Mini doughnuts

The other day I blog about my cupcake. Now I want to share about my mini doughnuts. Did this so many times dah..requested by Aqil, he is always hungry when he stays at home with me. Not only hungry, but thirsty too. (Saje jer kot nak mama die melayan die...huhu)

The recipe I took from the doughnut maker recipe book. Oh, have you heard about doughnut maker?? You can google it! I bought it at Curry's back in the UK when it was offered at very-very low price. So, being me who will be so tempted with low price bargain, bought it after thinking twice! Hehehe...never tried it in the UK, we kept it in the original box until we were back in KL. (memang menyoping di saat-saat akhir utk kaut segala mak nenek yg murah2 yg tidak mungkin didapati di tanahair sendiri harga yg sedemikian..)

Owh, the recipe also I think, can be used to make waffle, but one must have waffle maker, I don't have it because it was too expensive, not within my budget. Hehe. And also, the recipe can make into pancakes but never try it yet.

Here is the recipe:

8 oz of plain flour

pinch of salt

1 tbsp of baking powder

4 oz of sugar

8 oz of milk (I alter this with water since Aqil is dairy allergic)

1 medium egg ( I took the cold egg from the fridge - as advised by Nigella)

1/2 tbsp vanilla

4 tbsp vegetable oil

Methods:

Just mixed them all until smooth and creamy. Then pour on your cooking pan/doughnut maker/waffle maker. Wait 2-4 minutes until brown (depends on the degree of brown that you want). Then serve. Best serve if you dip in into melted choclate bar and sprinkle it with colored sugar.

Happy trying! :)

Lunch Anyone?

Since my husband is not around, I always had my lunch at my workstation. I am too lazy to go downstairs and buy food. Sometimes, I bought 2 heavy breakfast and I ate the 2nd breakfast near to lunch time. And now, I eat less than before, very much less! Maybe because my appetite is low whenever my husband is not around. When he is around, I will be hungry all the time....hehe

Today, I managed to eat more than usual. Yes, what an achievement I had today! Hehe..Morning, I still bought 2 set of breakfast, I ate one when I just arrived in the office and another one around 11ish o clock. Then, my friend offered me a piece of baked cheesecake. It was so yummehhh...seriously, I wish I could make one later on, just need to find the recipe, but, only me in the house right can eat dairy, so it is pointless that I seriously make one. But seriously, the cheesecake was seriously a perfect taste! Not to sweet and not too cheesy....just nice!!

Then, I went down to the C floor and wandered around to look what's happening there! hehe...what is more...window shopping!!! Then, suddenly I feel like eating KFC...then straight away went to KFC and Q. What a long wait! But worth it, the chicken was so yummehhh...it's the modified hot n spicy...I don't know what it is called, but yes...the meat...was so tender...and when you dipped it in the sauce...wahhh....the taste was like overwhelming in my tongue!! And the skin, oh yess, I seldom eat chicken skin, only KFC chicken applies!! It was so tempting when the skin is dipped with the coleslaw which has been mix with the sauce and whipped potato...walla....this is my husband recipe actually...and it turns out just perfect to my taste!

Ok, that was what I had for lunch today....;)

p/s: I bumped into two of my close buddies after tapauing KFC. It feels so nice when you meet somebody has brought colors to your life before..:)..or..errr....I just love to meet and greet friends..??

Asthma in Children

I've just read an article in the newspaper about asthmatic problem among children. I just browsed through the indicator of asthma, positive symptom of astham, prevention methods and what foods are good to prevent asthma among children.

How do parents determine if their child is asthmatic?

1. Continuous coughing during nights
2. Continuous coughing when engaging with vigorous activities (playing, laughing, crying)
3. Shortness of breath
4. Fast breathing
5. Wheezing ( whistling sound occurs when a child breath)

While the strongest risk factor that will develop asthma:

1. Family history
2. Allergy (eczema, rhinitis)
3. Exposure during infancy to high levels of antigen ( house dust mites, tobacco smoke, chemical irritants)

The article also add that asthma is unique to each person, different child will get asthma from different trigger factor. Even, asthma can be triggered by negative emotions such as fear & anxiety.

Prevention is indeed better than cure. What can we do to prevent asthma?

One of the first vaccination any child gets comes from Breastfeeding, which becomes an infant BEST prevention of asthma.

What should they eat??

A proper diet of fresh fruits, greens rich in anti-oxidant, extra virgin oil, garlic onions and oily fish rich in polysaturated fats, would help treat asthma in children. The peaditrician in the article also stated that, " yet parents ought to realise, it's the maintenance of medication from six months up to three years that affects the overall wellness of the child " - Dr Azam M Nor - Pantai Medical Center

Without I realising it, I really did my job quite well all this while. I thought I've been the worst mother in the world. At least, I breastfed the babies, now become toddlers, and still breastfed the little one and wish to continue for another 11 months at least (Ya Allah, bantulah aku melaksanakan niat ku ini...Ameen) I was really strict on my children diets when they are under 1 year old. Only me determined what should they eat. But with the 2nd child, I lost!

I am actually gets little courage to be really2 stern when dealing with babysitter. I've always get babysitters that are about my mom's age. And it is really difficult to tell things to these people where, my request might not come easy for them.

All I can do is, i kept preparing the meal for Asif, Aqil, I already let him have what he wants except, I am fully control on sugary intake. In fact, I do scold him if he wanted more than what I have given.

I do hope that I will manage to prepare a good condition room for Aqil. He doesn't want to sleep in his room, so I guess, I need to rearrange the master bedroom a bit to get cosy. (Sempitlahh Putravilla ni...)

MOT Agreement.

Know what, my condo developer has asked us to perform the MOT which is due in February 2011. If it is not done so, we have to pay fine amounting to RM10k. Ridiculous, isn't? Well I don't know what is so significant of this MOT. Some say that for the condo to have it's own JMB. However, the JMB has been structured since 2009, September. So, why is there any MOT? And still, the developer people is still residing in our condo for some management work which I don't know what. But 'mencekik' the residents' money to pay for extra parking which they took so many lots. Imagine it will cost RM180 per month just for a parking that maybe the car only resides there for 8 hours a day??? Very tyrant developer. If I knew this would happen, I won't buy this property at first! Better I save the money to buy a bigger house than this.

Coming back to MOT transfer, I wish any reader can suggest me any law firm that is trustworthy for me to engage with. Actually I already contacted one of the suggested law firm personnel, but she was like not responsive to my queries. She promised to sms me the office address but to no avail. And at first she thought that I already engaged her firm for my MOT processing and told me the same reason as I read in my condo yahoogroup. But, there is slight difference where the owner need to pay some extra money to get the MOT document out from the developer office. See, how this developer is making easy money from the purchaser.

And I am actually taking AL today to process that MOT but I feel to no success. Therefore, if my friends out there know someone that can handle MOT in a fast rate, please leave comment or contact me personnaly via my hp (sms is much prefered since it's not easy for me to be on the phone while taking care of my kids!)

The reason I lookied after the suggested firm was, they offer a good legal fees for the processing. Only around RM1k. While, when I asked the developer law firm whom I signed the S&P agreement before, they said, the legal fees would be around RM3k++, based on your purchasing price. And it shocked me a lot as that was way to expensive! More than what I've paid for the S&P itself! And then, I will need later on to engage my loan law firm again for the other MOT which I do not know when I will be able to do so! And it must have another RM3k as I experienced before with the loan law firm, they charged me an overpriced fees even they said it follows my purchasing price. They lied, because, another friend of mine, bought at a greater price than mine, the same law firm charged her lower than mine....How come????

And now, I realise, it is not easy to purchase a condo, a first hand unit when you bought from developer. But unless, it has been made clearer upfront, then, I would expect this and that to happen. However, during that time, when they promote the property, they never said so, how much more legal fees that I have to prepare. And you know what, for only 1000sqft house, I've already spend RM6k only for legal fees and will spend might be another RM6k for another legal fees for MOT. See, how easy the law firm is making money out of from only one person. They actually don't have to design the agreement from scratch, it is a standard copy and paste, then changed the title a bit. It is not that tehy have to type each of the agreement with old typewriter that will takes time. And the process take longer than expected. How come meh? It is not a free service like the government where it is understood for a single day process, woudl take months to complete and frequent follow up...(heck, I am really tired of following up...my company HR is also the same...stupid!)

Well, that is my mumblings, do not take it personally, But seriously, if you have any contacts for the law firm that is trustworthy around KL, please recommend them. I will contact them personally and asked the price.......need to do it faster...thank you all...(my budget would be around RM 1500)

The kids n I

Last night, the small one was a little bit aggressive. He slept late, so as his brother. And so as me!

I was trying to put the little one to sleep. He seemed sleepy, wiping his eyes and cranky! I switched off the lights, On the air purifier and air cond to get the room a little bit cool for sleeptime. I even asked Aqil to close the door when he finished his toilet!

Asif was aggresively sucking my milk (only bf mom know what does that mean by "aggressive") but still he was wide awake! He smiles, laughes and giggles and sometimes make jokes on me!

Then Aqil came in and asked whether Asif wanted to sleep or not, if not he asked us to join him watching BEN10! Then we went out and I put Asif on the carpet. He straight away went to his toolcar and sit on it. Pretending he want to drive the car. I started getting the washed clothes in the washer and hung them on the drier at the balcony. While Asif still sitting on his car and making noises so as I will come and pick him out of the car.

He only know how to sit on it but don't know how to get out of it. Aqil also scolded his little bro so as Asif will keep quite rather than making such annoying noise to gain attention!

Almost 9.30pm, Asif seems really tired and I managed to put him sleep just in a minute after BF. And he sleeps like baby..yes..of course he is still a baby..hehehe...Aqil joined us and he was very kind and helpful to switch off the tv and closed the door to have a darker room with little light from the air purifier.

Aqil was sobbing again, he missed his papa so much. I was a little bit touched by this but held strong, I will not tears any drop anymore. I said to him, held strong, I am always by his side no matter what happens, papa will be back soon.

I've always wonder how his papa would feel. Does he missed us like we missed him? Might be he is too occupied with activities and jobs that he loves so much??

Our life is now difference. I really hope he did not change his job. Still doing his old job and his foot still loves to be at home with us. His dream job has actually taken him away from me (eventually) and the kids. He spent less time with us and always got grumpy because we make him late for work.

Being away for a little while like this is much awaited for me. I feel more relaxed and Aqil will not get scolded by his papa whenever he makes us late for work.

This is the price I have to pay when I have a husband working diligently for a company that did not fulfill my dream job. I am not happy but my husband is happier now. This is the sacrifice I've made eventhough I know, I won't get the satisfaction that I've always dream of.

Child Abuse

Someone in the office just sent me a video showing a babysitter was showering a toddler.

I was so damned SHOCKED!! Then, straight away thought of my children. How were they being treated at their temporary HOME.

Everyday, since day 1 I sent my kids to babysitter, I've always pray hard to Allah, seek his guidance and bless for me to proceed with my decision. All this while, I am the one who made decision for whom will take care of my children. And it is really hard, because, whatever circumstances happened next will be on me, I will be the one to be blamed for! Not my husband!

When I first got my first child, I did not enjoy very much my confinement period. I need to think hard to find babysitter while I was taing care my newborn. I asked everyone that I know that maybe bumped into any babysitter nearby our house. Luckily, I found my 1st babysitter and she was willingly accept my Aqil. At first, she just want to give a try, and after 2-3 weeks, she has decided to take care him until I went for studies.

Coming back from studies, she already has two kids under her care and she does not want more than that. That was very unlucky for me, and we find a kindy that offer daycare services. I am quite frustrated since the services was not up to my expectation, and it was way below my expectation. First day at school, Aqil got bruises on his cheek, under his eyes. I was about to cry but I kept silent! Even the teacher did not know what was actually happen? And they thought Aqil got it from us!

Never in my life, I put my hand on Aqil or bang him on any surfaces that make him got bruises here and there. It is not I am spoiling my kids but I am only using my hard tone when I scolded them. Physical scolding is really not my style.

Then, when Asif's time came, it was another hard time, the first babysitter was really nice, but unfortunately, she wanted to move to a better place, then I need to find another babysitter on my own. At that time, my husband was not around and I almost send Asif to a full-packed nursery with very minimal facilities for babies. At that time, Asif was only 4 months old.

My previous babysitter (Aqil's) introduced me with the current babysitter. I just give a try even I know, she is also taking care of her sister's grandchildren. Even there's always less here and there, but I have to close one eye and accept it as long as my Asif is physically attached, no broken arm or leg, no bruises here and there. I really hope my babysitter love Asif like her own grandson. So, she would not dare to abuse him.

I always think of how a human become inhuman when dealing with such little cutie kids. They are just kids, innocent but smart....

"Ya Allah, lindungi lah anak-anakku semasa mereka di bwh jagaan pengasuh2 mereka, lembutkanlah hati pengasuh2 mereka untuk menghadapi kerenah2 anak-anakku...amin ya rabbal alamin.."

Tertido Punya Pasal

Cadangnye nk membelasah buat doh dgn breadmaker smlm. Tapi akhirnya tewas di kamar tido. Tak sedar, igtkan nk 'nap' barang 5-10 minit, rupanya terlajak sampai 3 jam! Sedar2 dah pukul over 12 tgh mlm, lampu kt living hall pon xtutup...kipas pun masih berpusing pantas...

Dengan mata mengantuk, pun kluar lah pergi tutup kipas dan lampu kt luar...turunkan susu Asif buat bekal esok pagi, simpan semula hotdog yg dah di'unfreeze' yg konon2 nya nk buat pizza lah mlm td...

Nak minum air..tp malas...sanggup lyn mls drpd isi minyak sbb nnt mlm confirms minyak akan disedut kluar oleh sikecik Asif yg cumel! Tapi mengantuk melebihi segalanya...terus sambung tido..(manalah badan xkurus kering...kurang minum air...xsempat nk kembang pun!)

Oh, plan asal jugak, setelah bebudak tido, igt nk mem'proses' sofa yg tak kene corak tu. Semalam sempat 'proses' sebahagian tp nampak cacat dgn 2 org kanak2 ria bermain keliling sofa..yes, solution walau temporary (mungkin jadi permanent la kot...ehehe) nampak menarik di mata...even Aqil ckp, mama beli sofa baru ke??? Hehe..pdhal sofa yg tidak baru tetapi disarungkan baru...

Cost?? Hmm...RM32 inggit jer...(Kain + safety Pin)...jimat belanja...drpd nk buat cover baru yg mungkin mencecah RM700...Baik bli sofa baru kat cavenzi kn!

Disebabkan tertido punya pasal, sume project have been delayed!

Cuppy Cake

Yes! I made it! One step ahead..yess..I made it!

Know what, it has been so long that I aiming to make cupcake mini size for my kids. And last Friday, I took a leave and went to search for the mini size cake cup. I managed to find it but it was sold at bulk, so I just bought it!

And today, I tried my luck to make it when Asif asleep. At first I wanted to take out my mixer but thinking of this is only a trial version. So I just used the egg whisk to mix the batter.

Guess what, although I don't have self raising flour as per the recipe but it turns out just fine when I just used the baking powder + plain flour. I made only half of the recipe, all measurements were halves and used only 1 medium sized egg. It turns out into 23 mini cupcakes!

It turns out crunchy a bit and I will try more when using self raising flour and see the difference!

p/s: Asif already spread out the yummines of the cupcake to Mr Carpet!!*wink*wink

Isteri Permata Hati Suami

Hehe...tajuk best tak?? Best jgn xbest. Sebenarnye byk dah buku2 dipasaran ttg bagaimana seorg isteri nk jaga suaminya. Jadi, xperlu risau lah suami tu cari lain bila sampai umur nya 40. Org lelaki slalu ckp, life's begin at 40. Hehe, ade jugak org ckp, lelaki pd umur 40 tu adalah titik permulaan hidupnya..ni mengambil kisah Nabi yg diberi wahyu dan diangkat menjadi Rasul pd umur 40thn.

Sebenarnye, seblum ceramah bermula tu, akak ni cerita ttg seorg sahabat die yg berkahwin dgn wanita Morocco (maghribi). Akak ni cite bagaiman wanita2 Maghribi ni menjaga kecantikan utk suami semata-mata. Mereka tidak bekerja tp mereka turut berpendidikan tinggi. Mereka kluar belajar di serata tpt tp sebenarnye utk mencari suami. Selepas berkahwin, mereka akan taat setia hanya pd suami dan suami sgtlah seronok sbb melihat wanita cantik berhias utk nya di rumah hari2.

Akak ni sambung lg mengenai sahabat perempuan die pulak, tinggal sekejap dgn Morrocan wife ni, and sempat Morrocan ni ajar tips2 camne nk kulit licin (cabut bulu kaki!). Camne nk trampil cantik di hadapan suami!

Saya tersenyum dgr cerite akak ni sbbnya kwn die jd agent cr jodoh utk lelaki2 yg inginkn wanita Morroco. hehe.

Saya ttp redha, saya bukan Morrocan, saya xcantik spt mereka yg putih gebu mulus ape lg...name it. Hehe..tp cerita akak tu telah mendetikkn sesuatu utk diri saya sendiri. Akak tu turut cerite, Morrocan tu sgt pandai memasak! Jadi semua tu saya tahu, mungkin belum terlaksana sepenuhnye!

Wanita bekerja pon buleh jaga suami dgn baik! Percayalah! Sampai suami pon xhingin nk tgk perempuan lain! Saket hati kn kalau tetibe suami puji perempuan lain cantik dpn anda? Yer, saya pnah mengalaminya! Huh, pengakuan berani mati! Heheh..

Jadi 2 perkara penting utk ikat suami.

1) Jaga ketrampilan Diri kita. Kelihatan cantik utk suami bukan utk org lain. Jgn kt luar, kemain melaram, kt rumah, kain batik jer...dgn t shirt gedoboh...

2) Masak yg sedap2. Walau pon mknn tu kita xmkn sgt..cubalah blajar utk msk utk suami...tp sambil2 tu...mskkn jugak mknn kita mkn...dan ajak suami rasa sama...;)

Mari kita sama2 perbaiki diri utk jadi isteri yg terbaik utk suami kita!

Ceramah Hijrah

Semalam company kesayangan ada buat Ceramah bersempena Maal Hijrah. Mujur ade sorg akak ni forwardkan email yesterday, kalau tak, mmg dah lupa. So, pegila dgn akak ni. Alhamdulillah ada teman, seronok nk pergi.

Sampai2, xramai yg sampai lagi. Dapatla amik tempat kt depan sekali, dpt tgk rupe penceramah dr jauh. Dlm hati, owh..xde la handsome mana..handsome lg hubby ai...ehehe...(harusla puji laki sendiri kan!).

Jadi, ceramah pon bermula, seronok betul dgr org yg tinggi ilmu agama ni berckp. Memang penuh penghayatan saya mendengar sekalian isi ceramah. Konon bwk buku nota utk catit sesuatu. Alih2, sdap nyer mendgr sehingga saya rs sedikit terganggu bila org keliling dok bertegur sapa sesama mereka semasa penceramah sdg berckp.

Dan tidak tahu mengapa, mungkin saya agak sensitive atau ape2 ajelah..spjg ceramah, penceritaan ustaz2 tersebut ttg sirah Nabi S.A.W, membuatkan saya rs terharu dan sebak. Seolah2 saya kenal rapat dgn Nabi S.A.W sehingga kan saya merasakan bertuahnya mereka2 yg hidup pd ms hayat Nabi S.A.W. Dapat bersua muka dgnnya dan dpt terus menghayati Islam drpdnya.

Saya sebenarnye hampir utk menangis. Saya terlalu rindu pd Nabi S.A.W mungkin. Saya terigt ada satu lagu nasyid yg mengisahkn kerinduan hamba Allah kepada Rasul-Nya. Saya igt lagi, setiap kali menyanyikan lagu tersebut...mmg hati ni terasa terharu dan sebak bila menghayati perjuangan Nabi S.A.W dlm menegakkn agama Islam di muka bumi ini..

Atau, mungkin saya terlalu drama??? Harusla saya belajar cekalkan hati supaya tidak mudah menangis lagiii dalam apa jua keadaan....INSHAALLAH...:)

SuperWoman

A week, I've been a superwoman based on my own definition. Last Friday, was the most impactful day in my life.

Number One,
I was given a bad news by HR which made me burst into tears in front of the HR personnel. I was so frustrated with what had happened and the personnel can't help me since the problem is with the other section which I've already approached and the reason was something that I don't know what to say anymore. I believe, must be something wrong with the system that they obligate to follow. And actually, I am tired to follow up on this as they always works reactively! Where the practice of the Be Proactive that introduced by HR during our orientation program???? WHERE?

Number Two;
There was an event at work that I need to manage. Well, be the shopper to the shopping list. I estimated the expenses would be around RM375ish and ended up, we only spend RM248.30.COST SAVING is there!! Yeay!! The event went well and all the food except the packet food all finish. Many were also happy with the cakes we bought for the birthday boys n girls.

Number Three;
I rushed home to go to night market. The fridge is empty, nothing can be turn into lovely dishes. So after Asar solah, I grabbed my shopping trolley and off to the market and quickly done the shopping. After about 30 minutes, clock was showing 6.30pm, then I finished my last bought, rushed to pick up Aqil at his school, then to Asif's. We reached home almost 7pm.

Number Four;
We only eat bread that night since I was too tired to cook anything after the hectic day on that day.

Got to dance Asif!

Whenever he heard the Pororo theme song...he will start standing and shake his bum bum...hahaha..so cute this little munchkin of mine...

Glad he is mine......muahhhhh...:)

Hujan...

Drop...drop..drooopppppppppppppdop..doppppppppp..

"Eh..hujan atau air terjun dr tingkat 15??"..hati terdetik....

Jam digital menunjukkn waktunya...5.59 am...

"Jam ni cepat 12 minit...awal lagi..." hati terus berkata-kata...

Lantas selimut ditarik...anak kecil disebelah turut terbangun, celik mata...menyondol ke mama...lalu mama memberi susu badan...sejurus selesai melegakn tekak yg kekeringan...terus kembali ke alam mimpi dgn enaknya...

"Teetttt...teett....teetttt..." Snoozer telefon bimbit berbunyi...

Jam menunjukkan waktunya...6.09 am...

Budak2 masih lena diulit mimpi indah...apa agaknya yang mereka mimpi kan...adakah pergi bermain snowboard di Loch Lomond?? Atau sedang bersuka ria di Disneyland pada musim Summer??

Hujan masih turun tidak berhenti di luar...Alangkah nyamannya jikalau hari ni adalah hari cuti...dpt mama sama2 sambung tido dengan anak2....

Hasil peristiwa di atas...

Hari ni masuk opis lambat...Jam 8.30 am...haruslah merah timetrack hari ni!!..Duhhhhhhhh

Selowww nyer!

I'm using one of the famous broadband in the country. However, I rarely used it at home...(What a waste!)..I or we normally checked our emails and read blogs from my mobile phone...(sanggup jer baca tulisan kecik2 tu..) One of the reason is, the reception at our level...is somehow not good normally...there are few locations in the house that get good signal...Another reason is, cannot find good time to open up laptop and log in as the little mischief will interfer as he wish...sort of he is also want to do something with the computer...Afraid of the laptop might broken, therefore, I or we normally log in when they both sleeping...and being me...when they sleep...I feel sleepy too...(if you breastfed your baby, you will know what I mean...kan darlings??)

Hah...today...I managed to get good signal..but something still not right. My mozilla is not working. Now I know why recently the internet was so damned slow..(tahap xley sabar dah ni...mcm xley hidup la dgn internet selow melow ni....)..it is the Mozilla the problemaker..And being me...who is seldom open up computer to see updates..then, I don't know how to rectify this problem...then, I open using IE..the old one...I tried to update to a new version..but couldn't...hah...how come I be so IT illiterate...try to download IE8, successful..but when I try to execute it, something prompted saying it could not locate some files...hmm...so..nevermind..then..just let it be...anyway...this broadband is going to be terminated any sooner from now...

Corrode

I just spent 5 working days on technical training. It was a classroom session. The trainer gave us quiz at the start and we redo it again at the end of the training.

How well I perform the quiz?

Well, being me..blank headed..haha...I think..the first test...was worst ever! yes! Even it was an open book and the questions were quite straight forward..I was not able to answer all within the given 30 minutes time. Hah! That was really embarrassing! Being a MSc graduate, I should have answer everything correctly! And the retest...I even had to ask the trainer on the basic, very basic formula to calculate the answer...Oh man...that was really...really...embarrassing!

How the hell I forget everything I've learnt before?

Must have lots of nerve broke up during my delivery??...Ha Ha..That's make me forgetful sometimes??...Can I blame that?..Can I??...

Or, is it because I haven't practice any of the knowledge and skill I gained from Msc in my daily work??...Quite frustrating right??..I studied the most hardest subject but I am practicing the most simplest subject...better I don't go through all the hassle to learn mathematics...algebra...fluid dynamics..heat transfer...physics...etc...etc...I should have only took the social science instead...hmmph...

What to do...life is not always be the way you always want it to be...right??

So..what I have to do now???

Learn to live with it!!..:)

Happy Birthday Asif!

He's already ONE year old! Yes! I've managed to give him fully breastmilk for 12 months without fail! Alhamdulillah...alhamdulillah...alhamdulillah...:)

What can he does now?

Able to stand without support.
Really...I mean...really cheeky and cheerful!
Possessive...yes..different from Aqil when at his age...
Loud!..Very loud!
Heavy but I think he is bit small for his age...can't remember quite well how was Aqil back then!
Can say 'papa', 'mama', 'dah' etc...I think this one follows his bro...talkative! He he...
'Kuat' jealous with his bro...

Enough sayings..

What I know, I am more in love with him as he grows..cute smiley face with little dimple on both cheek...same like Aqil....brothers...Love to see them 'rebut' toys...haha..

Happy 1st birthday Darling Asif!!..Muah2...:)
