Aidan's First High Chair Experience

We went to Pizza Hut last Sunday.

It's getting more difficult to have mealtime toghether, i mean the three of us, since Aidan is now 6,5 mo, more aware and concious about whatever going on arround him. And eventually, more curious in everything he sees.

There's no way we can make him stay still for 5 seconds. He wants to explore every corner, every moving thing, just everything.

So, when i saw they have high chair for baby there, i was very happy. I've been waiting for weeks for the chance to sit Aidan in a high chair with the hope that he would sit there and enjoy the family lunch-out.

 I was a little bit doubt, actually. I wasn't so sure that Aidan could sit on the chair by himself. But i tried it anyway.

At first, he refused to sit. He wanted to carried arround the room. Watching many people, the ceiling fans, wall paintings and everything. Me and F took turns in doing it while the other one ate. But then, i was tired. So i tried to sit him again on the high chair. It works! Aidan sat there without being hold and ate his biscuit.

Not that still, of course. It seemed that he also interested to the chair. He tried to taste it too :D

Here's how he always moving and watching arround while sitting on the high chair.

He even tried to eat the camera :D

Baby Spa

Aidan sudah 6 bulan usianya. Selama 6 bulan ini juga belum pernah dipijat sama sekali. Maksud aku dipijat beneran dengan cara yang benar, bukan asal-asalan seperti yang aku lakukan. So, i decided to take him to Woman & Woman Spa. Katanya di situ ada baby spa juga. Hmm.. penasaran seperti apa jadinya kalau Aidan berenang :)

Dengan kamera di tangan, aku hapalin cara pijetnya. Hehehehe..

Konon, acara massage dan berenang ini bikin bayi lebih tenang, postur tubuhnya bagus, dan ototnya lebih kuat. Yang jelas, karena Aidan gerakan kakinya agak2 lebay, dia perlu dipijet karena aku khawatir dia suka pegel2 gitu.

Pertama, pijat kaki, tangan, stretching, gaya mengayuh pedal,..

trus punggung, leher, bahu, patpat. Biar dia ngga guling2, salah satu therapist ngajakin main boneka Tigger. Untunglah Aidan cukup sopan untuk mau meladeninya, hehehe :p

Kalo Aidan udah bosan dan nangis, terpaksa acara massage di-pause dulu :)

Dirayu-rayu ngga berhasil, terpaksa mamanya turun tangan, gendongin dulu sambil main di depan cermin. 

Kalau sudah tenang, resume lagi.

Akhirnya bagian paling ditunggu pun tibalah saatnya. Berenang ^^

Aidan harus pakai pelampung khusus di lehernya supaya kepala tetap di atas permukaan air, nanti biarkan badannya mengambang di dalam air, trus tangan dan kakinya gerak2, trus postur tulang belakangnya terbantu jadi tegak dan lehernya dilatih supaya kuat.

Itu skenarionya.

Tapi..

Aidan sudah agak telat mulainya. Jari kakinya sudah sampai ke dasar.

Dan yang jadi masalah, dia ngga mau pakai pelampungnya.

Itu kan pelampungnya dekat sama wajahnya, bawaannya pengin dimasukin mulut aja. Tapi karena ngga bisa, cuma bisa dijilatin dan dia mulai kesal. Apalagi jadi susah tengak-tengok.

Akhirnya, ngga berhasil ditenangkan. Dalam kurang dari 5 menit (harusnya 15 menit, at least), dia udah nangis keras banget, marah.

Hup! Diangkatlah dia dari kolam dan ditenangkan, digendong lagi keliling ruangan. Setelah udah bisa ketawa, dicoba pakai pelampung lagi.. Langsung nangis! T_T Huhuhu... Gagal deh acara berenangnya.

Katanya sih wajar kalau pertama kali mencoba ini bayinya nangis. Hmm, kapan ya coba lagi? Semoga Aidan udah berani. Tapi jangan2 saat itu Aidan sudah napak ke dasar kolam? :D Telat siiihh...

♥

Tapi seriously, masuk ke W&W selalu bikin aku pengin daftar utk perawatan top to toe. Ahhh, Aidan kan udah makin berat, makin pegel aja badan ini gendongin dia kesana kemari. Maybe this weekend?

2 hours for me-time is not too much, is it? ;)

Aidan's Room

Awalnya, ketahuan bahwa Aidan sudah tertarik banget sama warna-warni gambar di kamar Mumtaz.

Akhirnya kami putuskan untuk bikin kehebohan juga di tembok kamar Aidan (which is kamar kami juga, hehe).

Dimulai dari kertas kado yang ada gambar baby-nya. Itu bungkus kadonya Aidan dari sepupu. Aku gunting2 dan ditempel di atas baby box. Selanjutnya, berbagai bentuk dari kertas Asturo.

Kenapa ngga beli stiker dinding aja? Karena:

1. Belum ketemu toko yg jual di Jogja.

2.Mau beli online lupa terus.

3. Pengin bentuk yang ngarang sendiri.

Inilah hasil sementara:

He loves his room now, but it doesn't stop him from crying whenever he gets bored :)

My (our) new baby wrap

Oh, my..

 

baby wrap is really comfy, indeed. For me as it is for the baby. No back pain, no shoulder ease, more like pregnant but without muscle ease :)

Look at my dear 5 mo baby kangoroo :p

My mom bought it for me as a gift for Aidan. Haha.. it's more like a gift for me, actually.

Something New

Dia datang di tengah2 kami.

Suddenly, semua berubah. Rutinitas, menu sarapan, luas kamar, anggaran bulanan, bahkan cita-cita kami.

Dia menjadi alasan baru setiap nafas dan langkah kami.

Oh.. :)

Tiba2 ada sepatu kecil, baju kecil, boneka-boneka, kamar yang wanginya lembut, dan hari-hari penuh kejutan!

Can't thank You enough, dear God..

♥

Inilah yang akan membantuku mewujudkan harapan-harapan terbaik..

The new Duren-Duren

Masih ingat postingan tentang kedai durian Duren-Duren?

Waktu itu aku sangat ngga puas dengan penyajiannya. Nah, sekitar setahun lalu (buset, lama bener yak..), aku kembali ke sana. Ternyata banyak perubahan sederhana tapi sangat penting buat kenyamanan makan sajiannya. Dalam hati sih bertanya-tanya juga, apa karena baca reviewku yang dulu itu ya? Hehehe.. who knows?

Menu masih digambar langsung di tiang ruangan (1).Sekarang, durian di mangkok ngga lagi disajikan utuh dengan bijinya, cuma dagingnya aja jadi bisa disendok (2). Lukisannya sudha diganti. Sama menariknya, lucu malah (3)

Btw, aku dapat template layout foto yang lumayan dari Pugly Pixel. Praktis banget, masukin foto ke template photoshopnya aja udah beres :)

Go, have a try!

once again i'm in love

with this little man

 Muhammad Aidan Hadar. My beloved baby boy, born on 9th of June 2011, 12.50 pm. Weight 3,3 kgs and 50 cms long.
That is how he looks on the day he was born.

 This is when he was 20 days old. Oh, those eyes :)

This is Aidan 2,5 mths old.

I cannot avoid falling in love with him. Everyday is a moment waiting for new surprises, he never stop making me get ready for something unpredictable.

Last night, he slept at 7 pm. Only once short awaken, and really wake up at 7 am! I tried to sneak to the bedroom to see wether he was still asleep or not, and i couldn't not smiling when i saw him "playing" alone. He was watching arround him and smiling and moving his hands and feet ups and down.

My two darlings :)

My two sunshines
