AzanDaniyal turns 6months!

Alhamdulillah, Daniyal's 6months old today.
The past month had been a busy month for him. He learned lots of new things. Doing lots of new things.
He's starting to lose some of his baby hair, which is normal because most babies face it too.
He attended a few tahlil & pengilan.
He knows how to smile when we're smiling at him. He knows how to smile for the camera.
He toss & turn really well.
He knows how to grab stuff. He knows how to suck his fingers.
He plays with his saliva, I guess his gum is starting to itch.
He loves to cuddle when he sleep. And he also loves to play with his feet.
And he loves music. He loves watching people playing the guitar and drum.
So we bought him a mini toy drum and guitar.
Oh and we bought him his first walker for his 5th month yay!

AzanDaniyal turns 5months!

Alhamdulillah Daniyal turns 5 months old today.
The past month we had a little family gatherings on Aa's side. Finally managed to take picture of the 4th generation together.
And also last month was a lot of beach trips for Daniyal. Aa loves the beach! We were at the beach almost every weekend. Daniyal even had a playdate with my friend's daughter, Qisya.
And another highlight would be: I turn 23 last week! Aa was not around to celebrate it, but atleast I have my girlfriends and Daniyal here with me.
May this be the last birthday I had to celebrate without Aa. And may I have many more sweet little surprise like this. Aamiin.

AzanDaniyal turns 4months!

Alhamdulillah Daniyal is 4months old today!

The past month was a happy month for Aa. We spent lots of our time together. We were at Bintulu for the second time. And this time we stayed about 3weeks.
Daniyal had his mitten off. He also knows how to laugh when we're playing with him.
He knows how to watch TV. And at times we would read him some stories from the storybook. And he now has his nursery rhymes time.
I wish me and Daniyal could have more time with Aa like the past month.
Can't wait to pull this long distance relationship closer, Aamiin.

Daniyal & Affan's roadtrip 

AzanDaniyal turns 3months!

Alhamdulillah. Daniyal turns 3months old today! And we are currently with Aa at Bintulu yayyy! Daniyal's 2nd roadtrip to Bintulu.
The past month had been so eventful. As I mentioned in the previous entry that Daniyal had his first roadtrip last month. We were at Bintulu for Aa's 2nd brother's wedding.
We were here for a week. Checked in at The One Inn & Kemena Residence. Both were convenient for us but I would prefer the second one because it's much more spacious than the first one.
Daniyal had been behaving well all throughout the events. He was asleep most of the time. Even when there's karaoke going on, he was still sleeping so soundly. Alhamdulillah.
Daniyal, Ummi hope you will continue to behave well in all of the future events we're going to attend yeah?

1st Anniversary

12December,

A year had passed, Alhamdulillah. Can't believe I am someone's wife for a year now. 

Aa had been an amazing husband so far. 

I had so many plans for our first year anniversary but we were extremely busy that whole week. What with the brother's wedding, family gathering plans. 

But I do managed to order a box of cupcakes for him. 

Cupcakes were from @toothlicious (insta)

Her cupcakes are not too sweet, and fancy! 

So I surprised him with this sweet box the night we were all exhausted from the family gatherings. He loved it!

Because he's my number 1 reader who reads my blog every now and then,

Here's a little appreciation post dedicated to my amazing one and only,

Thankyou for cutting my toenails when you know I can barely reach them. 

Thankyou for making me warm milk whenever I was awake from the heartburn in the middle of the night.

Thankyou for rubbing my feet before bed time. 

Thankyou for fulfilling all of my not-so-crazy cravings I had.

Thankyou for hearing all of my whiny complains.

Thankyou for bearing all of my mood swings. 

Thankyou for giving me as much time and attention you can.

Thankyou for cheering me up whenever I was being a cry baby.

Thankyou so much for being my amazing husband, my everything. 

To many more anniversaries together. I love you, Mohd Azhar.

AzanDaniyal turns 2months!

Alhamdulillah. Daniyal turns 2months today!
Our first time going out as a family was all exciting but awkward.
It was just a grocery shopping. But I was so relieved to finally go out after the confinement period is over!
But I got tired so easily this time. I used to be able to shop for a whole day. But this time I could only stand for a couple hours and then I started feeling dizzy and exhausted. Must have not fully recovered from all those childbirth.
At 2months old, he is already super naughty on bed. He rolls aggressively when he sleeps. There's been a few times I co-sleep with him and when I woke up in the middle of the night, he was no longer beside me. Sometimes I found him up somewhere above my head, sometimes near my legs.
He currently loves co-sleeping with Aa. And is very talkative. He respond when people talk to him. Still making that 'ooo ooo' sound.
And Daniyal's on his first roadtrip yesterday! We are all now at Bintulu for Aa's second brother's wedding.
During the 2 hours road trip, he behaved well. Been sleeping the entire time. Alhamdulillah.
So I guess there won't be any problem to go for more trips eh? Hehe.

AzanDaniyal turns 1month!

Alhamdulillah.

AzanDaniyal is one month old! 

Me and Aa both are still parenting. We're trying to get to know him and understand him. 

He's one smiley boy for sure. I caught him smiling in his sleep so many times already! He even laughed in his sleep sometimes too! 

This is actually him sleeping while laughing

He's got this habit of sleeping with his eyes slightly open. Just like Aa. Maybe because during my pregnancy when I can't sleep at night, I would watch Aa sleep. That's why Daniyal takes after him. 

Daniyal loves sleeping so much sometimes it's hard to wake him up for his bath time. At times he would even sleep when he's taking a bath. Well, this might be because I sleep way too much during my pregnancy? 

He's learned how to 'coo'. His mouth would constantly turned into O-shape and sometimes he would let out a tiny ooo sound. 

Aa's favorite picture of him 'coo-ing'

He loves staring out the space. As if he's got a lot of things he's thinking about. 

Enjoys sleeping on both me and Aa's chest. Longer on Aa's.

He could lift his head during tummy time since birth, strong boy. His voice is surprisingly higher than the other babies. And his hair is born with few strips of blond. Alhamdulillah.

that blond strips

We were taking some pictures while he was sleeping and coincidentally he flashed us his biggest smile!

Oh and confinement was torturing! Slightly. I had to fully cover myself 24/7. I had to put some herbs & meds on my tummy & face. I can barely take a shower. Food were strictly taken care of. I had to consume traditional meds several times everyday.
Despite my disgusting looks, Aa still calls me beautiful. Constantly persuading me that it'll be over soon. He took care of Daniyal whenever he's around. He baths Daniyal, changes his diapers, prepares my confinement meals, everything. Alhamdulillah, I am really lucky to have him.
So here goes another 2 more weeks, and I'm free!
