Perihal Lightsabers

Dear boys,


As we are a family of mostly boys, ammi tak berkecik hati pun ammi tak kisah if apa yg baba minat menurun kat u all. Yelah kang kalo minat ape yg ammi suka maybe lain pulak jadik nye..


Boys,
Ammi tau baba mmg fanatik kan siri 'star wars' dr b4 ammi kawen dgn baba lg..mmg baba ada koleksi CD (bkn Cloth Diapers ye waidi) & video siri starwars, apa2 yg ada kaitan starwars baba akan tengok, baca, collect etc..ammi tak kisah, duit baba pun sume tu kan, yg penting baba happy. 


Boys,
As you boys grew older, sedikit sebanyak baba's passion, interest akan terlekat kat u all, maybe in yaya lg lebih. Syaik ammi perasan taklah se fanatik abg yaya, maybe syaik lebih kpd art & creative things. yela..ammi dah nmpk bakat seni tu dah menurun pd syaik..


Boys,
Ape2 pun ammi nak cerita sikit ttg lightsabers, as u all know, lightsabers ni pedang yg dlm citer starwars tu kan. Dalam family kita ni each & 1 of us ada lightsabers masing2..kebanyakannya pengaruh baba gak.

Milik: baba yg punye

Beli di mana: beli online, tak ingat brp harga

Kelebihan: ada lampu if letak bateri, panjang, pedang both sides

mcm2 button ammi pun tak reti apa function nye..

Fungsi: sekadar baba's collection & hobby

Milik: Ni yaya punye

Beli di mana: beli kat Target masa kat Aussie dl, yaya dpt invitation friend's 

b'day bertemakan starwars so setiap org kalo boleh ada lightsaber.

Baba pun dgn suka hatinya membelikan yaya,pergilah beli kan,nasib baik tgh sale.

 yela kang yaya sorang takde lightsaber nangis pulak kat party tu cian dia..

Kelebihan: tak de lak lampu la pulak ammi tgk, sekadar main lawan2

action jelah, seronok yaya kat party..

Fungsi: yaya main, lawan syaik

Milik: kununnye  syaik punye tp baba belikan,mcm terpakse terima, baba 

yg terlebih sudah..

Beli di mana: beli kat Jaln kulit, Penang.

Tempat ni byk jual brg 2ndhand & brg2 baru tp harga yg tak mahal sgt..

Kelebihan: ada games, taruk bateri leh main game. Tp ammi tgk syaik 

tak heran pun. Main game kuar sound

Fungsi: main game jap ,pastu bateri flat

Milik: Dulu syaik's tp dah berpindah tuan ke waidi 

Beli di mana: beli kat garage sale masa duk Aussie dulu

Kelebihan: ada lampu if letak bateri, panjang, tapi dah ada rupa kerosakan.

maklumlah yg main lebih abg yaya..takpelah harga pun taklah mahal sgt..

Fungsi: syaik lawan balik abg yaya

Milik: yg ni AMMI PUNYER

Beli di mana: Ntah mane tak ingat

Kelebihan: Tak payah pakai bateri ke ape ke, harga murah sgt, sebut je "nanti ammi 

amik lightsaber ammi kang", InsyaAllah terkemas lah bilik/ruang tamu yg bersepah-sepah tu.

sebut je "jangan smpi ammi amik lightsaber", InsyaAllah berlari larilah boys ke bilik mandi memandi kan diri mereka..Sebut je "nak rase lightsaber ammi kaa??", nanti siaplah homework yaya yg tertangguh-tangguh tu..

Fungsi: mendisiplinkan boys ammi yg ada kala tak mau dengar kata, ada kala melawan kata2 ammi, adakala tak mau kemas lepas main, adakala suka tangguh2 kerja yg ammi beri

Boys,

Dalam byk2 lightsaber kat umah kita ni, ammi rasa ammi nye plg power, plg 'magical' dan plg bermanfaat penggunaanye.

Sorry kepada dinding, katil, sofa, pintu dan meja makan yg selalu menjadi mangsa..

Ammi harap as u boys grow older, u'll be more disiplin & tak perlu ammi guna lightsaber ammi..

Kesian pd mereka2 yg jadi mangsa..

Ammi bukanlah pendera/kejam/zalim..ammi cuma mahu anak2 ammi jd org yg dengar kata etc..tp bila kadang2 kata2 ammi tak cukup untuk boys bertindak, maka lightsaber harus dikeluarkan..

Ammi sayang yaya, syaik & waidi & of course baba...mmuahh to all my heroes..

Gathering itu hari

Dear boys,

Ingat tak kita pergi gathering sabtu lepas at Taman Belia Pulau Pinang, arini br ammi ada time nak write dlm blog. Gathering ni adalah anjuran susuibu.com & ratu hati utk zon utara, disebabkan kita pun dah duk utara, ammi decided to join.Program sepatutnya start 10pg, tp biasalah kita kan duk jauh nun di sana selalu mcm ni, pkl 10 br nak keluar rumah, u boys mmg if hari cuti suka lepak2, bgn lmbt & tgk katun sume. Tp tak apelah, kita takla selambat mana pun, ammi pagi2 dah siap masak macaroni grg utk potluck & b/fast kita.

Boys tak mau bangun

Macaroni grg ammi's recipe

So, after semua dah bersiap, off we went. Tak jauh pun dr rumah, dlm 25minit je..sampai2 dah start, speaker sis shida sedang memberi talk about babywearing, sambil cerita sambil babywearing baby boy dia. Ammi lmbt smpi so kena intoduce diri in the  middle of talk dia. A bit embarassing tp nak wat camana..ramai families yg join, seronok tgk..ramai babies baring2 kat toto, termasuklah waidi. Baba bz amik gambar, boys main kat keliling2 tu. Nice & beautiful place. Tema colour of the day was green, so mmg nmpk green je everywhere..

Demo cara memakai a sort of carrier for babies/toddler

(ammi forgots the name of it, sorry..)

Model ialah sis Dura

Ammi suka tgk, cuma..yelah, tapi.. harganya yg amat mahal bg ammi buat masa ni tak mampu lg, .lgpun takut beli kang waidi tak suka pulak..berpeluh sakan la waidi asyik peluk dgn ammi je.

Babywearing ni objektif nya supaya baby akan rapat dgn ibu nya, & akan cpt independence becoz dah puas rapat dgn ibu, so akan cepat mature & berdikari sendiri. Personally bg ammi & baba all u boys mmg rapat dgn ammi coz ammi is a SAHM, so hari2 mmg kena ulit etc..takut korang boring asyik ngadap muka ammi je.hehe..waidi lg lah skrg, baba student so lots more times at home, waidi manja teramat dgn ammi & baba.

Lepas tu acara lunch, rata2 families bw makanan sedap2..mcm2 ada, yaya suka' cokat kek', syaik suka 'kuntunpat n kuah kacang & kawipap'. Baba & ammi mkn mihun grg n kuih muih. seronok..mcm hari raya pun ada. Lepas mkn boys pegi mandi swimpool sementara ammi n waidi dgr talk seterunya oleh suami sis Hana about children safety at home. Mcm2 info berguna ammi dpt, Kebanyakannya dah tahu cuma sbg reminder & if really happen to us what we should do..gambar tak ada pula, baba bw kamera amik gambar boys mandi swimming pool. Maybe next year's gathering baba boleh bg talk on "Childhood education"..

Selepas tu, it was supposed to be a talk by Dr balqees from Pantai Hospital, she's an expert on lactation & also a paediatrician.  While waiting for her, ammi n waidi jenguk2 boys mandi. Best sgt yaya n syaik mandi/berendam. Ramai betul org, dr jauh pun ada..

Dr Balqees gave a talk about weight gain in breastfeeding babies. How to EBM for working mothers, how to 'bersuara' utk dptkan hak di tmpt kerja, request for a room utk jadikan nursing room & sebagainya. Beliau memberi kata2 semangat bg working moms to continue to breastfeed exclusively. Ammi dgr dgn penuh tekun & ammi bersyukur sgt2 ammi dpt direct feed waidi tanpa perlu EBM etc..

Ammi bergambar dgn rakan baru aunty shira & baby nya anas

Masa ni boys & baba pergi main playground , pun macam2 ada. baba yg tua  dewasa pun leh main gak.

After that, it was the end of the program, every1 helped to clean up. Also a lucky draw was drawn, everybody bawa something, tak kisah ape2/harga brp/byk mana, yg penting ikhlas..so lucky draw/gift exchange dijalankan..our family dpt wind mobile, ammi dp alfalfa shaklee milk booster dr aunty rini, then dpt colouring book n pencil colour sets, then baba jwb soalan & dpt train toy , letak bateri boleh gerak2.

The last event was a group photo for mommies & children, time ni waidi dah tido atas stroller so tak masuk pulak dalam gambar..

Bersalam-salaman,tukar hp number, excahnge blog address & semua balik, seronok! InsyaAllah nxt year jumpa lg..our family pusing2 taman belia tu amik gambar & mkn aiskrim..

InsyaAllah lain kali kita dtg lg ye boys, kita swim puas2, bawak picnic, bawak tikar, main playground, pergi on adventure trail, tak sangka lak tempat ni best!

Love u boys..,

Half Birthday

Dear Waidi,


Time flies, doesn' it..sekejap je anak cute ammi ni dah half a year, sorry lah sayang ye,ammi ni kurang beri perhatian pd waidi. Maksud ammi, ammi kurang fokus terhadap perkembangan waidi, ammi kadang2 tak perasan yg waidi ni dah membesar & mencecah 6 bulan. Mungkin kerana bz dgn abg2 waidi. dulu masa cuma ada abg yaya, dialah sorang yg ammi ulit hari2 so ammi lebih fokus terhadap tumbesaran & tiap perkembangan dia. Masa time abbg syaik kecil pun, abg yaya masih kecil juga so ammi tidak sesibuk sekarang.


Waidi,


Ammi ni kadang2 terkejut tgk tiba2 waidi dah pandai tiarap  & guling2 sampai masuk bwh sofa. Ammi tiba2 tersedar yg waidi dah nak masuk 6 bln & boleh disuap makanan solid.Ammi kagum dgn pencapaian waidi yg dah laju naik walker & pandai pegang toys, ammi tak terperasan yg waidi is growing fast. Ammi alpa dgn tiap 21hb yg patutnya menambah usia waidi..Ammi tak sengaja syg, dulu masa abg2 waidi kecil ammi kurang t/jwb. Sekarang ammi ada 3 heroes nak dijaga, plus baba of course. Tambahan pula skrg abg2 waidi dah bersekolah & masing2 ada t/jwb di sekolah spt h/work dan hafazan yg ammi kena monitor daily.

Waidi,


Ammi tahu tu bkn alasan, tp apakan daya ammi ni manusia biasa..bila malam2 ammi mengadap komputer, abg2 waidi dah tidur dan cuma tinggal kita berdua..,time tu lah yg ammi 'terperasan' yg anak cute ammi dah besar, makin pjg, makin pandai macam2..suka mkn, lagi2 homemade mashed potatoes. Waidi dah cam muka ammi sbg orang yg akan beri comfort dan susu utk waidi, ammi suka sgt bila waidi nampak ammi dan excited, waidi tarik rambut ammi dan tatap wajah ammi dgn penuh kasih sayang & buat aksi cium pipi ammi...Bila breastfeeding pula  waidi genggam ibu jari ammi dan kadang2 pegang rantai leher ammi.


Waidi sayang,


Sesungguhnya ammi bertuah dpt breastfeed waidi secara exclusive & direct feeding  dari lahir until kini, dan InsyaAllah hingga waidi cecah 2thn..bonding ini amat berharga bg kita, mmg erat sgt rasanya ikatan ini. Ammi tak puas2 menatap wajah waidi, lg2 bila breastfeeding. Kadang2 waidi tenung ammi, so lovely & cute..


Waidi dear,


Happy half birthday syg, lg half a year waidi akan mencecah setahun..wow! ammi can't wait..
May u be a good soleh muslim boy..
Love u sayang soo much, now lets join ur brothers for bed.

3H meets 3D & 3N

Dear boys,


First of all ammi wants to remind all of you that life & death is all in Allah's hand. Anytime, anywhere & at any age Allah can take our life. Al-fatihah to arwah atok salim, atok salim is uncle mie's father. Yaya & syaik, do u remember uncle mie? he & aunty aini, tisya n amir always comes to our house when we used to live in Adelaide, remember the time uncle mie made scones at our house? lovely & delicious wasn't it? yaya loved it soo much!. Well, arwah atok salim passed away just from difficulty of breathing at the age of 58.He has no history of chronic disease, just a mild case of diabetic. So the death was a shock to everyone..we came to visit them at nibong tebal. At that time aunty, & the children are in M'sia (aunty has some data collecting to do),but uncle was still Australia due to work-he missed the whole burial ceremony but as we know in Islam it's not proper to delay the burial of the jenazah. Our condolences to uncle mie & family.

Aunty aini still smiling even though in grieve

Later, we headed to parit buntar, alang2 di nibong tebal we opted to visit aunty niki at her parent's home.(Remember they came yesterday to our home, we had a blast didn't we?).  Mak teh sal & family from JB were also to join us. It was a sort of a last minit plan, the original plan was for them to go straight to penang , check in at Sri Malaysia & later have dinner with us at our house. But alang2... It was kind of a reunion, u see boys, baba, uncle zahid & pakcik zul are close friends since Form 1, imagine that! ammi & mak teh sal has been friends, hmm..forever ammi guess. our parents were also close friends.

Gong Xi Fa Cai

Dear boys,


Kita ni duduk di Malaysia berbilang kaum, pelbagai perayaan di raya kan. Hari ni adalah 'the year of the tiger' bagi kaum cina. Bagi kawan2 ammi berbangsa cina "Gong Xi Fa Cai" di ucapkan..Perayaan ini adalah perayaan tahun baru dan bukan perayaan keagamaan jadi tidak salah bg kita untuk mengucapkan or wishing mereka.


Boys,
Kita ni pun sebenarnya keturunan cap naga ada jugak keturunan cina belah ammi iaitu nenek ammi yg dijaga oleh org Islam masa kecik. Thats why la yaya ada rupa sang jepun ala2 chinese look sikit. Sekarang ni kita pulak dah duduk penang ni rumah 4 tingkat,pangsapuri tingkat 4 berjirankan sblh kiri  aunty berbangsa cina (belah kanan tangga ye) jd wajarlah kita wishing dia tahun baru..


Yaya & syaik,
Bila yaya & syaik dah besar nanti mungkin korang akan tergelak tengok gambar2 u all yg 'shy shy cat' nak ucap kat aunty. Tapi korang gagah kan jugak..

Aunty sebelah (err, ammi tak tau pun nama dia) mmg pemurah, dia bg kita  limau mandarin, gula2, air kotak & angpau sorang 1(rm4 sorang). Yaya & syaik sgt gembira ammi tgk waktu itu.

Selepas tu baba dpt panggilan dr kwn sekolah baba uncle Zahid nak dtg menziarah,kebetulan mereka balik kg di Perak so nak dtg PP. Ape lg bertambah lah excited semua org..Aunty Niki since kawin dgn uncle zahid terus jadik 1 of ammi's best friends. Danish anak sulung aunty sebaya yaya, Damiya tua setahun dr syaik & baby Dayana sebaya dgn baby Waidi.

Aksi-aksi yaya & danish mmg menghiburkan, dahlah baju & seluar lebih kurang colour sama. Masa yaya & danish solat asar, sekejap ammi dengar danish imam pastu yaya, pastu sama2..tak apelah, yg penting belajar solat ye..

Dalam sibuk2 ammi snap gambar, ammi terlupa amik gambar ammi & aunty Niki. To aunty Niki, nanti dtg lg ye, boleh snap gambar dgn ammi buat kenangan..InsyaAllah jika danish balik Perak lg, yaya sefamily akan dtg menziarah pula..Thank you for coming, bawak KFC lg & beli baju dr blogshop ammi..Tq again...

Yaya's version

Alkisah..
Malam td ammi membantu yaya dgn homework nye..
sambil2 ammi menyoal ttg rukun islam..

Ammi : ok yaya, apa dia 1st rukun islam?

Yaya : percaya kpd Allah

Ammi : tu rukun iman syg, rukun islam..mengucap?

Yaya: oh, err 2 shadat

(jamali shadat?)ammi dah tergelak sikit, tp kontrol lg nih

Ammi : k, no 2? solat, 5? ape?

Yaya : err, 5 rakaat

Ammi : 5 waktu la yaya, 5 rakaat kang ajaran sesat lak..

(ammi dah tergelak agak kuat)

k seterusnya no 3?berpuasa pd? bulan ape?

Yaya : haa! pd Ramadan kawan yaya kat school

Time nih ammi & baba dah tergelak-gelak, x leh nak kontrol dah

Ammi : k la smbg lg, no 4 pulak? mengeluarkan??

Yaya : yaya tau, kuarkan zaka

Ammi : ??? zakat syg bukan zaka

Huhu..baba dia dah gelak tak kuar suara, ammi pun dah smpi tahap nak terguling

Ammi : k, k, ni last. no 5? mengerjakan haji di ?

Yaya : ala ni senang, kat tabung haji la.

Kih kih kih, ammi dan baba dah tahap guling2, baba dah nak jatuh dr sofa. 

ammi dah terbaring kat lantai.huhuhu..

Yaya ni still in learning process, biasalah budak2. Don't worry,

ammi & baba dah betulkan mana yg salah, 

Tahap guling2 gelak tu sekadar hiburan pd mlm jumaat.

Yaya? blur je..join in the gelak tp tak faham ape joke nye.

Sekadar pix hiasan yaya at work
