tiny tapir visit

during lunch hour me and Sarah went off in search for Tiny Tapir. it was located somewhere in Ampang which was nearby to our office and we've been wanting to drop by for weeks but never had the time. i've read in forums that many mommies went nuts over the items in the store, so i wanted to experience it for myself. since i've been driving to work the past few weeks, i thought why not drop by? isetan starts its presales tomorrow so Sarah wouldn't be available to go with me, and i think by next week i'd probably be busy with NRTRDE, so today it is we went =D

i didn't know the way but luckily Sarah did. although she didn't really know the way 100%. we made it up to Lorong Damai 9 before we got lost. hahaha. we actually parked the car by the side of the main road and continued to search for it on foot. i felt like i was taking part in a motor hunt (which i miss. jom jom let's take part in one!!!). we found house # 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 15 (? actually i forgot what house numbers were there ok), but no 9. sarah noted that the Tiny Tapir building was orange in color, but the only orange building we could see was the Al-Maghreb Restaurant. i was ready to give up when i remembered last time i had bought some CDs from Tiny Tapir so i might still have Jamie's number stored in the Answered Call list... and luckily her number was still there. so i rang her up for directions. apparently the dead end that we thought was a dead end wasn't really a dead end after all =P. there was actually a little turning to the left and if you go further abit, you would find house # 9. tiny tapir =P. tiny sungguh!

the area was huge. at first when we arrived there seemed to be nobody around. jamie was in the kitchen area when we were busy jenguk2ing at the windows to look for signs of life; she greeted us at the door. the house was huge. and roomy. we were brought to the back room where they stored all the CDs and wetbags and all sorts of accessories stored neatly in many rows of large pullout drawers. CD heaven =D. best i tell you. luckily i didn't bring my money. else i might just sapu every cute available item that was in front of me. hahaha. jamie brought in a couple of chairs and left us so that we could browse in ease.

they carried Happy Heiny's in prints! omg. luckily they didn't have the new prints that i've been eyeing in onesize. i haven't tried the HH i bought yet so i was thinking i'd try it first before i decide to go nuts over this brand. they had Jamtots berryplush in black too. i heart! i might get this the next time i decide to visit.

jamtots animal prints... oh myyy~

too bad they didn't have Drybees AIO. they even had a red thirsties cover in my daughter's size (i loooooove RED)! but i had just bought one in celery cover, and i think the two covers i own should be enough for now. i have more than enough fitteds to last me for a while (or until my daughter decide to go up a size, which is highly unlikely for it to be anytime soon) so i ended up not getting anything. i got to see and feel envirosax for the first time. i find it hard to believe that one envirosax could carry up to 20kg. i was thinking about getting one for quick trips to the supermarket. after seeing it with my own eyes, i think i'll put off getting one for now.

i wanted to get Happy Tushies wet bag though. they had it in a really suitable size which had two separate compartments to separate the clean from the dirty. but it was a whopping rm70. whoa. i think i'll wait for a sale or something. Sarah on the other hand, bought something. she grabbed a thirsties AIO for rm55. quite reasonable for an AIO =D. we got back to the office quite late, because we got lost and took a long time browsing through the many many many CDs that Tiny Tapir has to offer.

while we were there, there were two cute fluffy cats roaming freely in the house. jamie mentioned that they were initially strays. i think they might just be the most loveliest stray cats i have ever seen. i heart! reminds me of one of munira's kitties i met the last time i went to her house, i forgot its name. hmmmm. i wonder if they kept a Tapir anywhere in the compound? =P
