SYAWALRIAH

I was born in Syawal...my parents wanted to name me Syawalriah.  Jokingly I told my family, I would want them to call me Sally :).  After consulting an Ustaz, I was given a lovely name, Nurul Ain Binti Md. Zulkifly. Not so sure what does Syawalriah mean or does it carry any meaning, but Nurul Ain means cahaya mata...wink wink.

My raya preparation this year started very early compared to before, but a bigfoot I am, still looking for a pair of shoes.Today is my very last day, I believe the shoes that is meant for me is out there,Insya Allah.  French soles, I am still eyeing you.

I was so shocked looking at the quatity of E-an's baju raya that he started wearing them from yesterday.  Thank you all for the gifts.  Whenever we say baju raya, kasut raya, kuih raya...he would say baju rayyan, kasut rayyan... he thinks that raya=rayyan... anak... anak...

Han is all set for raya...new hairstyle...he wanted the Fahrin Ahmad look.    Not so sure whether he is a fan of Fahrin... hehe.  Yesterday when I was going through some pictures and Fahrin's was one of it, E-an said daddy...he thought Fahrin=daddy...and of course Han was happy...remember, children at his age do not lie...hahahaha...

Well... my principles with both of them is very easy...If you are happy, I am happy...with limitations of course...

I am stopping here with SELAMAT HARI RAYA...MAAF ZAHIR DAN BATIN...muahs muahs...Assalammualaikum...

MY HAPPY FAMILY

Our latest photo during my cousin's wedding,
Jazmin - Dzul in KB, Kelantan...
adding more Kelantanese to our clan :)

Oh my...it's May...mid May already!!! Birthdays of my two boys...not only the two of them, but the others in my family...from end of May to mid of June.  Han will in Kota Bharu, Kelantan a lot these few months for work purposes. My family from Ipoh is coming end of May for Kidszania... Looking at the brighter side, we will have more celebrations...one with Han and one or more without Han.  He does not really mind, at least that was what he said last night because he is not really into birthday celebration which is so different from me.  I value every moment giving birth to E-an, so the celebration has to be equal :) Hehehehe... just finding reasons to celebrate.  I have been celebrating birthdays like forever, it is very important that a slice of cake would do.  I also have sisters and friends who really appreciate our birth days, you know who you are.  Bisou bisou and I miss all of you.

Weddingsss...

My son got HFMD which I will write in another post.  I am on the way back to Ipoh if incase he needs to be quarantined.  Now, I would like to share my excitement on my cousin, Jazmin with Ajoe weddings in Ipoh (end of April) and KB,Kelantan (early May). I just love weddings or any functions with themes be it color theme or kind or theme anyone could think of.  My sisters and I were busy asking about the themes last year...sorry Min for being too supportive...hehehe... Here goes the themes :-)

Akad Nikah:Purple

Reception in Ipoh:Peach or beige - classic aka tradisional (this is the thrilling part)

Reception in KB: Turqouise

I started digging our closet...hmmm...ok shopping time...TQ Jakel for the crazy SALE.  Let's do a fast checklist:

Now, it is tailor time.  I just spoke to my tailor and she is sick today, hopefully tomorrow OK.  The plan is to bring my dad, Han and E-an to their tailor.  Seriously cannot wait to see E-an in his cute sampin which we bought early this year in Terengganu.

To Min and Ajoe, I wish you all the best.  Enjoy preparing the wedding.  May Allah be with us... always, Insya ALLAH.
