rndm
the last whole week with my baby before wednesdays and thursdays start, amongst other things.

we had a sentosa picnic planned on wednesday afternoon but it rained and rained so we headed to vivo for a bit, and then to earle swensens at t3 for dinner with zain and parents, and faiz and sheila.

and then we met the girls on thursday night for dinner at... earle swensens again! i'm on love with their salad buffet, and am glad to intro it to tini, who i'm sure will drag rock for some salad loving too! :)



waiting for auntini and aunteacher @ terminal 3




at 1030pm and she's not even close to being sleepy!




not much difference eh? the top was new year 2008 at fish&co, the bottom is last thursday!




on saturday after springcleaning the woodlands room we went to simei for baby elisa's cukur rambut.




and then off to simpang for dinner with the faiz/sheila duo again!


16 more days till she turn 1!

friday 5ive

we started off with breakfast and super last minute kain-searching with theboy. and crossing our fingers (eyes and toes) that the seamstress will still accept, yikes!



and then we met ianian!


lunch @ McD, stopped by the takababyfair for a bit, retreated to the nursery on level 3 and then omgwthbrb thegirl slept while i pushed her around in the stroller! may i add this rarely happens as she'd always need me to dodoi her to sleep.. and usually when i dodoi her to sleep and attempt to put her slowly in the stroller, she'll wake up screaming?!

so anyway, we trooped to paragon after that where ianian was lulled to sleep at the nursery heh, and the mommies had breeze windowshopping. mandatory stop at vitakids to stock up on the organix munchies and then to starbucks. and then i got hungry so fish&co it is.. where i satisfied my monthlong craving for swordfish collllaaaaaah!


wondering where's her food



wondering if nice auntiebilla will get her food



ahhh.. there's her cornsnack..



ooomphhh.. chompchomp



starting to pout coz my lovely swordfishcollar is here and i'm not paying attention to her



screaaaaaaming for attention, urgh!!!


dahlia sayang, can dont be so garang anot? girl cannot be so garang tau! nanti ibu susah.. nanti ibu will have heartattack like your nyai a few yrs ago, when your nyai asked me when i will settle down.. ibu said "when i turn 35, ma!" :)


mandatory selfshot before we happily fold our own strollers into our own cabs and head home. i always, always love hearing other ppl go "wah so good she can carry baby in one hand and fold/keep stroller in the trunk with the other.. hen li hai wor!"

when i epppp at her, she eppppps me back!
she's really been a handful, my little girl. and i'm actually glad i get to see it everyday now. i never know when it's too early/late to start discipling (theboy always says that i'll be the bad parent) but he's had his fair share of NO DAHLIAAAA CANNOT!!

but she tames down quite immediately at night when i switch off the main light, switch on the nightlight and lay down with her on our bed. that's the trick to put her to sleep.. she'd need to roll around on ours before going to deep sleep. and last night when i was rubbing her back, something she absolutely loves (and me too!) telling her not to be so notti in the day.. she gave me the sweetest smile with a slight giggle! how to be angry at her all the time tell me? -_-

anyway, i cant resist getting her a barney bagpack from my takababyfair spree last week.

i know.. my bad. but it was really lolworthy! anyway she was back to being a happy baby after her barney trauma in no time!

picspam :)
today we took a little trip down memory lane, to where we first heard her little meek cries. where she pooped sweet smelling poop all over the weighing scale which guarantees and confirms that she's ayah's little baby. where i almost KO-ed in the toilet after delivering her coz i action gung-ho only hehe.

it's been exactly 11 mths! her little meek cries are now attention seeking screams. her sweet smelling poop can lawan her ayah's and i'm not KO-ing just yet.. in fact i'm enjoying life at home! :)


she can't keep still!



so ayah keeps her occupied..



while i ravaged the freshest bun out of the oven, Muhammad Rayyan!


feels nice to wake up on a Monday morning and find an sms from a new mommie AND THEN being able to visit newbaby and newmommie straight away.. no monday blues! :) congrats to BFF maisarah and asid for the little bundle of joy! like finally, one of the geng with a baby! now i simply cant wait for raya coz we'll be zipping around with the babies hehe.

speaking of zipping around.. dahlia and ibu's been doing just that lately. and even managed to be patriotic singaporeans and escape to malacca for a weekend!


oh hello!



lunchdate with sarah and siti @ united square



teatime dates with zac/bena, jordan/gywen & sarah/siti



grocery shopping with ayah!


so yeah, i've been nicely occupying myself at home. and hopefully i'd still be able to spend as much time with her when tues/thurs starts :)

cot cleanup? from shotbyfau on Vimeo.

this is weirdly funny. first i realised she's mastered the art of putting her shapes into the shapesorters container. but today, she made me LOL when she was busying herself chucking her pillows out of her cot!

my favourite people
the past few days have been leaving my mental insides haphazardous. i hope this weekend's retail theraphy date with d, billa and ianian will be fun :)

we were in sentosa for a few hours last saturday, and this is my favourite photo ever.. and my own brand of happiness; the dahlia sneer..





in other news, ma reported that abah fainted while cycling in ubin with his mosquemates. hmm.
