Picture Perfect


Their only defects are that they are missing the 'Sleep' and 'Mute' buttons. Wldn't that be great?

Mama and Abah want to eat...press 'Sleep' button.


Yay it worked! Peaceful mealtime = Happy parents



Mama and Abah want to talk among ourselves...press 'Mute' button..

press...press...press...uh-oh...'Mute' button doesnt work! 

So on and on she goes...


But Mama and Abah love you both still!

Thank God for slings...

Kangaroo-carrying with a pupsik sling

Coz Mama can still do her work and still be with you!

Should we already start her on solids?

Umaira is already at 4 mths now and she has been exclusively breastfed, alhamdulillah. I had wanted to go on till she's 6 mths, but now Abah and I decided that maybe we should start her on solids already. Why? Let's check against the cues to look for when a baby is ready for solids:

•Head control. Your baby needs to be able to keep his head in a steady, upright position. Checked!

•Sitting well when supported. Even if he's not quite ready for a highchair, your baby needs to be able to sit upright to swallow well. Checked!

•Significant weight gain. Most babies are ready to eat solids when they've doubled their birth weight (or weigh about 15 pounds) and are at least 4 months old. 3.48 at birth, now 5++ Checked!

Chewing motions. Your baby's mouth and tongue develop in sync with his digestive system. To start solids, he should be able to move food to the back of his mouth and swallow. Chew almost anything that she puts in her mouth..Checked!

•Growing appetite. He seems hungry — even with eight to ten feedings of breast milk or formula a day. Super Checked!

•Curiosity about what you're eating. Super Duper Checked!

Hint..hint...Is that a curious-look enough everyone??

Very non-halal?!

Have you seen this...


We saw it at Sunway. It took me and Abah by surprise I must say. I mean, what do you feel, as Muslim, when you read it? As for us, we thought it was somewhat offensive.

Very non-halal?? What do you mean by that?! It sounds like they are making fun of our halal term which I assume whoever came up with this thought they are super creative, NOT.

It just shows the shallowness and narrow-mindedness of knowledge in respecting others' religion.

~ My lil sepet angel love to play tongue sticking ~

Its been dusty here. Only 2 entries so far this month! lol!

Actually had quite a few things I thought I would post, but whenever I told the stories to Abah first, it feels like retelling the same story all over again and I think its pointless as the only one who reads my blog that I'm aware of is Abah. hmm..

Anyway will just post random pics on the events that happened. For keepsake purpose.


God I look so fat in that pic!
Anyway we were waiting at the airport for my younger brother. He's working offshore...so its like 6 mths at sea then a month home.

Can you spot lil Umaira? We did not bring her pram so we ingeniously use the airport trolley as a 'tandem stroller'...heheh 

Then we had Swensen's for late dinner..

We love Swensen's but we just do not love Swensen's at T2. Service was poor.



Amira sure is loving the attention!


And Umaira is off in her lala land...
