Baby very first books!

Reaching the 4th month, I feel much much better now. Since I have been home during weekends for long, we have decided to go for "Big Bad Wolf" book fair. Spending almost 3 hours there, manage to get some children books for my little ones. I know it may sound weird to some for reading to baby before he is born but to me I do believe in education from the heart, which means we can start anything that build good bonding between mummy/daddy and baby. In this matter, I don't see it as to make my baby to be a genius but to have a great bonding and communication between us. :)

Starting from baby 3 months old, hubby and I took turn to read for him. It feels so much love when baby responded to hubby's voice. Other than reading, before bed I'll play Mozart and Beethoven music to him. Time to time, am as well play Surah-surah Nabi to calm him down. All downloaded to my HP so that I can play them at anytime anywhere!

Until today, I still couldn't believe that I have my baby in me now. It's just so wonderful until I've forgotten all the pains I've been through during my pregnancy. Sick also happy, drowsy also happy, headache also happy, even vomit also happy. See, how great a baby can brings to our life. It's just so amazing. 

Baby, mummy and daddy couldn't wait to see you. Grow healthy ok. Love you, my baby boo!


All for you my little ones!



My 1st Trimester

Recalled back my first 3 months, it's actually gave me a little goosebumps. Not that terrible but it was not easy. However the funniest thing is after the day doctor confirmed that I am expecting, I suddenly became so sick! hahaha Tiba-tiba I feel dizzy, nausea, feel like vomiting all the time! My manja-ness started already, uhukss!

I guess it is really half real sickness and half manja also la. I actually started with bad headache. Night sleep become a nightmare when I need to ensure the 'minyak kapak' is next to me. Then a week later, I started to puke out whatever I eat and it get worsen when it followed with heartburn. Oh the heartburn part is seriously unbearable and terrible! After every meal, I feel the heartburn and drowsy at the same time. So to ease the pain, I supposedly make myself vomit a bit then it feels much better after that. Am not sure if all preggy do feel the same as I feel so hot all the time too!

During my first trimester we spent almost every weekend at home as am not well and being in crowded place makes me more sick. Luckily my kaka okey with it cause not just us cannot go out, even him need to totally cut down his lepak time with his friends due to my manja-ness. :p One thing am proud with my baby is he is actually quite sporting cause during my first 3 months, since chinese pantang not to share the news too early so still do my outdoor job running here and there. Rushing up and down to the Immigration office at Putrajaya for teacher's work permit, went to Tax office and EPF office were my routine. Thanks God for giving me a good health to still continuously doing my work and protect my journey too. Thanks baby for always being there with mummy..You're truly mummy's strength, Love.

I'm 12 weeks old already, mummy!



We're pregnant!

Holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Finally I'm here again! Yeah it's been like more than half year I didn't update anything in my blog oo kan..oh well..since today I am quite free as teachers were off due to haze, so I try to write something la ok. (sound so terpaksa oo kan..) To be frank, since am expecting I am damn lazy..all I want is to sleep sleep and sleep! =_=

Oh how time flies... I am already in my 31 weeks today and I never even blog anything about my wonderful journey right..sigh..again hormones kicks and I am just so lazy, tired and sleepy. To start the story with, am actually found out am expecting when am about 2 weeks late. Since we have been trying for quite some time so I didn't do any test as normally it will turn up negative. So that night since I still have some left over HPT, I cincai test la. 

1st test---> Without a second, super clear double lines! My eyes turned big! Still, I couldn't believe what I saw. So, I continued with second test. 

2nd test---> Super duper clear double lines!! Oh God!! I was so surprise & at that very moment my tears started to drop, very heavily. I really don't know what to feel cause for the very first time I saw double lines among all the tests I have done for the past one year. It's not easy to accept the truth, even it is a happy one. Feelings mixed up I have. Only God knows how thankful and happy I am at that moment but at the same time I didn't know what to expect. I actually started to worry if I am ready for this, or if I am actually prepared enough to be a mother. I mean a good mother.

I wiped my tears. The first thing popped out in my mind is to share the good news with my very close buddy. I sent him my positive HPT with a smile icon. He was so excited! So do me! Again, my tears dropped. Actually that night both hubby and I were out with our friends separately, so when I reached home he was actually still with his friends. Initially, I was thinking to get JJ & Ean to gotcha him then after that surprise him with the good news,  but once he reached home thing turned up differently when I suddenly cried and hugged him without a word. He seems understand what am I feeling at that time (not this time baby! haha). So as usual he told me to stay positive and we can always try again and again. I then pointed him a nicely wrapped box (with ribbon of course!) and asked him to open it. Without asking further, he opened the box and..........SURPRISE!! Looking at his priceless reaction, I started to laugh and cry at the same time. We took quite a while hugging each other, dropping our happy tears for God's precious gift. It's just a wonderful night.

The night, we couldn't even rest our eyes. We were so excited and keep talking about our little ones. Thinking of what should we buy, what should we name him/her, what should we do during this pregnancy, bla and bla..We keep chitchatting until dawn appeared then very early morning had our breakfast and went to do check up to reconfirm the news. Thanks God, everything goes well. I was in my 5 weeks at that time! 

Am so grateful to finally see that happy face, priceless!

We're pregnant!

Dear Aaron, words just couldn't explain how beautiful is this. Your voice is enough to sing out your pain my dear. Remember no matter what happen, God always with us. Be strong my dearly. You know you always have us, your forever friends. May Aunt Jenny will get well soon. Our prayers always be with you and your mum, Aaron. God bless.

It's been a while..

It's been a while before I really sit down and browsed back what do I have in my blog. For no reason, I spent my whole morning reading. In fact, it has no longer been my habit since working with GIS. I know I've been putting so much focus on work lately since am just shifting to a new field. It's fine, at least at this point.

Oh well, it's October already. Somebody has thrown a 'regular' question on my 2013 resolution. As usual, I do not know what she expect me to answer but am apparently not the type who believes in such norm. To me, that's nonsense without any aims or actions. Talking about resolution, people will normally relate it with ambition or dreams. People around me will sometimes feel that I am overly ambitious, and that my aims are pie in the sky. (Well said!) but this is not likely to change me, not at all. I’d always rather aim high and take on the adventure of life than get to the end of the road regretting that I didn't have a good go at making my dreams come true. However, one of my primary lessons in life will be related to this. I know I have always wanting the best for me and people around me, sometimes I get so frustrated towards things that for me it not supposed to be in that way (Jesse, no such thing in the World should be in one specific way, babe. Wake up!) Yeah I think I really need to learn that there are limits to what I am capable of, and how to recognize them. Making sure my goals are actually practical enough to be achieved is another side of this one.

Lately I have read this book named "Your personality is your key in life". Love the book. It says something good about the Sagi. Basically, those who born as Sagi has good personal growth and understanding. That's their key aspect. The Sagi's hate the idea of waltzing blindly through life without understanding, or finding its meaning. This seems like a bit of a contradiction because I am quite a part animal too, but I do have this deeper side to my character. Best thing is the Sagi is born as half man and half beast, as the book said. That describes the way they live their lives perfectly. Remember the Centaur has a bow and arrow and is aiming at the sky? That is obviously shows that they are predominantly high ambitions. Oh ya, do you believe in timing? If you have a great sense of timing, you will know just when to make your move. Trust your gut feeling, so call on it when you need it.

Let's talk about my life then. Nothing has changed as we were still remain the same. I would say I am lucky that I am so positive in life. Because of that, I see the possibilities as endless. I never take no for an answer and i always see the cup as half full, not half empty. My genuine interest in getting to the truth and be part of whatever environment I am in, but frankly I am easily bored if the mental stimulation is missing, especially in work and relationship. Lots of people don’t get where am  coming from. They said I am serious about relationships, but I need a ton of stimulation and variety to keep love alive. Shall I say it is because of I like to try something fresh and new? Ahah...Wink Wink~

And now is work. Do I like my job? Yes? No? Maybe. About 5 weeks at new place, all I can say is fun, fun to see different type of characters.  Too early to judge. Basically I am fine with everything, yeah I mean everything. As long as I am allowed to make choices about how I do my work, or else I won’t work at my best. I rely very much on  myself, and if I was given a free hand, I’ll do great work, I hope people will see this side of my personality at its best.

Baby? (Toughest topic ever!)
I already sent our little prayers to the Almighty, guess He is yet to receive it. Or maybe He is busy looking into the database, searching for a beautiful Ritchee baby for us. :) I know our day sure will come, just need a little more patience + passion. Nothing much will hold  us back, and even when the odd adversity arises I’ll see it as part of my  learning curve and accept it with a smile. At least I am blessed to have an annoying yet a loving ones. 

To all my friends out there who is trying like us, keep on trying. Never ever give up.  Believe in your destiny and be glad with whatever comes to you. I learn to accept whatever possibilities that life may offer to me, that's not only making me a simple yet happy person, it does makes me feel so beautiful inside. :)
Have a pleasant evening, u'ol!
