:: it's never late to learn ::

this morning, in the car, on the way to my mom's house to send the boys, hubby put on the boys' musical cd on play..

baba black sheep was his last pick..

he then asked me......

"baba black sheep,.. pastu apa dia cakap ha?"

i bantai gelak gila..

i mean after 30 years of living, he finally ask the question..

honey dear,

it's "baba black sheep have u any wool.."

not..

"baba black sheep happy any moo.. "

hehe..

anyway, it's never late to learn.. ;)

:: black mary jane shoe ::

i'm enjoying sucha comforting food - strawberry icecream.. sedap.. had a quiet lunch (not really quiet anyway) at kenny hill with my office mate, kak raja.. relax jek rasa..

yesterday, i finally bought the shoe, though it does not fulfil my spec 100%.. i have to compromise on the colours, so i ended up with a black mary jane shoe with logo in fuschia.. ok la tuh..

kay la all.. nothing much to share actually.. seriously, my mind is ain't at work..

hmm.. take care.. bye!

:: afiq n adib had their first haircut at the shop ::

morning.. i feel a bit tired today.. woke up at quarter to 7, just tofind myself and hubby kelam kabut to get ready for office.. have been late to office lately, and i just can't help it..

went to klcc yesterday to look for a new pair of shoe.. have something specific in mind - nike mary jane shoe, all black.. tapi yang ada smalam semua yang ada pattern².. the closest yang ada, black with fuschia nike logo.. spoil betul la..

just to share some story with you.. i remember asking my mom to bring the boys for a haircut kat kedai, sbb rambut adib dah too thick for me to manage.. but, i don't expect mom to bring them yesterday.. balik² umah jek, tgk both of them punya rambut dah pendek gila!! afiq terus nampak macam anak cina.. mom said, adib behave so well, but afiq....... melalak! hehe.. afiq mmg pantang org pegang dia and suruh duduk still.. ;)

smalam jugak, ada posmen datang umah my mom, asking for afiq n adib.. kelaka tak kelaka.. sbbnya pak lang aka ayoy dr dublin hantar parcel birthday.. thank you ayoy for the zara jeans.. :D smart gila..

hmm.. okay la all.. my mind actually macam ala² dah off dari office.. dah merawang² nak holiday.. the long awaited holiday.. ngehngehngeh.. ;D

kay yea.. take care.. muahs!

:: adult materials ::

just to share some jokes..

hubby was at a place, where the management has filtered the websites that can be viewed by the users. he was about to check flights availability form gold coast to sydney via virgin blue (air asia sorta).. and guess what happened?

- access denied, because the page requested may contain adult materials -
aku gelak gila! hehe..

morale of the story : don't surf unnecessary things at an official places.. :D

:: 13 days to a year old boys! ::

we're 6 days away from the BIG PLAN to materialize and 2 weeks away (or 13 days to be exact) for the boys to turn ONE YEAR OLD!!!!!! time flies so fast, and as cliche as it sounds, it feels like yesterday they were born to this world.. making our life more cheerful day by day.. :D

they've been developing so well, alhamdulillah.. and adib has shown some progress on little steps.. he's now confident in cruising around the sofa, and at times will give an attempt to walk on his own.. he has managed 2-3 steps so far.. afiq has not show any interest yet, but i believ it will be soon enough for them to walk around the house freely..

they've managed to follow mommy's action when i sang the famous nursery rhymes e.g twinkle, twinkle little stars.. they've started to waive their hands when i say bye.. and they will look up at the sky looking for birds when i ask, "where's the bird?" it seems that afiq and adib has sucha passion in animals, that they can be glued when they see cats, butterflies, birds and monkeys..

they also have learned to look good.. when mommy blow their hair (i hafta as adib hair is so so so thick) they'll sit quietly and patiently for mommy to finish.. they look kinda 'perasan' when we put sunglasses on them.. hehe.. they now know where to find comfort, and has started to squabbles for toys when playing together.. haha.. whatever is in the other's hand will be the interest of the other boy, be it afiq or adib..

so, the big plan is coming up.. birthday is coming up.. mommy has plenty to do.. am planning for a small birthday party.. BBQ, pastas and soups.. garden party with atuk, wan, tok papa, tok mama, uncles, aunties, cousins and a circle of close friends.. (i haven't send out any invitation yet, but it's going to be a small one, so please forgive me in advance for the limited invitation.. even the list is not up yet)

okay all.. that's my latest updates.. pretty busy and merawang² week ahead.. hehe.. take care.. enjoy this entry!
