GLEE!!!!!!

Live in London, tonight at 8pm at O2 arena. See you there!

Supermom Saturday

Today I had to put my supermom cape on as Hubby had his weekend class. Haidan, Hairee and I were rushing everywhere, poor Hairee had to be fed in the car most of the day!

Started off since 7.30am, getting the boys ready and breakfast and by 9.30am, we were off! I sent Haidan for his tennis lesson at 10am and soon after we headed straight to the nursery for their 25th anniversary celebration. Haidan was so in his "zone" - ignoring me completely and went off playing with his friends. He only came back for food! Among the chaos, I managed to take a picture of him and one of his good mates, Manas.




From then, we rushed off for Haidan's swim class at 1pm and made it on time. I managed to catch a breather and changed Hairee's nappy in the changing room. After swimming, we went to Toys R Us in Purley to get a special Cars 2 treat for Haidan (since he behaved really well at swimming).

It was here that I almost lost him! I was looking at some baby dummies and didn't realised Haidan went off my sight. A couple of minutes later, I called him out but Haidan didn't answer. In a panic, I spent the next 5-10minutes looking for him! I told the staff and the store manager and they shut the main doors. Luckily one of the staff pointed out Haidan, who was happily playing at the slides - which was quite close to where I was originally. But the fact that he didn't answer my call, I couldn't notice him. Albeit being angry at Haidan, I was so relieved!!! He got a time-out and vowed not to run off ever again.

We finally got home around 6pm. But the day didn't end as yet - Hairee suddenly decided to be very cranky and unsettled. He was crying all evening and I was so helpless. At 10pm, everyone finally settled down!

Hairee meets Zulaikha

Cars 2

The UK premiere of Cars 2 is July 22nd.

I so can't wait - not because I am a huge fan, but I just want to get it over and done with as Haidan is so obsessed with it now.

Every single day he will ask me, "Mama, are we watching Cars 2 today???" and everytime I will answer "Not yet".



Everything is about Lightning McQueen now. Haidan eats and sleeps with his Cars toys and insists he wears only 'LightQueen' spentots (underpants)! It's driving me crazy!!!

Tho... saying that, one thing good I noticed was that because of his obsession with Cars, Haidan can now managed to put his Cars puzzle together all by himself! Well done Haidan!

Bye Papa (again)

It's gonna be a hectic week (again).

Hubby left for Dubai, last minute as usual, and I have to put on my supermom cape (again).

Thank you

Last Saturday we had a BBQ party at my place to catch up with dear old friends in the UK. They all came to visit Hairee and it was really good to see them again. The last time we ALL got together (minus Kak Zihan lah) was when Haidan was born, so it was good coincidence that this time around it was for Hairee.

I am so thankful to have them- some I've known for years (Hawari dah 12 tahun kenal!) and it's good that until now our friendship is still strong. It shows me that it doesn't matter if we don't call or see each other everyday, but the respect and care is still there. It's so good to know that we were celebrating good news of Kak Aznim, Lee and Peyruh moving into their new home, Zura's engagement and Hawari's new job. Meeting them again reminds me of good sincere friendships, which I know will last for a lifetime.

And with that, I am so thankful.

Alhamdulillah.

My Spice Babies

I was going through our storage closet to get Haidan's old baby clothes for Hairee when I found something special from my memorable Spice Girls concert - the Spice Baby bib!

Here's an old picture of Haidan in Jan 2008, wearing the bib when he was about 7 weeks old.


And here's Hairee in Jun 2011, wearing the same bib!


Hehehehe, can you spot the difference?

Get ready to Wiggle!!!

Due to last year's success concert, Haidan and I booked ourselves to watch the Wiggles Live 2011 in HMV London Apollo in Hammersmith. Although Hubby left (last minute as usual) for Dubai, it did not deter me to cancel the trip. For me, Haidan deserves a treat, especially with Hairee's arrival and all... I had not spend as much time as I wanted with Haidan. So, we called Sarah our trusted babysitter to look after Hairee for the day and off we went.

Haidan was all excited since the night before. He insisted to wear his Wiggles t-shirt and hat for the day. We also made a paper guitar to pass to Murray - Haidan's favourite Wiggle member.


A Percy (train) and Thomas (tube) ride later, we arrived at London's HMV Apollo.


Hot potatoes, it's The Wiggles!!!! They performed some of their greatest hits (though I was expecting a bit more)... lots of new songs, which Haidan wasn't familiar with though. But all of them were still wiggling despite them all in their late 40s/ early 50s!


A surprise appearance from Jeff Wiggles who fell asleep amidst it all. Haidan and the kids then shouted "Wake Up Jeff!!!" and he was back greeting the kids hello.


The highlight of the day was when Murray Wiggles personally accepted Haidan's guitar! We were very lucky and Haidan was so star-struck, he was just left speechless when he met his guitar idol in real life!


Thank you Wiggles!!!!

Bye Papa

Hubby is off to his monthly business trip to Dubai and Brunei from today till next Tuesday.

So, time to put my Supermom cape on coz I'm anticipating long hours of restless nights, toddler tantrums and baby tempers! Bring on the caffeine and iron tablets - I need all the energy I can get!

Time is flying too fast....

... and my boys are growing up too fast.

Hairee can now respond with a smile if I call him.... (awwww)



and Haidan no longer wants to respond if I call him..... (sigh)
