.BabyEmir turned Big 1!.

Last Friday, i was pretty sure that lil Koala has mastered the whole Birthday song. Hahaha.. yeah, we celebrated our lil baby by singing thw Birthday song over n over again the entire day and tried teaching him to blow out the candle! hahaha.. but all he did was just stood still looking at our weird faces with pouty lips on and air coming out between the lips. * Grown ups r just complicated* i bet that was wat goin thru his mind! hahahaha..

But he was happy alright each time we sang the Bday song.. showing off his 6 big teeths! Hehehe..

What diz lil koala of mine has achieved at age 12m.o..


- YEs, he can stand and can walk a bit.. few days before he turned 1. but it seems that he walks only on every other day.. Well, lets give him few more days.. At least i have more time to warm up before i start throwing my high heels in the closet n put my running shoe on, chasing that lil boy around the house / mall.


- He likes to copycat ppl a LOT! Very funny especially when he copies me sneezing.


- He understood few words but most of them his toys. He'll go running crawling for his Bear, Mickey, Moo, Ball, Vroom-Vroom when we mention it to him. When we say no, he'll stop and look at us and give us that cute lil smile hoping that we wud say its OK.

- Fav vocab is: "Tak" "Jap" Vroom-vroom" "CAK" "Pah" "Up"

- He knows exactly when ppl r getting ready to go out! He'll crawl to the door and try to reavch the door knob. Also, he knows keys are for holes! hahaha..

- He's great at using his point finger at almost everything!! Holding his finger foods, pressing all the buttons on his toys, pointing..

- He's LOVES and goes crazy over sterring car, balls and dogs and laptops and Little Einstein and balloons.

- He's now 100% on FM. The whole process of weaning him off was mentally, emotionally and physically tiring and no fun. But coz of the frequent travelling and BabyEmir was the type that knows d difference btwn EBM and FM, left us with no choice. He rather sleep with n empty stomach than to drink FM coz he knows the next feeding or later at night he'll get his BM. Honestly, i miss BF him and wud just want to give him but then i'll messed up the entire process.

Oh, that also explains the yoyo weight Mommy's facing! Adoi.... confuse Mommy kjap!! Sekejap pkai jeans tak muat.. sekejap pkai mcm org takde bontot! adoi... tak best..tak best...


- He still wakes up twice at night for his milk session normally around 3 and 6 am. But now im trying to ignore his request at 3. How? Well, normally when he starts whining for milk, i'll pick him up from his babycot and i'll Daddy makes his milk and let him drink and sleep on our bed. Once his in LalaLand then only we put him back to his cot. But what i do now, i take him and let him sleep on our bed and hope he forgets bout the milk. Sometimes he does.. so im save!! Muahaha.. but if he really wants the milk badly and continues whining, i'll just make one for him. So yeah.. ikut luck je!


- Getting him to eat and finish up his meal is like going to war! He'll eat half way and then start to play and run around. End up either the floor or Mommy will be all covered with his food. He also has this 'manja' moment when he demands to seat on Mommy's lap and being fed by no one else but Mommy.

- He's also the 'lasak' type. He has this very hard head which he likes to head banging people very much. Sometimes sakit OK when he bangs his head onto our face or mouth or chest, but dia rilek selambe dok jek. He only cries if the pain is really unbearable to handle. But not with DocAzizi, a simple touch, you can hear him thousand miles away from the clinic.

- He loves to play at the playground. Just LOVES the slide and will make his way down ALL BY HIMSELF!!

To BabyEmir,

We Love you with all our heart! You bring laughter to each one of us and surprise us every single day without fail. Even with a simple word or sound that comes from your cute mouth or even by knocking your Mommy's head with a spoon you now can hold very well in those cute lil fingers of yours.

Happy 1 Year old sayang!

MA'AL HIJRAH 1430

To all Muslimin and Muslimat,


Wishing you a wonderful and better year ahead, Insya-Allah.




May God Bless us all.


.Amin.


Love, Emir-MommyDaddy-

.Hot Spring Sg Klah.


I never knew the existence of such a lovely and peaceful place just near by where we lived. Probably i might never know about this wonderful Hot Spring Sg Klah which is in Sungkai Perak, 1 1/2 hrs drive from KL if it wasnt Opah who asked us if we wanna join her dept's jln2 trip.



.Trees.
Too bad Mr.daddy cudnt join. I was so amazed by the spectacular and breathtaking view of our beautiful nature here in Malaysia. Oh, and the weather was just perfect!!

.The Mountain Spring Pool & The HotSpring Pool. Awesome.

This HotSpring had several places for different things that you can do. The Mountain Spring Pool was so refreshing and BabyEMir just love to splish and splash there the most!


After having lunch, we went to where the hot springs are.. There was this spot were the water was boiling hot up till 90-100 celcius, and yes!! We can even boiled eggs there!! Coolness!

.Yup, we did boiled some eggs!!. You can either bring your own or buy there.

. at The cafe where the pond next to it was full of fishesssssss.

.Having his Moment.

.Early Birthday Gift.

It was actually scheduled on the day diz Lil Koala turned 1 a.k.a. One! Hehehe.. But Mommy decided to go today, coz he was starting to show signs of coughing.. Plus, wasnt sure he'll catch a fever aftr the injection coz people say its a strong dose n baby tend to get fever on their 1st year jab.

So, as usual.. He'll be all loud, hyper and bubbly as ever watching lil kids running around and walking around those colorful red-orangish-mustardish sofa in the middle of the hall while waiting for our turn to be called.. and not to mention he was also trying to chase those cute girls since he now know the use of his two legs. But Mommy la the victim.. coz he cant walk alll the way.. so sumetimes when he fells that the way his walking is not making justice to him and only making him look like a cartoon 'jln terkedek and kengkang kengkang' he'll just start to bend down and crawl.. which is exactly where Mommy comes in 'terkejar2' to grab him before he sparkle cleans the entire floor with his white pants and just have to hold his hand and give him support to walk.. no no no... *penat*

When it was time, we went in and that bubbly and happy face just turned to panic and not happy look immediately he saw that so-familiar face. Yes, he has this 'thing' with DocAzizi. Each time he sees him he knows.. this man always give him horrible shots on either his legs or arm.. So he'll go crazy the minute DocAzizi touches him.. Hahaha.. yes, just a simple touch he'll cry and struggle to run away as if he's in great pain! *Habis hilang macho*

Looking at his condition DocAzizi said its OK to give an advance Bday present!! And Im OK with that. So the Drama begins AGAIN d minute DocAzizi hands was holding his arm firmly. But the cry immediately stop after DocAzizi let go and he was all free from DocAzizi.. Hehehehe.. *Funny la Emir nie*

.Penat after all those act of crying and the struggle to get away from the Doc.

.OpahJay's Surprise.

.Lil Koala, amazed with all the stones and the clear blue water.

It was OpahJay's Bday and we decided to give her a treat on her Bday.. Other than making sure the house on that day was sparkling clean.. :P


Surprising her is forever a failure for us. She would always have a sniff of our plan and by d time, she'll find out about everything.


So this year, we had it over the YM among Emir's Aunts and Uncle.. and It was TOP SECRET till the day itself. We din even told Atuk the total plan and we only let him incharged with Bday dinner coz he'll always be the spoiler.. :P


So everything was planned till that day.. and only that day we told Atok the real deal which was 1hr before her surprise. So off we went bringing OpahJay to the place.. and while we were parking our car, OpahJay said, "Spa tu kat mana?" and we were like..."??????????????" OpahJay realize she wasnt suppose to ask d question and she said again,, "Oh, Atok told me to have fun at the spa tadi." Us..??? We were screaming our lungs out in our heart of coz.. ish.. !! Thanks Atuk! U know thats why we love you!

We actually never been to this spa at Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa and was only recommended by a fren.. and we have nooooo idea how isolated Mandara Spa was from the main building of the hotel.. by d time we reach there.. we felt like we were in the middle of a forest in Bali.. Hahahaha.. yeah!! Enjoy d pics!!

.The Forever Long Walk to the Spa.





.D Lil Koala felt asleep on the way. Weird huh? :p



.Almost there.


.Almost, I mean it!.



.Finally after 10mins walk, we're in the cool air-conditioned Spa place. Fiiuuhhh. Plus we were served with cold fresh towels and hot tea. Refreshing..

.D choice of Scrub.

It was nice just that we cudnt stand the long long walk.. Plus we had to drag the stroller up and down the stairs..


.The STAIRS!! Dont u just LoVE it!!.
*Planning to go to this spa in Glenmarie.. not sure where..U guys no where? a fren is bringing us.. But honestly.. no spa can beat spas in Jakarta.. Heaven!!

.D Palace.

It was one of those weekend that after i manage to convince MrDaddy many-many times.. Finally, we manage to reach there.. Mommy in fact, first time in life.. at the age of twenTEENfive, step foot there and b proud standing in front of the main gate of our National Palace..! So babyEmir, You are waaaaaaayy to lucky to even be here at an early age.. Hahahaha..

.The 2 Tigers.



.A Sneak Peak of the Driveway.

.The Palace.

.We tried all we can to even tickle and made funny faces to d guy.. He's REALLy good at his job!.

Anyway.. we took tonessssss of pic! I was forever impressed with those Mounted Royal Guards in their smart full uniform and those well trained horsies... Yes, im easily impressed with trained animals as simple as asking a bird to fly from one end to another end kind of trick.

.Guys, pls meet Henry and Joe.
Hhhmmm.. i wonder how they manage to train those horse to stay still for hoursss and b calm under the hot weather with ppl passing by taking pix, making funny poses, being awfully noisy and not to mention who some just cant keep their hands off from touching them. Ooo.. and the sounds of the noisy traffic and forever madness wheater..??? Take bout pressure...Impressiveeeeeeee...

Hhmm.. but does those horsies ever wonder their purpose of life? To be standing there still for hrs and doing nothing? Their suppose to be roaming around and b free.. Kesian la plak.. Takpe, berkorban utk negara..

.Us at the Main National Palace Gate.

Anyways....talk bout being lucky!! All the sudden we saw these 3 royal guards all macho in their awesome red uniform on horses coming by... and guess what? We were just on time to see the Changing of the Guard Ceremony. It was done all with commands and again.. i was all jakun..!

.The Macho Royal Guard.



.Us 'kepoching' while they we're busy doing their job.


Hehehe.. we had fun and babyEmir had his few moments of 10seconds impressing MommyDaddy by standing all by himself.. Awww.. Sayang.. U really made us proud.. u just cant let those horsies steal your limelight from Mommy's life even for a second huh..?? *Hugsss*

.He's now mastering the art of standing up n walking.


.No longer an Addict.



All this while Im an Addict. It was one of my usual stops to the Duty Free store at the airport. (during my flight back to home sweet home frm Jakarta) My addiction stock was running low so just had to grab one since it was few bucks cheaper + HSBC 10% (yes.. thanks to Year-End Sale) Wwweee!!!..

.Dior Addict Shine.


Then saw this and just loveeee the smell.. Im so head over heels with this one right now.. cant stop myself puffing myself with Cherie.

.Miss Dior Cherie Bloooming Bouquet.


Hhhhmmmm... love the smell.. but still cant beat BabyEmir's stinky poop nice and addicitive smell of his soft skin.. Arent babies skin soo wangi and makes u just want to bite them??!! *NNnggaaap!!*


.What theme should it Be?.


I cant believe that its almost a year and i only have 2weeks+ to make this happen and prepare everything..

we probably gona throw the party 1 day earlier since the exact date falls on a friday and i bet almost everyone have the weekends booked for long holidays with their loved ones.

anyway, m still stuck on what theme to choose for the party.. i do have a few but any new ideas are most welcome.. just throw them in!!

Ohhh.. did i mention wat party..?? hehehe.. its for babyEmir 1 year old party. planning to have a simple one.

so themes that i had in mind..

- Prince / Knights & Princess ( need to build a castle play land - too much work and $$ but fun)
- Little Eisntein ( need to build the rocket/spaceship or sumthing like a control room aka playland - im soo not an engineer..how to build one??)
- Super Hero ( can probably blow up some monster Qso the kids can go n wrestle with them - hhmm.. too violent i think.. or good for their muscle to think positively)
- Hawaian / Beach Theme ( need to find a swimming pool. for kids only - definitely gona b a wet party!! sounds fun)
- Any other ideas???

Hhhmm.. which one.. which one..??
Ohh.. .. wat cake shud i 'make' that is suitable for babies..?? If you guys happen to know anyone, care to share me their contact? Thanks!!!

Actually he was in Jakarta a ouple of days ago but we didnt had the chance to meet up.
So last Monday we met, together with my fren and had dinner at the Kafe Betawi. The food was amazingly awesome..! Im starting to get use to local food and so does my tummy. Must admit that they have variety of yummylicious Indonesian cuisine and im actually not the foodlover type. So, yeah.. a lot of nice food here for u guys to come over and try. And if any of you planning to come here, don hesitate to ask me places to eat or shop!!.. (Ohh.. i just cant get over with the sale madness over here!! Just horrifying-ly tempting -if there is such word.. well, who cares!)Sorry, Mr.Daddy but i just cant resist..So, already bought myself few stuff and oso for others.. hehehe!! Hhmm... planning to go for a final round of shopping b4 i go back home this Saturday.. =D Hihihi..

Back to the story... After dinner, the 3 of us went for a round of karaoke session at XKTV in Senayan City Mall ( Sis.. don b jeles ya.. ). Had total fun plus the total bill was sooo murah bangat!!

As for today, planning to meet up again for '
Totok' session after i finish work late at night. But not sure he wants to join though.. Hahahaha..

OK guys, back to work!

.The Date.

Thank you God for giving the brains to those whoever came out with the idea of inventing the internet, lappies, webcams, messenger, and the list go on and on...
Infrastructure over here is not as great as it is in KL. So, last night manage to get my Lil Koala on YM and we chat over the mic! I bet who ever passed by my room wud definitely think Im crazy. Hahaha.. well... i think i did talk a bit loud coz of the excitement. Who wouldnt..?

.One Lil Koala who was soo curious to hear Mommy's voice over the lappie.

Align Center

.Thinking hard how on earth did Mommy turned into a Lappie.

.Hmmm the lappie can actually sing and sound soo like Mommy!.

.My lil boy looks soo big now.
After a while then only he started to get use to it and started to groove and clap his hand when i sang his favourite song.. Was soo cute! Wish i was THERE THERE and can kiss him and hug him tightly and bite those chubby lil cheek of his..! But for now, Daddy does that on my behalf ..but not the biting part.
Cant wait to b back home with my loved ones.. Another 3 days to go!

p/s: wishing the day pass by quickly
