We went back to JB on Friday, the day after hubbs came back.. the poor dear was still tired and had to drive there.. we took our own sweet time, leaving at about 3pm and reaching JB at about almost 8pm with only toilet stops. Ayra slept twice along the way, from KL to Seremban and from Melaka to about half hour before reaching JB. She basically behaved well except the last 45 mins when we switched drivers and she started crying non-stop.. only upon reaching JB did we realize she cried coz she pooped! Hahahaha poor little girl. The night was uneventful as we slept at my sister’s place in an air-conditioned room and we even brought the radio with her ‘water’ sounds just so she can sleep well and she did.

The day after, we went to my Dad’s house in the morning, had breakfast and ’salam raya’ and then proceeded to Grandma’s in S’pore. The roads was jammed up and Ayra didn’t like the almost non-moving car ride plus I think she felt ‘rimas’ in her raya dress hahahahaa. It took us about 2 hours to reach the house, and by then Ayra was crankyyyyyyy. Thank God I brought her sling else she wouldn’t sleep the whole day. We changed her into comfy rompers but she was hot and sticky (no air-cond) and she CRIED at the sight of anyone else other than us! Poor Mak (my mom) can’t even get to hold Ayra without her crying. She was in a foul mood the whole day I can hardly bring her out of the room when there’s guests. We had to stick her in front of the fan the whole day and she would only sleep in the sling. *sigh*. Raya was ultra tiring for me as when she was cranky, she doesn’t even want Daddy to hold her. She just wants Mommy but Mommy can’t even sit with her. She wants to be carried around :( We went to an aunt’s house later in the night where Ayra cried yet again but she slept in the car on the journey back to JB. Plans to sleep at my Dad’s house had to be canceled coz she was still crying and we didn’t have the heart to subject her to heat (Dad’s house is VERY hot and there’s no air-cond, susah betul ada princess ni hehehe)

The next day we were supposed to follow my parents to Kluang for my Dad’s side relatives but seeing how cranky Ayra was the day before, we canceled the plan and stayed at my sister’s place. She was still cranky even though at home but it was still manageable coz we didn’t have to deal with strangers and crowds and heat. My sister even took out the Malay style ‘buaian’ for her to nap in and she LOVED it. We put her in it and she just stared at us, day dreamed and soon, went off to lala-land! She napped for 3 solid hours during the day! She hasn’t napped that long since she was 4 months old I think. Later in the evening we went to Tebrau City coz I wanted to get new jeans (balas dendam hubbs couldn’t find my ‘petite’ size Levi’s in US) and also to get some food. Night time went to an uncle’s house for a while around town n off to bed again… Ayra was better during the day maybe coz we didn’t subject her to more drama hahaha.

Third day we just chilled, packed up and left for KL again.. surprisingly Ayra behaved in the car and slept most of the way (we were scared to stop for breaks coz the little girl wakes up the moment the car stops!) Alhamdulillah she was ok and the roads were not jammed up…. We just chilled at home the next day until Ayra was alllmoosssttt to her usual self, and on Wednesday we took her out to the C.urve to meet up some friends. And she was fine again! Betul orang KL anak sorang nih… She even slept twice in her stroller (double yay!) coz we were out for a long time…. and then Thursday it’s back to work…. weekend was filled with open houses…

So that’s the story of Raya for us.. not much to say and definitely less pictures to put up. We hardly took any pics coz we were busy attending to lil-miss-cranky during raya hahahahaha. Oh well, next year perhaps huh….

Last post to go!

This will be the one and only pic of my face not blurred hehehehe. Just coz I don’t wanna spoil the family pic. The lilac-pink family on Raya 2007
