Motivation

Being a mother and a wife is the toughest task in the entire world. i bet it is easier to be a president of a country than being a mother and a wife.

You need to be motivated all the time. You cannot be depress or down in order to get trough the day. heck you cant even be sick.
Your daily activities is filled every minutes of the day. If you are a housewife from the moment you are awake you need to do a lot of thing. If you are a working mom too. Well that is for me. I do both.
Working, Cleaning, Cooking and etc etc. Tiring as hell. sorry to say but im happy to do them.It is just that emotionally, sometimes i am down to. Tiring and disappointing. But i dont really play well with my emotion. Usually i will just ignore them coz i cant afford to be down and depress. my family daily life depend on me totally.

to tell the truth i am tired. but i am feeling satisfied that i did everything right by the end of the day.so i dont really have time for myself. mandi pun anak tagging sekali. (dont imagine how), so no time for myself. but it is not a bad thing that every friday during lunch time i will savor those long lunch period for  myself. go out with friends and eat expensive food bahaha or go to the salon and spa. so that is my precious time. 

 Usually at 5 pm sharp i will run to my car to fetch aleena. not a minute waste.i got long chores awaiting me at home too. 

Fetch aleena from nursery , keep milk in the fridge, breastfeed aleena, wash and sterile bottle and pump, cook, do the laundry, sweep and mop the floor, get aleena nursery stuff ready.

so yeah..

Our mini House Warming

Did a mini open house. My awesome MIL cooked delicious nasi dagang with krutuk daging and udang. Seriously awesome.

so call a few close friends and family to come and instantly become a house warming as well.

(again long overdue post)

 

Grand Hyatt Hotel Kuala Lumpur

Looooooong post overdue.

Let me just say that im a sucker for lavish and expensive hotel.
i dont like travel much, so whenever im in need of a holiday, i would rather find a nice hotel and check in for a weekend.

Been to most hotel in KL already. 
Let me do a bit review on Grand Hyatt KL.

Its a new hotel. i check in back in March? Cant really remember.
but anyway we had a good time here. will gladly to go again.

We love the buffet breakfast but, it is soooOOOoO expensive. baaha but the view is breathtaking!
 View from our room!







   cantik kan.... tapi malas nak tulis panjang panjang. bye

Buffet- Impiana Hotel KLCC

This hotel has been solely our family favorite ever since forever. (Family means- My husband , Aleena and I)
We usually check in for a weekend there but most of the time we just went there for breakfast buffet. We really like the enviroment there. Very pleasant and calm. the atmosphere is very relaxing.

The food is nice as well.The staff is very friendly and attentive. We always been greeted politely and they always attend to our needs efficiently. Aleena loves it too.

I will make a breakfast buffet entry some other time. 
Last Thursday Mr Husband decided to treat me to Tonka Bean Impiana Klcc Hotel.
He always make a sudden wonderful treat for me.That is why i dont really care much whenever we dont celebrate our anniversary or such. I dont really make a big deal out of it as he always nice to me. Treated me to all kind of special things day and night regardless its a special date or not.

anyway, we were lucky that on the same day the hotel is making a Pre-Ramadhan buffet for the blogger and media to try out and make a review about it.
so Yeah more delicious and drooling buffet spread for us. VERY LUCKY!

But as i was there for the food and quite hungry i dont really fight with the bloggers for the picture. As i always go there for ramadhan buffet as well , so i kind a have in mind already what is the spread. 
the new food they add in is SALMON SASHIMI my fave!

yummeh.


 they have everything that you can name it! western eastern malaysian .
and the best part is their ice cream is baskin robin!

 My husband enjoying every dishes.
 
 so did my little baby aleena.:-) she had ice cream that night and went around running everywhere at the hotel lobby later that night bahahah.

update on my breastfeeding journey

It has been 1 year and 7 months now.
and i still love it. although it is so tiring and time consuming but im getting hang of it.
my supply at times drop tremendously and has to use up all my stock.
but then it turn to normal again
the picture is not on normal days. that is Wednesday. usually most i can get is ony 12 oz.

i try to supplement aleena with formula milk. Once there a booth at the Jusco mall and i let aleena try, she drank happily. bought a packed and mix them a few times. if i make 3 oz she will only drink half of it.

anyway, rezeki aleena, suddenly my husband office mate decided to supply aleena with her milk as she is oversupply.
so YAY! aleena now has ibu susuan. Her name is AISYAH and aleena now sister susuan is AYRA.

anyway, my milk is enough for aleena, but i rotate her stock with my milk so that i will still have supply until aleena insya allah 2 years old.
now i give to the nursery 2x3oz my milk and 2x 4 oz Aisyah milk's.

i am still insya allah gonna continue breastfeed her until 2 years old. then will try to wean her off. exercise regularly and hardworkingly so that i reduce as much as weight so that i can get pregnant again.

currently i will always called up my friends who in need of help on breastfeeding. 
anyway can always contact me and i will happily share my experience.

owh btw, i am not the kind of person who pump once and get oz of milk. top is 6 oz. but mostly is 4 oz. i am thankful that it is enough for aleena.

:-)

having another baby?

i really do want another baby. but i am not fully ready yet. 

first and foremost aleena is still fully breastfeed. as she barely eats much, but eats jugak la. can finish the whole chicken drumstick? hahahah

she depending my milk most of the time.

my mil has been asking bout this countless time.she said i need to give aleena a friend to play with. bahahah not a good reason to have another one as for me quantity is not important as the quality is. and i know my MIL highly praising me on very good jaga anak.hihihih but not now as aleena still need my attention fully.

nevermind send aleena to nursery already have many friends to play with if that is a reason for me to have another baby.


but anyway, according to chinese calender. if i want to have a baby boy for the next one, i need to conceive by may next year. not that i believe much in it as it is syirik hahaahh.

i wanna write again

i shall write again because when i re-read again all the post before, i felt happy that i can trace back all those memories. nowadays the fact that i dont have time to do so, solely because aleena cant see me at peace. she will stalk me weh! toilet ,kitchen, anywhere. she bang on the door every time i go to the toilet and basically push the door open and smile and play "cak cak"(peek-a-boo) with me.

let start slow, okay.

jom cerita pasal my maid (sepupu/pengasuh aleena) ran away.

she is my husband cousin from kelantan. she is 20 years old. dia dah tak sekolah lama dah. she has been taking care of my husband grandmother before and after she passed away she just stay home and do nothing.
then my MIL asked her to take care of aleena.
she agreed. she has been doing a great job taking care of aleena. physically. but she dont really like to play and all with aleena. aleena usually will play by herself. watch tv when she dont watch. and slept a lot.  
i will cooked a bit extra the night before as my maid will re-heat the food. i dont want her to leave aleena alone and cook. so yeah. she will help around the house a bit. such as laundry, sweep and clean the floor. that is it. cuci toilet i buat,  masak, urusan lain semua i buat lah.

i dont mind as long as aleena stayed at home. means no need to send her to nursery-lah.
so anyway,

one fine day, nik father side grandma pass away in kelantan. so we rush back. and we cant bring her along(i think she wants to go back along) there is no space in my MYVI okay. 
what happen is that she decided to run away. called her parents, leave a note and bye bye.

she told me before that after raya she wanna go back for good. yeah we are all okay with it. called up nursery and booked aleena place for after raya. where we will trained aleena like half day for a week or so. not like totally leave her just like that to a stranger.

but no... she decided to be really dumb and leave us just like that. bullshit enough not even dare to answer my phone call or sms. dont even have the courtesy to call or sms to ask how aleena is doing in nursery. where in the first place she seem concern to send aleena there. seriously.

but after all that, aleena is doing fine in the nursery nowadays. it took her 2 weeks to blend in and be comfortable there. after that she seem eager to go every morning. will write a special post on her nursery later.

as for us as a family, my husband and i have a blast without her as we dont have to constantly worrying bout her. where whenever we went outing, she wont follow, so i had to either cooked and prepare her meal before hand. leceh paham. now no more we are free. i dont have to cook each night for her meals tomorrow as well.
 and we can eat whatever we want.

and no stranger at home.
just US.

i dont want to have a maid anymore. housework is not a problem to me.
but  having a maid that i have to  BELA is a no no.

hantar je anak kat nursery and pasrah and constantly doa Allah s.w.t will protect them. dok rumah dengan maid pun bukan selamat mana.
