Golekking with Aariz

It has been raining continously for d past few days..monsoon is not over yet in Kuantan...weather sekrang kan very unpredictable. i am actually at this very moment enjoying my time with my youngest baby....all my boys remain babies to me...baby gajah, baby kurush, abang baby n of course aariz ...the adik baby. love all of themwith all my heart. ..sometimes i cant believe myself that tehre is so much love in me...
ok back this little boy...he is my alarm...wakes me up every morning at 5.30 -6am...and i love it...he wont cry...he just making sounds urrggg arggghhhh like mummy please wake up lah ..i want baby tv....oh ya...you all should know that aariz hardly cries....susah sangat nak tengok air mata...baru sekarang mcm pandai sikit nangis....it worries me quite a bit jugak..but he did cry during his tenure in d hospital...maybe we attend to him like every seconds thus there is no reason for him to cry ...i dont know tapi risau jugak initially....but now daah besar ni suara kuat...n perhaps learning to be more demanding...baru ada nangis ....but still in a very rare occassion.....he is not grumpy at all...sangat cool....n serious jugak.
he is sitting more stable now...and learning to raise his butt. i think in a month or so, he will start crawling. by the way he is 1year 1 month today....along walks at 1yr3mths....angah exactly 1year...i cant remember abg adib...but more that 1year i would think.....no worries aariz...there is no rush...

abg adib kata...aariz sekarang dah pandai marah orang...as i said..he is now learng to be more demanding....making sounds pun dah banyak.

gosh i love baby's smell...tbere is no perfume in this world can beat it...especially smell of your own flesh n blood....sweetttt n refreshing.....

by the way today is saturday....love the weekend...it doesnt matter that we just hibernating in our own nest...the feel of having the loved ones around makes me feel complete and very much happy with this life i have.

Adib and school 2012

Another posting on adib dan cerita-cerita nya...this is his story on day 2 of 2012 school session. On day 1 he told me during dinner that the cikgu told his class taht there will be a selection for ketua darjah , the next day. I told him to tell cikgu that he wants to become one.

On day 2 he updated me..." mummy adib bagitahu cikgu yang adib nak jadi ketua darjah"
Then cikgu cakap, "ok boleh kita tengok votes"
and cikgu asked the class to raise their hands if they vote for adib....and i guessed the cikgu will announce something like this .."sapa sokong adib jadi ketua darjah--angkat tangan"

Adib said he looked around and nobody raise their hand or raise anything at all....and i burst into laughter.
And he also continued his story and commented " padahal mummy, adib dah jadi baik dah naik tahun 2 ni...semua cikgu adib panggil puan"....

abang-abang and my self laughed even louder!
I really dont get it about calling the teachers "puan"......Adib is just hillarious!

Adib and Kafa 2012

And the school session starts again...basically we have done our preparation for school quite early--new clothes for all the 3, new stationeries, new shoes and new bag for Along only. Angah and Adib--theirs are only one year old, so i asked them to use for another year....Adib dah tension..he commented "mummy ni kedekut lah, tadi keluar cash banyak". He saw me took out some cash from the atm...not knowing that they are for bibik :)

That shopping part was done but I missed Adib's registration for Kafa. Kept calling the school but they dont seem to answer phone calls or perhaps even the office was closed for school holiday--i dont know. I even applied for one day leave (on the last friday of 2011)to check the Kafa's office but we was greeted with closed doors..and there was a notice stated that the registration was 2 days before. Gosh! and I actually called daily during the week....sabar je lah.

I was so worried...so just in case i looked banners for other sekolah agama and this conversation came up:

Adib: kalau tak dpt masuk kafa, mummy aje lah ajar adib

Mummy: mummy tak de masa lah adib

Adib: mummy tu kerja tengok movies aje

Mummy: mummy tengok movie sebab mummy nak rehat ( mummy tak nak ngaku kalah :)

Adib: kalau mummy ajar adib ngaji, mummy bukan buat apa...dengar aje..bukan penat pun...

Tak ke terpanah hati mummy dengar tu ???

Apa nak cakap...action speaks louder than words right? .....the kids are watching....

By the way, I sent Adib on his first day of kafa and realised that the registration for existing student is automatic...thank god!

2011 Xmas

Of course we dont celebrate Christmas, but we have stories surrounding christmas n ahmad adib. My dear cheeky ahmad adib aka mr froggy is obsessed with snow. Due to excessive of televisions, he associates snow with christmas...i.e. the world will only snowing during christmas...and christmas is only for mat saleh in the land of mat salehs of course. I think it was last year, he was all shocked with christmas decorations in KL..and I told him...xmas is for christians and christians come in many colours not only whites. And i think from school, he learns about religions and understand that part well now.Then comes the snow...I cant remember when, but sometime this year upon knowing that dec25th is Xmas ( he checked the desk calendar), he has asked me and abah to bring the family to have a vacation in London for Xmas due to his obsession with snow. He didnt request once but many times, i was so tired to layan him that at times i said yes, just to shut him off.So he waited patiently.......
He once told me, when people are out in the street of London celebrating Xmas with Santa, we should stay in the hotel for a while and come out again playing with snow after santa has left.

Then there was this day when the weather is so hot in Kuantan and we were like craving for starbuck's ice blended, he said...we wont have this problem in London, because we can just take the snow and put it in our mouth...tak payah beli ice blended.

On another occassion, Angah was making a lot of fuss about his birthday present...Adib told Angah, nanti kat London, we ask Santa some presents and give all to Angah....tak payah mummy beli...free of charge.

Finally last friday ...2 days before Christmas...he asked me if they have piano the next day,and I told him the calss was cancelled because Christmas would be the next day...suddenly he screamed, "mummy ni kata nak gi London....esok kan xmas, adib nak main snow.."...Adoi as if London is just a drive away.........Thank god, christmas is over now...and i hope this wont repeat next year...but of course we got to think a way to fulfill his dream on touching the snow....perhaps Genting...he..he...!!

Adib and Halloween gadget

The last time we went down to KL, the city was celebrating Halloween. I have written before about Adib and his interest with Halloween. Tot it was over as he is 7 years now but I was wrong...he is more anxious now than before....I'll tell you why.
At our fisrt stop i.e. Pavillion..the was only a small kiosk...and he started, "mummy please mummy, satu aje amik yg murah aje". I said ok and left him to Abah, as I rushed to Mothercare for Aariz's soother because we left his in the car. When I rejoined them again, Adib was still "sebek" (wearing a sad face). So we went to the shop again and get him "the hand"...The hand was filled with kekabu initially but being as creative as he is, Adib asked for my permission to take it out and wear it instead.

The very next day we came accross this one shop selling all sort of party goodies...and of course halloween was the theme...and the boys were like over the moon...yes, the 2 older brothers were like tumpang sekaki....

Brought home this mask....i asked Adib to take Shrek...and he replied "mana takut shrek tu"..so Shrek back to the shelf... Choosing which to buy....he was looking for the scariest and freakiest

Angah chose to be Mr Anonymous...and he bought another one during his school trip to Melaka--a green anonymous mask...
Along bought 2 little mice...they look so real which chill me to the bone..for a few days, those little mice were like following me....they were in my handbag, mix with my make up, on the table , in my bed....everywhere....geram betul... The picture below was during dinner with Tok Bibah and Tok Haji...i was worried tok bibah would have a heart attack...gosh.... So finally I asked Adib...what is it with all these Halloween stuff....and he answered me,

"boleh kacau budak budak perempuan...mesti semua jerit jerit"......

There you go...begitu memberansangkan...ha..ha..ha...

Aariz and Aimran's 2011 birthday

I feel like it was only recently i gave birth to my precious baby Aariz and in a blink he is now 1 year....emmmm...not a blink lah..like a few blink blink and wallah...besar dah anak kita. He was about 3kg in March i.e. 3 months after his birth...so by right, his adjusted age , we think should be around 9 months now.
Having said that, legally he is still 1 year old. Aariz is now learning to sit on his own, loves playing with his toys...and can be more expressional these days when you talk and play with him....and he still very much into his Baby TV....
I think I will have problem to get him concentrate on his studies later on...if taking Along's as an example...Along , when he was little we bombarded him with all the disneys' movies...he could spend hours in front of the tv and he can do that until now...erkkkkk...anyway...

****in february 2011 at about 1.8kg****

During this time last year, everything about Aariz was rather uncertain...every now and then, the paeds would unveil his progress and told the worst scenarios...that was difficult to handle, most of the time I ended up with tears. Abah and Mummy, we tried our best to stay strong for each other and of course to convey the positive vibe to Aariz.

***still think he is the cutest newborn---basically this is how the unborn baby looks like snuggling in moms' tummy--masyallah***

That devastating phase is over insyallah, and now we cherish beautiful moments every minutes and every day. Aariz is also so lucky to have the 3 abangs who love him so dearly and always openly showing their affection towards him. All praise to Allah.

Another Sagitarian that we have in the family is Angah...he is 11 years old now, and will sit for his UPSR next year...Of course we are aiming for 5As....a bright boy indeed but can be rather complacent also. The truth is mummy yg takut lebih...the boys macam tak de perasaan aje...very the selamba! For Angah, wishing him happy birthday, semoga jadi anak yg soleh insyallah...berjaya di dunia dan akhirat....and I also hope he can control his anger....He can easily loose his temper.....and he tend to response too quick that he leave the thinking part to later.To handle that Abah is giving constant reminders....in fact too constants I think ha..ha..ha...and now Adib is like a tape recorder "ishhh.... Sagi ni..."... Loving all of them so completely!

Early pact for 2012

In about 7 days we will be celebrating Angah's birthday, then 4 days later will be first birthday for our precious little one, Ahmad Aariz. After that , in a blink we will be in 2012. 2012 will be a challenging year for the family as Along will sit for his PMR and Angah for his UPSR. How's that? Gosh...scary thought ...like a nightmare...i feel like it was just months back I was traumatised with Along's UPSR ..and now I have 2 to handle in a year. 2011 final exam was not a good one for both..Along, I think he only got like 1 or 2 As for ...i dont know computer literature maybe...or perhaps no A at all...it was too bad that I dont want to remember. He got another D for Agama...I really cant undersatnd that....during my years of schooling, agama is something for extra A...and my boy got D for agama. Angah , he got 4As and 1B--B for Bahasa. So both results are not helping in reducing my turmoil in approaching 2012.

I was so mad...that i changed to "mummy monster" on the day i collected Along's result. I was so mad at Along himself and to myself as well...I hate myself when i had that "transformation" but mummy is also human , at times i just got blown away!!Sometimes, I wished i didnt do what i did...but you boys should know i had all good intention inside.

Anyway,to think about it ... I should have adopted a more strict way in guiding the boys with their studies. The truth is I dont do much than buying them the revision books...thought they are mature enough to study for their own benefits. But kids being kids, we just need to exercise our parental guidance. We need to keep a close-eye on their activities and so on.

I sat down with the boys, talked to them and we have made a pact between us for 2012.

We are going to work together for" Ace-s" and We have started right away:

1. The desk top is switched off until the next exam... for Along to show some improvement

2. No more footie ...also until the next exam..they still can take a break with activities around the house area though

3.Angah is allowed to his laptop twice daily...during day break and a nite to feed his some cyber animals..about one hour each time---he personally requested this

4.Along still allowed to the playbook once a while --for some facebooking and games

5. Along needs to finish some exercise on daily basis and let me mark them at nite.

6.They both have started their tuition this Dec

They both have shown some improvement to adhere to the pact we made and i hope all of us will keep on track until the finishing line. May Allah helps us to achieve these goals of ours...aminnn.
