Hot Air Balloon Fiesta – but no hot air balloon?

We made it to the hot air balloon fiesta. Even though tersasar dari timing yg asal. We planned to be there as an early bird and grab the chance to take the hot air balloon ride, tapi disebabkan we arrived PJ from my hometown around 12 midnight and hit the bed around 2 am (since we need to unpack and kemas-kemas) last-last tk dpt nk bangun awal sgt.

But still, I want to go to the fest sbb Ichiro sure excited nk tengok so many new things to him kan. So off we went to Putrajaya. Sampai jer sana around 3.30pm, panas ya amat yer. Imran cam sampai jer dekat parking terus ajak balik ok. Boleh? Cakap kesian anak dia kene panas. Me on the other hand, cam alamak dah sampai just turun la kejap tengok apa yg ada kan. Ichiro plak dalam kereta on the way pergi Putrajaya tanak tido. Dia mcm pelik nk kene tido dalam car seat siang2 hari buta. But he doesn’t have problem to sleep while sitting in the car seat during night time tho. So, sampai Putrajaya dia dah sleepy semacam. Itu lagi la buat bapak dia cam tk senang hati nk turun dari kereta.

But lucky me, finally Imran agreed to drop for few minutes to look around, then he said after we done, quickly balik la. So, took out the stroller, tapi shade stroller tu tk cukup besar utk teduhkan chiro. Imran kata “tgkkkkk tangan chiro kene matahari, melecur nnt!!” Wah, boleh melecur ker? Confuse i. So, since I ni cam suka nk fikir benda2 yg nk dicipta, so I cakap why not kiter pasang payung and sangkut dekat handle. Glad that it works la utk teduhkan Ichiro completely, tapi then the umbrella asyik gliding, so, I pin the umbrella to the stroller with my brooch. Problem solved!

Gambar mcm pecah sket, sbb I zoom to the max

But still ada 1 problem, kipas angin kecik Ichiro dah rosak, and Imran was so terkilan that he didn’t buy the new one earlier. Bila I cakap, ha salah u la, saper suruh tk beli. He will just keep quite and muka cam guilty habis everytime i make such remarks. Wah everything about his son, would really touch his heart deeply.Kiteorg ada gak tanya-tanya kedai2 kt situ, ada tak jual baby fan tu, semua kata tak ada and Imran sampai one point dia cam marah org tu tk jual. Hahahaha.

Him: Ala, apasal tk jual bro , kesian kt baby ni panas ni
Brader jual: Tu la bang, kalau saya ada jual bang, mmg saya dh jual kt abang dah

Hahaha pengsan haku. Lawak pon ada.

Masa tolak Ichiro, tengah2 panas tu, Ichiro dah mcm nk tido, I was bit concern on the shirt that he’s wearing. Shirt tu mmg la lawa kan , tapi cam panas. But, I tanak kacau dia yg tengah sleepy, so biarkan jer. We, can’t find the fan for Ichiro and it really made Imran’s heart break to see his son berpeluh. Lucky Ichiro is a good boy, he didn’t show any sign of being uncomfortable. Then we lepak under tree, and was so glad that Ichiro finally dozed off by his own. Tk menangis, tk der kasik milk, just water…he terus tertido cam tu jer. So, I told Imran to sit under the tree with Ichiro and pass him my hand fan at least boleh kipas, while I go and check for the tix.

Imran yg sedih tengok anak tidur dalam kepanasan

I jalan jauh gak la, looking for the counter, tapi from far I dh nampak org beratur. Hihi. So, terus I buat u-turn. Malas hokayyy nk beratur. Then, I ternampak on my right side ada few inflatable and byk jual toys and my eyes quickly spotted the baby fan!! Omigoshhhh they actually selling it here! Yayyy!! So, I pon cam berlari nk pergi beli the fan. Ada org2 yg blocking my way, I rasa cam hangin giler, I takut kipas tu habis. Hehe. Tapi sampai kedai tu, oh ada byk rupanya dia jual and kedai sebelah pon ada jual. Hehe syukurrr. I was so excited to show the fan to my husband. When I handed the battery fan to Imran, wah senyum lebar Imran. Cepat-cepat pasang. Lepas tu, Ichiro continue to sleep and woke up masa ada show “para-motor” .

Ichiro face expression when watching the paramotor (abaikan expression si ayah)

Ichiro was so excited tgk benda tu, sampai kejang-kejang and I was so happy then finally Imran agreed that our trip to the fest is worthwhile. Sbb anak kesayangan dia happy tgk macam-macam benda. Sudahnyer kiterorg sampai pukul 6 dekat sana and cam whoring , sampai dengan polis pon kiterorg amik gambar. Hahaha. Ok, enjoy the pics! No hot air balloon photos, I pon tatau kenapa diaorg tanak buat show, diaorg kata weather tk mengizinkan, cam too windy.

I edit this photo using "vintage" action and added texture

This is the original photo, Ichiro mcm tk rela sket, sbb dia sibuk nk keluar dari stroller

Ada macam cerita Mr Bean tak? Yg balloon terbangkan pram baby tu?

Ichiro with clown panjang

There are actually 3 clowns in this picture - minus out Ichiro

Amacam? lomo tak?

Me and my little boy

Me (Ichiro enterframe jugak kt belakang tu)

Ichiro smiling happily

Dengan polis...ehe

Traffic stopper

Ichiro eats everything! Including the stroller

Few last shots before leaving Putrajaya

Last shot with kites, you doing good son , muahssss

All photos were taken using Nokia N95 camera handphone. I was kinda lazy to bring my DLSR and to carry it under the hot sun.

Few more photos for the aqiqah ceremony as promised. Just received a photo cd from the photographer and goshhh there are about 400++ pictures in the cd, hence I just select a few to be publish on my blog. Too many , I can’t upload it all here, pening nk resize bagai. Enjoy the photos!

Bunga rampai harum sungguh, rasa mcm kt bali

Ichiro tanak tgk kamera

Getting ready Hai son!

Tengah buat joke, sendiri buat lawak,sendiri ketawa besar..haha sengal

Stim, gigit jam daddy

Ichiro tk reti dok diam ok. Tgk muka I berkerut semacam , imran dok nk rasuah Ichiro dgn cushion..haha classic!

Oh I love this pic! Tgk baju baby, cute kan? Ada ribbon besar! heart it

Gerammmmmnyeeeeee! Cium sampai penyek hidung

Comel nyer baby girl, can’t wait for my turn dapat baby gal plak..hihi

Alisha mcm nk flying kick Ichiro. Ichiro maintain stim gigit jam tk habis2. Huhu

With marhaban group

Aqiqah – Part 1

Alhamdulillah aqiqah kenduri went so well. Ichiro was kinda on adrenalin rush on that day, he didn’t really want to sleep, mcm excited nk main. He managed to take few minutes nap through out the day tho. The longest he slept about 2 hours before the Marhaban group perform.

While waiting for the “cukur jambul” session, Ichiro and the newborn berak ok, both at the same time. Arghhh Haha. So kiterorg pon sibuk berkungfu nk cuci our babies, with our white attire it made things more challenging for us. Karang tk pasal2 terpalit2. Dah la Ichiro siap nk makan paip sekarang ni. Glad that we managed to clean up Ichiro’s bottom without jeopardizing our attire.

Grandma to Ichiro loves red so much, that’s explain why both babies were in RED [not because of CNY] Me and Imran would love to thank Hani and Mama for the shirt that they bought for Ichiro [at first I thot it was a GUESS, huhu lawa! turned out it is PONEY] and lovely gown for Alisya. I like it so much until I think I wanna be a baby also so that I could wear that little red riding hood gown The gown is tailored made for Alisya because grandma said she can’t find any beautiful gown for newborn with the right material [girl gown usually using organza material]. Baby won’t feel comfortable wearing organza. Yeah, I do agree with that and Alisya gown is so flowing. Love it! Opps no picture for the babies with red outfit, none taken by my camera. Need to wait for the picture from photographer.

Cukur jambul session went pretty fast. Tkder ramai pon yg kasi Ichiro free hair cut since Ichiro is a big boy already, so he doesn’t like people man handle him. I was rather thankful too, sbb tkder la rambut my son botak tk sekata. Ehe. Alisya pon cranky, tk suka and rimas kot.

Straight after that, jamuan makan2 bermula. Our son dah start berpeluh-peluh pakai corduroy and shirt. Hehe. Wpun berat hati nk tukar baju dia yg hensem tu, we hafto jugak sbb kesian tgk dia rasa tk bebas sbb terlalu kacak. Lepas tukar ligat balik la main.

I was also super excited to see my bloggers friends. Wanna thank you guys sbb sudi datang. Khai yg mula-mula sampai with his partner followed by the rest of  other bloggers Lina, Farah, Isma, Munirah, Ary and Am. Poor Puteri she didn’t manage to locate our house, perhaps next time I need to ask Imran to draw a better map.

Am and Farah. Am’s husband taking the photo, Farah’s husband eating satay at the back. Farah’s daughter nadrah and aqilah both in the picture too. Tanpa sedar ada 2 complete family dalam ini gambar

Am and Isma

Imran and Amir. Kawan dah lama since both of them were still schooling in Bukit Bintang Boys School. Amir got a twin brother. The world is indeed small, happen to be Amir’s twin brother Amin was actually my Science Muar schoolmate and ehem he is my old crush. Huhuh. But, I think he never noticed me anyway. Huhu.I dulu mcm invisible.

Lina [purple ] , Ary & Nas [middle] and Farah + baby [tangan farah cam laju giler suap mulut..hihi] Ary baru jer gave birth to Rafael. Does she looks like she just giving birth? Baru 2 bulan. Damnn. Tk aci. She and her husband is actually my direct upline in Usana.

Group picture with all the bloggers, lawa tak kasut I? Hehe. Cuba cari mana Ichiro? Baju I pakai tu dah terlalu longgar for me, am still appear chubby wearing it. Maybe because of the size, will show later how big the baju for me. Baju tu sebenarnya kebaya, but now dh jadi kebarung. Huhu.

Ichiro yg curious. Suruh kiss, gi tarik telinga pulak. Nasib baik Syirah cool jer.

Isma and partner Isma next time u boleh bawak ur dad sekali ok Isma ni downline Usana I. Masa nk beli Usana, email i tk berhenti2 sampai nk pecah inbox haku. Ada 50 email kot ? [hahah exaggerate sudah tentu] Sebaik beli ok, kalau tak confirm I hangennn. Haha. But not bad, dia pon antara distributor yg sangat rajin jugak Tahukah anda adik Isma adalah pemain badminton Malaysia? Hehe sbb tu beli Usana dulu, utk adik dia.

Khai and Tini. Yer khai adalah lelaki and he reads my blog. But I think my blog ni unisex la. We know each other via blog for several years dah. Dah 5 years ke eh Khai? Neway, I like Tini, mcm dh 10 tahun kenal. She’s very very friendly and bubbly. Ok Khai, meh bawak masuk Usana. Bagus org2 peramah mcm Tini ni, apa pon boleh jual Me and Khai actually has one thing in common We love politic so much, I still remember masa PRU, Khai dok sms kt I lapor bilangan undi. Haha. Ada rupa YB tak Khai ni?

This is Lina. Lina ni mcm kejap ada kejap takder. But normally bila I invite keluar dinner or meet up, dia selalu ada. Itu la bagusnya Lina ni Get to know her via blog also. Pon dah about 5 years. Sejak I baru kahwin. Sejak dia duduk Dublin, Ireland, kahwin and dah balik mesia balik. Hehe, how’s time flies eh. Hobby dia dari tulis advert dekat blog, sampai la buat scrap book, beli kamera lomo dekat Ebay and sekarang dh expert amik gambar wedding guna lomo. Haa dashat tk dashat?

Ini Am. First time jumpa dia and baru jer kenal kt blog masa I buat entry invitation aqiqah tu. Hehe. Tapi cool! Dia dpt datang and I adalah jakun ok. Hihih. Tapi tk dpt borak banyak2 sbb, she was among yg sampai and balik awal Hehe. Kesian hubby dia dh penat, but Am, next time I jemput datang lagi yer Syirah budak paling cool I pernah jumpa.

Ini Munirah dgn Uzair. Malas cerita pasal Munirah, sbb cam semua org kenal dia. Huhu.

It always facinate me to see kid yg pandai makan. Hope Ichiro nnt pon senang nk makan. Uzair makan mee kari and mushroom soup. Tiba2 lapar tgk gambar uzair ni. Dush!

Ni western corner ada chicken chop

The food was not that good. It wasn’t our first time with the caterer neway, it has been many many many times. Tapi utk kali ni dgn mee kari yg so-so and kambing roasted yg liat, hmm I think she [the caterer] could do better. But, I love the ais kacang and western corner tho. Normally lauk kambing, she will cook rendang kambing berkuah or entah apa la nama dia, mmg sedap sampai u akan sedut sum-sum tulang kambing tu. Mmg leleh la. Tapi since kali ni Hani mcm nk rasa kambing pangang, so she ordered that la. Last-last menyesal. Hahah. But, it wasn’t that bad, it just that liat. Saper yg gigi kuat sure menikmati dgn aman.

Pantang lalu dekat Ais Kacang corner ni, sure mintak satu, 5 kali lalu, 5 kali order

But, it was fun. Kiteorg melepak makan sampai kol 9 malam. Rasa macam melepak dekat mamak or warung-warung. And caterer tu pon willing to wait until we betul-betul dah surrender makan. Hehe. I asik dok order ais kacang tk berhenti-henti. Ahhh gumuksssss! I think I ate 5 bowl altogether. Goshhh.

More piccies of the kenduri soon!

Update: despite kambing and 5 mangkuk ais kacang, I weigh 50.5kg today. Yup getting closer to my target! I’m only shy about 4.5kg to my dream weight.
