Sad News

2 of my close friends had miscarriages this week. Sorang at 8 weeks and the other at 10 weeks gestation. So they have to flush out the blood clot either by taking medications or via D&C procedure (Dilation & Curretage). Listening to them, I'm pretty sure it's quite upsetting and will somehow or rather affect your emotions. I, myself, have never experienced any miscarriages before (Alhamdulillah). But I can understand being someone who has peed on the white stick before and watching the lines turned to a clear definite blue - it's the most wonderful feeling that you can have. Knowing that inside your tummy, your junior has started developing.

Nak pulak, kalau dah start pergi jumpe gyne. And you get to see the so-called 'Baby' during the scan. And there's the heart-beat, laju macam bunyi kuda duk tengah berlari - Hehehe. Memang sangat excited!!!

I can't say much, but I am sorry that they have to go thru this - which I'm sure no woman would want to go thru. But, as they say, there's always a hikmah disebalik setiap ujian Tuhan itu. God will never test you, if He knows that you are not capable of overcoming His tests.

So, take this opportunity to keep on cuddling with your spouses, because trust me, you would barely have time for this when 'Mini You' arrives later on. Go on second - third - fourth honeymoons - and take this time to pamper yourself. Insya Allah, when the time comes, you will be mommies in no time and Nia will have more friends to play with! Yeay!

Till then, chin up, rest well, love all and of course enjoy the process of making more babies in the coming months… ;-)

Caught by Mummy while having a go on Abah's wheel!

the Teh Tarik Place

Last weekend, the whole big troop finally met up for breakfast after a few weeks of virtual planning. Sounds very canggih. LOL! Anyway, seperti dijanjikan, breakfast was supposed to be at 10am & the The Tarik Place, The Curve.
Surprisingly, Nadya was the first one to be there. Followed by Sarah, Maya, Mieko & Co. By the time we reached there derang dah start makan pon. Ida was LATE!!!! By an hour!!!!! Eehhehe…sebab Cik Meen dia buat hal la…biasa la tu, dah beranak kecik, nak keluar rumah memang la payah…
So we talked and gossiped and laughed and chit chat some more and of course, harusla amek gambar. Hope to have this more often. Baru la dapat merapatkan hubungan silaturrahim. J

Tak Sekolah!

I was driving back home from work yesterday evening, and had to stop at the junction waiting for the traffic light to turn to green. All of the sudden, the car driver in front of me dengan tak semena-mena, bukak pintu kereta, and decided to throw rubbish by the road side. Apa jenis dia ni. Simply baling saja sampai kat tepi jalan time bukak pintu. I've always hated people who likes to litter around. Sungguh la tidak menjaga environment. Is it so difficult for you to wait until you reach wherever you're supposed to go, be it balik rumah or nak pergi mall ke ape. I'm sure where you're going tu ade byk tong sampah for you to throw your rubbish. Kenapa la kena buang kat tepi jalan? If it’s a bio-degradable item, i wouldn't have minded, ini tak, mamat hampeh ni bole buang tin Coke!!! Makanya, saya pon mengambil gambar of the culprit yg tak civic-minded ini. Dah la buang sampah, after the light turns green, boleh pulak buat illegal u-turn kat junction. Nasib tgn ku busy memandu, kalo tak dah amek gambo/video tunjuk org tak sekolah menangah ni. Hish!!!! Officer!!! Please sue this man!!!!

Mug-Shot

Nia had her first mug-shot taken yesterday kat Imigresen Shah Alam.
Of all the pictures, she refused to smile for her passport photo. Kalo tak, normally, pantang tgk camera, sure dah tersengeh dah. Penat je Photographer tu duk agak dia berbagai macam. Masam terus muka. Takpela, what to do. Mummy said, snap away je la. One shot and we're done.

Nia muka terkejut and masam-ness! hehehe...

Nia Fell Off the Bed

berderau darah subuh smalam....cos Semek fell off the bed while I was in the shower getting ready to go to work at 5am....tgh brush gigi, tetiba dengar bunyik 'gedebuk'....berlari keluar toilet....rupanya she woke up and was trying to crawl over to the shower dengar bunyi air....despite the fact that i've put six huge pillows all around her...haihhh....meggigil ler lutut mummy and siap boleh bergenang air mata sama ngen Nia while she cried....*sigh*...now, mummy has decided that Nia can no longer sleep kat celah ketiak mummy when abah is not around...whatever it is, kena tido jugak dlm cot...

thank you to all those comforting comments and thoughts from other mommies and daddies kat facebook...at least i know, all of their babies pon jatuh katil jugak at one point...i'm just glad that nothing bad happened, no bruises, no benjol, no terseliuh ke ape....

apart from that....another 2 new tricks from Semek...

Nia can now 'Jiggy with It' everytime a song is played on Disney channel...siap terkinja² pulak badan dia...;-)...will try to take a video of her jiggying the next time dia buat

And...Nia pon dah pandai geleng kepala skarang...everytime dia dengar kita ckp 'leng leng leng tergeleng-geleng' harus laaa dia geleng kepala jugak....and last night, while having papayas, when i ask her, "do u want some more"?, nia said no by geleng kepala for the first time!!! hehhehe...

I hate Expats!

I'm officially an Expatriate-Hater now - which I think the feeling is mutual.
They have never been anything to HR apart from trouble and problems.
Gaji like banyak Ya Rabbi, and yet ada aje la yg tak kena and nak complaint. Sungguh la tidak bersyukur.
Regardless if its a Mat Salleh Expat or a Malaysian Expats in overseas, sume kalau dah naik jadi Expats tu memang lah sengal.
Huh!!! Idiots!!!Stress~
