November Babies

It's that month of the year again. Pockets get thinner and we grow older. S had his birthday celebration at my Mom's though pretty much nobody was around - only us and Wani. Daddy bought half a dozen Delectable cuppies at RM11 each. Crazy. Not a price that I would ever pay. For cupcakes!! But later on the Friday, we had a party for him at school :) Mommy and Daddy took the day off to pick-up the cake, assemble the goody bag,  cook some stuff for the kids and teachers. It was so so fun save the part where he wailed when we started singing Happy Birthday. Yeah, he did it the previous day too..with his cupcakes. God knows why.

For D - I bought him what he always wanted. I pair of Ici Berlins. Yes, they cost a bomb but no..I dont mind, seeing how he bought me that phone for my bday last year. I love it to bits, so Im hoping he loves my gift too. He want to get me a handbag - but I'm still contemplating which bag. Id love a nice, roomy but full calf leather bag. And I am in no hurry.so that can wait til I find the perfect one. MBMJ come to Mommah!

I had a nice surprise for my bday..D walks in after work carrying a huge basket of roses and lilies! And a beautiful worded card that made me tear up a bit. Awww... mengada.

I leave you with pictures as they speak a thousand words. Cliche. Baby S's birthday, mine, D's bday dinner at Tony Roma's with my family,  our weekend trip to Cherating paid for my the MIL, and just some random stuff over the gorgeous, rainy month of November.

Life in pictures. Because I have no space to write. Between work and post-graduate studies, I take it easy and record stuff in pictures.

S, on our weekly Sunday afternoon pool dips.

Yellow pool at the new apartment. Not ours.

Reading list for school. Not good progress.

S and Daddy on a shopping spree.

Had an awesome weekend with both Saturday and Sunday lunches at Sushi Zanmai. Yums. Just thinking about it gets me wanting it for the third day in a row. Watami? Whattheheck?

How was yours?

I am happy

I am happy. Just plain happy.

Yesterday Baby S took his first few steps. I was soo excited. Mind you, he is a baby without any genetically engineered baby formula in his system, so his progress is au naturel according to how nature intended it to be. Formula fed kids grow teeth at 4-5 months, walk at 8 months and have proud parents thinking that their kids are super advanced. Here, I smirk.

D was elated watching Baby S. I believe his exact words were ' OMG this is so beautiful'. I just rolled my eyes at him. How's that for a proud parent. D is really patient with our son, teaching him animal sounds, identifying objects in pictures and they have all these conversation all day long.

Im just the grumpy one who makes his food and milk. -_-

Its cool being parents. Im glad I waited until I was super ready - emotionally and financially.

You want a baby? Hurry, not much time left till you are 35. I believe that's the deadline, no?
