surprise, surprise!

Assalamualaikum wbt

For  hubby's 29th birthday, I did something (extra) special for him. A surprise!!!

When everything is at your fingertips, it's easy breasy  to plan something special without having your loved one realizing it. How did I get it done? GOOGLE je la.. hihihi


So, I arranged fresh flowers delivery straight to hubby's office in Putrajaya.

I think the roses are simply gorgeous. Siapa kata isteri tak boleh hantar bunga kepada si suami?Boleh je okey :-)
The best part was, my hubby didn't expect this coming!
So memang surprise sangat-sangat laaaaa


              

SPM of SPM

Assalamualaikum wbt

I'm sure almost all teachers wouldn't want to invigilate SPM. For some explicit and implicit reasons, I am one of them :-)

Guess what? it's my turn this year! 

Tahniah & Syabas kepada diri sendiri!!

cuti lagi!

Assalamualaikum

Today (10.10.13) I'm on my 4th day of cuti for this week. I was supposed to start working today as I mentioned in my previous post. Indeed, Allah knows best. We can plan, but He is the ultimate decider. 

Last night, Naufal was on high fever. His body temperature was really high as compared to previous nights. He was cranky and did not sleep well throughout the night. I put on the cool fever patch on his forehead to prevent the temperature from rising. It helped but my little hero still felt uncomfortable. He woke up for about every hour! Poor little boy. I didn't mind staying awake just to make sure he's in good condition. It's not easy to be in such condition especially when daddy is away working outstation. Above all, I'm so glad that i'm somehow still staying with my parents. They are my pillars of strength. Somehow with their presence I know that I'm not alone. Mak and abah helped out in so many ways . Can I be considered as anak manja? Nah, ni rezeki masing-masing. Nak manja-manja of course la dengan mak abah sendiri kan?? kan?? =)

Alhamdulillah. 

Thank you again and again and again. 

Mak & Abah.

Demam campak : Natural remedy vs modern remedy?

Assalamualaikum wbt

Dah bersawang blog mommy brella ni huhu. Memang x done nak update cerita baru lagi terkini di sekolah mahupun di rumah. Tapi hari ni memang curi sikit masa nak update pasal demam campak.

oh, anak ku kena demam campak pula huhuh. Sebernarnya, x terperanjat sangat bila Naufal kena demam campak sebab dekat nursery ramai baby dah kena. Nak di jadikan cerita, naufal belum lagi kena inject for demam campak so memang mudah la dijangkiti virus especially bila dihantar ke pusat asuhan.

According to mak, it's ok bila Naufal kena campak time kecil sebab kalau dah besar lagi bisa and merenyam. In my opinion, lagi challenging nak jaga a toddler yang kena demam campak sebab dia tak paham kenapa ada bintat2 merah satu badan and rasa merenyam siang malam! Paling dahsyat bila dia start menggaru, habis luka kudis-kudis yang dah mula nak mengering huhuhu. Bila dah luka, lagi la rasa sakit + merenyam + tak selesa kan?? Ya Allah, memang mencabar sangat ujian Allah ni.

Bila anak kena demam campak, memang x tunggu panjang dah..terus bawa ke klinik kanak2 berdekatan. Selama ni kalau ada apa2 masalah kesihatan berkaitan Naufal memang saya dan en.suami akan bawa ke Klinik Kanak-kanak Taman Melawati berjumpa dengan Dr. Hasmawati. So far so good. Naufal memang serasi dengan doktor ni. Bila doktor tgk jer bintik2 merah dekat badan Naufal (kalau tak silap dah hari ke 3), doktor terus confirmkan yang bintik merah tu adalah demam campak. Antara ubat-ubat yang diberi ubat antivirus, tahan gatal, demam, krim sapu. Mommy dapat la MC sehari (doktor ni memang strict, dia memang payah la nak bagi MC kat mana2 parents tp kali ni sebab demam campak dapat la sehari ) ok la kan, better than nothing. Memang ada spare CRK (cuti rehat khas) kalau ada emergency, tambahla lagi dua hari dkt situ utk jadi nurse di rumah menjaga anak yang x sihat. Kebetulan pula, en. suami kena outstation seminggu uwarhhhhh.....cobaan cobaan (-_-)

Seingat saya, dulu waktu kena demam campak tak da la pula pergi klinik. Memang mak guna cara tradisional je nak bagi sembuh demam campak. Mandi air daun mambu dicampur air penawar, sapu bedak sejuk. Bila tidur malam, letak daun mambu bawah kain dan baring atas kain tu. So bila naufal kena demam campak ni , ada macam pendapat yang diberi oleh kawan-kawan dan saudara mara. Rawatan moden vs rawatan tradisional, yang mana satu pilihan kami??

Setelah berbincang panjang lebar dengan suami, kami sepakat untuk menggunakan kedua2 kaedah moden + tradisional. Bukan tak mempercayai kaedah tradisional, tapi ada sebab kenapa ubat demam campak diwujudkan. Kalau zaman dulu memang la boleh anak dibiarkan selama 1-2 minggu dirumah tanpa sebarang ubat. Sekarang memang susah nak guna kaedah macam ni, cuti yang ada pun cukup2...kesian sgt kalau anak dihantar ke nursery dalam keadaan masih xsembuh sepenuhnya. Ubat yg diberi doktor mungkin dapat mempercepatkan rawatan dalaman dan luaran. Ada yang mungkin bersetuju, ada yang mungkin tidak. Wallahualam. Kami bukan doktor, tp kami memang bertawakkal semoga apa sahaja langkah yang diambil akan beri kesan positif kepada hero kesayangan kami.

Alhamdulillah, dah masuk hari ke 5 luka dan bintik di badan Naufal sudah mula mengering. Syukur sangat-sangat. Naufal pun dah makin kurang menggaru mungkin sebab dia dah tak larat nak fikir kenapa la banyak sgt bintik-bintik kat badan dia hehe. Esok mommy dah kena masuk kerja balik! Mujurlah maktok dah volunteer nak cuti dua hari (khamis dan jumaat) utk jaga cucunya seorang ni. Ya Allah, memang tak terbalas jasa mak sejak dari lepas bersalin sampai sekarang! terlalu banyak yang mak dah korbankan. Thank you so much mak. huhuhu

tanda-tanda awal.. bintik merah berair..

Nampak makin kurus kan? huhuh sedihnya

Walaupun demam campak, anak mommy maintain active siang dan malam! Alhamdulillah. Selera makan pun tak terganggu

p/s : Jangan keliru antara Hand Foot mouth disease (HFMD) dan demam campak. Kalau bintik naik di kawasan tapak kaki dan tangan, selera makan anak terganggu, itu tanda HFMD. Demam campak selalunya bermula dengan demam dan naik bintik-bintik merah di kawasan badan kecuali di tapak tangan dan kaki. Bila dah masuk fasa hujung2 baru binitk akan naik di bahagian tapak kaki dan tangan. Wallahualam. Sekadar berkongsi info sebab sebelum ni Naufal pun dah pernah kena HFMD. 

#safety first

Assalamualaikum wbt

I'm sure my son, I have set my mind not to wait longer.

This is certainly what's best for u.

whether or not u like it, mommy and daddy have agreed & decided that,

 it's better to be safe than sorry.

pasrah mode agak2nya hihihih

I still remembered when many people started to bug question me about Naufal' growth..

*eh, xboleh jalan lagi? dah setahun kan?*  (kalau xboleh lagi apa masalah? :p)

*what? gigi pun sebatang xdok lagi?* (i'm happy coz this boy is still breastfeeding, no teeth yet means yay for mommy laaaa hikhik)

*anak *** dah boleh berjalan/ ada gigi before setahun...* (erk, like I kesah? ;p)

*lambat juga eh..* (lambat aponyo??)

hehehe please ignore some of the comments too, I was having this monologue moment jer.

I dare not say such remarks in front of others kut hahahahah

errrrrrr.... maybe some have forgotten that baby grows at different rate.

So, I know my lil hero is not lagging behind or lambat ke apa.

Seriously, I've been embracing every single second watching him growing in front of my eyes *teary eyes* sob..sob..sob..

Indeed, you are special my son.

No matter what happen,

mommy and daddy love u unconditionally.

muahxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

after a year, still in 'bertatih' mode

and now...

hey hey everyone,
guess what I can do now?
Mommy and daddy do not need to go to gym anymore!
muahahahahahahaha

expect the unexpected

Assalamualaikum wbt

Can u guess what happened after our plane from Alor Setar to KL took off?
Right after this picture was taken?

Naufal vomited.

Ok, not once, but it was THREE times!!
1st time, as the plane lanned.  landed

2nd time, in the ERL on our way to KL sentral

3rd (lastly!), as soon as I stepped out from abah's car, which was in front of our home. 

We were not quite sure why Naufal vomited but then it could probably relate to his empty stomach. He didn't have his dinner yet when we arrived  at the airport because he's been sleeping. Mommy and daddy were busy packing. (ok, it's mommy's fault for being   ignorant forgetful). So the conclusion was Naufal could probably hungry and his stomach was empty too. *kesian* huhuh 

******

When a boy vomited on you, how would you response to it? luckily, I was not panicked especially when hubby was there to save the day too.  Considering that we were travelling on a plane, I knew that I had almost everything prepared in naufal's bag . (Extra napkin, extra shirts and pants for naufal). However, I forgot something else that was equally important...

my own clothes (and tudung too) (-__-)

My pants were wet and my blouse was partially wet too. Actually, I'm used to that kind of situation but having said that the situation was really different when you're using public transport; the ERL.  I could notice other passengers trying to cover their nose. Well, it's a baby's vommit, nothing I can do stop the unpleasant smell from spreading  in the fully air conditioned train. huhuhuhu

***

I've read so many tips about the Do's and Don'ts when travelling with kids/ babies.
As new parents, I believe we must equip ourselves with essential knowledge especially if  it's

related to children. As the saying goes ' sediakan payung sebelum hujan'!

Babies/ toddlers are unpredictable. Sometimes. we might think that we have prepared ourselves for any unseen circumstances. But still, when things happen we will realize that there are so many things we still need to learn. Most importantly, we must stay calm (or pretend to) especially the unpleasant moment happens in the public eye. 

By the end of the day, I still felt grateful because Naufal was alright. And that does matter for me!
He didn't get cranky or even crying when he vomited. Alhamdulillah.

mommy's boy is always a hero!!

Bila Naufal beraya

Assalamualaikum

Alhamdulillah, syukur ke atas segala nikmat yang tidak terhingga.

Saya dan keluarga ingin mengucapkan ..'

SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI

MAAF ZAHIR & BATIN

Semoga Syawal yang tiba membuka lebih banyak pintu kemaafan di samping  mengeratkan tali silaturrahim sesama kita.

Tahun lepas kami sekeluarga beraya di Johor bahru. Tahun ini di Kedah!! Woo hoo.

Nasib baik la dah beli tiket flight awal2 sbb mmg lebuhraya utara-selatan sangat2 'tersumbat' dengan ribuan kereta yang berpusu-pusu nak pulang ke kampung halaman masing-masing.  Bagi yang naik kapal terbang (tak kira la MAS/ MAlindo Air/ Firefly/ Air Asia), boleh dikatakan full house!! Personally, from my observation skrg ni semakin ramai yang memilih pengangkutan udara sbb dapat avoid traffic jam & menjimatkan masa =) Bayangkanlah kalau ada anak kecil tapi tersangkut dalam kesesakan lalulintas untuk berjam-jammmmm lamanya? kesian si kecil.
Tapi sebenarnya, pengalaman balik kampung menaiki kenderaan masing-masing lebih nostalgic sebab feel  balik beraya lebih terasa, Normal la kalau jem kan kalau sesiapa yang duduk area kl ni. So, kalau dh tahu akan bersesak waktu dalam perjalanan, kita kena la bijak rancang perjalanan. Pastikan kereta berada dalam keadaan mantop! (iklan ini tidak ditaja oleh mana2 syarikat yer hihihih)

Seronok bila dapat beraya di kampung belah suami. Since Naufal pun dah boleh berjalan, keadaan dah jadi lebih mudah kalau nak dibandingkan dengan tahun lepas (waktu tu Naufal baru nak masuk 4-5 bulan). Asyik berdukung je anak mommy sorang time tu hihih. Bila si kecil dah dapat kaki, seronok la dia ke ceruk sana ke ceruk sini...fuh mencabar nak main kejar-kejar time2 semua org tgh sibuk beraya :p 

Jom tgk gamba raya keluarga Adam Naufal tahun ni :-)
