Auckland and Kelly Tarlton's

Salam everyone...Maybe some of you want to know where we went in Auckland...with 2 active toddlers,you have to take them to a place they will enjoy and remember.We took them to Kelly Tarltons,the Underwater World...yup..no details,just google it and you'll find all the interesting info's.(sorry babes...I'm so lazy)

Fun and very interesting place for the kids and us.The next time you want to go for a family holiday,try Auckland.

Randy,beloved pet passed away 17/08/09

I received a call at 0815hrs on the 17Th/08/09 from my little sis,Aza....she couldn't even speak.All I heard was her cries and she said"randy".....I knew then...
I'm terribly sad of the news,my sister and my mom was devastated.They wouldn't even talk...They were both still crying when i called her 5 minutes ago.Not many would understand why it's such a big thing to us.Only cat lovers would.I don't have a picture of randy,they're all with my sisters.He's this flat faced Persian cat,orange....adorable and lazy.He's been with us or rather my sister for more than 15years..He will be missed...Even if I tell you how special he was,not many would understand...BabyBlu would as she knows how we loved Randy and how Randy has been a part of our journey in this world.
I know Randy is in a better place right now."neny...you know i love you and i will always will...:( ...)Rest in peace..we love you.

SKY TOWER......and Auckland

Salam everyone......The kids had fun in Auckland,we had fun..mainly because of the fresh air,cool weather and the city itself are well organized.Nope,its not as hi-tech as Narita or any Japan city but this city is relaxing.You can grab a sandwich from subway and sit at the bench by the roadside and can still enjoy the meal without having to worry whether you gonna miss the next bus.The city bus,which is free,comes around every 10 minutes...and even though it's free,you'll never see anyone rushing for seats or cutting the queue.You feel safe there,there are police on standby at almost everywhere...hmmm...okay,hope you'll enjoy the pics.Didn't take many of them,busy running after the kids.

Mummy's little girl made mummy proud :)

Have to share this with everybody...not bragging or "over"...just sharing my happiness with my readers.

Today Marissa tied up her shoelaces in a perfect knot!!!!On her own!!!!without me looking!!!without help from her ayah!!!yeah!!!!!good job baby!!!!

Tonight before she went to bed,she told me..."mummy...we have blood in our body.Our heart pumps the blood throughout our body so that we can live.If our heart stops pumping..we will die..."

Errrr...yup,that's my 4 year old talking...uh..does all 4 year olds speaks like that nowadays??I dunno..she doesn't go to kindergarten,we hardly watch national geo...hmmm...maybe Playhouse disney channels told her all this..way to go PHD!!!I'm proud of you baby...my clever little princess(overnye mummy)...Alhamdulillah...thank you Allah for this precious gift :)

More on trip to Auckland :)

Salam everyone.....2nd day in Auckland,the weather was sunny,temperature around 14Celsius...loved it.The kids had fun running around the city enjoying the cool breeze on their faces...Their appetite was good when we were there...the cold weather had a positive effect on them..hehehe:)..kebabs,fried chicken and fries,subway...chap chye rice,fried noodles,pineapple cookies was our menu through out the 5 days stay.Oh ya...plus big bags of nachos,chocolate,cookies,green apples and bananas...hmmm...mummy put on weight and not happy!!!

We went to the famous Sky Tower...I'm not going into details,you can google for more info.My personal opinion of the Sky Tower?Brilliant!!!Absolutely a tower which they can be proud of.Its a place where the tourists and locals can get all the info's they need to go around Auckland,free shuttles to the hot spots and free city buses to take you around the city.You can get all the tickets there itself,there are cafes indoors and outdoors and they're people friendly,children friendly,wheelchair friendly...hmmm,what else..just amazing.Very friendly people too.(kenapa la KL tower tak friendly)

Had a great time there watching tourists and the locals jumping from the tower deck to the ground..we were for almost 2 hrs,then decided to take a stroll in the city.....makan time and went back to the hotel.It gets really cold in the evening,so..time to snuggle under the comforters :)

I'M BACKKKK!!!!!HEHEHEHEHEHE......

(pictures taken on the day of departure at KLIA,08/08/09.....)

Assalamualaikum.......hello people....mummy's back....wooohooo....yeeeehaaaa...(macam la ada orang carekan???)hehehe...I'm still tired and still thinking of Auckland.We had an amazing time especially Marissa and Muaz..The weather was quite chilly for us and it was really windy.I don't really have much to tell(actually malas nak update)So many happy moments on my mind but really dunno how to express it with words...nantila...when i rajin,the stories will come bit by bit...

Ta ta everyone...:)

Salam everyone.....
leaving for KLIA at 1700hrs..InsyaAllah will come back on the 14th august at 2005hrs.Please pray for the safety of our trip :).Take care everyone and dont forget your masks..

Influenza Jab

ola everyone...hehehe..eh,lupa pulak..salam everyone..how's your day?mine was filled with laughters and running up and down after the kids,and dont forget the famous mommy's scream...hahahahaha....
We went to KPJ Seremban Specialist Hospital to get our Influenza jab.It wasn't painful for me..Marissa didn't even shed a tear...but the "cannon ball " boy...OMG!!!He wasn't even lying down on the stretcher when the kind and sweet nurse jabbed him...I had to hold him and his ayah had to hold his legs....alamakkk!!!Muaz,Muaz...why such a cry baby.Kakak didn't even cry.
So,he cried with tears streaming down his face...more like a waterfall to me for 8-10 mins before he finally stopped and chased his sister around the hospital with mask on his face.Yeah...all of us had the surgical masks on....I dont wanna take any chances on this matter...neither should anyone....(my own personal views)
What I read few days back was very sad and scary to me...The victim didn't even had the symptoms of H1N1,no coughing,no flu..slight temperature and died later that night after she was admitted in the morning...How sad is that??
I'm terribly sleepy now...I'd like to wish all muslims friends,selamat menyambut nisfu syaaban.Semoga semua amalan mu diterima malam ini dan doa mu dimakbulkan,amin.

Auckland....here we come!!

Salam everyone....:)

I guess me n my kids are going to Auckland ...hehehehe...Tomorrow we're going to get the influenza jab at the hospital.I know its a bit late to get the jab since we're leaving on the 8th,insyaAllah..but it's better late than never right?Why we didn't get the jab earlier is because we couldn't decide if we're going or not...poor decision making...Other than the Influenza A thingy,Auckland is now in winter season and August is the rainy season too..I wouldn't want us to be stucked in the hotel for 5 days..yeah,with two active toddlers..oh nooo!!!disaster....

It's okay..i just want a change of air..it will do good for me and the kids.Doesn't matter la if it rains or not.We'll find ways to enjoy our trip...woooohooo...

Well,doakan for us to have a safe trip going and back...

muahhhhaaaaahaaaaa.......part2.

hahahaha....muahahahha....part1..

"anak you sekolah ke?"asked one lady to me(marissa is 4 and she speaks well :) )

"ala..sekolah 3 times a week je,buat main2 biar ada kawan,i lah principal cum maid cum driver..hahahaha"i replied.

"hmmm..tak kerja,dok rumah bolelah..kita ni kerja"she replied mockingly..

I can only smile,a bit hurt but only for 5 seconds..



That conversation took place in a small gathering I attended few days back.The lady that said that to me,don't know me personally,she has no idea of my background,my past and my present..oh well..maybe she knows a lil tiny bit from our mutual friend...I have no idea why she said it,maybe she's one of these people who thinks highly of themselves just because they're employed by some company,no matter how lousy it is.............maybe she's just bitter because she have no interest to raise her kids herself and just want to "bitch"around..



hahahahaha...she got the wrong person.I feel sorry for her,honestly.....no explanation needed here..really sorry for you lady,hopefully you'll recover from your bitterness and will be kind to others.

Alhamdulillah......

I'm thankful for the rezeki that I have,thankful for having my kids,my husband with me...thankful for having my kids healthy and active...thankful that my limbs are all working and i'm still healthy to take care of their needs..

I am one of those people that sometimes forget how lucky I am to have all these blessings in my life.I'm thankful for the tests from HIM..means that i'm not forgotten,Alhamdulillah.One of the bloggers that i follow made me realise that life is too short to be wasted on messy things..

Life should be embrace with joy and cherished it with love and laughter.Appreciate your loved ones and always,always say your thanks to The Creator. :)

Auckland...Yes?No?...

Salam everyone...Auckland,New Zealand.The last time i visited that beautiful country was in 1995...14 years ago.I have the oppurtunity to go there again next month but the question is....should we?If we go,we'll have like 5 full days there.Tickets have been booked but we haven't collect it yet.At this very minute I'm still thinking if we should go,the H1N1 thing is really scary to me.

My last holiday overseas was in 2006.I'm really looking forward to another holiday but ..yeah..I want to think about this carefully.Yup!!I'm the paranoid mom..so bear with me.Hmmm...yes or no???

bawwwrriiingggg...

Salam everyone....Nope...I didn't get my steak today..not yet.We don't like to go out on weekends,too many people and with all the disease that is circulating our air right now,I prefer to have makan at home...;)

craving for this...!!!

I'm like drooling like mad this very minute...will pujuk my other half to take me out for dinner ....steaks...yeah!!!yumm2x..I like San Francisco steakhouse..but after i had my 2nd chil(muaz),I dont think I'm capable of handling 2 toddlers in a fancy restaurant..hehehe...maybe will go to a more kids friendly joint,Chillies or Tony Roma's...suggestions anyone?

cooldown mummy ;)

After some soul searching,late night talks,"muhasabah diri"..i know i need to chill a little in some areas of my life.To become a better person,a better mom,wife,daughter,friend...Being paranpoid about almost everything is verrryyy tiring.hehehehe...with dua's from you n my loved ones,I may become that person that I want to..thank you.

i'm exhausted...mentally..

Salam everyone....Hoping that your weekend was as you wished..hopefully you and your loved ones are in excellent health and happy.I'm *Alhamdulillah*well and happy but a Lil bit tired mentally.Physically I'm OK but my left thumb is in pain..i don't know why but i want to go to the doc tomorrow or sometime this weekend..maybe X-ray will tell me what's wrong with the thumb..poor thumb.Can't do my housework properly..it's really painful..

Last week I was busy with my work and the housework of course..I don't mind the housework's and I love taking care of my kids on my own ;p...although they do drive me up the wall most of the times but wouldn't trade it for anything else.Went to MV to see a friend,had a basic facial(almost a facial)at HABA Midvalley...fallen in love with the products.Bought some basic stuff for my face*hehehe*...

Thursday,we went back to MIL's place for a kenduri on saturday...penat,penat,penat..Went home on sunday after a week full of events..we went out almost everyday last week and I think i really have to have vitamins stock up in my house.

What really bothers me last week is the attitude of some parents.Everybody loves their children,so do I.I don't really know how to put these in words cause I'll get emo about this and I don't want to end up cursing people on this blog.

I cant stand parents who are ignorant,in denial of their child's behaviour,capability and cant stand parents who cant take responsibility of their children's behaviour.Nauzubillah,I'll end up like on of them.What happen was my kids were slapped and kicked by a barbaric kid,3yrs old and their parents closed both eyes..*Alhamdulillah* my kids were unhurt but i was pissed to the max!!I really don't want to prolong this matter here...i just want to say to those ignorant parents,if you think your kids have the ability to hurt other kids intentionally,please,please..be alert at all times of their behaviour.Don't live in denial saying that your child is an angel while some other kids are hurting at the other end.

I've never done any research on why the children's behave like this,maybe their parents are too busy to look after them themselves,maybe because they get their way all the time..i really don't know but please...don't be like this.Be a responsible parent.Don't be scared or ashamed of your kids poor behaviour,be fair to the other kid and their parents..oh may Allah always bless me in raising my kids myself and may Allah bless me always with being patient,alert and a good mommy,amin.

I felt sorry for my kids for they are still small,Marissa is 4 and Muaz is 2.Once someone told me to let go of my child slowly,so that they can defend themselves on their own......I beg to differ..there are time for everything and the time will come when I'll let go of my children.They are still small and if they get hurt because some parents "let go" their children too early,and hurting my kids physically..I think it's my responsibility to defend my kids and take care of their well being.Once again,everyone is entitled to their own opinion and i thank you for the suggestions.I don't care if people label me as mother hen or nosey mom,uncool mommy...whateverrr...I love my kids and i love raising them and I'm blessed to have them with me.There are time for everything and now is my time to protect them from unwanted things and mishaps..insyaAllah I'm trying my best....

Sorry guys for being very emo about this.I feel strongly about this is because the time has changed and we parents have to take more responsibilities in bringing up our kids on our own and not leaving everything to the maid or carer..The world now are so advanced and our kids are exposed to everything...and i do mean everything.So,please..be with your kids,nurture them with good manners,listen to their body and see them with your heart...don't live in denial and blaming other parents for not being there with their children when their kid were being hurt..be responsible.

*Marissa n Muaz:when other kid try to hurt you..you "give"it back to them..*love you darlings...

my little angels..

Salam everyone...:)
I'm in my MIL's place.came here yesterday.they're having a kenduri cukur jambul for my husbands newborn niece.I'm anticipating a busy weekend.Hopefully yours are not busy as mine.
Yeterday, Muaz slipped and fell.I was in the room n my hubby was in the kitchen fixing Muaz a drink.My heart stopped at the sound of the loud "thump".Muaz was crying and crying.I checked his head,there was a small cut and it was swelling.I didn't panicked but was feeling very scared for him.I quickly asked my hubby to get gamat and dab it on the cut and we quickly took him to Tawakkal hospital.
Alhamdulillah,no jabs or stitches needed.the doctor said it was a small abrasion but to monitor him carefully for 24 hrs or so.We don't any concussion to happen in this 24 hrs.I was so worried i stayed by his side the whole time.Muaz was okay,he was being his usual self,jovial and cheeky.Sang baa black sheep,bob the builders song...:)Alhamdulillah.
Marissa was so worried for her brother..(love u darling)Please pray for Muaz's recovery and so that the fall didn't affect him internally,nauzubillah.
take care guys.have a nice weekend with your loved ones.
