of the newborn 

it’s a girl!!! ayu and abg awie was understandably over the moon as this niece of mine has been a long-awaited addition to the family. their two older children are hyper-active boys who don’t take no for an answer – so getting a girl is a welcome change

adiba(h?) zulaikha was born @ 7:40pm on last thursday, 16th Aug 2007 making nenek’s and yaie’s total grandchildren to 5 pax – her birthday is one day after her nenek’s who celebrated her 55th year on 15th.

adiba(h)’s a midget of a baby weighing in at 2.5kgs at birth but nurses like anaqi who weighed in at 3.7kgs at birth. has a mop of hair like ernie and is a spitting image of her eldest bro adam.

due to post-natal massage appointments, ayu and her brood are all in keramat since monday – making the family home a somewhat chaotic mini childcare center as kakak and anaqi are also parked there.

kakak is having the time of her life though as she has people her age to consort with (it’s the school holidays, remember?!)

of the new home

last weekend also saw us making a roadtrip up north to a supposed housewarming of amir’s niece (who by the way, is the same age as amir)

amir managed to make the trip to ipoh in 2.5 hours but spent another 45 minutes locating riza’s house. thanx to apathy – i arrived at what turned out to be a tahlil/kenduri sporting a pair of jeans and t-shirt… bahh!! so buat slamber aje laa…

finally saw amir faris – my cucu sedara - who is also the same age as anaqi.. riza’s firstborn is also the same age as kakak – in fact, both riza’s kids are roughly 3 months older than our kids.

the trip back, we made a detour to shah alam to check out the new born – had initially ditched the idea of visiting as per above (the shah alam brood already planning to relocate to keramat from monday onwards). but whilst at ipoh, kakak kept claiming the promised trip to shah alam

‘maaaa…i want to see abg adam and haikal! i want to play with abg adam and haikal’

she kept repeating the request every half hour or so - amir finally relented and we ended up traversing the guthrie expressway to reach her beloved abg adam and haikal.
