Welcome Home Ariff !

Ariff was discharged after spending 3 days in hospital. His blood test result has improved to 9.9. Ayah picked him up from hospital with Wan. He's back to cheer us up.

A Night Without You Is As A Day Without Sunshine

Ayah brought Muhammad Ariff for a check-up this morning. The pediatrician said that the result for Ariff's blood test for jaundice is not good. The reading was 13.4 (normal is below 11). His reading was 10.2 when he was discharged from hospital on Monday. So the doctor advised us to admit him to hospital for phototheraphy. Let's pray that his blood test will improve soonest possible.

Kak Long Alissa and Kak Long Adlina

They share the same title of being Kak Long. But they are too young to understand their roles and responsibilities.

Please welcome Muhammad Ariff bin Shahrizan Adzham to the world !

Our second baby, Muhammad Ariff was born on Friday, 7 November 2008, 9.21 am at Hospital Pusrawi. His weight was 3.34 kg and his length was 52 cm. Well..That's the end of 38 weeks nostalgia. Umi was complaining that her tummy was tightening until the very last day. However, we do notice that Umi's pregnancy this time round is different from the last one. Less foot cramps and morning sickness. But, in exchange, Umi was not a small mama-to-be. Since Umi was 4 months pregnant, the Gynae has been telling us that it's gonna be a baby boy. Adlina finally has a brother to play and fight with.

Well...It seems that both Ayah and Umi need to revisit their parenting skills that they acquired when they had Adlina two years ago.

Musafir Adlina - Syawal

5 Engineers + 1 Banker + 1 Doctor (not in photo) + 1 Still Undecided = Zainol's Family

Summary of Syawal 1429 Hijrah

• Makcik is the only missing person this year. But she celebrated Hari Raya one day earlier than us...
• Final Terawih and Hari Raya prayers were led by Fakhrul Radhi, champion of Akademi Al-Quran 3.
• Alhamdulillah...It was sunny day on 1st day of Hari Raya...but the heat was unbearable.
• Spent 1st day at Alor Janggus (Kampung Wan). Adlina met her great grandma, almost all toks, uncles and aunties (Wan's side)
• Adlina was sick..(almost every Raya)...we took her to Kedah Medical Centre. Lots of people in the hospital as all private clinics are still closed.
• Spent 2nd day at Kangar. Managed to see Mak Su Ti few hours before she delivered her 2nd child.
• And most importantly, Pak Su and Adlina are competing with each other on who'll get the most duit raya this year. Huh !

Musafir Adlina - Pre Syawal

This year, we spent 1st and 2nd day of Idulfitri at Alor Setar. We left KL on Saturday and spent two nights in Ipoh before we leave for Alor Setar.

It is fun to see these two cousins can get along and play the same toys unlike before. We guess they already understand the meaning of sharing. Adlina is also growing smarter and cheekier, everyday her vocabulary is richer but at the same time she is also becoming more attention-seeker. We are not sure whether this is a sign of protest or it is something normal in every child development.
