The Trouble with Khaliq...

Now that he can walk, trouble is his middle name. That shirt suits you perfectly, lil' bro! :)

My 2nd Eid

We just celebrated Eid on the 20th of September, 2009. It was my 2nd Eid-ul-Fitri. This year, we celebrated Eid with Dadda's family in PJ first. We went to Papa and Mama's house in PJ on Friday, 2 days before Eid. At night, on the eve of Eid, we played fireworks with everyone. It was quite exciting, although I was a little afraid of the fire coming out of the 'stick'.


Mommy, I'm scared!! MOM!

On the morning of Eid, Dadda woke up early to go to the mosque for Eid prayers while Mommy and I woke up later and got ready. After prayers we had breakfast together. Mama (Dadda's mommy) made a special dish called Nasi Dagang. After breakfast, we gathered to take photos and exchanged money packets! Yes, us kids get lots and lots of money packets given by adult relatives and friends, he... he... something I look forward to everytime we go visit someone during Eid month.

Jumping with JOY!

We then went back to Tok Mama's kampung in Rembau, Negeri Sembilan later in the afternoon on the 1st day. There we met with more relatives and I received more money packets! We drove to Muar, Johore on the 2nd day of Eid to visit Aunty Huda and her family and then headed back to Subang Jaya that night. On the 3rd day, Papa and Mama came to Subang along with the rest of the PJ clan.


Mammam with Tok Abah!


Look at my 'muncung' lips!

On the 4th day, we had to drive all the way to Kelantan (I'm not sure where it is but we took ages to get there and come back!). We were there for a wedding of Dadda's cousin. On the way back from Kelantan, we stopped over at Tia's house in Kuantan. Dadda, Mommy and I fell sick after our hectic schedules so we spent our last few days of the week resting at home.

I had a week of Eid holiday and I was back to school the week after. Recently, we had Eid celebration at school and everyone had to turn up in our traditional clothings. Naturally, I turned up in Baju Kurung. We had fun and ate lots of food. Mommy and Dadda came late so they didn't get to see all of us in our special clothes.

I can't tell you about every single thing that had happened during the Eid month because if I do, this post will go on and on and it will never stop. So, I'll just post pictures for you to see, ok? To sum it all up, I was soooo busy in the whole month of Syawal.

Looking forward to more hectic Syawals in the years to come...

The Great Escapade: Fly ME For FREE please!

You're probably wondering what on earth is the title all about! Well, let me enlighten you...

Our beloved Malaysian Airlines has 9 packages for us to choose when booking for flights. My favourite of all is obviously the 'Kids Fly Free' package. The ultimate reason? So I don't get left behind everytime Mommy and Dadda go for a trip or holiday! Duh!



Mommy and Dadda have this serious need to travel or go for a holiday at least twice a year and every single time I was left behind with Tok Mama and Tok Abah.


Thanks Tok Abah, but I wanna go on a real flight!!

I mean, when is this going to end? It's about time they take me along! The reason given was, as always, I was too little and a waste of money to pay for flight tickets.


Dear MAS, please pick me to go on a FREE FLIGHT!!

Well, I've got news for you, Mommy and Dadda, I'm no longer the little baby I once was and now, tadda... MAS has these lovely, awesome packages for you to choose from and one of it is, guess what? Yes, free tickets for kids! Isn't that just perfect for my first flight ever?

So, now, can I tag along? Please... pretty please..?




Leaving on a MAS Jet Plane.. Hopefully soon...

My 1st Birthday BASH!

I remember waking up that morning quite late, around 10ish. I heard water running in the bathroom, it must be Dadda having a shower. Mommy carried me out of the room to feed me breakfast and outside, watching TV, were Aunty Huda and Mak Lel. They stayed over the night before to help Mommy with the preparations for that day, my BIG day...

Yes, that was the day of my birthday party! Mommy, Mak Lel and Pak Su prepared the party packs the night before and I was thrilled. After breakfast Mommy showered me and after that I sat and watch TV while everyone was busy getting ready to prepare for the party. Mommy and Mak Lel went out to get my cake while I stayed home with Dadda and Aunty Huda to decorate the room where the party was to be held.

Mommy had tried to make me sleep for a while around 2pm, before the party started but I was excited and didn't want to. I was so adamant that Mommy finally gave up and wore me my new dress and got ready herself before taking me to the clubhouse. At the clubhouse, people were starting to arrive. Around 4pm, almost everyone had arrived and were eating and chatting away. Everybody I know was there. There were balloons and presents and a big banner that said 'Happy Birthday Nadyne'.

Look at all the yummy food. Catering contacts thanks to Auntie Alma!


My Little Einsteins Special Birthday cake. Thank you Mommy!

Unfortunately, by the time everyone had arrived and it was time to cut cake, I was already feeling tired and really, really sleepy. Now I know why Mommy had desperately wanted me to sleep before the party. If only I listened to Mommy, I probably wouldn't be as tired! As a result, all photos taken on that day were with my gloomy face on.


Yes, I'm excited inside, but sleepy on the outside..

Anyway, we did blow the candle and cut the special cake Mommy bought for me. It was in the shape of my favourite cartoon, 'Little Einsteins'. The cake tasted nice too! All the kids who came to my party received a party pack each. Cousin Nadhrah was not there, though, because she was in Sabah with Ayah De and Che De. So, we kept a couple of party packs to give it to her when we see her the week after.


Happy birthday to ME!


Time to blow the No 1 candle!



With my beloved Mommy & Dadda + the Cake..

After eating my birthday cake, everyone got ready to go down to the pool to have a swim. Mommy, Mak Lel, Aunty Huda and Pak Su stayed back to help pack the food and things to be brought back to our house. Dadda took me back first to get myself ready for the swim. Everyone enjoyed themselves at the pool. Some didn't even want to come out, including me!


My guests enjoying a dip in the swimming pool!

Finally, around 7pm I had to come out of the pool because it was getting dark and some guests are still at our house. At home, Mommy showered me and fed me with some milk afterwhich I slept like a log! Imagine how tired I was! Mommy woke me up around 9pm to open up presents. Tok Mama had finally arrived from London and Aunty Min had picked her up from the airport and came straight to our house. Uncle Nuar had also finally arrived.


With Uncle Nuar and our front neighbours...

Mommy put me on her lap and started opening the presents, one by one, telling others who each presents were from. There were quite a number of them and I thank everyone who gave me those nice things.


Gifts opening session. Thank you alll!!!

We took some photos of me with my presents and after that, said goodbye to everyone. Later that night, after everyone had left, we went out with Pak Su, Aunty Huda, Mak Lel, Pak Long Imal and Aunty Ina. After a long day, we ended it with a nice cup of coffee before retiring to bed.


Me, presents and with my dynamic duo 'Godmothers': Auntie Huda & Mak Lel!

The celebration wasn't over though, we were going bowling the next day and I had fun during bowling too!

So, now you know that I really had a blast and my 1st birthday celebration was unforgettable!

My New Shoes

Before going to bed around midnight last night, Mommy and Dadda came smiling and hugged and kissed me a few times and said, "Happy Birthday Darling! Mommy and Dadda's little angel has turned 1!" I didn't quite understand what they were saying and why they were suddenly happy in the middle of the night or maybe I was too sleepy to even think of it, I just went straight to bed.


I'm ONE already, Mommy?


What's this with all the No 1 finger, Dadda?

This morning, Mommy woke me up earlier than usual. Dadda has already showered and while I was still yawning and my eyes were still half closed, he carried me downstairs. Oh yes, we slept over at Tok Abah's because I heard that Dadda had wanted to send his car for service. Anyway, Tok Abah was already downstairs, getting ready to go to work. Tok Mama is still in London. Tok Abah took me in his arms and kissed my forehead and also muttered the words, 'Happy Birthday'. By then, I was fully awake but had no mood to do anything at all. I just wanted to go back to sleep!

A while later, Mommy came down to bathe me and when I was ready, I waved goodbye to Tok Abah when he left to work. Dadda took me to the computer and there I saw Tok Mama's face on the screen! I thought it was only a photo but somehow the photo talked to me! I didn't know what to think so I just stared at the screen without muttering a single word!


It's still too early.. I miss my sleep..

So anyway, we eventually went out when everyone was ready. We had breakfast at McDonald's after we sent Dadda's car for service after which we headed to Pantai Medical Centre to see my doctor, Dr. Azam for my 1 year jab.


Breakfast @ McD... I can do the No 1 with my finger now..


Reading in the car on the way to Pantai Medical Centre, where I was born!

I met a few friends there. Dr. Azam seemed like a nice guy but he poked my thigh with a tiny sharp little thingy and I got angry! Well, it didn't really hurt me and I didn't cry but I was quite annoyed that I had to be forced to lie down while listening to this stranger talk about me!


How much do I weigh now? 9 kg!


Is this my 1 year birthday gift Mommy, a JAB??!!

After my visit to Dr. Azam's, we went to Papa's house in PJ because Dadda had to attend the Friday prayers. I rested for a while and played with Abang Aimar while waiting for Dadda and Papa to come back. After we all had our lunch together, I went out again with Mommy and Dadda. This time we went to a shopping mall to buy me a new pair of shoes! Woohoo!


That's my Dr Azam in the background. He's quite the joker!

This is what I've been telling you guys about in my previous post, remember? Anyway, I fell asleep when we reached the shoe shop so Mommy and Dadda chose the shoes for me. It's almost like Cinderella's glass slippers (except that it's not made of glass but clear rubber..) and the best part is... there are lights when I walk! This way I won't be lost in a crowd and Mommy and Dadda could always find me. Anyway, we continued shopping a wee bit longer and then headed straight back to Subang.

That night, we had a small celebration at Tok Abah's with Mak Lel (she joined us during our shopping spree..), Wandak, Wan Kie, Mama Lyana, Papa Adam, Tok Mama (with Aunty Alia, Uncle Ashraf, Aunty Intan and Kak Aqilah through the computer, again..). I opened up a few presents from them, hehe...

Apparently, there'll be another wee celebration with the PJ family, again, tomorrow.
Can't wait... will update on that, soon...
