12th Birthday dinner@ Chillies 1 utama

yummy Classic old style burger

   the oh so mouth watering Ribeye steak

my supper yums quesadilla

it was Laith's 12th birthday last Friday. we did not plan for a party unlike last year. instead, we opted for a simple only us birthday dinner at Chilies. it was cosy n relaxing. mehubby n i took the opportunity to spend and enjoy the moment with him b4 he turns into those hormonal scary monster teen from only God knows where in the next couple of years....

for now..dear darling boy, hope u'd concentrate more on ur study since UPSR is just round the corner. tv, games, girlfriends and play can wait, there will be plenty of time for that since they won't be sitting there next to u giving out answers during that every parents nightmare of an exam.

IiiiU baby<3

Love is like Rain by Na YoonKwon

err...must say that i have been seduced into watching this by none other than my K-pop/ drama loving son~ Laith :)

and the result of that i go gaga over the sound track...:P



till my next post, enjoy...

those 3 lil words...

a little update on Laith's love interest..
he was calling his so called girlfriend~ 'HY' last nite using my mobile phone when i picked him up from his tuition class to ask about some homework problems. i didn't exactly paid much attention to what they were chatting about but i almost had a HEART ATTACK! when at the end of the conversation i heard 'HY' said quietly....

 

in the cutest kind of way... 

i mean, no doubt it's just so adorable...she has this kind of cute husky lil girl voice...like if u 're watching those smitten little children characters in movie kind of cute, cute...kind of way...

but when those movie characters come to life & one of the character happens to be ur own child...'dizzy' is not even a word!@_@

do they even know what those 3 little words mean? is it even legal at that age?

ok i need to lie down for a bit...

He's only 10 but now... he's in L.O.V.E!

aish...call it whatever..crush, puppy love...my boy Laith is now in Love!!! *________*
sometimes last week, he blushingly told us that he likes a girl 'LH' in his class but since she has way too many admirers...(they even exchange pictures thru the phone, mind u!)
two days ago, he had a change of heart & decided that he likes another girl 'HY' better who seems to adore him (like she loves pinching his chubby cheeks like...& thinks that he's cute...).
oii whatdoido, whatdoido???

it's good that he opens up about his feelings and all but at this age...*sigh*.  well i 'm not stopping him but i don't  exactly encourage him either....whatdoido, whatdoido???

on a positive note...he loves going to school even when he's not feeling very well... he just insists on not missing school! good hey!? *___*

all i can say is...haish...kids these days!!!;?

Blueberry Cheese tartlets minus the filling..

last sunday, my son laith n i planned to bake some blueberry cheese tartlets together but we ran out of  the cream cheese so off we went to grab some  at the bakery shop. since i was quite in a hurry to get the spring cleaning done before we could proceed with our  baking plan, i grabbed the first 'C' cheese that i saw in the chiller

Laith was all excited about it that he planed  to bring some to school for his teachers and friends to share.

once the pastry was finally in the oven, it's time to make the cheese filling...so out came all the ingredients plus the main ingredients the Cream cheese! while measuring the icing sugar i took a glance at the cheese packaging cos somehow i just realized that it didn't look like the usual Phili cream cheese that we normally use and my heart suddenly stopped beating for a second....yep, instead of 'Cream' cheese, i bought a 'Cheddar'cheese instead!!! oops maBaaad!! :P

 

it was too late to go out and get the cream chese from the store, so i kept the tartlet shells in a container n stored in the fridge for out next day complete blueberry cheese tartlets attempt....oh btway at this point, laith had refuse to talk to me for the failed mission....

but the sulking only lasted for just a bit cos the next day he was all smile again when we finally managed to finished the job and even baked a second batch.

he brought some to school the next day and proudly told me later that some of his friends want to order some those tartlets from him.  

Welcome to the family, Lil Bunnies!

in conjunction with the Chinese Lunar year this year... meFIL bought 5 bunnies for the boys~ my son Laith, & my nephew~Mike, Sam & Eric to play with..well... more like..for Laith & Mike (the two big monkeys were kind of scared of them!)  to look at...while Sam & Eric (the two smaller monkeys) play with...

WeeKee, Lolo, WiFi. Lily & Comot

 Sam & his Comot.

despite the fact that i hate rats & mouse (mickey including).. i think rabbits are adorable.

oh & we did have a bet among the family on how long would the kids be looking after these lil bunnies...

~either the kids got bored of the bunnies or the bunnies die.:(

most of us are betting on 2 months for either one of the two... hope the bunnies have better luck being their year this year...we'll see...:P

Laith's rite- of- passage into manhood with Sunathrone

 

 

after a day full of activities, basketball in the morning, berendam at sungai tekala at midday and playing PS2 with mike & sam while killing the time... tibalah masanye untuk...

"bila pagi menjelang,

Pak Ji Kemat pun datang, (arwah pak Ji Kemat was the tok mudim during the time)

'hmmhmm" (there's a word for it but too indecent to write) PUTUS....! "

( ok sing along now everybody....)

*repeat *

hahaha...this is the one song that i remember me elder brother Along always sings ever since my other brothers, cousins & other relatives turned to meet the tok mudim in the old days  and to all my nephews these days...lucky for laith though meAlong was not around to scare the lil banana out of him with that hellahorror song....xD

anyway unlike the song above, the appointment was made for 4 pm at Poliklinik An- Nisa' in semenyih. No. there was no sunat beramai-ramai thing held there. we wanted to have it done quickly so not to stress laith out & that he has more time to recover before going on our short melaka holiday in couple of weeks time. 

.my not so lil baby during the trip to the clinic..

ok i may have looked overly happy but i had all species of butterflies in that tummy of mine thank u :?

for laith (well not that we have any other sons do we), we've chosen to use the latest technique in circumcision that is the Sunathrone method. invented by Dr Mohd Tasron Surat~hence the clever adaptation & combination of the word "sunat" & his own name into a medical-sounding term!

the equipment used during the dot dot dot..

this method is claimed to be quick, very little blood, less pain but of course not painless or pain free lah ye... &  very fast healing. (ok i'm not being paid for this but thru my observation, yeah it was very quick) & was lucky to have Dr. Tasron himself to perform the Sunat.

only cried masa kene bius..

 was being comforted by the Aby, & the Umy? busy snapping away of course!!!;P

& this was what me hubby wrote on his fb status~"My son when through his rite-of-passage into manhood yesterday... & all i could do was hold his hands while trying not to grimace & crinch...  :( " 

hehehe... no worries aby, umy has all the pictures whenever u feel ready to see ok!!!;P

Dr Tasron at work...

Yeay DONE!!!

 the medication to take home (the pain killer, antibiotic & for swelling)

 to be taken 3 times a day...

one LARGE slurpee to celebrate...

my BIG BABY is now my lil man.

personal comment on the Sunthrone Method: .. ok not that i know of any other methods or experienced (thank GOD) it myself but from my observation with Laith he was able to wear his Bermuda  pants that very same night at home..& was able to play basketball 3 days later.

~end~

Laith pre- sunat berendam @ Sungai Tekala

it was a spur of the moment plan. mehubby n meBil` Kerry had a meeting that morning in KL, decided to leave laith n i at mePiL's house so that he could play with mike & sam before his sunat that evening at 4. mePiL went out shopping & i was kinda bored n anxious at the same time so i decided to take laith to berendam (like what they used to do in the old days instead of kene spray dgn pipe bomba these days...)at sungai tekala.  guess the idea of  berendam is just to ease the anxiety of the boy who is about to part with his baby skin forever....sape yang tak takut kan...umy de pon takut...*_*
so off we went to sungai tekala  some 10 minutes away from mePIL's house with mike, sam, kak mis, tagging along berikan sardinelah in that little kancil...;P

even though we kinda expected (apart from kak meme's confident remarks "ala mesti ramai orng hari ahad cuti sekolah camni, mesti tak ade parking punye...kalau nak pegi tadi, pegi pepagi...)that since it's a school holiday sunday  the place would be insanely packed we were however surprised to find quite a number of parking spaces around...Hoye!!

for this post i'll just let the pix do the talking...

 entrance fee: RM1 for adults, limaposen for children...

 
the walk to the sungai...

the others...

the 1st deep...

kak mis pun terjebak sama...

chebush!!!

sunday sungai picnic...

open air hair wash beramai-ramai...

Laith, during his berendam...

 

 sam dah start menggigil...

 mike just can't take it anymore...

cheeky monkeys...

that is exactly what we did...

the gerai where we bought lunch & drinks...

roti askem anyone?

i would have let them berendam a lot longer if they didn't start mengigil...& complain lapar...

ok next...
