Jadi surirumah jap ...

aaaa tajuk pun happenning ...sungguh bukan aku! hehehe ...tapi hakikatnyer, since aku cuti 23rd aritu, aku dah jadi macam surirumah sepenuh masa ...jaga the boys, kemas mengemas, laundry men-laundry and masak memasak ...yepppp, dah lama giler dah tak masak ...selalu nyer aku nie masak kat kedai kalau turn aku masak ...tapi kebiasaannya mak aku yang masak (the advantage of having my mom staying with me) ..so, mak aku kata since aku cuti tu sila lah masak hehehe ....

aku belek2 buku resipi yang berlambak kat rumah ...utk carik ilham! sebab cuti panjang, macam2 resipi dah dicuba (dengan nada exksyen!)...daging masak rempah (lupa ambik gambar!), sweet sour prawn. steamed fish ala thai ... mak aku suka sebab dia tak yah masuk dapur LOL

sweet and sour prawns

pagi tadi plak aku masak roti jala for breakfast ....yummy yummy ....geram aku sebab acuan tu cam sekat2 ...flow tak brapa elok .....rupa takde lah sangat tapi rasa cun! tambah plak dicicah ngan curry yang mak aku buat (kari yang aku buat semalam basi - satu periuk kena buang!)

simple curry for brunch

tapikan, masa nie lah aku respectkan semua surirumah ...org selalu kata mereka nie takde kerja ..but in reality banyak ooo kerja surirumah ...aku yang buat benda ala kadar ajer pun terasa letih .... aku even kata kat mak aku yang i will not be able to do all the household chores kalau sorang2 ....berat tugasnyer ...penat akak!

Lunch at Kim Bay, Kuching

Alooo ...apa khabar semua??? aku sekarang nie sedang joli sakan ...cuti since 23rd aritu and still have 4 days lagi utk joli and do nothing hehehehe ....tadi ingat nak buat posting pasal Christmas holiday ..tapi gambar still tak download lagi lah ...and then jumpa these pictures ....taken a few days before aku cuti ....as usual, since takde kerja sangat, we all suka merewang ke Kuching utk lunch ....

Bemen dah lama ajak pi makan kat Kim Bay  nie - it is actually a Macau-HK restaurant, specializing in dim sum dishes gitu ....so, tak dapat pi HK, pi makan kat HK restaurant pun jadi lah LOL ...anyway, we went to the branch kat tHe Spring ...tempat wajip kami hahahaha ...and as novice, aku ngan Chris ikut ajer apa yang disuggest oleh Bemen (yang mmg a frequent customer) ....and top of the list yang dia cadangkan is this pau ...aku lupa nama benda nie lah ...

it is yummy ...especially dimakan biler piping hot!

 

Inti nyer susah nak describe ...tasted macam lemak manis gitu and a hint of telur masin punya flavour ...sounds yucky kan? but the combination of those flavours are yummy! bak kata Fendi - harus di repeat! LOL

 yang nie aku ordered - mushroom in beancurd rolls ...sedappppp dan mantappppp ....

 as for the main dish, masa tu aku ordered 3 flavoured chicken set - sekali ngan air and soup gitu ...a bit too sweet for me ...but ok lah ...next time aku akan try dish lain plak ....

our drinks - iced lemod tea and jasmine lemon tea ....

for first try, ok jugak makanan here ....definitely akan ulang tayang kat sini :-)

P/S lizz- aku tahu ngko sedang dalam pantang, jgn terliur sudah :-)

December 13, 2010--Part 1

hi everybody....my last posting was on Dec 11th--that was 18 days ago and so many things have been happening since then...2 days after my last monthly pregnancy check up, on Dec13th-- i have given birth to a baby boy... Yes it was a premature delivery at 31 weeks...how do I start.....emmmm

Ok...that Sunday Dec12th - i experienced more regular contractions for every hour from as early as 5am---that still did not stop me from doing the house chores---looking back, i really do not know what's got into me--why did i take it so lightly, perhaps i tot i am still in the early thirties...entahlah--- when i felt the contraction, i stopped for a while then continued whatever i was doing--i just acknowledged the contractions by recording the time...only at 7pm, i called my gynae and he asked me to go to the hospital.

After dinner, we went to the hospital, i was immediately strapped on CTG to check on the contractions and the baby's heartbeat. CTG proven that the contractions are really "hard contractions" --i.e. a real thing. However, the graph on the baby's heartbeats was not showing a good pattern, they were rather low and it went downwards when there was a contraction. That was when the doctor decided that he may need to prepare me for early delivery, so that nite i was admitted-- they gave me pills to stop the contractions and a jab for baby's lungs just in case--- that lung jab is really painful...know what i have taken all sort of jabs, like epidural which went thru your backbone --but that lung jab is really one of its kind-- the nurse told me that is because of the quantity and the thickness of the liquid...sangat lah sakit. I was given another one the next day, and i asked them to jab another thigh...sakit kak!

That nite, I still felt the hourly contractions,

then next morning, Monday Dec13th 2010.....CTG still showed same pattern of the baby's heartbeat. The doctor examined me and announced that my cervix was 2.5cm dilated---walaweiii--- that was the moment of truth---it was then decided that i need to be sent to the General Hospital for emergency premature delivery (subjected to the GH specialist's opinion of course). You guys should know that most private hospitals only accept 36 week and above labour--premature babies need special equipment and 24 hour observation, most privates do not have that or perhaps, they forgo that branch of business because it's going to cost us fortune... In about half an hour or so , i was in the ambulance to the General Hospital----

.....................to be continued....akak nak mandi okays---sejuk lah sgt, winter kat kuantan :)

Kisah Semalam

Sebenarnya cerita ni patut keluar dulu tapi gambar lambat di load fr FB Lin...tak kisah la kan...asalkan ada posting. GGG.

Ej punya birthday fall on weekday...dia sendiri roger roger Ibu Lin dia ajak keluar ronggeng malamnya. Asalkan dia dapat main and lepak dengan Aqif dan Afiq dia ok je. Takde pulak dia demand nak itu ini. Tosey pun dia belasah je.

Tapi mengenangkan actual birthday EJ kami takde plan apa apa...and Fid pulak teringin nak layan western food kami terus ke Wangsa Walk layan TGI Fridays. Plan mengejut.

Masuk masuk je...posing dulu.
Kids actually nak lepak meja asing asing tapi tak dapek. Leceh biler makanan sampai nanti susah nak sharing sharing.
Pasangan remaja and adik.
Mommy trying mencari selera untuk makan.

Afiq yang mula mulanya bad mood...lepas dapat fettucine terus ceria.

Suka bangat la tu dapat jumpa member. Aqif and afiq masa ni baru balik dari kampung. The COCO hantar diorang balik kampung lepak seminggu kat kampung.
The Coco.
Ej melayan The parfait.
See what 1 week in kampung has done to Aqif. Pipi tembam tapi tetap maintain comel. Lariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.
Ej dok layan fettucine ni 2 pinggan.
Nuar first time melayan Parfait. Jom layan gambar food lak.
Ribs...besar giler...tapi I prefer Tony Romas punya ribs.
Fajitas....baru semalam aku tahu yang untuk pronounce...j tu ganti with a "h"...Fahitas.
Fettucine yang sedap.
Sedih kan tengok Fajitas ni...as compared to Chillies punya Fajitas.
The Parfait ni ada 5 flabour tapi we took 3 flavour aje...sebab yang 2 lagi tu...kureng sikit.
Tapi sayang sekali The Parfait ni cair sangat. Our previous visit lagi sedap. Aku sempat jumpa waiter mintak bawakan cake and nyanyi birthday song untuk EJ.
Ej terkejut masa tu. Sebab dia tak expect langsung.
Kena berdiri atas kerusi pastu pegang botol tu konon macam mic...kena bagi ucapan...tapi tetiba lak mulut becok dia boleh jadi pendiam tetiba. Ngades.
Tapi EJ tetap suka bangat dapat surprise macam ni.
Pastu kena paksa tiup lilin dari jarak jauh macam tu. Lawak je tgk EJ dok try nak hembus lilin tu.

Lepas dah tiup lilin tu...staff kat situ nyanyikan lagu untuk Ej. lagu macam lagu sorak tu.
Lepas dinner...the kids tak nak balik...nak lepak main. Tapi sebab esoknya kerja...kena la balik awal.

Celebrating EJ's Birthday

Birthday celebration for EJ this year kami tak buat kat rumah macam kebiasaannya. Kami buat party kat restoran A&W kat Jusco Setiawangsa. Booking pun aku buat last minute. Sib baik ada kekosongan for date 25hb tu. Cake pun tempah last minute.

Sehari before the event, EJ dok nyanyi nak gunting rambut. Dulu dia sibuk nak rambut panjang...biler susah nak uruskan...asyik nampak messy...baru nak dengar cakap mommy dia untuk gunting biar paras bahu je. Early in the morning kami dah ke Wangsa Walk ke saloon.

Aku tinggalkan je Ej kat saloon tu aku balik ke rumah fetch Fid then we went to Secret Recipe untuk lunch. Selepas lunch je terus ke Desa Pandan ambik cake. Pastu balik rumah bersiap terus pergi fetch Ej kat Wangsa Walk. Masa orang tu nak blow rambut dia aku dok suruh cepat cepat sebab dah 2.30pm dah masa tu. Kelam Kabut punya pasal dengan banyak benda benda lain...sampai terlupa nak beli and prepare party pack.

Fruit cake. Kids ramai yang suka cake ni sebab tak muak...ada banyak fruits.
Birthday Girl. Tepeng rambut gaya baru...daddy yang bengkok membayar.
Mommy cuba menggagahi diri demi puteri tercinta. CT K, Faris and Aan. Cam biasa la...Aan suka gaya enter frame dia tu. Lariiii.
Family Khaimal.
Geng Ratu Posing...tapi Zana takde. Mulanya Zana plan nak pakai gaya teenagers macam yang Ej selalu pakai tu...tight and jean skirt...pastu dok bz mencari skirt jeans...tak jumpa size...terstranded kat Low Yat Plaza katanya....lariiiiiiiiiiii.
Love Bird family.
My ex-colleague. Hadie and family.
My brother and anak sedara. Datang memasing siap dengan topi santa clause. Ej pun dapat satu.
Fid punya BIL and nephews.
Geng Ronggeng.
our neighbour.
my ex-colleague Jef and kids.
Ej's cousin mira yang belah kiri. Yang kanan tu mira's cousin.

Jejaka terhangat di pasaran. Paling terserlah baju belah kiri tu. All is one katanya.
The only Ej's schoolmate yang dapat hadir...Balkis and her sister. Ej selalu complaint kenapa birthday dia hujugn tahun...party pun buat time cuti sekolah...her frens selalu tak dapat datang.
One of the reason I chose A&W sebab they gave me assurance yang mascot will join the party. Biler Great Root Bear keluar je...tak tentu arah the kids. Ada yang nak bergambar...ada yang bersalam, ber high 5...and ada jugak yang takut sampai lari.
Root Bear bagi Ej present from A&W.

Ada ke EJ pi potong cake tu tak buang dulu the plastik yang ada tulisan tu...sib baik tak lunyai cake tu di buatnya.
My FIL, fid's sister pun sempat datang.


This cute girl namanya Arfa. Walaupun dah lama tak jumpa...dia tetap kenal aku...senyum je...masa aku tegur dia.
Root Bear bersalam salaman with the guest.
Last sekali photo session beramai ramai...ada banyak gambar masa the kids main games...yang tu aku tepek lain kali la...dah banyak sangat photo ni...letih.

gambar ni paling best...the kids semua enjoy themselves. lega party berlangsung dengan jayanya.
