Baby/ Rumah/ Ean Stuff

2009-11-06T20:14:00.003+08:00

I'm now in my last trimester and usually at this stage most of the mommy to be has already packed the hospital bag. Me on the other hand, has not done any packing and still contemplated on certain things like.. confinement set, stroller (ni tak muat masuk bag), and few little things. Setakat diapers, lampin tu semua bleh beli masa bersalin nanti..

Major desicion has been made that I will deliver my baby here in Gleneagles KL. Ean was delivered 4 years ago in Mahkota Medical in Melaka eventho my monthly check-up was done here in KL. I guess senangla semua in KL and will be back to Melaka for confinement, but we have to come back to KL by early Jan 2010 since Ean will start schooling next year in new school at Kota Damansara. Itu pun belum settlekan lagi. Next week I will scout around the area. People said Kinderland is good. Will check on that. Too many things to do but too little time. Our new place pun belum ready and I cant do any packing since Ean is allergic to habuk and ada underlying asthma. Confinement lady pun sama. Maybe my urut2 thingy will be half here half kat Melaka. Pening kepala!

So far these are the things that I have settled :
1) Hospital
2) Baby clothes incl mitten, booties, socks, hat
3) Stemlife (didn't managed to get Ean one sebab tu time baru nak blajar hidup.. hehe)
4) Blanket
5) Wardrobe and chest drawer for Ean & baby
6) Cot
7) Tempat mandi, toiletries baby etc

Banyak yang ada dari zaman Ean pakai je balik. Taknak membazir la sebab buat renovation rumah je dah kena berapa.. Plus, barang2 tu semua elok lagi (walaupun tangan mak dia gatal je nak click purchase items masa online shoppingkan???)

That's it! Hope I can manage all this. Gtg now.. need to check what other kindie they have in Kota Damansara other than Kinderland.. tata

Ean & H1n1

2009-11-04T19:46:00.011+08:00

This happen in August. But since I feel bad for not updating any stories about Ean, well.. here it goes.

I was at the airport after coming back from our hari raya shopping cum baby shopping in Jakarta & Bandung. Sampai KLIA, Boy my brother, Ean and the previous maid dah ada kat arrival hall. Once pegang je Ean, I rasa temperature dia panas semacam. Took out his termometer (a must have even tho travel), and true enough, his temperature dah sampai 39C.

Boy drove like mad, balik rumah, mandikan Ean (coz dah tak dan nak sponge2), masuk ubat bontot and check again his temperature. Still high, we decided to take him to Gleneagles.. takde maknanya nak tunggu2. It was Sunday evening so straight we went to Emergency. Bayangkan all the waiting chairs full with sick people. We had to wear mask as protection coz during that time H1n1 memang tengah famous. Waited for 1 hour before the call us and Ean did his throat swap. Doctor told me that the will do the Influenza test there and within 1 hr they will call us. Masa ni, hubby took him out and they went to Dome for tea while mummy n my sis had to wait for them to call us and get the result. Lapar punya pasal, I went to see the doctor and told her to call me on my mobile if anything.

Baru je nak duduk kat Dome, the doctor called me and told me that Ean is positive with Influenza A. H1n1 is not confirm yet coz they still ned to take the swab and sent that to IMR and the result will be out only in 48-72 hours. We immediately carried Ean to Emergency and see the doctor. She told me all the rooms in 6th floor (where all the positive H1n1 or Influenza A patience was admitted) penuh. I told her I still want my son to be treated there since all my son's record ada kat situ. Even if only suite is the only room that available, I dont care. At that time, I dont really care about anything except that Ean start his treatment asap. Nak dijadikan cerita, kebetulan I saw my son's paed, Dr Patrick walk into the emergency area. He saw us and terus he checked on Ean. I feel like hugging him there ok??? Tuhan nak tolong kot. He put the needle thingy for drip and I settlekan the hospital deposit. Doctor told me 1 thing.. mummy cannot kiss, come or take care of Ean, since mummy is pregnant. I was so sad sebab dah la 1 week kat Indo tak jumpa anak, balik2 anak sakit, mummy xleh jaga. Stress ok!

I was lucky that my hubby memang hands on dalam semua hal. We are lucky too that we dont work for people coz both of us buat business sendiri. Shuk had to take leave and take care of Ean. Even visitor are not allowed to come and visit coz that ward is a quarantine ward. Mummy kissed Ean on his forehead. hugged daddy while trying not to cry and balik. We packed Ean's baju, toys, segala macamlah.. sebab i know that they'll need at least 7 days to make sure the antibiotic and ubat2 to work.

Everyday Ean and daddy will call me via 3G to update. Everyday jugaklah doctor will remind daddy that mummy cannot come coz mummy is pregnant. Most of the time when hubby called and update on his situation, I will try very2 hard not to cry. Paham2 jelah, orang mengandung ni memang selalu sensitif... One day Ean called me... sedih je bunyi dia tau.. why mummy tak datang?? Mummy datangla sini teman saya.... terus mak dia melalak depan telefon, depan semua orang kat umah. I saw hubby cried too... sedihnya.. selalu bila anak sakit, i'll be the one yang akan teman, spongekan badan, tidurkan Ean and of coz I wont sleep that night coz takut terlena. But to be away from him, not kissing him, hug him.. is really too much. Seriously if without my husband and my adik beradik.. I dont think I can face this. Teringatkan baby dalam perut lagi.. memang challenging la.

Alhamdulillah, after 3 days, Ean showed a very good response towards all the medicine. He was admitted on Sunday and discharge on Friday, I had to leave the house coz this virus is still contagious plus.. as a precaution for me. Stayed 1 night at my aunty's place and on Saturday my sis & I checked in hotel till Monday..

He is healthy and back to normal after 1 week. Eversince that, we always take extra precaution macam.. use hand sanitizer all the time, dettol spray in the car, rooms, segala2 la.. Call me over doing it but if dah kena dekat family kita, barulah kita tahu macamana...

Missing

2009-10-18T23:48:00.002+08:00

Hi!

Have been missing from blogging for quite sometimes. I guess busy workload, as a mom, wife, business partner, a friend has taken a toll on me.

Too tired to update, upload photos and plus.. I'm currently pregnant with the 2nd one and seriously mood has been swing upside down. On the other hand, we are grateful and blessed with our 2nd one. Alhamdulillah...

Just got our replacement maid after 2 times been cheated by the maid (not the agent) and hopefully with all the new maid, workload would be better. I really hope that I can continue blogging and let it be my journal or diary on my pregnancy.. Hhmm.. let see if I can fulfill that.. hehe

That's it... more coming. I promised :)

Ean @ School

2009-01-18T15:51:00.001+08:00

This is my first entry in 2009... not bad.. tak la lambat sangat. hehehe

Ean finally went to school.. I enrolled him at CEC Wangsa Melawati sebab dekat dengan rumah. At first we wanted to wait until we move to K. D'sara but looking at the situation now, we probably just gonna rent the apartment and continue looking for our dream house. So in the mean time, we will be staying at our current house. Insyaallah if murah rezeki, we want to buy our dream house in Desa Park City.. insyaallah..

Ok, Ean was born in October 2005 and if ikut umur, dia baru 3tahun 3 bulan but... if ikut Malaysia academic year, he dah 4 years old so nak tak nak, I have to send him to school. I was lucky coz my sister is a teacher in children's house and masa tak ke sekolah pun, we taught him ABC-123-Alif-Ba-Ta, flash cards and such.. Alhamdulillah.. he don't have problem recognising alphabets and numbers..

But.. his only problem is too attached to mummy.. terlalu2 sangat. Dia tak reti nak campur orang sangat, insecure pun ya gak but i think tu biasa sebab baru lagi.. Sampai sekolah tak nangis but balik yang dia menangis.. kaw2 ok... marah sangat coz mummy dia tinggalkan dia kat school.. Kesian k.. mak dia tengok dia nangis cam tu kan.. mak dia pun nak nangis.. heeegeh.. but selalunya after school, we will stop by at mana2 mini market and upah dia sweets ke, chocolate ke, grapes ke.. terpaksa beli jiwa :)

This is his school.. besarla but too many kids, playground tak best except ada pool la :)

His class.. masa ni orientation day and we came to do our trial. Dia tak pakai school uniform pun :)

Makan bekal mummy pack kan... school kasik biskut je.. eheh

Uniform for 1 week terus.. ye.. mak dia bukan rajin :D

Time ni baru balik..

Dah sampai rumah.. kat tangan dia ada Kinder Joy.. dia cukai mak dia kat Hero

Stylo itu penting.. Ikut daddy dia pakai sunglass :)

That's it for now.. I'll try to update whenever ada masa k?

What happen?

2008-12-23T14:08:00.005+08:00

I was back on my blogging mood and one shocking news came... my dad was admitted to due to stroke attack. This is his 3rd stroke attack and the condition became worst..

Here, I'm blogging in Melaka and alhamdulillah, abah was discharged after 1 week staying in the hospital.. All of us had to take turn to take care of abah.. mostly mama and Gja will teman abah at night and us yang lain, rotate..

All my plans went haywire. We supposed to go for our short break (me and my small family) but since abah dah sakit,.. takkan nak gi holiday pulak. Kejam giler .. so here, in Melaka, I had to imagine that we are now on a break... stress ok..

Luckily I work on my own now and thanks to the internet, everything can be settled online.. lega!

We're going back to KL this weekend. Shuk will come back on Friday. Can't wait!

I want to shop.. period.

Atuk

2008-12-05T21:47:00.008+08:00

Hmm.. I know I didn't blog much in November. It turned out that so many things happen last month...

One of it is my atuk passed away... He quietly passed away on the 6th November 2008 at my aunty's house. Kebetulan mama and my aunty, Mak Teh was on their way to KL from Melaka and somewhere in Alor Gajah, they received a phone call from my other aunty, Mak Chik and told them that atuk tengah nazak.. All happen so sudden...

At the same time, my sis called me and told me that atuk passed away. Mama cried, mak teh was screaming crying in the car while driving. Mama dah la gerak berdua dengan Mak Teh coz they just want to come and visit for 1 day... mana nak sangka ajal atuk dah sampai kan??? Abah, my dad was at home. He can't drive because of the stroke.. Nasib baik my Pak Su who based in Kota Bharu ada training in Melaka too. He drove my dad's car together with my elder sis, Along..

Back in KL, all of us, packed our stuff and gerak ke rumah Mak Chik in Jalan Duta. We are among the earliest to arrive. Salam everyone and terus baca surah Yassin for atuk..

Atuk meninggal petang and to wait for everyone to arrive from all over Malaysia, means that kebumi kena buat the next day. My dad arrived after Maghrib and when I looked up at him, I saw him crying. Sedih giler. Dah la muka abah jatuh sebelah because of stroke,.. aku menangis tengok. I can't imagine if one day abah or mama pulak yang tinggalkan kami.. entah macamana kami nanti..

Atuk selamat dikebumikan di Seremban selepas solat Jumaat pada 7hb November 2009. Semoga dia di cucuri rahmat dan di tempatkan di kalangan orang-orang yang beriman..

Time nilah jubah and tudung2 yang mama beli masa haji become handy..

After semua dah selesai, kami gerak balik ke KL...

Amin...

Malaysia International Fashion Week by MIFA!

2008-12-05T17:54:00.007+08:00

I went to the Fashion Week last Saturday. We went to see the fashion show by Iszal of Citra and Calvin Thoo... My friend, Tina was supposed to join us but her relative datang from Singapore so there's only Nina, Amy and myself.

Show started at 1pm and as usual, the 'VIP' kononnya always late. We reached The Garden at 1.15pm.. even the Permaisuri Agong reached earlier.. but what to do.. vallet parking was full for both malls - Mid Valley and Garden. Don't talk about the normal parking.. semua entrance full. Seriously.. Mid Valley has turned into M.A.D V.A.L..L.E.Y.. I was there on Friday and same thing. Dah la jammed.. vallet parking was full too... Maybe because of the X'mas sale and school holiday la kot?

Our seats was supposed to be at the front row but sebab Permaisuri Agong dah sampai, takkan nak selit2 plak kan.. nak kena sembah duli lagi.. so cut the crap, we sat opposite her but kena naik few rows ke atas.. heheh.. this time around, we want to look at the boobs not the underwear, that's what Nina said. Hiks!

My invitation card

I like Iszal's creation. For both my engagement and wedding attire, memang tempah dengan dia. He turned my baju kawin kaler sami orange tu to something beautiful :D.. plus dia punya jahit labuci very kemas and nice.. sweet je. Sib baik time tu AirAsia tak exist lagik.. hehe

Sorry for the blurness.. hhee.. I used hp camera.. taknak la nampak sangat macam blogger tegar kan??

Performance by Farahdiya

We met a lot of celebrities and guess what, I saw someone that owe me so much money.. Ex-Tv3 newscaster. She sat 1 row behind the front row... takde la important manakan?? Aku yang tak celebrity pun dapat seat front row.. From far I knew that she saw me and terus changed her face to annoying/ kedutness face.. Pirahh!! Nasib baik I didn't seat at the front row ok dan nasib baikla aku lapar nak makan kacang (takkan nak makan depan PM plak kan??).. if aku nak gak squeeze2 depan Her Majesty camne?? Sapa yang malu?? Hahahaha... Tu la.. orang buat buku, ko pun nak buat buku lepas tu ciplak idea orang lain.. Buat malu jer!

Ean's 3rd Birthday Bash

2008-12-04T15:03:00.019+08:00

Again.. sorry peeps for not updating the blog.. too busy and lazy :p

Let me update you with Ean's birthday party. We did it last month at McDonalds Mutiara Damansara because we thought that the place is quite big plus if parents wants to go shopping ke, they can just cross over to Curve or Ikea..

Total of 80 guests came (including the kids) and the place was packed! I was upset with McD because the food arrived late even tho we went there a day earlier to place our order. Each party session is 2 hours only. Food came after 20minutes but the fried chicken only arrived after 30minutes.. Mak bengangla.. But i have to control cantik depan guest tak nak tunjuk marah la kan???

I ordered nuggets, fried chicken, fillet-o-fish, cheese burger, fries and drinks and ice cream of course for desert.. Terliur plak.. macam lapar..

Birthday boy tak tidor langsung so member moody terus...

For kids activity, McDonalds came out with 3 games and present was prepared by them. I only had to prepare the pinatas (Thomas pull pinatas) and of course everyone balik with party packla. All in all we spend less than RM1000 for food. We get 10% discount too. Kami applykan Ean McDonalds Kids Club or something and with the membership card, that entitled us for 10% party discount.. cool!

Actually banyak lagi gambar ada. My photographer has captured more than 400pics and tak larat nak upload semua..

That's it... da...

2008-11-03T01:40:00.005+08:00

Before i start my other post with Ean birthday celebration, my overdue operation and trip post, lets check-out my very2 old photo that I discover at my friends house.

Raya hari tu, we went to my friends house, Edd and Intan and I saw this photo from her album..

and this...

The picture was taken at least 7 years ago before me and hubby got married... and Intan was still pregnant with her 1st kid.. now dah ada 3..

I look very different. My weight was between 45kg-50kg. Masa ni, we baru jer bercinta even tho I knew my hubby 2 years before that.. We used to work together at one of the international advertising agencies...

I'll start my diet and gym classes effective tomorrow. PERIOD!

Birthday Cake

Getting Older

2008-10-15T00:20:00.004+08:00

I am grateful
for being in good health, for my ever wonderful family and my career... alhamdulillah ;)

Now is almost 12.30 midnight and I'm wondering.. did my hubby and the rest of my family forgot about my birthday?

Ean's Birthday Preparation

2008-10-14T23:38:00.007+08:00

I feel like writing about Ean for this post. All the hutang post will be sovered later.. I hope. heheh

Ean going to turn 3 this 28th Oct and as a parents yang ada anak sorang (if anak lebih sorang.. I xthink i can spend this much), we've already prepared for his birthday celebration. I keep thinking. Should I do his birthday every year or should I do it every 2 / 3 years? Well, whatever it is, it will still balls back to our budget. If ada rezeki, bolehla buat. If takde, maybe blow the candle je lah... hehe

So, to cut the story short, I'm doing his birthday party this year at McDonalds. We've booked the place, bought pinatas, printed the invitation card, thank u card and of course not forgetting the party pack. Theme for this year is Thomas and Friends.

Ean loves Thomas and the gang so mucho. Everytime we went out, he will ask for Thomas or the gang. He even memorized the character from the catalog. Boleh? Sometimes I will tease him with the train numbers or the song. Memang big fan la mamat sorang ni..

I have started the preparation since July this year when I went to Jakarta with Eza. Bought 2 bags as sample to show hubby and he's ok with it. So, during my last trip to Jakarta in August, I bought at least 30 party packs. The bag is sooo cheap ok. Each cost about RM3 and after that, the kids can still use it. I bought it in Mangga Dua. Sungguh teruja tengok all kids bag there. Siap dah plan gak next year nak theme apa.. hehe. Last year we spend at least RM6 per party basket (last year theme was Halloween) jadi kira jimat la sikit this year. I will upload the pic nanti after the birthday ya.

Hmm.. what else?
I need to send out the cards by this week, oh yes,, cake. I'm looking for Thomas and Friends cake but most of them out there are selling at RM300 at least for 3D cake. Macam mahal plak. Maybe I dont need the 3D cake kot.. Any suggestion people? I need help!!!

For those invited with kids, you can come and follow the theme. If tak tahu where to find the shirt or shoes, u can go to Mothercare or Brand Outlet at Ikano (I saw the sell Thomas shoes, selipar pun ada. hehe). Or if u don't want to follow the theme pun it's ok.. u are still welcome..

I'll post the cards design once everything is in my hand ya..

Thats it.. nantilah if ada apa2 yang dah ingat. i'll update this post ya.

Bye peeps!

Pangkor Laut - Last Day

2008-10-11T22:20:00.002+08:00

Geez... this is still my hutang post.

Ok, our last day in PLR finally come. We were sad and also relieved because we kinda miss our home already..

We had breakfast at the feast village and straight away check-out because our boat was scheduled to leave PLR at 12nn. After breakfast, we spend our time at the library and internet lounge to kill time.. Time ni, my 2 sis went to the pool side sibuk gi amik gambar.. very the kg... hehe

Bye PLR, bye Mike.. we sure gonna miss this most beautiful resort in Malaysia...

Just check-out our photo ya..

For those who have not been to Pangkor Laut Resort yet, you should try to go at least once. You'll definetely fell in love with the beach, the villas, the surrounding and almost everything la.. Just that, make sure you bring enough cash. hehehe

That's it about my PLR trip. Next, my Jakarta trip plak.. Hehe:)

This is the beautiful Emerald Bay.. cantikkan???

I read something interesting in Utusan 2 days ago about Emerald Bay. Please read below..

Pangkor Laut Resort dipilih pantai terbaik dunia

KUALA LUMPUR 8 Okt. - Pangkor Laut Resort yang terkenal dengan pantai Emerald Bay dipilih sebagai antara 10 pantai utama tercantik di dunia oleh Ultratravel, sebuah majalah pelancongan mewah dari United Kingdom (UK).

Pantai yang terletak di sebuah pulau yang diswastakan seluas 121.41 hektar itu dikelilingi dengan pasir halus dan air laut yang jernih berlatarbelakang hutan hujan tropika.

Pangkor Laut Resort adalah satu-satunya pantai di Asia yang disenaraikan oleh Ultratravel sebagai salah satu pantai tercantik.

Selain Emerald Bay, pantai-pantai lain dalam senarai yang berprestij itu ialah Pink Sands di Bahamas, Noordhoek, Afrika Selatan; dan Pampelonne of St. Tropez.

Ultratravel adalah majalah terbitan suku tahunan yang memaparkan pelancongan mewah di seluruh negara dan diedarkan dengan akhbar The Daily Telegraph setiap Sabtu di London dan Timur Selatan UK serta boleh diperoleh dalam laman web Telegraph.co.uk/ultratravel.

Trip to Pangkor Laut Resort

2008-07-31T12:32:00.033+08:00

So sorry peeps.. I was too busy last week. Baru today free skit..

Ok, let me update you about my trip. We went for 3D/2N holiday to Pangkor Laut Resort. Everyone was so excited since kami dah lama tak pergi holiday in 1 big family. I think the last trip was in 2006 when we went to Singapore... Boy didn't follow us this time since he just started working with a new company. Rugi but what to do?? We've planned this since early this year so... nak tak nak, we had to go without him.

Mak, Abah and Along came to KL on Thursday night and kami gerak ke Lumut at 9.30am. We planned to stop at R&R Tapah but ada roadblock and we missed the junction. Masing-2 dah lapar dah time tu... We finally stopped at Batu Gajah and had nasi campur. Sedap nasi campur dia. They even served fruits - durian and manggis (I don't eat durian) so.. we had to draw a limit la kan?? Sapa yang makan durian, kena naik satu kereta. Luckily Along, Gja, Ean and me tak makan so, we naik another car..

We all ngam-ngam sampai Lumut at 1.20pm. Boat scheduled at 2pm. I went and register inside their office and the rest tunggu kat luar. They served us with a cold drinks and hot towel.. best! Hmm.. so far, the service is good..

Time ni dah selesai register dah...

Once everyone dah register and the bag dah tagged and transferred to boat, they ushered us to the ferry..

The journey from Lumut to Pangkor Laut Island will take approximately 45minutes. Dalam boat tu, mostly foreigner. Masing2 dah excited but Gja and me quite scared coz both of us mabuk laut..

Mummy & Ean.. Siap dia bukak tingkap nak tengok air kat luar.. hehe

Me and my hubby...

Pangkor Laut Resort,.. here we come..

Everyone was so excited. Sampai2 dah ambik gambar tu...

Check-out the sea villa behind me..

The small family

Another shoot please... Ean tak leh nak duduk diam tau!

They ushered us to the lobby and gave us welcome drink and hot towel again.. I'm enjoying this totally. We waited for them to prepare our room key.. While waiting, they have their staff to brief us about Pangkor Laut Resort. Where to eat, where's the spa village, the beach.. complete la..

This is the reception area. Tengah tunggu kunci. Ean sibuk ke hulu ke hilir with his moo bag..

We were ushered again to our villas by their staff. I booked 3 villas for this trip & all of us will be staying at Garden Villa - a 2 storey building with 4 units of villa. At first, we supposed to stay at Hill Villa but memandangkan keadaan my dad yang tak berapa kuat, they gave us option to choose the Garden Villa which we did.. senang nak jalan.. tak penat panjat. The sea villa is more expensive. I think per night is at RM1400.

Check-out the bathroom.. i'm in love! They have a private area like a courtyard on bothside of the tub!

Peacock pun ada.. Ean takut..

Peacock empat sekawan..

On our way to the swimming pool. Time is limited so sampai je, tukarkan Ean baju and terus kluar. My parents and sis all kat bilik lagi..

They even gave us a beach bag to use during our stay there.. Bagus....

Daddy jaga Ean at pool. Mummy tengah ada masalah perempuan tiap bulan.. Frust giler siot!!

Ean paling happy k? This is the kid pool. Kami lepas kan je dia mandi sendiri.. Siap tertelan berliter2 air. haha. Nangis kejap, then main balik..

Ha, time ni after berkali2, jatuh, bapak dia sarungkan pelampung but still.. dia tak nak orang pegang, so, ter-rendam lagik.. hehe

I wish I can stay at that sea villa.. Takpe.. next year anniversary.. :)

Burung enggang plak.. They still preserved the natural habitats. That's why banyak binatang kat sini...

Hello....

After pool, kami nak ke beach plak. So we waited for the shuttle bus to go to Emerald Bay. Beach area... Gja, Along and Adik followed us this time..

Time ni dah petang sangat. Almost 6pm. Just main kat kaki air je. Ean takut air laut tu...

Main pasir.. He loves this so much!!

Main pasir lagi. Takpe Ean.. tomorrow kita main pasir lagi k? We need to get ready for dinner tonight..

Dinner at Feast Village. The concept is the same like Starhill. They even have Fisherman Cove here.. A source told me that Keira Knightly (Pirates of The Carribean) was there dining at the private area, but I didn't see her...

Gja and Mama

Abah.

Along and Nurul

Ean yang kepenatan dan terus tertido.... I had to wait for them to finished dinner then baru boleh order food... hehe

A photo of me and hubby at the library area...

We came back from dinner and straight to our room, we noticed that they've changed our towel, make our bed, put the water next to side table, prepare the scented candle and even onkan ubat nyamuk under the bedside table.. Their service is superb! Two thumbs up!!!

Day 2 trip..tunggu.....

Period.

2008-07-23T22:02:00.003+08:00

Sekali aku datang bulan la.....

Memang potong stim betul!!!! Arggghhhhhhhh!!!

Camne nak mandi kat pool tu??? Kasik cerita skit kat aku?

Family Vacation

2008-07-22T20:55:00.003+08:00

The last time we went for a vacation was during hari raya last year. We (just my small family) went with Amy and her family to Damai Laut Resort. We had fun and promised to go for a vacation again this year. This raya, insyaallah we'll be going to Penang pulak on our third hari raya.

I've been planning for my whole family trip since early this year. We just want to go for a short break, locally of course. I have many friends working in the travel industry and been comparing one hotel to another hotel and still can't decide where to go. This time around, I have to consider so many things especially my father conditions (he kan kena mild stroke), he cant really walk lama-2, cant get too pressured so I have to look for a beach resort. On the other hand, I've been missing Bali so so much and to compensate my rindu on Bali, I have to look for a nice villa resort with best price possible.

We are going for our short family vacation this week. My parents are coming this Thursday night and we'll push from here at 9 the latest. Where are we going??? Ha..., l et me give you some clue. This resort won an award - Number One In The World by Conde Nast Traveller, UK 2003. Dapat tak carik?

Hehe... I'll update next week ya. This 2 days I need to settlekan office work la.

Ean Shoes

Do you know that the last I bought shoes for Ean was last year. Itupun pasal Hari Raya la of course. He has 3 shoes. Glamer raya budak tu. Early this year we bought him his crocs sandal and we thought that it could last him at least until year end but... no no no.. all his shoes dah ketat and including his crocs sandal, all need to be replaced asap.

Before this, I saw my friends son, Afiq wore high-cut shoes from Converse and last week, I saw baby Hariz wore his Converse shoes from Hanis's blog - so cute on him, but Hanis told me that that shoes was not bought in here ;( so we try our luck by going to their outlet in KLCC. I never knew that they carry size for toddler. Ada rupanya.. We bought one for him. Very old skool ok. Cute bila tengok dia pakai... But I am quite surprise with the price. Never tot that the price is almost same range with Adidas, Osh Kosh or Nike. It cost us around 85+. Haih!

Yesterday, we went to Pavillion with another mummy to be. We fetch Azizah from KLCC and headed straight to Pavillion. As a mother yang kesian tengok anak ada 1 kasut je, I bought him another shoes from Adidas.. That cost me another RM140. I feel bad. Our shoes punya membuak-buak keluar almari, balcony.. anak ada 1 kasut je yang muat.. kesian Ean...

Next, I need to buy him another sandal. Dah bosan ngan crocs - maybe Clarks or Osh Kosh (but Osh Kosh in Jakarta is sooo cheap - so I'll buy OKosh there la). Well, let see what daddy has to say. Clarks will definetely set be back another RM120+... Mahal betul barang budak2 sekarang. Aku dulu pakai bubble gummers je ok???

I'll add the picture later la yek. My camera now dalam kereta. Malas nak turun ambik :)

Jakarta Again??

I didn't blog about my trip to Jakarta and Bandung last month. If you're in my facebook, you can look at the pictures that i've uploaded. During that trip, I went with Eza, my other director cum best friend and of course... it's on the company expenses. Wohoooo.. ala-ala company trip la. Yelah kan.. penat aku melayan perangai client yang very demanding especially si SUE sampai gaduh2 la.. hehe. Arini, Acheng's fiancee who lives in Jakarta became our tourguide. We really had fun and our days was always full with activity with shopping as our main priority. I bought baju for Ean - for raya of course.. (70% of my money goes to this), lacesss, telekung and sejadah.. Cantik giler sejadah dia, siap ngan bag okkk,,, boleh buat hantaran kawin (ada sesapa dah nak kawin??) and of course baju for the rest of the family. I've also decided that I will not spend for raya anymore. Baju raya for everyone dah cukup.

But... today my another bestest fren, Nasir called and wanted to see me. So we met at Social Bangsar and he handed to me this...

A beautiful wedding card invitation

A nicely hand-woven crafted card with gold stamping leather on the card cover

The lovely couple

Now lets zoom to the envelope again.. check out the venue???

I've known Nasir or Acheng for a very2 long time. He was one of my ex best friend and secara tak langsung, he became my best friend too. Both of us confide in each other whenever we need a friends to talk too. He was supposed to be my hubby's pengapit on our wedding day but his father past away 3 days before ourwedding. I really feel sad not because he can't be our pengapit but because he can't witness our wedding. A friend that I really adore, a friendship that I treasure the most and a happiness that I really want him to have. I am definitely going.

My beloved darling is not going (as for today coz he's still waiting for a minister to confirm on the event launch date) but as a supportive husband, he will pay for my hotel in Jakarta and also my pocket money alhamdulillah... Shopping somemore??? Ean will be staying with his nenek atuk mak long in Melaka or KL (depending on mak abah where they want).

Ticket has been booked, hotel & transportation settled and now i just need to save and not to enter any mall until my Jakarta trip next month.. Tak percaya??? Aku pun tak percaya. Hahaha... and also, I need to be on diet coz nak kena nampak kuruslah skit kan masa attend wedding nanti. Mana tau ada Ari Wibowo / Rado plak kat situ ke... hahaha.

Got to go peeps.. Till the next update.. enjoy your weekends everyone!
