Parents Room @ Chitta Mall

Still about Chitta Mall :)

We found this parents room when we were wandering around. It's located at the first floor, well you'll find it easily because Chitta Mall tak besar sgt, just follow the directory. We drop by before Maghrib to let Zahra play there and to BF Emir.

Small playground in the parents room. Zahra happily conquering the area as there are not many kids there. In fact, ada sorang je that time.

 The toilet, below 6 years only.

For parents with kids. Looks clean, most probably because it's still new. You know la the condition of most public toilet, I really don't get it how the seat can have footprints? Kalau nak cangkung, masuk tandas cangkung la kan..jangan la cangkung at toilet duduk *sigh*

Wash your hands! Bagus..we have to teach them about hygiene from the young age. 

Nursing Room

 It's shared though. Can fit 3 mommies/babies at the same time. I find it too crowded and not privacy enough. I prefer nursing room in OU and The Curve. They have 3 nursing rooms, so 3x3 can fit 9 mommies..wow, that's a lot of hungry babies at one time hehe.

The diaper changing area

It looks nice on overall but maybe because it's new. Hopefully they can maintain the condition in the future. The best parents room I've been so far will be the one in OU. Siap ada TV area for the kids ok! Not that we will love lounging there to watch TV but it will help to kill the boredom for the daddy while waiting for mommy to breastfeed the baby. And the nursing room siap ada buaian. That one I wonder who's going to use it. Like, for real? I've tried it once on Zahra, just for the sake of trying, but it was very weird haha. I mean, buaian in a mall? 

Oh ya, they got bigger playground for kids somewhere else but we didn't look out for it because it was a brief stop only and already time for dinner. 

Meatworks @ Chitta Mall

My MIL invited us for dinner to celebrate my birthday and I have to decide where we want to eat. Naturally I have no idea what to eat or where to eat because with two kids in hands, rasa malassss sangat nak keluar. Nak pegi The Curve or Sunway Damansara, aduhh boring jugak. That's our playground now because it's the nearest. And when my MIL said Chitta Mall, I was thinking, finally! Haha..at least we get to eat somewhere new. This is my first time checking out the new mall.

Anyway, nothing to shout about the mall, it's not that big but cozy enough for parents with kids to wander off. Eatineries pun OK, got chillis, chawan, wondermilk (the delicious cupcake), san fran coffee, subang seafood (we discovered this later, they have big aquariums of live seafood just like other big seafood restaurant, but in a mall!), etc. 

Since we don't know where to eat, we just walk around until we found Meatworks and ha! I haven't tried Meatworks, so Meatworks it is!

They provide varies of cuts where u can buy it freshly from their butchery kitchen or order the cooked one from the menu.

The entrance

First thing first, suap the kids first. Rule of thumb to have a peaceful eating out dinner, make sure your kids are full. Hungry man is angry man, right.

I made garlic pasta with eggs for Zahra. I still find her too young to eat outside food, with all the MSG and whatnot so we always bring homemade food whenever we are out. Sometimes I bagi jugak outside food, depends on what we are eating.

 Rice + chicken + pumpkin puree for the handsome boy.

Which he lovessssssssss it so much!

We brought the frozen puree, I already defrost it before we were out. Then normally I just ask for hot water for me to reheat the food but Meatworks nampak mcm proper so I ask them to microwave it for 30seconds. Haha.. When you are a mom, anything pun boleh. Anyway I am thinking to buy the proper Thermos for his outing food so we can heat it at home and keep it warm all the way.

Had french onion soup with Gruyere cheese for starter.

 And shared Waldorf salad with everyone. They use bluecheese dressing which I find it a tad sour.

 MrComot's lambshank

 My BIL's ribs.

 My MIL's milk fed lamb

 My sirloin on a bed of vegetables and potato puree (or mashed potato) but I find it too fine like a puree - macam Emir's food!

 The vege underneath

 Bestfriend sangat dengan daddy! I notice that Zahra is very manja with MrComot lately. She's having my MIL's corn on the cob.

 While Zahra 'gang' with daddy, Emir chose mommy! Mummy's new man!

Overall, we had a good time there. Nice ambiance, spacious enough for us with kids (now that's what matter) and clean. However, the food is so-so to me. I had better lamb cutlets in Ayer's Rock and my sirloin pun ok je la..

My MIL bought a cute cake full of fruits from Hokkaido's Bakery (new bakery shop in Dataran Sunway, KD) but we cancel the blow-candle event because Zahra fell asleep!!! OMG, this is event of the life because she will never never never sleep outside in the stroller. She didn't have her usual nap on the afternoon and by 6PM she requesting for 'bak', a sign that she is sleepy but we already nak keluar time tu. I dah agak she will fall asleep earlier (instead of at 1AM) but I don't expect it to be that soon and in the stroller?

And the way dia tertido pun funny. She was eating the corn with half-closed eyes and tersengguk-sengguk on the baby chair! Ha ha ha.. knowing her, this is very funny.

I asked "Zahra..Zahra sleepy yer? Tidur dalam stroller ok?"

And she nods!

*pengsan*

Selalunya dia akan mengamuk or menangis tanak sleep in the stroller.

So I cleaned her up, MrComot carries her for a while and then put her in the stroller and ZAM! She snores to Disneyland.

Since she is sleeping and Emir behaves well, we took a slow walk in Chitta Mall, tried Stickhouse Icecream (will write about this later), visited the bazaar and out from there around 10PM.

Overall it is a nice place..but I don't find it appealing enough. Maybe because my favourite shops are not there. What favourite shop pun I don't know hehe. But seriously, I think I am getting older and slower. I prefer to be at home and cuddling with my munchkins than wandering in the mall. Or maybe I'm just too tired.

Weekend Wonders #1 : Bestfriend Forever

My Charming 8-months Boy

I knowww...I've been neglecting to update about Emir and he's 8-months old already! 

Ok, lets see what he's up to at 8-months. 

1. Very very very manja! Seriously..I thought Zahra is manja, but he's more manja than Zahra! He loves to be cuddled and carried by me and will cry whenever he sees me walking away from him. There is a time when I was feeding him, then I had to go to the toilet so MrComot took over the job and he cries, refused to eat from MrComot's hand, boleh? Ketap2 mulut and menangis until I came back and when I feed him, he continue eating like usual.
2. Love pumpkin very much! His diet pretty much varied nowadays. He had tried rice, barley, pumpkin, broccoli, baby peas, carrots, apple, apricot, pear and avocado. Oh ya, he hates avocado.
3. Eat a lot, like a lot! Maybe sebab boy kut. But drink milk very little at the babysitter. He prefers direct feeding and can you imagine he just drink average 3oz during the day at babysitter's. On a good day, he will drink up to 6oz. Sigh...
4. Has 2 teeth lower teeth now. Ok pasal gigi I find it funny. Only 1 tooth come out, about a month ago, then last night, I just discovered he got another teeth! Macam Zahra, terus keluar sepasang. So can you imagine him with ONE tooth for a month. Such a funny sight.
5. Can sit steadily, crawl and standing with support. Orang tua cakap bertatih. He loves to pull himself up by himself. So I don't have to hold his hand to entertain him. He will try to stand anywhere he could sendiri-sendiri. I just have to watch him in any case dia nak jatuh.
6. Dah 'eksyen' now. Bila berdiri je lepas-lepas tangan,. Ewaahhhhh macam la boleh kan. Then berdebukk jatuh. But he can control it already, so he will fall on the bums, not flat to the front or backwards.
7. Adore the big sister very much! He will 'try to join' Zahra whatever and whenever. Zahra tengah main iPad, Zahra tengah main masak-masak, Zahra tengah main puzzle, Zahra tengah main doll, Zahra tengah baca buku with mommy, etc. I think it's normal kut, for the little brother to adore the bigger sibling. I think he just want to join in. When Zahra stop playing and give the toys to Emir, Emir won't bother about it anymore. Another thing, Emir will laugh tergedik-gedik when Zahra jump, or making actions for him. Gelak gila-gila that I have to hold him time, kalau tak, boleh jatuh. This really amuse me - the sibling relationship.
8. A very easy baby to handle. If I used to say Zahra is an easy baby, Emir is easier. Maybe because he is more manja, so all I have to do is cuddle and be next to him.
9. Loves to smile. Has a total different character than Zahra. He's the type yg charming and happy go lucky. While Zahra macam sombong-sombong sikit hehehe.
10. Still co-sleeping with mommy. My plan to sleep separately macam tak jadi je hehe. In fact BOTH babies still co-sleeping with me. And we still sleep in the confinement room, can you believe it? Because it's easier to access and by night, I don't have the energy to climb upstairs and all I want to do is hit the sack.

Well, that's all that I can remember. Gotta update again. Love this lad so much!

3-series first entry :)

I miss my blog so soo sooo sooooo much!!!

Hye everyone!! I'm here alive and kicking and I hate myself for not updating. I am so busy and tired up to a point that I'm tired of being tired...

So I was like "OK, that's it! Am going to update my blog! Tiredness, shooooo away!"

Haha so that's explain this entry.

On the other note, I am another year older! I'm entering the THREE-series and it doesn't feel scary like I used to imagine but yeah, it will be nicer if I stuck at 20s haha kidding! Age doesn't really matter, as long as everything is fine, I am happy with it :)

To break the long hiatus, I present this blog my current work-place and it sucks to the core. I hate every single sight of it! But at the same time, I can't bring myself to tidy it up a bit, or beautify it, or whatever. I just feel like throwing everything behind and fly to Maldives sipping pina colada under the breezy coconut tree with beautiful aqua view on the sandy beach. But reality is, I have to face this eye-sore space everrrrryyyday! It even invades my dream, damn it!

Haha..enough of the whining and swearing, just want to zing my typical office worker with a little drama.

Anyway, I have so many things to pour on and will try my best to update daily. Again, I miss crapping so much! Hope you guys have a good day! :)
