8 months old now :)

Assalamualaikum. 

Alhamdulillah, my baby girl has kust turned 8 months old a few days ago. Gomenne, Ummi should have made this post earlier, but Ummi totall forgot about this. Hehe. 

Anyway, Khayra's progress so far is as good as she is. She can crawl fast now. And she loves to get up by herself, holding to any higher stage, including us. Her eagerness and curiosity has become higher and wider. Hehe that's normal! 

This is when we went to Sano Outlet in Golden Week last few weeks ago. 

Last weekend we went to Sagae-shi in Yamagata for some ichigo gari (strawberry picking) there :) Khayra wore the same dress! Haha that is our favourite actually :P

My girl is 7 months old :)

Assalamualaikum.
Hi there!

My baby girl is 7 months old today.
In Nihongo, we say 7 as 'nana'. If in Malay Language, it is 'tujuh'. Hehe tu pon nak cakap kaaaa. Haha. Pon boleh kann

Anyway, Khayra is doing just great. She's been growing well and excellent. Two teeth are so visible now. In fact, she knows how to use of her teeth. She bitrs all her toys. And she can actually now eat her senbe by herself. One small bite, one by one, and let the senbe melts in her mouth first and swallow it, and apply another small bite on her senbe using her teeth. Kids just like us, Allah creates them, perfected with instincts finely. They know how to use their instincts. And I know it's sunnatullah :)

Oh 'senbe' is just 'crackers' :) and for khayra, she's been having just veggie:fish senbe recently :)

Khayra's first tooth!

Hi there again!

It's been almost a month since my last entry. Told ya, this blog has officially become a monthly update blog, hasn't it? Anyway, khayra's first tooth is now visible. The left lower tooth has come out. Left! Which makes me in high hope of wishing she will be lefty just like me! Hahaha. Just kidding! As long as she is healthy and growing excellent, lefty or righty does not bother me that much! :P

Oh the second tooth is slightly visible too actually! Both teeth are growing well. Alhamdulillah. It's such a blessing to be able seeing my daughter comes up with another milestone. And everyday is a bright new day to her, learning new things and I also as a mother have lots of things to learn and understand. May Allah ease everything inshaallah :)

I am 6 months old minna!

Assalamualaikum.

My girl has officially turned 6 months old yesterday. She is now halfway to being a 1 year old toddler. May you grow up healthily and happy always my dear. Ummi & Ayah love you so much!

P/s: 'minna' means everyone

Favourite Spot

This is my husband and I's favourite spot to kiss our little sugarcheeks! Hehe. We just can't get enough of her everyday. Alhamdulillah Ya Rabb for this blessing. Moga solehah sokmo anak ummi ayah ni!

Yuki 2013

Assalamualaikum.

Hi everyone.
I name this post as 'Yuki 2013' simply means 'Snow 2013' or in other words our winter experience in 2013. It's just a way of us remembering our winter moments, i year 2013, most of the time we're in Yonezawa.

It's been said repeatedly that winter i Yonezawa is so taihen (tiring). Yes it is. You really have to put big extra effort in handling the snow. It's not as simple as when it falls, and the snow will cover the land beautifully and we can start our snow play and so on. Simply no no. It's not as simple as that. And if you live in cold areas, the snow will just stay there, refusing to melt, and choosing to be in that snow-state depending on how long the cold temperature lasts. The snow will get solidified, become icy. And icy means slippery. You have to have that winter boots where the base are specially designed for walking on slippery surface in other words, icy snow.

Hehe and why on earth am i saying here? Hehe i just find that heavy snow as hard as situation of you getting into bad traffic. But let's just put that aside and enjoy this moment because after all, it's one of the best experience, isn't it? I know one day I will look at all those snow moment photos and be thankful that I've been through this. Been there, done that! Hehe. This is what we call blessing in disguise then.

Phewww again, this entry is getting tedious isn't it? Whooshh!

And I believe this entry is better if it comes with some photos uploading here. Hehehe. Enjoy!

5 months old :)

Hello again.
So roughly, it has been a month since my last update. Hmmm this blog has officially become monthly-updates, hasn't it? Hahaha! It's not that I don't have time to say something, but recently, I have been spending those time updating and checking on my instagram and twitter. Facebook is not an exception of course. So, I've been keeping this blog of mine in a mess and in abandon-state. In any chance, have you found any spider web here? Hahaha.

Oh anyway, to break off this abandon-state, let's say something about our little sugarcheeks turning 5 months old! Alhamdulillah! Again, how time flies so fast, doesn't it?

She can roll on her tummy now. But it seems she has not yet fully enjoyed that, because most of the time when she rolls on, her hands kinda locked up under her chest. Hehe so funny when she wanted to smile but at the same time was struggling with her own hands. But hey, that would count as a another milestone for Khayra! Clap clap to my girl! Hehe.

Well, here are some photos of her. The last photo was snapped yesterday, the day she turned 5 months old.

4 months old

Someone has just turned 4 months old today!
Sorry tak sempat nak update apa apa when we were in Malaysia. Nothing can beat time with family! :) Anyway, this little girl of ours is 4 months already! How time flies. She has been learning lots of new things every single day. May you grow up healthy and happy always my dear Khayra!

3 months Already!

Alhamdulillah :)
Anakanda tersayang is now 3 months old :)
Shall update some other stories. But gotta put on hold about that.

Tick tock tick tock

Tick tock tick tock.
We are now counting down the days to meet our families and friends in Malaysia! Only 7 days more left :) May Allah ease everything and make our journey safe and smooth, ameen!

One Year in Nihon!

Today is December 6th 2012.

The date I first arrived in Japan is the night of December 4th, 2011.
So just a quick update simply saying that it has been a year for me, living in Japan.
Alhamdulillah Ya Rabb, for making this valuable for me, for giving this huge experience.
Although having said that, despite all the ups and downs, the hardships that my husband and I had to go through. We have become even stronger and wiser, inshAllah. Hoping for better us.

Slowly I adapt to living in Japan. There are a few changes that make you become adaptive towards those changes. Especially the spacious house. Huhu you have to be really really really rich to afford a big and spacious house if you want to live in Japan. Like reaaaallly rich! Hehe. Anyway, staying in just a nice comfy house makes you realize to become more grateful of what you have. Alhamdulillah again. My nihongo has not moved to any higher level though :( But I've got an increasing number of nihongo vocabs, yeay! Thanks to my husband of course :)

Alritey, some photo sharing peeps :)

First Injection

Alhamdulillah.

Khayra had her first immunization injection (two shots of vaccines) last week.
She is now healthy and happy and becoming more active everyday.

Juruh anok Ummi ni, teriok kejap jah maso keno cucuk tuh. Hehe

Gambar Passport

InshaAllah kami sekeluarga akan balik Malaysia pada 14 December ni. Tapi passport anakanda Khayra tersayang takde lagi. Wuwuwu. Kalau nak buat passport kat sini, kena pegi embassy Malaysia tu kat Tokyo and it will take up to 3 months untuk passport tu siap. Pelik kan! Why kat Malaysia boleh buat dalam masa sejam je. Wuwuwu lagi *tak puas hati* hehe.

Anyway, so for Khayra, we have to apply the Emergency Certificate lah jawabnya. And proses untuk siap around 1-2 days. Dah discussed dengan orang kat embassy tu and they promise to complete it in one day. Jangan la nak buat drama plak yer. Kami nak balik kampung nih. Hehe. Nak buat Emergency Certificate ni, requirements dia lebih kurang nak buat passport je rasa. Gambar passport kena ada. Yang tak puas hati nya tiket return tuh. Tak paham plak. Hoho harap maaf, saya tak keje ngan pejabat imigresen. Hehehe.

So 3 days ago, pegi lah amik gambar passport cek mek Khayra nih. Hehe. Susah jugak rupanya nak jumpa studio yg sudi amik gambar passport budak kecik. Oh Yonezawa!

Away for 3 days

Encik suami ada outstation di Kyoto. Jauh sangat lah dengan Yonezawa ni. Naik shinkansen pon total hours of journey is about 5 hours gurai. Sebab kena stop kat tokyo eki plak kan.

First time kena tinggal ni. Nasib baik anakanda ada bersama so takde lah sunyi sangat. Tapi anakanda hari ni meragam sket. A bit cranky. Nak berdukung aje. Tabah lah yer Ummi. Demi mu Khayra! Oh hoii nak pengsan rasa. Hehe

Yuki 1st December

Betul betul yuki turun 1st Dec baru baru ni. A few days before tuh, mashaAllah sejuk nyaaa! Sejuk sangat. Hadoii.

Someone has become 30!

November 30th, my husband just hit the 3 series number! Hehe. He is 30 now. A very proud father.

Really, this is a quick update.

So happy birthday to my greatest man, our hero in the family. The one who works hard for me and our daughter. Never complains. My best friend, my best mate ;)
