of.the other half.&.me.

Just realized that I hardly write bout C*** these days. he he. No, it's not an indicator that I'm loving that other half of mine any less. He's still my intan payung and all that as I'm his - ha ha, sila muntah.

So yea, to commemorate the undying love, am going to whip up something nice for iftar later. How bout grilled lamb with herbs sounds to you darling? :p

Well, it has been pretty cold during the night these days, so much so that the little precious refused to sleep on her bed but prefers to sleep on ours instead - she could sleep whilst being cuddled tapi the moment we put her on her bed terus ek ek padahal dah tido terkulai layu dah an hour ago. Tsk tsk. I think she loves our thick duvet. It's warm and comfy, siap ade bau mak bapak dia kan? Maybe rasa sungguh safe and secure.

So yea, I've been sandwiched together between C*** and the baby due to her latest liking. Sampai lenguh badan mak ni nak oii (so please get mummy that super awesome bed once ya grow up). Imagine sleeping like a log, static je, takot terpenyek itu budak since she's a heat-magnet. Dah letak dia kt tepi but somehow she'll managed to roll over, tup tup she'll rest her head against my arm. he he. So much so that I often wake up at night just to switch my sleeping position.

Yer, switch sleeping position dalam sedar okay, tak boleh suka-suka hati mamai nak pusing-pusing tarik selimut segala and C*** in between his mamai-ness, he would pat me back to sleep - which is funny but sweet,dah tua-tua pon tido ade orang nak tepuk.

Talking about sweet, would be nice to have a glass of iced sugar cane juice for iftar later. C***, belikan please? ThanksIloveyou.

Later.

of.EID spirit.&.me.

We finally bought something for the baby (& none for ourselves except for a tub of Lecka lecka ice cream, owh wait a min, it's actually just for me) in the spirit of EID this year.


Cute rompers,a pink dress and a little pretty white dress - no, it's not the party-princess kinda dress. It's an all white English cotton baby dress. It's so adorable that I feel like getting one myself - tho of course it would be a tough luck finding it my size (& gaining C***'s nods of approval to wear it - he has a certain reservation on me wearing whites, senang ternampak bebenda yang tak patut katanya.ehem).

Owh, it's already the 2nd week on Ramadhan but it was my 1st time going to the bazaar yesterday. We went there without the baby so it sorta feels like the old days again. It was drizzling and we forgot the umbrella so yea, we were walking hand in hand in the rain, how romantic. :P haha.

After all the romantic-ness that we went thru, ended up beli popia and murtabak jer. Same old,same old. Menu yang sama jer each time.

On a lighter note, we're yet to find anything interesting for the parents. Perhaps I could find something nice from British India for dad as he digs linen shirt but I'm running out of idea of what to get for mum and the PIL. Tengok lah macam mana, as it gets a wee bit hard to go on shopping spree these days - the mini-us itu suka buat perangai before her nap time and each time we're out, masa tuuu jugak la dia nak tido. he he.

That's about it, enough of multitasking (I'm blogging and pumping actually.heheheh). I'm going to catch some Zzzz with C*** and the baby.

Tata.

of.mellowed.&.me.



Who would have thought that I'll be the 1st person to be in the office today.Rajin sungguh saya - rajin ada makna, harini balik awal. Yey!. :P

Well, life has been pretty interesting lately. Working life is back on track (& the workload's catching up on me) and the baby's finally fine with bottle feeding. The amount increased from 8oz/day to 15oz-18oz/day in just a week. I'm glad. Alhamdulillah.

It's good to know that she's not starving whilst I'm at work - and due to the increasing demand, am finally getting myself the Medela FS. Huuu..Swing works fine for me but since I'm already back to work and whatnot, timing is rather crucial. So let's not waste much time (time's gold ya know?) and grab the FS instead. It's an investment but I'll make sure that it's a money well spent. InsyaAllah.

Well, this morning, after kissing C*** goodbye as he's leaving for work and preparing the EBM for the baby, I still had sometime to kill before getting ready for work - so I lie awake next to Myra with my lips on the side of her head - breathing in her baby smell whilst my dam of tears threaten to break. he he. Takde lah sedih, it's just that the realization of how I'm blessed with such gift and whatnot, adelah a wee bit mengharukan perasaan.

I think I've sorta mellowed after the marriage and the baby. Sentimental terlebih and this came from the former raksaksa gorgon. :P As much as I like to put up a stoic front, saya sebenarnye adelah hopelessly emotional bout certain stufff tho I'm still pretty tough on the other side and it ain't easy to break me. Coin pun ade 2 sides kan? Manusia lagi la banyak sides - the ugly sides of people adelah yang paling menakotkan, but fret not la kan?

For God's always watching and listening. :)

Owh, I need a shopping spree, like desperately. Nak wedges Clarks yang cantik plis.

of.routines.&.me.

Just finished my 1st pumping session of the day whilst waiting for the clock to hit 7am so I could get ready for work.No, it's not what ya think. I don't do 100 push ups for flat tummy - tho flat tummy is nice - but since I don't have issues with tummy (my never ending issue is still the ever so curvaceous butt), so yea, push ups what? :P

Owh back to the pumping - things that bf mommies do lah kan? A year back I would wait for my get-up-for-work time whilst lying on the bed covered with a thick duvet, sekarang tidak lagi.

My morning routines these days usually start right after sahur or around 6am as I need to check on Myra's ebm - put em in individual bottle for each feeding (she's one fussy little precious, she loves fresh ebm compared to the frozen one hence the early morning pumping session - at least she'll get 6-7oz of fresh ebm for the day, ditambah pula with the existing chilled stock), pack the cooler bag, take a shower then DF si kecik before getting ready for work.

Yea, it makes me feel a whole lot better to leave for work after seeing that contented look on her face.

On a lighter note, we went back to Malacca during the weekend. It was blissful since it the weather was on mild side. The little precious pulak loves being in the centre of attention seperti biasa. Memang attention seeker.

On another lighter note, we're going back to Kedah in a week or two.

I can't wait.

of.the hungry baby.&.me.

Did ya know that I took a half day off on my 1st day at work since Myra couldn't stop crying? Which I reckon was out of hunger - she only drank 1oz of EBM from 8am to 2pm (puasa ke nak?), she refused the bottle and push her nenek's hand away when she tried to spoon feed her. Pengsan.

So yea, I came home at 3pm to a tired looking baby and the moment that she saw me adelah buat muka sedih as if a way of saying "mummy, where have you been?". Tsk tsk. Kesedihan berganda sejuta.

I nursed her and she fell asleep. That night she did nothing but cling to me like a baby koala. Tido pon melekat jer and since C***'s not around for a work trip, she got to sleep on our bed.

Haih, I thought this going back to work thingy gonna be easy but apparently it's not.

Well, on the 2nd day at work, I was already fidgeting on my seat by noon, half expecting to receive a call from the MIL asking me to come back home but the call never comes - which was a huge relief as it indicated that the baby's doing fine.

So yea, she still hates the EBM tho she used to be okay with it previously but she had 3oz of EBM compared to 1oz the day before. Still no where near to sufficient as I swear her face light up when I got back home and she nursed like she's starving - so I'm hoping that she'll take more EBM today.

Owh, she also resorted to multiple naps during the day whilst I was at work tho she rarely sleeps during the day before, macam hibernate untuk kurangkan pengunaan tenaga. Ya know tido = kurang lapar = kurang EBM (which she detest).


Haih baby, sila la minum susu, jangan la buat mummy susah hati. Tsk tsk.

of.back to work.&.me.

It's the 2nd day of Ramadhan and my 1st day at work (datang awal dgn jayanya so I could get back home on time) - I'm supposed to get back to work yesterday, but I bought myself another day off by burning another day of AL.

How am I feeling bout getting back to work? Excited? Not so much.

I'm a bit restless. I feel like picking up the phone to check on how Myra's doing at home. Is she okay? Did she refuse the EBM like usual? Did she screams her lungs out whilst looking for me? Tsk tsk.

If money is not an issue, I bet that I'll be a SAHM in a heartbeat but I want us to be able to satisfy our needs for all the good things in life, to provide the best for our little precious dan bukan cukup-cukup makan (he he, masih mempunyai nafsu untuk benda-benda yang lagha di situ) - jadi tak boleh la goyang kaki adanya, yes?

Well, the little precious woke up whilst I was getting ready for work. She refused to DF since she's still full for the previous feed after Subuh. She was smiling with the amused look on her face, ya know she finds it amusing to see me with my tudung on. I think she managed to relate tudung with going out. So when I kissed her goodbye without picking her up from the bed, adelah tercebik-cebik kesedihan.

Hai lah anak, mummy adelah kena pegi keja okay. Tak boleh lah nak bawak sekali, if only I could then I absolutely would - tapi kang tak jadi keja la jawabnya.Huuu..I'll see you in few hours, till then be good for nenek.

Owh, have a blessed Ramadhan. :)
