Ramadhan Mubarak 1431 Hijrah

Oh my...

I have a lot of pending entries, too many stories to pour but the busy-ness is killing me. Not really hehe but really really busy. Ramadhan time supposed to be relaxing to me but seems like everything need to be done in time.

Anyway MrComot is ok already yeay! Alhamdulillah....

And it's already half of the fasting month but I still didn't write anything about it!

Well, Ramadhan this year is pretty much the same only that this is my first time celebrating it as mother. Nothing change, still break the fast at parents in law, still didn't cook anything ha ha ha. I don't know I should be happy or sad because MrComot just want to eat bread with butter and jam for iftar. Happy because I don't have to wake up early and prepare the food and sad because I don't get the chance to show off my skill, maybe? Hahaha.

So that's what we are having for now, bread-butter-jam-dates-boxed drinks. But I think one of the days I want to break the normality, I want to eat spicy sambal sardines with fluffly telur dadar and nasi putih PANAS PANAS! Hmm..maybe next week.

Actually deep down I think both of us want to eat nasi (because MrComot do eat nasi when we were at my hometown last year) but basically both of us just to lazy to face the hassle to prepare the dish. Yes I know I'm the wife and I should do it by myself. Excuseeeee meeeee! Takde masa ok. Nuff said.

And what else about Ramadhan? Oh ya..didn't manage to do terawikh yet :( Partly because we reach home around 10PM already and partly I'm quite lazy and tired. All I want to do after reach home is lie on the bed and sleep :(

My milk production is maintained at 10oz. Sometimes I get 8oz..depends but I pump 1 time only nowadays, lunch time. I wanted to write a single entry about breastfeeding during Ramadhan but since I don't really have the time, I will just summarize it here lah k. Another thing you need to consider is the quality of the milk (since we don't eat during the day). I browse around and found few tips of how to enrich your breast milk. Like usual, drink plenty of water, milk and don't miss sahur. But one tip I really like to try is blend almond with grapes (some kind like nut milk grape flavoured). It's said full of nutrients and protein and at the same time to power up the volume. I already bought the almond and grapes but have yet to blend it.

So how's your Ramadhan so far? I hope it brings all the good vibes to your life and will carry on even after it ends.

By the way, below is an array of Zahra Elena's pictures. She's all jolly and playful last night that I have to force her to sleep at 12AM! Geram betul. We off all the lights and stay quietly pretending to be sleeping but she still tossing her body here and there, doing her pumping action and some slide stunts. Sabar je lah.

Wondering what mommy's doing

Ohhhh taking picture. Already aiming at my camera (she wants to grab it)

Salivating over the camera

Ready...booooooo

Chakkkkkkk!!! Mommy cepat2 lari takut dia amik haha

Okla..hopefully not too late to wish you guys Happy Ramadhan and wish all of us will be blessed in this holy month ;)

Budak Tak Puasa

Feverish Daddy

My big baby is down with fever, a nasty one that I have to take emergency leave today. I never seen him in this situation, feverish and lie flat on the bed, closing his eyes for more than 24hours with minimal food. The only food he takes is the kurma, cincau, some shredded chicken and bread. Itu pun I have to suap him. Other than that he just drink some water and sleep.

He said no headache or throbbing-ness, only he feels so weak, hot and bone-pain.

This is my first time taking care of a sick man and I'm pretty clueless what to do as I always see him active and strong. I just keep on sponging him and try to feed as much as he can.

Hopefully nothing serious. Will go to the hospital if the fever still there tomorrow.

On the other note, taking care of a sick person with a clingy infant is very challenging. Zahra cries everytime I'm out her sight - when I want to check on MrComot in the room. I don't want to bring her in, takut jangkit x pasal2. Hmmmm how to be a housewife like this. Seriously it' s tough.

Anyway get well soon sayang :(

Just another Monday blues

I miss my blog so much but I couldn't allocate few more minutes to write a decent update. Toooo busy bee since the Ramadhan started :(

Anyway below is my princess this morning, in her slumberland before I woke her up, in full bed-time suit hehehe. This is her all-time favourite sleeping pose - arms wide open.



She was soooo good last weekend, all giggling and entertaining. She learnt a few tricks on crawling and was excited all day long trying the moves. Kids, they grow up so fast. I so want to be full time hwife so that I can be with her all the time. Not possible for now..so wait up little one, save few acts for mommy tonight ok.

*sniffles*

The Sweet Escape

Parenthood definitely taking a toll on us. Up till now when people ask maybe we can start planning for the second one I am like, oh pleasee...I'm still tired and not settled yet. I''m not complaining, but that's how I feel - tired and not ready.

After half a year, we decided to give both of us a break and went out berpoya-poya without little one yesterday! I already planned the leave and all and coincidentally she had fever but fortunately it's totally gone on Sunday. Else this plan will be canceled. Thank you Zahra for giving mummy and daddy this chance :D

I am so excited that I already plan what to wear, what to eat, etc etc. Feels like when we were courting those days.

So first thing we did, something that we are unable to do for quite sometimes, breakfast at kopitiam! I mean, it's impossible right, to lug budak kecik tu early in the morning. I rather be in bed with her and golek2 :D

After send Zahra to her babysitter we stopped at Chawan Kopitiam in Bangsar and had this:

Toasted bread with butter and kaya + half-boiled omega eggs + kopi kemamam (my first official coffee after gave birth!)

And nasik lemak bungkus with soto ayam.

Unfortunately we arrived quite late (almost 11am), because it was hard for me to leave little one at the bbsitter's house :( . So lepak-lepak, pegang2 tangan, surf internet (Chawan has free WIFI and it's fast!) and then shoot to Midvalley for movie time!

Despicable Me in 3D :D

This is our first movie together!! After like, a year? Haha exaggerating. Our last movie is G-Force and that was when I am 5 months pregnant I think, and that's it, no more movie for us up til now! Oh I had one in between with my girlfriend, Shani but MrComot none! Poor him.

We were so excited that we even self timer this pic in GSC hehehe..

I bought this new skirt purposely for this outing! But it looks so dull :( Better stick to jeans next time.

In 3D glasses

Browse some shops......

Stopped by Gelatossimo for 3 scoops of gelatos

And it's already almost 5PM!!! How fast time flies. We barely do anything! *sigh*

It's a relieved somehow get to do something together without have to worry about Zahra but I miss her at the same time, especially while watching the movie, ada scene budak kecik comel, mesti teringat my little tottila! :D

So that goes our first break. MrComot said we should do this every month! Haha I don't know..maybe once in a 3 months is enough for me. But maybe because I get to go out every Friday (lunch break *ahem* *ahem*) whilst he's in the office all the time.


I rather take a day off and cuddle the whole day :D
