july updates

Updated : My Internet connection died on me when I was halfway editing this entry. Pergh.. For your info, I've not been well lately. am down with flue, cough, running nose, block nose..GOSH! Mr Bert said I snored louder than before because I can't breath properly..sigh... During this pregnancy, I've vomited about 5 times (3 times because I had a late lunch (Angin=pening=vomit), and 2 times because of this coughing/flue thingy). This 2 days weekend I didn't go anywhere..was supposed to go to 2 weddings, and 2 luncheon, but it was all cancelled cause of my condition. Mr Bert was sweet enough to get me a piece of mud chocolate cheese cake since I couldn't attend his friend's wedding. Awww.. Okay, now back to my original entry..

On this peaceful Sunday morning, I've decided to update this blog of mine. Anyways, latest updates? It was Mr Bert's birthday last Friday.
Since I was not feeling well, it was just a simple do.. (I didn't even take pics! sighh). At midnight, I took out a small square sized Walnut Brownie, put 1 candle on it, and sang to Mr Bert (with the sengau-est voice ever!). He then opened up his presents:- I got him a new hp (yes, I cannot tahan his current hp..can keep as spare! ;p) and the other one was from Munckin..

Box with Daddy's picture on it..

Taa-daa....The words said it all! :) *It was quite hard to find this Bib in Kl*

Mr Bert as always..expression-less. :P
At night, we went to Octopus Sushi for dinner. (Reminded me of good ol' worldcup Octopus Paul).
But I was coughing quite badly.So we quickly ate dinner & went back home.

Cian Mr Bert..such a very simple birthday treat..I had other plans actually, but what to do, tak diizinkan oleh Nya..
Dia, Hope you have a wonderful birthday my dearest hubby..can't wait to celebrate your bday next year with Munckin nanti..I'll promise to make it superb yah! ;) love yah dia..

As for my Munckin, lately there has been lotsa "dancing" in the tummy! :)
Munckin will kick or move during certain parts of the day..usually late morning, late afternoon, and in the evenings.. I enjoy every single bit of it!

Also lately I've been doing LOTS of online "window" shopping for Munckin. Cloth Diaper/ Stroller/ Car Seat/Play pen/ CLOTHES..you name it, they have it! Of recent I purchased Munckin the first batch of Cloth Diapers online! (cause it was on special..gotta grab it!).

During my off day on Wednesday, I went out with my mom & my aunt to shop for Munckin's things. Erm, lets just say that the backseat was FULL of Munckin's things! hehe.. We bought a bathtub set, nappy changer mat, AVENT bottles set, some towels, storage boxes, and some clothes (the clothes were from my mom kay..she got excited!) Aunty Mah bought us a sterilizer, food warmer & breast pump (alhamdulillah..)and one of Munir's friend is gonna "loan" us the baby car seat.. Rezeki Munckin betul, alhamdulillah..

So now, the main things that need to buy are:-
1)PlayPen + nappy changer area-since we're not getting a babycot, need the traveling one instead
2)stroller- since we're getting a carseat, maybe stroller can wait until Munckin's bigger perhaps
3) Breast Pump accessories- I meant, the cooler bag, milk bottle storage, etc
4) More cloth diapers? hehe.. wanna buy the velcro ones this time..

At least, Munckin's getting the his/her things now.. aren't you a lucky baby? *^_^*

Oh yeah, here are some clothes my mom bought from Surabaya.."Neutral colours" for Munckin..

My school recently had a WorldCup Day, where all children (and teachers) are required to wear a Jersey of any team/country. Due to my current size, the only "biggest size" jersey was a South Africa Football Association. So, I am with the South Africa team..

And, my teachers & I performed the Waka Waka Dance for the children! It was my idea, cause I love that song. we only had one week of practice. The children enjoyed it, and some followed our dance steps too.. I have it on video too..let see if I can upload on YouTube. hehe..

Look at that Mak Buyung..tak sedar diri betul..menari mcm nak aper..hehe..

The teachers planned out some activities for the children. We had a mini goal post for them to kick the ball into... Suhayl here showing off his skills..

Teacher Rita's children were nice enough to come to school and talk about the World Cup in general, and brought along the Vuvuzella. See how Dalwyn covered his eyes because of the loud sound...

Some also coloured their own jerseys..

And some admiring the "imitation" of the actual golden world cup trophy..

Here are some group photos of the children in their jerseys..

One of my favourite...countries united as one!

It was a fun day indeed..the children enjoyed it..the teachers had a gala time as well!

Well, once in every 4 years, next time Munckin can join in as well..:)

This was one of the events I attended last week with Mr Bert.. "Envisioning Parenthood". Cost per entry, RM10 per person (including hi-tea!)..so worth attending for!

It was a very good event, especially for parents-to-be like us. They had several talks about baby preparations, different booths with baby products, even there's yoga for parents (see pic below). I enjoyed this session very much..

But, the hi-light for the day (for me at least) was becoming a model for the fashion show! I was selected by the organizer to be a volunteer model. In my previous entry, I had a fitting session for my baju. It was a grey-ish, black-ish, white-ish combo blouse. I also get to wear their black leggings.

Anyways, here's us back stage for our short rehearsal.

Here are my new found friends, Deena & Syafa (and Syafa's daughter, dina)

Here's me at 6 months pregnant!

Top by Egg: RM 398 (no kidding)

Leggings by Egg: RM 200

Black tudung: my own, from one of my black jubah actually

Inner grey anak tudung: From shades (thank you for loaning!)

Here's me getting make up done before the grand walk..

Mummies-to-be, all in queue ready to model..

It's my turn, getting ready for my runway walk..

Here's us, all models with the VIP guest..

I enjoyed being a model, even for that 5 minutes of fame. Although I didn't get to keep the bajus, but the fact that I was able to wear a RM 600 attire was pretty exclusive right? hehe..Such a fun day indeed...:)
