Sometimes parents are too much.. dressing up and playing their baby on as if they are dolls... not only dressing up, they now has everything done by designers, matching items..... sometimes, I think its a little too much, for too rich babies...
I never had a changing table for my baby. Books i read suggested changing table, friends told me i should have one.. but I never did. Conventional...I just do it on our bed :D .. is that bad? I dont think so.. My baby seems happy lying and facing my face.. hahahahaha
Guess what.. we took zahra into the pool last weekend!!!! Yeah!!! and she enjoyed it.. we enjoyed it to!!! Good girl, Zahraa!!!!
Zahraa said " Well..mummy.. I have this little outfit...a gift from Mak Long.. So .. when can we go swimming???? :D "

Happy birthday ziyad..hope you'll grow up being a healthy, happy kid ok...be a good boy..(oops .. sorry..auntie zoora bagi hadiah ziyad dah ada dah....)
I felt really bad. Yesterday my milk stash runs out. For tomorrow, I just have 3 oz left in the freezer. How hard I pump today, I'm not so sure they might be enough for tomorrow. Yesterday, as usual, i sent over 6 bottles of 2 oz to the nursery. But Zahraa ended crying in hunger by the end of the day. Plain water doesnt sooth her. I pity her, the caretaker mentioned that she was really hungry. So, for he first time ever, today, I sent over some formula (which the hospital gave, I havent chose any formula yet) just in case she went crazy crying in hunger. And I felt really bad, not able to supply enough for her, and she is not even 4 months yet.. My baby is growing.... I'm so sorry darling..... guilt was all over me.... isk isk isk
Just came back from the nursery...its still early and I already miss Zahraa so much... maybe because its Monday... hmm what a day..miss her, still...
zahraa learnt new stuff 2-3 days back.. , even having a fever.. she can hold her bottle herself, bringing it to her mouth. She can hold her toys, and also try to bring it to her mouth. She lifted both her legs swaying to the her side, trying to roll i guess..she kicks hard and bend her body when she wanted something or irritated. Just in a week, I am so happy with her. It is a mothers day gift for me, for my first mothers day. On this mothers day, I felt happy, grateful and eager looking forward for many more things to come.
