Mr Ladybug on my Frangipani

Good morning everyone!

Today I have rabbits running free in my garden. They escaped from the cage yesterday but it rained all day and I couldn’t catch them. This morning I am rushing to an event in Melaka so I am pretty sure by the time I come back, all the vegetables and herbs in my garden will be destroyed.

Pasrah! OK! Pasrah!

Takpe lah plants will grow and that the end of the day, these bunch of frangipani or plumeria or kemboja will be waiting for me, looking all pink and pretty.

I have two pink kemboja trees, the one in the pic is about 10feet tall growing in the garden and another one is about 4-5 feet tall, planted outside the fence. Both are flowering right now. If I am not mistaken my friend Bani gave me the branches. Entah mana dia rembat tak tau la tapi aku sangat laaa.. I love kemboja! hehe!

The two pics below are taken at the plant outside our fence. Since the plant is shorter I can take a close look at the blooms and this morning I saw this tiny lil fella! Isn’t he cute?

Hello Mr Ladybug! How are ya doing? Miki and Rafa are missing their Daddy lah!

Ladybugs are really cute but seriously you guys don’t be fooled by their shiny black spots and bright red coat! LADYBUGS are evil!! Once Azman’s entire long bean plant was eaten by dozens of tiny ladybugs, masa tu memang rasa nak picit-picit jer menatang ni! Haishh…

Have a great week ahead guys! And for my fella urban gardeners! Happy Gardening! :)

My Happiness – Motherhood and Morphine

It is lunchtime at the office and I wanna take 15 minutes to jot down something in the blog. About my happiness. Up until 12.20pm today.. I hope nothing crappy will ruin it later on!hehe

First – my work. We had the Board meeting this morning, and the management listed my achievement as one of the highlighted success for year 2012. 3mil target and 16.7mil was achieved by my department. And that department consists of only me! One woman show yo! I am happy! Yeah!

Two – I drove Rafa to the babysitter’s house this morning. Usually Azman sends him and I send Miki to school but because I was going early to prepare for the Board meeting, we switched anak. Hehe. And while driving with Rafa gogo gaga in his car seat by my side, I felt this thing that I think people call happy. In my heart. With no absolute reason. Then I looked at Rafa and I realized that he is one rich source of happy for me. Like an oil reserve that could support global petroleum demand for the next million years – that kind of rich! And he doesn’t have to do anthing. He just sat there and play with a plastic toy and said “gaa gaa ateh ateh ateh gaaa gaa atehhh..” and he made me darn happy!

Three – Way back before I left the house, Miki was up so easily. He showered and while he was brushing his teeth, hurriedly I told him today Daddy was going to send him and I needed to go NOW cause I have a meeting at work. I said bye baby I love you and by the time I was reversing my car out of the porch, I saw him standing at the door fully dressed in his school uniform. I wanted to stick my head out of the car and scream “Mummy loves you, Miki!” but I was really in a hurry… Oh, He is so handsome, my son Miki and he has gone so big and clever. I love him so much. And how easy he can please me just stand there dressed nicely for school without me telling him, and I now I feel so happy I want to buy him that 500 bucks LEGO set he wanted.

Gosh.. Motherhood I am telling you, is one hellova strong morphine…

 

Below is a video of my “oil reserves” goofing around before bed. Miki still has a bottle before bed, and he likes to tayang-tayang botol susu tu kat Rafa knowing Rafa akan tergedik-gedik nak jugak… Haha…

 

Have a nice day everyone!

Rafa Bugaboo – Rafa Budak Bulat!

Booooooo!!

rafa comel

 

Our baby boo Rafa loves to do this nowadays! Bulat kan mulut kasi muncung sikit…. Booooo……

nuh rafael

At 7 months Rafa is very mobile and crawls all over the place. He is very clingy to me, he will start to whine once he sees a glimpse of me, even when he is happily playing or watching TV. At times, I have to creep quietly behind him and speak really softly so he wont realize that I am around. Sekali dia sedar.. mesti start merengek for me to pick him up.

rafa el

Hahaha! Rafa, you are the most comel baby in Mummy’s eyes… Those round cheeks, round bright eyes and especially when you do your lips like that!

woooo baby wooo

Rafa my baby boo!

rafa and miki

Abang Miki pun geram nak ikut! Haha!

He can’t get up from lying down to sitting position yet but he tries very hard to stand up from sitting position by holding on to furniture or us and sometimes he does succeed. He needs to be monitored all the time because he would pick up small objects and puts them in his mouth. Once I caught him almost eating Miki’s eraser! OMG! Imagine the risk of choking.

Since he was much younger, we noticed that Rafa is unafraid of water and heights unlike Miki yang macam gayat sikit. So boleh bayangkan macam mana kalau Rafa dah dapat kaki nanti… harap jangan la suka memanjat sangat and lompat sana sini. Our house now is bigger than the one we live in when Miki was Rafa’s age.

Dulu rumah setingkat takde tangga.. sekarang ada tangga, balcony, garden and more rooms to explore. My lower kitchen cabinet pun ada 18 pintu penuh dengan glass ware kot… Tolong la Rafa nanti jangan buat onar ye? Mummy, Daddy and Miki sangat saying Rafa! Muahhhhh
