Excited

11 months +

with daddy

It is just amazing watching her growing up right in front of my eyes….from a little helpless crying bundle to an active joyful tot she is today.  
Soon she will be one year old and I am now making plan to mark her 1st birthday. Nothing lavish of any sort but just a simple party would be fine. With now being summer a simple do at the park would be great but thinking about it outdoor venue might not be very practical unless we have proper tent and seatings for other kids. I guess our house would be the obvious choice the only hindrance is its small and limited space. Hmmm like I say, I am now making plan of this little project….what to cook, what cake to bake or rather to experiment as this mommy is not that good in kitchen department. Only two weeks to go and I couldn’t help feeling excited……

Update, not really.

I have always been terribly terrible at sticking with things that I do, this blog for example. I have a million and one things to blog about but somehow I just could not find the time to materialize them. The truth is…I’m not good with words, I hate writing up and always I ended up hating what I wrote. But I do need to keep this blog alive because I would love to keep records, progresses and moments of my darling Mya as she grows up as well as recording this new phase of my life as a mommy. It would be good to be able to look back in many years to come and to see what kind of journey it has been.

My baby is now 11 months plus and she is such a lovely happy baby. She never fails to smile whenever she sees me back from work. She likes to sing her baby song ‘nananaa nana papaaaa taaa’ and sometimes she sings herself to sleep. She has not make a full use of her legs yet though she has now started to take few small steps aided by the sofas, furniture and anything in between cruising around our living room and sometime moving straight to our dining lounge assisted by the walls.

I found myself missing her so so so much during the day when I’m at works. And by 5pm sharp I would be dashing straight home and to see her beaming smile would just take all the tiredness away.

And I am now moving slowly to becoming a size 12/14 from an 8/small 10. My protruding tummy and my already huge shapeless butt are making me feeling disgusted with myself and I rarely enjoy what I see in the mirror these days. Disgusted because all my tops are tight and this is making me feeling so uncomfortable and body conscious all the time. And NO it was not the post baby bulge but thanks to my unscrupulous eating habit since I started work (and since I have my sister in-law around as she is such a great cook!). I must write more about this body issue next time…

Mommy's precious gem

Gorgeous little gem! At 8 1/2 month..showing off her teeth.

If I can't have you

 ..during the day, I must have you during the night.

That is what I think in her mind-set is.

She is no longer following her usual routine. In fact she now has her own new bed time routine for the past 1 month or so...she must have somebody next to her, sleeping together with her otherwise she would wake up and cry. She would not sleep in her own cot, as soon as she was put inside right after she doze off she would wake up again and start crying, standing right up and looking for her mommy. She would not want anybody else to comfort her....degil nih..

Its gonna be tough to break this habit....*sigh*...

On my feet...

Major 8 month milestone..well done my love!

Mapun gan ka'au Mya...?

Mya with her 'bayut' given by her puidoh...all the way from Miri...TQ puidoh.

Back to work

Been back to work since the last four weeks and I am loving it. Loving the buzz....Though it breaks my heart leaving Mya behind but in reality this mommy needs to work and earn a living. At least I know she's in a safe group of hands with her mak ayang, her pak ayang and her usu.

It was hard for the first few days plus the fact that she was full of cold and fever but again I have no other feasible choice. She is all well now apart from slight cough but nothing to worry about according to the GP.

And she is just getting more adorable each day...aaahh....my sweet sweetie pie.
