Dah lama betul tak update this blog. More than one year since it was last updated. Sibuk.... Biasalah. Asyik tangguh je.Tangguh punya tangguh, dah lebih setahun rupanya... Luckily still remember the login and password.

Well, fast forward one year. Aiman is now in Standard Five. Amir standard four. Iman dah masuk darjah dua. Aishah six years old and in second year of tadika. Akmal Haziq... the most active boy in the house is three years old.

Over one year, we lost one maid. Nearly one year with us, she ran away from our house. Three months past by with no maid in the house and everything is under control. Alhamdulillah. Babah and Mama letih sikit la sebab banyak kerja-kerja rumah yang nak kena buat (Nampak macam Mama sorang je yang buat kerja lebih. Kan Mama!)

Maulidur Rasul @ Tadika Rahmah

2010-02-27T23:07:00.008+08:00

Mengambil sempena kelahiran Manusia Agung Muhammad binAbdullah, Tadika Rahmah telah menjemput semua ibu bapa dan pelajar untuk sama-sama berkumpul dan menjayakan majlis Maulidur Rasul pada 13 Rabiul Awal 1431H bersamaan dengan 27 Februari 2010. Junjungan besar Nabi Muhammad S.A.W telah dilahirkan pada 12 Rabiul Awal Tahun Gajah.
Ini adalah penceramah jemputan. Anak-anak pasti mengenali beliau. Ustaz Zamri (panggilan manja) selalu keluar TV9 dalam rancangan Mari Mengaji. Pendekatan yang diambil beliau amat menarik dalam menyampaikan kisah-kisah Nabi Muhammad S.A.W kepada anak-anak Tadika Rahmah.

Selamat Jalan Kak Resa...

2010-01-11T23:26:00.002+08:00

Semalam, 10 Januari 2010, kami sekeluarga telah ke LCCT Sepang untuk menghantar Kak Resa pulang ke Bandung. Ini kali terakhir kami menghantar beliau pulang. Sebenarnya Mama dan Babah banyak kali memujuk Kak Resa supaya menagguhkan kepulangan beliau. Minta tangguh sehingga Akmal berusia dua tahun. Namun apakan daya, Kak Resa tetap juga mahu pulang. Mungkin rindunya pada kampung halaman yang telah lama ditinggalkan. Sepanjang enam tahun bersama kami, hanya dua kali beliau pulang bercuti. Bukan kami tidak membenarkan beliau pulang. Cuma beliau sendiri yang agak keberatan untuk pulang. Malah setiap kali menjelang Ramadhan dan Syawal, Mama selalu bertanya kalau-kalau Kak Resa hendak pulang ke Bandung.
Dan jawapannya, "Tak apalah Bu. Resa ingat mahu raya di sini saja"
Oh lupa pulak, kami tidak memanggil beliau dengan panggilan Bibik. Kami memanggil beliau dengan panggilan Kak Resa. Bahkan, semua saudara mara pun memanggil beliau dengan panggilan yang sama.
Enam tahun bersama kami, Kakak Iman yang paling terasa kehilangan Kak Resa. Maklumlah semasa Kak Resa datang enam tahun lepas, Kakak Iman baru berusia 40 hari. Hari ini, Kak Iman dah pun masuk darjah satu....
Enam tahun bersama kami, Alhamdulillah, semuanya berjalan lancar. Babah dan Mama selalu berkata, lebih kurang tu terima aje lah. Janji dia jaga anak-anak kita dengan baik.
Enam tahun bersama kami, kami seharusnya berterima kasih kepada anak-anak Kak Resa kerana meminjamkan ibu mereka untuk menjadi pembantu kami...
Enam tahun bersama kami, kami seharusnya berterima kasih kepada suami Kak Resa kerana mengizinkan isteri beliau untuk menjadi pembantu kami...
Enam tahun bersama kami, kami seharusnya berterima kasih kepada pemerintah Indonesia kerana membenarkan rakyatnya merantau ke Malaysia mencari rejeki (Part ni sebenarnya Babah yang tambah)
Dan setelah enam tahun bersama kami, pagi Ahad, 10 Januari 2010 pukul 9.40 pagi dari LCCT Sepang ke Bandung, kami malambai Kak Resa buat kali terakhir sebelum beliau melangkah memasuki Ruang Berlepas Antarabangsa untuk menaiki pesawat AirAsia.
Dan semoga enam tahun bersama kami, beliau perolehi apa yang diimpikan sebelum memberanikan diri meninggalkan kampung halaman merantau ke Malaysia....

Akmal Dah Jalan Dah !!!

2010-01-11T23:23:00.001+08:00

Alhamdulillah! Selepas semua orang tak sabar-sabar menanti Akmal berjalan, beliau telah memulakan kangkah pertamanya seminggu sebelum majlis perkahwinan Mak Tam.

Menanti Akmal Berjalan...

2009-10-10T21:41:00.002+08:00

Rasanya begitu lama blog ni tak dikemaskini. Babah dan Mama asyik sibuk je kebelakangan ni. Akmal pun dah semakin besar. Dah setahun lebih. Baru sihat dari demam. Agaknya letih berjalan. Raya hari tu kami balik Kelate seminggu.

Jumaat, 6 Syawal kami dari Kelate, singgah KL sekejap sebelum pergi ke Kota Tinggi. Tok Ayah dan Tok Ma ikut sekali. Ke rumah Untie Atikah. Meminang bagi pihak Pok Nik. Alhamdulillah! Semuanya berjalan lancar. Terima kasih kepada keluarga Untie Atikah kerana menyambut kedatangan kami dengan baik. Terutamanya kepada Untie Raudhah dan Uncle Hafiz yang menumpangkan kami di rumah mereka pada Sabtu, 7 Syawal. Layanan mereka sungguh baik. Tak tahu macamana kami nak balas jasa baik mereka. Semoga Allah merahmati mereka semua. Amin.

Selasa, 10 Syawal Tok Ma dan Tok Ayah balik Kelate.

Rabu, 11 Syawal Akmal demam dan cirit birit.

Sekarang Akmal dah sihat. Dah boleh berdiri. Tak payah pegang kerusi. Cuma belum mahu melangkah...

Nenek kata Akmal demam sebab nak berjalan kot!

Apa pun, semua orang tak sabar menunggu langkah pertama Muhammad Akmal Haziq...

Hari Hujan dan Breakfast Roti Panas

2009-01-04T10:59:00.007+08:00

Sabtu, 3 Januari 2009 - Hujan sepanjang malam tadi. Batu Caves diselimuti kabus. Terima berita dari Kelantan, banjir berulang lagi...

Babah : Pagi ni nak breakfast apa?
Mama : Kalau Babah rajin, dalam kabinet dapur ada tepung roti. Buat la roti macam Mak Teh buat masa kat Kelate ari tu.
Babah : Mak Teh tu professional, tapi tak pe, kita cuba buat...

Dalam kabinet jumpa tepung roti dan mauripan. Buka peti ais, nasib baik ada telur dan majerin.
Tepung 500g. Mauripan 11g. Telur sebiji. Majerin 60g. Air 200ml. Itulah bahan-bahan untuk buat roti seperti yang tertulis di plastik tepung roti. Adun semua sekali dan uli hingga masak. Biarkan 10-15 minit. Bentukkan ikut suka dan biarkan naik sekali ganda... Lepas tu masukkan ke dalam oven 180C dan biarkan selama 10 minit.
Dan inilah rotinya... fresh from oven, kena dengan kopi O panas pada pagi hari yang hujan...

KL - Taiping - Kuala Kangsar - Ipoh - KL

2008-11-23T14:45:00.006+08:00

Hari Sabtu 22 November 2008. Destinasi kami sekelurga ialah Taiping. Tujuannya ialah untuk menghadiri kenduri kahwin kawan Babah. Puan Rosyati Ibrahim dan pasangannya En. Zainal Abidin. Bertolak dari rumah pukul 9 pagi. Isi minyak kereta RM60.00. Berhenti dua kali di sepanjang lebuhraya. Sekali di R&R Rawang. Keluar Tol Ipoh kena bayar RM24.90. Sekali lagi berhenti di R&R Sungai Perak. Keluar Tol Changkat Jering, kena bayar lagi RM6.40. Sampai rumah pengantin lebih kurang pukul 1.00 pm. Elok tengah makan, rombongan pengantin lelaki sampai. Bertolak dari rumah pengantin lebih kurang pukul dua. Menghala ke Kuala Kangsar. Babah kata dia pernah berkayak di Sungai Perak dari Kuala Kangsar ke Kampung Gajah. Pusing-pusing Kuala Kangsar, sempat bergambar di hadapan Masjid Ubudiah Bukit Chandan.

Dari Kuala Kuala Kangsar kami meneruskan perjalanan ke Ipoh. Pusing -pusing sekitar Ipoh mencari stesen Petronas. Tambah minyak RM50.00. Teruskan perjalanan balik KL. Semasa menghampiri Tapah, Pok Nik telefon nak datang rumah. Nak hantar Sony PSP Aiman dan Amir. Babah minta Pok Nik tolong betulkan sebab ada problem sikit. Sampai rumah pukul 6.30 petang. Berkejar menunaikan solah Zuhur dan Asar. Jamak Taakhir!

Malamnya, pukul 10.00 semua dah tidur termasuk Babah. Pok Nik datang pada 23 November bersama dengan Sony PSP...

Akmah Haziq - 45th days

2008-10-09T21:17:00.004+08:00

Today is the 45th days Akmal Haziq came to this world. Now his weighth is around 4.95kg and increasing.

Happy Birthday BABAH !!!

2008-09-16T10:59:00.002+08:00

Today - 16th September is Babah's birthday. Coincidently it is also a Malaysia Day.

Ahlan Wasahlan Ya Ramadhan

2008-09-01T13:17:00.003+08:00

And as people says, in Malaysia there are too many coincidence... this year, 1st Ramadhan 1429 falls on 1st September 2008.

One of the sms received early in the morning, "Hari Kemerdekaan di sambut Riang, Kukuh Perpaduan Teras Kejayaan, Ramadhan Al-MUbarak Kini Menjelang, Giatkan Ibadah Mohonlah Keampunan"

And the other one, "Di awalnya penuh dengan rahmat, pertengahannya adalah pengampunan dan di akhirnya adalah jaminan Allah akan pembebasan dari api neraka"

To all family members and friends, "Selamat Menyambut Ramadhan Al-Mubarak semoga ibadah puasa pada tahun ini adalah lebih baik dari tahun-tahun sebelumnya"

Muhammad Akmal Haziq

2008-08-30T13:27:00.011+08:00

Muhammad Akmal Haziq was born on 26th August 2008 in Kampung Bharu Medical Centre (KBMC). To be exact, 6.49 pm. With the weight of 3.35kg, he is the heaviest compared to the others.

The above photos were taken by using Mak Uda's Samsung L100 (Baru beli!)

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Norlida Khairon, all the nurses and 'bidan' of KBMC for their assistance.

Thank you also to family and friends who sent the congratulatoty smses. Some of family members and friends suggested that we name the baby, Anwar... as a coincidence that the day he was born is in the eve of the victory of Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim in the Permatang Pauh by-election.

Alhamdulillah! Home Sweet Home

2008-05-31T23:28:00.004+08:00

Kami bertolak dari rumah Tok Ma pukul 12.30 tengah hari. Biasalah Babah, kata nak bertolak awal pagi. Tiba di Gua Musang pukul 4.00 petang. Berehat sekejap di Masjid Gua Musang sebelum memulakan perjalanan ke Kuala Lumpur. Lebih kurang pukul 6.30 petang kami singgah di Hentian Rehat Benta. Makan bekalan nasi berlauk yang disediakan oleh Tok Ma dan Mak Teh. Sesudah itu kami meneruskan perjalanan semula dan selamat sampai di rumah lebih kurang pukul 10.00 malam. Rekod baru tercipta bila kami semua tak tidur sepanjang perjalanan. Alhamdulillah! Home sweet home.

Cuti-cuti Malaysia 1

2008-05-30T22:11:00.003+08:00

Orang Malaysia memang best. Cuti je sekolah, mesti sibuk buat kenduri kahwin. Jadual kenduri sempena cuti sekolah....

1. Sepupu Babah di Paka - Majlis Kenduri Kahwin, Sabtu 24hb Mei 2008 (pihak perempuan) dan 31hb Mei 2008 (pihak lelaki di Subang Jaya)

2. Sedara Tok Ayah di Kuala Besut - Majlis Kenduri Kahwin, Ahad 25hb Mei 2008 (pihak perempuan) dan 31hb Mei 2008 (pihak lelaki di KL)

3. Majlis akad nikah sepupu Babah - 29hb Mei 2008 di Jelawat, Bachok. Kenduri belah pihak lelaki 2hb June 2008.

Hari Sabtu 24hb Mei 2008, pagi-pagi lagi kami sudah bertolak dari rumah menghala ke Paka, Terenggganu. Nasib baik jalan tidak sesibuk biasa dan cuaca pula memang sesuai untuk satu perjalan jauh. Syukur Alhamdulillah. Kami selamat sampai ke tempat kenduri pada pukul 12.00 tengah hari. Majlis baru saja bermula. Lebih kurang pukul tiga petang kami memulakan pula perjalanan dari Paka ke Pengkalan Chepa. Berlaku kesesakan teruk di Marang kerana kerja-kerja menaik taraf jalan. Sampai ke rumah Tok Ma lebih kurang pukul 9.00 malam. Malamnya, kami semua tidur dengan nyenyak sekali kerana keletihan setelah satu perjalan yang panjang. Dari Gombak - Kerteh - Paka - Kuala Trengganu - Pengkalan Chepa. Apa pun, ia hanyalah separuh dari perjalanan sempena dengan cuti-cuti Malaysia kali ini. Esok, Sabtu 31hb Mei 2008, insyaAllah, kami akan memulakan sebahagian lagi perjalanan ini untuk balik ke Gombak. Kami akan melalui jalan lain iaitu Pengkalan Chepa - Kuala Krai - Gua Musang - Kuala Lipis - Raub - Bentong - Gombak. Jarak perjalanan adalah lebih dekat berbanding melalui jalan Pengkalan Chepa - Kuala Trengganu - Gombak. Nampaknya, sempena dengan kenaikan harga minyak yang akan diumumkan oleh Kerajaan BN tidak lama lagi, kami mungkin terpaksa beralih kepada AirAsia atau MAS Firefly jika sesekali ingin balik ke Pengkalan Chepa!!! Itupun terpaksa tengok budget Babah dan Mama memandangkan kami bakal mendapat seorang lagi ahli keluarga baru...

Hari ini saya balik kampung. Kampung saya di Kelantan. Saya berjumpa dengan Nenek dan Atuk saya di Kelantan. Nenek saya menjual nasi lemak, nasi kerabu dan nasi berlauk serta kuih muih. Atuk saya pula membawa saya ke pasar. Pakcik saya membawa saya ronda-ronda menaiki motor. Saya berasa sangat gambira di kampung saya.

Happy Birthday Mohd Irfan Najmi

2008-04-13T20:49:00.003+08:00

Semalam kami semua pergi ke rumah Atuk dan Nenek. Semua orang ada di sana kecuali keluarga Pak Ngah. Pak Ngah berada di Port Dicksons kerana ada 'family day'. Sempena dengan birthday Irfan yang ke-2, Nenek dan Auntie Inn masak mee kari dan soto. Babah Irfan beli sate. Mama Irfan beli kek. Kami sekeluarga hadiahkan Irfan sebuah basikal kecil. Kebetulan pula, Atuk dan Nenek pun hadiahkan sebuah basikal kecil juga. Sekarang Irfan mempunyai dua buah basikal.... Sebenranya ini bukan kali pertama hadiah yang kami beli sama dengan hadiah yang Atuk beli. Dulu masa birthday Hakimi pun sama. Kami beli helikopter mainan. Bila sampai rumah Hakimi, tengok-tengok hadiah Atuk pun helikopter mainan juga!

Selamat Hari Lahir - Nur Amira Aishah

2008-03-09T17:40:00.003+08:00

Semalam - 8 March 2008 adalah hari ulangtahun kelahiran Nur Amira Aishah. Sekarang dia dah tiga tahun. Kebetulan pula semalam juga adalah hari Pilihanraya Umum ke12 diadakan. Memandangkan Babah agak 'busy' dengan aktiviti pilihanrayanya, kami cuma beli kek untuk Aishah. Makan-makan akan diadakan kemudian.

Selamat Hari Lahir Mama!

2008-03-06T00:28:00.005+08:00

Selamat Hari Lahir Mama !
Semalam - 5 Mac 2008 adalah hari ulangtahun Mama yang ke berapa ye?
Babah telah belanja semua orang makan di kedai tomyam kegemaran Abe dan Meme - Sri Niara Tomyam. Kalau makan di sini, kegemaran Babah ialah Lin Chi Kang. Kegemaran Meme pula ialah Tomyam Campur. Apa pula kegemaran Abe? Boleh dikatakan semuanya Abe suka.

Sup ekor. Hanya Babah dan Abe yang makan. Orang lain tengok je!

Tomyam Campur kegemaran Meme. Sedap dan pedas. Jadi kepada sesiapa yang tak tahan pedas boleh maklumkan kepada tukang ambil order suruh kurangkan cili.

Kailan ikan masin. Mama suka makan ni. Kalau pergi kedai tomyam, salah satu menu yang mesti di pesan.

Lin Chi Kang. Nampak je banyak. Kalau Babah dapat makan separuh dah kira baik. Biasanya adalah yang nak cuba rasa. Mula-mula nak rasa tapi tinggal separuh je...

Sebenarnya banyak lagi lauk yang kami makan semalam. Cuma tak sempat nak ambil gambar.

Entah kenapa bila nak sambut hari lahir mesti ada kek. Tidak kira apa jenis dan jenama kek. Syarat sah nak sambut ulangtahun kelahiran, kek mesti ada. Kek di atas adalah sumbangan rakan-rakan sekerja Mama untuk kami semua. Best!

Demam... Demam... dan Demam - Musim agaknya!

2008-02-18T12:10:00.005+08:00

Agaknya sekarang ni musim demam. Masa pergi klinik untuk dapatkan ubat Mama, ramainya orang demam. Bagi keluarga kami, ianya bermula dengan Mama. Mama demam, batuk-batuk dan selesema. Bermula dari sehari sebelum Chinese New Year. Kesian Mama. Teruk dia kena kali ni. Hampir seminggu juga. Lepas tu Kakak pula yang kena. Demam dan batuk juga. Walaupun batuk-batuk, Kakak masih nak pergi tadika. Nasib baik demam dan batuk Kakak tak lama. Lepas Kakak dah baik, Aishah pula yang demam. Aishah tak batuk tetapi selesema. Semalam Babah dan Mama pula tak sihat. Dua-duanya keracunan makanan (food poisoning). Alhamdulillah Abe, Meme, Kakak dan Aishah tak kena. Kalau tak rumah kami boleh dipanggil rumah sakit!!! Mama taklah teruk sangat kalau nak bandingkan dengan Babah. Masa dekat klinik, doktor explained macamana keracunan cuma kena pada orang-orang tertentu sahaja walaupun makan dari bekas yang sama. Rupa-rupanya, walaupun satu bekas, tak semua tempat dijangkiti kuman semasa makanan itu diambil. Contohnya, mungkin bahagian tengah sahaja atau bahagian tepi sahaja yang dijangkiti kuman. Makanan itu akan dijangkiti kuman sepenuhnya dalam masa tertentu. Mungkin nasib Babah dan Mama kurang baik, terambil bahagian yang telah terdedah kepada kuman!

Pagi tadi ingat semua dah ok. Rupa-rupanya tidak. Abe pulak yang demam. Pagi-pagi hari Babah dan Mama paksa Abe makan ubat demam. Nampaknya hari ni Abe terpaksa cuti satu hari!

Sekarang cuma tinggal sorang saja lagi... Ni kena jaga-jaga ni. Hero seorang ni memang susah nak makan ubat...

Now Kakak becomes Amani...

2008-01-27T00:07:00.000+08:00

One day, she went home and told everybody that since her teachers at tadika call her Amani, we are no longer allowed to call her Kakak. Everybody must call her Amani. Ok Kakak... opss.. Amani, as you wish!

Abe - Standard Two

2008-01-05T22:46:00.001+08:00

My name is Muhammad Aiman Hafiz. My family and some of my friends call me Abe. My teacher and some of my friends call me Hafiz. This year I am in Standard Two. Although in the same school with Meme, the sessions are different. I go to Sekolah Agama in the morning and Sekolah Kebangsaan in the afternoon. Contrary to Meme, he will attend the Sekolah Kebangsaan in the morning and later go to Sekolah Agama in the afternoon. So for this year, except for weekends and public holiday, I will see Meme only before 7.00 am and after 6.30 pm.

First Time - Kakak

2008-01-05T22:31:00.000+08:00

3rd January 2008 - My name is Nur Iman Amani. I am 5 years old. Today I will enroll to kindergarten. Together with me in this photo are my brothers... Abe and Meme.

Ends of day one. I learned a lot of things today. My teachers call me Amani. Although I met a new friends today, I feel pity to Baby Shashah because she have to play alone.

First Time - Meme

2008-01-05T22:11:00.000+08:00

3rd January 2008 - My name is Muhammad Amir Hakim. This year I am 7 years old. Today I will enter Standard One. Since today is my first day to school, Babah and Mama took leave to be with me...

I want to be the first person to reach the school.

My routine for the year 2008. I have to attend two school sessions. Sekolah Kebangsaan is in the morning whilst Sekolah Agama is slotted for the afternoon. It means that I will not see Abe for the whole day.

Happy New Year 2008

2008-01-05T21:52:00.000+08:00

We would like to take this opportunity to wish all family members and friends a Happy New Year 2008.

Thank you very much to those who sent a New Year wishes via SMS and e-mail.

And for our family, congratulation to Pak Andak who ends year 2007 with an engagement to our future Mak Andak...

A Visit To The National Museum

2007-12-01T22:26:00.000+08:00

Yesterday Abe and Meme had decided to go patriotic. They asked Babah and Mama to bring them to the National Museum. Today, both of them woke up very early although Babah and Mama agreed to go there by 10.30am. When we reached the museum by 11.00 am, we saw a lot of Japanese tourists were already there, and of course with their cameras. We were a bit frustrated when we were informed that part of the museum was under renovation. Why the renovation is done during the school holidays? Should it be completed earlier, plenty of events can be organised by now. Well, it is not our problem to think of that anyway...

Open House 10 November 2007

2007-11-18T01:40:00.000+08:00

This year we invited families and friends to our open house gathering on 10 November 2007 which was coincidently the last day of Syawal 1428 Hijrah (29 Syawal 1428 Hijrah). Previously, Babah and Mama cook all the 'lauk-pauk'. However, this time Nenek cook her special recipe nasi beriani and Auntie Inn prepared spicy fried chicken as well as almond chocolate cake. Babah's friend, Pn. Zarina (Inn's Cookies and Bakery - The best Almond London ever!!!) sponsored a cholcolate cake. This time, we were very lucky to have Mak Tam, Mak Teh and Mak Uda to assist us. Mak Tam was on leave. Mak Teh who is working in Kota Bharu, had a meeting a day before in Putrajaya. Mak Uda had an interview session on 7th November 2007.

Once everything was ready by 12 noon, it rained. At the same time Babah was informed by his friends that a few roads heading to the city centre were closed by the police. It delayed a few friends and families because they were trapped in the jam for at least one to two hours...

Everything was fine from the start till the end (in fact we closed our gate at 12.00 midnight). We would like to take this oppurtunity to thanks all the families and friends who dares to brave the 'jam road' to attend our open house. For those who are unable to show up due to whatever reasons, you will still be invited to our open house in next two years. So, please keep us updated of any changes in your e-mail address and mobile phone number....

p/s : Due to some technical problems, photo was not taken during the open house...

Babah and The Art of "Bertukang" (Part 2)

2007-11-08T17:41:00.000+08:00

Finally, Babah manged to paint his pegola/bangsal/pondok with Colourland Mahogany Code 1116 (For Metal and Wood). Althought it looks simple, Babah used at least two tins of 1 liter each. (According to Mr Chung Fatt - Tauke Hardware Shop, the paint comes in 1 liter and 5 liter!!!) So, no choice. Have to buy 2 tins instead... Only a few flower pots are hanging. The rest are waiting for Babah to prepare the hangers...

Two of the orchid species that we have. For more info and beautiful pictures of orchid flowers, please drop by at <Yong and Kisah Orkidnya....>

Le Tour De Sekeliling Rumah

2007-11-06T23:46:00.000+08:00

A lot of buah jambu air. Nice to see but we never had a chance to eat. Why? Because of two reasons. It will gugur sebelum tiba masanya... and normally for the buah yang masak, ada ulat. Kalau ikut hati ingat nak tebang je, ganti dengan pokok mangga, boleh kut.

The one and only pineapple that manages to survive. Actually we planted three to four pineapples, however due to thousand and one reasons, the above is the toughest and the rest is history.

When asked, Babah said that he really does not know what is the name of this flower. However, if you look at it with full concentration, you can see the uniqueness of this beautiful flower.

According to the sources, these yellow flowers are from the same family of the red one above. How they are linked together is out of my knowledge. Maybe Babah should create another blog with the title... "Pokok-pokok Di Halaman Rumah"...

Babah And The Art Of "Bertukang"

2007-10-30T00:15:00.000+08:00

Believe it or not. Last Saturday, Babah said that he wanted to built a 'pegola' to hang some of the flower pots. With the moral support given by all of us, Babah managed to complete his task. One thing that we are not very sure is, can we call it 'pegola'. Well, according to Babah, the above object does not have a specific name. So we can call it 'pegola', bangsal or pondok. It main purpose is to hang the 'pasu bunga'.

The above pictures were taken while Babah is waiting for the white paint to be dried.

However, due to heavy rain, Babah has to postpone the second phase of painting the above 'pegola'/bangsal/pondok...

Raya and The Tradition of Balik Kampung

2007-10-29T23:40:00.000+08:00

Well, first of all, we hope that it is still not too late to wish everybody Selamat Hari Raya. This year, first day raya we celebrated with Atuk and Nenek. Only on the second day of raya we went back to Kelantan to celebrate with Tok Ayah and Tok Ma. We took first flight from LCCT to KB (Flight AK6320 departed from KUL at 7.20am and arrived in KBR at 8.15am) .

Baby Shashah sekali tak duduk diam dalam flight AirAsia from KL to KB.

Kakak dan Baby Shashah dalam kapal terbang. Please fasten your seatbelt!!!

Two heroes are seriously discussing the menu! Unlike MAS, Airasia sells food, drinks and souvenirs.

What! No. You are not allowed to buy everything in the brochure...

Abe 7 and Meme 6...

2007-05-20T02:13:00.000+08:00

We celebrated Abe and Meme's birthday three days earlier because 22nd May 2007 is Tuesday. Coincidently, the week of 21-25 May 2007 is examination week for Abe. So, Babah and Mama decided to bring forward the birthday bash...

Swiss Garden Resorts & Spa, Kuantan - 31 March - 1 April 2007

2007-04-04T23:38:00.000+08:00

Last Saturday, our family headed east coast in the occasion of Babah’s family day cum annual dinner. Although the buses were provided for the staff and family members, Babah decided to go to Kuantan by car. According to Babah, it is much easier for us. We can have plenty of time along the way. There's no need to rush. The important thing is we can stop anywhere we want. Especially when Abe and Meme need to empty their ‘tanks’ during the long journey or when we saw any keropok lekor or satar along the way....
Well, we started our journey at around 10.30 am ( despite Mama's plan to start at 9 am ). Using East Coast Expressway from Karak to Kuantan, it took us two and half hours and was charged RM19.90 for the toll. Earlier we paid RM8.00 being toll charges from Gombak to Bentong.
We checked in at the hotel around 3.00 pm after had a ‘nasi campur’ at the stall not far away from the hotel. The hotel’s room is spacious, facing the sea and swimming pool and nicely decorated with two beds and a cot for our baby Shasha . We spent most of our time in the swimming pool until our fingers are shivering and our lips are bluish .......We have met a few new friends as well such as Adam, Alia, Ikmal and some more who are too-busy-playing than introduced themselves, so everybody call each other as kawan only .....
During the annual dinner, Babah was shorlisted to be one of the 5 finalist of the grand prize. Although he missed the chance to get 32" LCD TV ( Try next year, Babah!!!!) , Babah managed to get brand new Sony Ericsson handphone (W880i).
Kira ok lah. Expenses to Kuantan was around RM200.00 and in return we got handphone that worth RM1,700.00. Since Babah already have one Sony Ericsson, anybody interested to buy please name the price. Of course, Babah is generous enough to give discount…

Picnic at HuluYam

2007-02-19T22:06:00.000+08:00

Today is second day of Chinese New Year. We 'celebrated' it by going to HUlu Yam for a picnic. We went to The Woods Resort, HUlu Yam. Our journey started at 11.00am. The resort is situated 20 kilometers from Batu Caves. To go there, we must pass through Batu Dam which has a lovely scenery. However, beware !!! The road is windy and sometime when it rains, the road becomes slippery. The same road can be used as an alternative road to Genting Highlands. To enter the resort, we must pay the entrance fee of RM2.00 per person and free of charge for the kids.

When we reached there, Abe and Meme helped Babah to set up the tent. After that Abe, Meme, Kakak and Shashah jumped into the river together with Chu. Who is Chu? She is Mama's younger sister who is now in standard four. Chu is Abe and Meme's 'partner in crime' especially when the things is related to Atuk and Nenek! Everybody was screaming because the water was so cold. In fact, Shashah was shivering after a few moments 'berendam' in the water but refuse to come out. Well, as for Chu, Abe, Meme and Kakak, the cold water doesn't stop them from enjoying themselves. At least two hours they all 'berendam' before they took a break !!!

Ramainya Orang Kat Rumah Kita...

2007-02-12T13:15:00.000+08:00

Sabtu, 10 Februari 2007 - Meme masih lagi demam. Sebelah paginya Babah dan Mama bawa Meme ke Pusat PerubatanKampung Bharu. Dr Khairul 'off duty'. Pakar kanak-kanak yang ada cuma Dr Noor Aziah sahaja. Lama juga kami tunggu di situ. Pukul 11.00 pagi baru siap semuanya. Sebenarnya Meme dah seminggu demam. Kejap ok kejap demam balik.

Pagi sebelum pergi ke hospital, Mak Chik ada called Babah. Katanya nak datang rumah selepas pergi lihat Pameran Tamadun Islam di KLCC. Lebih kurang pukul 2.30 Babah pergi ambil Mak Chik dan dua orang kawan-kawannya di Terminal Putra, Gombak. Bila sampai rumah, tak lama lepas tu Pok Nik pun tiba dari UIA. Pukul 6 petang, Mak Tam sampai di Greenwood dengan menaiki bas ekspress dari Kota Bharu. Mak Tam balik bercuti seminggu. Tolong Tok Ma jaga Mok Wo sebab Mok Wo kena stroke. Pak Nik yang pergi ambil Mak Tam di Greenwood. Kemudian, dekat Maghrib, Pak Andak pun sampai. Pak Andak sekarang ni kerja di Bandar Sunway. Dulu kerja di Batu Pahat. Masa Johor banjir teruk, Pak Andak terperangkap di Batu Pahat. Kerja macam Pak Andak ni, tak tetap di satu-satu tempat. Nanti lagi dua bulan, kena kerja di Kemaman pula...

Hari ni kita makan nasi ayam... Mama masak special untuk semua tetamu yang datang... Best!!!

Thank you very much Mama!!!

Doa Untuk Ibu Bapa...

2007-02-12T13:09:00.000+08:00

Doa ini sebenarnya dari e-mail yang diforwardkan oleh seorang kawan Babah...

Ya Allah,
Rendahkanlah suaraku bagi mereka
Perindahlah ucapanku di depan mereka
Lunakkanlah watakku terhadap mereka dan
Lembutkan hatiku untuk mereka
Ya Allah,
Berilah mereka balasan yang sebaik-baiknya, atas didikan mereka padaku
dan Pahala yang besar atas kesayangan yang mereka limpahkan padaku,
peliharalah mereka sebagaimana mereka memeliharaku.
Ya Allah,
Apa saja gangguan yang telah mereka rasakan
atau kesusahan yang mereka deritakan kerana aku,
atau hilangnya sesuatu hak mereka kerana perbuatanku,
jadikanlah itu semua penyebab hilangnya dosa-dosa mereka
dan bertambahnya pahala kebaikan mereka
dengan perkenan-Mu ya Allah,
hanya Engkaulah yang berhak membalas kejahatan dengan kebaikan berlipat ganda.
Ya Allah,
Bila magfirah-Mu telah mencapai mereka sebelumku,
Izinkanlah mereka memberi syafa'at untukku.
Tetapi jika sebaliknya,
maka izinkanlah aku memberi syafa'at untuk mereka,
sehingga kami semua berkumpul bersama dengan santunan-Mu
di tempat kediaman yang dinaungi kemulian-Mu, ampunan-Mu serta rahmat-Mu
Sesungguhnya Engkaulah yang memiliki Kurnia Maha Agung,
serta anugerah yang tak berakhir dan
Engkaulah yang Maha Pengasih di antara semua pengasih.
Amin Ya Rabbul Alamin..

Nota :
Marilah kita kenangkan dosa kita kepada orang tua kita. Siapa tahu hidup kita dirundung nestapa kerana kedurhakaan kita. Kerana kita menghisap darahnya, tenaganya, airmatanya, keringatnya.
Istighfarlah,Istighfarlah
Barangsiapa yang matanya pernah sinis melihat orang tuanya. Atau kata-katanya sering mengguris hatinya, atau yang jarang memperdulikan dan mendoakannya.
Percayalah bahawa anak yang derhaka siksanya didahulukan didunia ini

Abe Buat Semua Orang Panik !!!

2007-01-11T23:16:00.000+08:00

Cerita ni berlaku semalam, 10 Januari 2007 Hari Rabu....
Lebih kurang pukul 6.00 petang Mama telefon Babah kat opis. Mama beritahu Abe tak ada di sekolah. Atuk yang sepatutnya mengambil Abe tidak menjumpai Abe di sekolah. Walaupun Atuk mencari di sekitar sekolah, Abe langsung tidak kelihatan. Kemudian Atuk balik rumah. Seterusnya Nenek telefon Mama. Lepas tu Mama telefon Babah. Babah bergegas naik LRT nak ke opis Mama, sebab Mama dah bersedia nak balik (masa ni Mama punya perasaan tak leh nak cakap la !). On the way back, Nenek telefon Mama. Abe dah nak sampai rumah. Uncle Pad jumpa Abe tengah berjalan kaki. Dah dekat sangat nak sampai rumah. Abe... Abe... Lain kali jangan buat macam ni lagi. Semua orang panik !!!

Tadika Meme Pun Bermula Hari Ini...

2007-01-04T23:43:00.000+08:00

Hari ini 4 Januari 2007, bermulalah hari persekolahan Meme di tadika untuk tahun yang ke dua. Memandangkan tadikanya bermula pukul 12.00 tengah hari hingga 4.00 petang, maka Meme terpaksalah pergi dan balik dengan menaiki bas sekolah.

Abe Dengan Rasminya Masuk Darjah Satu - Part 2

2007-01-04T23:41:00.000+08:00

Ni ada gambar-gambar Abe masa nak pergi sekolah dan semasa di sekolah....

Abe Dengan Rasminya Masuk Darjah Satu

2007-01-03T23:12:00.000+08:00

3 Januari 2007, pagi-pagi lagi Abe dah bersiap sedia dengan baju melayu putih dan bersamping hijau. Pagi ini Abe kena pergi sekolah agama dulu. Petang nanti baru pergi sekolah kebangsaan. Sekolah agama bermula dari 7.30 hingga 10.30 pagi. Sekolah kebangsaan pula bermula dari pukul 1 - 6.30 petang. Hari ni Abe ke sekolah agama dan sekolah kebangsaan dengan menaiki bas sekolah. Letih juga sebab habis sekolah agama pukul 10.30 pagi, naik bas dan sampai rumah lebih kurang pukul 11.00 pagi. Lepas tu dah kena bersiap untuk ke sekolah kebangsaan pula. Bas akan datang balik ambil Abe pukul 12.00 tengah hari. Bila Abe dah naik bas, Babah dan Mama pun naik kereta dan tunggu Abe dekat sekolah. Seronok juga tengok macam-macam gelagat anak-anak. Tak sangka, masih ada anak yang menangis bila emak atau ayah hilang dari pandangan. Dan paling tak sangka, harga makanan di kantin mahal. Memang mahal !!! Empat biji fishball yang kecik-kecik tu harganya seringgit. Kalau di pasar malam, fishball lagi besar dari tu tiga seringgit. Lagi satu, cucur udang kecik aje, dua seringgit. Kalau kat pasar malam tiga seringgit. Tu pun besar lagi. Nampaknya untung besar tauke kantin tu.... Ni nak kena komplen kat PIBG nampaknya. Lagi satu yang memang tak sangka betul, ni betul-betul tak sangka. Masa anak-anak sibuk berebut nak beli kuih masa rehat pukul 3 petang, ramai emak dan emak dan emak budak yang sibuk tengok telenovela Indonesia - Bawang Putih Bawang Merah di kantin yang sama.....

Semua orang bangun awal sebab nak bagi sokongan moral kepada Abe ...

Kat atas tu logo sekolah agama Abe dan Abe semasa dalam kelas...

Lupa pulak nak tulis, hari ini sebenarnya bukan Abe je yang jadi anak murid, Babah pun sama. Tadi masa Babah sampai rumah pukul 9.30 malam lepas habis kelas, Abe dah lama tidur. Kesian Abe, letih agaknya...

Kami Pegi Zoo

2006-12-26T15:38:00.000+08:00

Lama juga kami tak kemaskini apa yang berlaku di sini. Babah sibuk. Mama pun sibuk juga. Anyway, hari tu, 22 November 2006 kami semua pergi Zoo Negara. Tengok macam-macam binatang di situ. Kebetulan pula masa kami sampai ada pertunjukan Burung Kakak Tua, Singa Laut dan Orang Utan. Memang best. Mula-mula cuaca terang benderang. Elok je kami turun dari bukit tempat Ape Centre tu, hujan gerimis pun turun. Tidak lama selepas itu, hujan pun mulai lebat...

Raya dan Jalan jem...

2006-11-02T11:36:00.000+08:00

Masa bertolak dari rumah di Batu Caves pagi Sabtu 21 October ingat jalan tak jem. Tengok-tengok, start dari tol Gombak dah kena beratur panjang. Lepas tol Bentong, kena jalan terus. Polis tak benarkan kami masuk bandar Bentong. Kena guna jalan Felda Mempaga/Sertik keluar sebelah Sekolah Sains Sultan Ahmad Shah di Raub. (Sekolah Mama Nurin dulu). Jauh juga. Kereta banyak pulak tu. Kalau ikut surat khabar, sempena dengan Aidil Fitri tahun ni, berlaku pertambahan sebanyak satu juta kereta di Kelate. Nasib baik kawan Babah, Che We tak balik sebab beraya kat Sungai Petani. Kalau tak tambah lagi satu kereta. Kami sampai Masjid Gua Musang pukul 6 petang !!! (Biasanya kalau keluar rumah lebih kurang pukul 9 pagi, sampai Gua Musang pukul 1 petang). On the way, Babah berhenti kat satu kedai makan. Tapau nasi goreng dan air tin untuk buat buka puasa. Sampai rumah Tok Ayah pukul 11 malam. Nasib baik Shashah tak nangis. Abe, Meme dan Kakak dah biasa sangat jalan jauh ni.

30 Ramadhan/23 Oktober, hari terakhir berpuasa. Seronoknya sebab semua adik beradik Babah, 12 orang semuanya balik beraya rumah Tok Ayah. Babah lagi lah seronok sebab Abe berjaya berpuasa selama 30 hari !!!. Jadi sebelum buka puasa semua orang salam dengan Abe dan ucap tahniah. Lepas tarawikh Babah ada reunion geng-geng sekolah dulu-dulu.

1 Syawal/24 Oktober, Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri. Kami menyambut raya di Pengkalan Chepa dalam keadaan hujan gerimis. Alhamdulillah. Tahun ni giliran Pok Nik yang baca khutbah raya.

3 Syawal, Meme demam. Panas jugak lah badan dia. Nasib baik ada klinik yang buka. (Most of the clinics here will only resume operations on Saturday, 28 October). Dan seperti biasa, Mama dan Babah kena paksa Meme makan ubat!!!

4 Syawal, Alhamdulillah ! Meme dah sihat sikit. Cuma kena minum air banyak-banyak.

Sabtu, 5 Syawal kami semua berangkat balik ke Batu Caves lebih kurang pukul 12 tengah hari. Mak Chik ikut sama. Jalan jem dari Kota Bharu ke Kuala Krai. Agaknya semua orang bertolak balik KL hari ni. Sampai Batu Caves pukul 11 malam.

Ahad, 6 Syawal pagi-pagi lagi kami dah bertolak ke Nilai. Hantar Mak Chik balik ke KUIM. Babah takut kalau lambat nanti jalan jem. Balik dari KUIM memang jem sikit dekat tol Sungai Besi. Nasib baik ada Touch'n'Go.

Isnin 7 Syawal, Arrgh... kenapa kena pergi keje pulak hari ni. Kan best kalau dapat sambung cuti - Babah.

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri

2006-10-19T12:51:00.000+08:00

Kami mengambil kesempatan ini untuk mengucapkan Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri kepada semua kaum keluarga, sahabat handai, rakan taulan di mana jua anda berada. Kemaafan dipinta atas segala salah dan silap yang disengajakan atau tidak.
Tahun ni kami semua akan berhari raya di kampung Babah di Kelate. Babah kata balik kampung pada hari Sabtu 21 Oktober hingga 28 Oktober 2006.
Sekali lagi pada semua, Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri Maaf Dzahir dan Batin.

Gambar kat atas ni Babah ambil dari blog Pok Nik tanpa kebenaran beliau... Jadi kalau Pok Nik tengok ni, sila berikan kebenaran.

Ramadhan Datang Lagi...

2006-09-27T16:50:00.000+08:00

Alhamdulillah...
Setelah setahun berlalu, kini Ramadhan datang lagi. Dan kesempatan yang diberikan oleh Allah untuk kita pada kali ini seharusnya digunakan dengan sebaik-baiknya. Dan jika dikehendaki oleh Allah, insyaAllah kita akan menemui Ramadhan yang penuh berkat kali ini.
Ramadhan, bulan yang paling mulia di mana hari-harinya semua malaikat memanjatkan doa kepada Allah, di mana tiada kegiatan baik yang tidak diberikan ganjaran yang sewajarnya oleh Allah.

"MAKA NIKMAT TUHANMU YANG MANAKAH YANG ENGKAU DUSTAKAN..."

Bila teringat maksud ayat di atas, teringat kelemahan diri akan segala kesilapan yang dilakukan sengaja atau tidak sengaja.

Semoga Ramadhan kali ini adalah Ramadhan yang terbaik. Ramadhan kali ini akan membawa segala kebaikan dan kebahagiaan.

"MARHABAN YA RAMADHAN"

Semoga Allah mengampuni semua dosa-dosa kita dan melimpahkan rahmatNya kepada kita semua. Amin .....

Kepada semua, sama-samalah kita menunaikan solat sunat tarawikh. Tak payah lah nak gaduh-gaduh nak buat lapan rakaat atau dua puluh. Janji kita buat. Jangan jadi macam ada satu cerita.... Macam ni, Imam nak buat lapan rakaat. BIlal nak buat 20 rakaat. Lepas tu Bilal dan Imam siap gaduh lagi tu... Bilal kata Imam dapat elaun lebih pun malas... Imam kata Bilal nak menunjuk-nunjuk. Jadi dua-dua ni tanya Tok Siak. Senang cerita kata Tok Siak, tak payah buat langsung..... heh...heh...heh...

Happy Birthday Babah !!!

2006-09-17T01:58:00.000+08:00

"Ari ni birthday Babah yang ke berapa Mama", asked Abe and Meme
"Cuba kira, Babah lahir tahun 1972"
"Aaa biar Mir kira dulu..."
"Mana beg sekolah Bang?"
"Nak buat apa dengan beg sekolah"
"Ala... Bang nak ambil pensil dan kertas, nak buat macam yang cikgu ajar kat sekolah tu."
"Ada kat bawah..."
After a few moments, Abe shouted. "I got the answer!, 34"
"Correct!"
Suddenly both of them jumped and landed on Babah's stomach. They hugged Babah and wished him happy birthday. Then followed by Kakak. Shashah kecik lagi. Tak paham pun what is going on.
"Bang nak nyanyi satu lagu untuk Babah, kat sekolah selalu nyanyi lagu ni kalau ada kawan-kawan buat birthday"
"Mir pun nak nyanyi sama"

"Allah selamatkan kamu, Allah selamatkan kamu, Allah selamatkan Babah, Allah selamatkan Babah"

Since Babah tak suka makan kek except for kek pisang, there was no cake at all. Tak pe lah. Actually our planned was to eat western food. Steak or chicken chop or apa yang sewaktu dengannya. Ni kira one day off untuk Babah. Today tak payah nak pantang. (Kan ari tu Babah masuk hospital). Masa nak pergi makan malam tadi Babah tukar plan pulak. No western food. Let's eat tom yam!!!
"Why?"
"Two reasons."
1. Anti USA.
2. Anti cholesterol.
Boleh ke macam ni - Mama

Mama gets back to school...

2006-09-15T19:09:00.000+08:00

On 10 September 2006, we spent our day from 9am to 4pm at Kelab Century Paradise. We attended Mama’s reunion for SPM 1990 MRSM Terendak. Although it was the fourth time for most of them, it is only the first for Mama. Since most of the ‘pupils’ were expanding in size compared to 15 years ago, Mama have to recall some of them in order to remember their name. Well, kat sekolah dulu mana ada pakai nama betul. Either you like it or not, you will be called by nickname. Later on the whole school will call you with that name. The next thing is you have to learn to accept the name that was given to you by your group or others. Since a lot of stories that need to be shared, we were left behind. It’s ok. Take your time Mama. After 15 years, of course you have a lot of thing to talk about.
From our observation, majority of them were married with three kids. The only person that day with four kids was Mama. Hopefully, some of them will catch up soon.
There are few games were organised on that day especially for the parents and the kids. As usual, the kids were more excited compared to their parents. Ye lah, parents asyik bercakap saja. So, Abe, Meme and Kakak apa lagi. Tak lepaskan peluang. Terus berenang dalam kolam. Shasha masa ni dah tidur.
Abe and Meme participated in all games. However, only Meme managed to the second prize for musical chair. Babah played water polo with all the fathers. He lost to the other team. Ok lah tu. “Participation that counts !!!” said Babah when Abe asked him why they lost.
Before they end the session for the day, there was a lucky draw. Based on our track records, we did not even get closer to top 10 list for the lucky draws except for last year Babah’s annual dinner where we got a PC. And that was the best ever !!! So Babah told Mama don’t be so ambitious. All the prizes are not meant for us. After one by one prizes were given away, only three left with five persons were yet to be called. One of them was Mama. So guess what we got for that day?

A day full of enjoyment for all of us and a lot of memories for Mama to be remembered. About the lucky draw, as usual we added one more number into our record !!!

Kisah Abe dan Meme pergi lawatan

2006-08-24T01:13:00.000+08:00

Babah have to attend a one week course at Maybank Learning Centre, Bangi from 21 August - 25 August 2006. So, tak sempat nak interview Abe and Meme about the trip on 18 August 2006. One thing for sure is they were really enjoyed the trip especially the Wet World. Babah akan update cerita mereka bila dah habis kursus nanti.

Dua gambar di atas adalah sekadar hiasan sahaja. Tiada kaitan dengan lawatan
Abe dan Meme ke Wet World.

Dua hari atau tiga hari ?

2006-08-15T19:16:00.000+08:00

Pagi tadi bila semua orang bangun dari tidur, tiba-tiba Meme kata lagi tiga hari nak pergi rombongan. Abe pula kata lagi dua hari. Just the matter of curiosity how they calculated the days, we first asked Abe.

"Betul lah dua hari, esok satu hari dan Khamis satu hari"

And the answer from Meme...

"Tiga hari la, hari ni satu hari, esok satu hari dan Khamis satu hari"

"Hari ni tak payah kira lah", Abe.

"Kenapa pulak, kan belum pegi sekolah lagi", Meme.

So, based on Amir punya logik, hari ini masih dikira selagi dia belum balik dari sekolah. Boleh ke....

"Nanti bila balik siapa nak ambil. Petang bas dah tak ada."

"Abe dan Meme tunggu kat sekolah. Jangan pegi mana-mana. Tunggu Mama sampai."

"Mama kan balik sama Babah, mesti lambat."

"Hari Jumaat Mama balik awal. Mama bawa kereta. Babah balik naik train. Nanti kita fetch Babah."

"Nanti Mama pesan kat cikgu suruh tunggu Abe dan Meme sampai Mama datang."

"Ok."

Babah gets his medical report

2006-08-07T16:19:00.000+08:00

Babah has received his medical report. Everything is ok except for the cholesterol. The bad cholesterol is so high, 3.7. So, the doctor suggested that Babah starts exercise and control the diet. The next check-up will be in six months time. According to Mama, diet for Babah means strictly no durians !!! (Durian is Babah's favourite but Mama said it smell like gasoline!!!) Rasa-rasanya pendapatan Giant akan menurun kerana Babah dah tak boleh beli durian kat situ...

And for all of us, looks like we all have to change our diet to suit Babah's. No more fries, no more roti canai mamak, no more KFC and McDonalds. Oh no, how are we going to survive???

Well, people at Africa can, so why can't you??? (This is Mama's standard answer)

"Afrika tu kat mana Mama?"Abe.

"Afrika tu jauh sangat-sangat dari Malaysia, ingat tak hari tu kita ada pegi rumah sedara Babah yang akan ke Afrika kerana meyertai Pasukan Bantuan Perubatan PBB"

"Tak!"

p/s:

Seorang saudara Babah, Azaha bin Ismail sekarang ni sedang berkhidmat di Afrika untuk tempoh satu tahun, bersama dengan Pasukan Bantuan Perubatan PBB - Angkatan Tentera Malaysia.

Baby Shashah dan sihat...

2006-08-01T00:31:00.000+08:00

Alhamdulillah, baby Shashah has recovered after two days of taking the antibiotic and flu medicine as well as ubat titik dalam mata... Babah and Mama with the help of the three doctors-to-be have to hold her head, legs and etc... just to make sure she really swallow the medicine and not simply spurt it out. Meme said the antibiotic smells yucks as he cannot stand the smell... It is good if the tauke-tauke ubat ni invent nice-to-eat type of medicine yang rasanya best macam cokelat... (this is Mama's favourite but Babah said it can cause migraine!!!) Nanti senanglah parents nak suruh anak makan ubat. Especially kalau ada anak-anak macam Meme dan Shashah yang takut nak makan ubat.

On Saturday, we went to see Mak Chik, ni babah punye adik yang ke 8 !!! She is studying in KUIM, Nilai N9. We went there via Elite Highway and had to pay toll of RM8.90. We had our lunch with Mak Chik at a stall nearby... where the kids ordered their facourite drink, Milo ais.

Kami tak lama kat KUIM sebab we need to hurry back to ensure we reach home before Sinchan started at 6.30pm. So Babah took the PLUS Highway and this time, the toll was only RM4.70. Jadi lain kali kalau nak pergi Nilai, PD or heading south, better use PLUS highway....

Actually we want to drop by at Bangi on the way back to visit Uncle Wan Idrose's new house. So we can watch Sinchan there. However, when Babah sms, he replied that he was attending course at PD. Well, may be some other days we will drop by and Babah will make sure that he serves satay Kajang for us.

"Bang suka satay ayam" - Abe

"Mir pun sama" - Meme

"Kak shuke.... aaa... aaa macam Abe" - Kakak

So Uncle Wan, you better be prepared !!!

Baby Shashah sakit mata....

2006-07-25T17:58:00.000+08:00

Yesterday, on the way back from the office, Babah and Mama dropped at Warta Supermarket to buy track bottom for Abe and Meme as we thought sports day will be held somewhere next month.

However, when we reached home, the boys already slept. And we noticed a letter from the kindergarten to inform there is no sport carnival this year !!! No reason was given, so we assumed it must be due to timing problem, with the raining season nowadays and as puasa is coming. Ya Allah... how time flies...... Cepatnya masa berlalu.....

Luckily, as a consolation to the children, the kindergarten will be organising a day trip to Zoo Negara dan Wet World, Shah Alam on 18 August 2006. Food will be provided and the children are expected to bring their swimming clothes for the water activities....... We cannot imagine how the teachers going to control these 5 & 6 years old children, it will definitely be a challenging task!!! Especially nak control Abe and Meme...

Actually, we plan to go to Zoo Negara during to next school holiday when Baby Shashah can walk faster so that Mama & Babah do not have to carry her, but it seems that Abe and Meme will be going there first. Nevermind, they can act as 'tourist guide' to us for the next visit.

After dinner, Mama noticed something was wrong with Shashah's eye. It looks red and itchy. So we brought her to the nearby clinic and the doctor confirmed that it was due to some infection...Kesian Shashah... and Kakak cannot sleep with her for the next few days.... Happy Recovering to Baby Shashah!!!!!!!!!!!!

Balik Kampung... Continued

On 4th June 2006, we started our jourey from Banding Island Resort to Kota Bharu. On the way, we stopped at the highest peak of Lebuh Raya Timur Barat. Took a few photos with the morning sun as a background. Very nice scenery, very fresh air. Almost all the hill were blanketed by mist... the children were so awed. Teruja !!!

Finally we arrived at kampung Babah around 11.30am. Babah can't wait to eat Tok Ma's Rice To Wednesday with extra budu !!!

"Rice To Wednesday tu nasi ke rabu ke Bah?" Asked Abe. Yes! You're right son.

"Once Kelantanese is always a Kelantanese" - Mama's comment.

2006-07-14T01:02:00.000+08:00

Balik Kampung

During the previous school holiday, we have decided to go north and later went back to Kelantan, kampung Babah. This time we have travelled a little bit far because we are going to Auntie Ija's wedding in Kangar. She is Mama's best friend since they were 18 years old. We departed from Batu Caves around 7.30 am with everybody in high spirit ahead of the long journey. Our 1st stop was only after two hours journey because Babah cannot resist to take a nap. Lupa pulak nama R&R tu, anyway Babah met Uncle Borhan, his university mate. What a coincidence. He was on his way back to Kedah for a wedding or engagement there.... Something like that lah !

Around 1.00 pm we stopped again at Gurun R&R. Semua kena mandi dan tukar pakaian. We arrived at rumah pengantin, Kangar around 2.30pm. Auntie Ija looked so beautiful and we were treated with nasi minyak Perlis for the first time. Yum... Yum... Yummy !!!. "Babah, beware. Awak tu baru keluar hospital", kata Mama. Lebih kurang satu jam selepas itu kami meneruskan perjalanan dan singgah di rumah keluarga angkat Babah di Changloon. By 6.00 pm we continue our journey heading to Gurun. It was raining all the way from Gurun to Gerik. The road was very dark especially from Pengkalan Hulu to Gerik. The children were exhausted and finally fall asleep. So many cows and buffalos lepaking on the roadside. Babah and Mama decided not to continue the journey and we stopped at Banding Island Resort. Luckily we managed to get a room. A very big room with no TV. The kids woke up thinking they were already at Kota Bharu. Babah tak sedar pukul berapa anak-anak Babah tidur balik sebab Babah yang lena dulu....

Kat belakang tu ialah Tasik Temenggor...

The Intro....

Muhammad Aiman Hafiz was born on 22 May 2000 around 5.00pm, weighted 3.45 kg and to the "delight" of the nurses in charge for the nursery room, he was a chubby baby and has retained the title until now....

Exactly a year later, on 22 May 2001 around 1.10 pm Muhammad Amir Hakim was born at the same place and the same labour room !!! Same birth date? Same labour room? Same place? How does it happened? Well, kita hanya mampu merancang, Allah yang menentukan.
The first baby girl came two years later, on the 18th day of December, 2003 @ 4.10pm–4.15pm to be exact. She was named Nur Iman Amani. Nur Iman means "cahaya kepercayaan" as at the early stage of pregnancy, a general practitioner (kira doktor biasalah ni) has advised us to abort the baby due to some complication. However, doctors at Kampung Baru Medical Centre has advised us to beleive in Allah and His gift/miracle to humankind. Thank you very much to Dr Norlida for giving us the best advice ever !!! We have hold to our faith for nine month + several days and Alhamdulillah, she came out as a healthy and lively baby girl....

Well.... life will be lonely for Nur Iman without a "masak-masak" partner. So... the 4th baby decided to make her presence on 8 March 2005 and we call her Nur Amira Aishah. Now one year plus and has started walking when she was twelve month, the earliest among the siblings. All of them were born in Kampung Baru Medical Centre, Kuala Lumpur. Kira budak-budak KL la ni…We would like to take this oppurtunity to thanks all family members, relatives, friends wherever you are and also doctors and nurses at KBMC for the support and understanding.

Oh… sebelum Babah lupa, we call Muhammad Aiman Hafiz as Abe. Normally the sulung in the family will be known as abang, abang long etc and Abe is abang in Kelantanese language. The pronounciation = AreBear = Abe. Muhammad Amir Hakim fondly known as Meme whilst Kakak is for Nur Iman Amani. The little one is known as Shashah based on the last suku kata of the word Aishah. Two boys and two girls. The boys dream to become either superman, spiderman, naruto, power rangers or ultraman when they grow up whilst the girls have not decided who are their hero yet... whether doraemon or spongebob squarepant is more handsome....
