Cerita Ramadhan

Alhamdulillah,dah nak masuk tgh bulan puasa.Lama tak update,laptop minum air Muhriz la tuang.Tapi salah mama la,tak monitor awak betul2.Seriously bila ckp kat hubby "Abg,Muhriz tuang air atas laptop abang" Bapaknya relaks je,suruh terbalikkan laptop,pastu balik keje die gi check.Mama cuak dah sebab dah jadi blank white screen dah laptop tue.Ok so if this ever happens to you,i.e tertuang air atas laptop,immediately turn it off,cabut power plug,battery pon kene cabut,cabut any cable,place the laptop upside down to allow the liquid to drain out.Let it dry for few hours,atau nak selamat,leave it overnight,kitorang biar for 2 days huuu.Alhamdulillah hidup lagi laptop ni!Gambar muhriz la saya paling risau,so bila dah okay cepat2 backup letak dlm external HD.Ok selain kejadian laptop;

-Tak miss sahur lagi so far.Tapi my ayah still call every pagi kjutkan sahur hahaha dah tua2 pon kene ayah kejut =p

-Alarm still set kul 445,bangun nenenkan Muhriz dulu even die tak mintak.pastu sambung tido tunggu ayah call keut kul 5.Muhriz kalau tak kasi nenen siap2,sure masa mama dgn dada tgh makan bangun sekali.Bangun dan beronar la sebab member kan everynite kul 12 baru tido.
-Dah buat 3 kuih raya ahaha.weekend lepas buat biskut dahlia dgn hubby.Hodoh tak hingat.Dah la nak buat tue bukan main berperang dgn kenit.Mandi tepung habis die.Tgh kacau doh die tuang cornflakes,nasib sikit je.Pastu amik doh letak dlm diapers die -_- Baru buat dahlia hui hui

-baru sekali gi pasar ramadhan,beli ayam golek sekor pastu balik.Nak pegi tapi tatau nak beli ape.Next nak beli murtabak la.

- terawih pon mama baru gi sekali kat masjid.Masjid air cond dah so selamat takdee stand fan Muhriz nak kacau tapi lepas tue ramai kawan Muhriz jadi out of control huuhu.So tunggu lah kamu bsar sikit pulak baru gi terawih.Sebelum ni solat biasa mmg a few times dah bawak,ok je.maybe masa tu tak ada budak lain kot.

-Alhamdulillah even mat muhriz still penenen yg berjaya,mama masih okay.terima kasih Allah kerana permudahkan urusan yg ini.

-Minggu depan Muhriz will turn 2!Celebrate masa raya la nak ye.Alhamdulillah sgt2 masih minum susu mama la.Saya pernah tulis kat sini kan,ini mmg one of my main priority for Muhriz dan saya sgt2 bersyukur Allah permudahkan.Pasni kene pikiq camne nak biar die kurang menenen sikit hahaha bukan ape,sekarang sejam sekali mesti mintak huhu.Dari baby sampai sekarang masih monster susu hehe

okay nak gi masak dah sementara Muhriz still tido.semlm die main sorang sampai 1am,mak pak pengsann =p

Muhriz and kentut

Kids learn new skills every day kan.Alhamdulillah the best part of raising a kid at home is you're not gonna miss any of it.Dlm 2 hari nie anakanda saya pandai:

1)Pandai amik baju busuk dlm laundry basket dan berusaha terengket2 letak dlm washing machine(top loader)

2)Pandai kentut,ok more to control dan buat kentut kot.Ok sebab baby lagi kan,kentut pon comel.inii tak boleh tahan sangat lawakk siap tonggeng2 bonbon,lepas kentut gelak kuat2 pastu lariii tutup muka.And he can fart a few times,macam2 bunyi ade.Nak kene ajar kalau nak kentut kene menyorok.

3)New words this week: Hedgehog,snail,squirrel,rainbow,chair,boleh differentiate between frog and fork.Besides your baby can read,saya akan ajar Muhriz 1-2 new words setiap hari.Google gambar,save then tunjuk kat die.letak dlm folder together dgn photo of things he has learned before.Malam sebelum tido revise balik.He might not be speaking clearly but i can assure his vocabs is building tremendously.Kalau hedgehog sebut ed og.Rainbow panggil e bow.

Ok selamat berbuka puasa.Nak gi guling dgn anak,sat lagi nak masak.Day 5,masi tidak berpasar ramadhan.

tweety nine dah

These years,i donot expect much on birthday.Don't wanna make a big deal about it.Cukup dgn wishes je hadiah tak ada pon tak apa.Tanda2 dah tua kot ye huhu.Tapi kalau ade special day macam nie mesti rasa nak mkn something special selain dari ayam masak merah or aglio olio spaghetti kan hahaha. Knowing my hubby,die mmg jarang buat surprise2 ni,kalau buat pon mesti fail.Bila tanya nak present ape,entah macam tatau nak ape so jawapan standard la "Tak payah present,Muhriz kan present birthday,present anniversary" Huhu mmg pon,birthday hubby pon die ckp macam tue jugak.Tapi kalau hari lain,org tak offer pandai pula mintak2 suruh beli itu ini kan =p.So rasanya Muhriz sorang je kot ada birthday present.Since kami mmg tak pegi buffet ramadhan juga tidak begitu excited utk berbuka di luar,hubby decided die akan buatkan pavlova and beef lasagna utk berbuka semlm.Early celebration katanya sebab hari nie kerja kan,mane sempat masak.pavlova tue patut hubby ckp kene let it cool dlm oven dulu baru bawak keluar,tapi sebab nak guna nak bake lasagna,tak berapa cool lagi jadi la terpenyek center part tue.Thanks hub,suami memasak untuk isteri mmg hot hehe.

Once a week,saya akan ada day out dgn Muhriz.Tadi die terbangun dlm kereta on the way ke office hubby lagi,sebab hubby bising dlm kereta bergaduh dgn nyamuk!Rumah to ofc hubby tak jauh pon 8km je tapi utk meriangkan hati anakanda,kite stop kat Tesco jap sebab Tesco ada indoor playground plus sebelah je dgn kilang hubby.Muhriz kalau nampak dada die keluar kereta tinggal die siaplah nak buat concert hehe.Last saturday mase beli grocery, dah tgk2 dah this collection,tapi bila pegang,terus letak balik sebab i iz tak berapa gemar printed lycra.Tapi lepas ada org tanya balik dan balik "sure ke tanak?" i decided nak try this time.Size S tak byk dah tinggal tapi still la ada.

 So sekarang dah puas hati tak beli.

Surviving shopping with a toddler

Weekly grocery shopping is always fine,bawak ke pasar pon takpe Muhriz nie,bookstore lagi lah die suka as it is one of his fav kedai,anak mama nie kan suka bace buku.There's a lot for him to see and learn;ada fish,veggie,fruits,lembu tergantung sibuk ckp "mama,cow mooo" dan kalau pegi bookstore mmg bulat2 mata tue hehe.He always enjoy looking at the stuff on the racks,nanti die sibuk lah tunjuk apa yg die dah tau,especially fruits.But one shop he never likes to be in is the clothing store,NEVER!After 2 mins,mintak nak turun dari Buzz,lepas 5 mins habis sepahkan baju kat situ,larikkkk.So until he understands the art of comprimising,i just give in and shop baju bajan online instead.It's a win-win situation for us now.Plus everything is available online these days,click2 je.Tapi hari tue masuk jugak Cotton On haha,tapi we planned ahead and took all survival steps needed.We thought he would behave as best as he could sebab baru bgn from nap,dah makan kenyang,dan dah pegi Toys r Us,die dpt a new Cat truck.But he didnot!Tak sempat nak buat ape die dah start dah project hehe.Believe it or not,i shopped for these 3 pieces in less than 5 mins,main tarik2 then passed kat hubby la bayarkan,before jadi disaster baik keluar cepat.dah keluar baru teringat eh do the clothes fit Muhriz?haha luar kedai baru ingat nak ukur kat badan anak,punya lah kecoh.

 With his 5th CAT truck.yg nie kecik boleh masuk pocket,senang kerja mama.

Some tips on shopping with small children(even i myself pon still tidak berjaya hahaha)

-Timing is everything-feed the kids as well as yourself.And don't plan to shop around his naptime but if you have too,don't forget to bring the stroller.This is the main reason we choose a Buzz over a Zapp last time.Buzz mmg boleh fully recline so anak mmg tido baring lah.

-Bring a long snack and toys

-Get your kids to involve in shopping.Biar die amikkan fruits,let him know the names of the veggie etc and dont forget to allocate some time at his fav spot,the toys isle.

-Make the trip shorter-Make a list of stuff to buy so you don't just wander around and grab things or later have to go back to find missing items.and plan your trip before hand nak singgah mana dulu.

-Know the location of the baby's room,make sure baby dah minum susu or make sure you know his next feeding time.

Kalau ada tips lagi share ye,tenki.

Belikan toys mahal tapi...

I believe benda nie normal these days.Sgt normal so tak heran pon kalau masih ade yang question kenapa saya choose utk jadi housewife hihihi.

Belikan anak ipad sorang satu,kemudian tinggal dgn bibik for more than 12 hours,7 days a week.Then take a break for a few days,bring them for a holiday,beli toys lagi.Beli mainan semahal mana pon,jika parents tidak sit and play with them,it doesnot mean anything.A kiddo needs attention more than toys.Working parents yg manage to juggle between kids and housework after ofc hours adalah super parents saya rasa,good job.Don't think sendiri boleh handle that.

Different parents have different parenting styles.Kalau saya ckp saya tak suka anak saya tgk tv sangat,akan ada yg ckp kids boleh learn a lot from the educational show.Yes maybe,tapi not for kids below the age of 2.Exposure to tv should be minimal.Remember this,at this early age,we parents yg arrange our kids' schedule.So jgn marahkan die kalau nanti die asik nak tgk tv instead of doing something else.I would rather sit and play with him then bukakkan tv utk die then mama pegi masak yg canggih2.Play with real toys,bukan ipad ke ape.Kalau terpaksa masak masa anak dah bgn,just masak yg sesimple boleh.Sebab tue mama tak pandai masak sampai sekarang har har har.And if i have to leave him,selalunya saya akan ckp "I'll be in the kitchen for 5 mins,then i'll come back to play with you".Housework sebolehnya saya settlekan before little one wakes up.Takpon kalau agak2 tak sempat,siapkan yg mana rasa2 tak boleh buat kalau kenit nie dah bgn like mop the floor,kitchen counter,clean his toys,laundry,masak.By the time die bgn semua dah settle so boleh bagi attention kat anak je.Muhriz even main ganas tapi sgt manja,kene berteman all the time.Owh well maybe la sebab saya yg ajar tak pernah tinggalkan die kan.Tapi mak mmg selfish,suka pulak anak tak boleh mak hilang dari mata hui hui.Every parent akan buat the best for his/her children.Mama tak kerja so tak dpt kasi muhriz benda mahal ke murah ke(itu kene mintak dgn dada) but i can always be there to attend you,shower you with love and explore the day.Main truck/train/blocks sampai lebam kan sayang?Jom 230pm dah,baru boleh bukak tv tgk wonderpet

Durian Buffet Balik Pulau

Ever heard of it?Just click durian.com.my semua ada;what packages do they offer(ade chalet lg should u decide to experience tido dlm dusun durian),direction to the farm,varieties of durian.

Before i got married to hubby,boleh bilang berapa ulas je makan,sekarang i can finish 2 medium sized durians at one go.Hubby jenis yg boleh makan durian one whole day tak makan nasi,so he really doesnot mind durian kampung ke,durian branded ke.Tapi 2 minggu lepas beli durian longgok for RM30,mostly tak sedap dan rosak.So hubby ckp jomlah gi balik pulau,nak beli biji2 one can simply costs at least RM20 so harus lah pegi buffet terus.FYI,branded durians ain't cheap,mostly priced at least RM15/kg.Yours truly belajar makan branded durians with colleagues and friends masa dok penang dulu,imagine my colleagues boleh pegi buffet durians masa friday lunch hour hihi.I didnt follow but i ask them to tapau a few for me.Since then bukan tak makan durian kampung,tapi kalau tak sedap terus tolak tepi buat tempoyak or sambal or masuk bubur.Branded durians so far takde jumpa lagi yg tak elok dan semuanya sedap.so tak la sakit hati bila bukak asik dpt yg rosak.Macam nie la kalau beli yg longgok,out of 5 tue,selalunya 1 je yg sedap.At this farm(and other durian stalls kat b pulau nie),you can tell them nak yg isi color ape,rasa macam mana.Each one has distinguish taste;ada yg manis,yg lemak tapi pahit,ada byk color pulak tue.Dan semua durian baru jatuh,fresh from the farm.So this is my 2nd visit to Bao Sheng durian farm,located right after Titi Kerawang,Balik Pulau.We opted for RM35/pax which excludes Ang Heh or Red Prawn(RM55 and above)sebab baru lepas demam rasa takot pulak nak mkn byk sgt,mkn sikit kan rasa tak worth it.Perfect location,lepas makan durian boleh pi berendam dlm air terjun titi kerawang.Baru lepas demam ja 3 beranak tapi habis 12 biji semua,ada berani?hew hew nasib baik tak demam balik.

Package free semua org tak suka: Demam sekeluarga

Minggu ini minggu sakit.First it was me,thursday lagi rasa tak sedap badan.Ingatkan sore throat sebab byk minum ice,panas kan lately.Tgk2 sebab nak demam.next day temp dah naik to 40 C.

So friday ptg lepas hubby balik kerja terus kerjakan mak haha sponging every 5 mins,minum 100plus and water bergalloon2.FYI,our body temp akan rises a bit higher between late afternoon and early evening,mmg didesign sebegitu,so between this time frame badan paling lemah.
Sat morning rasa dah agak2 larat,terus kerjakan rumah la sakit mata tgk bersepah.Askar kecik besar nie mmg seronok diorang bergabung kuasa dua sepah sane sini.huhu dah tgh hari demam semula,ituuu la,suh rehat tamau!Tapi mlm ok balik tapiii yg tak ok anakanda pulak kena nya :( So Sunday adalah hari merengek Muhriz,check temp 39C,shot pcm bonbon.mmg kitorang wajibkan stock pcm bonbon nie ade sokmo for cases like this,kalau fever temp dah above 39 mmg immediately sumbat,kelakar tgk muka muhriz macam eh ape kat bonbon nie huhu.Bawak pegi panel dulu sebab nak monitor sendiri dulu kat rumah.Dpt lah ubat sebakul.

Saya rasa kalau demam biasa,it's best for him to stay at home,muhriz mama suapkan ubat pon melalak,kalau org lain ape lagi.dr sentuh tangan pon tak boleh okay,so hubby kate kite tgk dulu mlm nie macamana.Before tido letak ubat bonbon sekali lagi,he woke up at 230am,dah terlebih tido kot.check temp still 39.5,so kemas ape patut cepat2 pegi PMC.Euro cup ape segala cup pon tak heran dah.Sampai PMC,kene letak pcm bonbon one more time then jumpa dr,check lung and breathing everything was okay alhamdulillah.So i asked the dr if Muhriz needed to be warded.Dr tue ckp kalau nak mmg boleh je but with his condition nie,baik rehat kat rumah.Tapi kene sponge sokmo,yg tue dr tak payah risau sebab me and hubby mmg tido anak ayam lah every few mins bangun basahkan kepala,lap folded area.So to reassure,i asked him again,if muhriz is warded,what will the staff/dr do.Dr ckp same thing,sponging,ubat demam and maybe kalau tak turun2 temp kene masuk air(drip la tue).Dok hospital nak make sure he takes his med on time lah senang cerita.Discuss with hubby,tanye dr lapan belas kali sampai die malas nak layan=p dan agak2 dah berpuas hati.muhriz pula takde sign of dehydration(mana taknya nenen sokmo) or other more serious sign,so we decided to go home.Kami pon tak sanggup die kene tahan kat ward kalau boleh jaga sendiri kat rumah.plus dr ckp boleh balik je tapi kalau tak confident and his temp tak turun,esok dtg balik.rumah to PMC tak jauh pon about 10mins.

Dan betul lah,esok paginya anak saya bangun,tarik my tangan to his play area,amik few books and asked me to read along.Alhamdulillah,walau mama and dada jadi zombie tapi tak apa asal kamu sihat.Suka betul die habis toys kene sepah,all out lah.Siap suruh bukak pintu nak main bike kat porch tue,nasib baik windy hari tue,so layan je la kejap.Some tips on handling fever ni

-Fever is a sign that our body is fighting an infection
-Put minimal cloth on your kid.Do not wrap him.Kalau hari panas,muhriz pakai diapers je
-Frequent sponging is a must.sgt amat penting.Lap his head/chest and back,folded area yg traps heat(bawak ketiak,kat leher) every 5-10mins.Keep in mind that his body has excess heat and it needs to be relieved.I've read somewhere ckp guna ice tak elok actually sebab blood vessel akan jadi smaller,so buat makin susah nak release heat.Kalau nak mandikan pon boleh tapi expose to air sikit2 tgk die okay tak.kalau sampai menggigil,better jgn.Some ppl ckp lap dgn air asam jawa?Tak sure if that one works,tak pernah try.
-Give lots of to drink;milk or water to lower the body temp and prevent dehydration
-I used to measure his temp every 10mins,tak betul nie.patut biar at least half an hour baru measure balik.
-Use your instinct,tgk baby active ke tak so you know when to get help.Muhriz mase temp 38.5 boleh lagi main,lompat2 tapi kalau die monyok semacam tue,biasanya temp die lebih dari tue.
-Look out for signs off serious illness like breathing problem,diarrhea,drowsiness etc.If there is,or the temp doesnot go down despite the med,get medical help.
 

In our case,hought it's best for Muhriz to rest at home dan Alhamdulillah instinct kami betul.But depending on how high the temp,how long your baby has had the fever and what you have done to bring it down,you may choose otherwise.Owh lupa,dada pon demam jugak sampai ke MC.Ubat kene double dosage lagi.Baby besar nie lagi susah nak jaga sebab lagi pandai memberontak tanak kene sponge la,tanak minum la hew heww
