5th Anniversary..

5 tahun dah. Pantas sungguh masa berlalu..

Macam tahun-tahun yang lepas,
saya tak mampu nak hadiahkan apa-apa untuk suami tercinta.

Nak masak special-special..dah slalu dah pun masak.
Nak buat kek, memang takde bakat.
Nak bagi jam Seiko..mana la saya nak cekau duit.
Apatah lagi motor Kawasaki berkuasa tinggi..

Saya pulak memang dari dulu suka mintak macam-macam.
Kali ni mintak Galaxy Note 2.
Tak pun.. Note 2 10.1 .
Paling kurang pun oven sebesar peti sejuk (ada ke?)

Tapi mintak je lah kan..
Dapat tu memang mimpi je lah Kiah oi.. hahaha..

Saya jadi surirumah sepenuh masa ni pun
sebab suami saya seorang yang kaya.
Kaya dengan kasih sayang.

Tak payahlah mengada nak dapat surprise
hadiah sejambak bunga ke apa..
Bukan boleh makan pun bunga tu.
(tapi kalau bagi sejambak ceklat di alu-alu kan..)
Tak payahlah harap suami saya ni nak romantik-romantik,
sebab saya pun tak romantik langsung.

Suami saya tunjukkan dia sayang
dengan balik dari kerja secepat yang mungkin.
Sampai-sampai rumah dengan muka ceria
dan terus ringan tulang membantu kerja saya.

Tak pernah mengeluh letih
tiap malam ajak jalan-jalan pun dia sanggup
walaupun penat seharianan bekerja.

Tak pernah sekali pun minta saya buatkan apa2..
Nak air, nak makan apa, nak suruh ambilkan barang ke..
semua buat sendiri.
Selalunya saya yang perlu tanya apa dia nak.

Request masak makanan kegemaran dia pun tak pernah.
Saya paksa baru dia mintak.

Sabar dengan perangai saya yang suka emo tiba-tiba.
Dia tau mood emo saya boleh berubah kalau rumah kemas bersih
atau mungkin dirasuah dengan makanan (contohnya coklat atau Kepsi)..

Suami saya bukan saja kaya kasih sayang,
tapi bapa mithali juga.

Saya dah penat seharianan di rumah
memastikan segala keperluan asas anak-anak cukup..
Bersih, kenyang.. sihat.. alhamdulillah cukup.

Tapi semua tu dah makan banyak tenaga.
Mengemas, memasak, menguruskan budak-budak 3 orang..
yang setiap satunya perangai berbeza-beza.

Tugas untuk menghiburkan mereka
saya serahkan sepenuhnya pada suami.
Balik kerja terus main lumba lari dengan anak.
Jadi kuda. Main sorok-sorok.

Yang pastinya, rumah bingit tiap kali suami ada.
Bingit dengan gelak tawa budak-budak.
Seingat saya, saya tak pernah segembira itu masa zaman kanak-kanak.

Ibu saya terlalu letih untuk melayan saya..
sama macam yang saya rasakan sekarang.
Arwah abah tak sempat saya jumpa.
Saya bersyukur sangat
anak-anak saya tak pernah merasa ketandusan kasih sayang seorang ayah.


Terima kasih, sayang. Terima kasih yang tak terhingga.
Semoga kita kekal bahagia hingga ke Syurga.

My Mika turns 3m old yesterday.
Weight : 6.8kg.

He's a charming, bright Little Boy.
He always greet me with coos and smiles when he's happy.
Love u, son!

2m 3w old - Mika

See that hair?
Too handsome for a baby.
My little Emo baby has grown up.
He coos a lot now.
Almost giggles when I tickle his belly.
Smiles when we had our baby talk.
He don't seem to care when to stop nursing.
Burps and throw ups few times but still rooting for more.
Grow up little baby.
Mommy loves you so much.

2 months old - Mika

Happy 2 months old, son..

My Little Mika can smiles, coos
And lifts his head for few seconds now.

Weight : 5.3kg

I might be asking too much..

I wish for a house that is always clean.
I wish a good rest and plenty of me-time.
I wish to hang out with my girl friends all day long.
I wish to sit down and sip my coffee slowly, enjoying the aroma first.
I wish to have a little quite time with nobody touching or talking to me.
I wish to maintain my sanity for more than 2 hours.
I wish to go out for a date with Teddy, just the two of us

.. but

I might be asking too much.
And the answer is always the same.

.No.

You can't have that.
Not now.
Wait another 16-20 years.

Wahai hati, tabahlah..

P/s : no suggestions like "hire a nanny" please. You don't understand anything unless u are a stay at home mom.

Family

Kami dah berlima sekarang ni.

Saya kadang-kadang tak menang tangan nak uruskan semua sekali.

Rumah sentiasa riuh dengan bukan hanya gelak tawa tapi juga jeritan (saya) dan disusuli dengan tangisan budak.

Jadi ini alasan saya untuk blog yang terbiar sepi.

Minggu lepas kami pergi berkelah di Bagan Lalang.

Minggu sebelum tu kami buat makan-makan dengan keluarga Teddy.

Oh, lupa. Saya potong rambut pendek paras atas bahu selepas hampir ..16-17 tahun lebih berambut panjang. 

Teddy tak tahan dengar saya merayu selama 3 tahun agaknya. hehe.. Tengs sayang!

Hair grows. Nanti baby dah besar, rambut panjang balik dan binimu ini akan cun semula. 

(Harap-harap masa tu dah kurus. hahahaha..)

Sekian entry express dan padat dari saya.

Cancer cure

Having 3 small kids definitely is not an easy task.
To juggle between kids and house chores is kinda impossible.
I choose to fullfil the kid's needs 1st then other things. Yeah, chores can wait.

I am busy being a mother now.
Trust me, it's not easy being me.

There are times I let the monster in me out with rage.
..and the tricky part is not to lose all the control since I don't want my kids to be another abused victims seen on TV.

..but most of the times, that monster is beaten just by this..

1 month old - Mika

I just got his 1st true smile today!

Finally, a reward for me.. ;)
Thank U dear boy.
Mommy loves u so much.

Weight : 4.2kg

Little Mika - 4 days old

This little guy needs to be nursed within just 2 hours.
One session last for minimum half an hour.
That means sleepless night for me.
Exhausted but hopefully my body will gradually adjusted to fill in his needs.

..and this also means..
Another baby michelin in the making!

Little Mika is here!!

Full name : Mikael Kaiser bin Isa Yassir Arafat.

D.o.b : 29th July 2012.
Weight : 3.4kg
P.o.b : KPMC Punchong.

Doodle!

I love doodling and used to be crazy about having a (pink) Galaxy Note as my toy.
..but then I change my mind due to some reason and grab an S3 instead.

It worths every penny spent and I am totally in love with my new toy.

Some so called 'artwork' I did using s note app + cheap capacitive pen..

16months old Little Lotus

My sweet little girl always amuse me in so many ways.
She's funny and never fail to put a smile on my face in every little things she did.

Yesterday I burst out with laughter when she wanted to join his brother to doodle on her flash card.
She got out from the room and got back in with my capacitive pen in her hand.
My dear.. you can only doodle via phone using that thing!

You can't imagine what kids between her age can do these days.
In her age now she can use my smartphone effordlessly.. unlock, tap on her favourite games, browse on her favourite kids videos, and even doodle using capacitive pen inside the doodle app!
Owh, she even think that my desktop monitor has a touchscreen function.. (now she has already learned that she need the mouse. Hehe)

Elise started to see her big brother as her idol.
She will try to copycat everythings he did.
I love to see their bonding getting stronger each days.
True, having kids meant higher responsibility and lots of hard works.. but it's paid with kisses and laughters.
I never felt alone anymore. Alhamdulillah, Thank You Allah for a house full of people I love.

My Little Peanut is going to join us in any time.
I am going to call him (yeap, it's a boy!) Baby M for now. Will declare his name after he is born later.

Teddy Jr. (3 years 6 months old)

Rossi on bike..

It has been 3 years and a half..

My Dear Teddy Jr. is now a brilliant young boy. He..

1- talks and asks a lot of questions. Series of Q's. Most of them I can't answer properly like..

"Mommy, planet tu apa?"

"Err.. benda bulat yang besar dekat universe ni. Ada planet yg ada penduduk, macam sekarang kita tinggal kat planet yang namanya bumi"

"Bulat tu apa? bumi tu apa?"

"Bulat tu macam bola.. Bumi tu tempat tinggal kita ni." (I started to sound ridiculous)

"Bola tu apa?"

"Bola tu benda yg abang Oci main tendang2 ngan Elise tu la.." (Pointing to his ball)

"Tendang tu apa?"  ..and his questions will started to pile up until I gave up. 

2- can be very polite at times..

He says "please" (in BM) when he wants something and "thank you" when he got it. I just can't resist his demand when he did that.

Throws rubbish in dustbin and not litter anywhere. 

Helps me clean the house by tidying up his own toys in the dedicated basket.

3- is more focus in things he do.

He will stay in front of the tv without moving around watching his favourite show. In the mean time, he loves Boboi Boy, Jack & the Neverland Pirates and he loves Captain Hook funny character. 

Loves puzzles.

4- is more independent and a caring big brother.

Teddy Jr. never bother me at the kitchen when I am busy cooking. Sometimes he will only comes in and asks "Mommy masak apa tu?" and again after few minutes, "Dah siap ke Mommy?"

He guides his Little sis, Elise on how to play the toys. 

He even tries to calm crying Elise by saying "Janganlah nangis Elise.. Abang kan ada.."

Calls himself "Abang" instead of Oci (Rossi).

5- made his Daddy as his ultimate idol.

He always wants to be like Daddy. He will only wears shirt and jeans and refuse t-shirt without collar.

Daddy always wears shirt to work. Jeans at home.

6- made me proud everyday..

..and today he is almost 24 hours diaper's free!

My Family

L.O.V.E them so much!!

15m old ++ Little Lotus

This adorable young lady has her own personality now.

She's funny and will melt everyone's heart with her smiles.
Can says few words and 'mama' is her 1st word. Other than that.. "day" for daddy (used to pronounce it as "di..day".. terbalik. Hehe).. "dah", "nak", "air".. and err.."boboy boi"..
She loves cookies and I love to call her, 'my little eating machine'.

Still puts 2 fingers in her mouth and rub her other hands to my clothes (or any fabric near her including her own) to calm herself/sleep. I found that behaviour is kinda cute.

Understand almost every words and respond to my simple directions like "jom mandi" or "nak makan?" With nods and even tried to undress herself if I mention the word "mandi".
Really2 loves books. She understands and remembers objects in it and applied it in real world. She 'moos' and 'meows' when she saw cows n cats. What a brilliant little girl she is.. make me proud everyday.

Ok, enough for now. Will try to update more about her later.. Meanwhile, Teddy Jr. is a caring big brother and now I can rely on him to take care of his sister. Love both of you so much!

Some updates, perhaps? (Langkawi)

Okay, I'm kinda surprise that the 'new post' in blogger is changed to a different new look. How long did I actually take my time to write something? Pinch me please..

I know it's unfair to my beloved Little Lotus since I didn't update her baby milestones achievements like I did previously with Teddy Jr. Having 2 toddlers at home is a real challenge and I need to choose what is more important. To juggle between house chores, kids need, and my own me-time is getting more difficult.

(Hey, stop babbling nonsense or else this thread won't be published at all!)

Akikah and walking toddler

Alhamdulillah..
Thanks to Allah

Akikah ceremony for our Little Lotus went smoothly yesterday.
Many thanks to my sister in law, Kak Nitce and all family members involved.

My Elise is no longer a baby now.
She's officially a walking toddler since last week!
(Started walking before she turns 1 but don't have the confidence to walk yet).

The truth

Dear Diary..

I need drugs. Real kick ass drugs that can keep my eyes awake 24/7.
I need more energy to support my daily needs..
Not just being able to serve my family..
But for me, myself.. My own needs.

My mind keep telling me to get up and do something but every part of my body is going on a rebel.
To type this via phone while having both eyes open seem kinda hard to do as my half-concious mind going on and off in sleep mode.

To sleep means to waste my precious little time.
The only moment I got to do something that I enjoy.
My only me-time, when no body touching me..
No mouth to be fed..
No cries or shouting to be heard..
..and I finally get to be alone with my phone or pc..

It won't last for long as another few minutes/hours interval, my best moment will be disturb by my baby waking up in the middle of the night.

These things will past in another few years.
For now, I can only pray for Allah to have more mercy on my family and me.
I need to be stronger each day.
I need to take care of myself first..so that I can serve others.
I need to keep my mind focus and entertaint myself with things that made me happy.

The best treatment for now is my baby's smiles.
No matter how bad my day is, her smile never fails to make me feel better.
I have no excuse to feel bad about myself as I am blessed with a caring and understanding husband.
I am a lucky mom because my Teddy Jr. Is a brialiant young man.

Ok.
My time is out.
It's the regular interval disturbant.
Need to put my baby back to slumberland..
