Highlights from weekend

Hi Dear..........*yawning*........

Oh yeah, my trademark a long this weekend was yawning.......dear God, there was a lot of yawning and I don't know how did I survived. Anyway, the weekend buzz was started from Friday morning, Mommy-Daddy-and Aisya was take Aisya's Report Card and my girl is up grading to Kindergarten-B, another year and next thing I know she'll be on Elementary....oh....





Saturday, hunting for bargain yarns, at Jatinegara market. Well, I won't called it 'hunting' since I just checked in one shop, and just spent around 20 minutes to selecting yarns and making the orders. Yup, it only takes 20 minutes of shopping after we spent nearly 3 hours trip with 2 hours of traffic jam and around 30 minutes doing 2 laps to find a parking space......in addition, it was hot and sweaty. But in the end of the day, I'm glad I decided to come along with my Father, and take Aisya too, because I brought home some colourful yarns, and Aisya was sooo excited with her first experienced to the market (and crowded one). "I'm having an adventured time!", she would said it over and over again.......(^^,)





And Sunday was swimming time with little miss Sophia at Oma's (to bad Mommy didn't took any pictures, but Iway did some, let's ask her to share it ;p). And ended this weekend with jumping and running around with cousins at Kukung's (means 'Grandpa' in Javanesse) and others 'brutal' acts that can only be done by toddler (brutal enough to get me a heart attack!).

Now that we home already, my babies are all asleep, and I can have my blogging time accompanied by my all time fave Good Day Arabian Nut coffee, and start browsing on my next crochet project.....Oh yes, that's one big smile on my face, for sure.... :D

If you still awake too, I'll leave you to enjoy some of my finished crochet.....Goodnight angels ;)








ps : For the Sweater and Bookmark patterns, you can see them in my Ravelry

World of Warcraft Monopoly

Yup, that's rite.....nope, there's nothing wrong with your hearing...World of Warcraft in Monopoly!!!

Me too! I was on the "WOW!" (literally) posed for some moments when I read the announcement on WoW facebook page before I then opened WoW official website just to have another shocked pose..it is true! For a devoted WoW-novel-fan like me this news is HUGE! Straight to my Wishlist Must-Have-Items List! 

Partnering with USAopoly, Blizzard Entertainment will release two of it epic numbers on the classic board game off all time : Monopoly. They will be release Monopoly:The World of Warcraft and RISK:StarCraft. The debut of these two board games was at The 109th Annual Toy Fair, February 10th in New York City. And now they are ready to sell, and as far as I know it's only sell online (damn shipping cost!). So if you worship The Great Chieftain Thrall (I 3x worship him!) and dying to feel the magnificent Doomhammer, or you always imagine trading with Orcs (or night elfs/goblins/other races)....then move fast and check the official site of WoW now! For $39.95 it's so worth it, both as a fun board game and as a collection.....oh yes....since it's a Collector's Edition!


(honey, are you asleep? there's an awesome thing i want to show you.....dear?....)

Spectacular Saturday

Hi Cupcakes....!

Yesterday was full of excitement. I had a Mother-Daughter time with beautiful-Alicia today. Sister Aisya was at Oma's, Daddy and monsieur Agasha went to a Toys Exhibition with uncle Seno. So Mommy was stayed with Alicia who gave a minute of tantrum, she wanted to go with Daddy, and sweet as Buttercup for the next hours ......I always know there's a Princess hiding down there, just needed to find the right way to get her out ;) 

Alicia, my second born. Different she is. Not as easy as her sister nor her brother. Her mood changing in seconds, like she has a switch or something. I never thought she's naughty, though. I just say that she is....Bright! Oh yes, like the Sun, Alicia's personality is warm and bright and POP. She loves to running around, jumping on Mommy's bed, climbing on everything climb-able, doodling on....almost everything, teasing annoying her sister (roots of the epic fights, and I'll start yelling), playing wrestled with Agasha (and I'll start yelled again), hm....what else did i missed...?

But she can also be as sweet as muffin, warm like the sunlight, and calm like the ocean........em, occasionally. One of that peaceful time was when she plays with her make-up set and do some pro-like make-up which I think can be used for the Runway ;p






Believe me when I said it'll work for Runway...or maybe for Helena Bonham-Carter's next movie, do you think?





Short story we had a great time together, had a wonderful chat, watched Cartoon Network, she was occupied and I moved on with Agasha's Hoodie. Oops, speaking of the devil, I finished the left arm already and still have the right arm and the hoodie part to work on.......I'll keep updating the progress, okay. It's late already and I'm sleepy........Goodnight kisses for you Angels :*

Crawl Away Toddler

Hi Angels.....

Since Agasha could crawl, I obsessed to take pictures of him crawling, but seems that would be an impossible obsession. Every time I tried to shoot from the front he would immediately stopped and take a sit position, or turned and crawled away....no no no, Mommy wants to shoot you in a crawling position, Dear (-_-').....

After sooo many attempts, I'm giving up...lets try another way, lets shoot you crawling from behind, that would look different...in a good way of course.


CLICK....!


Did I got it??? Well, lets just say the pictures did looked different, but at least Mommy had documented your crawling moments..... ;p








And, for this little crawler, Mommy is crocheting a hoodie with this lovely Olive coloured yarn. I started   last night and hopefully I could finished it quickly. If you like to try it too, find the pattern here


last night progress


this afternoon I'm starting on the body 



Having children is really a BIG gift, always wanted to document every single moment of their growth, but it isn't an easy thing to do (couldn't agree more!)......But then, our efforts to be a 'photographer' is also another story to tell, don't you think?!

Crochet Updates

Hellooow Angels..... :D

What's up Dear, how's your day??? Mommy got beat up with hard cough :( . And it's always happen at night so don't ask me "How's your sleep?", and it's been 3 days now so don't ask me "Are you okay? You looked tired".....I really need some rest, literally, or Dad should accept Mrs.Cranky to stay over for several days more until she's no longer be 'Mrs.Cranky'.

Meanwhile, there's been a 'slow motion' attack in my Crochet. I'm turning into snail for just having 2 little project in 1.5 week.... :'( 
The Updates are just :
1 mug coaster...





...bottle sack for Aisya...

The Base

The Body

The Shoulder Strap

...and The Result


Purchased a Crochet magazine and some new yarns...





...And downloading some free e-book pattern (you can get it here)





Well....I guess that's all. Oups, almost forget, the Coaster pattern is from here and the Bottle Sack pattern is from here, but as you can see I made some improvisations with mine ;p. So enjoy the rest of your day, folks!!!

Agasha's 1 year Recap


My Angels....and my dearest Agasha,

What a delighted and tiring day we had yesterday. Even though it was just a mini Birthday celebration, but everyone was come and celebrated Agasha's Anniversary. For that we (Mommy+Agasha specially) sincerely thank you to Grandmas-Grandpas, Aunties-Uncles, and the lovely Cousins who made it to come (^^,).

Alhamdulillah, we've made this far. Didn't think a year has passed already, and now my baby Agasha is no longer a baby. Gosh, time goes by so fast since I recall when I was fighting the pain to bring him into this world.....now look at my handsome 1 year old boy....



Alhamdulillah my little monsieur has grown healthy and smart. There was so many times he amazed me with his progress. He's been developing a lot and I'll make sure that he'll blooming happily....

So, by this age of 1, my little Prince has been able to.......
  1. Recognize faces
  2. Memorize on things, such as pictures and songs
  3. Clap, do the Roll Dance, and blow a Kiss Bye
  4. Bubbling, with his first word was 'mamamama'. But then he add 'papapapa' and 'ndandanda'
  5. Crawling and wandering (of course, what do you expect!?)
  6. Has a favourite song. And by now he'll jiggy on Jay-Z & Kanye with "Ni**s in Paris"(Don't look at Mommy, it was Dad!)
  7. Has a favourite show, and that would be "Teletubbies" and "In The Night Garden" on cbeebies
  8. Eat finger food, and his fave is Kerupuk.....sooo native!
  9. Plays with the sisters....and often times he tease the sisters
  10. Attack Mommy with wet kisses and runny nose....... (-_-')...(He's crazy about me ;p)
  11. Raise his right hand (sometimes both hands) upward as the sign of 'Asking'....(oh, so sweet)
  12. And the list would go on... ;D

From the beginning...


...through all the Joy and Laughter...




...even when things aren't too nice...




...you will always surrounded with LOVE...








Specially from Mommy :*
