Wednesday 29th April

Went to Nenek house. Everybody missed Ikram dearly. He recognised people easily now. After few days havent seen Nenek, Ikram cried the moment Nenek carried him. But only for few minutes and he's back to his normal self, wagling and gigling.

Ikram's Chair

Last Saturday, we went to see Dr Loh for Ikram's monthly jap. Dr said it's the last jap until Ikram turn 1 year. He's 8.5kg He didnt gain much of his weight compared to last month. Guess this is due to he is too active now. Then we went to see Nenek and Toki. Both miss Ikram dearly. We went back to our house before Maghrib. Stop at curtain shop for awhile to see what's available for our house.Price too expensive no wonder the promotion said it's free for tailoring if you buy the textile at the shop. Well actually it's not free but they have marked up the price. Then went to the next shop, sofas, bedding on sale. I dont know whether or not it's a good bargain but seems like reasonable for a branded sofas and bedding that were on sale. A baby chair caught my eyes. Hmm without thinking twice, grab one for Ikram.

Friday-ikram today

All the time actively pushing all his strength to move his knee up , rise high his buttock.

Crawling

With all strength and effort he managed tu pull his knee and buttock up and there he goes- his first step of crawling process. But still unable to move his knee forward or backward. However he can move his body by moving to the front and back.Just like riding a horse.Yeaaahhhhh.

Maulidur Rasul Celebration

Yesterday (Monday), Umi was very busy with her Seminar and have no time to update the blog. Last Saturday we went to the nearby Madrasah for the maulidur Rasul celebration. Here in this state or town, Maulidur Rasul has been celebrated for months by the Muslim Community at the Masjid or madrasah. After Zuhur, Nenek, Kak Isna Umi and I went to the Madrasah. Toki went separately. Nenek has been helping the committee, preparing the dish since a day before that.

This gonna be my first appearance to the nenek's group of members. Nenek used to be very active in the Marhaban and Yassin group before her physical limitation occured. However whenever she has the chance to contribute anything at all she will do so.She likes to cook and always contribute in that sense. After few months of 'dissapearence' nenek make her comeback. This is because Umi was there. Nenek need assitant to help her walking and standing, she has back bone and nerve problem. Whenever Umi or Cik Jan was around nenek will have so many plans either to the wedding or Madrasah activities. Itherwise, she will just stay at home and told Toki to go alone.

So we went. Umi was very busy helping to serve the rest because not all committee came with good hands. Most are just chit chatting and eating and I was sound asleep . Umi and nenek can't help seeing the committee busy running here and there with dire needs of extra hands. Crowds was so overwhelming, Toki and Kak Isna joined the rest to the highlight of the celebration i.e the parade. It was a very hot day. It has been no raining for few weeks and the climate was so humid and hot. Saw Umi busy serving cold drinks to the people especially those who just came back from the parade.

So my first appearance turn out to be very cute I guess. Every body wasbusy cuddling, touching and kissing my cheek.Yulk, I will turn smelly soon.

At almost 4 pm we went home to Nenek house. Nenek was so delighted because she managed to meet her friends and she was asking umi to go again in the evening for the nite celebration i.e. the Kulliyah by invited speaker.

After maghrib we went again to the madrasah and I was left with nenek at the Madrasah corridor and Umi went inside and gone. Kak Isna was not with us, she went to her cousin's birthday party with her family. Umi was busy again rolling her sleeves up and gave a helping hands. While the mens performing solat Isha' Umi and few aunties was busy preparing the dishes as the womens were about to have their dinner first. This was due to space constraint. At 9.45pm almost all had their dinner but crowds are still flowing in. Heard Umi told Nenek that food were almost finished and crowds were still coming. I was just woke up from my sleep. Umi gave me her fullest attention now as the Kulliyah almost started. We sat at the madrasah corridor while the rest was under the canopy. I was then gathered by few kakak aged between 8-10 years old. They gathered around me and play with me. I was the centre of fans. Heheheheh dont you know that anywhere, everywhere I go, I will collect fans of my own. They said I'm cute. I dont know but they likes me.

We played till I got tired, Umi tried to put me into sleep but it was so noisy and the kakak still wanted to play with me. One of the Kakak brother was so naughty, heard Umi scolded him becasue he likes to pull me and grab me from the kakak holding. He even knocked my head down. This was when I heard Umi chased him away.The Kulliyah was so long and late. It finished at mid nite and I was already sound asleep by the time we reached home. There goes the celebration.

It's Cereal Time

It's not an easy task to feed him. His hands are both busy to hold the spoon and the bowl and at the same time busy trying to get out of the carrier. He loves the cereal and will maintain posture once you aim the camera at him.

Hold the duck it will start quecking for few minutes and squeeze its finger it will start walking and move about. The chicken has its button for it to move about.
