Bob's 21st

 Salam. this 4th child was born in Kota Bharu 21 years ago..weighed about 3.1kg, very fair. that time Bosnia was savagely attacked and ruined. The impact: he looked like one Bosnian.

I can't remember how old he was but must be 1-2 years old. Baju raya ni.

 this one.....about 4 or 5 years old. Red was his favourite colour, unlike now...shocking GREEN

First year at UIA, i guess...still skinny and good looking ......................

Just started to bergaya with the new cacak hair style

He always joined me fishing...but he was not that lucky unlike the mother.

Now oredi stylish.....

Then,  look at the size......dont ask the weight........

My shopping body guard

The latest snap.......hang jangan nak cuba suruh umi pi minang lagi BOB........ikut giliran k.....apapun i love you with all my heart and soul......happy 21st birthday and take care

 

Akak at Mandy

 Memang sedap weh....

Today akak celebrated her birthday. She turned 22 already. Hmmm thinking back, it all started with me saying that i was ready for another child when looking at Along playing alone in the house. God willing and granted me a girl,2 years after that.

Born at Kota Bharu Hospital, she weighed at 3.1 kg, quite a bundle. 20 days after the delivery i took her back to Jitra by plane...the first to fly was akak.....hehe....but i found handling 2 children was too much, Along being so active that tok and wan also could not handle him...Even before confinement was over, i returned to Kelantan.  Kak Jah the sitter took over and she was so attached to this lady. Akak was the first to take her steps when she turned 9 months, very early compared to others. She was very independent as when she turned 3 months, i suddenly started pregnant again...

The day akak turned 1 year, we had a birthday celebration for her, at that time i was not feeling comfortable already, saying that next day, i would deliver the baby. true enough, 0n 25th Feb, i delivered Farhan @ Bob...That's why the two always celebrate birthday together.

So much for the history, now we come back to reality.

Today, after maghrib, abah took us to Restoran Nasi Arab Mandy, a newly opened middle east restaurant, near Yusuf Borong. So happen Eman has been working there for about a month and he suggested to celebrate akak's birthday there. So off we went and true enough, the Mandy Rice was so tasty that alin and ayish savoured their meals happily ( these two are normally fussy). 

Eman arrived bringing the supposedly secret cake....he rode his bike from Jitra, holding the cake. i can imagine how slow he had to control the machine and handled the cake at the same time. But he managed.....a prove of his love to akak.......however it was not a secret anymore, as Atih was so forgetful that she told akak that eman went out to buy a cake. adoi she ter forgot, thinking that the occasion was for abah n umi......apapun we had a great time there.....except that i was still thinking about Bob and Along who could not be with us.

After that, we went separate ways: abah and umi to kampung, the children went home........hopefully akak would be happy with our simple celebration.......what matters the most is our togetherness in whatever we do. Happy 22nd birthday akak n 21st for Bob.......

Terima Kasih Daun Keladi

 Rasa tak lengkap kalau umi tak sebut nama2 individu2 yang telah sukarela membantu urusan peminangan anak sulung pada 11 feb yang lalu. Dari kanan, Cikgu Nordin, seorang yang juga pandai berbahasa dlm adat meminang ni.Dia adalah suami kepada pengasuh Ayish..di sebelahnya ialah abang sulung ganti umi, Hj Azizan, baru pencen dari Maybank. Besar hati umi dia dapat bersama-sama. Di hujung nun pula ialah suami kepada anak sedara, Jiman kami pangge dia. Orang Selangor yang balik utk bersama kami.

 Ni dia mak pengasuh Alin n Ayish. Umi ajak sekali. dia pun sure nak tgk macamana sbb kak Su pun ada anak dara.......(dulu bekas cikgu kelas menaip umi ni)

 Ni baru orang yang kena highlight. Hj Akib, sahabat baik aruah my father...yg sudi menjadi wakil kami walaupun dia sakit mata, tapi  menjalankan tugas dgn jayanya...umi masih ingat pantun dia, lain padang lain belalang...itu script universal yg depa mesti guna utk membuka bicara. Di sebelah beliau ialah wakil pihak perempuan. Tok Imam tu pak sedara tunang along....tak tau la hang along nanti, getaq kepala lutut la kena interview. Yg baju hijau pucuk pisang tu Eman....masih muda. Yg baju merah ialah Mat Wan ( my nephew)

 Kami menjamu selera sakan hari tu. Mee Kuah n Bihun sup plus kek n dessert n fruits....raya anak2 sedara umi. maklum mai jauh.....

 Kena selit jugalah gambar bakal ini...nnti orang kata sapa pulak kan.

 Ni macam raya saja. semua tekun makan selepas upacara selesai.

 5 hantaran tema hijau kami dibalas dgn 9 tema kuning coklat....yg paling sodap ialah pulut kacau yg lembut gitu.

Akhir sekali, bakal bisan bersembang demi mengenali hatibudi masing2...dua2 cool......yg kepohnya dua2 mak.......................besalah...........

Sapa Punye Majlis Ni?

Aduh! Sudah tua rupanya umi.........

My New Home

 Syukur, dah 3 bulan menderita debu2 simen dsbnya, rumah ni dah hampir siap. yang tak buat lagi cuma tile dibahagian porch. seminggu lagi ok kot

 Nampak rendah dari jalan sebab rumah ni memang di bawah jalan. Apapun ok la tu.

 Dining room yang simple utk kami makan bersama. Hari ni baru gantung curtain. Tq Kak Su yang tolong jahit. biarlah seleroih saja kan.

 Blue is my love......walaupun orang nampak tak elok, tapi bagi umi eni memang sui......ada nampak itu breadmaker atas counter? Belum guna lagi tu........

 Scene dari pintu living room....kuning biru ni warna Perlis tapi Kedahan pun boleh kan....

 Ni living room yang lama dan yang baru........luas sikit kan....boleh la sapa nak  mai golek2.....

 Ada la sikit space nak letak barang......

 Ruang favourite budak2 sebab ada tv.....but umi tak berapa minat dok sini. my bedroom is my heaven....

 Dari sudut lain pulak......

 Dapur lama yg jadi dry kitchen cum stor....ada la ruang gak nak rehat kalau mau.

Umi doakan agar rumah ini menjadi Baiti Jannati............
