Twinkle Little Stars by Muhammad Ashraf & Siti Aisyah

Don't cry sayang

Atuk and Nenek from Malacca came down last, last weekend. Can't stay away from their grandchildren. Their antics were simply irresistable that they had to come down even if it's just for a few hours.

Aisyah is speaking more and more. And she's the centre of attention. Wonder why? Imagine a 2-year old, comforting her grandpa by saying "Don't cry sayang!". Yes, she did that. She actually said that to comfort Amirah when she cries. And when her Atuk cries ...

Rare occasion

Like most siblings, there's always squabbles and fights. Well, my kids were not spared by that 'experience'. Aisyah is a drama queen ... quickly screams her lungs out once Ashraf intimidates her. There is also a fair share where Aisyah is the one who lunged at her brother ...

Despite that, deep down inside, they love each other. Here are some rare pictures of them, sitting side by side, no fights or arguments. When I say rare ... it's rare that I am able to take pictures of them like this :)

It started with Ashraf putting his arm around his sister.

And guess what ... Aisyah puts her arm around him. Alhamdullilah ...
Hope this will strenghten the ties between the 3 siblings. Amin ...

Flu blues ...

The flu bug is definitely more resilient than ever. I thought I have finally shaken it off but it still appears when I least expected it. Sincerely after 4 months with it ... it's getting onto me. Even when delivering Amirah, my nose and ears were blocked. My flu was that bad!

Now, Amirah has gotten it too. According to the doctor, she got the colds. Perhaps it's the unpredictable weather. Perhaps she got it from me ... poor Amirah. She gets cranky especially at night ... thank goodness, there is nose drops prescribed by her doc. It eased the discomfort and Amirah gets to sleep better at night. See below where she snuggled up and sleep after her morning bath. Do hope she will shake off her cold soon.

Amirah & her bro ...

Amirah and Ashraf together on a sunny afternoon ... Here, Ashraf is excited by Amirah's presence. She is in her new rocker and Ashraf insisted on using his old rocker.

Ashraf likes to pose and here he is, posing with his fingers as a gun.
Amirah here ... with her eyes open. Very cute, right?

Sibling love

Rare occasion ... both of them sleeping, holding hands Aisyah, right before she goes to school ... Aisyah, keeping herself occupied while accompanying me at the doctor's.
Ashraf, looking in on his sister the moment he wakes up ... almost every morning :)

Just last week, we received a package. To our surprise, it was a set of handknitted stuff for Amirah, courtesy of my group mates at TLLM Ignite2! In fact, the kimono which Amirah was wearing below has the words TLLM Ignite2 on it. Unfortunately Amirah was not able to keep still when I took this picture.

The set also comes with booties. See ... cute, right. Really, really love these booties!
It's slight bigger than her feet right now. But it's not an issue. It's simply lovely. Great gift, right ... gives me ideas for new borns which I am expecting from my pals later this year.

Here is Amirah stretching before her nap ...

Here is Amirah looking at the window ... something has caught her eye :)

Amirah is sleeping soundly ... well, that's what she does most of the time. Sleep ... but when she sleeps, sometimes she smiles and laughs. Really cute ...
