My Sun day

07Feb10

I love Sunday cos I have more time with her. See her happy face when her mommy is around ?

This morning I having brunch with Delia and Hana at Ampang. Lepas tu menyinggah sekejap dekat Ampang Point teman mummy Delia shopping barang baby tapi I pulak yang shopping. I bought toys for Maryam. The picture is on top left. The rest are among Maryam favourite toys. Ada yang I beli.. ada yang dapat present. The reason I bought this toy is to encourage her problem solving skills and motor skills to figure out colors, shapes, sizes to sort the rings.Macam2 la mummy ni hehe

Hari ni I tied up Maryam’s hair. Dah panjang and messy. Kan ok macam ni .. tak rimas lagi.. :)


Bouyancy

01Feb10

Today I have audited one factory in Sg Petani, Kedah. The factory is OEM manufacturer that producing all the bouyancy aids or inflatable products for Europe and UK markets. Their big customers are Speedo, Arena, Body Glove and etc. It was my second visit. Last visit was during my pregnancy in early November 2008.

And today was a lucky day for Maryam as she received little gifts from them. Baby seat, armband and UV sun suits … so cute ! Thank you Francis for the gifts. You are so generous and kind guy ;)

Mommy now is so excited to get Maryam first swimming lesson. Hoooyehh !


10 Months 3 weeks 4 Days

Maryam is going to turn 11 months in few days time. Time flies so fast kan.

At this moment, Maryam is able to stand up and make 1 2 steps ahead by her own. I just cant wait to see her walking .. really walking.. Hope that her birthday she will be able to walk independently. At this stage of her age she start to learn whatever things around her. She can show you part of your body (only nose ear and hand at this moment hehe) .. she can find you cat (in her book) when you asked so and she try to imitate your action (eg : clap hand, wave bye2, angkat tangan, show number ‘one’ and etc etc).

Talking about food, she still consume as per usual. 3times daily. Cereal – breakfast, porridge – lunch and mashed potato – dinner. I gave her fruits (apple, papaya, pear, banana, orange) veggies (sawi, spinach, carrots, cauliflower, white potato, white carrot, brocolli, calery, peas) meats (ikan merah, ayam, salmon, ikan bilis) .. youghurts..Sometimes I cooked her pasta and she love it. I havent introduce her red meat and eggs yet. Tapi last night I gave her scramble egg with cheese and she like it. Tapi I belum ajar my maid how to prepare the scramble egg yet. So most probably this weekend kot.

Now we are planning for her first birthday party. Nak celebrate macam mana ya ? pusing2…


Dubai Trip

29Jan10

I started my 2010 with a short unforgetful trip to Dubai, Middle East. It was a business trip that I combined with some holidays :) and of course the husband also tag along. We were there just in right time as the weather is really acceptable of 24degC, dry and foggy at daytime and about 16degC at night. Ok so lets the picture do the talking ..

Arrival at Dubai International Airport at 4am

We started our first day in Dubai with quick tour around the town. We hired a private taxi that cost us 300 dirham for half day and he bring us to few famous place around the town.

our driver of the day. hehe

Burj Khalifah / Burj Dubai .. The tallest tower in the world.

few places.. souk.. musuem.. beach..

Burj Arab

In the afternoon, we went to Desert Safari. I mean real desert hehe. We went there by four wheel drive, pickup us at our hotel. Together with us, were two filipino ladies (kaki clubbing sebab dengar lagu sikit terus gedik2 hehe) and just married couple from Africa.

sangat best ok !

sunset at desert..

weird and unique dance ..

belly dance..

Trip to Desert Safari was tremendously fun !Dune bashing, sand ski, camel ride, bbq dinner in the middle of desert, belly dancing ..was unforgetful experience in life.. at least for me :)

Talking about food, I was so tempted with the delicious beriyani that they served us. Food at the hotel also quite good. At least something different from here.

Ok.. skip to final day since other day I was occupied with the audit. On the last day, I visited my affiliate office in Dubai. Met the colleagues. The guy in the picture below is Crisanto, from Filipino.

So in the late afternoon we were heading to Dubai Airport to catch our flight back to Malaysia at 7pm. Good bye !

10 months 4 days

As for today Maryam finally could stand by her own for about 30 seconds. I can see her courage to stand up and balancing her body. She gave me this serious look ..mungkin nervous kot hehe..

I was so happy .. sampai nak nangis. ;p Tak sabar nak tunggu dia jalan pulak !


Maryam is such an active sleeper and doesnt like to be swaddled with blanket at all. We are sharing bed that makes her has enough space to move around.
She goes from her side to her tummy to her back and spinning 180 degrees. We have tried to put her in cot but she will end up to bump her head at side and crying in the middle of night because of feeling discomfort. So we ended up to bring her sleep with us…

The cutest thing is, whenever she  wakes up early in the morning.. she will wake me up by lying her head on my tummy and rubbing my face.. and smiles when I greet her with “morninggg”

Eventhough she is wild sleeper I know that she has good sleep afterall :)

Loves you Maryam xoxo
