a few updates

Update 1

Yesterday evening, after performing my Maghrib prayer (I was still sitting on the prayer mat), Shahmey extended his hands towards me (hulur tangan), asking me to pick him up. When I extended my hands back, he quickly walked away. He went to the drawer, picked a book. Then he came to me. It was a Yaasin booklet! I guessed he wanted me to recite the suratul yaasin. Actually I always did that when I was pregnant with him. I was so touched when my 1 year and 2 months old boy did that. My tear dropped...


Update 2

He only uttered a word 'Ummi' when he cried, asking for milk or whenever he needs me. He cried 'Ummiiiii!!!'. Other than that, he never call for 'Ummi'. I hope to hear him saying 'Ummi' not only when he cries. Soon enough, I hope.


Update 3

Shahmey eats a lot now and poo a lot too hehehee... Alhamdulillah. I hope it is a positive progress. He still on breastfeeding though. He eats anything we gave him. Of course he's kind of choosy sometimes. He would taste the thing first. If he likes it, he would eat it. Otherwise, he 'bluekk' it heheee...


Update 4

He walks really fast now. He stumbled sometimes though when he off balance. He didn't cry unless I or Abang walked away from him.


Update 5

I guess Shahmey could sense we'll be having a new member in our family. He's pretty independent now. He plays alone sometimes especially when I had to take a nap.


Update 6

Climbing? He's good at it and that makes us very worried. We had to make sure the chairs were not closed to the tables or kitchen cabinet. Very dangerous because he likes to play with scissors. He had cut a few of his shirts so far. Luckily he didn't cut his hands!


I'll continue update his progess in future entry.

Pity my little boy!

It was only 2 minutes that I left him with her sister, Sophea to go to the kitchen. Abah was about to sleep, in the room with them. Coan was playing by herself, also in the room. Sophea and Shahmey was playing at the corner of the bed.


As a sudden, I heard a loud cry from the room. It was Shahmey! I didn't expect anything bad as everybody was in the room. While I was in the kitchen, I hears Shahmey's voice was even louder. Abang came in the kitchen with him.


"Mata dia berdarah!"

I looked at Shahmey and almost cried looking at the blood on his face. I noticed quite a deep cut on his eyebrow. I asked Abang what happened but Abang kept saying "tak tahu la, budak-budak ni".


I went in to get Gamat ointment to put on Shahmey's wound. I saw the kids (Sophea and Coan) were sitting on the floor quietly. I knew they were scared to get scolded. They were so quiet. I only managed to tell them off. I took the Gamat ointment and cotton butt. I rushed to the kitchen, quickly applied the Gamat ointment on Shahmey's scar. I was so damn worried. I asked Abang whether we should bring him to get stitches but Abang said, didn't have to. The wound would attach soon.


Shahmey only cried for a while. After I put the ointment, he kept quiet. He was more like puzzled than pain looking at us touching his face. My brave boy - just like the meaning of his name - sacret, smart and brave!


We cleaned the blood on his face (actually it was caused by him - he rubbed the wound and blood was smeared all over his face). Abang put a plaster on the wound to avoid the wound from getting infected. But, this little Shahmey could sense the existence of an alient thing on his face. He tried to pull it away. Fail for the first few times but finally managed to pull if away. Up to 4 plasters, then we gave up. No more plaster because he would surely pull it away again.


At night, when he was about to sleep, I asked Abang to put the plaster back on. It was okay and it lasted until morning. I finally got to know Shahmey's head was knocked at the bed corner. The corner was not that sharp but really hard to cause a cut on a fragile object like Shahmey's skin.

I am 1 today :)

Shahmey on his birthday - picture taken at Gr@nd Continent@l Hotel, Kuantan



This costume is a gift from Atok (anyway, all other cucus also got it...)



I wanna cut the cake!!



This is my Atok!



Ummi bought this big cake especially for me!



This is my cake! Why my kakak-kakak were so busy body??

Well, its 17 May 2008 and it means I am 1 year old today. I think, I progress a lot - at least to my ummi's attention. There may be some progress that Ummi and Abah don't know. They will be my secret hehehe...


Let me list all my progress so far:

1. I can walk! Though I did stumble after a few steps, I am much better than Kakak and Kak Coan. I guess that something to be proud of (to me at least)
   


2. I could utter a few words like Babah (Abah), Kakak but not Ummi... poor my lovely Ummi... I'll learn the word slowly. Don't worry my dear Ummi... though I can't utter the word 'ummi' yet, you're always in my heart (anyway, you're my food supply hehehee...)
   


3. Needless to say, I can climb now. Of course, that makes my Ummi very worried because, I can easily fall down when I couldn't balance my body. Again, pity dear Ummi... she had to run here and there to make sure I was okay.
   


4. I can make faces. All pretty girls out there, beware when I'm around. When I blink my eyes, it doesn't mean I'm giving a hint okay ;)
   


5. The straw! How wonderful to drink using a straw. Ask my Ummi and I don't think all my kakak knew how to use straw when they were at my age. But, be careful because if I don't like the taste of the drink, I'd definitely spill it out.
   


6. The phone. Though no one can understand me, I can use the phone (put it on my ear) and pretend I was talking to people. You can see my Ummi and Abah excited faces when I did that.. hahahah!!!
   
   
7. If the bed or chair was too high for me to go down, I would hold on people's hand (usually, it'll be my Ummi or Abah) and crawled down.
   


8. I love fries (especially McD's). I like rice with chicken soup too.. yummy!!
   


9. Never play fool with me. If I want something and you try to take it away from me, I would grumble and scream out loud, real loud...
   


10. Somehow, Ummi could notice that I like books. I like to flip through all kind of books though I can't read them yet. So far, I did tear a few of kakak-kakak books.. hehee..
    


11. Memunggah is my specialty. I think that's because I was curious to know why people arrange things so nicely. What will happen if I ransack them??? hehehe...
    
    
12. I'm sure there are more but Ummi can't remember them all now... Let Ummi add to it later...
    
    

Enjoy looking at the pictures that were taken by my lovely Ummi, on my birthday. By the way, the birthday celebration was in Atok and Opah's residence in Bukit Kuang, Kemaman, Terengganu... Thanks Opah for preparing Sate, Nasi Impit and Nasi Kerabu. Shahmey wasn't able to eat them all since Shahmey was so sleepy... Shahmey slept early that day... hehehe..
