SELAMAT HARI RAYA!!!

Yeaayyyyy!!! Besok raya :)

Though, I'll be working and it's just a normal day at work. Hubby is blasting the radio with raya songs at the moment and suddenly I miss being home with Mama and Boboy in Kg Baru. By this time, Mama would be in panic mode trying to finish cooking the rendang and kuah kacang for tomorrow and Boboy would be hidden somewhere under the cupboard because takut bunyi mercun! I would be in the room sorting out the duit raya angpows.

Well, at least we will try to celebrate as much as we can this coming weekend- it will be Haidan's first ever Raya. I'm sure he'll be excited to see his Ummi Zihan on Saturday and then meeting his favourite aunties again at Marisa's later.

Oh, oh... Also, Mate will be coming from Amsterdam in 2 days- hooorrraayyyy!! I so miss her and am looking forward to spend raya with her and meet Michal.

So, Salam Aidilfitri to all my family and friends. Maaf Zahir Batin!

Happy 4 years Anniversary

"When the stormy past is put behind us,
The sunny future will shine brightly before us"



Dear Hubby,

This year is a special year as we celebrate our first anniversary as parents. Haidan's arrival in our life completes us as a family and it's the best thing that has ever happened to me. Thank you for your love, support and understanding and I promise I will try to be a better wife and mother. Let's give Haidan the best that he deserves.

Love always,
Wifey

The dream home

We went out for dinner in town and while walking back to the car, we passed by a real estate agent office. And there it was... like a shining light, an advert for a 3 bed townhouse on sale. It's situated at the most sought after area of my borough, with the easiest access to town and bus & rail stations, but still amidst the beautiful greenery and calmness surrounding I so desire. 


Then, suddenly I imagined myself and Haidan arrived at our "home". Our little rose bush along the private driveway welcomed us. As soon as I opened the door, Hubby arrives home from work.  

While Hubby parked the car in our private garage (just next to the entrance door), Haidan and I went straight to our favourite part of our home - the kitchen. 



While I boil the kettle, I went through our lovely organised kitchen cabinets for some HaroonAli teabags and biscuits for tea. By this time Haidan was already running to open our garden door to cari Boboy the cat, whose enjoying the early evening breeze in our mini garden.


While I serve tea at our garden patio, Hubby went straight up to the 1st floor to his small office- his retreat, his private little library. As usual, he'll check his letters and bills, made a few notes and then head to the living room. He opened the door of our private Julliette balcony to let some fresh air in. He settled in his comfy couch and turned on the TV.



About half an hour later, Haidan ran up the stairs to the living room to join his daddy while I started the bath running in our big family bathroom on the 1st floor.



A good bath, dinner and some DVD movie watching together- it was time to go to bed, and up we go on the 2nd floor. While I washed my face in our ensuite shower room, Hubby tucked Haidan to bed with a storybook in Haidan's room. Soon after, we all retired for the night, all happy happy and looking forward for the next day again.....

..... (sigh)

... what a good dream, Adita.... dream on....

Salam Ramadhan :)


I am so sorry that I have abandoned my blog. I have no one to blame except myself. It has been a whirlwind roller coaster ride since I last wrote, with the inlaws' visit to crazy workload to our short city breaks and to the lovely time-outs with my girlfriends.

Tup, tup dah September! Haidan is already 9months old and can stand up on his own while holding on to everything and everyone!  He still have  to take his antibiotics every night and go for follow up checks and treatments in St Heliers, but other than that he's totally fine and lepaks. 

Puasa time in September is a tiny bit longer than in KL. Tak lama lagi nak raya, then not long after Mama & Vas arrives. I so can't wait!!!! 

Anyways, to all my friends, hope all is well. Salam Ramadhan and selamat berpuasa!
