Layan anak-anak

My Adam is now of the age yang tengah giler Transformer and Ultraman. We took him and my pretty Alya to the Curve two weeks ago coz ada promotion on Transformer's merchandise.

I was the one yang beriya suruh hubby bawa the kids to the Curve. Sampai sana Adam dah sibuk nak beli Bumblebee and Optimus Prime (abis dia promote to Tok Mama and Tok Papa of his intent. Oh ye that is the day we came back from BP. Punya semangat, noon sampai KL terus kerah hubby bawa pi the Curve). Well of course banyak Bumblebee and Optimus Prime but harga? Ya Allah, mahalnya coz Adam nak yang big one. He even dah usung one Bumblebee priced at RM200+. My hubby try pujuk beli yang priced at RM50+ but he insisted on buying the big one je. End up, Mr Hubby told him since Mummy is the one yang nak bawa Adam, suruh la Mummy bayar. Sabar je.

Mummy bukan kedekut ye but then beli macam tak berbaloi coz he is too young to appreciate that expensive item (ye la my iPad2 dah abis sompek after 3 days of purchase coz dia dah jatuhkan berkali. From tangga lagi tu). On the spot idea, "Adam nak Transformer ke you want baju Ultraman?". Guess mana superhero yang menang?

Huhhuuhhh Ultraman. Selamat duit I. End up belikan dia a pair of baju Ultraman priced at RM15 je.

Adam's Bday Party - Adam's Story

Tok Papa and Tok Mama came to KL on the 16th nak fetch my Mummy In's domestic helper. So since they will drop by to visit me, Mummy and Ayah decided to have a Bday Party for me. I am a stay-at-home baby so Mummy and Ayah tot this will be good time for me to socialise. (as if I am not friendly enough)


Mummy took a day leave on the 16th Jan (eh Mummy said sorry coz seriously dah lama dia tak update about work. Baru satu je rasanya. Next post will be about office life.) Preparation day. As soon as Ayah off to office, Mummy, Bibik and me naik kereta and off to Pasar TTDI. Ingatkan Friday tak ramai orang but the market is quite full that day. All the stall owners yang Mummy biasa pergi heran why Mummy shop on Friday and extra banyak pulak tu? Hehehe because of me Mummy sanggup amik cuti.


On our way back from pasar, Mummy singgah Baiti's for breakfast. Hem sure Mummy tahu kalau balik sure tak makan ni. Kesian nanti Bibik lapar plak.


Hheehh as usual although sejam lebih skit je kat pasar but my tummy dah lapar macam setahun tak makan. Balik rumah dah 11 lebih skit. Mummy shower, Bibik feed me and kemas barang dapur. Hem Mummy's boy memang tak pandai tidur lama. 12 plus je Adam dah bangun. Again my tummy minta makan. Siap je Adam makan, Mummy told Bibik tak payah masak or kemas rumah, jom pi Tesco sambung beli barang for Party.


From 1 till 3 plus we shopped at Tesco. Nuggets, drummets, cordials, mineral water etc. Mummy ni macam nak beli satu pasar. Nak balik Mummy singgah Chicken Rice Shop beli lunch for Mummy and Bibik. Nak makan dah tak sempat coz my tummy dah hungry. Mummy and Bibik said that my muncung dah sedepa. Besides, Ayah dah call nak ambil pi Gynea appointment. Macam race juga la Mummy. Dalam kereta Adam dah livid. Saja je throw tantrum and mengamuk pasal dah lapar. Teruk la Mummy and Bibik ni. Kenapa tak bawa food lebih? Tapi baru je 2 jam lebih dah lapar again padahal baru je Bibik bagi makan bubur nasi before we left for Tesco. heheheh


Sampai je rumah Mummy suruh Bibik and Adam naik dulu. Bibik sampai pening mana pintu rumah coz Adam tak boleh diam dah. Kesian Mummy bawa barang dalam 2 trolley tolak sorang je. Masa Mummy sampai Adam tengah susu. Bibik dah bagi makan pun. Cepatkan sebab rasanya paling lama pon kalau tak silap baru 15 minutes Mummy turunkan kat lobby. Adam senyum manis kat Mummy. Hopefully Mummy tak ingat tadi Adam marah2.


Mummy terus ganti skirt and off we go to Klinik Dr Hamid with Ayah. Tadi Adam mengantuk but nampak Ayah terus segar. But then kena berlakon dulu la. So Adam duduk atas lap Ayah konon2 Adam nak tido. Jadi Ayah kesian nak pass Adam kat Mummy. Sampai klinik malas dah nak berlakon. Adam tegur and senyum kat semua orang. Dah tak mengantuk dah. Perut pon dah kenyang.


Time Mummy jumpa Dato' Dr Hamid, Adam dah memang 100% alert. Adam minta Dr dukung. Ohh ni la Dr yang dulu sambut Adam keluar dari perut Mummy. Jadi Adam terus senyum sana senyum sini biar Dr kata Adam good baby. Bila Mummy buat ultrasound, Adam nampak Adik and Adam lambai baby. Tapi baby buat dek je. Boring la. Ayah and Mummy plak requested for the Dr to confirm the gender. Lamanya Dr cari pasal Adik tak mau diam. Tengah Dr pusing nak cari position Adam dah restless. Hem Ayah kena bawa Adam keluar la gamaknya. Then Dr confirm, adik Adam will be a girl. Hem Mummy terus decided nak namakan and call the baby Iris. :) Hahah Ayah nak nama Melayu tapi Mummy kata takpa la 2nd name still ada kan? Nanti dah nak bersalin baru fikir. Mummy kata Adam dulu pun macam tu. Tau je boy, Mummy terus borak and panggil Adam masa dalam perut. Dah nak bersalin baru Ayah pilih nama Syahmi.


Malam tu Tok Mama and Tok Papa sampai with Bibik Wiwik and Nek Moi. Bestnya rumah Adam ramai orang. Adam tak mahu tidur but Mummy suruh tidur jugak. Takpa biar Adam menangis dulu. Biar semua orang tahu Adam kena paksa. Tapi Adam dah sleepy la.... Zzzzzzzz


17th morning lepas breakfast, Mummy and Tok Papa keluar ambil trolley and goodies bags from office. Mummy cakap jangan naughty sebab Mummy nak singgah TMC beli ice and few other barang. Tapi Adam mengantuk so Adam tidur je time Mummy and Tok Papa keluar. Mummy sempat pi Party Shop cari pump baloon. Bibik pulak dari pagi dah start memasak for lunch and soto.


Almost 1, Mummy turun. Mummy kata meja dah sampai. Ayah pun turun ke pool siapkan sound system. Kang senyap boring plak. Tapi Adam duduk rumah dengan Tok Mama and Tok Papa.


4 pm semua orang still menyiapkan last minute prep. Masa Aunty Mar and Aunty Farah sampai hehehe Mummy still tak abis siap lagi. 4.30pm belum ramai orang. Ayah Uda Adam and family dah arrived. Alamak kesiannya takda orang ke ek? Tapi Alhamdulillah lepas tu ramai tetamu Adam. Adam pon happy la tengok ramai yang ada. Socialising time!!! Mummy bawa Adam jumpa kawan-kawan Mummy. Adam ada ramai kawan. Adam jalan-jalan kat party tapi Mummy, Ayah, Tok Mama and Tok Papa and semua orang asyik perhati Adam je. Nak pergi pool pun susah. :(

Mummy Jej belikan Adam cake besar. Bentuk Car. Cantik. Tapi Ayah dengan Mummy suruh Adam potong the cake. Sayangnya. Mummy kan dah belikan cuppies nape nak potong cake?

Mummy Jej ada plan games. Kak Izzati pun dah siap wrapkan all the present tapi since kawan2 Adam dah masuk pool so tak main games but Mummy bagi the presents to all yang dah nak balik.

Adam pun main in the pool with friends. Adam ada pelampung car yang sangat besar. Mummy Jej belikan dulu time pi Famosa. Masa tu Adam tak sihat so cannot swim. Uncle Syed tolong tiupkan the pelampung. Adam enjoy main air dalam pool but bila Adam try nak rasa air pool (Adam tepuk air and jilat) semua orang cakap "out you go" kat Adam. Kenapa ek?





Adam had a wonderful Birthday Party. Sedih when all friends dah balik. Tak apa nanti CNY Mummy kata Adam balik BP. Uncle Mal pun plan nak buat BBQ. Jadi Adam can play with Abang Asyraf and Kak Icha la time tu.


Malam Adam penat sangat. Adam buka dulu all prezzie. Banyaknya prezzie Adam. Lepas tu Mummy tidurkan Adam, Ayah peluk Adam sambil baca paper. Nite all... Zzzzzzz

Adam - 1st Bday

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday Adam Syahmi,

Happy Birthday to you.

Yup my baby dah a year today. Sekejap je. If we sang birthday song to him he will make his malu-malu face as per pic below. A year today and he can walk already. With Ayah dia suka lawan berleter. With Mummy normally he is more mild mannered.

Hem, my baby dah one today. Big boy already. His 1st Birthday present was from my Bi's boss... Heheh jangan salah faham, we all dah beli prezzie for him but we want to keep them till party day. No gambar Adam and Ayah tgh belek his 1st Bday prezzie.

Bi and I kerja harini but we all dah bawa dia ke Aquaria semlm and will celebrate his Birthday with family and friends next Saturday. How's our visit to Aquaria? At first Adam was quite excited with all the fishes but then bila dia teringat his food and nap time hem muncung panjang sedepa. Boleh gantung hanger rasanya.

Lately Adam sleep makin lewat. Yesterday he's still his usual bubbly self at 11pm. Alamak Mummy dah sakit kepala. My normal time dalam 10pm dah mengantuk. Then I masuk tidur with Adam. Adam malam mengempeng (bahasa jawa kot ni. Comfort breastfeeding). Mummy dah takda milk at this stage coz of my pregnancy.

Last nite Adam buat hal. When we tried to coax him to sleep, dia try his new teeth (baru 2 je) and gigit Mummy. Bila I tak nak bagi, dia buat action as if nak tido but then once I bagi my breast, dia gigit dgn jayanya. He really tot that I was playing with him and gave me cheeky smile. 3rd or 4th attempt memang I dah tak boleh tahan. Lepas dia gigit terus masuk toilet menangis. Sakit ooo. Tak sampai hati nak cry in front of him. Ye lah budak belum setahun bukan faham pun. Bila Adam tengok Mummy takda dia menangis beriya baru realised that I was not joking and seriously hurt kot. I think he can sense it coz dia sedih betul masa I left our bed to comfort myself.

Buka pintu bilik Ayah tgh pujuk Adam but dia menangis beriya siap tears lagi. I kuatkan semangat juga try feed him again from the other side (which is dah sore sebab dia dah try his teeth the day before). This time maybe he knew that I am serious so dia suck proper and tak bite lagi. Tak sampai seminit rasanya dia terus tido. Maybe dia tunggu his Birthday (12.08am) but seriously I dah tak tahan. Nak kerja lagi harini sape sanggup berjaga?

Question:

1. I plan nak continue breastfeed Adam when I deliver my second baby. Any experience and suggestion? I tak sampai hati nak 'sapih' at this stage.

2. Collostrum keluar bila ek? If I let Adam continue with his comfort sucking will my 2nd baby get her share of collustrom? (hehehe I guna female reference coz during my last visit Dr kata maybe girl. Our next visit this coming Friday - 16th hopefully can be sure by then coz I like to communicate with my baby guna nama. Adam dulu dari dalam perut memang I panggil dia Adam.)

3. Eh anyone pernah baca ke yang soya will make your boy 'gay'? Betul ke? I check internet ada 1 study only that was done in 2006. Adam suka makan tauhu fa but now I takut dah nak bagi. Help!!!!

Holiday!!!!

On Christmas Day we took Adam out. Saje je nak expose our baby to the world. We did not send him to any playschool so tak mahu la nanti my baby jadi katak bawah tempurung. But to tell you the truth, Adam ni jenis tak tahu takut orang. Very friendly. In fact in our building ni, the guards knew him by name. Siap boleh panggil2 lagi and he will smile. And kalau time keletah dia datang he will even ikut the guards and refused me when I tried to get him back.

Anyway back to our outing, we took him out to Sunway Pyramid. Hem not really good choice considering the holiday since car park really full. Luckily Sunway's car park ni kira intelligent car park with green light on top of lot yang kosong. Mata tajam je cari green light. Rezeki Adam agaknya tak sampai setengah jam jumpa one (kira ok tu dari berjam cari tempat nk park). Tapi tau je la Adam, baru je sampai dah tarik muka coz kena naik stroller. Uwa dia dah heavy now. Tak larat nak carry. His Ayah selalu manjakan so dukung dia but then time Ayah lenguh and Mummy kena take over semput nafas gak. Especially now ni when baby dah makin heavy. Bawa 2 anak sekali. Oppps tak bagitau yet ek that I am now 18 weeks pregnant with our second. I really follow Malaysia Boleh punya motto... hehehhe....



Tak sampai sejam kat Sunway mulut Adam dah bising. His baby gibberish la but the part mam amam tu clear gilos... La dah lapar.. For you all punya info Adam mulut nak penuh selalu. Pantang lambat makan skit start le bad mood. Hilang all his smiles. So kena stop dulu cari fruits. Beli nectarines and cherries sambil Ayah tolak stroller Mummy fed him. Happy sekejap. Stop at toy shop to get some presents for Adam's second cousin and dia dah boring minta keluar stroller. Jalan macam king kong la dia kat kedai toy tu. (Adam dah start jalan. Dah about a month tapi jenis tak sabar so at times step tak stable.)



We end up tak lama pon kat Sunway Pyramid. Hem Adam dah sibuk nak makan again. This time 3 keping biskut tiger habis. Dapat le pacify his tummy sekejap. Sempat le I bekejar ke Jusco beli cranberry sauce and some roti. Keluar Jusco sempat take few photos of Adam and a few of us depan Chrismas deco kat Sunway. Sorry ah in both pictures below Adam serious gilos. Perut dah lapar tak boleh nak tegur.






Anyway nak tanya all mum out there:

1. Adam now 11 months but active sgt. He likes to climb our sofa and he can really do that without any help. Is it normal for a baby so small to be that active?

2. Adam can never sit still for more than 5 minutes unles he's eating or sleeping at that time. Should I be concern that he's hyper?

3. Adam eats a lot. I make sure he gets good food (vegie porridge with beef or chicken or fish) and few fruits serving a day. However he don't really like his milk. He took about 3 to 4 ounce per feed and about 5 to 6 feeds a day. Is that sufficient for him? I used to breastfeed him (but now since pregnant susu tak ada) and I was told that the 3 to 4 ounces per feed for breastmilk should be ok but considering that now he took formula milk should I be concerned with his milk intake?
