a busy weekend

i went for Quantum of Solace 007 at TGV Sunway last Thursday night, my first movie since having a baby. lol. the movie was OK.

then on Friday went for Dayana's second month checkup at the paed. while she's still on the small side (she's now 3.3kg and 54cm long), the Dr. declared her a small healthy baby girl. yay! i guess staying during the weekdays with my mom has well paid off =D. however she might have caught the flu bug from her Daddy, but it hasn't developed into anything serious yet. so the Dr. gave her some nose drops and flu medication just in case. decided to get her second month jab at a panel clinic so that we won't have to fork out a lot of $$ for it. jabs are really darn expensive *shudders*.

after that we went for my cousin's nikah at Dewan Perdana Felda. most of my relatives were there too, including my grandma from Terengganu =). someone said i was stealing the limelight from my cousin just by bringing Dayana along. someone else said that she would be the youngest attendee of the event, which is true =P. Dayana gets to meet her Great Grandma from Terengganu for the first time! *heart* i even met my uni friend at the ceremony, after dunno how many years of not seeing her. luckily after giving a bottle of 4oz to Dayana, she fell asleep just before the beginning of the ceremony. Hidayah's nikah outfit was really lovely, ivory white with light blue trim. and how i envied her hantaran items! lol. the buffet food was yummy.

on Saturday we went for lunch with Significant Other's colleagues at Seoul Garden, One U. we brought Dayana along (Significant Other loves showing off the new addition of the family, lol). when Uncle Fahmi took a turn holding her she started to cry, i guess because Uncle Fahmi looks like a Sesame Street character, lol (don't take it to heart, eh Uncle? =P). it's just that once she becomes a 'rugby ball' (as Pak Long termed it), she tends to get a little cranky. anyway, i wasn't a fan of Korean food though. i don't know why. but overall the food was okay. Irina suggested starting with dessert first so that it would be worth the money you're paying for. i think they fell in love with one particular ice cream flavor there, hehe.

in the evening we went for Hidayah's reception at Dewan Merak Kayangan. we left the house wayyyyyy late, so by the time we arrived the newlyweds were just about to cut the cake. Pak Lang found my daughter's name amusing as his youngest daughter's full name is Dayana Ahmad Sabri, my cousin (who would be Auntie Dayana to my daughter). see the name coincidence? hahaha. i never even realized this when i picked out her name. i got birthday wishes from the relatives, as well as Boy, whose birthday is a day after mine =) and so did Kak Safiyah, whose birthday is two days before mine. November babies rawks!

at almost three months old, Dayana starts to babble baby talk with you if she's in a good mood. i can distinctively note that she recognizes which one is her mommy now! (ahhh, the feeling of being wanted... priceless =P). she has better head control, she already knows how to mengamuk in style (arms waving, legs akicking and all). she now drinks up to 4oz in one sitting (as well as swallowing alot of air, so burping during a feed is an absolute must). she also has this uncanny habit of wiping her hands all over the side of her head and face during feeding time or whenever she's about to fall alseep, so my mom will swaddle her tightly whenever it's schleepy time. but no matter how tight she's swaddled, Dayana will always manage to get an arm free. heehee. smart kid.

ever since i borrowed my friend's Swing, i've totally fallen in love with it. however i just wish it was a double pump. ever since i tried double pumping, i find single pumping incredibly slow and i have absolutely no patience for all this. hence, item #3 in my wish list! hahaha.

anyway, congratulations to cousin Hidayah and Farid! =) come to think of it, they've known each other since the year 2000 if i'm not mistaken. and that's a long time!

photos will be updated later since i didn't bring my camera so i guess i'm gonna hafta steal some from the others who brought theirs =P
