Firdaus: Watch me grow!

My dear son Firdaus.

2009-07-01T01:03:00.000-07:00

This blog has not been properly mantain for quite sometime. As I have another blog to mantain and time to allocate to my family and importantly to Firdaus. It was initially for my family in Malaysia, Johor, KL and Kuching to watch how Firdaus is growing from a little adorable cute little baby to a smart,active, cheecky my darling little boy. Today I have decided to combine Fidaus blog to mine, so that I have less time mantaining blog and more time to spend with my darling Firdaus, which to me is more important.

Firdaus has grown fast, spent most of his days with me at home, biweekly at kinderkrippe and weekends family outing. Because of the week routine, to me, he learnt many good things that I am very proud of. He is easily making friend with neighbours, our Malaysians friends and is the favourite of his teaches at kinderkrippe and friends. He talks better, in Malay, English and German. He also indicates what he likes and what he dislikes.

He loves playing outside, especially during this season, playing with his trucks and even sometimes with Jaanic's or Levion's. Playing pool at the back of our home and play with Zoe and Zinnia at the sandpit.

We kept a book where Firdaus kept his paintings or any art sketch that he made at home or at kinderkrippe. We love to sit outside at our garden bench and playing with colour pencils while waiting for dinner with his father.

The teacher was sad to know that Firdaus will move to Dubai with us. He has been there for more than a year and has been attached to the teaches in kinderkrippe. He learnt so many things from kinderkrippe.

So today, this is the last post to this blog. The next post about Firdaus will be at 'A Journey to Remember'.

I believe, the less time I go blogging, the more time I have to spend with my baby. The memories of him growing up, hope are be able to capture with pictures and our sketch books. So that I able to show and referesh his mind of all the great memories we shared. The more good time we spent, the more great memories in hope Firdaus will remember, especillay good memories of us.

I've been behaving well so far. Even though I had intermittent flu and runny nose, I am still behaving at my best. Currently I am attending Kinderkrippe at Birr, Wyden, beside my father workplace 3 days a week. Learning to make friends with my teachers and other children. Playing with sand, rocks and splashing water. I miss being at home, though.

2008-01-03T03:00:00.001-08:00

We went to London on our Christmas holiday and celebrate my father's birthday. As you can see in the pictures, I was at the River Thames and had a nap in the London Eye. My birthday is coming soon and my parents are planning for my birthday party. It's surely going to be loads of fun for me!

My first video..

2007-11-09T03:29:00.000-08:00

I was less than 24 hours of life when the video taken by my Pak Long. I was born at Hospital Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysia on early morning of Friday, 12 January 2007. I was kept in incubator for vital signs monitoring as I was born rather small with 2.1 kg weight. I was fine and healthy as I am now.

I hope I will able to cope well with the hot weather..

Yey.. Balik kampung mak ayah....!

2007-09-26T01:37:00.000-07:00

Well, ayah can no longer say Firdaus is more like him.. because he has both our features. We love him dearly

Ich bin 8 monate alt!

2007-09-16T23:45:00.000-07:00

I am now 8 months old and starting to crawl. I discover new things every day and sometimes makes my mak worry of letting me playing alone at our living hall. Anyway, I don't like to play alone. I will keep screaming until she comes and sits with me. What amaze me most now is how my parents will pick things up everything that I threw when I am sitting at my chair. I love the sound and I love to watch my parents bent and clean the mess. I am now eating wider range of food. But what I love most is banana. Mak will mashed banana with avocado, But I prefer plain..banana.
We're going back for Hari Raya next month. I will demonstrate my new skill to my family and explore more new things...
We're going back to Malaysia!!

Please view my pictures in our family album.

Babies' meeting

2007-08-08T06:37:00.001-07:00

Meet my friends at Mütterberatung. Here, I got to meet new friends and check my growth. See that, I am playing cards and having chit chat with my friends. One of the staff checked me and she said I was fine. I am now 6170 g weigh and 62 cm length. Petite but growing well (Dr. Ruckli said my weight falls within normal range with accounts of my parents' weight and height).

Meet my friend, Jan (see the picture). We met the first time at Brugg banhof that was when our mothers decided to bring us together to Mütterberatung.

"Hey look at me! I am sitting without any one's help!"... These are pics of Firdaus taken yesterday evening when he was sitting alone without support for the first time. And of course seconds after pictures taken.. he fell...

2007-07-09T00:13:00.000-07:00

Firdaus went to Züri Fäscht last weekend.

It was one of a big festival in Zurich with food, entertainment on the air and lake. He seems to like the lake and hot summer .....or may be he just likes to sit on Ayah's lap...

Firdaus was in Paris..

2007-07-04T15:30:00.000-07:00

Here's some of Firdaus's pics when we visited Paris recently. He was easy to handle and slept most of the time. I guess because of the cold wet weather agaknya.

"We are ready for Paris!! We were at Zurich Flughafen waiting for our flight. I am here with my mak. "Auf Wiedersehen Schweiz..... Bonjour Paris...hehehe"

"It was me in that kinderwagen in front of Arc de Triomphe. The weather was chilly and rainy. .. and i was snuggling under piles of blankets and fur. "

Wooosh! I am finally at the Eiffel Tower! Well mak.. please raise me up higher! I want to see the tower clearly"

"Mak, ayah and me at the Eiffel Tower.. "

" Ayah ... I'm tired! Nak quick rest lah.. "

"Yey... Now we're refreshed and ready to go.."

"Mak... You have not cuddled me for a day! This is a pic of me and mak at the Musée du Louvre...."

"What a day.. Finally we got back to our hotel. "

" We're going back to der Schweiz! I am now at the Aéroport de Paris (ADP). "

Ta...tih.. "Look at me..I'm running....back to der Schweiz... "

" Me and mak... "

" Me and ayah"

"Yey.. yey.. after 4 days in Paris, we are going back home.. Au revoir Paris, Gruetzi der Schweiz! Heh heeeee.. "
