:: 17th December 2009 :: - Part 2 ~~ Opah's Birthday Celebration ~~ -

so..this is the second part of the Danias activities on this particular date... :o) (yeah...mama has told u...that u guys were pretty busy on this day..)

after we reached at gombak..not long after that..uncle pis..came to gombak as well..with a big cake for opah...actually..the celebration..was not actually..really really sort of a birthday celebration..it's just that..uncle pis dah bawak cake..n we all pun baru jer nak lunch..so..it looked like a small birthday celebration...

uncle pis gave a present to opah..but mama, arissa n aryana didn't manage to get anything for opah..just wishes only...errkksss..takper laa..we'll get something for opah later okay..heheh..

..and arissa did sing a birthday song for opah...

:: 17th December 2009 :: - Part 1 ~~ Dora the Explorer ~~ -

On this day...The Danias were pretty busy..first....a meet up with 'Dora the Explorer'...second..opah's birthday bash (some sort...)

:: Meet Up with Dora the Explorer ::

As early as 10:30am..we went out from the house...the original plan was..the whole gang keluar skali..(mama, arissa, aryana, opah n atuk)...but then..pagi2 tuh..opah kata..dia macam pening kepala..so..at FIRST..we decided..opah n aryana stayed at home...but then..when mama, arissa n atuk were about to go out...suddenly..aryana pun nak ikut skali..dah nangis2 nak ikut atuk...so..at LAST..we decided to bring aryana along..bukannya apa..mama takut kalau bawak aryana with just mama n atuk, takder opah skali...takut tak menang tangan..but bila tengok muka aryana tuh..macam kesian pulak..so..gamble jer laaa..bawak laaa aryana skali..sian opah...tinggal sorang2.....

then..sampai kat 1Utama tu..sedang2 elok..pukul 11am...we went straight to the place..and see how's the place..tengok..mula2..takder laaa ramai sangat..so..sempat laaa..arissa n aryana hanging around kat situ kejap..dapat laaa sorang satu tattoo kat tangan, arissa pulak..dapat laaa main basketball tu (tapi satu pun tak masuk..heeh)...then..ada one big box ni...that u have to get inside and grab as many papers as u can..mama try laa masukkan arissa dalam tuh...but arissa just stand still..and tak buat apa2..so..arissa kinda kena kick-out from there..errkksss..

so...sementara nak tunggu Dora datang..since there was free coffees @ starbucks...mama n atuk managed to enjoyed the coffees (yummy..sluurrrppp..the coffee was good!)...

Then..at about noon..mama n arissa went to the place again..(at time hour..aryana dah tido..)...

while waiting for Dora..they have some activities..so arissa join laaa aktiviti mewarna tuh..

at about 12:45pm...they announced that we had to get the photo passes for us to take a picture with Dora...and yet..we had to wait..until 1pm to meet Dora...so..while waiting..they had some interactions with the kids...mm...

waiting..waiting..waiting..here comes.... DORA THE EXPLORER...

(spot the difference?)

but..mama thinks..the waiting is not worthwhile the time with Dora..meaning that..the appearance of Dora was way too short...arissa kept saying..nak jumpa dora..nak jumpa dora...BUT..arissa managed to get 2 photo shoots..hehe..and they gave free printed photos..yay!!

oohhh..by the way..being among the so called 100 first persons..we managed to get free gifts..which include a t-shirt (which is wayyyy toooo big for either arissa or aryana), one activity book, and one some sort of magazine?

aahhh..we went back home..right after the photo shoots...so..about 2 something we reached home...so..arissa's and aryana's activity..was just meeting up with Dora the Explorer..(but for aryana..meet up with Dora in her dream...zzz...yang lawaknya..sebaik nak balik..BARU laaa aryana terjaga...mmm..)

PlayTime @ iKaNo :: 15th Dec 2009 ::

~~ Today..it's another Danias' Day Out!! Yay!! ~~

This time around..we go jalan2 at Ikano..near that Ikea...

This place kat Ikano nih...in mama's opinion..is not so much fun..bcos..not so much play thing that you can enjoy there..the place is just a one-corner place..with few slides, a big blown-up, some sort of a castle..and a place you can sit around and do a bit of art work..(which is not yet suitable for arissa n aryana)...

During the time there..arissa n aryana..just played at that one slide (yg kecik sikit tuh)...and then..the house yg small tuh...that blown-up castle tuh..arissa n aryana mcm tak berani nak masuk pun..arissa did try nak climb up on the slide from inside..but she decided not to go...she said..takut..mm..so..they ended up..playing around there jer...

After while..both arissa n aryana...dah get bored..sibuk tengok the big elephant, giraffe and panda nyer ride tuh...but mama thought..that things are too big for their sizes..kinda thing that you have to step on the pedal..and manoeuvre the thing using the steering...

Then, we went to ikea...but that time..arissa n aryana were a bit tired already..everyone gave a bit of not so good attitude...time nak lunch tuh..aryana pun dah lapa..and so did arissa..they ended up..drank their susu...and not so much of lunch to eat...in fact, aryana pun..dah tido..by the time the food was there... ( ramai sgt pulak org during lunch time kat cafe dia tuh, this time..not like before..)

so here are some of the pics...

...and a video...

* 3rd December 2009 *

After a day of resting at home @ Gombak...today..mama thought of bringing Arissa n Aryana to Kidzsport & Gym at 1Utama (old wing)...before this..we usually went to Kidsgym (as refer by Arissa) at Great Eastern Mall..but this time around..mama rasa macam nak try different place..itu pun after that one outing at 1Utama tuh..mama ternampak that same place..since Atok pun kata dia dah lama tak pergi 1Utama n dia pun teringin nak pergi sana..so...that's where we went to have some fun...yippiieee..

At about 10:30am..we reached at 1Utama..we parked the car at the old wing...parking pun tempat yg open tuh..jarang sekali dapat parking situ..but since tadi memang tak byk org lagih..so we decided to park there...sampai2 jer kat 1Utama..we went straight to the place..

On the way to the place...singgah japs kat promotion area kat tgh2 1Utama tuh...Arissa kept saying 'mama, susu arissa...susu arissa..' Ada laaa tempat bergambar tuh..so..here's the pic...

That place was way bigger than the one in GE..it was a nice place..lots of spaces for the danias to move around...mama personally like that place very much.. :o)

Anyway..sampai2 jer..Arissa yg dah biasa ngan places like that..dah tak sabar2 nak main..terus2..nampak pool of balls tuh..terus dia pergi sana...

Aryana pulak...yg masih belum biasa to these kind of places..macam ragu2 jer nak main..but Aryana kept following her sis Arissa..but after some time..dia dah get used to the place..suka dia main kat that place..and there is a place yang utk all the 3yo & below kids..so..that's where Aryana played...

Aryana..penat sangat..sampai sempat tido..dah mengantuk sgt..sian dia...but sis Arissa..still tak penat2...dia masih lagih energetic tuh...but since Aryana dah tido..(mama pulak lupa nak bawak stroller..) ..so we decided to call it off at 1pm..but sis Arissa being a good girl..she seems okay with the idea (and maybe..bcos...she too were tired..)..sampai nak keluar from that place pun..mintak dukung..(Arissa dah berat laaa..nak dukung lagih? at this moment..Arissa weight is like 15kg)..

After main2...we went to have our lunch..at Seoul Garden..yummy..yummy..and we went back to Gombak at about 3pm..(mkn sampai 2hrs? hehehe..buffet..u know laaa..)

But amazingly..sampai rumah..dah mandi semua..Arissa still tak mau tido..Aryana jer tido jugak laaa...mm...tahan betul mata sis Arissa nih..ker..dia nak lawan rasa mengantuk dia...??

Rides...and more rides....

✿ 1 December 2009 ✿

* the school holidays have started * ~~ that means...mama , arissa n aryana will be spending the hols @ KL ...that also means..jalan2 for u girls.. ~~

today..the first activity that we do..is jalan2 @ tesco selayang...the main agenda to go there was to buy some stuffs for u girls...such as diapers..shower gel...and what not...

sambil2 buy those stuffs...oohh..by the way..we went there with opah n atuk, as well...

so..after buy those stuffs (and to mama's annoyance..tesco...as usual..ada aje brg yg takder tag..so..mama didn't manage to buy arissa's panties..and there went, mama's grumbling at the cashier..errkkss ^_^ )...we went to have our lunch....but before we went for lunch..while going to the ladies..arissa dah nampak tempat main2 tuh..so..as usual..mama has to use the terms & conditions (as mama call it)..to make arissa takes her lunch...heheh..n guess what is the T&C? yup..."makan nasik dulu..before main"...hehehe...so..arissa..knowing her anticipation..kept telling mama to have her nasik..mmm...so..after makan tuh..(and arissa did makan...oohh..btw..aryana..before makan tuh..she was sleeping..right before we finished our lunch..dia bgn jugak laa..dapat jugak laaa dia makan...)...mama n arissa went to the tempat main2 tuh..(atuk, opah n aryana..still had their lunch)...

well..one thing about the rides kat tesco tuh...were not too bad...n mama thinks...it was a good deal...(RM10 for 12 rides)...yang bestnyer..most of the things kat situ..semua 1 token per ride..except for the ride yg cawan2 tuh..(and mama suka ride yg cawan2 tuh..)...so..puas jugak laaa arissa n aryana naik rides tu...

and here are some of the selected pictures...

* this is mama's fav*

Happy Birthday Aryana. You are 1 today

Today is Aryana's birthday. We still remember clearly the events that lead to the birth of Aryana. Papa was in the labor room when miracle takes its course. I could clearly see something that looks like a black sponge and that poops!!..just imagine a wet soap popping out from your grip.

Okaylah Aryana, today is your birthday, So we, as a family would like to wish you Happy Birthday. You are ONE year old today. Be good. Tonight we are going to have a simple and small birthday party...just us.

Arissa visit Tadika Dzuliman

Hari Rabu 9/9/09 lepas ambik Aryana dan Arissa dari taska, kita semua pergi Tadika Dzuliman di Desa Tronoh. Ramai orang recommend Tadika tu so, kita pergi nak check it out. Arissa pun for the first time visit lah tadika tu for the first time. Kira macam tadika pertama Arissa lah. Arissa kan next year 4 years old. Dah boleh masuk tadika dah. So far puas hati lah dengan tadika tu. The fees look affordable and the curriculum looks good too.
