Baby Furqan

One year has passed by very fast. I still remembered well last 12 months, I am still in confinement and the riots started to kick in with 3 kids during the June holiday! But I still feel happy and contented. The feeling is so overwhelmed with a mix feelings.

So much I have been rantings and ramblings about the oldest two boys, yet so little have been mentioned about Baby fur, thou his milestone is steadily healthy and constant.

Getting pregnant with Furqan was a breeze, I must admit all the times. I was very much independent, without Rid to get around most times. And caring for the oldest two kids when Rid is not at home during the night time. I can't put aside the feeling that I am lonely without him during most nights but I am lucky as I felt protected by my two oldest heroes tucking in with me most days. And of course my work online kept me occupied so the loneliness is out of my dictionary. Oh no! Not that anything about Rid is not in the family picture, he is around most time too, except for certain night times where he has other work to do. And I believe due to this independency period, at the same time Baby Fur has practised well inside my womb! He seems to be very independent, moving around the house without assistance thou I glued my eyes on him almost 24/7 to avoid house injuries.

Baby Furqan has his 1st tooth when he is almost 2.5mths which is the fastest among my older two kids. And it didnt stop there, his teeth keep on growing and growing one after another. It seems so fast that we were abit taken aback by the suprise. He seems to explore on things faster. Maybe as he moves around the house and watch how his elder brothers do things. He even knew how to hold a crayon or pencil properly and scribble on a paper!

And, Baby Furqan do not cry unnecessarily. Period. Its the best that we can ask for. Well, experience do come in handy, wouldn't it?

Touch 13mths soon, Baby Furqan has reached his newest milestone of walking independently around the house. Well, he still crawls to get something fast, but he is such a cutety pie when he crawl. Looking at him, really reminded me of Sufi and Khair.

Baby Furqan is 4-in-1... Rid+Sufi+Khair+Furqan.

Baby Furqan 1st Birthday + Mothers Day gathering

Month of May will be busier every year now. We used to just celebrate Mothers Day & our courtship anniversary but now its going to be birthday celebration too for Furqan.

He turns 1yr old this week and we had a great celebration among loved ones. Since its the same week for Mothers Day, we decided to throw in the mood! Lots of goody bags, food, Barney Birthday Cake and Mothers Day mini-cupcakes. Its tasty!

Baby Furqan enjoyed it so much, he is not cranky nor grouchy at all thou he just got so agitated at me each time he tried to whack his birthday cake! Sooo adorable! We love you baby!

love equally

For past years Rid & I have been exercising equal attention on the two older boys. Trying still each & everyday. Especially when they are just two years apart, it was easy to spend time equally, quality ways. Its either way, I hangout with Sufi or another part with Khair. Sometimes it just happened that we switch roles on the attention job as much as we can so as not to make each one of them feel neglected.

Even when I went through the 3rd pregnancy phase, I still can managed paying attention to both of them equally. So far, as far as I am concerned, we have done a great job. Sometimes,  bring Sufi out for a short trip to the ColdStorage & do some fruits shopping or sometimes I bring Khair to the playground when Sufi was in a class. Most times, we spend crafty lessons & swimming together.

For now, since Baby Fur entered the family zone, I realised that time is never enough. Juggling the kids with my small tiny work & also the household. And not forgetting I need to spend quality time with Rid too, esp. Well, he is the 'man behind this tiny weeny lady' who is trying to be a SuperWife, SuperMom! hahhh! And so little time for myself. Any time that I have will be well-spent with routines.
And I find it so helpless, when I spend more time with either one of the boys & not the other. Which often is a case of indeliberately. I felt sad if I see either of them seating in a corner, sulking or simply just throwing tantrums to get 'our' attention.

Gosh!! I really need to learn from others a tip or two on how to spend time equally as best as I can. I do envy some stories who tried very hard & managed to do it with best result!!

Well, my situation are not in the critical stage nor it needs attention but I do not mind to improve on this.
