Hello 2018

Omg it’s 2018 already! Hello everyone! Well so many things to update and I don’t know where to start. Oh well i am now a mother of 3 beautiful kids. The last one at the moment is a boy. His name is Asil Mikhail and he’s now 5 months old. I really need to update his birth story on a separate entry so he will not questioning me in the future why there’s no story about him. Hopefully i still have time to update after this. 

So what I’ve been up to now? Well besides taking care and look after my kids, doing house chores, cooking almost every day, picking up my No 1 at school, I am still baking. Alhamdulillah not that much but I still receive orders from my loyal customers. 

What else? Ah I don’t have enough sleep everyday. My no 3 is the type that awake every 2,3 hours at night for milk or need to change place from bed to swing or vice versa. I really hope this will end soon once he starts solid food. *finger crossed *.

Ramadhan is just around the corner and i still have so many days to ganti puasa. But i already bought 2 baju raya for me from Lubna @ Zalora and 1 each for the girls from BBD. So fast eyh? Haha. And today I ordered 1 Duckscarves since they have 20% discount. Now all settle. Only left Asil and Wan’s baju melayu. Ah so excited this year as we have 5 of us now. 

Ok I think that’s all for now. Need to sleep since Asil will be awake anytime soon! Till the next post!

First update this year!

Ya Allah lamanya tak update blog. So so so many things has happened this year. On the sad note, my beloved father has passed away on January 2017. Sad beginning for this year. I miss him dearly. He is such a great father. Raya this year is so much different without him. Allahu rindunya ayah. Al-Fatihah.

On the happy note, I am pregnant with baby no three. Yes a month after ayah passed away, a month after weaned off Adele and 2/3 times of UPT (pregnancy test) i finally accepted that i am pregnant. Husband is the happiest person alive when the doctor confirmed on the test. Me? In between. Because i know that i am going to go through the all day pregnancy sickness for at least 4 months. Yeah it happened gais. 2 times warded due to dehydration. At least 10x vomiting per day. Flat abes. 2nd time admitted with additional issue, lack of potassium. Everyday kena amek darah. Herghh. 

But as soon as we found out that we're are going to have a baby, Alhamdulillah rezeki melimpah ruah. Rezeki anak tu mmg ada. Even though i have to stop Umiecanbake for a while since I can't even carry myself to the kitchen, alhamdulillah rezeki ada. The girls pulak my mom handled. Wan blk kerja dia take over. This happened for 3 months. 3 months rumah especially part dapur bersepah mcm haper. Tp pejam mata je lah sbb tak larat. 

Then around 14 weeks of pregnancy i think was our 6th wedding anniversary. Husband booked a staycation at Shangri-La hotel. And he surprised me! Well he made it this time. Haha. A flower bouquet with a dozen of roses, hotel room deco, cakes. I'm so touched. Blessed him for trying to make me happy when I'm still not in a healthy shape. 

I started to be ok a bit at 17 weeks. Quite fast compared to the previous 2. Alhamdulillah. But my gynea advised us to take a long gap after this for the next baby since my pregnancy sickness is really bad.

After first week raya, byk gak outstation Wan kena pegi. So being me as a  clingy pregnant wife, mengikut lah. Safiyya pn asek ponteng school. So i am now blogging from Seri Pacific Hotel. Last week we checked in to Avillion Admiral Cove, Port Dickson. During fasting month, we checked in One World and Grand Blue Wave Hotel. Back to back. Penat dah nk mengikut lps ni. Penat pack and unpack. Lol. Tunggu this September pulak check in for a birthday gateway. InsyaAllah. 

So how's pregnancy so far? I'm now 24 weeks pregnant. Gender? Rahsia. Haha. Only few people knows including my mother. My other family members pn still xtau. Still having that lambat-makan-masuk angin-muntah moment but jarang la. Lidah still kelat2. Tp takpe as long as x muntah. Still malas masak. Tp can't see a mess. Mesti nk mengemas. Ni perangai since first pregnancy. Hopefully anak-anak tak malas lah dh besar nnt haha. 

This time kuat shopping and nk melawa je. Part melawa ni baru start raya aritu.

Pastu tetiba belajar basic makeup. Baru je lagi last week tp dh beli a few makeup items. Haha. This only happens if husband sporting layan bini. Hihi. 

Mcm-mcm dpt dh this year. Husband bought air fryer, pressure cooker, juicer, air purifier, iphone 7 and handbags for me. Tak mintak pun semua tu except handbags tp it was hubs wishlist since last year. Extend a kitchen cabinet and new door for our store. New mpv. Well not new lah it's a secondhand car but syukur enough. It's like a brand new car. We still keep the forte. Syg kot still cantik and in a good condition. Nk jual xberbaloi maklom la xde value pon. Alhamdulillah for everything. Syukur. 

Oh nanti InsyaAllah pantang sendiri. We already booked a confinement lady. Since my mom tak berapa sihat and kuat dah mcm dulu we decided not to burden her. Hopefully ok lah nnt CL tu. Booked her for 2 weeks stay in dulu. Ada extra money baru extend. 

Barang baby so far baru beli nuna leaf and few sets on baju. Baju tu pn baru beli smlm. Ok la lps ni focus barang anak je instead of barang mommy. Haha.

I think that's all lah for now. Please pray for me ya. Hoping for another normal delivery. Hehe. Till our next post, Selamat Hari Raya AidilFitri! 

2016 In Summary [updated]

Hello everyone! 2016 is ending soon. What did I accomplished this year?

January - I DIY Adele's birthday party. Just a simple one but i did almost everything by myself like a dessert table, simple deco and a homemade salted caramel for a doorgifts. Only the birthday cake sponsored by my bestfriend on that day. Alhamdulillah the event went smoothly.

April - I made a biggest decision in my life. I finally submitted my resignation letter after 9 years with the company. Hardest thing to do in my life at that moment. But now after 6 months being a stay at home mother, no regrets at all. In fact i'm enjoying my life now.

May - Safiyya stopped going to school after she had a useless teacher (that teacher had been fired as informed by the principle). She refused to go to school and I didn't force her since we are moving to Melaka.
Adele admitted to the Pantai hospital after 5 days of fever and cough with phlegm and flu.

June - Two days after my last day at work we finally moved permanently to our own house. No more shuttling Melaka-Rembau-Cyberjaya. Unless if i have brownies order. Hehe.

August - Went for a short trip to Ipoh. Well more to "jalan-jalan cari makan" actually and we had fun.

September - Made a devil's food chocolate cake for the first time for Safiyya's birthday but then she didn't even eat it. Haha. Celebrated my birthday at Tony Roma's (finally a proper birthday celebration without the girls making a scene) and got an Apple Watch as my birthday gift by husband along with 2 pandora charms. May god bless him.

October - I received an invitation from theduckgroup for the Alphabet Duck launch. My first event ever. I dragged along my husband and the girls so I don't have to worry about the time hehe. Feels good that I finally got a chance to join this kind of event.

November - I read a book. 1 whole thick novel within a month. Pat on my back haha.

December- Adele admitted again to Pantai hospital with high fever and cough with phlegm. Poor little girl.

As for materials, still collecting Duckscarves limited edition. Haven't miss any of the LE yet this year. But world map duck might be the last. MAYBE we shall see. Hehe.
And i bought 2 expensive lip matte. Kylielipkit and Huda Beauty. Others are 2 Lancome, 1 lipstick from Fame cosmetics and 1 Urban Decay Vice Lipsticks which doesn't suit my skin color. Huh.
I don't buy any designer/branded handbag this year except bastabag from Sometimes. Huhu.

As for traveling, I don't go anywhere outside Malaysia. But we did check in quite alot of hotels. Majestic Hotel KL for our anniversary, Ascott KL for staycation, Intercontinental hotel, Resort World Kijal (2 times), Mandarin Oriental KL, Maritime Waterfront Hotel Penang, Holiday Inn Subang, One World Hotel and Empire Hotel Subang when husband off for his meeting and Symphony suites hotel Ipoh for a short vacation.

As for my girls, Safiyya is now a little bit independent. She can tell us when she wants to go the loo. But she still insists to wear diaper when poo poo time and midnight. She will let us know if she's hungry but still she is a picky eater. Same menu everyday. Her vocab is quite good but she can't read yet. She knows which number and alphabet but can't read a word or sentence.

Adele on the other hand, such a clingy baby. She still on fully breastfeeding! We tried to gave her a few formula milks but she didn't like it. Only these few day she slowly to accept the s26 fm. I just wait for her to turns 2 this January then i'll start to wean her off. My body is now aching like nobody business. She loves nasi ayam or nasi with soup. Her vocab at her age now (turning 2 this 14th Jan) quite good as well. She will tell us when she done pooped. Haha. "Mi, biyak" "mi,nk soup", "nk ashik", "aibiyu mi", "nk andi", "nk air", "nk buai", "sakit". That's all i can remember at the moment. She is so me in terms of her "perangai" haha.

For @umiecanbake, Alhamdulillah doing great eventho not having everyday order. But the feedbacks from my customers are all good. Syukur. I only managed to join 1 baking class in October with the most famous baker in town. TheKitchenGuardian. I want to join Kak Yani class since the beginning of umiecanbake and i finally got a chance to learned from her. 😘

There are few things I didn't managed to achieve this year. Swim class, no savings, no traveling outside the country and not being any lighter (body weight). Carry forward then. Haha. I hope 2017 will be a better year for me, for my family. I already did a 2017 resolutions with husband. A realistic one. Haha. Hope we can achieve it. In sha Allah.

And so, Wishing you guys a Happy New Year 2017!
