May, we’ve got lots of event on May. One of the most important events is our Anniversary. It was on May 17th, which our aqad has took place. I was touched when I browsed through the aqad and honeymoon picture and praying for our happiness till end of our life. Hubby has booked Air Asia tickets flight to Langkawi for our anniversary and it was real fun with Sophie came along together. It was the first time we took Sophie fly.

Hye.. morning! I'm going to Langkawi...:)

Langkawi - Awana Hotel, Harbour, and i love the cable car!

I’ve been searching for the information about the safety and tips for baby to fly. We’ve been there for 3 days, Sophie was restless, I could see her can’t cope with the trips and lots of places was quite restricted. Nevertheless, it was really a wonderful trip even for the 1st time we had to deal with Sophie’s 2 hours crankiness that was worth our time.

hmm.. boring la mama.. xdpt swimming. Urghh!! what is that??

Lots of wedding on May and unfortunately 2 weddings were held at the time. These wedding are my cousin’s and our colleague’s. As the colleague is a good friend of ours, and they went to both of our aqad and reception, thus we’ve decided that we have to go both wedding. 2 days before the wedding, my aunts and cousins were here gathered at my Angah’s house.

We also did not miss the occasion to gather around with them. It was an exciting time for Sophie when she was trying to recognize people and started to respond in many ways. There were Alisa and Akif (Angah’s children) constantly kissing and hugging Sophie. Alisa would say “She is so cute Mak Tam… why Sophie is so cute?” and I smiled. Akif is one of my nephews and I must say he is really lovable. I still remember when I was still pregnant; he will always clingy unless his mom called him. And I would still remember how he was crying when the times we had to go home after visiting them.

As for Sophie, she loves looking with curiosity, to whatever she saw including her reflection. When she saw people around her, she would look at them with her bright eyes as if she already seen them before. Now, she actively rolls and sometime she will be automatically turned effortlessly. Akif was one of the babysitter when I was busy hanging around with my sisters and aunts. He took his toys to attract and distract her from crying. One of the charming of him is when he took one of his Fisher Price Lil’ Laugh & Learn Discovery Gym and he said to Sophie “Look Sophie, abang Akif give” … isn’t it so CUTTTEEEEE??? Angah and I look at each other and said the very same word “abang”… hehehehe…

She gets out!

Its time to sleep mama.. i'm sleepy...

It was an election time, which I had to put myself to be one of the loyal citizens in voting the eligible party. I was not actually have the spirit to go out seeing that I have not think which one to vote in the sense of I hate what has been done the Pak Lah’s gov lately. Well, since my Hubby didn’t have the chance this year, I had to do what I’m supposed to do.

That was the first time we took Sophie out, put her on her car seat, I saw she loves to explore everything that she saw explicitly. We know that babies are so vulnerable to germs during their first month but as she almost 2 month, we thought it could be okay for her. Anyways, she has been out when she was 1-month-old for her 1st immunization, I don’t think there is a problem with that.

Mama, i wonder what's out there...

Could we go somewhere else? i'm bored...

After Sophie almost 3-month-old, we’ve been traveled to her Opah’s house in Perak. It took around 5 hours to reach there and it was tiring enough for us. But as long as we have a good car seat, I think it would be fair enough for Sophie to cope. That was a wedding for Hubby’s younger brother and it was going to be a Majlis Bercukur Jambul for Sophie. For unforeseen circumstances which most probably it was not a right timing, her Majlis Akikah has to be postponed and will be held at Melaka soon, perhaps during Aidilfitri. It was a fabulous event in the efforts of her Opah to get everthing done by her, helped by neighbors and in-laws.

Her granny do her parts in cutting Sophie's hair


Urghh.. this is unfair.. how come u have a beautiful long hair n mine is so short?

On the April 10th, we went PMC for her 2nd immunization. Her pediatrician, Dr. Azam, is verr likeable and soft spoken guy; well his job suits him I think. One thing for sure, for some inexplicably, I was amazed when Sophie did not cry since her 1st shot. I do not why, but she must a very strong cute girl, which Dr. Azam also surprised that she didn’t cry. Well definitely not liker her mama, always frightened to get a shot, heart pounding like seems never stopped, throat thickening and... i will finally weeps. Hahaha…

Surprisingly, too fast in seeing Sophie was learning how to roll. She was able to move from her side to her back and so forth effortlessly. I could see she could lifted up her head for a few seconds yet not toughen enough to get little longer. She needs stronger neck and arm muscles for that maneuver. Anyhow, she's being more adorable and funny...hehehe..

2-month princess

I can not believed everything is so fast. Time flies… last time I remember I was still carrying my little princess all around with my big belly. At this moment I am holding her at the very front of me she is smiling. When I was pregnant, I was afraid and was thinking about our responsibility as parent all the time. I can’t believe that I could do all those parenting thingy, how do I change her diapers? How do I deal with her sickness, her crankiness and can we be a good parent? What if we could not be a good parent? God… I was so depressed. We shoulder very high responsibilities.

Sophie was trying to get her toys..

Apparently after Sophie was born, it become exceptionally a great experience and after spent time more with her, the chaotic first month are over, I must say I was not bad at all. Sophie bedtime schedule has become more predictable and just getting tuned into her needs. We have bought her very own Fisher Price newborn to toddler rocker. She was blur with those toys around the rocker but she seems animated with it. I could see she has recognized me now as her mother. And believe it or not, she starts gurgles and making vowels sounds. She could smile and sometimes when I was offering a rattle or soft toys she made an effort to hold it even for a few seconds.

She's sleeping and she smilling..:)

Even thought it was a bit tiring since Sophie is fully breastfeed, I am not letting it bothered me. As for me, this is the least thing I could do for my baby. I was trying to divide my precious time for my loved ones – Hubby and our little princess, I must admit I am not an expert; however I will do the best to getting better.
