Trip to Portland

Last week we went to Portland to get 'last minute' baby's stuff. We are about 70% ready for the baby..aiyaiyai.. I'm not sure if I need to get more stuff since ther're few people at my office yg plan for baby shower. Weihooo!! Tapi mat saleh ni sometimes janji je lebih.
Anyway the most important gear tade lagi, which is a carseat. Kalau tade mende ni takleh bawak baby balik from hospital nanti. Ni yg susah sbb tak tau nak beli brand ape. Since nak kena matchkan dgn stroller lagi. Hadoi I don't know la. I might go with maxi- cosi carseat $169.

So..Portland was superb. We went to Baby r us; our favorite place to look for baby items and Ikea. Ikea mmg best! I love the way they design the place and how the show rooms look sooo well decorated and comfy. Banyak jugak brg baby kat situ.. and sume murah2. Wah happy betul..pelik mcm mana barang kat Ikea bole murah2. Strolling around kat Ikea tu...I saw this leather couch. It is so my style la.. Tapi harganye $1500..huahua..Zuhri terkebil2 jela tgk tag harga hehe. We spent about 3 hrs at Ikea, then pegi makan, then headed to Baby r us. Kitaorg bertapa about 3-3.5 hrs jugakla kat Baby r us. Yang pening nye sbb sume barang mahal2 huhu..so berpening2 pikir nak beli ke tak jela. Heh... pening pun spent about $500 that day.

Let's see what we got from Portland trip

1. Baby stuff inside the guest's room

2. Baju and the only baby toy that we bought. I like the katak.

3. Treasure bag: baby book, diapers, baby first aid kit etc.

4. Pink Changing cart/box. Zuhri tak suka sbb color pink ..so not for baby boy.

5. Crib in our living room. Tak muat pintu bilik.

6. For the guys: Please close your eyes, you don't want to see this.

7. Tummy at Wk 32

The last two pictures were requested by Nonoi.

Anniversary Weekends

We went to Olathe KS to watch the Dark Knight with IMAX last Saturday. It was a long long trip because of multiple road constructions on the way to Kansas. Haiyaaa.. so we took the back road most of the time, and we were just in time!


Anyway, the movie was great. But while watching the movie I kept thinking about the now-dead Joker & how dark the storyline was (urgghh..) And about the IMAX thing, only some scenes were in IMAX. Those that required computer generated images were in the usual movie format. So basically, I didn't really feel that much different, IMAX or no IMAX. Fortunately we only paid $6 per ticket (not the usual price $14), so no big deal.

After that, we went to the Ethnic Festival at the Swope Park. This year event was much much better than last year because now we know these people who organized the event.

2nd Year Anniversary

12.08.08- today is my 2nd year anniversary. I'm quite surprised sbb rasa dah tua huhuhu. No big plan actually for today since we are now saving money to go back to Msia. But we are planning to watch the Dark Knight at the nearest Imax theater which is in Olathe KS this weekend. Can't wait!!

Back then.. wedding reception in Sungai Petani, Kedah.

Week 33

Mommy's weight: 132 lb

Waist: 37"

Baby's weight: 4.75 lb

Latest check up: 08/08/08

Mommy's emotion: Mommy is still tired. Lama termiss milestone ni sbb penat sgt. I think since baby is getting bigger, banyak energy mommy dia sedut kot. ahaha.. Now segala mende la sakit. Sakit pinggang, sakit kaki, sakit perut, sakit mata..my vision is getting really bad. Doc ckp mmg common among pregnant women, mata akan jadi makin teruk. Skg ni mmg mcm first trimester..tido je all the time.
Baby's class dah khatam. The last class was baby safety zone, sugguh la bosan n tak guna class tu.

Baby's development: Baby hasn't been moving that much. Slalu dok diam je. Tapi once he starts moving, aduh sakit jugak kadang2. From the readings that I've done, the baby is so big now that he won't even have space to move. I realized that he's more active at night. Time malam la dia dia busy golek sana sini, bertukang sana sini, baby ni tgh modify rumah ke. huehue sakit woo. I hope that the baby is not going to be a 'night time baby' nanti (baby yg active mlm and tido siang). Kalau berjaga malam je habis la mommy and daddy tak tido. I'm sure daddy will get cranky.

Baby's preparation: Baby class dah habis. I think I'm 50% ready..huaha takut. From the classes, I've decided to take epidural, and maybe I'll pass on the Doula. Mahal jugak doula ni $500-1200..mcm bayar doc plak. Takpela...I'd rather yell and tampar2 zuhri dari bayar $1200 for doula ahahha. Lagipun I think the epidural will take care of the pain.
Next step is to get more baby stuff and my stuff for hospital stay. I'm going to need a birth plan too.
Oh did I tell you that I just bought a crib last week. It's a super expensive one $281. Hadoi... mommy and daddy pun pakai secondhand katil je ye, ni si kecik dpt katil baru pulak amboi2. Heheh. Zuhri assembled the crib in the living room. By the time he's about to take the crib to our room, crib tak muat pintu! Aiyak. Now the crib is sitting in the living room doing nothing.

The sweet expensive crib waiting for our little one.
