Ayang, Happy Birthday..

By now, it's already a belated one.

He's 34 on Saturday (27 Sept), but still looks as good and yummy as before.

Being an insensitive wifey that I am. I forgot to wish him until the next day...tu pun dah tengahari...so cruel kan..so much for thinking/planning about it for weeks, then tiba harinya, aku hilang ingatan. Sungguh la tidak happening besday Ayang tahun ni kan ? Even masa beratur beli mkn sahur kat Mali's C0rner dari pkl 3 - 4.30am pun x terpikir nak wish.

Sori ye yang but I still love you muahha muahss. So ignore my once too often cold shoulder treatment given to you. Maklumla nak cecah 10 tahun ni mula la kan ada kureng sana sini, ampun...

No more cards for him, penat carik & beli mahal2 pastu jumpa kat ceruk mana2 ntah, takpun dh kena conteng ngan bebudak. That's him..so original, memang itulah dia Man L***q yang ku kenali sejak 15 tahun dulu.

To add a few degrees to my 'cruel'ness, I've yet to buy him any gift. Last year, it was so easy to buy him one because he was complaining about his sunglasses bla bla. Very obvious choice. But this year...waaah sungguh fenin mau decide. At first nak la cuba taktik surprise surprise gitu...tapi rasanya cannot lah. In the end I texted him and let him choose either 1 out of 3 options.

He got to choose whether he wants :

1. Wet suit (tp jgn asik gi dive tiggal anak bini plak)
2. Underwater casing for our Can0n Ixus 850IS (it's time, decided that we won't upgrade our P&S...next?)
3. THREE ( damn..3 pieces) ManU kit ( home, away and champion league final)

My toy boy decided that he wanted the 1st one so that I can save my ciput budget because he can get it at 20% discount through our good friend, Incik Labore. Selamat duit aku What a considerate hubby...Jangan dia pi ambik yang top range udah...tehehe

Yang sebenar2nya sbb hadiah no. 2 tak crucial sgt bcoz his sister dah ada. So nak gi dive trip boleh cilok je la cume her camera is a bit old tapi still ok. Yang last tu plak, the sister will buy during her Eur0pe trip next month, I just offered to sponsor but since duit dah bagi pon kat adiknya maka he said no need lah. Kiranya he'll buy the MU kits whether I buy for him or not.

Sebelum aku melalut lagi, this entry dedicated for you my dear hubby. I may not be the most romantic wife or the perfect mommy for our kids but I am one who will love you no matter what. We waded, struggled and survived the tough time when we were still bertenet and newly married. Now that you're wiser, sabar-er and xxx-er, I love you even more.

I will be praying and wishing that you'll be strong enuff to handle me and the kids until the next coming birthday. and the next one..and another one...till death do us part (sediakan bekas muntah kwn2). You complete me hahaha (ini ayat masuk movie Dark Kn1ght tau...ilang romantis zmn2 citer Jerry Magu1re...) .

SeLaMAt HarI Lah1R, aYanG

Salam Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir Batin

Assalamualaikum,

Since today ramai yang akan mula bercuti raya, nak ambik kesempatan ni untuk mengucapkan Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Maaf andai ada yang mengguris hati, baik dari mulut aku ataupun yang terpampang kat blog ni. Kot ada terkecik ati ke apa...mintak maaf byk2 ye...aku insan yang lemah...

Buat yang bakal menempuh perjalanan jauh, jadilah umat yang paling sabar ye...agak2 penat berenti kat Petronas minum Nescafe free. Takpun buat jek sendiri, masuk thermos. Kepada co-pilot, jalankan tugas anda...jangan tido semasa bertugas...

Kalau buat ketupat ke masak apa ke 1 day before raya, ingat daku dalam doamu sbbnya aku masih kat opis time tu...

Buat yang beraya di KL, jemput datang rumah kami kat Gombak nan indah permai ye...calling2 dulu tau...

Sepanjang Ramadhan...

Bulan puasa ni tak banyak xtvt sangat masa awal2. As I blogged earlier, I have to cook for the family. So memang hidup aku terisi dengan xtvt masak jelah...kenkadang pukul 2am baru siap..yelah dah mula masak pun lps Hannah tido, klu tak takde pslnya..Ada skali tu aku dh siapkan bahan2, pastu Hannah dah melalak nak nenen ! nak nenen ! aku pi la peram dia kejap. Ambik kau, ngan aku skali mengeram sampai pukul 2++, pastu pagi2 hari semerbak bau kari satu rumah hehe

Itu cerita 2 minggu yang pertama hehe pastu dh mula la adegan ngelat2 kan ?? Lauk pun main tunjuk2 je sbbnya mak dah boleh masak sikit2, lagipun bibik aku letak sana so mak boleh suruh2 je bibik buat apa yang patut.

11 SEPTEMBER 2008 : DE TEMPLER - CHINESE CUISINE

Ada skali kami dh lambat tapi cam mls nk buka kat KL, so kami gagah jugak balik Gombak, try mkn kat restoran ni. Klu ikut brochure dia, asalnya bisnes ni start ngan J1njang FishHead, pastu bila tgk halal chinese foodnyer potential diorang pun buat JV ngan muslim, maka jadiklah restoran itu. Ni kat tepi MRR2 Taman Melat1 tu ye. Kawasan yg makin meriah dan jam yg amats.

Masa ni kami main terjah jek sbb org tak ramai maklumlah dh nk berbuka sesangat.Ramai gak org, yg bestnya ada surau kt dalam tu..kat tiang kuning tu nampak tak tirai merah kat belakang ? Tapi x de telekung wakaf yek..so ahkak kena rempit balik umah

Kami order seafood tomyam, kangkung belacan, butter prawn ngan lemon chicken. Menu kami yg sgt tidak adventurous. Sumer ni size S ye kawan2..senak perut aku nak perabih. Yang paling cute, diorang letak nasik dlm tumbler cinonet nih so nasik memang panas2 lah. Penuh satu tumbler..makan 4 org punya portion

Taste-wise, biasa jek, so klu tgk harga, jatuh kategori mahal la, tapi prawn tu besar2. Kata org setakat nak cuba bolehla..byk lagi menu dia yg kami x try.

14 SEPTEMBER 2008 : KLCC - MISI MENCARI SEPATU RAYA

Misi ni sepatutnya nak cari kasut Hanis jek sebabnya budak bertuah 2 org lagi tu ada lagi kasut2 lain yang still ok. Pukul 5 blah dari rumah, sampai jek KLCC, kami terus buat reservation kat Dome (deposit rm50). Pastu start la merayau...Hanis nak something girly n pink and if possible got heels, ambik ko..anak dara aku dah nak melaram..

Dah naik juling kitorang tengok kasut, paling lama kat 1setan. Kat sini aku discover lagiks kasut baby made from kulit b@bi tapi takde label. So aku seperti biasa panggei staff, tapi depa x amek pot, maybe sbb dia non-muslim kot. boleh buat muka seposen tanya 'Ye ke ?' Ni bukan 1st time tau..so aku ckp kat budak melayu yg jaga kasut area situ 'Saya jlnkan t/jwb saya sbgai muslim, saya harap adik pun buat benda yg sama, ok'. So kawan2...klu korang gi beli kasut especially kasut baby kat 1setan careful yek...yg ni dia duduk sama rak ngan skechers & kickers, aku bleh lupa lak tajuk dia.

Dah penat, rehat la kejap kan ? hanis with her new haircut

Last2 kami pi butik N1KE, and tell u what..ooo laa laa..sungguh manyak kasut baru...Along terus tergoda dgn kasut ni. Masa kat atas rak aku ckp kat Man 'Yang ni ? Macam kain pelikat jek'. Tapi bila Hanis sarung...so cute, torus on. Tapi ada sorang budak kecik dari awal lagi, apa saja kasut yg Along try sumer dia try..pastu ckp 'na muat'. Tak muat la tuh...awek butik tu sgt cerdik, dia kata 'Saiz kecik pun ada bang !!'...Ibu dia buat2 x dengar...observe dulu muka 'banker', bila banker tanya Hannah size berapa, sepantas kilat aku check tapak kasut si kecik. Kat kaki Hannah kasut itu berganda-ganda kiutnya...haha

Kasut kain pelikat Hannah & Hanis

Pastu, dah beli yg berdua tu takkan x beli yg special sorang tuh...masa aku dok belek satu kasut neh, aku cam berkenan plak, berkenan untuk diri sendirik, wane brown with pink stitches...apakan daya ni kan kasut budak so sampai size 3 jek. Alaaaa...utk mengurangkan rasa kekuciwaan, aku suggest la kat Adan, yg wane biru..ni ok aperr....dia belek, teleng, juih...'Adan nak yang ijau'.

WHAT ? HIJAU ? BETUL ? HIJAU ? BUKAN MERAH ?

So hari itu dalam sejarah, setelah 5 tahun kami bertungkus lumus carik baju kasut segala benda MERAH maka tahun dia Adan dah TENANG...HIJAU....lalalala sgt selesa ye, kenapa la sampai size 3 jer..Tapi....nak jadik cerita, size Adan takde..pulaaaakk, so kami buat janji manis kata esok la ye...sib baik dia ok

Dah selesai beli, memang lega la...and just in time for iftar. Masa sampai kat meja dh ada sirap bandung telur katak menunggu. Sampai je ice-blended aku...kecur mak ooii...

Tengok air kat depan Hanis, dahaga la tu

Ada org happy dpt fav food, yg ni x tukar2 dr kecik


Yang ni plak, all rounder, sumer food org dia belasah.




Aku order chicken pie, Adan mushroom soup ngan garlic bread, Along setia dgn bolognese dia dan babah makan nasik (kat D0me?)


Suka tengok budak ni makan tau..sumer taram. Ni dh lepas mkn yg heavy, cicah biscotti ngan teh so babah was left with no drinks hehe

15 SEPTEMBER 2008 : CUTI SOPPING BAJU RAYA MAAAAA...

Kitorang memang x pernah bawak anak2 kalau shopping baju raya. Ambik cuti 1 hari, round la mana tempat yg nak pegi...so far okayla. takdela plak diorang memberontak tak nak pakai...cuma tang size je la kdg2 nak kena agak.

• Start ngan MYDIN dulu sbb nk beli stationery untuk umah anak yatim
• Carik baju melayu pink untuk Adan kat Wisma Konfiden
• Layan bazaar Jln TAR, so expensive mah...x de selera nak beli apa2 even tudung
• S0GO, we spent few hours here to buy stuffs for kids and untuk sorang anak yatim (dia nak remote control car, baju & jam- sumer nak kaler merah hehe). Daripada nak beli 1,2 helai sorang last2, korang tengoklah.tapi betullah, harga dah mahal la, x mcm dulu...
• Pavilion, butik N1ke carik kasut Adan. Takde, diorg x tau pun ada kaler ijau
• BB Plaza, Al-1khsan. Kat sini jugakla sebenarnya lagi meriah...sumer brand sumer size..stok melambak.

Sehelai baju hijau utk Adan juga terselit disitu ye...

oh aku x percaya anakku pakai ijau

16 SEPTEMBER 2008 : SAHUR @ McD

Kira bagi sokongan padu pasal diorang puasa la ni...cewah semenjak 2menjak ada bibik nih, byk plak idea nak kluar2 neh..

Kami bangun pukul 3.30pagi sbb nak detour gi beli nasik lemak kat Mal1's Corner dulu. Sampai jek sana umang aii, ramainya umat..diorng ni x tido ke ? Mostly student UTAR yang baru abih study kata org gerai tuh..so beratur ler aku. Imagine ye (kalau nak imagine lah) beratur nak beli nasik lemak pada pukul 4pagi.

Pastu berkejar pi McD Tmn Me1ati sbb McD nyer menu biasa end at 5am. Ngan muka seposen aku bawak nasik lemak pastu order bubur, nugget and hot milo for everyone. Kat McD pun ramai tell u...heran aku (eh..bukan aku pun salah sorang umat yg meramaikan tempat tu ke?..hiks). Mamat McD yg nak clear tables pun jeling2 jek. Jeling marah ke jeling terliur aku x tau la kan...

Along makan bubur pastu pau nasik lemak ibu


Adan belasah nugget sampai 7, pastu pau nasik lemak ibu jugerr

Alhamdulillah, budak2 ni klu sahur memang derang makan. Klu nasik ayam Manc0ngkam or ayam percik pasar mlm, mau tambah 2,3 kali. Ngan milo panas dan air segelas sorang.

19 SEPTEMBER 2008 : 'MOREH' UMAH ELINE

Moreh konon, terawih pun tak pi..hahaha aku sampai umah Eline pukul 9++pm dah. Tapi yang tak bestnya lepas aku janji nak date ngan Eline tetiba geng2 projek rumah call kata nak meeting mlm ni jugak, AJK rumah fasa 1 nak tolong. Takkan aku nak kensel umah eline, dia dh borong barang...so aku pegi jap jek, sempat wallop sepinggan jek mee kari mu itu. Hajat di hati nak le lepak lelama sbb dh lama x ngumpat sembang kan ?

Kenyang je perut hantar anak2 balik dulu, pastu kami terus pi meeting kat Restoran Ul1k Mayang, skali ada org shooting plak. Call mamat tuh dia kata tukar pi Al-Kafah kat UK Perdana. Dah pkl 11 dah masa tu. Last2 abih meeting sampai umah pukul 1am... perghh

Wat de happenlah lagi

Aku ingatkan dh cover semua dh semalam...ropa2nya ada byk jugakla kejadian lain yang tak ter'record' lagi...sebabnya gambor dlm folder lain. Mostly gambar from our phone. Klu yg sgt blur and byk noise tu from my cikai phone la..yg nampak elok sikit tu henfon pakwe ku yg lebih canggih. Ni time2 aku maleh nak bawak camera la nih...

27 JULY 2008 - NAIK BUKIT, GI GENTING JAP

Tetiba jek rasa nak pi Genting, since dekat jek ngan umah, kami bundled up the kids, picked-up our sorta-anak-angkat, Nadia from her house and off we went up the hill. Layan je la bibik aku yg x berenti b'cakap ahhh ooohh waah...ala2 kagum la tuh

Sepanjang hari budak ini sgt cranky, sempat snap dia senyum jap

Dah besau dah pun, dah start buat gaya2 dah ni..erk.peace ?

2 AUGUST 2008 : HARI KANTIN SKGS

Sebagai ibubapa yang baik hati, maka kami menderma untuk sekolah dgn membeli ntah apa2nyer brg masa Hari Kantin sekolah Hanis. Babah siap temankan Adan masuk umah hantu...hehe. Lihatlah bibikku bergaya 'diva'. Perangai pun ada la jugak 'diva'nya...that's another story for another day.

Penat tunggu clown buat teddybear kat Hannah

Masa ni sumer dah penat melepek, tengahari ni beb


Hanis dan buttonnya..

30 AUGUST 2008 : WALL-E ?? EEEEVA ??

Saja surprisekan diorang x bgtau pun nak pegi mana masa ni...tapi bila masuk jek Pavilion diorg dh boleh agak..kita nak tgk movie ye Babah ?? hehe Masa sampai ni sebenarnya kami dh terlambat, show pkl 12 tapi rezeki budak2 ni, ada lagi tiket tapi depan sket ah...so ibu dia as usual 'shopping' dulu tok nenek jajan sebelum masuk. And Hanis will pay a visit to the ladies sb dia suka ngan auto-dispenser tisu/handsoap

Bab jajan kat movie ni aku suka Cine1eisure lagik sebabnya makanan dia marbeles, and ada teh tarik...walopon dari mesin Nescafe tuh tapi klu kena bancuhannya yummy.., boleh kenyang lah klu kat sana...haha Mmmm raya ke-3 ni bleh kot projek, lepas movie layan IKEA japs..

Melalut lak, movie ni oh so kiut...x byk sgt dialog derang asik asik walle....evaaaaaa...wall-e ? eeeeevaaa..tapi sukalah..korang tgklah senirik. Aku bkn reti nk review2 ni hehe.

Note : Masa aku tgh layan movie tuh..klu x silap ada org kena paksa-rela dengar taklimat budget 2009 kat Berjaya Times Square, pakai unipom lagi. Sapa ek ?? :)

Wat de happenlah in July

Lepas penat handle kenduri arituh, aku penat yg amats, ilang selera nk berblog, apatah lagi nak sentuh gambar2 yang ratusan dlm harddisk. Bila tgk balik, manyak gak event yg jadik masa tuh.

So for the record, aku buat entry paling panjang di donia blog aku...ni kira sesambil meraikan kejayaan aku menyiapkan keje ahead of time la kekonon hahaha.

Next week aku kena jaga opis tau...sebab sumer org nk raya, aku je tak raya...

10 JULY 2008 - HANNAH's 2ND BIRTHDAY

On her birthday, we had our routine makan2 with family members at PIL’s place. Ni memang acara wajib everytime besday sesape je lah in the family..

Time orang dok kecoh siapkan makanan ada org dah cucuk itu kek

Bila dah kasik chance, dia sebok hijack sate abang plak


It's your birthday, buatlah apa yang patut ngan kek tu

12 JULY 2008 - HANNAH and HER RIDE

Sungguh ku tak mampu menahan rindu ah ah percaya that we drove all the way to Klang to buy birthday present for a 2 years old. Obsessive sungguh. All because we’re transfixed with the idea of getting her a BO vehicle. Penat round G0mbak carik dah abis stok or simply hudus to our picky eyes. Ezzah then alerted me to the ASOG0 factory in her neighborhood. We have 1 BO patrol bike from the same co. which is still in good condition after more than 4 years except for missing side mirrors and walkie-talkie. So, we think that it is worth the petrol.

So we went, we bought and we came back. No stopping in between. Really worth it because you will be spoilt for choice. Rambang mata…the pink and purple one are cute overload but we chose safer color, an army green camouflage. It’s ok for girls to be a bit tough compared to boys who ride a pink car kan kan ?

Over there, we were surprised, just like the workers there, that Hannah can RIDE A BIKE ON HER OWN, she maneuvered her way through aisles and racks and happily cycled as if she’s very familiar when in fact, that’s her 1st time on bike. She don’t have her own tri-cycle like Along and Abang. Later, it was no surprise that we have to buy that bike because her hands were glued to the handles, so picking her up is as good as picking the bike as well, dua2 terangkat.

Nilah dia..the car

Her 1st beskal, minah ni rempit x hengat. Dari dapur pecut sampai depan baaaik punya

12 JULY 2008 - CHOMPING @ NAIL1's SENTUL

Our new place for pigging and face-stuffing, Naili’s @ Sentul. Nice ambience and cool waiters. Their other outlets mainly man-made jungle within concrete but this one memang keliling semak samun pokok bagai..

Waiting time is depending on what you ordered but the trick is to get there as early as possible. We went out right after semayang Maghrib. Gombak to Sentul definitely seto’et jek dekatnya so by the time we reach the place, parking melambak and the pondok2 mostly unoccupied, siap boleh pilih2 lagiks. Food were served before Hannah transformed into a little monster.

Last time we went there for dinner with my brother, like almost 9pm, siap aku boleh tergolek2 baring tunggu order sampai. Overall good family eating place but don’t order super duper sweet rainbow drink or Pina Colada. Go for their choc ice blended, heavenly smooth chocholateeyyy

Itu choc ice blended is heaven, ais kacang biasa2 aja..cantonese k.teow out

Budak kicik tgh pancing ais...

19 JULY - BUDAK NERAKA II

Aku x follow pon yang 1st, tapi anak teruna aku and babahnya memang la minat ini cerita, makanya aku pon follow je la, but now i think i loike..haha very the cute citer nih walopon skali tgk cam ganazz gile. Adan suka la sangat, as you know anything RED…

Suka dia, siap soh amek gambo pistol yg gabak tu skali

For those yg dah tgk the movie. THAT song got stuck in my head for days…'I can’t smile without you, can’t smile without you …'. Lagi la Adan suka sbbnya he’s already hooked to this song when he was about 3,4 yrs old.

20 JULY 2008 - MY BIRTHDAY PARTY HOSTED BY EZZAH

Instead of getting oven cum microwave on my birthday, I got bibik instead. How precious is that.

But…

Having someone to host a party for you is even more precious hahaha...no lah, kebetulan her youngest doter's birthday was on the 19th, memula dia nak buat on the day itself tapi since ramai member yg takde termasuk aku maka terpaksa la buat the next day. Last minute arrangement gak tuh sbb based on our YM chat all food order blabla done just few days before the date, that's why very limited crowd la kot. Sempat ku request nasik minyak..hehe thx ezzah for the marbeles food.

On the day, we dragged ourselves out of the bed on my birthday to pick our new bibik at LCCT. So, no breakfast-in-bed for me. More likely breakfast-in-car .

Ni jelah gambar yg 'decent' sket...kang aku letak yg lain ko kata aku letak gambar muka sengal ko Dd..hehe. Click for bigger pix

Since I've decided to follow my frens' advice (to get the microwave for free when we buy other bigger stuffs for the new house), so the $$$ is now safely tucked in my bank account. Thanx Ayang .

Living the Past in Style..

Sydde, walopon ko tidak menge'tag' aku, tapi since aku dah ada gambo ni, maka...silalah lihat aku satu ketika dulu hahaha...

Sayang byk x jadik sbb nampak tudung bila tang pesen rambut yg ala2 dahi luas tuh...pastu aku ske yang pakai spek ala2 from taiping with love tuh tapi x masuk tang mata, asik terlindung ngan spek jek..penat adjust, ergh..malas !! Gila kelaka ah gambo2 ni...

Hahaha ni peberet aku, aci tak aku buat cenggini, mau 2 tahun rambut boycut aku nk kena simpan sampai melentik

Tapi gambo last yang rambut panjang mengurai adalah sama dengan diriku ketika masih sunti 17 tahun. Rambut ku nan mengurai ke pinggang itu...ahhh nostalgic

Very delayed Wedding Entry - The Finale

Aku x prasan aku x upload lagi gambar majlis kat KL hehe. So, last entry for the wedding…akhirnya…

Majlis kat KL, buat kat dewan, senang sebab x yah nak risau umah bersepah ke apa ke post-kenduri. Tak yah buat bilik pengantin, tak yah risau nak carik space bagi anak beranak tido.

All Jusoh's clan came in full force, my parents looked after Hannah while me kicked-off the event at 10am with Marhaban. My sisters managed the bunga telur for guests. My 2 brothers jadik tukang pegang bunga manggar and handled photo/video stuffs. My 2 kids jadik a la flower girl (Adan kata dia 'leaf boy'). All in all...I can feel the love. Zillion thanx to them for coming all the way to be my backbone.

Full force, past midnite


Sticker yang tempah last minute


Bakul hasil kerastangan ku, last minute jugak


2.12AM still kat dewan. SIL's fren buatkan arch FOC


Before event, caterer set-up meja pengantin


cenderahati untuk tamu kecik dan besau


little waiter of the day


Little princess yang nervous


I made her a new headgear to suit the theme color


Perantin sampai, pengapit bidan terjun


'eh Along..kita nak buat apa ngan bunga nih ??'


End of day main crew ngan newlywed - fuhh legaa
