Shasmeen....puteri Mama

Nampaknya anak dara Mama nya siap dulu... sebab untuk Abang Haikal, banyak gambo yang nak di sort out kan....

Ni dia................... Nur Dayana Shasmeen.
Nur: Cahaya
Dayana: Yang gagah perkasa
Shasmeen: very beautiful, a heart of gold, trustworthy, an angel, perfect
So panggil Shasmeen la.. biar sedap di telinga & maknanya sekali...kan?
Meen was born on 8th Nov 2006 - sebulan awal dari tarikh jangkaan sebab, again, BP Mama naik tinggi... even worse than masa Abang Haikal dulu.... She's only 2.39kg.... tapi again, Alhamdulillah, susu Mama dapat Mama beri kat Meen exclusively sampai 5 bulan pertama (and by that time, she has grown to 6 kgs!!). Alhamdulillah... tapi Mama sedih sebab Meen tak berapa nak breastfeed directly so supply Mama pun jauh berkurangan dari masa Abang Haikal dulu.... Mungkin pompuan ni memilih sket ek.. dah biasa ngan susu puting botol... walaupun similar ngan Mama nyer.. masih lain!
Anyway, right on the day you turned 5 months, Mama dah kena campur ngan Heinz... memilih lagi sebab tak suka yang masam2... nak banana-flavor, jagung manis, and all sweet....
Cuma satu.. anak dara Mama ni, memang susah betul nak senyum... tapi kalau senyum, nampak lah lesung pipit (yup, trademark mama lah tu!!!) yang di sebelah kanan..... walaupun pipi tembam! hee hee hee
Meen masa baru lahir - kecik ek?

Suka tido camni... selesa nya!

Buk Tini dukung....

Bila Meen dah 3 bulan.... see the difference?!!!

Baru 4+ months dah meniarap
Recently at abt 5 months

Cute tak???
Dengan Abang Haikal atas keta Mama and .... all 3 of us!!!
OK... nanti Mama sambung lagi!!

Haikal.... how U've grown....

Hari ni macam nak recall plak about Haikal.... anak "bujang" Mama yang sorang ni...

He's born on 3rd August 2004... Ingatkan nak samakan ngan Abah dia tapi Dr Idris (the gynae) kata... "nope, cant do" sebab BP Mama tinggi sket.... so ambik lah "date" Mama (3/9) and "month" Abah (5/8).... so there are 2 men in my lives celebrating in the same month, diff day - tapi kira boleh jimat lah, beli 1 kek aje ek?

Muhammad Danish Haikal.....
Muhammad: Nama Nabi agung kita Muhammad saw
Danish: Yang bijak, berpengetahuan... (ada lagi tak ingat)
Haikal: Yang subur (seperti pokok yang rimbun)....

InsyaAllah moga anak Mama jadi orang yang berguna, dirahmati, sejahtera nanti di dunia & akhirat...

Masa Haikal was born, he's only 2.69kg.... kecik ke ek? Tapi Alhamdulillah... ada rezeki susu Mama yang agak "meriah" and Mama managed to exclusively breast-fed you for the first 6-months (Yupp... nothing else but breast milk!!) .. dah lepas 6 bulan tu baru Mama campurkan dengan bubur nasi yang di blend... campur ayam kampung, broccoli, kentang, carrot, apa lagi ek?.... berwarna-warni & berbagai rasa...

Masa baru 2 bulan, berat Haikal was more than 5kgs already and in the 3rd month, 7.5 kgs!! Alhamdulillah... memang bagus susu ibu ni ek... and you are hardly in clinics...

Bila dah besor sket... a lot of things happened, of course, some of which are in these series of photo shoots.. check the slide show....

- masa the first few months
- First Hari Raya 2005
- With the Johor royalty kat rumah "oyang" sebelah abah - kat Parit Betak, Benut, Johor.
- 2nd Raya 2006
- dgn "uncle Nuar Jen"
and many more to come!!!

Date with AZ - JW Marriott

For 3 consecutive years already...an annual date with the most eligible, charming, popular bachelor I adore and lurrrrve to hear singing LIVE... who else but ANUAR ZAIN.... Falls on 18th April 2007 - sanggup ambil cuti!!!

The day didnt start well.... of all the days, hari ni lah ada amoi nak cium punggung kereta kita ni.. dah le masa tu tengah teringat breakfast manu kat Village Park.... and tengah excited nak date dgn AZ ni... tapi tak pe lah, maybe ada hikmah later in the day, ek?

Anyway, I had to be the chauffer for all the beautiful ladies - Che La, her sister Kak Liz and Mint. Not that I mind cuma ingatkan dapat lah naik keta baru Che La... tapi melepas!!

Anyway, lepas breakfast - Kak Liz nya treat, thanks.... - kitorang pergi KLCC dulu. Kak Liz nak be in the theme of black & white... cantik baju dia! tapi lepas dah sampai Marriott baru kitorang perasan ada sesuatu yang "pelik" tapi menggelikan hati berlaku pada Kak Liz..... (our secrets lah ek, Kak Liz). But we all had lots of fun!

Sebelum masuk banquet hall, sempat gak amik gambo ngan Cheryl Samad - the emcee for the day. She's gorgeous... and very sporting.


Kat dalam hall, sebelum the very AZ masuk, amik dulu gambo beramai2....Kak Liz & KC ni baru 1st timer this year. Che La has been my partner-in-crime for all the 3 years, while Mint joined us from last year....


from left: Che La, Kak Liz, myself, KC and Mint.

Nampak lak Farah AF2 kat meja Belle... so ambik lah dulu gambo sebelum majlis started.



During the show, I used lots of my handycam... jadi tak banyak lah gambo... masa guna handycam pun, sebab tak professional, nasib lah what it's going to turn out to be...

Yang paling best, masa autograph session.... lama jugak kitorang "boikot" masa Anuar...
We (Mint, Che La and me) decided to give him nama dia in Khat - Shahrul Anuar Zain.....


tunjuk dulu kat dia how the name is to be read

Voila!!!! kenalah ada gambo kenangan kan?

Tapi yang paling best and most memorable is...........jeng jeng jeng....
bila tengah sign autograph tu, he serenaded me with the Perpisahan song.... perghhhh memang boleh buat tak tido malam!!! Mint and Che La tolong rakamkan on their cameras.... nanti cuba posting kan kat sini....

All in all.... BEST! BEST! BEST!!!

Tak sabor nak tunggu album launching dia in July.....

This is the beginning of.....

I treasure all friends and people I've met along the way...... U make up who I am today....
