Selamat Menyambut Bulan Ramadan

Short post je, ingin diucapkan Selamat Menyambut Bulan Ramadan Al-Mubarak kepada semua blogger(z) yang berpuasa..hehe..

Imaan's bogus birthday!!

Sorry Imaan, not your birthday yet, it's Abg 's Ben10's (a.k.a prevoiusly as Abg Batman) birthday. Abah had to say "Imaan, pegang meja je!" (Waaahhh.. anak Mama menurut arahan!). But, Mama & Abah are happy to see how more 'grown-up' you are each day! You didn't really participate much during your own first birthday last February.. (masih tak faham.. or is it Mama and Abah buat tak cukup 'menarik'? :P) so now it's more obvious to see that you are now more excited about birthdays (like typical budak petots your age).. Abah just cant wait to celebrate your next coming birthday for you!

Even your sensei at shichida commented the other day "Haa..Imaan looks more 'matured' (tua kah? :P)" bila 'magic pointer' Imaan meng'demand' sesuatu. Hmm.. before Mama pun dah lupa, this is so far how Imaan punya development:
..Imaan dah pandai buat muka 'busuk'
..dah pandai jalan macam nenek tua (tangan ke belakang sambil bongkok2 sikit)
.. kalau bosan sorang2, imaan akan tiba2 buat bunyi "Gemm, Gemm Cak!" (read: follow rythm "We will Rock you".. 'gemm gemm' tu a unique sound yg keluar dari hidung Imaan macan orang mendengus!)
... pandai cakap "Nanok.." ('tak nak' yang dah hujungnye bercampur dengan muka 'busuk')
.. pandai cakap "mane.. mane.. mane.. mane.. maneeeeee!" (yes, it comes in the particular set of repeated words with the volume and pitch rising with each word! Imaan bukan cari apa-apa pun, just buat bunyi tu as a past-time! Abah kata dia rasa nak gigit Imaan tiap kali Imaan buat camtu.. hehe)
..at one point of time, Imaan kemaruk 'kiss' orang; habis sampai boy sebaya dia kat OU the other day pun dia nak cium (haiya Imaan, stick to the opposite gender lah, ok! -- tapi tunggu dah kawen hah! jangan jadi ashraf sinclair :P)
.. Yang Imaan dah pandai buat for quite sometime is "Bye bye" orang (start dengan "Daa daaa" sebab diajar oleh Cik Yul ex-bibik ke-2, now dah yang ke-5.. or is it 6? Mama has lost count) siap dengan flying-kiss -- upon request la tapi

.. Imaan's favourite is to sarungkan his crocs shoes -- kalau cakap "Imaan! Wear your shoes!" terkedek-kedek dia cari kasut/selipar merah (kusam dengan 'Jibbitz' Mickey Mouse yang dah hilang sebelah telinga) dia tu..Ye. Imaan sangat suka berjalan-jalan.

..Imaan also dah pandai faham arahan -- if Mama said "Imaan, close the door" -- hmm, tipulah, Mama cakap bahasa mesia je "Imaan tutup pintu" :P, Imaan akan terkedek-kedek gi tutup pintu. Hmmm.. hmmm.. upon knowing this, Abah dah berangan pelbagai benda dia nak suruh Imaan buat! But belum habis pun Abah's fantasy, Imaan yang dah bagi arahan dulu! -- Imaan akan paksa Mama ngan Abah duduk sebelah Imaan sambil tepuk-tepuk lantai sebelah Imaan macam pakcik tua nak ajak borak kat kedai kopi..
.."Imaan, jangan laa luah-luah makanan macam tu! If Imaan don't want to eat, put in the dustbin!" Mama. "Huh?" Imaan. "Imaan! Don't hit your head" Abah. "Huh?" Imaan. "Imaan, jangan laa tutup TV!" Nenek."huh?" Imaan."huh?" will keluar if the sentence given to him is long.. or Imaan nak buat-buat tak faham!

...
"Imaan-- buat muka busuk"

Imaan.. Imaan.. ^_^

Takziah buat Zarid & Famy

Semoga Zarid & Famy tabah dan redha dgn ketentuan Illahi, insya Allah arwah akan menunggu kalian berdua di sana.

Day after Merdeka!

Imaan, Mama ngan Abah pergi melawat mak Andak masuk pertandingan melukis di Dataran Merdeka yang dianjurkan oleh Balai Seni Lukis. Congrat to mak Andak sebab menang n dapat hadiah yg best... Imaan pergi sana dapat ape?

been there, done that, get the picture!

Selamat Hari Merdeka!

Pick Your Favourite.. :)

Semua kat atas adalah gambar Imaan yg telah di 'print' tetapi tak semua yg dihantar untuk masuk competition. Abah letak je semua untuk tatapan mama-mama yg online (jual saham Imaan..harap ade yg berkenan..heh). Gambar yg abah paling suke ada kat atas sekali sebab abah ambik gambar 'candid' semasa spend-time ngan Imaan kat hotel di Melaka.

Menang..

Tahniah Imaan..

Walaupun dapat tempat kedua, Imaan tetap the best. Terima kasih pada mama dan Mak Long kerana bersungguh-sungguh menghantar borang pertandingan. Abah tak sure gambar mane yg menang, tapi kalau sempat nanti abah uploadkan gambar tu.

Salam pada 'Cicak-cicak di dinding' pada Imaan.

Abah

Waddle..Waddle..Waddle..

Imaan & Abah went to Tasik Titiwangsa while Mama went to her art class.

Update..?

Dear clever little Imaan..

Ouch! Don't bite Imaan..! Now that you're teething (in addition to the current 6 1/2 -- 2 at the bottom, 4 at the upper front gums and 1/2 on the right upper gums --hmm, really should start looking for their proper dental names) you have been biting here and there, everywhere!

Mak Long said the other day you bit Abang Anwar after Abang Afif pushed you for pulling his hair (talk about chain reaction..).

By the way, there are actually three of them now, with little Ashraf being delivered last 23rd of May. Funny thing was that Mama's friend, Dr.Bahiyah, was coincidently there in the labor room to assist Mak Long's obstetrician. Aunty Bahiyah told Aunty Ayein (who was temporarily posted at Hospital Selayang as well) who then told Mama (another chain reaction?..) about the good news of the birth. He was a cute bundle of.. 4kg! Well, guess that should be expected from a baby one-week overdue..

By the way, Mama started the first class with Madam Ilse Noor at Kunang-kunang yesterday. Good grief Mama's hand was stiff! Really taught me a lesson on what a long break from drawing could do to you.. (and imagine thinking that it would be just like riding a bicycle :P). But it's a good start.

Hmm.. Mama have to get you ready for Shichida class this afternoon. Mama will try to post some of Ashraf pictures later.

Till then,

Sayang Imaan always!

Congrat Auntie

Imaan's lev-dei ot, sound like?

Imaan's Magic Pointer

Happy Birthday Imaan!!....

Mama and Abah wish you ...

Updates

Dear Imaan
Mama's resolution for Awal Muharam the other day was to be persistent and beristiqamah, namely in reading the Ma'thurat and Quran-- while the 'wordly' resolution in regards to beristiqamah would be writing letters to you! (and obviously awal2 dah fail! sigh..)
Well, not to get disheartened, here I am writing again to you even if it would be just a short one.
What triggered Mama to write was actually when looking at your Lily Pie chart-- you're exactly onemonth away from your first birthday! My, my, my..!
Mama am hoping to throw a nice little birthday party for you.. would have to start planning soon. Still can't believe you're turning one.. so far you've now known about 'possessions' and know how to point at things you want . Actually, you've been able to point for quite sometime already since Abah have been training you to "Touch only" when you're trying to grab something which interests you-- like Mama's flowers!. You're still not walking though.. it's like each time I try to make you to, you'd be deciding it's much faster to crawl to your destination! Well, in due time..
Aduih.. mengantuknya Mama.
You know what that means :)
Ta sayang.

It's my party and...

Dear Imaan,

Today Mama turn 27. Hmm hmm. lagi 3 years 30. Oh. Hmm hmm. Why does life seem to move faster as you age? Rasanya masa Mama sekolah dulu, form 1, form 2.. sampai form 5, each year macam so distinctive and memorable.. whereas bila dah start 20++ ni, Mama sometimes take some time to place the year of which some important events occur. Maybe it's just me?
Sigh. See-- the time flies by again! It's now noon and Mama ada lunch date dengan Abah. Nanti Mama sambung cerita lagi dengan Imaan.
Ta sayang

Mwaaaaaah!
