    Throwback Thursday: Yassin at 3 – 5 months

    Yassin started responding to our voice by smiling. He was more alert and interested in everything that went on around him.

    Yassin began to talk – he started to make all sorts of repetitive, high-pitched giggles, shrieks and noises. He squealed and laughed with delight and made “raspberry” sounds with his lips.

    He could accurately reach out with one hand and trap an object in a mitten-like grab. He would inspect the object carefully and yes, you guessed it right, put it in his mouth.

    Great weekend

    Mom’s Rangoon Creeper

    My mom bought this Rangoon Creeper last year and planted it next to her picket fences with the hope that it will crawl all over the fences. Well, it did! Back then there were only few clusters of flowers, now there are probably hundreds of them! I was absolutely mesmerised! I became more amazed by the scent that this creeper produces! They have sweet, fruity and intoxicating scent! I practically went and smell all the flowers! Crazy me! The scent still lingers while I’m writing this!

    It wasn’t me alone; a bee got intoxicated as well!

    Beside spending time with mom, I went to visit my brother.

    Later went for a break fasting session with my buddies at Madam Kwan’s, Bangsar. (Gosh, I forgot to bring my camera to capture this moment!) Elina came with Ryan her smallest son, Daliza and Helmy with Ali, Julia with her niece while Zamrood came alone. Hadi came too. Marzie can’t make it as she has other plans.

    Anyway, Yassin had a great weekend too!

    Throwback Thursday: my bundle of joy

    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’s Book
    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.

    Yassin’s favourite book!
    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.

    Fun at the Wet World

    Yassin was having a great time at the Wet World Water Park last Saturday. The park is child-friendly where water level is not more than 1 meter deep. The lake Yassin was in is less than 1 ft. Having his father guarding him all the time, I have the pleasure of snapping away his pictures!

    happy boy!
