Mateen's First Vacation

So during my second trimester, Tila ada pergi Avani Sepang Gold Coast untuk relax kan diri sebab time pregnant kerap rasa stress dan penat. At that time, tak fikir panjang. Masuk je gaji, terus book through Traveloka sebab they offer a very good price for the room and breakfast. I will make another post on the tricks to get the cheapest bargain on hotels and flights. Last weekend my aunty sponsor the whole family to stay for two nights. Alhamdulillah, Thank you Mak Teh & Pak Teh. Semoga dimurahkan rezeki selalu. I always enjoy Avani, the place is so peaceful. Bangun pagi dengar bunyi laut, bau air laut and angin laut sepoi sepoi masuk. Oh my, kena repeat lagi ni. 

Kisah nak pack untuk vacation ni sangat kelakar, at first i packed 5 bags for me, husband & mateen. Tila tak puas hati kenapa banyak sangat bag, so i took a bigger bag and fit everything in it. So bawa dua bag tarik instead of 5 bag. Yeah Ibu bijak this time. I made a mistake by separating everything into smaller bag. Konon nak one bag specific for diapers, one bag for toys. Macam tu la but i find that it was a ridiculous idea. Haha first time vacation so i jadi blur how to pack. 

Overall, I am happy that Mateen sangat lah behave and good boy. I never thought it would be this easy, my mom said the same thing. Mateen ni sejenis baby yang senang nak handle. Jenis tak melalak, menangis sebab nak susu je or nak sleep. Tu pun tangisan dia sangat lah halus, bukan jenis nyaring tu. 

What was the most important thing that really helped me during my stay was my gb pockit+ stroller, MAM bottle & Snapkis repellent patch. I am truly grateful that i have this things with me and I never regret getting a GB Pockit+ for Mateen (Thank you Tok Pa for the present). Here's why i love the three item i mentioned:

GB Pockit+ : its a compact stroller, my favourite travel companion. Fit in the car perfectly with spacious space for other stuff. Able to fit in the buggy seat during our visit to Avani. I always put mateen in the stroller when we're at a restaurant, the stoller didn't take much space and didn't disturb any movement in the restaurant. Hidup jangan susahkan orang, GB Pockit+ tak menyusahkan parents and orang sekeliling Haha

MAM Bottle : Now mateen bottle feed, I looked for a bottle yang mudah untuk uruskan. Lepas banyak research, tila jumpa terus berkenan dengan brand MAM. My mom said its quite expensive for a bottle but takpe lah invest untuk kesenangan masa depan. Botol MAM ni dia boleh buka base dia, means bawah botol tu nak cabut and basuh asing. Tila rasa that features memang dah amazing sebab mudah sangat proses nak basuh and sterilize botol.

Snapkis Repellent Patch : this one tila beli sebab comel. Haha but bila pakaikan dekat mateen, ibu pula rasa macam nak pakai juga. Bau dia sangat soothing and sedap, mateen tidur dengan lena bila pakai patch ni. Tila pun rasa tenang macam dekat spa je. Most importantly, mateen tak kena gigit nyamuk pun.

Next vacation pun tila akan make sure tiga item ni akan sentiasa ada dengan tila.

Kulit Merekah Lepas Bersalin

Salam & Hi semua,

Yes, kulit tila merekah selepas bersalin. Keluar je daripada operation room, memang dah start kering and merekah sampai rasa macam bersalin kulit. Serious pedih sangat kulit masa tu. Tak berani nak cuci muka or letak apa apa. Biar kulit habis mengelupas baru tila fikir nak buat apa dengan muka ni. Settle je pantang, tila start google on tips macam mana nak betulkan kulit ni. Mulanya nak buat natural remedies but kulit tila tak ada perubahan kalau buat natural remedies. Kulit makin kering, tila try survey produk pula.

Setelah berminggu tahan dengan kulit kering ni, tila decide untuk try produk Cosmoderm. Alhamdulillah kulit tila dah kurang kering. It's still dry tapi dah 70% kurang kering dan dah tak merekah. I am extremely happy dengan perubahan ni. Now tinggal parut je sikit, parut tu sebab tila garu kulit tila sampai luka. Silap sendiri, tapi bila kulit kering rasa gatal tu teramat lah sangat and tangan ni cepat je garu garu. Sabar lah tila.. Insyaallah akan okay nanti. 

First tila guna Vitamin E Cream 3,000 I.U, pakai seminggu time pagi and malam. Walaupun seminggu pakai, tapi kulit terasa lembab sentiasa and yang merekah terus hilang. Vitamin E bantu untuk hilangkan parut, memang bagus untuk parut parut tila ni. After two weeks pakai Vitamin E ni, Tila pakai yang gentle sikit sebab Vitamin E tu strong juga. Tila switch to Gentle Day Moisturiser, memang tak menyesal tukar. Series gentle lagi better and tak terlalu intense untuk mereka yang ada kulit sensitif. Now tila memang maintain gentle day moisturizer je, alhamdulillah dah sebulan pakai and i am very happy with the result. Tila akan listkan product description dekat bawah.

January 2019 ; Hobonichi & Mini Happy Planner Flipthrough

Salam & Hi everyone,

I finished my January setup for both  hobonichi & mini happy planner. My first flip-through for 2019 and i am very happy with my setup for January. Cant wait to finish my February setup to finish and i will make another video on it or maybe make a plan with me video. I will try to find the space and time for it.  

I used my mini happy planner for my daily to do, while my hobonichi techo is used for daily journaling. My new year resolution is to have a writing routine. To improve my writing and helps to make me think creatively. And yes, it works and i am loving how i write now. I can write longer than before with a content. Sometimes if i don't have a topic to write about, i would find a topic in my writing challenge and would write about it. 

Here how i try to develop my writing skills. 5 routine to develop a good writing habits:

1. Make writing a priority. No one can do everything, but life is a matter of priorities. If you cant write long, make a list of things you need to do daily. 
2. Figure out what motivates you to write. I use writing as a method for me to let go of my feelings. How i feel each day, and of course others stuff. 
3. Set a goal but start small. A little bit more than what you’re doing right now, but not so much that you’ll get exhausted and give up. 
4. Set rewards. Rewards are a great motivators, every end of the month i would reward myself with a flip-through. Its very satisfying. I would consider other rewards, maybe i would make a list of reward before i start to write. 
5. Take a break. Well, i skipped few days sometimes. Just to rest and clear my head before writing but i will list down everything in my on the go planner. Just in case i forgot what i did or happen on the day that i skipped writing. 

Things i used in my happy planner is as listed down below:

My 2019 Planner Line Up

Salam & Hello everyone,

Post harini Tila nak introduce planner planner yang akan digunakan untuk tahun 2019. Normally I would use only one planner for a year but this year, I want to try something different. To separate the uses for my planners. For 2019, Tila ada 6 planner. Let's list them all out.

My 2019 Planner Line Up

1. Hobonichi 5-Year Techo 
2. Hobonichi Techo Planner Book 
3. The Mini Happy Planner Socialite (Minta tolong kawan belikan dekat US)
4. DIY Mini Happy Planner (Recycle cover & dics lama, insert buat sendiri)
5. Personal Ring Binder by Yardleathersmith 
6. Muji A5 Vertical 2019 Planner (Beli dekat Muji Sunway Pyramid)

I never used this much. It will really be a challenge for me and I really need to plan my time to occupied all the planner. So, here I would explain all the uses for each planner that i'll be using. I really hope my office room would be ready soon, boleh lah nak ber "me-time" nanti dekat rumah baru. Kalau tak, atas katil saja lah macam tak biasa pulak.

Hobonichi 5-Year Techo - I will be using this planner for memory keeping. Planner ni kegunaan dia untuk 5 tahun. So, dia start 2019 hingga 2023. One page for daily but there are 5 rows representing each year. Harap Tila consistent untuk siapkan 5 tahun ni. Memory keeping in writing, Insyaallah. 

Hobonichi Techo Planner Book - Daily writing. Lebih kepada menulis daripada decoration. Bila kita menulis hari hari, idea akan sentiasa ada. Dah 38 hari Tila consistent tulis dalam planner ni and Tila nampak perbezaan dia. Cara tila menulis pun makin better and idea mencurah curah. Kalau takde topik or hari tu boring je, Tila akan baca article and tulis summary dalam page tu. Write or draw anything, jangan biarkan page tu kosong.

The Mini Happy Planner Socialite - This one Tila guna untuk daily juga but more to bullet style. List down apa aktiviti harini, apa yang perlu dibuat (to do list) and any pembelian online tila. Happy Planner Mini ni Tila lebih kepada decoration. Nak bagi ada mood tengok planner lawa lawa. 

DIY Mini Happy Planner - Disebabkan mini happy planner ni tak lawa pakai large dics, Tila terpaksa buat satu lagi mini happy planner untuk challenge & projects. Inserts dalam dia Tila buat sendiri pakai powerpoint, then potong ikut size dia and tebuk je. Tila memang ada puncher happy planner, hadiah daripada husband dua tahun lepas sebab dia nak encourage Tila berplanner. Dialah yang suruh tila beli happy planner dulu. That was my first planner. 

Personal Ring Binder by Yardleathersmith -  I would like to use this one also for memory keeping but more on photos and scrapbooking. I always wanted to try scrapbooking but they would usually use a binder. I find it too big to use a binder, so i start making one with a personal size. 

Muji A5 Vertical 2019 Planner - On the go planner, memang letak dalam handbag je planner ni. Semua benda diconteng dalam planner ni, dah balik kerja baru sort out in which planner the information belong. Senang macam ni, atleast takde any information tertinggal. Al-maklum lah sejak lepas bersalin ni makin pelupa pulak.

Dinner @ Damai Steamboat & Ikan Bakar

Salam & Hi my lovely readers,

Masa cuti chinese new year haritu tila and husband decide untuk pergi rumah parkland, nak kemas kemas barang dekat sana sebelum kami betul betul pindah. Supaya nanti time pindah, tak ada lah banyak sangat benda tila nak kena mengemas. hehe. Susah nak kemas lama lama sebab mateen kejap kejap dia boring and merengek. So untuk memastikan tila ada banyak masa mengemas, tila bawa tasha (my sister) sekali this time. Lagipun dia tak pernah lagi datang rumah parkland kami. 

Target kami untuk kemas dapur, stor and study room. Alhamdulillah banyak dapat kemas haritu, tinggal sikit je lagi barang nak kemas and susun. Next time datang nak kemas barang barang tu. Tak sabar nak habis kemaskan everything, boleh senang lenang je nanti kalau dah kemas. My parents and mak su datang untuk visit kami mengemas, so we decided untuk pergi dinner together. Mulanya nak pergi thai restaurant then suddenly teringat kedai steamboat dekat area sijangkang. Never been there but mak su pernah pergi makan sana. 

Damai Steamboat & Ikan Bakar

I must say, sangat menarik and sedap makanan dekat sini. Ada nasi goreng, mee goreng, laksa, nasi lemak and banyak lah readymade food. Untuk steamboat & grill pula ada ikan, ayam, daging, kambing and other seafood family. hehe marinate yang dorang guna pun sangat sedap especially untuk daging and kambing dia. 

Tempat makan dia sangat selesa and lapang. Parking ada dekat belakang and depan kedai ni, so tak ada lah kereta parking merata. Staff dia sangat friendly and cekap. The food selalu bertutup, so memang tak ada lalat. I dont like some other restaurant yang tak tutup food dia. Harga buffet pun sangat lah murah, berbaloi dengan makanan yang dihidangkan. I will definitely come again. Nak makan kambing and daging dia lagi. 

List Harga Buffet @ Damai Steamboat & Ikan Bakar 

• Dewasa : RM 26.50
• Kanak kanak (8 - 12 tahun) : RM14.90
• Warga Emas (60 tahun ke atas) : RM 14.90

*Kanak kanak 7 tahun ke bawah makan percuma. Dinasihatkan telefon untuk reservation sebab selalu fully book dekat sini. Haritu pun meja penuh dengan reservation note. 

Alamat Kedai : Lorong Haji Husin, Kampung Sijangkang, 42500 Telok Panglima Garang, Selangor.

No Telefon : 012 666 3990

Why I Choose Audelia Natural for Baby Mateen?

Salam & Hi sayang semua,

Harini tila nak share satu product yang tila dah pakaikan dekat mateen sejak dalam pantang lagi. Why tila pakaikan Audelia Natural masa dalam pantang? Baby mateen ada bunyi bunyi dekat hidung dia macam nak selesema but its not. Tila bawa pergi klinik and doktor kata memang normal berbunyi sebab lubang hidung dia masih sempit but jaga elok elok sebab kalau dia flu akan jadi lagi teruk. So to prevent mateen flu, tila google macam macam cara and even consult dengan parents tila.

Before deciding to use Audelia Natural memang tila consult dengan mama tila dulu. Dia kata okay, baru lah tila order. So my first product with Audelia Natural was Sniffles. Sniffles ni dia congestion relief, works to prevent and relief congestion. Alhamdulillah, bernafas pun kurang bunyi and muka dia pun nampak relief sangat. Sampai sekarang memang tila pakai sniffles. One bottle sniffles tahan sampai sekarang, mateen dah 3 bulan. Maybe next month baru kena top up sniffles dekat agent favourite tila, sis nana. Dia COD sampai depan rumah tau. Masa dalam pantang tu rasa syukur sangat sebab sis nana boleh tolong hantarkan.

Ibu is very happy with this product, so i bought my second EO with Audelia Naturals. Tila cuba immunity on mateen. Immunity ni best sangat bau dia, function dia more untuk immune booster. Prevent daripada any germs and sakit sakit. Before mateen start taska, tila dah start apply immunity sebab dekat taska kita tak tahu macam mana tahap kesihatan budak budak lain. To me, better prevent sebelum benda yang tak diingini terjadi.

Alhamdulillah, mateen loves his oiling session everytime lepas mandi. Immunity ni kena sapu atau massage dekat belakang badan baby and tapak kaki baby. Dekat tapak kaki tu struggle sikit sebab dia geli geli dekat situ. Immunity ni pun sama dengan Sniffles, sebotol tahan lama. Harga each bottle is RM39 but if you buy Rescue Kit (ada 4 bottle) is cheaper. Dalam Rescue Kit ada 4 jenis blend which are Sniffles, Immunity, Bedtime & Tummy. Tila tak pakaikan mateen Bedtime sebab si kenit ni tidur okay waktu malam. Review yang guna bedtime for their kid, memang budak mudah tidur bila bau EO blend ni. Maybe if one day mateen ada problem nak sleep baru tila akan try. For now I am very happy with his nap time, ibu and abah pun tenang tidur malam now. Thank you Mateen, for being such a good boy.

Salted Egg Prawn with Nurell Foods

Salam & Hi semua,

Harini nak cerita pasal mengidam salted egg lepas habis pantang. Hehe. Time pregnant ada list mengidam, lepas habis pantang pun ada list okay. Teringin sangat nak makan salted egg, jadi tila decide untuk masak sendiri. Cuma lecehnya fikir nak kena kopek telur masin untuk dapatkan telur kuning dia. Biasalah, i am always malas nak buat benda benda macam ni. Tibe tibe dekat group staff office ada agent Nurell Foods Salted Egg Paste, rezeki jatuh dari langit. Terus order and suruh husband ambilkan. Punya lah tak sabar kan. Lepas dah dapat, bercinta jugak lah nak tunggu ada masa untuk masak sendiri sebab mama tak pernah masak salted egg. So tunggu hari si kenit tu behave and sleep. Dapat juga masak and memang awesome betul paste daripada Nurell Foods ni. Dia punya rasa salted egg tu sangat rich and guna sikit pun cukup. Satu paket boleh guna untuk masak banyak kali. 

Tila masak, snap gambar and post dekat IG sebab nak review product yang best ni. Then terbuka IG Nurell Foods, rupanya dorang tengah ada contest Eat.Shoot&Share. Kita pun apa lagi, terus join and alhamdulillah tila menang 3rd prize. One of my 2019 goals is to win any contest or giveaway. Alhamdulillah awal tahun satu goals dah tercapai. Rezeki mateen ni. My husband macam biasa, being himself and ingatkan wife dia kena scam. Bila oven dah sampai baru dia percaya. Yeah!!

Actually tila memang plan nak beli electric oven untuk rumah baru sebab nak bake dengan mateen bila dia dah besar nanti. Teringat dulu masa kecil, mama rajin bake dengan tila and adik. buat pizza sendiri, muffin sendiri. Macam macam lah mama buat untuk spend time dengan kami berdua. Ibu akan try buat macam macam dengan mateen ye. 

Kalau nak beli salted egg paste ni boleh contact kawan tila dekat ig @najeeha_salleh  or their official ig @saltedeggpaste
