Touching Heaven, Changing Earth

This is how my mobile phone look like now.

She likes to play with the mobile phone, pressing all the buttons and exploring every single part of it.  Some time she even accidentally calls her daddy.

Well, she is good at saving numbers, pressing on and off and on the mp3.  After she is bored with it she will throw like a “lontar peluru” (what we call that in English?).  I guess after a few throw that is why my mobile phone end up this way.

So, I have to email and Facebook all friends to get their mobile numbers!

Hubby has been to Langkawi many years ago, so it is me and Naomi’s first time travelling to Langkawi and also our very first family vacation.   We planned this trip many months ahead and we managed to booked cheap flight on Air Asia.  Brother- in -law in Canada sponsored us 2 nights stay at Berjaya Langkawi Beach & Spa Resort then we add on additional one night on our own.

I am excited!

Not having enough sleep is making me mad.  Already almost a month I did not have a good sleep due to Naomi is teething, more and more tooth is popping out.  Because of that she is not comfortable especially at night.  But why at night? Sigh…

I am so tired, bodyache and so super stress out.  I get angry so easily.  Yesterday night Naomi wakes up at 4am in the morning!  She had not been sleeping well and yet wake up so early.  I have no choice but to ask hubby to take care of her while I try to catch a few hours sleep.

It is not whether sleeping on a good branding bed like sleep number bed, but it is to have a silent and undisturbed sleep that will cure my tiredness. Sometime I feel like I want to run away from home so that I can rest and sleep well.

At least once a month we all mummies will arrange a meet up.  ChoonLing and WenJia was my secondary school friends in Johor Bahru.  When we found each other through Facebook, we started to keep in touch and try to meet up frequently. This time round of gathering we do it at WenJia’s home.  We had a BIG pot of “steamboat” with a lot of food and drinks.

WenJia took the trouble to set up the dining table and also prepare us delicious ice cream which I want to eat that again!

Actually half way enjoying the food, the power supply was off!  But the power supply was back about half and hour later.  Although we eat and sweat but we still enjoy.

Cooking for Naomi is no longer a easy bitsy kacang putih job for me.  Everyday I need to plan her meal ahead and almost everyday I will look at Baby & Toddler recipe book to find ideas.  Now I am official Naomi’s private chef….

She doesn’t really like to eat the same food for lunch and dinner so I need to be extra hardworking and creative preparing her meals.  Hmmmm, she so demanding lah… When ever I am cooking porridge for her I will add in some roasted seaweed before feeding her and she likes it very much.

I also bought some vegetable cutters, silicon cups and egg cutters from Daiso (The Curve, KL) and continues to pretend her special chef.

Below is something new for Naomi, it is Macaroni with tuna (i use tuna in sunflower oil) and uses the new vege cutter to cut the carrot.
