Imani Hafiyya, 20 months old

Assalamualaikum, 

My baby girl, Imani Hafiyya is turning 20 months soon. 

I still ingat dia macam baby-baby yang kecik. 

I still treat her like that. dukung macam baby sambil baring (sometime la). 

Maybe because dia belum nak jadi kakak lagi. 

Kadang-kadang I lupa yg she's going to be two in few months. Only when she throw her tantrums, I realize, soon, very soon..she's going to reveal her "Terrible Two". 

Kena banyak bersabar nak melalui fasa ni. Persedian minda dan fizikal kena kuat. chewah, macam nak pergi berjuang di medan perang pulak ayat. 

Tapi nak make sure kesabaran sentiasa tinggi dan suara tak marah-marah bila Imani mula mengamuk dan cari attention dengan cara buat salah. 

Tak kisah la macam mana pun, she is still my princess. 

Sweet and adorable. 

But very masam. even though mandi dah sabun and shampoo wangi2. 

Kuat berpeluh budak ni. 

That's why berat badan susah nak naik. 

Sekarang tgh demam pulak. 

Kahak banyak. 

Dah cuba teknik lemon and garlic socks. 

tak berapa berkesan. Imani jarang sangat demam. 

bila demam selalunya berkaitan nak tumbuh gigi. 

tak tahu la kali ni nak tumbuh geraham la harapnya. 

risau jugak..

That's her insisted to front carry her baby. 

Kata orang, mak borek anak rintik. 

I think she has many of my characters. 

Dia suka dikendong dalam baby carrier. 

So, she did the same to her 'baby'.

Pantang nampak kain napkin tu, mesti request suruh ikat dekat badan dia. 

Sometime, request nak buat back carry lagi. 

Cubaan nak buat gaya 'peace' tak pernah menjadi lagi. 

Tok wan always said, Imani kena practise buat 'peace'.

Another gaya umi yang dia suka copy cat. 

Cuba menyusukan 'baby'dia. 

Lawak sangat masa first time tengok gaya dia ni. 

Well, betul la kot orang cakap, breastfeed babies always breastfeed their babies. 

InsyaAllah. 

She is still 80% depending on my breast milk.   Setiap hari mungkin 1-2 botol sahaja susu formula. 

Masih dalam proses transition untuk weaning off. 

Tapi slowly, tak nak mengejut both for myself and for her. 

At the moment, she can speaks few words clearly. She tries to create sentence by combining some words like 

Juju (susu) adik ama (sama) bila tengok iklan Anmum di TV. 

Abbit (rabbit) alik (balik) mah (rumah) bila tengok lukisan di dalam buku cerita

Aju (baju) incess (princess) adik 

She has curly hair. Just like me when I was at her age. Except that I was chubbier and my hair was thicker compare to hers. 

Harapan umi and ayah, Imani membesar jadi anak solehah, sihat tubuh dan badan, akal dan fikiran. 

We always pray for you and your brother. 

Love,

Umi
