Amir 6th Birthday

23rd October 2009. Amir Zikry bin Rosli, my youngest child, turned 6. As usual, he demanded so many things.First, he wanted Ben 10 cake. Then, he asked for remote controlled helicopter. Then, transformer toys..





Hmmmm...these are expensive stuffs..Anyway, I did get him Ben 10 cake which costs me RM87.15.. As for the other gifts, I haven't got around to look for them yet... Anyway, I'm still thinking of whether to get him these toys or maybe something else...

As usual, the photo taking on birthdays. He put on his new birthday t-shirt and pants...off to the photo shop..Bee Bee (our family's photo shop) And here's the result:

Somehow..he looked much-much older than his 6 years..He looked more like 8 yrs than his actual age..Dont grow too fast, Amir..

I threw a small party for him, in fact his first actual birthday party since his birthday usually fell on Puasa month. Invited family only..

Amir with some of his cousins and sister, Auni and his Auntie. He loves the cake..It was really delicious....






Happy Birthday Amir...Hope you have a wonderful years ahead and may success be with you ...Semoga menjadi anak yang soleh and peroleh kejayaan dunia dan akhirat..Aminnn...

Amir tak nak ngaji...

I came home from work one day and Auni started her normal "CNN" even before I managed to take off my shoes. She will relayed the whole day event in 10 minutes non stop..Then she told me" Ibu, tadi Amir tak mau ngaji" So I looked at Amir...(at this point I had manage to take off my shoes and put down my handbag in between Auni's reporting.) Amir...Apasal tak nak ngaji? He juz kept quiet....So I asked my maid and she told me when Ustazah came that day, he refused to read but he was all in his baju melayu and sat in front of the ustazah. Guess what he did? He juz sat there facing ustazah face down for an hour. Kesian Auni, she had to ngaji for the whole hour since Amir refuse to open his mouth...As soon as ustazah left, he took off the baju melayu and started watching TV...Later he told me that he was watching his favorite series BEN 10 when ustazah came..That's why he didn't want to ngaji..So I made a deal with him...If he mengaji, I'll take him to watch Night in The Museum 2 during the weekend...It worked..he started to mengaji from then on...
Sometimes bribery works....

Spending quality time

Well...I've been neglecting my kids and depriving them of their long deserving holidays. Even though they have never complaint about it but I felt kinda guilty. Every little time I had, I will definitely try to make it up to them ..well..unfortunately my weekends and their weekends do not concide. Mine falls on Saturdays and Sundays while their's falls on Fridays and Saturdays.
Anyway, I took them to play rides and games at the shopping complex, or juz went for shopping.

I'm lucky that my kids are not the demanding type. Whenever I spend time with them, they will enjoy just about everything we did together. Last week end it rains heavily. I just dont feel like going out..then I remembered DDI's cupcakes. Why not give it a try??

I announced to the kids.."who wants to bake cakes??" Both of them started to scream excitedly...well..that's it..I took out the ingredients but still I was still short of a few stuff..No choice..Gotta go out and get them..Rain or no rain..

I ended up buying more stuff than what I needed. That's not unusual for me.I called my mom since she was alone at home (dear daddy went to KL for a meeting). She came and we started the baking programme..The kids were excited..Both were busy helping us with the cake mixing and their favorite..cake batter tasting..Finally, it's baking time..all was set and the first batch went in. Auni keep asking "bila nak masak??" "dah masak ke ibu??" questions all the time..After Putting in the last batch into the oven, I notice something was wrong with the cakes..They did not rise as they should..Alamak..No electricity..The plug was not properly plug in.."Terbantut kek tu" mom said. I plugged back the socket and on with the baking..

Decorating was the best part for the kids. I made chocolate toppings and most of the toppings went into their mouth rather than the cakes..what mstters was that they enjoyed the day..They finished 12 cupcakes in 2 days .....between the two of them..
