My baby is 7months!

My baby turned 7 months! Oh how time just flashes by... She's such a joy to be with and I'm grateful for the minutes, hours and days that we have had the chance to know her...

What is her current milestone at 7 months? Nothing major like walking or her first teeth... But she's definitely more stable now in sitting, crawling and standing... She's even daring enough to try and stand on her own... All for 2 seconds! Hahahaha...

Today (7months 1 day) I noticed that she babbles a lot... Using a lot more vowels.. Or is syllables? :) before this, all she says is oooo or buuuu... I guess she's practicing for her first words? Alhamdulillah...

During bath time she also enjoys hitting her palm on the water... Splashing herself and of course mummy dearest... Hehehe...

Introduced her to a new snack food... Those baked biscuits... She actually finish the whole packet of 2 biscuits in one sitting! Already she's becoming mummy in her love for food... Hehehehe :)

Maaf Zahir & Batin

On this last day of puasa... I'd like to say sorry to all of those who has touched my life... be it in a major way... family and close friends.. or in a small way... whoever you are out there...

We can only strive to be perfect... but often that comes out as a cheap imitation of the ultimate perfection... but I guess the most important thing is the thought that you put through and the effort that you take to be that perfect someone... This past year, I know that I have been a trial to some that are close to me... what with pregnancy hormones flaring up during last ramadhan and all through giving birth... then came the journey of being a first time mom that often takes me in a roller coaster ride of up and down and zwingging zwagging.... so temper tends to flare up in the most unexpected moments...

Alhamdulillah... life has been kind to us... giving us the opportunity to experience the magic of parenthood... the wonderful moments that only marriage can bring... the sweetness of being children again with our parents... and of course not forgetting our good fortune of having super brothers, sisters and little niece and nephews...

To those whom I have offended... please forgive me... sometimes we say or do things that are not meant to hurt and in the excitement of the moment we often forget to think first before the action...

Let's live and learn and bring with us all that is good... hoping that this raya brings even more happiness...

Ramadhan is almost over...

Today is the last day of puasa... I can't believe that it's been a month already... It has always been one of my favorite month of the year... Somehow ramadhan manages to bring everyone closer, healthier style of living... Will miss this month very much!

Jellybean has been such a perfect angel... And with the closing of ramadhan comes hari raya ... And Jellybean will be 7 months old! :) a snapshot of the soon to be 7m baby...

Another milestone!

Everytime she can, she'll try and find something to pull her up to a standing position... And this little jellybean is so confident she sometimes only holds on with one hand...! Tsk tsk... Sayang mummy too confident ade orang will grab her before she falls... I must say, we're super excited that she's moved up the next level... But we know that now we have to increase her protection level...

So for now? Sleeping with mummy lah... Too scared that you'll wake up in the middle of the night and start cruising when no one is there to watch you... But mummy just loves having you close to cuddle with... And of course the first sight I see when I open my eyes! ;)

Love u sayang! And congrats on being so strong and healthy... :)

Pagi-pagi entertainment

My baby wants to puasa too.. All of her 2 hours before berbuka :p
Jellybean now wakes up at 5ish everyday to 'bersahur' and play with mummy and daddy... Then she'll settle in for a short nap before her 'berbuka'... Hahaha...

What's up with Jellybean's hands? Just an add on... picture taken when she was 4 months old... how time flies... but no worries, her fingers are still as chubbylicious, pudgy and yummy at 6 months 3 weeks! :D

What would you do?

What would you do...
Say if you were in my shoes...
Waves battling to sink you down...
And all the world seems to greet you with a frown...

What would be the move...
To help you rise from this perpetual doom...
The thought and prayers sent....
So many days and nights are already spent...

What would you do, really...?
When the weight has brought you down on one knee...
Mindless with disappointment...
Heart beat slowly thumping a sad sound...

What... pray tell... what?

The tightness in my heart...
The tears that burns my eyes...
And here I still stand and pray...

What... what would you do...
What if you were here...
Right here in my shoes?
