kan. A few more things that I need to prepare and bawak balik kg. so far, everythings done.

Tak sabar pun ya gak. This will be Rayyan first time berjalan jauh. Jumpa Aunty Bah for the first time. Also Acun & Aunty. Eh, ramai lagi la. So, sgt excited! :)

Berbalik pada cerita, lepas ke Jusco.. Pusing kat Jalan TAR sbb my mom nak pegi SSF. Baper kali punya pusing ngan lari dari jam dahhh.. tapi mmg tak kesempatan.

Masuk pulak ke Hartamas, Solaris pun masuk... haha last2 masuk DAMAS. Wah best! Memula pegi Toys R Us. Tu Mak Rayyan la sibuk... hehe.. sekali jumpa plak kat satu playpen ni yang harganya.. perghh.. best! Haha.. rata2 kitaorg pegi cari playpen, paling murah cekai looking pun dah RM300!! RM 300 untuk playpen adoi... bukan kedekut tapi kitaog ni bukannya BANYAK duit seperti segelintir orang ingat... uishh.. Tapi kalau RM300 berbaloi nak beli, mungkin kitaorg akan usaha kan. Tapi kalau lawa pun tak, kualiti tak setanding harga... PARAH kan?

Tapi kat Toys R Us ni, ada sale.. kalau jadi member.. RM150 je satu playpen yg sangat ok looking and good condition. RM150! Wah, ini sudah bagusss! Confirm beli... sekali Mom kasi keluar duit da...hehe.. Thank u Mama... Ur the BEST!

Pehtu pegi change diaper and susukan Rayyan. For a place like dat, babyroom sangat mengecewakan. Jusco Setiawangsa nya baby room lagi best!

Dad lepaked at Times bookstore while Mom and I and si Rayyan pegi cuci mata dan bershopping. Huhu.

Kami pegi makan Japanese.. I had Tepanyaki Daging Set! My favourite. Yes, mereka memilih Japanese kerna saya. Dorang tau SATU SATUnya anak perempuan dia ni, suka makanan JEPUN!

Weeee... i must say, it was really delicious. But mmg takleh nak compare ngan our usual place la.

I had a great time with my parents. I'm sure Rayyan did too! :)

Parents were impressed on how super baik the lil boy is during this outing.. hehe..

Balik umah, Mom dah mula operasi kemas rumah. Amin pun balik almost midnite. He had event kat opis. Bro Jo pun ada app buka puasa kat tempat lain.

Enjoy the pics!

Rayyan first outing with his GRANDPARENTS. and MANY more to come!

Ni gambar dalam playpen and tilam baru. Aweks panda pun dah masuk sekali!

Nanti, Insyallah kalau ada masa... gambar Raya pun I letak. Gambar Rayyan pakai baju melayu kan? Hehe..

Weekend last sebelum Raya!

Rayyan pun dah 3 bulan lebih skang kan? Ceh tanya pulak, ya mmg betul. Jadi baju tido dia byk yang dah tak muat... Tang badan muat je, cuma tang kaki tu yang tak muat dah. Kaki dia ni panjang. Tapi harap la tak kaki kapal sgt. Insyallah.

Ada gak baju2 pakai hari2 pun dah tak baper nak muat. So we decided to store je la yang 0-3 months and keluarkan baju2 3-6 months now. Sian la pakai baju ketat2 kan?

Terima kasih kpd En Amin kerana tolong punggahkan almari tu and carikan baju2. I pulak tukang lipat and agihkan. Mana nak letak dalam box Pooh and mana nak simpan balik dalam almari tu dan mana jugak la yg nak pegi simpan terus dalam kotak dah.

Sampai siap la kita buat project nih. Wah. Hasilnya mmg lumayan. Rayyan mmg sangat beruntung. Byk sangat present baju yg dia terima. Tgk la kat bawah nih. Thanks kepada semua yg hadiahkan. Semoga tuhan la dapat membalas jasa u all. :)

Pada I ni dah kira byk ok! Kalah collection baju mak bapak dia.. :P

Jadi, saya conclude kan. Baju hari2 rompers style & sleepsuits letak dlm box Pooh dia tu. Senang la, pas mandi terus bukak kotak je. Routine seharian pun begitu.

Baju2 lawa pulak, masih disimpan dalam almari. Lebih kemas biler disimpan kat situ. Seluar kat bahagian dia, top pun kat bahagian dia. Senang nak cari.

Dalam almari pun ikut jugak by months. Supaya senang. Kalau dah time gopoh tu baru nak check, hm takde makna ok! Hehehe.

Cuma kekurangannya ialah, sleepsuits. So kami pun keluar la belikan anak kesayangan sleepsuits nak tido malam dah takde baju pulak dia.

My cousin, Alia, pulak mintak pesan buku dr sini. My aunties are going to be with them nanti. So, kirimkan la sekali. Plannya pegi ke MV Gardens. Coz, mmg ada kedai yang I duk cari - BORDERS & ALDO ( nak usha bag huhu ).

Mmg seronok shopping.. well cari barang la.. malangnya they dont have the books yang Alia nak, not even Rayyan's books by Eric Carle. Got la, but so buruk already!

Pegi ALDO pun, tapi bag yg saya nak takde colour yang disukai. Ada kaler putih, cantik. Tapi PUTIH? Hm, bahaya saya ni kalau pegang beg PUTIH. Seminggu mau jadi belacan bag tu. Pegi FOSSIL - mahal nak tak kena gaya. ESPRIT dah tak WOW! Sila beri cadangan nak beli bag kat mana yang WOW pls!

Anywyas, had to rush back home and buy buka foodies for my dad and bro. Mom was in Singapore for work.

MV Gardens rasa cam best la. Tak ramai orang. Tak abis pun lagi jalan nak usha barang pun. Nak pegi lagi lah!

Tapi I dont like their baby room. Siap ada toilet in there.. Wat the hell for dey? Rayyan was not comfortable at all. And I had to nurse him STANDING! Wo, salute diri sendiri jap masa tu sebab first time and tak sangka leh wat. He was crying and not happy with the place la kot. Interiornya lawa la, ala ala mahal. Tapi, ish. Dont like! Cepat2 settlekan suma and chowzie!

Sedihnya, satu haprak pun takde yang beli. Balik ngan tangan kosong. Bawak balik Nandos je la utk buka. Tu pun sampai umah on time!

Seperti biasa, biler dah penat... anak beranak pun terus tido sampai sahur. Hehehe. Kenapalah saya penat camtu dah eh skang...?

So on Sunday, baru sedar Raya is just the next weekend. Boleh? :P

Siap2. And keluar umah pukul 1pm. First to my tailor dulu. Then to Wisma Yakin to the boys punya tailor. Mak aih. Jammers. 2 Kali pusing, nasib baik laki ku itu dah pandai. Masuk one of the buildings and park kat situ.

Kitaorg jalan bukan main laju. Rayyan in the carrier. Tup tup. Masuk kedai and tried on his baju. Seluar agak besar, but lega! Ingatkan kecik, lagi haru nanti. Dah ckp dah, kalau besar skit takpe, saya boleh lipat kan. Kalau kecik, dah takde makna nya.

We had to tempah as the ready made ones are from 6months and above.

As u all know, mak bapak si Rayyan - TAK RETI SABAR! Heheh. Harus la dia pakai baju melayu on his first Raya. Rite? Baju melayu penting utk saya. Rimas kalau orang tak reti pakai baju melayu/tradisional time raya or kenduri. Pelik.

Then off to The Curve. Pegi nursing room dulu. Ada budak kat luar tu duk melalak. Adoi, berjangkit pulak kat Rayyan. Dia pulak nangis. Then the girl in the next cubicle pun nangis sama. Terjangkit gak. Adoi. Did the standing while nursing tu pun tak jadi. Alamak. Cool him down. Then lama2 baru la dia nak.

Pastu pegi pulak ke Mothercare. Belikan dia baju and paci baru. Ikut umur dia la. Yang dulu pun dah pakai 2 bulan. Kena la tukar ye dak? I sgt suka ngan tangkapan I pada ari tu.

Beli buku Alia. I rasa masa ni, tanya kat info counter. Punya la dia slang cakap ngan I, mamat nih. Terasa macam dia nak ngorat pun ada gak. haha. Gelak2. Wat lawak ngan I. I layan je la gelak. Friendly je la. Ala ala helpful. Seboleh2 nak tolong. Citer pasal fone I sbb I kept the details in my fone... siap tolong bawak I ke buku2 yang duk cari tu. Sekali Amin datang ngan stroller "Oh, are u guys together?" I was like "Yeah, yeah" mata lebih nak semangat tgk buku yang dia kata best tu. Dan dan "Ini la tempat dia, u can cari sendiri. *Thank you* in Korean" and he chowed! Hahahahahaha lawak! Tak pernah budak buku/nerdo ngorat I, so pelik skit.. selalu bad boys je.. Huhu...

Anyways, got her books and one book for Rayyan. This time Daddy pulak yang pilih. Im sure u all pun pernah baca buku ni masa kecik2 dulu kot. Its "Where's Spot?" By Eric Hill. Rayyan LOVES IT! WE are so happy that he loves to 'read'.

Settle segalanya. Bergerak ke One World Hotel pulak. Buka puasa with the fam. Byk selection. Ramai giler! Sampai kena duk kat luar. Makanan sedap la jugak. Ada Caesars Salad. Buat sendiri. Wah Sedap :)

Sampai umah, tak sabar nak pakaikan dia baju baru. Eh, bukan baju melayu. Sleepsuit sudah.

Ni lah, hasil tangkapan utk weekend yang lepas.

Notice the Panda kat sleepsuit dia? Comel kan? Ni dah confuse, mak ke anak yg lebih suka panda nih? Hehe.. 1st birthday bertema kan Panda? Hows that? :)

Maknya masih tak puas hati. Rasa cam nak gi OU balik esok sorang2 ngan Rayyan. :P

Nuzul Quran

Selangor cuti arini. So Amin pun cuti. First thang was to basuh our baju. Since all of our baju dah kat sini, mmg semuanya kena basuh dulu. Has been in that place for a long time.

Sementara tu, Rayyan and bapaknya amik peluang siap2 and tido and yada yada.

Sidai baju and terus gerak ke OU. Motif utama ialah utk membeli breast pad @ Mothercare and diaper dia yg makin kurang tu. Amin kasi chance la bini dia jalan2 kan. Hehe.. Fikir jugak untuk beli drawer plastic tu utk Rayyan's clothes. Coz, nanti dah tukar bilik... we need at least one. Tapi takde yg berkenan la pulak. Takper la next time jer kot.

Agak slow la perjalanan, mungkin sebab puasa kan. :P

Called mom to ask if she wants anything, tapi sh was busy in a meeting. Hmm called my dad, sbb kalau dah meeting sure dia akan balik lambat.. hence, buka puasa sendiri. Yes betul.

Amin sgt tidak gemar utk buka puasa di luar. So mmg pun. Ramai sgt org berlumba2 cam dah tak makan 100,080hari. Sedih kan?

So we tapaued TACO and Daves deli. I had the roasted chicken and Amin beli sandwich.

We had a quiet buka.. My lovely baby boy, ada nap time biler buka puasa. Dia akan tido kejap till suma dah abis makan. Alhamdulillah. Dia senangkan kerja kita suma.

Malam tu, I wore him a sleepsuit that Amin and I bought long time ago. Hehe. So cute.. As he's growing... tang kaki dia dah jadi sempit ok! hehe.. So we pakaikan his 3 months nya sleepsuit. So cute!

When my parents balik, we lepaked together. Dad was playing with Rayyan, Mom kat sebelah usik dia and jelir lidah to Rayyan. She just did that twice. The next minute, when he was with me... Mom said goodbye to him, and he pulak took out his tounge! It was unbelievable! How could he at 3 months, can tiru menda camtu kan? WE pun gelak laaaa... Johan got it on dad's fone. i will try to upload pic if he ever buat lagi! Funny boy!

Shopping again!

Hello again...

Finally... #2

Today, we all woke up pretty early.. yeap Amin now wakes up earlier than before..  hehe.. rasanya dah terbiasa waking up early everyday to work, earlier than EVER!

 

Amin decided that today we go buy more things for the baby... hm, I on jer! heheh.. I suka! suka nak jalan2! He also needed to potong rambut, it was already panjang and hmm.. asik tangguh2 je kan... tapi ari ni he made sure that he do it! Goodie, looking much better now! I just like it when he's all smart and neat looking. Sejuk hati kan? :) 

Boleh pulak time tu hujan, so we straight pegi ke OU. Parking as usual la susah sgt nak mencari. Got an illegal one, coz, dah terlampau ramai orang... As long as the parking tak susahkan org, ok jer.. kan? :P Alasan...

Oh, before we left the house.. we made a list of things to buy today... if poss..

 

1) Belly support - The most important thingy now.. 

2) Nursing Bra x 2

3) Breast pad

4) Tommee Tippee - BPA free and Anti Colic with Valve - 2 of the 260ml and 1 of the 150ml 

5) Changing Mat -  the Blue/Pink rubber kind from Pureen i think- Its nice to have the hippo type from Mothercare also! hehe 

6) Bottle brush - Tommee Tippee

7) Nipple Cream : Earth Mama Angel Baby or Medela Purelan

8) CAR SEAT! 

As soon as we arrived, we had King Pie for Brunch..and to alas perut, coz my cousin Kak Nany going to make Mee Bandung for me... ! Wee! yes, I love her Mee bandung the best! Also to visit my auntie and uncle.. as Ive not been seeing for MOONNNTTHHSS! the pie was good, me likey! lebih makan the pastry than the inti.. :) 

Straight to Mom's Care on the new wing section... tgk2 kalau ada jual the bottles or anything from the list... tapi takde yg apa we are looking for... then straight to the shop Bebehaus to go see the car seat... The car seat that we want ada available in 2 shops in KL ni jer - Bebehaus and Mothercare... but Mothercare bring in limited quantity and colour.. sabar la, biru and merah je boleh okeeh?

Heheh sian Amin, mmg dah tak sabar, as car seat mmg bahagian dia utk decide and cari the one thats good..  Luckily for us, the discount of 10% was still available.. Yee Pee! We didnt get the Chilli Colour that we like coz thats the 2009 punya colour.. we got to add a few hundreds for it kalau nak... everything else is the same.. ONLY colour.. hm, tak payah... colour is just colour.. nak kejar trend/up to date ngan colour jer... baik simpan duit tu wat menda lain kan? Apa apa pun, we are already happy with this one!

So, without much thinking (sebab dah berbulan2 thinking and surveying), we took it! Coz, mmg this is the best choice for us.. and the price pun reasonable to compare to the other convertible car seats that are avaible. I seriously think that it is even better than BRITAX or even MaXI CoSI... (no offense to anyone yg beli or planning to buy, its just our thots la) 

Amin wanted to get the carrier type so its mobile, baby can be put in there and bawak la kehulu hilir and it can be as a infant car seat gak! But you see, if we get that, the carrier cost around RM850 and to be an infant car seat you got to BUY the base which cost the same RM 850 around there- additional...! Infant carrier boleh guna dlm umur 12 months or a certain Kgs. Most of the time, boleh je la sampai 8 months if you have a big baby.... then later u got to buy another car seat RM 1,200 for 12months and up to 4 years old.. :) Not worth it kan to have byk2 barang and nak kena beli berkali kali.. and you eventualy spend more money...rite? Since mmg agak budget tapi dlm nak beli yg paling elok and safest for baby... and not spending more than we shud, so the answer was CONCORD ULTIMAX! You can read all about it here

 

The shop also sells the Medela Swing Breastpump that I was looking for.. Normal price is RM768. And I also mintak TJ's help to find me one in Melb. She can found only one shop in Melb (aiyo tak laku ke Medela Swing di sana? hehe) and then the price that she got was RM600! Jeng Jeng Jeng... I was excited and tunggu time nak ckp ngan TJ to just buy. I asked mom and she said to spend so much on the breastpump as I might use it for a while and give up. But, I SERIOUSLY want to breastfeed my lil one. Coz its the best for the baby, immunity dia, brains development and suma will be better that other baby who takes formula milk. And not forgeting the BOND that the baby and I will have.

 

Since Ive put my mind into it, and I tot, whatever... I will get this good pump and try my best to breast feed this baby... so, not only me, Amin and the rest of the family will have the chance to feed him as well.. its also portable and I can bring to office when i start working. SO I seriously hope that it'll be smooth sailing for me to experience and giving the best for the baby... and thats why WE BOUGHT IT!

 

Since, dah beli the car seat, I am now a member, we got 10% off for the breastpump, RM690 jer.. so ok la tu.. in between ngan harga kat Melb. But apa apa pun, thanks to TJ and Auntie Anin for your help pegi cari ok? and for everything else uve done to help us..! :)

Btw, Farah.. if you nak beli anything from there, let me know.. u can use my membership 10% discount.. nanti i bagi my number ok?

 

Me paid and we off to Planet Enfante to cari for the other stuff... Sadly the bottles that yg BPA free takde, so I will look out for that someplace else.. even in Mothercare pun takde... aiiseey! geram gak la... in Mothercare nursing bra dia agak mahal gak la and its quite small for me.. so, I will have to go cari for it someplace else.. Adoi, tgk la Insyallah, we'll go to Babyjaya again to get the rest of the things pulak nanti... its cheaper there...

 

It was all rainy yesterday and we straight went to Putrajaya to my auntie's. Its was good to see them all there. Plus the kids, Khalis, Cik Da and Cik Ya! eheh.. Lisa was there as well, kurus dah anak sedara i tu! :P

 

I bought them Cheeze Choc from Secret Recipe and they all loved it! Ah goodie! Kak Nany's mee bandung was the bomb.. alot of  tauhu and ayam in there... yummy.. lepaked and just spending time with them.. ask la my auntie pasal menda nak beranak ni suma kan...

 

Oh, Mom and auntie Lina, will jahit the bengkung for me and baby... :) nice! coz kat luar tu ada jual, cuma kecik jer... so tak best.. nak yg custom made!

 

We took out the car seat to let Cik Da and Khalis try on it... they both love it! hehe.. so hopefully my lil boy will too! Its just nice coz Cik Da is 3years old and Khalis is 4... 4 years old is the maximum age for the seat.. but still looks ok... cuma tak baper nak pasang btul lagi.. berbaloi la rasanya! Alhamdulillah.

 

Mmg saya suka nyimpang... anyways thanks alot to my Mak ngah and family for having us and masak dinner...

 

Terus ke citibank to settle all my outstanding.. hehe.. its all cleared now! Woo hoo!! Alhamdulillah. Hope that everything go smoothly...

 

As we sampai the house, kita pun try la the car seat in his car... sbb kalau tak muat or takleh, we can send it back to them, at least a day after la.. sbb semalam was hujan and all kan? We tried the rear facing and also front facing for both seat passenger and sear belakang.. its all look ok but agak sempit skit la since we have a small car. Yg pasti, baby has to be in front.. coz, in safer and lagi kuat when he's infront.. pastu I can be at the back to jaga him.. if he's at the back, both of us pun takleh nak tgk dia... mana la tau kan.. kena perati la.. dun worry, coz, we have no air bags so its SAFE to put the baby in front.. Pastu, kalau dah ada seat cam tu.. sah2 la boleh 3 org jer in our car... dah tak muat dah lagi... hehe.. kitaorg pun imagine kalau balik Kampung Amin kat Segamat tu.. like we always do during Raya time... pun, selesa for all of us.. cuma nak letak stroller tak dpt la...  or barang2 besar ke kan... adoi, best btul berangan! hehe..

 

So, I will leave you here with the pics! eheh.. and tell me what you think ok?

Here's the Medela Swing Breast pump... :D nggee ngeeehh.. with BPA free summore! so cekai looking kan, padahal.. mahal woo! 

here's how the pump looks like... 

this is the view from where im seating.. or will be seating nanti... not bad eh?

kasi close up skit lagi.. :)

;) 

this is how it looks like.. :) and then the colour is also nice rite? Matches Amin's car! 

Ok then, I will have to continue with Work.... baru je makan ubat, skang nak tunggu Teh Bunga + Ais from Black yang gi tolong belikan.. susah gal nak jalan skang.. sakit2... :P
