Dear Adam Danish...

My dear son, Adam Danish...
looking back at all your photos brought back so much wonderful memories of the three of us together. The other one being your daddy, of course... :)
Over the past 10 months, I have had numerous headaches, aching back pains and aches everywhere, going up and down, waking up in the middle of the nite only to find you pressed firmly against my body (coz u are such a lasak sleeper) and haven't been able to wake up late.
You pushed me to my every limit, giving me the strength i never knew i had within. I've always been someone to love little ones, but with you, I discovered something i never imagined possible... that you could love someone else more than you love yourself.
Just so you know, you have an extremely sporting and wonderful Daddy. Without him, I'm sure i would've fallen flat on my back. And without him as well, we both know that the house would be dull. :)
At one week old, you were so tiny i was afraid that i might break you.
At one month old, you were big enough to fit into the first piece of cloth we ever bought for you, the ralph lauren jumper.
At two months old, we set fort in Bukit Bandaraya Shah Alam.
At three months old, you had your first fever, which kept me awake... and on the phone 24/7.
At four months, we went holidaying Down Under.
At five months, you started rolling over!!!
At half a year, we had a double celebration, with a mini cake at atok and wan's and a doughnut cake at grandpapa and grandmama's.
At seven months, we had to send you to Taska... :(
At eight months, your dad contracted the Influenza A virus and had to be quarantined from you for 5 days!
At nine months, you were busy moving like a soldier surrounding the house.
At ten months, you prolly have bruises from going up and down and knocking every single thing that comes into your way.
months and months to come after that, i can only imagine how you can surprise me.
Muhammad Adam Danish.
=)
i love that no matter how imperfect i am as a human being, i'll always be a mummy to you.
most importantly, i love you.

more money = more problems

my babe and i was talking in the middle of our break from work and we discussed how when you have more money, more problems were sure to come soon after. ie. i got my kutu money and my teeth needed some maintenance done. and a friend of mine got her bonus and her a/c kaputted on her. why is it that the universe won't allow us to be wealthy for a long period of time? maybe we don't deserve it yet. maybe the universe knows that we will spend every extra cent on something we have a lot of like shoes... or clothes... and end up regretting soon after we left the shop.

i finally went to the dentist alone yesterday. a LOT of emotion came over me. and it didn't help that i had to wait for another 45 minutes before i was called in. but it was all over in 10 minutes and i'm soooooooooooo glad that i survived it!

im sure a lot of friends can relate to this when i say i hate driving nowadays. everyone is in a hurry to get to somewhere. driving on the left lane when he wants turn right. cutting queues. driving slow on a fast lane. turning without a signal! that is my pet peeve. although i'm prolly so used to it that i may be guilty of this too... sometimes... ;)

on a more serious note, i almost had a heart attack when i lost my dad's personal pendrive this morning. it took almost the whole office running around outside the office, in the rain, trying to find the pendrive. after almost an hour of searching, we finally found it in the drain with the help of Kak Ita's torchlight. haih... imagine the catastrophy that could have happened if we didn't find the pendrive. thanks everyone who helped!!! i owe u guys!

finally, im rested n ready for my holiday in the east coast. balik kampunggggggggggggggggggggggggg.... wooo oooo ooooo balik kampungggggggggggggg.... hehehe... my sotong goreng... my running away from katak. stay tune for stories of city girl going into the kampung!

toodles.

i want to burn off some of my kutu money at kassa searching for something to wear for the wedding this saturday... =)

raya + weddings + fatness + brokeness + pictures + going aways + whatever else

it's been a while since i posted... anything.
anyway, to me loyal 2/3 readers, selamat hari raya! maaf zahir & batin!
adam had his first Syawal with matching bajus and everything...
and 6 pairs of baju raya thanks to Wan & Grandmama
oh n lots and lots of duit raya (don't worry, it's all safe in the bank... in HIS bank!)
oh feast ur eyes on my little one...

Adam Danish enjoying the spotlight

Oh my sister (the infamous Auntie Palin) went to do her masters on the first week of Syawal. She's currently with mummy having good food at M&S in the UK. Ahhh... so jealous! InsyaAllah if the ASB divident is good and Adam walks fast, we will be making our way there in 2010. *wink wink*

Other than that, abah had his 52nd birthday last monday on the 5th of October. i can tell you after the meals that we had on that day, i swear we prolly gained like 3kg on that day itself. breakfast of roti pisang (my own fault), a very elaborate lunch at Siriwan Thai and a heavy hi-tea of pizza hut (stuffed crust and all) and the very very very scrumptous New York Cheesecake from Secret Recipe. and Sari Ratu for dinner. I love food... but not all good food in all day. my body CAN NOT get used to this!

This weekend im heading to Terengganu again for a wedding full of crisis. Tok Kie's eldest cucu from his second marriage. a girl marrying a... controversial man that she has known no longer than one year. scary isn't it. i think everyone is excited to see how the wedding pans out... me too, if not i wouldn't be so eager to drive for 5 hours for a weekend. and also... the sotong goreng. one of the reasons why we're going there again... coz we missed the sotong goreng during raya time.

Oh and Adam has learn the art of sitting... and climbing. it's a bit tiring to take care of him now since he climbs everything he can... including yours truly. it's a joy to watch surely... and thank God for the walker coz if it isnt' for the walker, i wouldn't be able to do anything at all. :).

i'm heading off to subang parade in an hour to buy adam's trolley cum walker cum toy since i have some extra cash thanks to the kutu... :)

see yah!
