“No baby!” yells Ayub as Sulaiman clutches tightly to one of THREE Ultraman figures while pretending he can’t hear Ayub’s pleas… Ayub stares down at his little brother in building rage and threatens to...

The hubby was shaving with his electric clippers outside in the front yard the other day for some reason. I didn’t ask why. He’s an anomaly. He talks a lot about nothing related to...

Sulaiman and Ayub are both sick. Fever, cough, runny nose. Sulaiman’s phlegm made him vomit twice today. However, they don’t seem to have noticed anything. Still energetic little balls of mischief. Spent the evening...

We usually have breakfast after the show because we start at 5am and don’t stop until 10am. And seriously, who has the time and the stomach to eat before 5am? One morning the boys...

It has come to a point where it is impossible for me to take pictures of the boys together posing. Mostly because Ayub is either not in the slightest bit interested, or he’s overenthusiastic...

Ayub first saw kids ride on cars when he was a fat baby, before he could walk on his own. He would push and squirm and struggle out of my arms to get closer to them...

Ayub’s new thing is to bathe outside in the dustbin. Ah youth. His imagination and practically definitely comes from his father. I don’t think I ever initiated anything as creative and fun as this....

Hunny is stunning all the time. Now that she’s pregnant, it’s overwhelming. Pretty pretty pregnant lady. I love my Hunny Mads. She refuses to tell me the sex of the baby. But I’m gonna...

I was 21 when I had Ayub. I knew nothing about child care. I depended heavily on my mother, which isn’t a bad thing, but in retrospect, I should have depended on myself. Fortunately for...

I receive weekly updates on my babies’ development from babycenter.com and this one came for Sulaiman today: Hmmm… “precrawl” exercise? My fat Sulaiman has been crawling since he was 5+ months. He’s so awesome....

 After weeks of chewing on his fingers, sucking on his gums and sticking his tongue out, a tooth has arrived!! Sulaiman has been a little cranky, but because he’s such a good-natured baby, his...

Two weeks ago my dad rescued a bunny that was stuck in the middle of the road. He was tiny and malnourished and trembling in fear. Brought him home, put him in the garden...

I brought the babies out jalan jalan the other day. Ayub loves the arcade; he tries out everything, once in a while I’ll change money to tokens and let him play for real. But...

Ayub is awesome. Holds his pee. Let’s me know when he needs to go. No accidents since DAY 3. But sometimes, when he naps in the daytime… it’s a 50/50 chance. Luckily he doesn’t...

Why do boys fight all the time? Adam never put me in a choke-hold when I was a baby. I never pulled his hair out when he was a toddler. Adam never pressed his...

  Last week I brought Sulaiman upstairs to take his bath. Put him sitting down in his cot. Turned to fill the tub. Turned back and he was on his feet. 0_0 I think I...

I get weekly email updates from babycenter.com and this week it said Sulaiman is 6 months 3 weeks old! He will most likely be able to roll on his tummy and back, and may...

Daddy loves to kacau and kiss his babies. They don’t like it so much. As in, not at all. Smile! Sulaiman Sulaiman! Smile! “no kissing Daddy…” “Noooo… kissssssssing…” “I said NO!” Anyhoo, I was...

It’s become impossible to get the boys to BOTH sit still long enough and look up at the same time to take a decent picture. You have to take multiple and just post them...

DAY 2Came home from work at 2 pm to find Ayub still in his pjs and diaper from the night before. Yuck. The maid said he cried for 3 hours from 7am-10am when she...

I’ve been encouraging Ayub to give up diapers for a year. He was not interested. He’d scream and yell and cry at the mention of ‘no nappy’. Bought Ayub a cute potty of his...

Sulaiman hates bananas. Loves carrots. And sweet potatoes. Got constipated. Bought him prune & apple juice. Haven’t tried that yet. Pears tomorrow. Disaster case. Other days are not so messy. Some days are worse....

 Sulaiman had his 6 month check up and jab last Saturday. He’s a big big baby now 🙂 Hitting quite a number of milestones early – sitting up on his own, crawling and pulling...

Not really. But I put him in his walker for the first time last night. He loved it. For about 10 minutes anyway, then he got bored. Doesn’t really move. Just sort of a...

Sulaiman gets little attention from his idol, Ayub. The odd times that Ayub looks in his direction it’s usually to scold him for touching his toys, to push him out the way of his...

Sulaiman was 6 months and 1 week old last week. So he had his first semi-solid food. Carrots! He like it. He like it a lot. He fat. So fat. Tasting, thinking, hesitating. Quite...

  They don’t look alike. Yet everyone says they both look like me. How liddat?

Is that how it’s spelled? I dunno. I’m a banana. Prem got so excited and tickled last year when he discovered Malays wear the same coloured baju on Raya. I guess it is weird....

Happy Half-Birthday little munchkin of fatness 🙂 HAMAIGAAAD he is so damn cute. Masya’Allah. I love you Sulaiman. He can sit up if I put him in a sitting position, and move seamlessly to...

 Ayub has loved Angry Birds for a long time. Above he is getting beaten up by one, way before Sulaiman was even conceived.  The boys watching cartoons after their bath, before bedtime. Is it...

Three years ago we had our first family holiday to Langkawi when Ayub was 1 year old. It also doubled up as my honeymoon coz the hubby and I never had one after we...

Reposted from my now deleted Facebook account: Sleepy 1 day old baby don’t wanna wake up Time for a bath, wakey wakey smelly baby! “I don’t wanna baaaaathe!!” Ultimately too sleepy to care. “RAAAAWWWWRRR!!!”...

His royal fatness is now 5 months old and after exclusively pumping since he was born, we’ve finally got an awesome schedule. Things were crazy at the beginning, pumping every 2 hours, Sulaiman up...
