amir gile mandi..
aku masih tido pagi sambil rafiq mandikan amir
and pakai kan cloth diaper and baju sumer..
so I woke up and gi masak nasik goreng amir...
amir masuk dapur, aku bagi amir thongs (penyepit) nak main main..
tetiba suasana rumah senyap je... pelik je
aku gi investigate...
this is what I found...




rafiq tgh guna pc...
amir masuk balik dalam tub.. ngn diapers semua..
tersentap jantung aku... bilik air kan licin..
boleh tergelincir or drown etc.
tapi kelakar je tengok die duduk main senyap2 dalam tu....
hilang mood nak nag.... sebab kelakar....
anyways, lesson learnt.. next time kena buang air
and tutup pintu bilik air...

so mandi la amir 2nd round... nasib baik pakai CD
if not dah terbazir satu disposable free free jek hahah (iklan)

ape lagi aa... (ni adik aku bising suh post gamba2 amir)
ni masa gi OU kelmarin.. lupa bawak SSC or slings...
so nak pinjam trolley or stroller
nampak gaya amir tak cukup tinggi nak sewa trolley keter..




so sewa aa stroller...




ni semalam gi carrefour...
kitorang beli rak TV..
rafiq yg BW and tolak trolley..
wasnt feeling well yesterday...
superdaddy eh..? heheheh

crowded and luas beno okay pasar ramadhan putrajaya...
and they managed to get RM20 from me.. (howda,watta?!!)
repeat the same menu walaupun beso .. aku berjaya gi 1/2 of the pasar...




ni masa kat pasar ramadhan subang.. sempit la plak...
heheh berat gile ooo dukung amir.... masa ni lupa bawak SSC




amir skang suka sangat beno mandi.. pantang tgk org masuk bilik air..
nangeh nak mandi... bila cakap nak mandi, excited gile..
siap tug-tug baju nak suh bukak..
rafiq kata ade one time amir bawah shampoo bagi kat rafiq.....
hint nak suruh mandikan la kot...

ahad haritu.. die dah mandi....
pastu die main-main.. and berak pulak...
so aku bawak gi bilik air... 1/2 naked laa.. cuci bontot...
bathtab die aku belum buangkan airnye lagi...
tau tau je.. die dah panjat masuk dalam tab, main.....
adehhhhh budak ini...




p/s: aku mmg cheapskate.. takde bath toys hahahha.. (ade dulu, tapi dah tak elok kot, naik lumut)

it's a pinky sunday...
ade plak tudung yg matching...




anyways sukanye aku lunatots punye CD...
very plush la the... errrr....
(alamak, lupa nama layer putih tu, lama sgt tak cakap sal CD)..
mmg cam sanaa cakap.. setaraf ngn GAD .. lunatots maybe even plushierr!!
tapi GAD ade size.. lunatots ni one-size..
GAD tu snaps.. lunatots can get snaps or velcro..
best gak velcro die...
tak nyakitkan hati cam HH punye velcro...
aku tak minat sgt opening poket lunatots tu..
tapi everything else is great!!.. sukanye aku tgk amir pakai hahaha
nyesal lak beli 1 je....

penat nak recap.. yang penting, aku ponteng klass jepun halfway..

sensei, sumimasen..
watashi wa ima ikanakereba narimasen..
shigoto desu ..

arrived on time.. amir patutnye tido time ni, tapi nak main.. so penat mengejar...

gamba-gamba borak2 buat cam rumah sendiri...

gamba masa pouchsling contest

takde gamba coz aku masuk bertanding..
then kamera aku plak pegang.. aku masuk coz ade 2 peserta je..
so saje nak meramaikan suasana aku pun masuk la..
aku rase aku dah buat eye-contact ngn farid jangan bagi aku menang.. masuk just nak memeriahkan suasana sket.... tapi perasan gile je boleh menang hahaha (tapi bagi gakla warning kat farid mentally, kot2 la termenang ke if lagi 2 contestant tu pakai lagi tak betul dari aku ke.. bagi jelah depa menang.. )... aku tak terer pon pouch, penah lagi ke korang tgk aku pakai pouch?....seam pun tak blakang bontot amir... main pakai je aku, penat gile kejar amir atas stage.. aku penah pakai pouch sekali je dulu2... after that aku tanak coz rase RS uperior.. but the hotsling yg aku pakai tu memang best lah... pattern pun best, fabric pun best.. kalau amir tak lebeh berat dari satu guni beras, nak aje aku beli.. ade promo tadik.. hotsling yg masuk contest.. dijual ngn harga RM100.. usually RM250+ gitu oleh thelilcaliph.. tapi aku masih ingat daratan.. so lupakan je lah niat nak beli hotsling hot tu...

gamba-gamba masa penyampaian hadiah..
semua peserta naik pentas...
syaz menang ergo (pinjam heheh).. and a new mom yg aku tak kenal menang the hotsling... seriusly the hotsling I wore was hot !@!!! and I dont own any flowery pattern slings... but sukanye aku yg tu..

Blogged with the Flock Browser

waa!!.. I was browsing etsy .. mengenangkan pleat yg tak mampu aku beli..
it was between pleat or shoppin in europe...hmmm  decisions/sacrifice...
maybe later-laterla aku racun sanaa to buy pleats.. so can split shipping 2 ways..
jom sanaa? hehehe

anyways, as I was browsing etsy.. I found this !!




loooks familiar...?? come on babywearers,... guess !!!







it's a freehand MT... !! I was soooo contemplating buying this dulu2 masa newborn...
it was between theresa/freehand.. or a Kozy....
Kozy won....... due to headrest...  but I did get to try on a freehand when amir was 3 mths..
joaanne bought one....

anyways... the MT that caused me so much headache.... and heartache...
looks so perfect for a newborn eh....? hehehe





p/s: aku dah berjaya install photoshop...  makin rajin la aku post gamba hahhaa
tapi pending on connection bongok wimax ni gak lerr....
pastu best jugak flock browser ni.... senang gile nak posting blog..

oh yah... kak eila.. ko penah tgk ke safety gate aku? ko tgk yg ikat kayu dulu kot?? heheh
anyways ni safety gate aku... aku pakai with extension, coz tangga lebar sgt...

Blogged with the Flock Browser

huh.. arini berjaya gak dapat around 20 oz...

yg kiri pagi kul 8.30
tengah ku 12:30
kanan kul 4.30

tapi seksa gak... sebab masih ade saki baki stress... and terkejar sana sini
(office and klass jauh gak.. plus aku skip the free lunch utk pump)..
so susah sket letdown.. maka setiap pump session is around 15 mins...
(lama sket dari biasa).. ni tak campo pasang and cleaning up... just pumping..



saje .. love my minky wipes!!



keh nak balik... nak test something from this kind person .. jeng jeng jeng.. ;)

standardla ni... i go through this cycle of highs and lows..
every few months... aku rase stress sangat breastfeeding..
especially bila die reverse-cycle.. no sleep..
total i'd day aku tido sehari less than 4.5 hours

pastu campo plak ngn amir yang asik nak bergayut je..
ini la yang paling mencabar...
I cant do houswork (sepah la rumah, coz no luxury of maid)
cant cook..so buy food... then habisla budget aku nak beli pleats..
then cant eat.. cant drink when I need to..
cant poop cant pee...when I need to.. so asik kena tahan..

semalam aku nak buat something with maybank2u...
amir nak bergayut and tido..
aku nak larikan diri, die bangun and nak boobs..
sedut 1-2 times then tido.. but aku gerak, die sedut balik..
then bila finally die tak sedar.. internet plak takde...
bengangnye aku!!!!...then bila internet ade, amir plak bangun balik...
pastu aku plak nak terkencing .. aku gi jamban coz mood aku tgh screw eveything..
melalak aa amir... I blamr fking p1 wimax.. yang super suxxxx!! merosakkan mood aku..

kelmarin aku nak terkencing and super dupe haus and lapar..
tapi again amir dalam mood nak gayut and tido...
die lak nak aku baring skali.. how aku nak eat and drink...
rafiq bagi aku cup and straw.... tunggu tido baru leh makan...

combination and culmunation of all.. will break me down..
and bila aku break down, aku amek kesempatan melepaskan semua tensen..
nangeh puas puas for all various reason... tak dapat install photoshop, tak dapat beli pleat pun termasuk gakla reasons nak nangeh semalam... lepas tu okay balik,


nak aje aku take the easy way out.. just exclusively pump... bm jugak kan..
senang gile hidup aku.... no more sore nipples.. bloody nipple ..
(still got it bila tergigit ngn the 8 teeths amir tu)
ade freedom to do what I want... the freedom to not hold my own pee...
to poop whenever I need to poop...
malam2 pon boleh je aku suruh papa panaskan susu, so I can get my beauty sleep longer.. life will be much easier...


but there's more benefit with breastfeeding...
which I will get into it next time...todays session is for venting....
so harini aku akan hanya focus on the tensen side of breastfeeding...
(so sesapa yg membace jangan la discourage.. jangan ingat takde mende best nursing baby.. 80% is good... 20% is tensen.. tapi harini aku nak rant on the tensen part.... ilangkan stress)

but everytime aku got over myself and renew the resolve to continue breastfeeding
I am happy I got over the obstacle and tak amek jalan senang...
sangat senang nak putus usaha... it's a test of your kesabaran..
seriusly... the mantra... its just a phase.. helps a lot... sakit dan seksa hanya sementara...

but I am still not happy financially...
oh yeah! I blame money too.... If I had enough money to shop (retail therapy)...
dont think i'd be stress about the things above hahhahaa (I wish)

harini course... so kena pam 3 kali... stressnye... gtg pump!!!

Untitled

stress ! 2 times i cried semalam..
for no specific reason.. just nak let out perasaan tensen and bengang..
must be the hormones too..

p/s: things arent looking good for pleat.. wonder if I can put into budget
nak aje aku caj creditcard... bayar next-next month...
tapi tgh avoid doing  that... need to have the cash for it.. even if i'll be paying in creditcard (paypal)..

Blogged with the Flock Browser

ah crap! .. baru ku sedar yg the last purple CP is from Pleat.. yg free shipping..
(mye punye link la nih.. arghh!)
seperti harus ku beli...
well.. now they are in my shopping list for this month...
double crap!!! kopak la aku... gaji tak masuk lg dah kopak.. boleh?

but this pattern is so gorgeous okay!!!



so pick 5 eh?

1. Posy in purple
2. Baroque pink on Light pink
3. Cocktail citrus on turqouise
4. Wavy dots on red
5. Mango on dark pink

Disposable diapers saved by using cloth diaper:

20 July - 26 July : 15 keping
27 July - 2 Aug : 2 keping
(time ni amir demam and kena somesort of infection down there)
3 Aug - 9 Aug : 10 keping
10 Aug - 16 Aug : 13 keping

orang kata kalau baby demam.. or nak tumbuh gigi.. their pee is more "kuat"...
ni dulu aku amek gamba masa amir teething... pee on the CD... aku dah basuh CD ni, tapi still ade kesan gelap camni.... (lepas basuh balik and sidai bawak matahari, CD itu kembali normal)... so kalau demam, teething.. kena selalu tukar CD/pampers... maybe di sinilah punca rash/infection.. the strong pee... I dunno.. just theorizing here

harini singgah kejap ke tiny tapir..
sukanye aku kedai TT nih... heaven for BW and CD...


nak amek SB ring sling aku dari kak shada ...
she gave me a colorful pouch sebab pinjamkan RS...so vibrant!! thanks!! :D

also met chinnee for the 1st time, creator of mamapatch ring sling...
usually only communicate online... her Ring slings are gorgeouss!!!!
too bad my ring sling days are over...
also her cloth pad looks tempting, but pattern takde bunga2 like I want :(




also sempat jumpa farid...
tanye sal next week's event at parenthood expo...
nampak gaya nye cam harus aku ponteng klass kejap..
halfway aku kuar la klass time rehat...
ekkusupo e ikanakereba narimasen yo....





jumpa gak ngn linda... and baby ammar...
her hubby dah pakar pakai RS hehehe.. (hubby ku bila lagi?)
same je kecik cam last time I saw him...
cant imagine amir was ever that size....

Joanne of littlepods was supposed to come... tapi die delayed sket kot..
so tak sempat jumpa die..

i heard adrianna was planning to come...
(oh!! which reminds me, lupa nak blog about it ...a few weeks back.. jumpa MBW team and syaz and hanim at marche.. .) aku takde gamba.. tapi the only gamba kat sini.. first time jumpa kak wiera... thanks for bringing back my O&A :D

harini tak ramai ... aku dah agak dah pon..
coz barruuuu je last week dah ade picnic kat tiny tapir bungalow damai...
people will choose to go to that one...
tapi aku tak gi... kak shada pun tak gi last week...
campo lagi ngn h1n1 issue nih...
so aku tatau aa ade ke talk tadi, aku singgah jap jek... macam tak ade je heheh...

tapi sempat jugak aku rembat 2 minky cloth wipes..
sukanye aku minky wipes ni...

p/s: perasan tak aku rajin nak link kan semua org dlm post nih? hahaha.. syndrom tanak tido, nak main PC....

amir sleeping... usually i'd sleep too..
tapi gatal nak main PC baru hehehe..
pastu intenet ku terasa superfast pulak the last 2-3 days...
laju je nak upload2 gamba
before that, yokunakatta...

btw, am I searching etsy for cloth pad?...
(explanation for men and vivi: pad for period yang tak disposable)
dang it... it's a slippery slope hahaha
I dont have budget for it.. and yet I am searching for them...
why...??? masochistic sungguh

btw I love these patterns..!! would make a good MT or an O&A
(hmm sepesen je pattern yg aku minat nih..)








Anyways, it's a good day for cloth diapering...
ii tenki desu ne....




nak tido gaklah, gotta stop torturing myself google stuff I dont have a budget for....

ja, mata ....

lately, otak aku dah cam tanak tido more than 4-5 hours per day..
aku mmg penat nak mati setiap hari..
tapi otak aku tanak tido.. dah terbiasa kot...
(teori aku adalah, aku takut nak tido sebab takut terjaga ngn mengejut oleh amir... bila aku terjaga ngn mengejut, kepala aku pening gile, so nak tido pun takut hahhaa)


so pagi tadi time rafiq bawak amir gi tgk football match..
patutnye aku pulun tido.. instead aku gi mandi ngn mengemas..and main internet..
sebab bilanye lagi aku nak buat mende2 nih...
ngn amir asik nak bergayut...
basuh pinggan pun bergayut kat kaki...
susah betul aku nak accomplish things...
again.. repeat the mantra "it's all a phase"...

kalau aku cuti weekdays nak rehat, amir hantar away gak, aku akan bangun kul 8-9...
patutnye aku bangunla kul 11 ke 12...

anyways dah malam ni pun, patut nye aku tido same ngn diorang
tapi takleh la plak...
so aku overhaul blog...
and nak post gamba semalam...kat toys r us midvalley






sweetnye amir senyum....
semestinye he didnt get that from me hahahah....
tapi gamba tak jelas, I need a new camera....
thinking of the new lumix yg 12x optical zoom TZ6 ke 7 ek?
yang tulah... RM1,600
rafiq tensen... sama cam harga TV die kata hahahha...
nak buat camne... aku jenis wajib ade camera...
tapi budget cam takde jek hahah.. berangan jelah

anyways... we welcome our new babies home this weekend

deLLy, vivaVoom, samsam

ehh baru sedar kenapa aku liat nak tido malam ni...
aku nak main ngn baby baru, deLLy....hehehe

hmm.. how do u guys arrange ur baby pics folder...?
aku dulu takde system.. now pengsan wanna arrange..
now for new ones aku ikut date yg aku upload pics masuk pc...
but also then aku sort out ones with themes..
i.e evens, trips, bw, blw, cd, bf... these have separate folder...

tooo many pics@@@!!!

okeh tak cukup penutup pulak.. terbabas...
seb baik sanaa ade... pinjam satu...

kiranye quantity wise susu normal aa..
tapi aku my mind rase cam sikit...

sama cam kalau aku melantak.. weightwise beratnye maintain sama je
tapi aku akan rase gemuk gile..

disebabkan susu cukup, tak perlu la berbuka posa...

P/S: MBW booth for tomorrow's event at Hospital Pantai Bangsar is cancelled, due to Jess's son Arthur demam... I was supposed to help her tomorrow.... nak suruh aku handle sorang2, dont think I can do it hehehe...

Also Tiny Tapir's BW Talk... MBW booth also cancelled (as per Jess's sms)
I am not sure whether the event itself is still on...
Syaz... on ke tak? I'm supposed meet Kak Shada to get my SB double linen RS back.. If on, I'm going...

crisis update

Sesi petang kul 2.15 dapat 6-7 oz saje..
so total around 18 oz lagi harini...
aku pam awal coz kang balik smayang jumaat kang kecoh2 nak buat document ...

5 perkara nikmat....
http://zurahamid.blogspot.com/2009/08/to-fill-in-gaps.html

1. makan atas katil depan tv....sorang2.... bawah aircond ..
this is what I do in my alone time....bestnyeee..
mungkin baring terus, or separa baring.. tengok amende yg aku makan

2. baring atas katil sorang2, bawah aircond bace katalog-katalog sale
my guilty pleasuree...

3. makan durian.... oh and cheese.... bila makan mende2 ni rase fuuh nikmat satu macam

4. tido lepas makan.... ini aku elakkan aaa takut buncit.. tapi kalau la tak buncit/gemuk.. aku tido terus lepas makan.. bestnye....

5. tido sorang2 bawah aircond (pentingnye aircon ni), atas katil sendiri, selimut sendiri dan bantal busyuk aku sendiri ... aku benci tido katil lain.. termasukla jugak katil hotel..(no guarantee yg katil depa tu sedap).. aku tekankan sorang2 ni, sebab amir selalu pusing sana sini tgh2 malam... so aku tido pun separa lelap jer.. sentiasa ready nak bangun incase die melalak....tapi for the past 2 weeks elok gak die tido...(but the week before that was hell, reverse cycling) bangun 2-3 times for breastfeeding je... so okayla ni...tapi aku suka gile lepas rafiq bangun pagi and bawak amir to send of to sitter kul ~6.15 pagi tu..tido dari 6.15 till 7.30 tu tido paling nikmat aku... sebab aku takyah risau ade org tetiba nangeh ke, or panjat2 aku nak susu..

I am tagging: sanaa, vivi, eddcruz, nakblogjugak, and kakeila


p/s: ohh btw aku lain sket, aku tak suka punggah keluar mende2 yg aku beli lepas shopping..sebab aku lepas beli barang aku akan depressed sebab duit takde.. dah jadik barang... tapi kalau barang2 tu murah, aku suka gak buat hahaha....

Susu aku harini okay....Hasil pam pagi... 11 oz gitu ..
walaupun aku rase aku lagi superstress hari ini...
benci betul AOG AOG ni... aku nak tukar keje la.....
taktau lagi susu aku petang ni camnerr...




oo btw...
Rafiq kata semalam amir minum 2 botol beso (20 oz aa ni)
ngn 2 frozen stock masa aku keje
Frozen stock tu at least 5 oz each.. (aku guna playtex 8oz)
so total... 30 oz at least….(ini tak campo petang lepas aku balik keje and malam)
Pastu makan gak.. bukan tak makan cam selalu…
aku makan nasik ayam, die nak nyibuk..
Tapi aku bagi soya.. die minum 2-3 sip.. pastu nak boobs hahaha adehhh..
vitagen pun gitu selalunyee.....
sedap lagi ke susu aku dari soya/vitagen? power power...
ala nak meleset ngn aku la tuh.....

Growth spurt kot…

aku sungguh stress nih.... banyak tul masalah duniawi...
susu semalam pam 18 oz saja.....
so skang aku tambah stress sebab susu sikit...
harini posa... sambil stress... mmg carik nahas....
tapi harini dapat 18 oz gak... okla tuh kot...
aku cam tak yakin je dapat fulfill posa arinih....
aku siap bawak bekal.. incase nak berbuka hahaha...
tengok la cemana...

Jom pegi... Parenthood expo, time ni la sale gegila barangan bayi...
Also drop by babywearing event dibawah ni.. and join the contest...!

Show slot: 4.30-5.00pm
Venue: Convention center, Midvalley

http://www.thelilcaliph.com/e-Boutique/?p=512

the O&A is really awesome..
I would say cepat gile aku pakai, lagi cepat dari ring sling..
mungkin perlu tangkap video sebagai bukti dan hasut orang suh beli SSC?
best tul hasut org... rase guilty tu kurang sket kot? hahahha
walaupun senang gile and comfy gile... this is no way to jalan-jalan europe all day long..

anyways.. my next big purchase will be......
(sesuka hati aku je decide, rafiq belum approve lagi)
Maclaren Volo..... or Maclaren Daytripper...

Volo is 3.8 kg...



Daytripper is 4.8 kg...



Tapi Volo 1 position, Daytripper ade 2 position....
Perluke aku sacrifice weight for recline? hmmm...
I am leaning towards Volo...
