Of Walking And Breastfeeding

Minggu lepas ada kenduri di rumah sepupu Zuf. Sedang aku duduk di lantai bersantai mendukung Aisha, datang seorang anak buah jauh Zuf, juga mendukung adiknya yang aku kira agak muda iaitu agak-agak 2 years old

ABZ : Umur dia berapa tahun kak?

AKU : Baru masuk 5 bulan.

ABZ : Dia dah boleh cakap dah?

AKU : (Kau dah kenapa budak 5 bulan dah boleh bercakap?!) Err.. tak boleh lagi lah.

ABZ : Mukhriz (adiknya itu) jalan cepat, cakap lambat. Orang kata jalan cepat, cakap lambat.

AKU : (Eh ada aku tanya?) Oh ye ke.. bila dia start jalan?

ABZ : Tujuh bulan dah jalan!

AKU : (Hek eleh budak darjah satu ni. Jalan meniti kot. Hebat betul adik ko?! Sentap ni!!)

Heh? (Terus pandang tempat lain)

Aku skeptik dengan ayat itu kerana Emma dahlah jalan lambat, cakap lagilah lambat. Don't think there is such a thing, or is a scientically proven thing. Skeptik tahu tak, skeptik!

OK sekarang Aisha's updates.

Sedang menonton televisyen. Sangat khusyuk.

Hmm.. biasa saja. Kadang-kadang dia berpusing-pusing. She also gets up on all fours and rocks herself. Tang tido tu memang dahsyat repositioning dia. Biasa dia tidur jam 8, dan bangun balik menyusu jam 4. (Biasa menyusu sambil baring, bila aku nak tidur aku angkat dia masuk babycot. Jam 4 menyusu aku angkat atas katil). So far so good.

Menyusu pulak Alhamdulillah masih menyusu badan. Stok susu dalam fridge pun OKlah, not bad at all. Time Emma dulu memang kais pagi makan pagi, Aisha ni ada lagi stok so pumping schedule tak begitu rigid. The other day after a meeting that went on and on, I double pumped while driving back to the office. Freestyle FTW! Kadang-kadang sesi mengepam dibuat sambil menggosok baju, mengemas beg, mencuci botol, menaip di pejabat ewah. Cumanya masa mengepam kat meja office tu, janganlah menyuruh aku bangun kerana walaupun ia boleh dilakukan, aku akan kelihatan seperti seorang wanita with super boobies.

Emma breastfeeding her baby, also named Aisha Zoeya sheesh.

Saiz badan, hehehe, is average. Not as Sin Chan as Emma. Much slimmer. And lighter. And dare I say shorter. Sigh.

So far, Emma has been nothing but a good and loving sister. Dia bangun pagi kalau Aisha dah bangun lepak dengan aku kat depan, dia menangis cari Aisha. Kalau Aisha terjaga dari tidur, dia dodoikan Aisha. Of course Aisha never falls back asleep, but at least she keeps her entertained. Kalau Aisha tarik rambut Emma (which she always does), aku marah Aisha, aku kena marah balik dengan Emma.

A photo I uploaded on facebook the other day.

Love.

Seems like Emma and I are the ones who have to fight for Aisha's affection. Bukan Aisha dan Emma yang fight for mine.

Next!

Okay so Blogaway sucked. Couldn't upload photos. Or maybe I didn't know how. Mari eksperimen!

Blogaway

Keeping to my resolution, so far. So I'm trying out this new blogging app, let's see if it's any good.

We had Shaqeel for the weekend while K Chy went outstation. It was nice to see Emma and Shaq and even Aisha bonding. Once I was at the kitchen, leaving the kids alone in the kids' room, then Aisha sorta cried. I yelled "Emma! Main dengan Aisha!". Usually she'd just follow my order. Today I heard her yell "Shaqeel! Main dengan Aisha!". Lepas tu dengar suara Shaqeel cakap-cakap dengan "Esha". Hehe the heirarchy has changed.

Haha really quick update. Happy Monday morning, everyone!

Happy 2012 people! Haven't seen you guys for quite some time. I'm in a meeting right now, but aku sedang duduk tersandar sambil mengupdate blog muahahaha. Bergaduhlah you all. I'm doing this because of my resolution. Heh heh. I resolve to update my blog at least once a week, more frequently if time permits. Like today hahaha. Susah nak update because android app takde blogpress. Hehehe alasan. Among other resolutions are:- To spend less time indoors, watching TV and to spend more time appreciating nature chewah. Implemented last weekend whereby Aisha terbaring baring atas tilam kat luar rumah while aku jemur baju dan bercucuk tanam dan Emma bermain pasir. Lagi resolusi :- To run the half marathon in this year's KL Marathon. Berusahalah! Haven't started training yet.. Hmm.. Cook more often. With four mouths to feed, eating out everyday is not a viable option. Plus its healthier. Cooked in bulk on Monday and froze some. To be more patient. Especially with Emma. God, akal budak ni nowadays. I've had meltdowns I'm not proud of *cries* Final resolution :- submit my application to ISM. Muahahaha. 7 years gone. Major procastinator (sp). Fuih banyak juga azam tahun 2012. Marilah berusaha menjayakannya! Happy 2012 everyone!

36 Days Of Aisha

Well pantang is almost over. Hooray. Thursday morning I'm gonna have me a cold glass of coke on the rocks ewah. And later some ice cream. Or just save time and have a coke float. Just to get that craving out of my system. And hope Little Zoe won't be affected by it. Like the day I had a cup of very mild coffee. Argh penyesalan ok because she wouldn't sleep! So no more coffee for me until I start work.

So baby's a little over a month today. At her month old checkup she gained about 800g which according to the nurse is OK. Sangat best check up kat Klinik Jalan Abd Samad seh, kosong! Aisha was the only baby there! In and out in sup sup sap (less than an hour, including her jab).







I'm now spending time in Singapore, attending my cousin's engagement tomorrow and doing some hari raya visiting. Hahaha pantang tak habis dah keluar berjalan bagai. Pagi tadi siap pergi East Coast Park bawak the kids cycling chewah. Found out Emma's afraid of the waves, she scolded the water for getting her feet wet. Did some cardio haha cycled for 45 minutes! Turun je bicycle tu kaki rasa macam jelly fish, seriously! It was a beca-lije bicycle contraption, 2 cyclist, a sort of like child seat in front, ada cover atas and a steering wheel. Quite heavy lah the thing, itu pasai kaki rasa jelly fish. And now my back is painful. Should take the next few days easy.

On a plus note, I'm down to my pre-pregnancy weight. Yay! But since I was already a bit (hah! Denial, much?) overweight then, I am aiming for an extra 10kilo weight loss. Too ambitious kot. Try 5 kg first then we discuss. As usual belly still at 3 months pregnant. Apparently the weight came off my butt. I think. Sigh. Getting flatter after each baby. And wider too. Should look for area spesific exercises. Or new jeans that hides all flaws.

Hmm but can I since early Tuesday morning is our flight back to KL? Mampu mak handle 2 kids naik flight pukul 8:45 am sorang-sorang? Insyallah. Papa kata nak keluar rumah at 630. Tak payah mandi lah gitu. Or if nak mandi kena bangun pukul 530, or 6. Because Aisha typically wakes up at 630. Yup, whatever.

Akhir kata dari saya, selamat hari raya aidil fitri, maafkan saya, zahir dan batin. Thanks for friends who came (di KJ dan juga di SP!!) bearing gifts, cash and well wishes. Ketahuilah bahawa kami sekeluarga appreciate kebaikan anda, sedalam-dalamnya. Juga kepada yang membawa makanan dan juga kepada yang memasak kat rumah I, hehe. Harap u ok ok je nak bersalin nanti, u can do it babe! Thanks!







Argh ignore huge flabby arms, please. Should trim those too. The only photo with the 3 of us.
