Ammar's first birthday!!!

15/11/2014.
Alhamdulillah~~
Ammar is 1 YEAR OLD!
Happy Birthday to our baby Ammar Haikal!
You are still a baby and always be our baby, sayangg!~~
We thought we just wanna bring him to a short getaway to Malacca, since we've been quite busy n all, and then what about a small makan2 cake in Malacca?
and that small makan2 cake progressed to Aunty Unai's (one of my dearest  7 fellowship of the rings hahaha) overexcitement upon knowing that we will celebrate Ammar's birthday in Malacca, which lead to buying colourful helium balloons and a huge Elmo for Ammar!
and progressed some more to expanding our small makan2 cake to a little birthday party for Ammar in Malacca with Aunty Huda, and Aunty Melor (another dearest dearest haha) with hubby hubby and Arissa and Sakura! with Aunty Unai's delicious cookings; Nasi goreng kampung and Ayam masak Unai!
Banyak plak tu macam 20 org nak makan haishh!
And all those excitement, could not be compared to the excitement of a mother. hahahha.
Agreee! Kan kan!

Just about a week before Ammar's birthday, i was like, should i get Ammar a special cake????
Should i should i?
then when i saw Ammar's laughs, whenever he was enjoying his favourite movie, Monsters University,especially Mike Wazowski! since he was still 6months old! never-fail-to-make-him-laugh movie!  i was like, yes yes yes! its gonna be the Monster theme!!! Yay!
Then where do i find anyone who can make the cake?
 I browsed thru the net and also asked around some mates, finally, one of my friend who is a cake master, suggested Scrummy Cake Design.
Owned by a very kind lady named Haziqah. Based dekat Nusaputra.
I explained my ethusiasm of getting this Monster University cake and sgt overambitious nak design monster cake ni with her! hahahha. Nasib she layan me so kind! hehe.
Finally, we agree on getting a 6inch monster cake with mike wazowski sitting on it with cute hat and everythiing hahhaa, plus 20monster cupcakes!!!
And and and...i get so excited watching her progress dalam instagram whenever she updated about my monster cake!! Encik Lebah pun excited sama hahaha, sbb we know Ammar is just so crazy about monster university, and so do we!! mummy and daddy dia haha.

That friday 14/11/14, Mummy dah sibuk2 gunting nama Ammar, haha print some printables monster theme party stuff, haha cuba nak tiup balloons but Daddy said, haish semangatnya mummy,
kita tiup belon kat Melaka nanti keh! nanti tak muat balloons nak masuk kereta!
We left Putrajaya at about 6.30pm, picked up Ammar's monster cake, and the cake assistant instructed me on how to assemble mike, since we gonna bring the cake to Malacca. it has to be separated in two boxes.!
and i was over the moon dah time tu sebab tengok Mike and the cake were so damn pretty!
the cupcakes were also so 'monster' ly pretty!!!
Too excited!!
Arrived at Bayou Lagoon Park Resort at 10pm. It was raining heavily!
I got the feeling that we will not get into the waterpark, as it was raining season kan.
and the place was also jammed packed with people!
Yes, another agoda hotel review here yeah people hehe.
We chose Bayou Lagoon because we wanted an apartment.
2bedroom apartment should be spacious enough for us and few friends coming over right.
and although the check in was soooooo slowwwwwwww, we were so happy with our apartment.
it was spacious, modern, clean and cozy!
Lagilah semangat terus nak deco birthday ammar! hahaha.

After tidurkan Ammar and daddy dah tido,
mummy pun sgt semangat nak tiup balloons, my nanny fatihah also semangat helping me out.
tampal tu tampal ni,
tiup almost 20balloons!
gantung banner, yayyy!! at 2am, we finally siap deco Ammar!
haha excited sungguh mummy dia!
Daddy senyum je tengok haha.Ala daddy pun excited jugakkk!! kan kan kan.. hehehe.

Woke up at 6.30! Birthday boy dah bangun!! Awalnyeeeeee!
We carried him to the living room and he was excited!
Wah balloooonnns!!! polkadot balloons!!
Terus mandi awal hihi bagusla birthday boy ni..mummy sayangg diaaaa!
Mandi awal murah rezeki keh sayang, hehehe insyaAllah.
Nenek selalu cakap camtu.
mandikan anak awal. barulah anak rezeki murah, aminn...
hehe tapi takdela awal sgt ammar mandi, kol 9am jugak hehe..

Bangun2, terus kejar balloons!!

Aunty Unai was supposed to arrive early at least earliest! tapi, elmo belum isi gas la, air belum beli la.hihii so ended up Aunty Udeq n hubby n arissa, and Aunty Melor and Sakura yang sampai dulu.
hahahhha.
Finally she arrived with berbottles2 juice, with berape byk tupperware filled with food!
ini dah macam kenduri ni unaii!!
Alhamdulillah, after so longgggg, finally we were reunited on Ammar's birthday!
With our babiessss! comelnyeee.
borak2 borak2 and catch up session punyala berjam2. hahaha. sesi kejar mengejar babies babies di dalam rumah. hehee.
anyway, this was why we chose apartment in the first place, so that the kids can have fun time tooo! hehehe.
Ammar's potong kek session was fun, as Ammar kept on trying to grab Mike Wazowki hahaha challenging sungguh nak keep the cake in one piece!
Just when we were deciding where to go after the small makan2, nak pegi zoo ke? Mini Malaysia ke? or berendam kat waterpark? then, hujan selebat lebatnya! haha..terus sambung makan lagi!!


Happy Birthday to you

It was so meriah. hihi.
I didnt expect our short getaway turned out to be our K-block reunion with babies!!
K Block stands for Kitchen Block.
haha. four of us were placed in Kitchen block rooms to share when we first arrived in Dunedin, New Zealand while another three were placed in new block with ensuite bathroom okay every room. hahahha masih jeles eh!!

Ade Bustel (bas  yg dijadikan hotel!) and restaurants buses, sangat unik dan happening tempat tu.
tapi of course la tak child friendly keh!

Ammar's eyeing the watermelon juice and apple susu juice haha.

Tapi Sakura lagi hebatla, 
Minum teh tarik!!
Great dinner guys!

Cerita tentang Ammar

Ammar.

I still remember the day you were born.
It was all still fresh.

11months ago.

The day I experienced the most painful pain of all.

The day mummy and daddy saw you for the first time.

The day daddy took you out of mummy’s womb and we heard your first cry

The day mummy was cut open to welcome you to this world.

And that never make me less of a mother

A caesarian never make any mom less of a mother

And everybody should know that

And parenting is definitely a journey

And every moment is precious

And I will document all in here. Haha. Please yawn!

At 8months old.

We celebrated our Eid together. Alhamdulillah.

For the first time.

Our family picture dah bertambah seorang! Alhamdulillah! Berebut nak dukung ammar haha.

But.. wait wait!

Ingatkan dah bergembira beraya as we for the first time, was given quite long leave.

Rupanya, perancangan Allah mengatasi perancangan manusia.

Ammar catched bugs during Eid and developed fever, cough and fast breathing. Again.

Yes again.

Admitted to Hospital Jeli and transferred to Hospital Tanah Merah for worsening Bronchopneumonia. After 8days, 7 nights, completed IV antibiotics again, Ammar recovered well.

Alhamdulillah.

And it was at this stage, we desperately trying to look at other options.

Ammar seemed to not be able to stay in his nursery anymore.

After more drama and plead to my mom, she finally found Ammar a nanny.

Alhamdulillah. A nanny for ammar.

Fatihah namanya.

Shes staying with us now.

To me shes not a nanny, shes more of  like our anak sedara.

she will take care of Ammar at our home.

Maybe this is much better option for Ammar, insyaAllah.

9months old Ammar

Wt 8.7kg

Static.

After two admissions, kesian ammar tak gain weight sangat!
Kesian anak mummy!
Penangan taska yang sangat banyak viruses hehe~~
Ammar rasanya tak pernah symptoms free more than 1week, selalu hingus dan batuk everytime pegi taska.
Bila ingat balik, rasa sedih tinggalkan Ammar di tempat where he catched so many bugs while his mummy duduk comfortably kat tempat kerja. Oh sedih sangat bile ingat balik.
Masa ni, Ammar tak merangkak pun. meniarap je.
sampai risau, bile Ammar nak merangkak.
Huhu, mummy macamanala Ammar nak merangkak, if Ammar selalu tak sihat kat taska mummy!
Mula mula hanta Ammar, ade lebih kurang 6babies je,
after 4months, pelik nampak so many parents yg unfamiliar, tanya balik, rupanya dah ade almost 20babies dah, i was like OMG!

No wonder Ammar selalu selsema batuk and all.
The pool of virus growing rapidly rupanya~~
Kesian Ammar. Dahla Ammar tak nanges, tak tantrums, mesti selalu dibiarkan kan kan huhu.
Penah ambik dia, muka merah2, katanya Ammar tido sembam muka atas lantai.
I was like, speechless. OMG, tak angkat ke?
huhu takpela, mummy harap taska Ammar tu improvela later.
Hope Ammar happier staying at home with Nanny Fatihah~~ insyaAllah.

Then,

the long awaited vacation.
Desaru getaway!
At first, we were quite sceptical about Desaru,
like, cantik ke? best ke?
or should we just go to our usual pantai iaitu Cherating?
Encik Lebah said, why not Desaru? its a new place.
it will be exciting.
and it was!!!
We drove there from Putrajaya and it took us about 5hours.
but the few RnR stops, the quick lunch at kedai makan, warm breeze of Johor, and the beautiful wheather. It was just perfect!
We checked in Pulai Desaru Beach Resort and Spa at about noon.
and our rooms were ready. Fast check in. Friendly staff. okay im about to do agoda hotel review here hehehe..

Our rooms were spacious and clean, with pool view.
As usual, Ammar conquered the whole bed! and his toys were just everywhere! Haish haish!
after 5pm, we decided for splash time kat pantai and swimming pool yayyyy!
Ammar mixed reactions hahaha, cam more to amazed! gelak2 main air owh sangat gembira ..tgk my adorable baby dah besarrrr, alhamdulillah.

 
That night, pegi makan kat famous restoran seafood Bujang Seafood Firefly.
tapi mmm, average only. the service so lambat, makanan pun so-so je, and the restaurant setting mmg quite unsafe la, especially the very steep tangga turun ke that restaurant, mmg kalau org berkasut tinggi ke, budak ke orang tua ke, pregnant lady ke boleh jatuh terus bawah masuk dalam sungai or lumpur!
i nearly nearly nearly nak patah balik dah takmau pegi restaurant ni because of that tangga, husband je yg semangat.
but yeah, NO, NO NO NO NO. NOT AGAIN!
The next night tu decided for a BBQ Buffet Dinner, agak mahal RM 75 ke ape per person, tapi the buffet mmg tersangatla delicious! dengan prawns, lamb, beef, chicken BBQ segala bagai, owh dah terliur dah tulis ni hahaaha. Sgt highly recommended k! Ammar pun hepi jer dok baby chair, dengan angin2 pantai yg best!
Overall, Desaru sgt tenang dan cantik.
again, recommended dengan segala evidence yg ade dah tu hhehe.
Holiday memang agak pricey, but the bonding time with loved ones, the happy time is always priceless...Jom holiday jom!

10months old Ammar

Wt 10kg!

patutla rasa Ammar berat!
patutla rasa macam dukung beras hihhi.
Alhamdulillah Ammar.
Gembira mummy daddy.

Actually tak terpaksa pun, mummy dia yang over nak beli play yard!
