You've got a new ride and it's a whale!

My dear Shahmey,


it seems that you refuse to sit (or even lay still) anymore. Whenever ummi holds you, you always struggle to go. It is okay if you sit down quietly and let ummi finish browsing internet doing the housechores. You didn't sit quietly my dear. You crawled everywhere and collect anything and put them in your mouth.


It's not only that. Since your legs are strong enough to stand whenever you reach something that could help you to stand, it makes ummi very worried. It has been a few times that you fell down and your forehead... oh dear, just look at your forehead. There are a few swollen marks on your right and left side of your forehead.


Yes, partly it was our fault that we didn't take care of you properly. But, it was also your fault for being so restless and made it so difficult for us to hold you. So, the marks were actually a proof of your gentleman! heheee....


To solve this problem (is it a problem dear? slightly.. because we can't do anything else but watching and holding you all the time but an achievement to you), abah bought you a whale. Nope, a walker. Nope, its a whale walker since it looks like a whale but act like a walker. I can see, you are happy getting a new walker huh!





Yes, when you sit there for the first time, you were very excited, especially with the added toys given together with the walker.





But, you can't hide the swollen forehead you've got there dear. Fortunately they're almost heal now.





Still, ummi feel guilty of letting your kakak kakak did that to you. But, don't blame them totally dear. Ummi told you already right....





But now, you're not excited at all. You don't like the walker because you're not a free man boy anymore. You're stucked there. You know why? Because your feet are not long enough to touch the floor. Thus, you're not able to walk using the walker, yet. Perhaps, it is designed like that since it's a whale and not a real walker anyway heheeee... You're very frustrated for not being able to move around.





Oh dear! pity you. But, whoever put you there must be tired of your going here and there. Its okay to cry dear. Letting your tears out will relief you, so much. This morning, kakak told ummi "Ummi ni macam tak sayang anak, ummi biar je adik nangis" while giggling. Ummi giggled too because that's how ummi taught you to be a brave boy!


You have to be persistent in order to succeed. You should be smiling, no matter what people did to you. Though they put you in the walker, don't cry dear *giggle*





But, when looking at a new swollen on your forehead (right side), ummi has to admit, that was ummi's mistake! I'm sorry but my head was so dizzy this morning that I had to wander yourself and knocked your head at the wooden bed head...

he is improved :)

Today, my dear Shahmey is exactly 8 months and 1 week! By this hour, he is able to:

1. crawl (merangkak) - 2 days after menyusur ke depan (in English apa ke benda entah panggil ni.. heheheee)
   
   
2. stand (berdiri) - when he reached something that he could hold on to and stand, he never wait... terus berdiri and 'gendang' or grab whatever he thinks interesting in his eyes :)
   
   
3. Menyusur /Menyusup ke depan - not long after he was able to turn over (meniarap)
   
   
4. Turn over (meniarap) - we waited so long for him to turn over. A few days after we reached Al Jubail (he was almost 6 months then), he turn over...
   
   
5. Sit (duduk) - after being tired of crawling, he usually sit down. The way he sit, sebijik macam Sophea (kakak) masa kecil:)
   
   
6. Smile (senyum) - oooo.. this one dah lama sangat dia pandai. Macam reti je tengok camera when I took his picture.. Definitely not a camera shy!

I'm glad that I could capture this while I remember. For my 2 daughters, I could hardly remember when they started to do all the above... perhaps, I could only remember the time they were able to walk - Sophea: exactly 1 year old, Sobhan: a week or two after her 1st birthday.

Lambat berjalan Sobhan ni tapi dia lah yang paling kuat memanjat... *grin*

Shahmey, you grow so fast. Ummi is really breathless taking care of you at the moment. You don't want to sit still anymore. You are a curious person. When you see something different or interests your eyes, you struggled to let yourself off ummi or abah and grabbed the things.

Ummi and abah always 'quarrel' about who had to hold you first when we went to friends house (meal time) coz' each of us definitely wanna enjoy the meal rather than holding the 'restless' you (its always ummi had to hold you and abah... go makan laaa). Its not that we don't love you. We really love you but we love the food too.. heheheee

Its fun though watching your progress.

Ummi and abah always glad to tell each other of your progress.... such as...

"Tengok bang. Dia dah boleh merangkak..." its ummi dear

"Takdelah... dia heret kaki aje tu...." that's abah

After a while...

"Haah laaa... dia dah boleh merangkak... eeeee... anak abah... dah merangkak ye...mari sini... ala manja dia.. ala bucuk dia..."

Sweet kan Shahmey Ummi and Abah ni... Sweet tak Shahmey?? Ish Shahmey diam la pulak... gaaa gaaa... giiii giiii je ni... Nape Shahmey tak jawab ummi tanya ni? laaa.. lupa pulak ummi.. Shahmey tak pandai cakap lagi... heheheheeee

Shahmey's video - 1 month and 23 days

The video was taken when Shahmey was 1 month and 23 days. It meant for abah (who missed us a lot - Ummi supposed leee) to view (it had been 23 days that Abang left us for Al Jubail). Unfortunately, Ummi didn't manage to email it to abah...





p/s Kak Coan yang tak habis-habis gomol adiknya





Kesiannya Shahmey menangis nak susu...
