Recent purchase in Hermo & Watsons.

I made a lot of financial damage this month. But only after I separated a bit of money for raya & of course, I bought all these skincare because one (1) its a need and I ran out of it so I need to add some more, two (2) its my two top wish-lists and Hermo is on sale!

I'm starting to ran out of sunscreen & my cleansing oil. These two is a must because sunscreen is definitely one of the most important key to avoid pigmentation and wrinkles, sooo... and sunscreen cant be washed off using normal cleanser (as per what I read) and I need a cleansing oil for that. There's only one cleansing oil I've been using ever since the start which is Hada Labo Cleansing Oil and since its on sale in Watsons, so I grab 'em.

To be honest, its a bit pricey which retails for RM 57.90 and I saw it was sold for only RM 37.74 on Hermo but sadly I was a bit late as it is out of stock before I get to check out. Sobs. So Watsons is having a bit of sale and I got it for RM 40+ which is a good deal too!



And as for sunscreen, I am currently using Biore UV Perfect Milk SPF 50+ and fair to say, its good too. I have a sensitive skin so I only opt for physical sunscreen. Eventhough it leaves a bit of white cast but for me, I find it nothing troublesome. And I wouldnt risk myself for another redness and itchiness if my face is not compatible with chemical sunscreen. And I shall credit Iman Abdul Rahim for her blog post on alcohol free sunscreen available in drugstore though because I immediately aim for this fella, sunkiller perfect water essence (alcohol free) and also a type of physical sunscreen. I thought of buying it in Hermo though but then I scratch it out because I needed to make sure on the ingredients lists. 


And yea, I need to buy this because I such dry lips and silly me always forgot to drink a lot of plain water, and also because I ran out of it so yeah. Nivea has been my favorite for lip balm, ever since I started needing them, like 20 years ago? Hahahah.

Hermo Haul! Jeng jeng jeng! 

Nahhh not definitely a haul though. Just I got whatever I wanted on my wish-lists! My two top! 



I remember I blogged about this previously, how I seriously wanting it so bad. Thanks to Hermo 612 we are local sale, the price gone down a bit and fair to say, I find myself not entirely ridiculous for spending nearly a fortune for it! Well, for me, of course. Mandelic 5% Skin Prep Water from Wishtrend have been in my wish-lists ever since it was first established in Wishtrend. Its safe for sensitive skin & its a type of AHA which is safe for breastfeeding mothers too! I just cant wait to try it. Well this Hermo packaged arrived at my doorstep yesterday but I was too tired last night I didnt get to try it, YET. 


This fella has been in my wish-lists too ever since Anis said we should start taking care of our aging skin. I was contemplating whether to get this or Klairs Midnight Blue Youth Activating Drop as their function is nearly the same but I shall say this Ginseng Serum wins my heart. Which I know is a bit early to say but I hope it will function and glows my skin! They have this Ginseng Mask too but I find it a bit wasteful for masks because you only wear it for few minutes and then you have to wash it off (definitely my preferences so dont bother). So I opt for this Ginseng Serum. And too bad I still havent got the chance to try it. And I hope it does wonder to my skin!

Its a bit early for me to say, but why not.

I've been experiencing period pain BADLY for the past years and every month, I would take MC because the pain is excruciating & seriously, I cant handle it. I would roll on the floor and vomit every single meal I eat. Well, I even considered killing myself due to the pain.

Ever since I got pregnant with Harris, I saved a lot of my MC towards the end of my pregnancy. Morning sickness and all, the pain was a bit different. I mean, back ache, morning sickness and all, but no more period pain (duhh, of course). I was really hoping that my period pain would end after I gave birth. They say some women no longer experience period pain after they give birth and for the longest time, I am really wishful over that to happen.

For the past two days, I told my husband that I feel such pain like I'm having my period but I shrugged it off because I am currently breastfeeding and they say chances for you to had your period is quite minimal (or so I thought). Yesterday, I was having terrible back ache and I thought it was because I was fasting & we walked so much finding Harris's baju raya. So I was having a normal routine, break fast and all. That night I went to shower and I was surprised that I am having my period! Sad because I am pretty sure my puasa terbatal yesterday. I was very worried because I have this thought of my milk supply would be cut off once I had my period so I called my mom and told her. She denied my thought and alhamdulillah, I can still breastfeed Harris. I hope I will still be able to up until he's 2 years old. Just have to make sure I practice a good meal plan & continue breastfeeding.

And last night, I can sleep. Really? For real????, I asked myself. I mean, the pain is there, but its not as bad, get it? But I think its because I've been eating quiet a good meal plan since I got pregnant. I lay off carbonated drinks and all. Because I'm breastfeeding. But I dont know. Its too early to say that my period pain is permanently gone or just because of my diet. Whatever it is, I know I have to continue not getting all those junks for more than the limited amount so I could enjoy the non-painful period forever.

And this morning, I was a bit lazy. The pain is still there but it doesnt effect me as much. So I had my shower, drive to work & still standing working here in the office. Under the air-cond and all, which I usually avoid every single period time. I still feel a bit bloated, a bit of gurgling pain, but its awesomely bearable! I dont know, I am just having a good time now. Alhamdulillah.

No more period pain. For now.

Wasalam. Love, Nina M.

Two phone in less than a month

And all we hear now is cash flowing out and so little flowing in. Sobs. I guess its a normal things now that we have an infant/baby/kid/toddler. Previously husband bought a Xiaomi RedMi 5 phone, remember? Guess what, that one particular night, while we were struggling with Harris's illness, it was around 2am at Hospital Ampang, husband's phone suddenly was under headphone mode when no headphone/earphone plugged in. And even after reboot, still the same situation. And it off on its own. That morning too. But that day, that phone seems a bit okay, until husband called me using his colleagues phone (which also happens to be my friend too) saying that his phone cant no longer turn on. Sigh. So that night husband went to the store to claim warranty (plus we dont know what is the main problem, probably the motherboard & such so it can be claimed under warranty). But too bad, when the guy checked, that phone is filled with water.

God knows where the hell the water came from. Seriously, 3 weeks only. But the proof is there, and xiaomi got that one indicator and that indicator inside it shows its broken due to water. It affected the phone's motherboard, screen & total repairing cost would be almost the same price as the phone itself. Bummer. Damaged due to water seepage into phone cant be claimed under warranty because its considered as the user's mistake.

So do we repair it? Nahh. So husband just opted to buy from Celcom. Last time we checked under his name (before we got the Xiaomi), his name is not clear to made purchase. And soon after, we knew that, (after we got the Xiaomi) I can buy it using my name (since my name is clear) and husband can use it. So on Thursday, we went to Wangsa Walk Mall to made purchase. And its urgent for husband to use the phone since we no longer have any back up phones. Sad, is it? I used to have Lenovo, iphone 5 and few other phones I could use for back ups, now all broken already.

We came to know that husband's name is now clear to make a purchase. Wow, so fast. So he purchased it and the seller told us that Celcom is under maintenance & their system is down so husband cant have the phone ASAP even though the phone is ready stock. So, the waiting game begin. We cant cancel the registration. I called to check everyday but only sad news. Husband already gave them my phone number to inform us. Anyways, on Sunday, we went to Wangsa Walk again, to cancel (by hook or by crook), because this time, we thought lets just buy another one somewhere else. And alhamdulillah, the phone is ready. Actually they tried calling us to notify but he called husband's number which is obviously turned off, duhhh well the obvious reasons why husband gave them my number at the first place. Alhamdulillah, Allah moved our heart to come check on the phone. And well, it was quite a line. Many people were waiting to get their phone.

Husband's purchase would be Iphone 8 Plus 256GB, under 2 years contract. No upfront needed because he's been a Celcom user for more than a year.

And yesterday, I was with Harris and our phone was on the bed. I let Harris play around with the phone and know what I saw? He sucked the phone & all his saliva are all over it. Now we know where all the water came from...... Hahaha such a funny story.

So Harris, no more playing with phone okay.



I was scrolling for photos to be made lock screen and I somewhat feel this photo fits the best! Hehe, sorry Harris.

Harris is 7 months, today.

But sadly, he caught fever 2 days before. It was on Monday 21st May 2018 when we realized his body was heated up. Very. So we told Kakna to give him some cough syrup because he was caught coughing few days before. And his behavior of regular milk demand (more than the usual) screams the fact that he's having sore throat. But before we could go to work, (its husband's first day at work too so we have everything planned out), Harris seems very cranky and he was flaring. Literally. So I said I'm going to take Emergency Leave since Harris was being very clingy. Husband still have to go to work since its his first day. On that day, he was still active. Just a bit crying here and there, but bearable. I still continue breastfeeding him and fasting. On that day too, he was having a bit of diarrhea. His bottoms turns reddish due to regular pooing. But no bloated tummy or anything.

That morning, I took him to the clinic because he started wheezing and a bit of vomiting. . Wheezing indicates that he have phlegm inside his lung, so doctor gave him neb and his lung was okay after. So I really suspected nothing bad. Doctor said his mild vomiting might be due to inflamed throat.

Towards the evening, he started vomiting regularly, mostly after every feeding. Which we are so scared of this. Well, why? Because of his intestinal malrotation. After operation, the surgeon did mention that there's still a possibility of it re-occur again. We just have to watch out for the symptoms. But I am still very positive about it because of the previous clinic visits and his vomit is white-ish. Not yellow-ish. That night, Harris doesnt show any positive progress. His temperature just keep spiking up and wont go lower than 37 degree. But we waited because we just got the meds this morning.

3am, I slowly get Harris to wake up to give him meds. And he was crying. Well of course. He was quite weak the whole day. But still a bit promising conditions since he can still play around. And then I breastfeed him. Before he could digest, he vomit everything out. And then, again, he vomited yellow-ish fluid (just like before he suspected of malrotation). Husband quickly said, get up, we're going to the hospital, NOW. So I called my mom to inform her and we shoot to HUKM (place where he had his operations). The surgeon said in case he showed any symptoms of it, straight away bring him to HUKM emergency. And so we did. During that time, his lungs were not clear. So the doctor neb him again & he was brought to x-ray to check on his tummy.

And it was 6am. Boy, how sleepy we are.

Alhamdulillah, the x-ray was clear. The doctor said the same like in his previous clinic visits. Harris vomited due to his inflamed throat. At HUKM, Harris was really active. So the doctor didnt suspect anymore further. He was discharged.

We reached home, feeling so lethargic, Harris's body started to heat up, again. He doesnt like cool fever, he tend to brush it off. So I wet few towels and wrap it around Harris's body. And then left him with Kakna because I cant afford taking another EL. Husband also, because he had to take half day on the second day of his new job.

I got home that evening, Harris was still feverish. Kakna said there's one time his temperature spiked up until 39 degree which is worrying. So I continued wrapping him with wet towel. It gets dry very fast too. Harris started showing symptoms of short of breath, wheezing and his breathing was loud. So later that night, we went to Rampai Puteri to neb him. But the doctor said, he has no more phlegm in Harris's lungs, but his pulse were fast, breathing loudly, temperature isnt that very promising even after medication. So he gave us a refer letter to the hospital.



I was tired wey. I just cant handle the stress. You know how bad I can be when I cant clean my room because Harris's being super clingy. So I was quite stress. Lethargic from the day before is still havent recover and now this. Such a bad mother I am. I really have to watch out whatever I said, some things I never meant to say but that big ass ego always wins over me. Haihhh.

I really dont know where I want to take Harris anymore. I mean, he had few records in few hospitals. And I am too tired to think. We went home, packed his stuff, and the clock hits 12am. Damn I just wanted to hit the bed so hard. But Harris is still crying. He looks restless, uncomfortable. Pity him. Big ass ego amalina, such a bad mother, I cant stand looking at Harris being so ill. We went to Hospital Ampang & got him checked. He had his x-ray (for his chest) and blood test to check for lung infection. It is because his temperature is still very high & he seems very weak due to vomiting. We had all those tests finished around 3am. 3am guys...... In between that, of Harris being restless, crying. Waiting with a sick crying baby is definitely not good guys. If you cant handle the situation with strong mental, get your husband to help you guys or anyone. I am saying because I know how it feels, being alone too.

And the doctor said, his blood result will come out in 2 hours........and we cant even go home :((

Harris was already so tired. He's weak, sleepy, hungry, and very much cranky. So I told husband lets wait in the car which is still inside the hospital compound so I could breastfeed him and we both could get an hour sleep. We did, and then around 5am, we went back into the clinic. Our number being called, sleepy face and all, we went to see the doctor. Alhamdulillah, no lung infection. Just his platelet reading is a bit high due to his inflamed throat which is an infection.

All three of us was literally smacked. So tired! And we arrived home around after sahur time. All we need is bed but Harris is still crying. So I breastfeed him and put him to sleep. Oh boy it felt like 5 minutes that we had a nap and the clock for subuh starts to ring which was put to snooze for how many time god knows. An hour passed & we startled up around 7am.

And here I am, at work. Husband too. Still trying to open up our eyes. Damn we're so sleep deprived. I already explained to Kakna on his medication schedule and I hope his fever will subside in few days. Harris is supposed to have his vaccination today and its my turn taking him but since he's down with fever, there's no point taking him to the clinic because he wont get vaccinated when having fever.

My guess would be Harris is somewhat malay saying deem, beralih bulan. He's 7 months today. Some babies caught fever during that time. So I guess Harris's definitely is.


This is Harris, climbing from his baby cot. Cant no longer put him there, alone. Until we lower down the cot so he wont reach the railing. He havent start on crawling yet, but more to mengengsot. Even so, he's fast. 






On Monday, when he would cling to me like a koala. All the time. 



His lips is chapped. And bleed. Which make him cry even more. And we worry so much that we wrapped his whole head and body with several wet towels because his temperature is too hot. You know how high fever will have negative impact of babies. 


And there's me, still feeling very lethargic and pretty much the time I captured this photo is the time I didnt yawn (see how I tried smiling while holding the yawn in). With the un-ironed shawl, baggy jeans & half-crumpled work uniform. I think my Carlo Rino made a better statement than me.

Harris, your 7 months birthday is just so, memorable. (Aside than your less than one month birthday during your operation). Thanks for blessing us with such experiences. We will take this as a room for us to learn as a parent, to always take such good care of you and your future siblings. Of course, we as a first time parent, always want to bring you to the clinic, even for the littlest sickness. And not for the first time too, baby's are fragile. And from them, they hold so much knowledge in which we can learn.

So husband, are we ready for number two? Couple more years to prepare.

Wasalam. Love, Nina M.

Fat Papas & Ramadhan Al-Kareem

I've never been to Publika. Ever. But I've heard of how classy that place is. Which makes me even more scared to go. I mean, seriously, I am sooo out of the league. That one time, husband got work there, renovations work for one saloon, so he did scout on the place.

One day, he said to me, "I want to bring you to Fat Papas in Publika."

I dont want. But you know you cant say no. He's the husband. I kinda have to follow. So since today is Muslim's first day Ramadhan, yesterday he asked me, "do you want to eat in Fat Papas tonight?"

Just an update. Husband's currently not working and in the midst of starting a new job. 

So I said, "Well, up to you." LOL playing the good wife game. To be honest, I am not really a big fan of burgers. I mean, I wont go up to an extent to find good burgers. Burger stall on the side of the road is good enough for me. Haha. But since husband's kinda keen of taking me there, so why not?

So he picked me up from work yesterday with Harris and we went straight to Publika. It took us like 20 minutes to arrive.

Fat Papas is actually originated in Singapore. So one of the founder, brought it into Malaysia and its Halal. For Singapore outlet, I am not that sure.


I ordered Holy Ceaser & husband ordered Wimpy. You can customize your own burger too. The bun, the sauce, the meat & vege. But since I am not a hardcore burger fans, I am not really sure of my choices so I just opt for their specialties. Dont mind the price, that is Singaporean price. Mine costed RM 26.00 and husband's is around that price too. As for the beverages, I ordered orange juice and husband had tea. They have good choices of milkshakes and their milkshakes comes with toasted marshmallows! 

Our meal costed less than RM 100 so its really a great deal for us.



The burger is served with salad and fries. The salad is nice, they mix it with I dont know what but it tastes sweet and savory and I definitely finished mine. The portion is big, for us and fair to say, we both went home, feeling so full.

As for me, I easily get bored and nausea over burgers, especially big, bulky ones. But to be honest, Holy Ceaser is delicious!
I definitely can finish it. Overall, its worth it. I gotta tell husband to bring me here, again.



This cheeky boy, see that im-gonna-do-something-troublesome-to-you-mummy kinda face. Harris has grew up becoming sooooo cheeky and loves selfie, only with me. Husband tried taking selfie with Harris but he just refuse to smile. Hahahaha. Harris has been behaving well, with his loud cooing, aihhh so cheeky.




All the time with this boy is always fighting. Be it bath time, nap time, meal time, all the time. He just wont sit still. See how he always tried to resist me and want to grab some other stuffs on the table. Anything that captures his attention. Other than, people. 



Husband, forever the camera shy person, especially when he feels that people are watching. Well, I am too but I choose to ignore. Picture matters! Hehe. 

After dinner, we went straight home because I feel like, I have no shopping to do. Plus, the place is too classy for my shopping spree. It'll burn my wallet to dust. And definitely not my type. 

Our Fat Papas dinner was also a celebratory ones because husband got called by Mitsubishi for medical check-up. It means he's one step further from getting the job! Alhamdulillah. 

So today he sent me to work, and went straight for his medical check up. And today is first Ramadhan. I am fasting, yes. Breastfeeding and fasting. Sad to say we already start on Formula Milk for Harris. So far, he has no problem. But its just me, that feel bad. You know how I wanted to breastfeed Harris up until he's 2 years old. But I guess his milk demand is beyond my supply. But I will still continue breastfeeding. And I still practice meal plan that is suitable for Harris and to add up my milk supply. Need researching for good formula milk for infant. This is so gonna take much googling. Harris is currently feeding on Frisolac. We got it as a gift from Rampai Puteri Medical Centre so waste not. I thought that when Harris starts weaning, his milk demand will reduce but sure I was wrong. Even after meal, he still drinks estimated of 4 ounce milk. And he has become so chubby and long, he's outgrew most of his rompers. Shopping for his wardrobe is definitely a must now. 


Salam Ramadhan Al-Mubarak & Happy Fasting everyone. I am so looking forward for this year, my first Ramadhan as a mother, breastfeeding mother. 

Wasalam. Love, Nina.

Monday blues?

I am trying so hard to start my day early and its most of the days that I fail. But today, since we had everything planned out, alhamdulillah, we wake up around nearly 6.30 AM and everything goes well as planned. And I'm feeling okay about it. Husband is not late to his interview, clothes ironed well, nothing delayed, me arriving early to work, Harris is good hands, everything. We are blessed, alhamdulillah.

It was quite a bad weekend for us because of our anniversary doesnt go as planned, husband's delayed payment, mine too. And both of us were quite into our own crisis, my ego everything. Haihhh. I feel bad but I guess its for the best. Fights are good. It makes us a better person. And better relationship too. And if we dont argue, we wont know what is wrong, right? So I'll take each and every meltdowns and arguments in a positive way. I mean, that's what wife do, right?

Anyways, since I am feeling so good today (even if too early to say so but just because I'm in the mood), I'm gonna share of bit of what we did yesterday.

So we went to Wangsa Walk Mall to survey for new phone for my husband. He used my iphone 5 and I guess its time to move on from there. So we had a small discussion and husband agreed to buy a new phone. He's hard to persuade. But since we're under tight budget, we were contemplating of whether to repair the phone or buy a new one. And the cost of repairing is too pricey so we opt to find options on what to buy. And quoting the tight budget, he said he wont go for iphone (for now). So we went surveying and this and that, me being as supportive as I could be, and he go for Xiaomi Redmi 5. Its under our budget and a good phone with good features too. And I know he deserved it. He's been using only 2nd hand phone for god knows how long (because he happens to have hands like me, a very clumsy ones, maybe worst?)


I'm in love with the camera. I look so flawless, which I am NOT. Hahahah. And I feel like its a good deal. We had quite some time for ourselves, I guess its the thing we're lacked off, good communication skills. I mean, we communicate but in a very bad way. So I guess a day off just to ourselves, is a good thing. We had talks, some time in the car, while discussing what phone to get, had Ice Kimo, just like good old days, and played our favorite arcade games, which after so many attempts, he only succeed to get me an octopus toys, once! (Well, that was a while before).

And fair to say, we had great time. And I am so looking forward for more days like this.


I guess the day was so good I didnt want it to end that I dont feel like going to work today. So lazy to open emails and draft a letter. But since today started so well, it would be a waste to not finish it good also! So screw Monday blues, there shouldnt be any Monday blues anyways! 


To top all that, my siblings had bowling nights with my dad's colleague and they won few hampers and we have loads of biscuits and snacks which I bring along with me to work today, yeay! Snacking is definitely a must! And some tidbits from my mom's bowling friends for her son's wedding. Gurllll snacking is gooooooooooddddd. 


So as much as workload hates you, mutual hates to be exact, you just gotta make the best out of everything. De-clutter your desk, add pictures, quotes, fill up your drawer with good snacks. Whatever that brings out the best in you. Which in my case, happy tummy would do!

And of course, after all those sweet tooth snacking, drink plenty of plain water!

Wasalam. Love, Nina M.

Favorite 20 years ago english tv series (approx)

This came up in my mind, how I was approximately 20 years ago. While I was still in primary school. Those days were so different. No Astro. TV3 is by far the best because they air pretty much good tv series and movies. With soooo little ads in between. Goshhhh. And then ntv7 came into the picture. Spanar Jaya, Phua Chu Kang, ahhh I miss all that.

Back when we're still in primary school, school days means sleep before 10PM, every night is homework/study/tuition night and pretty much no tv for us. And they usually air good movies on Saturday night. Means, we just cant wait for Friday school to end! I remember me and my siblings look at newspaper for good tv shows. And dreading every good tv series that starts at 10PM because that would be our bedtime. 9PM would be quite okay since we could propose to start doing homework early and by 9PM, we would be in front of the tv. But with condition that we finished our homework first.

Weekend norms would be, Doraemon, Shin Chan, Power Rangers and loads of other cartoons. To be honest, I am one hardcore fan of cartoons. I watch cartoon up until now. Its one of my favorite getaways. Mr. Bean, Oggy & The Cockroaches. Goshh, those were the days.

And the list goes on and on. Rosalinda, Yo so betty la fea.......



Reading synopsis are the best! I missed out a lot on good tv series because most of the best ones are on air on Tuesday & Thursday and that's when I have tuition up until 10PM. So yea, sobs. BUT thank god for such lovely siblings, they would record all those tv series for me. How? Using tape. Yea guys, we used tapes. And we would watch them again and again, and again. I mean, that was before they have CDs. 

I remember that one day, we planned for this one movie, on TV3, during Raya I think and it was a sleepover at kampung. So we had our toto set up and everything, by 10PM, it started. And me, being the sleepy one, end up sleeping during the movie. Anddddd we didnt record since we dont have tape player in kampung, and up until now, the movie is still not on air. 20 years guys! I remember the gist of the movie. Of Arnold Schwarzenegger getting pregnant. 

Here's a few of good tv series that I dread to binge watch. But most of them are in bad quality. I'm not a tech geek so I pretty much dont know how to find good ones. I did ask my brother to download them for me, hope for anytime soon! 



I loooooooooooove how they speak to each other. Their lifestyle of getting coffee every morning, their place of living, everything! 


We recorded almost every episode in a tape guys! 


Ahhhhhh so pretty and majestic I just cant. 



So what's your favorite 20 years ago tv series? Because it's still a favorite now.

Wasalam. Love, Nina.

Harris's weaning journey, friend's wedding & Harris's sucking his toe!

Excited? Of course! From what I see in Harris, he loves eating, just like mummy. Judging from his eyes looking at the food, drooling over it, well just like mummy! Before he turns exactly 6 months, I did feed him a bit of fruits just to give him the taste of it. So he wont be so surprised over food intake. And two days before he turns 6 months, I am just beyond excited. Therefore, on Friday night, 20th April 2018, I went shopping for his feeding set. Just mummy getting super excited. 

But naah, just a simple feeding set. I wasnt getting all prepped up anyway. Because I was pretty busy with work, I didnt have enough time to do enough research. And I dread that. Because I should be excited? And do enough research on what to give, and what to cook what not. But no, I've been a bad mother. The nurses told me enough what to give and just that.... Such useless mother, I am. But me being so excited, I started feeding him solid food two days earlier. Because he turns 6 months on Monday and I dont want to miss out the first time of feeding him solid food, no. 


Just a normal feeding set. And I bought a bib too. 

He's good at seating but he also wants to get off. 


To my surprise, Harris is sooooo good to sit on chair. Except that he keeps on chewing on the edge of the chair... I fed him quite a lot and he still wants milk. 

As per advised by the nurse, first I should give him a porridge, no salt, no anything, just porridge and blend it. Not to my surprise, Harris loves it. See? I told you he's an eater like mummy. And now, I already start on a bit of carrot, cooked with porridge so it'll be soft enough to mesh it and a bit of anchovies, cooked and blended, a pinch of it towards the end when cooking the porridge. He loves it!

I guess its not too late to start on research on his weaning journey, right? And by cooking his food, I learn to manage my time well enough. Porridge requires quite long time to cook so I have to get up quite early in the morning (well only in the weekends la) to prepare his food so I could feed him while we all having breakfast. Here's to Amalina being a better mother. 



On Saturday, we went for one of our classmates wedding in Rawang. I dont hate weddings though. I just hate that I cant no longer fit into most of my clothes. Baju kurung, blouses, everything. They all look so baggy on me. Sometimes I uses Zira's clothes because I ran out of clothes I could fit. I didnt shed any weight, I'm just getting skinnier. So yeah, I keep on repeating the same outfits. 



In Malay sayings, when an infant already started to suck toe, means he wants a siblings. Well Harris, not too soon okay sayang? In sha Allah if ada rezeki. 

Wasalam. Love, Nina. ♥
