My Sunday Morning

Weekend is lazy day for us. We'll wake up really late, anytime we feel like to. But not that late anymore because we have Zahra now. Have to bathe and feed her. I used to woke up after 1 those days, straight away to lunch hehe. Anyway, I had girls outing on the Sunday at MidV and was very excited about it. We promised to show our face at 1130 am.

And it was 930am when suddenly MrComot woke me up

"Sayang bangun..dah 930 and jom breakfast"

I was a bit upset because I want to sleep and just don't get it why suddenly he wants me to have breakfast. Ok maybe he's hungry or what so I opened my eyes and ask

"Hmm sayang nak makan apa?"
"Me dah buat breakfast for you"

I was like..what? So I quickly sit and forced myself to be sober so that I don't get anything wrong.

"Hmm ok..why u make breakfast for me?"
"Because you nak pergi jumpa your girlfriends, makan sikit so tak lapar sangat, you need the energy"

OK. Now I am really like, WHATTT?

And look what he made for me:

Soft-boiled egg complete with salami, bread and salad.

It is...soooo thoughtful of him! *sniffles*

Since the camera is there, I took pictures of my little princess sleeping. She is so lasak nowadays that her sleeping position keep on changing through the night. Not to mention she also like to toss her body once in a while in her sleep and causing us this heart attack, in case she crawl and fall of the bed!


This is before I eat my breakfast


And this is after I finished it. Terkejut tengok2 dah macam ni haha.


To my hubby, I know I can never thank you enough, but thank you for being so thoughtful on Sunday morning ;)

I'm on unlimited 3G!

Before I continue my rambling, just another rambling here. I decided to put watermark in all my pictures tomorrow because I feel some sense of ownership and will be pissed if somebody copy it without any credit. And today I changed my mind. Watermarking is so time-consuming and hell, suka hati lah siapa nak amik gamba tu! As long as I know what is mine, it's fair enough ehehe. I take pride in pictures I took, so sometimes I think I need the watermark, but sometimes I feel it ruined the pictures. Hmm so indecisive.

Anyway, MrComot and I went to Blue Cube PJ in PJ Oldtown to change my account from ala carte 3G to unlimited data plan. We went there because few of my colleague told me they are fast with no-fuss. I don't have to do extra work (staff verification and such), just show the passcard and I am entitled to the package.

What I want to shout here is, Blue Cube PJ is rocks! OMG, they are super fast and easy and attentive that stunned me right on the dot. I also caught by their latest ticketing system (or maybe it has been long there but I never knew about it). We were welcomed by this GIANT phone-like screen where you have to enter your mobile number and enter and then a numbering ticket will come out and wait for it to be called. It is A-W-E-S-O-M-E! You don't have to tell the counter girl anymore what's ur number and any details because they already got it the moment you enter it for the ticket. I wish I take a picture of this giant phone but I was too stunned and it shying me away from taking out my camera. And the counter also very fast. I fill up one form and she enter it in the PC and done! The total experience was like 2 minutes! *pengsan*

Since we finished everything early, MrComot brought me to A&W PJ - OMG bring so much memory. Ni la tempat2 lepak zaman2 bujang sebab 24hours kan hehehe. Last time I was there was like, 2 years back? This short break really excites me because we hardly enjoy outside food like this nowadays but guess what? He keep on receives lotsa calls that day, orang tanya itu lah ini lah. It's lunch hour people!!! Can't you call my husband on working hours if it's about work? I'm pissed because it's spoiling his mood. He feels bad whenever he can't attend the work immediately or problem arising. But hey, we have problem all the time ok! --> ok this one I marah my hubby, but as if he reads this blog haha.

Nevermind, so this is what we had!


I am so craved with the float and the gluttonous in me whisper right to my brain that it's not enough!

Hence we tapau-ed another double scoop float for me.


And leave me this feeling - ewwwww so manis macam minum air gula kelapa! Haha. No more float for me after this.


Oh ya, another reason for me to subscribe for unlimited data is because this Whatsapp keep on connecting my 3G even after I force the setting to connect on WIFI only. I already uninstall it because it bugs me. And now I am riding on unlimited 3G babes! So whatsapp is back in town!

The first person to beep me the moment I installed it is MrComot! It is like less than 1 sec after it runs, so fast pakcik tu!


So now I can do more thing with my phone - unlimited browsing, youtubing, etc etc etc. Anywhere anytime! Only thing is, hopefully Celcom can jaga their network well. No drop and reasonably fast will be good enough for me hehe.

What is a smart phone to you if without internet connection, right? ;)

Entering Crafty Zone

Remember about this phase where I bought lots lots lots of craft stuff and make nothing out of it. Guess what, the phase ain't over!!

I still buy little bit of art material online *sigh*.

I stop buying cotton fabric anyway because that will be..too..obvious. And I don't like it when MrComot will question me with "when are you going to make something". This little little thing that I bought is a bit secretive because they came in small package, just because they are small hehehe. Normally I will tell about all my online purchase before I pay (most of it because I don't have maybank2u and ask MrComot to pay for it hehe) but there are a few occasions where the supplier accept cimbclicks and that's when I'll click without telling him.

And he caught me doing it yesterday!

I found something I want very bad (but don't know when going to use it) online and click click click immediately buying it. Then the seller email me to inform the total bill and I opened the email and then went to the toilet for a while and left the email open. That's when MrComot came to my desk place and saw the email and gave me this big grin asking;

"what do you buy this time?"

Ughhhhh!! I was flushed to the max! And being me, I keep on justifying my purchase to him. Not that he gets angry with it,in fact he just laughing with my reaction. It's just... I can't believe it, what's wrong with me! Beli beli beli tapi tak buat apa-apa hahaha.

Anyway finally I made something with small part of my purchase. I made hairclips! For Zahra to be exact!


Since I am a first timer, this quite hard for me actually. I am no expert in handling the glue gun and it's all messy and sticky! And I think I bought the wrong size ribbon (which made me thinking I gotta buy new ribbon! haha!). The end product is not really satisfying but I believe in practice makes perfect!


Tried to snap few pictures Zahra wearing it but she refused to sit still hence the shaky pictures.

And gave me this big yawn "cepat lah mommy, bosannya kena amik gamba banyak kali!"

I also made adult version using felt and blanket stitch - OMG I am all crafty suddenly haha. I made a rose with big leaves and think it's not that cantik because MrComot cakap "OK" when I asked how is it. OK only? :(

Tak suka!


I forced him to model it for me ;)


So what do you think of my roses and the kiddie clips? Well, it's not big but definitely a good start, don't you think so? ;)

Gotta make other stuff pulak because there are so many thing I want to buy!! Hehehe

I love fruits!

I know I haven't really update on Zahra's food nowadays...it's because she eats the same thing! Beef-chicken-apple-beef-chicken-apple-papaya sometimes which spells B-O-R-I-N-G!

I didn't give her any fish yet, just because I don't want to hehe. And egg yolk, because I am lazy to check for the reaction. I decided to just wait until she is 10months plus.

Anyway just a couple of pics below in any case can give you inspiration on what to give for your little one.

I prepared fruits for her snacks time.

The usual apple + avocado


And this is something new to Zahra. Since she hates pear, I decided to mix it with banana and guess what? She likes it! Not only you can't really taste the pear, but it soften the banana taste as well, which I like most! Haha..macam for my food pulak.


You don't really have to steam banana but as I made it in big batch and want to keep it in the freezer, *I think* it's better being cooked. So I dump everything in the steamer and blend them accordingly to their combination.

I'm not really strict on Zahra's diet anymore. She eats bread, raisins, nasi kenduri, or pretty much whatever I feel like giving, but it's more on taste condition. Her main diet still be the sugar and salt free home-cooked meal that I make every weekend. And she still fully breastfeed! A few months to 1 year and I am really hoping I can make it to 2-years, aminn aminn aminn..

But one thing puzzles me, even though she's taking all the healthy food and on breastmilk, she still having this occasional constipation, which is weird. I don't know what causing it as it has become pretty norm nowadays. Not the rough constipation but after 2-3 days of normal poop, she will refuse to pass motion (or can't, I don't know) and the poop will back become hard. And repeats. I read that it could be the food itself - but we are giving her the same food so it couldn't be. And according to the doc, she might want to poop but got distracted and forget about it, and this will make the poo harder and she will refuse to pass motion. So we have to urge her every night, making it a habit for her to do the big job. I find it funny, and complicated. I mean, why don't you just do it if you feel like to *sigh*.


My princess latest pic in her new granny pajama. It's such a cutie! Got kedut-kedut at tangan and kaki haha. Bought it at FOS. Ohh I really dig this place because sometimes you can find good stuff at bargain price.


About the constipation, how about your babies, mommies? Do you experience the same thing?

I don't like mustard!

Zahra Elena is allergic to mustard!

I just found about it last night. We had Subway for dinner and I just pinch a bit of cheese (there is a bit of mustard stuck to it) and half an hour later, her face is swollen (the eyes and mouth area) and blotching with red patches! Ok, maybe she is allergic to cheese, but I don't think so because I've fed her swiss cheese before and she's all okay. My hunch strongly says it is the mustard!

The freaky part is, she barely eat it, I mean, it is like 5milimeter cheese and like, a dab of mustard? and still! causing this frightening allergy.

Not only on the face, the blotches also appeared on the belly and inner thigh, and the ear is redden and she keep on rubbing her face. I guess it's real itchy. Her respiratory also sounds differently, she's having this weird wheezing sound like being asthmatic and some mucus coming out from the nose, like a sudden cold.

It's freaky that I wanted to snap some pictures, but it's late already (around 10pm) and I want her to sleep to avoid the scratching so I was busy forcing her breastfeeding and falling asleep. Anyway we didn't go to any clinic because I know nothing much the doctor can do except waiting for the allergy reaction gone (or give some injection which I want to avoid if possible), unless it's pretty bad that affecting her breathing, then we'll go to the hospital. We did some online search and it's said the reaction will goes off within 12-24 hours.

Finally my poor baby slept with her puffy eyes and mouth, around 11pm. I checked this morning and thank God the swollen skin went down and leaves only few red patches.

Hopefully this is only temporary for her stage, I want her to be able to eat almost everything hehehe.

Below is her video laughing when being tickled. We were in Houz Depot last Saturday, buying some stuff and she got bored and refused to sit still in the stroller or while being carried. She wanted to climb and reach all over the display stuff, so I do this trick to distract her for a while. It works and fun at the same time! :D





Oh ya, talking about stroller, it's hard nowadays to go shopping with her, because she can't keep quiet and she just found out that she can climb out of the stroller while being tucked. Yes, she loosen herself and climb it over even though I already buckle her up. And refused to be wore as well! She will twist her body left and right in the carrier. Dear baby, I know you can't wait to run and move on your own, but wait till you can, you will miss the stroller hehe..
