Nael is 6!

Let's do some recap on his milestone from 5.5 to 6 years old.

Nael is currently reading Dr Seuss's Hop on Pop which he finds it hilarious, Bacalah Sayang and also some of his school materials that is Book 16 for his English reading. He is an average for his reading skills and I'm currently coaching him to do Math from Year 1 book, plus some other Math, English, Bahasa work book bought from some bookshops. He will do one of these activity after he's done with his school homework. He's doing okay for his academic which I have no worry on that and he's now started to speak English again (albeit he needs help in rephrasing his sentences).

He's still into Ben 10 and Ben 10 Force and one funny thing he loves to watch PPG too which I find it quite hilarious. He has some new games for his PSII, some sort of samurai lawan2. He said it's Basara and since he joined TKD classes, he will demonstrate what he learns after each class. His 'new student' is off course his adik :P, the great impersonator :) . Nael latest interest is playing badminton with his cousins, his papa bought him racket for small hand like his, very cute! Alternately, we have been playing freesbie with the kids. Nael instantly fell in love with this game and also he asked for a kite for his birthday. Ehh wait..he asked for so many things for his birthday like roller blades *roll eyes*.

Personality wise...he's obidient type, shy in public, very rajin related to education ie doing homework, reading, what not. He shows his intimacy towards his loves ones, very technical little young man, very drawn into gadgets and quite sensitive about what other peoples think or act towards him.

Health wise...looks like he's allergic to dust, cats fur, he can easily has running nose with teary eyes and sneezing too. Phlemy cough and flu are his 2 best friends :( Still very skinny around 17kg. Eat moderately and very slow too unlike Aidan :P but one thing positive, he would want to taste a lot more variety of food like curry and sambal. I think that's a great achievement for a fussy boy like him.

Nael sayang, Ummi and Papa love you sooooo much and we pray that you will turn out to be a good young man and be blessed by Allah swt in your life. May you be anak yang soleh, disayangi dan disenangi oleh semua, Insyallah. Happy 6th Birthday Sayang, from your loving parents and your die hard fan Aidan :)

Pre celebration...

Nael's birthday is coming up very soon :) Yes, he will turn 6 on this 21st and Ilham will turn 11 right? Elisa..who else sharing the same date? is there any besides Ilham?

First we were planning of having bowling birthday party since Nael is so much into bowling but had to strike that one out as fund tak mencukupi :P , plus we have been at my mak's place since many moons back, so the idea of having the bowling party at our house is not convinient at all. Since, he is so looking forward to celebrate his birthday, I promised I will make do with what we have aka have a little party with his cousins and having a Ben 10 cake.

I have been busy during weekend due to work commitment *yikes* and only last Sunday, I managed to order the cake, yesterday bought rm4 below gifts for the games that we will have and today trying to come up with some idea on the games....so far, these are what I can think off since we will be doing it at night (this Sat) in a confined area of the Wan's living room

1. Blind fold musical chair - cilok dari che na
2. Teka teki
3. Pecah belon berdua guna bontot..hahaha
4. Math question - get the age of this A, B to E person and divide by 5
5. Tulis Jawi - "Selamat Hari Jadi Nael" hehehe
6. Hafazan - 3 Kul & Dhuha : I know Nael can win this coz he can recite Dhuha and others cannot hehehe....aci tak?
7. ?
8. ?
9. ?

What else? Can help give idea on any games that kids age 6 to 12 can have a fair chance to win? with in mind that space is limited and no kotor2 ie: main air/tepung and what not. Tolong! Tolong!

Last game will be....

10. Lumba lari 5 meter for Aidan and his girl cousin (age 1+) bawak belon...hehehe..CUTE!!

Thanks auties and uncles :)

Big Kid vs Small Kid

When one obese kid 63kg in Standard 6 accidentally ran over a 9kg toddler and this small kid was flung onto the hard tarmac and landed on his left abdomen which in turn caused his mid rift left clavicle bone cracked fracture!


That happened to Aidan on last 5th April 2009. My poor boy kept on crying until he felt asleep and that night his movement was limited. Since we did not see any bruises, we treated it as hemmmm " sakit badan sebab jatuh" . After 3 days, we saw a swollen collar bone and for that past 5 days (since the fall), he has been whiny but quite tolerable on our side and we brushed it off and assumed that he was on recovering journey. Little did we know that his clavicle bone is at the tip of broken :( until my mak summoned me on Friday morning right after I settled myself in the office. Ohh man..panic I was, I remember I was puffing and huffing, driving like a mad woman to mak's house, pickup Aidan and straight to DSH. Saw his paed, took his X ray, again saw his paed and he sent us to Orthopedic Surgeon and Trauma Surgeon huhuhu..We were told that the swollen was due to the new bone forming on top of the current one. Since he's young, his new bone will completely reformed in 3 weeks. Therefore, no rough playing in the meantime. Syukur sesangat!


This boy of mine is now recuperating and his next appointment is this Saturday. By the look of it, he is recovering well.





Lesson learnt : kalau anak dah nangis bawak sajalah pergi hospital, no need to wait and see, wait and see :P. That's the difference between 1st anak and 2nd anak, aye?

When he was 18 months old

Wrote this on 4th of March
============================

Last 14th Feb 2009, marked 18 mths of Aidan life journey with us.

What he can do so far...

1) Very much independent on his motoring skill, pincer skill...he can stack up wooden cubes up till 5 blocks, he can pull together his lego pieces which I think quite amazing, he does skecthes on paper when he can get hold of pencils or crayons, he insists to eat on his own with spoon/fork, he tries to take off his shirt/pants and even after shower, he'll get his towel and dry up his dicky..very very cute we thought. He even tries to put on his bajus and shorts and even his brother's undies! *roll eyes*


"My cheeky boy! Mind the mess"


2) F & B - he's very enthusiast about food, very adventurous, wanting to taste every single thing even tissue :P Not much a problem on that department, his favourite is nasi lemak with sambal..mesti merah2 baru nak bukak mulut :) and nasi goreng. He likes junk food too but I think I have done quite a good job distracting him from the junkies, he eats vege!!! yay!! even green vege like timun.. double yay!! On the beverages side, hemmm..he's more favor of plain water which is good and bad. Bad, because, he doesn't drink formula only mommy's milk, that is he'll get his dosage when Ummi's home from work. Been trying to get him drink fresh milk or even Milo (with fresh milk) for 6 mths , still unsuccessful! So, as his paed says, he still needs to take 50% milk...grrrr..worse still he eats little of dairy food. Try..we will...

3) Seperation anxiety - still!!..very much clingy when I'm home and when I'm away..clingy with the maid which is NOT good. Anyway, I'm very sure he will get pass of this.


"Muka trauma. 1st official haircut at barber, melalak sampai bingit telinga"


4) Vocab - hemmm still not much from him except for the common words : papa, mama, abang, kakak, ball, car, doggg, mamam (doesn't count eh)

5) Favourite toys are off course whatever his brother plays. They will play together until one of them cries. Nael will cry when Aidan ketuk kepala abang with anything he can get hold off or Aidan cries when the abang insists in playing his way...boys!! It's scary to watch them play..very very rough.

One thing I would want to remember is the way he greets me at the door when I'm home from work. He squels with joy and clumsily walk to the room, leaving me behind (still at the door) and climbs onto the bed and lie down on his fav bear pillow, ready to have his n*n*n time ..heheh...


"My little Tiger in Action!!"

Color blind? and prezzie

I recall when Nael was around 4 plus when we first have our maid joined our household, it was in 2007 (Nov). His eyes were big and mortified when he first saw our maid. My maid was actually had tough life back in Indonesia where she worked in her sawah bendang dan kerja ladang (we were told) so basically she was overly tanned, boleh dikatakan "gelap". From then on, he always say "Ummi white, papa white, Aidan white, Bibik brown" Each time I hear this I will "shesshhhhh" , "No!!" , " Tak baik cakap gitu ". But I never really stress on that seeing that he is just a kid and maybe fascinated on describing objects with colors.


Then, one day his conversation went like this :-

Nael : Bibik...lepas twelve apa?

Bibik : eight? (with her limited english)

Nael : Noooooo..wrong...Itulaa bibik nie tak tau sebab Bibik brown.

urrgghhh!! *horror*

Initially, we treat it as humour but then until last Friday.....


Moi : Tengah makan and suap Aidan

Nael : poo poo in the toilet and summoned me to clean him

Bibik offered to wash but Nael very adamant that his Ummi yang buat. I was so annoyed and ask Bibik to just do it..Then when they were done, Nael still crying in the room and Bibik told me this

Nael kata " Nael tak nak Bibik wash, nanti bontot Nael BROWN!!"

ROTFL!!!! but then I realised, he was very serious about it. I played along and asked him to show me, he even tunjuk his bare bontot!! What is it with my maid being brown?? *&)(&(^^&^*%$


====================================================

List of things that Nael wanted to give me for my birthday :

1) Donut

2) CD song song

3) Small bottle Not big bottle like in Mak Ngah's room (I think it's perfume)

4) Ultraman

Suffice to say, I received none of the above except for Birthday song and 3 kisses, left cheek, lips and right cheek.

Bolehlah tuuu, I'm touched!
