Sophie's very first EID


We spent first few days in Pantai Remis as this is Hubby's turn to celebrate Eid first with his families. Sophie had fun with cousins, have seen some fireworks, enjoyed kutip duit raya..

Sophie felt asleep all the way from her Opah’s home to Melaka. Normally, we will celebrate Eid at my granny’s home in Malacca. Since we are all live in KL except my 3rd sister, we know that Eid in Malacca much more enjoyable rather to stay and celebrate it in KL. We have lots of family in here plus it is quite pleasant to be around little cousins, aunts and uncles.

Last time we had ‘cukur jambul’ for Sophie placed in PR so we have decided her Aqiqah wil be held in Malacca during this Eid. When we arrived, her aunts, Mak Long, Mak Ngah, n Mak Lang were really excited to see her with her lovely baju kurung we’ve bought at PJ. She’s real cute on that.

We spent time in her Nek Zizah’s and my granny’s house, she was entertain by her little fans, such her cousin, Aiman, Amer, Alisa, Akiff, Haikal, Hakim and Ariff. Yeah.. all of them sound similar which we always have problem to identify each of them. Apa la mama diorg ni… hehhe.. soon after that, her Granny said the ‘qurban’ (goat) has been arrived and will be located at Uncle Udin’s house. We were going to have a look and it was quite a big and pretty goat. This talented uncle Udin also has decorated the swing for Sophie, I would say it was really beautiful swing I’ve ever seen in my life. Well, yes.. she has no reason putting her on that swing but that’s the only deco for Aqiqah ceremony. She’s not used to be on the swing since we taught her to be sleep on her cot itself.

Sophie enjoyed entertain by her cousins and her grandpa

Aqiqah was fine, the event was totally awesome with the helps from my families, and Sophie was stunned with her lovely swing. She got lots of duit raya, some token from the event itself and some of it from her aunts and uncles, and from our colleagues. The total? I think she was getting so much than I had when I was younger – RM1200 ++. Well started for her savings now.
