Awesome London :)

So, last month we had a family vacay to UK (it ryhmes doesn't it?);p from 30/4-11/5 to be exact. It was d 3rd oversea vacay for Anas after Singapore n Bali. By dis time, Mommy is a pro already to handle him in d long distance flight. We all naik Qatar Airways by the way. Sufficient entertainment for toddlers during flight. But being Anas, macam2 drama gak....mak layankan ajer....huhu

It was suppose to be Spring in d UK but the weather was kinda cold ranging from 12-17 degrees. The coldest when we were at Portsmouth, it was 8degrees. Nasib baik bdk kecik ni Mommy dh preparekan long john n lotsa jacket. The most important n bestest thing was we x sakit throughout the hols. So syukur for that....TQ Allah!:)

Enjoy d pics (lots of it) :)

In d flight....QA offers good price to UK with transit at Doha

 Alhamdulillah dh sampai....Ultraman with Tok Ma n Acu

After touchdown, rest jap....then terus jalan2 to high street n pick up Adam my nephew from skool. Amboi, Tok Ma....rindu sgt kat Adam ler tu...;p

Then we went to Adam's old kindi.....Anas had a blast playing there....the playground was like in Teletubbies land...seriously....hihi..

Next day when to Oxford Street...jln2 then met this Penangite who done biz selling London souvenirs...dh 10thn bukak kedai kt sini...gud price we got here...hihi

Bali Bagus!!

Salam all........:)
This humble tenggelam timbul blog of mine really need a 'lil update after so long of nothingness...........heeee.....do excuse me as my spare time in my 24hrs is spend looking after my Ultraman Kenit ;p


So, last April`12, me n my fam went for a short vacay to Bali, Indonesia. We were so excited n it was the 2nd trip for Anas via flight. Lots of drama during pre n post flight but we managed to pull it off...........hai Anas, Mommy wish i can make a video of all ur dramas for you to see when ur grow up, so u can see how 'panjang akal' u r!


Our tour guide during our stay there was Pak Isme along with his colleagues. Semua bagus2 dan baik2 bangat! I loike....sabar melayan we all yg over excited sight seeing Bali....huhu. We stayed at Royal Bali Beach Club @ Sanur. Nice place n i thought we had the best room bcoz it was seriously right in front of d pool............bliss!:)

Complete wif living hall n kitchenette........terbaekkk!

When we arrived it was already near to dinner time, so Pak Isme straight brought us to nasi padang restaurant called Restaurant Sederhana...:)

Our first meal there...they sort of hidang all sorts of lauk in front of u for u to choose. Their Jus Alpukat is simply yummylicious!! Aduh, lapar plak bile tgk gambar ni...huhu

Since my laptop is not co-operating  so well atm, so i just gonna paste random pictures of places that i went....enjoy!!

Overall Bali is a gorgeous place that one should visit. If u appreciate arts n nature, this place is for you!:)

Two Places at 1 time??

I can't be at two places at one time rite??
It's either here...

OR

I chose the latter pic bcoz kalau pegi to the first pic, tak boleh bw Anas, si intan payung...huhu. 

But, before that we will be hittin' here....weehoo

Such a contrast of weather within the same month. I hope 'lil Anas can cope with it. Hope all will turn out well....insyaAllah..Ameen...:)

Best Balm

The other day, Anas was having bad cough plus on-off fever......keadaan ni berlarutan nk almost 2 weeks. Im kinda worried takut viral fever ke ape ke...smpi pi SDMC SJ buat blood test just to make sure there was nothing wrong. Alhamdulillah, result showed everything's good. Sepanjang Anas batuk2 tu, everynite I will sapu balm kat dada n belakang n a bit at his nose. This is to promote a better n soothing sleeping for him. I've tried various balm...n i hv a few favorites.

Badger Night-night Balm........Made of Lavender n Sandalwood. This one is kinda mild n has pleasant n soothing smell. But for fever n cough purpose, for me not so effective because its not strong enough. Anyway, this balm is recommended mainly to help promote better sleep bukan utk flu,etc. So, utk guna sapu malam2 on daily basis sesuai la but not for cure anything.

Badger Headache Soother Balm.....Made of Lavender, Sandalwood, Eucalyptus, Mandarin, Peppermint n contains super concentrated Menthol Crystals. That's the secret n this balm is definitely my fav! In fact, the first tin tak habis lagi i dah restock on 2nd tin. This balm even though the name is for headache but by all means its suitable to be use when ur having flu, headache or when tgh tension or pressure smpi tegang2 urat kat leher tu bolehla sapu balm ni. Its very soothing n kalau nak sapu everynite pun boleh. No harm coz its 100% organic.

Vicks Baby Balsam......I've also tried this....i sapu nitely kat Anas sampai habis jugakla 1 botol. This one is kinda mild tak macam Vicks utk adults tu. The menthol is not so strong. Tapi kalau lepas mandi nak sapu sesuai jugakla. 

21st Century Children's Vapor Balm........definitely my fav!! Thanks to Hana of http://mylittletotjourney.blogspot.com/ for recommending this balm to me. This balm is a strawberry medicated ointment which comes with two effects - The Vapor Effect & The Warming Effect. This one the menthol is kind of strong...sesuai sgt nk sapu kat anak yg tgh flu n batuk. Mesti depa tido dgn aman damai, insyaAllah. Bau pun sedap n ada effect vapor n warming yg best tu. Highly recommended to u all mommies out there.

So there u hv it....my reviews of several balms. Hope it is useful yah!:)

My First Movie Nite Out!

Anas is 2 now....so, Mommy decided that he's kinda old enough to be brought out for a movie nite....yippee!!


Mommy planned out the whole outing (as usual la!). So, Anas first movie at the cinema is SeeFood @ MBO Cineplex, Subang Parade, 10th March 2012, 8:45pm....heeee. Mommy chose SeeFood because its a Malaysian produced cartoon that is shown internationally to 90 countries (if im not mistaken....sorry in advance if its wrong info). N MBO Cineplex @ Subang Parade is the nearest n most convenient to us, so obviously we chose to go there.


Sebagai persediaan awal, Mommy prepared all these for Anas :
1) Sweater
2) Blanket
3) Socks
4) Diapers n baby wipes
5) Susu kotak
6) Air kosong


fuhhh................mcm nk gi mana jer. penuh bag mak dgn brg2 bdk kecik tuh.over sgt...padahal nk gi tgk muvi setakat 2-3 jam je kot...huhu...biasala, first time...mak nyer yg over excited..heh...anyway, all these things for me r kinda essential al-maklumla dlm cinema kan kinda cold.

MBO @ SP....

Anas & Daddy......:)

I'm ready for my first movie Mommy :)

Throughout the 1st  hour of the movie, Anas khusyuk betul tgk muvie sambil makan popcorn....kinda fascinate kot first time masuk wayang...hihi. But, being Anas....after that mula la jalankan projek. Kejap nak kluar la, kejap nk duduk kat tangga la, kejap usha lampu tempat duduk la....macam2. But we managed to finish the whole movie successfully. Bravo Anas!!:) Next time, kalau ada movie best....we can do another round k darling!mmmuahhss...........

Anas is Two!!

My lil' prince Anas turned two on last 25th Jan. Last time when he turned one, we had a big party at McD. But this year, Mommy decided to do a low key one. A mini birthday party for him! Well, actually it was a reunion wif my BFF at UMWT cum mini birthday party la. The concept was potluck sbb mak x larat nk masak byk2, boleh? Hihi....The reunion was supposed to be all mommies outing, but i proposed to them to come over my hse, bring their kids n potluck. So, that's where Anas's mini birthday party idea came about as our kids are more or less d same age...so boleh kira buat play group jugak la kan.


So now, lets layan d pics (since im a lazy blogger to edit d pics at Photoscape, kite tgk pics satu2 la ye....heee)

Start of d party...kids playing...as usual got drama here n there, rebut toys la, etc....d usual...huhu

More kids playing.....sebagai tuan umah kita harus pasrah keadaan umah kita apabila aktiviti bermain dijalankan ye puan2....keadaan akan menjadi seperti dilanggar torpedo seketika...huhu...
