Throwback Thursday: my bundle of joy
September 20, 2007 throwback thurs, yassin
Janice of This is a Miracle have initiated a theme for every Thursday called Throwback Thursday where she posts old photos of her sons in her blog. Her idea is so brilliant, so I have asked her whether if I could join her. She is so kind to let me and here is my first post for the theme.
Yassin at birth (in the labor room)
Photos were taken by my husband using his Sony Ericsson mobile phone
Two weeks old Yassin
Photos were taken using Fuji FinePix S5000
I’ve practically have compiled Yassin’s development from birth to 12 months
in a book. I’ve printed it out and binded it myself. I have photos of his ultrascan images, hands and foots prints, first doodlings, first shoes, first toy cars and many more.
This is Yassin’s very first book – My Kitty by Lamaze
The experience of having a baby was indescribable. From the beginning Yassin was his own little person and I didn’t know him. What I didn’t realize then, but have come to understand now, as his mother I have unparalleled access to him and have a chance to get to know him better.
This is an incredible journey and I love being his mom Emila.

Hey Emila, excellent pictures of Yassin. Cool idea you and Janice have going there
Will definitely drop by again next Thursday to see what you guys have posted 
Hello Nick! Thank you so much for dropping by! Can’t wait to post again next Thursday!
How I wish I was born in this modern age and have a mommy like you recording my childhood.
Neat! And throwback Thursday is a great title too.
I love the baby book btw!
aww… so cute.. i can smell the baby smell..
your scarpbook is so neat! he’ll thank you when you show it to him when he’s older! you’re a great mom!
Glad to see your first post up. I came by just now but it was still not loaded. How cool to be able to post some old picture of the boy right? All newborn seemed to have the same look huh. You are a great mommy to keep all of his developments in a book. What about those after 12 mths old? hehe ;p
I’ve got the 2 boy’s newborn foot prints made into mold. It was really costly. Zac’s cost S$169. Amos one cost S$209.
Cant wait to see your younger days Yassin next week

Hola Marzie! Janice made it possible for me to post Yassin’s old photos! Yay!
Jean! I miss the heavenly baby smell!
Janice! Am so glad to join you for this theme. I haven’t keep track of his development after 12 months…too busy running after him hahaha. I wish I could do the mold too. Maybe I will do it during his coming birthday in December. I will post his foot and hand prints next week!
How fun. What a great idea. Love the baby book.
Take care
Sandra
Emila, you mean you buy the mold back to do it is? I saw it selling at Kiddy Palace here. With your creative hands. I bet it will be another art. Cant wait to see
Janice Ng
Awww.. you compile his development. This is cool. I think its a good idea. Maybe once i got married, i would do that too. I’m sure its gonna be fun.
