How do you do Thursday?

Since Ramadhan is around the corner, I was supposed to fast today to make up the one day I’ve missed last Ramadhan. However, for some reason, my alarm didn’t go off this morning. On top of that, it didn’t even go off to wake me up for work. W.E.I.R.D. I could’ve sworn I did set my alarm. I was, of course, a little late for work this morning :/ and nevermind, I still have tomorrow to fast.

Thank god it’s Friday tomorrow. I can’t wait for the weekend. Nothing special will be going on. All I’m looking forward to is to be with Maya all weekend and have a good time with Mom & Aza before Aza leaves this Wednesday Aug 11th. Booooo =(

Faliq is not in town. He’ll be away from Aug 4th-Aug 11th. He’s in Taipei at the moment and will be heading to LA in few days. How lucky! I wish I could spend my weekends at different cities like he does (with Maya in tow of course =D).

Mom came by with Maya for lunch today and we had our lunch at Pavilion. Maya was awake the whole time so I had to hold her because she fusses when we leave her in her stroller. I don’t mind holding her because most of the day I don’t get to do that. Since I have a little time left after lunch, I wanted to SHOP! But, my dear sweet Maya wasn’t working with me. She can’t stop crying when we were in Zara. I think she’s trying to tell me to save up instead of spend spend spend :p Oh well, maybe some other time. Soon I hope because I seriously need more work clothes and Zara is having some real good sale. I heart them sales =D All in all, I had a great lunch *family*food*window-shopping* especially I get to feed Maya twice! Once was immediately after I entered the car and the other was when we were on our way to drop me off at the office. *bliss*

So now I’m typing this blog while waiting for the market to end. I can’t upload this entry right away because, like most office, we can’t open google-related sites. *bummer*

Oh well gotta go. Gotta work on those trade confirmations.

Toodles!


Mommy + Maya = Inseparable

Ready or not Farah is back!

So my last entry was about how anxious I was waiting for my baby’s arrival and for the passed 2 ½ months, I’ve been loving the life of motherhood.

After 39 weeks and 2days (finally), my Maya Suraya was born on Tuesday, May 18th 2010. She weighed 3.54kg and 48cm in height. She came out bigger than what the doctor expected. Well of course she’s big, I ate whatever and whenever I wanted to =D.

So now I’m back at work. I was away from work for 60 days and believe me, it wasn’t enough. Confinement it self was 40-44 days and 20 days later you are back in your office with no baby in the belly :( I miss having Maya with me alllllllll the time. However, thank god for hubby’s super cool work schedule, for the passed 1 ½ weeks since I’ve been back at the office, I see Maya everyday during lunch break except for 1 day. I get to breastfeed her during lunch break. How cool is that! Oh yes, Maya is a straight-up breastmilk baby. I was super duper worried about her taking the bottle because she loves to nyot-nyot even though she’s not hungry. I was procrastinating on practicing bottle feeding. Why was I procrastinating? Well…I was just so lazy (of course) to do the whole process – express milk and then store it and then warm it up and while waiting for the milk to warm up, the baby is crying frantically in the background. Just TOO MUCH work. I love breastfeeding it’s just so E.A.S.Y. Anyhow, Maya is doing just well with the bottle.

Since I am now around the computer more, I will try to keep my blog updated.

Sincerely,
Farah~
