Balik kelate

3rd raya balik kelate dari pahang gerak around 730am.Muhriz tido all the way sampai cabang 3 kuala krai.then stuck jam gerak 10km/hr je di jalan machang kuala krai for one hour kot,nasib baik lepas tue masuk exit kemubu jalan kampung.Muhriz bila di kelate die ialah si baby,sebab cucu paling kecik.So mmg kene gomol dgn aunties,uncles,sepupu2 pon ikut je die.Senang mama dgn baba boleh rehat sebab ramai babysitters hehe.Selalunya kalau raya puasa,family saya akan plan menu sampai raya ke 3.So raya ke 3 saya request nasi dagang :)

Malam ade bbq or berbraii.Braii nie actually spices used to marinate haiwan2 bbq tue mak long and pak long muhriz bawak balik dari south africa.BIL has been staying in s africa since feb 2011,so stock braii nie sentiasa ada kat rumah.kat sini my sis kate di cold storage ade.sedap dan senang hehe.

Berpasar malam wakaf che yeh.standard la balik mesti pegi.tak jauh pon dari rumah tapi jgn pegi lambat kalau tanak jam.kitorang selalu pegi lepas maghrib.By the time org baru nak sampai,kitorang nak balik dah hehe.

Hehhh balik kampung adalah sgt seronot.Raya haji ni nak balik for a week,can't wait!.Selamat berweekend!

Aidilfitri 2012 part 2: Hari raya di Taman Negara

When MIL called around mid of Ramadhan,telling we're going back to her kampung utk beraya,mulut mak dah ternganga.Sebab kampung MIL nie nun di Ulu Sat,reachable by boat or 4WD je.It's 2.5hrs boat ride or kalau ada pajero ke landrover ke boleh redah dlm 1.5hrs jugak la jalan tanah merah okay.Hubby himself hasnot come back since masuk sekolah menengah,MIL pon jarang dah balik since immediate family mmg tak ade dah kat situ.This time the plan was to pegi balik hari naik boat utk beraya dan kenduri kerbau,yes kerbau lagi lah mak ternganga,mak tak makan kerbau!

So we started the journey awal pagi lepas subuh sebab dari rumah MIL kat pekan jerantut to jetty taman negara kuala tahan pon dah sejam.Kalau kat kelantan nie 3.5 hours from KB rasa sampai merapoh kuala lipis dah hehe.boat arrived late,nasib baik Muhriz ok je sambung tido dalam Babybjorn.Yer budak ini masih suka duduk dlm pocket ayah die kekeke.

Bila boat sampai mak ternganga lagi sekali sebab boat kayu panjang takdak life jacket.Sebelum tue dah byk kali tanye hubby ckp ade,so mmg kene jeling lah die kuang kuang.Muhriz was wide awake by this time,mamat ni kan suka main air mmg excited betul nak sentuh air dari dlm boat tue,risauu wehh.tapi bila boat dah gerak die ok kadang2 je tak boleh tahan nak keluarkan tangan sampai mama dgn baba dua2 kene tarik die.power struggle die mmg sedikit ganas kadang tue.But overall,the boat ride was not that bad,first few mins semua excited main pass2 food,tgk monkey,kerbau,jerit lalu jeram.tapi bila passed one hour still tak sampai2,bontot dah kebas mula lah boring.Muhriz tak tido langsung.

 Kg Orang Asli

 Sampai around 11 alhamdulillah.Dari where the boat parked to kene jalan redah sungai pulak,sampai lutut jugak la.Mama buat drama la menjerit sebab seriously rasa ade bende kat kaki,ingat ketam tapi hubby ckp kayu kot.Anak mama lagi buat drama konon2 jatuh habis basah dgn diapers,padahal die nak mandi kat dlm sungai tue kekeke.Org sane tgk mesti menyampah artis mana plok nie mengada menjerit jerit -_- Sampai kampung hubby macam YB rasanya habis kene bersalam.Maybe sebab tak pernah jumpa mama kot,hubby plak mesti diorang pelik eh budak nie rasanya kecik2 dulu dtg sini gemok,sekarang kurus plok kekeke.Anak mama dah start mengamok sebab panas dan mengantuk,mmg die tido for the whole 3 hours kat situ =p Kerbau mama rasa secuit je pastu tak boleh dah,nasib ade patin tempoyak my fav.Makan berkelah bawah pokok lagi syokk.Some pak2 sedara hubby dah sampai earlier utk tolong2 masak.Kami je sampai untuk makan semata mata=p

One question hubby himself pon has no answer is why did his great grandpa move all the way from kota bharu to this kampung.Tapi orang orang kampung sini sgt close to each other,mmg rajin semua tolong each other,even kat kampung saya rasanya dah tidak begini.I'm glad we made it,it's an eye opener you know.Well saya sendiri pon kat KB tue dok kampung je but this one is different,imagine tempat nie nak ke pekan jerantut pon 4 hours baru sampai.Bila nak balik one of the villagers asked me kenapa cepat sgt nak balik,didn't i like it there?Adeiii nasib baik ade jawapan selamat,esoknya pagi2 nak gerak balik kota bharu dah pakcik hehe.

Left around 3,arrived kuala tahan around 5,sampai rumah 6pm fewhhhh what a day! Tapi naik boat nak balik seriously lagi fun hehe

Lalu jeram,scaryy air percik2 masuk boat

Can u spot muhriz?tak main tab die nenen,itu lah kerjanya hehe

 

Aidilfitri 2012 part 1

A kum,

Lepas raya baru ada mood nak update blog.rasanya it's not too late nak ucap selamat hari raya dan maaf kalau ade yg terasa hati :)Meh nak cerita ceriti raya kami

1)This year turn hubby dulu.So balik pahang sampai raya ke 2.raya ke 3 dah gerak balik kota bharu.Kitorang last berhari raya puasa kat jerantut in 2006.Lepas tue hubby raya kat deutschland,saya kat msia sampai 2008.2009 both beraya kat London sebab saya busy dgn dissertation.2010 beranak before puasa so confirm raya kat kota bharu.2011 hubby gi training 1 week before raya,balik 1 week after raya,so saya dgn muhriz raya di KB jugak.So this year die mmg excited betul lah nak balik kg tue hehe.

2)For the first time ever,saya buat kueh raya utk bawak balik kg.Buat yg senang sekali jek pon nak bising tapi considering it's my first trial dan kueh diterima baik dan dimakan habis oleh keluarga,it's a successful attempt lah for me.

Pastu buat carrot cake with cream cheese topping kat rumah MIL.Yg buat mak terbangnya,habis jualan cake mak tue,ramai kate sodap kakaka.bagi saya yg jarang masuk dapur kat rumah mertua,ok ler tue kot kah kah.

3)Jahit manik kat baju sendiri hahaha tipu je.beli border beads siap,pastu saya jahit bead tue,tak tersangka boleh rajin pulak kah kah.

4)Spent 9 hrs on the road from a staq to jerantut rumah MIL.Terjoin bumper to bumper traffic di highway Karak pukul 10pm-12am mlm jumaat tue.Alhamdulillah selamat sampai,muhriz pon behave sgt dlm kereta.

5)Hari sabtu 18 Aug was our 6th wedding anniversary hehe.tkde special celebration pon kecoh nak beraya dah belaka.So saya this year masih record puasa penuh tapi elok je mlm nak tido tu rasa lain macam la check2 period rupanya.Huhuhu so kene berhati hati di jalan raya lah lepas nie since babah kate kalau boleh next year lah baru beradik baby.

6)Pagi raya confirm lah tak gi semayang raya sebab period kan.Kalau tak period pon mmg tak gi sebabnya Muhriz bgn kul 1030!tue pon lepas kene angkat.Mama gosok muka die,tiup telinga,cium2 korek hidung semua tak jalan still tido.Angkat pon sebab nak angkut gi raya rumah sedara hubby,alih2 die jaga.nasib tak mengamok hehe.

see,sepupu dtg kejut pon tak bgn2 jugak

So gambar raya sket.kalau raya kat rumah hubby takde gambar raya satu family nie.yg suka posing2 berchamwhoring ialah keluarga saya hahaha

ok nanti sambung part 2.beraya di taman negara pahang naik boat 3 jam,ko ada?hahah

Lama tak post gambar makanan.puasa2 nie tak larat nak amik gambar.tapi bukan masak hebat pon kan hahaha.semlm buat aglio olio dgn cracker chicken je.tue pon bertempiaran 730pm baru nak masak spaghetti tue(tapi barang dah potong siap) sebab muhriz nak main kat luar.Mmg tiap2 hari pon around 6pm akan baak die main bike kat luar.Kadang seronok sgt nak dekat maghrib baru nak masuk.Ni sosej roll utk Muhriz,since dah masuk 2 yrs nie boleh la makan adult food kan,sosej mama tak pandai buat sendiri,roti boleh la.So jadila sosej roll tak cantik nie hahaha,over baked satu pastu pecah pecah sebab wrap rapat sgt.dah lama sgt tak buat roti,even ada breadmaker pon malas jugak.pastu ckp kat hubby tak pandai nak operate breadmaker tue sebab auf Deutsch(button semua in German,breadmaker nie angkut bawak balik dari sana) hahaha bila org tanye pandai speakang Deutsch laju pulak ckp dulu kat Purdue amik Deutsch level 5 =p

1130am,Muhriz is still in his lalaland.semlm tido 1am,bapak die dah pengsan dah kul 12,hubby penat sgt lah tue sebab selalunya die akan teman mama dan muhriz.Masuk tido still sama2 dah light off semua dah tapi budak ni kalau dah nak membuas,dalam gelap pon boleh aje,gigit kang!

Breastfeed is the best feed: Mission accomplished

Since Muhriz dah 2yrs and 2 day,boleh ke kira extended bfeeding dah?haha

Alhamdulillah Allah granted my wish yg satu nie,nak breastfeed muhriz for at least 2 years.Maybe diberi peluang utk jadi a stay at home mama memudahkan,maybe la kan.tapi i should be proud of myself too sebab bersungguh nak kasi breastmilk saja.

Ingat nak wean off tapi tak sampai hati,mama yg over i know.Rasanya only nursing mommies akan faham,the emotional attachment and bond develop along the journey is just amazing.Huhu ingat during his early days,which is the most critical period rasanya,period yg kite kene hang on kalau betul2 nak susukan anak.Awal2 tak mudah;tak pandai nak latch,pastu Muhriz sakit perut sebab mama makan jamu,makan itu ini.Then sekali nenen kadang sampai sejam tersengguk2 mama.Pastu ada record book utk tulis waktu pumping,amount etc.Dada tugas die basuh breastpump and storage bottles,every morning itu lah kerjanya kekeke.Then we got the hang of it,dah jadi macam 2nd nature for us,senang cite kalau nak nenen,mama boleh selak2 sambil bace buku ke makan ke kekeke.Glad we made it through baby!

I love getting close with Muhriz while nursing,masa nenen main rambut,korek hidung mama,korek telinga hehe.Sengih sengih,nenen sambil bercakap.Kalau nurse to sleep lagi lah,tido kaki tangan peluk mama.Since he sleeps in between me and hubby,kadang tangan kiri die korek mata mama,tangan kanan tarik janggut hubby.

So all of us need time to adjust,hubby pon mesti la kan nanti malam2 die kene bgn buat susu huhu.Sedih weh nak cerai susu ni orang kata.Buat slow slow la kot jadi ingat nak introduce fresh milk for him dulu maybe 1 cup a day ke.I would like to go with fresh milk first instead of formula.Why?Mmg la iklan formula milk nie kedegang kedugung ada DHA,Gangliosides and what not,tapi don't worry those nutrients we believe should be suffice from breastmilk and food intake.So pemakanan mama and Muhriz kena jaga.Since kenit nie mmg dirumah dijaga dgn rapi penuh kasih sayang oleh mama duploh pat jam insyaAllah terkawal.Formula milk sekarang macam2 from murah to mahal,semua claim itu dan ini.Kalau beli yg murah ada yg rasa guilty anak tak cukup khasiat,hahh kalau anak itu dibagi susu ibu kan tiada masalah.Tapi ada masalah juga,my son is one picky eater remember?One day boleh boleh habiskan nasi or pasta,the next day tamau makan anything else except chicken bites.So tgk la macamane,try dulu kasi fresh milk.

Kalau boleh next child pon nak fully breastfeed for 2 years juga.Kene set mind awal awal,sebab breastfeeding is learned and you need to work for it.Bukan senang2 je nak selak menyelak nie kan mommies?hui hui

My monster shushu!

Muhriz turns 2

Happy Birthday little one,

you're just as bright as the sun.

It's so fun watching all you do

know that mama and dada are so very proud of you

There's something about you little boy,

that you always set our hearts aglow

We're just so fortunate that you're ours.

You're a big thing to us we just have to make a fuss!hahaha

Happy 2nd birthday Muhriz,mama and dada love you so very much!Semoga membesar jadi anak yg soleh,berjasa pada agama dan keluarga,cemerlang di dunia dan akhirat insyaAllah.

Zoom out the last photo.Call us cheapskate,but we love homemade food.When you cook for your love ones,you made it with passion and love,that's how special it is.So when Muhriz was having his afternoon nap(2 hours mind ya) hubby and i berpusing2 kat dapor buat a carrot cake for him.Elok je kitorang nak bukak puasa,die jaga.Presented him this cake and you should see his face,macam terkujat like "eh mana dtg cake ni?"hahaha he didn't even have a bite(biasa la anak mak picky sket bab makan nak nasik je) but enjoyed main potong2 then....he dissappeared for a min,came back with a ball then threw the ball exactly on the cake yeahhh.Happy birthday again sayang,may you have fun and wonderful years ahead.
