Ramblings of a Mami of Two

Imagine seeing THAT while doing no. 2 in the restroom? Totally potong stim, dude. FYI, this perv is reallllyyyyyyy huge, its freakin HUGE, man!! Kaki sekerempeng dia tu adalah panjang jari aku. *tehehe too much information? hey i'm a human being just like you, i do what you do too!*

I have a maid. She is mostly what every employer expects from a maid, hardworking, responsible, quite friendly, wise, experienced, yadda yadda yadda, all BUT obedient. This fella apparently has a major problem taking instructions from us. You see, she's old. Like, REALLY old. The nanny, world war II kinda old, which makes us look like babies in comparison. So, in my opinion, she automatically thinks she knows better than us, you know, like how the old saying goes, "Aku makan garam dulu dari kau". The fact that she has 7 kids and 12 grandchildren reinforces her stubborness. I have thousands of stories to illustrate this, but i'll only tell you one: She has the habit of holding kimi in one hand while pouring HOT water from the HOT kettle with another hand. Yeah, I know, *GASPS*!! I've seen her doing that like, zillions of times, while ach, a couple of times, has seen her FRYING cekodok while holding my precious ONE AND ONLY son. On the numeorus occasions I saw her d...

I used to hate mornings. The hardest thing to do is always to roll out of my warm comfortable selimut and off ach's warm skin * ehem ehem *. Rain often made it all even more difficult. Rasa cam nak selubung bungkus bungkus dalam selimut all day long! There were times when I was extremely lazy, I'd wake up wishing the day flies by so I'd be in bed again in no time. I know, THAT bad. And when I did manage to get out of bed, I’d walk to the bathroom with eyes half shut. Macam zombie jalan. Mandi pun serupa tak mandi. (sebab mandi pun with eyes half shut) Now, I still hate mornings. But things are a bit different now. Waking up is a breeze, actually, waking up IS the best part of my day. Why? Because every morning, Kimi would greet me with the most beautiful and cheekiest smile I’ve ever seen. It’s like his way of saying “Rise and shine Mummy!!!!!!”. Lepas tu he’ll ajak ach and I guling guling on the katil with him, gomol-gomol and buli dia dulu… then only turun katil. And ...

I stumbled upon this website a couple of weeks ago, and have been pestering ach to bring Kimi for swimming since then. Unfortunately, we didn’t know where to get swim nappies plus we’re without the guts to take that dip yet. Finally, last Saturday kitorang terjumpa and terbeli swim nappy and armbands at mothercare . Sangat excited to take kimi for swim!! Kimi's swimming gear Kena buli ngan ayah So last Sunday Ach and I brought Kimi for his first swim. Initially we were a bit concerned that the heavily chlorinated water might trigger his eczema, but Alhamdulillah, so far Kimi hasn’t shown any adverse reactions to it. He even accidentally “had a taste of the the pool water”. Okeyy je aku tgk. The first few minutes after we dipped him tu he looked a bit blur, like, what the hell? It took him a couple of minutes jugakla to realize, “OMG I’m in a sea of water!!”. Lepas tu syok je tgk dia tepuk2 air, splashing waters to his own face, pedaling his legs in the water. Relax je tade nan...

Isnt it nice that my birthday and mother's day are barely a month apart? =D I get two celebrations ( tho not necessarily two presents ) two months in a row. Yeay. Awesome. Btw, last week was my birthday. Initially, it felt like just any other day, if not worse. Pagi-pagi I rushed to KLCC to make sure KLCC's hall 3 was OK, then rushed to Bursa Malaysia to get some report on CSR, all the time wearing a pair of torturous heels. I even forgot it was my birthday until ach wished me that morning. But... Ach made it all ok by taking me to dinner at Max. @ iHaus. It's actually a showhouse time siang turned restaurant at night. Mula mula masuk I was VERY intimidated by the setting inside, kerusi mahal yang amat cozy, marble tables, the-all-stainless steel kitchen.. yeap you can see the kitchen. cantik. And the menu... my first thought was.. " nate beghuk ape derang serve nehhh??? " Thats because I couldnt even pronounce them. Tah ape ape. Example: Meli-Melo of Mushroom wit...
