Jealous dengan baby

Last year, DrWan gave this to Lil Adam for his birthday. I call it BabyLion. Ni gambar hari pertama dia dapat... siap heret pi Pasar Ramadan lagi.

Last nite, masa dinner Lil Adam enjoyed his meal so much. Ngam2 abis makan, dia buat perangai. Aku yang hilang sabar ni terus heret dia naik ke bilik, switched off the lights, closed the door... apa lagi? Melalak la dia kat dalam tu sorang2. Tapi dalam bilik tu, the TV was on.

Ada la dlm 10 saat je, aku buka balik pintu tu (sebab xnak dia trauma).
Sambil tu, aku buat2 cari Baby Lion... "Mana dia Baby Lion sayang Mama ni?"

Lil Adam: Baby Lion takde.

Me: Haaa...ni dia Baby Lion. Saaaayang dia (aku kiss lion tu berkali2)


Then, I started talking to the soft toy, kununnya kalau BabyLion notty, mama kurung... Baby Lion baik, good boy, x meghap kan? (*terasa macam orang sewel pun ada)...


MrHubby dah hint2 "Sudah-sudah la tu, kang anak merajuk kang!"

Tapi aku dengan hati keringnya buat2 main, geletek BabyLion tu (macam selalu aku main geletek2 dgn Lil Adam).


MrHubby: Adam... cepat say sorry to Mama.

Lil Adam geleng.


MrHubby: Tengok, Mama. Dia dah merajuk.

Tapi, immediately bila aku hulur tangan, nak pulak dia terus dok atas riba, sambil cakap "BabyLion taknak..."

So, pun malas nak biar berpanjangan... I hugged Lil Adam... and continued watching the TV.


One minute later, tiba2 Lil Adam buka pintu (mind u, masa tu gelap gelita sebab we have switched off all the lights) dan dia pegi kat tangga sambil berkata "Tekan..."

I thought he said "Tukan" (read: "Bertukar!" mcm Masked Rider Kabuto selalu sebut sebelum bertukar rupa).

MrHubby stood up and went to him and turned on the lights (dlm hati : Ooo...nak suruh tekan suis rupanya!)

MrHubby: Haaa..tu la, Mama. Tengok apa dia buat?

Aku yang terpinga-pinga pun tanya "Napa nye?"

MrHubby: Dia baling BabyLion ke bawah (kat tangga)

Me: Alamak! Sampai macam tu sekali? Kalo dia jeles dengan adik dia sendiri, macam mana ekk?

Ngeeeeee:P Aku terus cuak.



These are some pics of Lil Adam jeles kat BabyLion.


Ni konon dengan murah hati tonyoh BabyLion kat Mama's bon-bon.

When I said, Okay...Bonbon for BabyLion. No bonbon for Adam....


Melalak la pulak! (hehe..aku memang suka menyakat budak2)


Setelah mendapat apa yang diidamkan... senyap la dia...

The First Cry

As the title is The First Cry, I wouldn't babble about the moment the waterbag broke, rushed to the hospital, VE, etc. Fast fwd to few mins prior to birth and the feeling la kan? It's a mixture of feelings, I can say.

I was in the labour room, menahan sakit contraction yang selang entah berapa minit. Segala doa yang aku tau, aku baca setiap kali sakit tu datang. Although the decision is ultimately mine, I was glad upon hearing the midwife saying “It’s progressing well, looks like u can deliver normally.”

Yang lawaknya, aku sibuk tanya MrHubby "Sekarang pukul berapa, bang?" time when the contractions are minutes apart, and he said it was 11 a.m. I was panic, bcoz I remember people saying...if the baby is born during mid-day, he/she'll be stubborn! Nak push, x boleh... bcoz I had to wait for the cervix to dilate a lil bit more. I was 50% frustrated if I couldn't deliver the baby before noon.

So, I told myself that anything latter is just a waste of time, hence I started pushing. Lagipun, masa tu I was so excited to see the baby's face.

When MrHubby was asked to stand near my legs to see the baby's head, it was so enthusiastic! Lagi la I couldn't wait. So, another big push....and......

"Uwaaa...uwekkk" (*tak tau camna nak explain bunyi baby masa tu*)

The baby's out! Alhamdulillah....I was so relieved! I felt so happy... and alive! Hilang segala rasa penat.

And I eagerly asked MrHubby again for the time (hoping it's not noon!) He smiled..."It's 12pm".

Hahaha. But, I was lucky, u know bcoz, the Dr.'s watch was only 11.57am. So, tak boleh la kata my baby ni degil.

Then, Dr. pun julang the baby for me to see with my own eyes. Yes, it's a boy! His little cry was still in the atmosphere, and I just lied there.. contemplating the sweet moments. I didn't bother to ask whether he is healthy, he has enough fingers/toes, etc. All I know is, I wanted the moment to be memorable.

They later put him on my chest (while cutting his umbilical cord) and I tickled his little feet. Masa tu, air mata bergenang... I was so touched. Subhanallah! He's so cute! With his eyes closed...I was one proud mom! (I know all mommies feel the same, but I am prouder for the normal delivery of a big 3.75kg baby!).

After, he was cleaned, he was handed to the proud Ayah for his first Azan & Iqamah.

This pic showed the first loving moment between me and my little darling, breastfeeding. I was surrounded by the curious, young unmarried nurses who were eager to know "Sakit ke, kak? Seronok kan dapat baby? Susah tak nak bersalin?" yada..yada...




The proud Mama & Ayah... (tak nampak muka letih pun, kan? sebab excited sangat)

Born 3.75 kg/11.57 am
18th September 2007/6th Ramadhan 1428
Hospital Putrajaya

I was overwhelmed bcoz our first visitors were Pak Ngah and Mak Ngah (kiranya betul la diorang ni anggap aku macam anak sendiri). Parents aku pun x datang sampai hari ke berapa ntah (okay, I'm a bit sad there).

But hey, besides my friends, someone came in to the ward...asking me "Is this Is? That's alright, U don't know me..." My, I was surprised! Cuak pun ada...She's actually a new friend (Jasce, whom I have never met before, we just YM few days before I gave birth)... Best kan? Baru kenal pun, siap datang bawak lampin, barut bagai.

Ya, aku terharu...tak sangka aku dah ada junior. Macam tak percaya, but that's it. It's a potpourri of feelings, everything is mixed up, but still I couldn't find the right word. Probably, suffice to say...it's INDESCRIBABLE!

Sekarang, aku dah gedix nak pregnant lagi... bcoz I wanna have that feeling again. Though it'd be the 2nd baby, but it'd still be The First Cry (of the second baby). Kan? Kan?

Labor Story

This entry has nothing to do with the upcoming Labor Day ye. It's about the labor mommies have in the labor room.
Almaklumlah... lain mak, lain citernyer...
(tingat terkekeh-kekeh dengan Yaya & Fizamior bila citer pasal bersalin anak masing-masing)

Tagged by Salzahari.

1. 3 sakit yg anda takut bila mengandung / nak bersalin

• Sakit contraction (ni yg paling sakit, masa bersalin, x sakit pun)
• Sakit hati bila ada org inconsiderate terhadap my needs & wants (hoi, aku pregnant la!)
• Sakit masa dlm pantang (xbaik2 lagi ke stitch nye, sampai aku duduk pun kena senget)

2. 3 proses yg anda harap boleh skip time mengandung/ bersalin

• V.E : rasa senak la bila dia seluk tu. Hampes! Aku terajang kang, baru tau.
• Kencing kerap sangat dan berjalan slow-slow (sebab I jenis berjalan mcm ribut)
• Lenguh/sakit badan masa penghujung2 pregnancy (tido mengiring, terlentang, semua tak kena)

3. 3 beza labor story (normal/ induce/ caesar).

• Normal SVD is always preferred, senang nak berpantang. Melalui proses kelahiran tapi aku terlupa pulak masa tu ada risiko boleh mati. Kalo mati, harus la aku xdan tobat...Hehehe
• Induced? Hmm... rasanya mcm tak terlibat. Anyway, bila lagi nak dapat pahala sakit melahirkan kan? Kalo loya/lembik masa mengandung dan sakit melahirkan pun dah tak tahan toksah la nak demand pahala lebih-lebih.
• To me, sapa yang saja2 mintak Caesarean (bukan sebab situasi membahayakan nyawa baby & ibu) adalah rugi... dan tak cukup berani!

Okay, mangsa seterusnya utk citer tentang their Labor Story are...

1) Reitak

2) Izan Ishak

3) Jiji

Pot Pot Pot!

Since Lil Adam was small, Adri has tried to teach him to rub his tummy to say "I'm hungry."

Adri is seorang lelaki metro yang sayang giler kat Lil Adam.

p/s: Wawaaakkk!!! Tengok ni, saya puji awak kat blog saya. Nanti musti ramai awek klik kat link awak sebab awak ni fatherly (eheks!)

Only recently that I realized that Lil Adam showed it.

He rubbed his tummy and patted it, saying "Adam is hungry!" (My! I was glad!)

(actually I taught him to rub for "I'm hungry" and to pat for "I'm full.") Whatever!

Since the past 2 weeks has seen him cranky/meghap more than ever, that morning as we reached the sitter's place, he made that boring look again.

So, I offered him some Honey Stars and at that time I said "Mama is hungry.." *rubbing and patting my tummy* and I said "Pot!Pot!Pot!"

He smiled.

Apparently, sometimes, silly antics do work, ay?

What about u? Care to share ur silly antics with me?

Ada apa dengan tudung mahal?

What is your favourite tudung/scarf?

I love the conventional tudung bawal and tudung cotton berbunga, the former is versatile whilst the latter is not prone to wrinkles (senang bawak travelling). In fact, my tudung bawal pun bukan yang jenis berbatu sakan (they call it air mata Nora Danish?)... ye la kan pegi keje siang buta, nak lip-lap mendenye?

I hardly own any tudung bermusim: Waheeda la, Ekin la, Fareeda la, Ariani la, Mawi la (sejak bila pulak Jawa botak tu pakai tudung?).

However, I have started wearing this so-called tudung sarung (I call it tudung sotong..hehe, sebab kepala nampak mcm sotong!) when I bought it to be worn with selendang.

My first time wearing it... siang tu beli, malam tu kuar dinner with DrWan's family terus pakai (ketaq tak dan dan) :P

Not bad, ay?

So, I bought a few more (cheap ones) just as tudung basahan and it's handy especially when I really use 'em for 'basahan' masa masuk sungai (during field trips with students).

Last weekend, I got this flyer atSACC Mall. Look at this...

okay...kasi close-up sikit

Notice the price? RM48 to RM120 per piece!

and as for this one....RM258 is the most expensive one!

Giler ahhh.. ko pakai tudung mahal-mahal, confirm masuk syurga ke? Hahaha.

Or like I always teased my MIL (when she told me about expensive telekung somebody bought) "Ooo... telekung tu, kalo pakai sembahyang, doa terus sampai kat Tuhan. Hehehe"

I dunno friends... some people buy expensive tudung/scarves like these kalo untuk special events (wedding, dinner, etc.) ... understood la. Tapi kalo buat pakai hari-hari, I think actually... these people just don't know where do they buy similar tudungs of the same design, same quality at a much cheaper price!

Besides, I believe in styling the tudungs to make it outstanding. Hence, although I just wear my old tudung bawal, I still get compliments such as...

"Eh, eh..macamana awak pakai tudung nie?"

"Kreatifnya..berapa lapis tudung u pakai ekk?"

"Tengok si Is nie, camna la dia lilit tudung dia ekk?"

Alaa..kalo pakai tudung mahal2 pun, tapi pakainye setakat klip senget at tepi dan satu lagi toncet kat atas kepala, bang karan jer... Tak nampak pun mahalnyer...

Should I or shouldn't I?

Kawan-kawan, I need ur advice la...



Gini...

Early this year, I have expressed my dilemma of sending him to the sitter or to change to another daycare. Eventually, until today, I keep sending him to the former.

However, these days, Lil Adam asyik buat taktik lembik lutut when I send him to the sitter's place. I dunno why.

But there's a new toddler who is kinda kawan wrestling Lil Adam, but seems like my boy doesn't fancy him for God-knows-what reason. (aku tengok budak tu macam biasa je.)

Yesterday we went to have a look at a daycare centre (in the neighbourhood). It's a nice place, and there are about 4 kids of about Lil Adam's age. They have learning activities, dan waktu petang masa budak2 lain solat, these toddlers can observe/follow if they wish.

Masalahnye...
1. Tempat tu takde jaga baby. So, if I were to have another baby (mana la tau kan?), that means I might have to send him/her to another place... atau tukar Lil Adam ke daycare lain pulak.

2. I have to send him at about 7.30am, dengan Lil Adam dah siap mandi. Woh! Kalo dulu, maybe senang... but lately he has started to sleep late and wake up late. (this morning, I waited for him until 8.30am... luckily I wasn't in a rush).

So, peeps...can u please help me to make a wise decision, whether or not to keep him there or to switch?
Pleassseeee... Thanks eh?

What if he lost his way?

If Lil Adam is found wandering in the neighbourhood, he might not be able to tell others his full name. He just know "Adam".

And if he were asked of Ayah's name or Mama's name, he won't be able to tell yet.
However, if he were brought strolling, looking for our house, he'd be able to identify our home.

Say, if I ask him next to me while I am driving "To the right or to the left?"

"This way... Ni.." (pointing to the direction)

Upon passing by the exact row, I usually ask him...

Me: Is this our house?

Him: No.

Me: Is it this one?

Him: No.
Him: Ni...(pointing to our home). Number shik!!! (read:six)

Alololo...pandainye anak Mama! (sape lagi nak puji anak sendiri kan?haha)

And when I open the door, I'd say "Assalamualaikummm..." (berlagu mcm budak2 bagi salam)

Lil Adam would reply "Shayammm..." (read:salaaammmm)

Hehehe.

Saving for DSLR

Masa musim-musim Affiq minta DrWan belikan DSLR aritu, slowly... rupanya MrHubby has started a liking towards the gadget as well. I say it's a liking, not a passion as he is yet to know the differences of Nikon & Canon...and yet to understand the functions & features.

We missed the opportunity to grab one at a good price, but that's alrite...there's plenty of time to look around.

Me? I might not be that excited, as I love to be in the pic. Being a photographer is not a priority, bcoz my preference is to be the model/subject of the photo. (Hmm..sudah terang lagi bersuluh Lil Adam tu narsis ikut perangai sapa. Hihihi)

So, as a support to MrHubby, at this point of time, this is all I could do...

So, nampakgayanya lepas nie kalo ada coins, kitorang dah tak bagi kat Lil Adam la for his Ben10/camel coinbox, sebab sibuk nak penuhkan tabung sendiri.

Or...errr... Adam nak menyumbang gak ke untuk Mama & Ayah beli DSLR tu?


Alaa... esok-esok kamera tu guna untuk amik gambar Adam gak kan? Hehehe >:)

Budak nyibuk main tabung mama & ayah

Nicknames

Almost 4 yrs ago... (before I got married to MrHubby, some time after his parents merisik)

Along (my sister): Wei, sapa nama mak mentua hang?
Me: Rauzah.
Along (my sister): Eh, bukan la.

Me: Aku tau la, (bakal) mak mentua aku.
Along (my sister): Aku tak pekak lagi la. Aritu dia introduce diri kat mak nama lain.

Me: Apa pulak?

Along (my sister): Ya... hang tak percaya, aku tanya mak balik.

Me: Tanya la (*cuak, mula ragu-ragu*)



So, I asked MrBoyfren. The answer? It was hilarious when I gotta know from MIL herself that she has various nicknames. Wahahaha... Glamer u!

Her real name is Rauzah, but most people know her by the name Jamaliah (hence they call her MokSu Jamal). At times, she got bored with that name, and used the name Kamariah. Pulak!!! Sukati dia jer nak tukar2 ye?
Lawak betul MIL ni...

Recently, I bumped into my hsemate masa zaman anak dara dulu, Kak Sharmiir.

The house was occupied by mostly IT seniors: Kak Ya, Kak Ayu (whom I always call Kaya & Kayu), Kak Sharmiir, Along and Kak Asni. Another one was K.Zah (electrical engineer yang tak tau tukar bulb lampu pun! wahahaha) and me, of the Microbiology background.

I introduced myself with the first two syllables of my name, but I don't know how... at one point they called me "Adik."

It was pretty awkward and I never addressed myself with that nick. Paling-paling pun, I'd use 'orang.'
e.g. "Orang ada kelas ni."

So, when I text/approach them at FB, I had to remind them that this is "Adik", instead of my name. Hehehe. Rasa macam not addressing myself pun ada.

Anyway, other nicks I rarely used are:

Belle: From the name Isabelle. I'm afraid kalo aku tak perasan dan lupa menyahut bila orang panggil. But, bcoz I have started to find it unique, okay... I love being called Belle from now on.

Clans call me Ija. I don't like it, but well...nothing can be done. So, I just live with it.

Another nick that will invite laughter from my siblings is "Dikja". Know why? Bcoz that's the so-called-mesra nick Mak would use on me that makes me had to swallow my vomit! (*khiaqqq...ptuih!!!*)


Anywayyyyyy... it still refers to yours truly, Isabelle ;)

Sex-up ur wardrobe

Yesterday's Earth Day. What did U do for the earth?

Me...ermm...

I fasted yesterday, hence no plastic bags, styrofoam, etc.
And at nite, I switch off the lights early. Hehehe. Tau la malam Jumaat kan? Sesekali guna alasan Earth Day, apa salahnya? Hihihi :P

Anyway, as we'll be having an Earth Day event today, I am wearing a kebaya (kena la nampak presentable kan?).

Okay, I believe most of us...pagi2 yang nak pegi keje, mesti hadap lemari tu dan berfikir Nak pakai baju apa ye arini?

dan yang best lagi...
Takde baju la... (walaupun baju dah takleh bernafas, sesak sangat dalam lemari).

So, today I'm gonna talk about sexing-up the wardrobe.

1. Get body conscious
Standard la kan? Form-fitting dress is sexy, esp. if u have a J.Lo's figure!
But for gangly, lanky ones like me (I was so leper and still am not that curvy until today)... the figure-hugging silhouette can also help add feminine curves.


Remember, it takes a very confident woman to highlight her curves, but confidence alone is uber-sexy!

2. Play peek-a-boo
Showing it all is not sexy. Channel your inner playful temptress and go for a hint of skin by trying see-through details like peek-a-boo lace macam Rachel McAdams ni.



3. Go for a flirty neckline
Not necessarily V-neck yang nampak segala lurah dendam tu, but strapless or spaghetti-strapped top is also flirty, esp. if u have slender arms and shoulders like makcik bee-stung lips nie.



4. Opt for sensual fabrics
Ahaaa..that is why nightgowns are made of slinky fabrics (e.g. silk, satin). 3 good things about the fabric is it grazes your curves in the most womanly way, inviting to the touch and imparts a soft glow all over for a radiant look.


However, visible panty lines are so not sexy. So make sure u slip in seamless undies and bra to avoid any VPL.


5. Hike the hemline
Show off those long legs in a leg-revealing bottom and great shoes. I might not be blessed with perfectly shaped pins, but I do wear mini cheerleaders skirts at home!


p/s: The shorter the hemline, the more cover-up you should aim for on top. Otherwise, you'll look like you're trying too hard!


6. Dare to plunge
I love halters! The sexy surprise is the bareback!


But hello, don't look so desperate. The right dose is just to focus on one asset to draw attention. Tengok Makcik Aussie nie...she plays down the bust and legs with a high neckline and long skirt for cover-up.

7. Wear red
A crimson hue has sexual power! No wonder it's common to see red dress, red heels, red lips and fingernails in the fashion industry! Cuba tengok dalam banyak2 red dresses ni, mana yang lawa?


Embrace your femme fatale side in a little red dress (a la Christina Ricci) but I have always wanted a scarlet handbag. (MrHubby, sila take note.Hehe)




p/s: Tips are to be practised depan laki sendiri jer.

1 is not enough

One day, as I fetched Lil Adam after work...

As he got into the car, he saw...



Alamak, terputus pulak video nih.




Okay...baca doa. Eh, nape sapu muka macam tu?
Lawak la Adam nie.


I left him in the car to buy some groceries. And as I got into the car again...

Ooo... geng dengan Mama la nie. Satu mana cukup kan?

Tok Wan

The last time I went back to Penang was...ermm..raya haji. Dah dekat setengah tahun la jugak. If it takes too long, I'm afraid Lil Adam's clans might be strangers to him.

I realize Lil Adam now knows who's who. Amongst the ones he know are

• Pasha, Aunty, Uncle
• Uncle (Drwan)
• Maklom (actually MakLong, my sister)
• Makshu (Ina)
• Makcik (kadang2 dia panggil Yone jer! haha)
• kakak (anak Along)
• Iman (anak Acik)

and I dont know how... when I showed him this pix I doodled in my hp
he says..."Tok Wannn..." (dengan bunyi sengau Wan = 'One'). Hehehe.

And if he saw this book of MrHubby's...

To him, it's also "TokWannnn...."

Kemain hebat ko portray imej TokWan ye, Adam?

I'm lucky that my parents never urged us to go back to hometown, but I am finding a good time for that very soon. Maybe after the exam ends this May.

p/s: Abah tak pakai serban pun. Kadang2 je rasanya, kalo pi masjid.
p/s/s: I am not related to Dato' Dr Haron Din. I wish...

Mood cuti

Who doesn't need a getaway?
Kalo baru balik dari cuti pun, we still feel like "Bestnya kalo boleh terus bercuti..."
Kan? Kan?

This time, I was tagged by Salzahari (again!). Mentang-mentang la I rajin buat tag.Haha. Tapi I tak kisah pun...

Okay, let's talk about vacation...

If it is based on achievable & realistic factor, it would be..
1.Perhentian & Redang (snorkeling is heaven!)
2.Langkawi (ni MrHubby yang ketaq nak pi)
3.Tioman (nama je jetinya dekat dengan MrHubby's hometown, tapi haram tak pernah jejak.)

If i don't have to endure the hassle of getting a visa in short notice, I would want to be at
1. Paris (feeling jiwang la ni)
2. Korea (reunion dengan Kelly & Wayne)
3.Brisbane (balik kampung...wowowo..balik kampung!!!)


If I am filthy rich I would have boarded the first flight to
1. Mekah (dah kata filthy rich kan? siap ulang-alik tiap hari lagi)
2. Maldives, Mauritius (what else if it is not bcoz of the blue ocean)
3. Switzerland (apa ke hey yang aku nak ke sana pun tak tau la)

Hmmm... bila la aku nak tido dan tiba-tiba aku tersedar, aku sedang berbaring dia atas duit ye?

Masa tu, tak heran la kena apply cuti ke hapa ke.... :P

So, now I'm tagging.............
1. Hanz
2. Abu Zuhair
3. ChekPah

Yang lain tu, sila le buat kalo rajin. Kita berangan sama-sama...

Pi Mekah 7kali or balik hari?

Recently I went to the Bangi Kopitiam for fast-breaking. It has just been opened in the neighbourhood (I have once gone to the branch in Sect.7).

After a simple meal (rice & chicken chop), MrHubby went to the counter to pay. Me, belek-belek the receipt and nak terkuar bijik mata aku dari soketnye....

Do u see clearly ... what is that 80cents for?

Ais kosong.

Fine..I know the ambience was great, plus the sewing machine table (sambil makan, kaki boleh godek-godek macam nak menjahit). Tapi takkan la korang nak cover balik bajet tu semua dalam bulan pertama je?

Ni musti nak kaya cepat. Set-set nak pi Mekah balik hari. Huh!

Havoc!

Wahh..title x boleh blah!!!

Ni citer masa pi ziarah Yaya cum 1st date dengan Fizamior last Sunday. Mula-mula sampai tu... standard la kan....

Hubbies belek newspapers (warm up dulu), whilst Yaya's Edex bz in the kitchen (giler rajin masak Abg Am nie!).

Me, sembang-sembang dengan Yaya (mind u, twas my 3rd time meeting her after MSK gath & Qarissa's bday) macam ye-ye-o je kenal lama. Hahaha...
We cliqued so well that there's no gap at all (korang rasa macam tu gak ke, Fizamior & Yaya?)


Sembang pasal controversial entries in our blogs (e.g. maid Yaya lari, my copycat/imitator, etc.)
Gambar masa borak sakan kena curi daripada Yaya, bcoz we were so bz menjoyahkan diri...x hengat dah kamera.

Akmal, a.k.a Kamal (as his big bro addresses him)

Ko ingat adik ko Kamal Hassan ke, Adam?

Fizamior wasn't there yet as she was enjoying her massage with the confinement lady. But once she came outta the room "Oiii, babe!!!!"

Wahahaha..kecoh!!!

Nie masa Fizamior dgn semangatnye menepuk bontot Mia supaya tido balik, tapi mata buntang jer tu...


Lil Adam lak buat wheelie masa naik moto dgn Adam... sekali tu terlentang sorang2, sekali lagi siap tenyeh Mia lagi. Adoiyaiii..kang kau kena kawen dengan Mia untuk bayar pampasan kang!!!


Aku geram betul tengok si Adam ni. Cheeky! Aunty nak bantal busuk tu, boleh?

Yaya and her lil Akmal



Us with our lil darlings (I was holding Mia, feeling gatal nak babygirl)



Hehe..bersungguh-sungguh photographer dengan kuda-kudanye :P

Apapun, I had a great time. I hope, they too (kang aku pulak syok sendiri) :P
