My Play Tent

Karena pengen Olan punya some place to play, and pertimbangan "tent" ini bakal jadi everychild's wish to have (well at least that's what i tought), so Mama beliin tenda ini beberapa hari lalu buat main dan berenang bola. Pertama, Olan takut masuk ke dalamnya, akhirnya ditemenin baru mau. Ini dia lagi investigasi isi tenda-nya...

Picking Up Aunty...

On my way to the air port, so early that i have to have breakfast in car...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I woke up this morning with thousand kisses from Mom in my chubby cheek. She said today is my Birthday, and I don't know what that means. All I knew, Uncle Yudi gave me a cow, a giggling cow that was wrapped before I torn it. Poor cow, it must be happy I finally set it free. I start my year with a good deed.








Then, Dad show me... Hey, that's Barney...

By noon, there we go... Everybody singing this happy song, and I.... uupsss... This Barney not furry...

Wetting the Floor

" I don't think Dad notices what I'm planning to do..."

"Gotcha..."

Day Off

Mommy take a day off from work today since she got a bad headache. But for me that's hooorayyy....

Happy Chinese New Year...

I'm not fully feel well for my first New Year Chinese... My throat still ichy, and my nose all wet... But with this Wong Fei Hung costume Grandma bought me... I'm ready to recieve my "Angpau"

"Moomm... Do I have to wear this silly hat???"

Totally Knock Down

I don't feel good. Yesterday my body temperature reached 39,5 degree Celcius. Mommy and Daddy got panic and took me to the Doctor. Too bad it was Sunday and no pediatric available. Then, this morning we went to the hospital again to see my pediatric, amazing... on the ride home my body temp went down. But I'm too tired now... As you can see, i can't even keep myself awake during lunch. Mommy kindly put her hand to rest my head...

Merry Christmas everyone.....

Belajar Pegang Botol

Olan sudah bisa pegang botol yang ada pegangannya untuk minum susu. Ini dibeliin botol susu yang bertangkai pegangan, dan dalamnya ada sedotannya, jadi ga perlu diangkat-angkat kalau lagi nyedot susunya.
Duuh gayanya...

Wonderful Life

I have just finished the last episode of Wonderful Life, a Korean TV Dorama roled by Kim Jae Won and Eugene. I watched the series accidentally, since my sister rent them for this holidays. I'm not a dorama watcher kinda woman. This was happening too when i watched Full House by Rain and Song He Kyo on my maternity leaves.
But the effect between that two doramas is totally different. Is like sugar and spicy food. Why? Well, Full House made me laugh, a lot... (for you who don't know me, i laugh easily). But this Wonder Life, I burst into tears in the last episodes... Though is ending happily...

A note of heart :
My biggest fear (and probably all the mothers in the world) is losing my child. Being away from him is already heart throbbing. And my biggest passion is raising him (and his sibling soon) with TLC, but not dotted him.
One thing i (and you) must remember, parents fight will always hurt children. Maybe its barely noticed, but deep inside their heart they will always remember. Avoid that loud talking, cursing, door slamming and worst, physical abuse.

Holiday Episode : Swimming Again...

Opa mau renang lagi hari ini. This time we're going too, coz Orlando is in good condition and i already get well from my flu. We arrive at pool at 3.00 pm, it's a little bit crowded than the last time we came. Probably because it's holidays.
Orlando, as usually when he is in the middle of the crowd, looks happy. Look at that smile...

I take off his shirt and bring him into water. Woow, look at that... He do that splish splash...

Orlando loves water since he was born. He never cries when we bath him, and even when he cried, he turned calm while bathing.

Start a Note of Heart

Once I made this blog, was actually for test purpose only. Coz I've made two others blogs before in here and here. I made this one to simulate template design which i customized. I'm not a web designer pro, until now i don't even understand how can those code "begin", "end", "header" "footer" blah blah blah can't change into great display in the end. So, with trial and error methode i try to change the standard template into something more "ME".
But then i thought, why wasted this blog, i need place to blah blah... Like now... Maybe like behind the scene of my life? Well, i'll try to keep this blog neat and updates, put something interesting in it. But maybe what you'll find most is my note of heart...
I think everybody need a note of heart...

Ke Semarang Lagi (Horray, Long Holidays...)

Holidays!!! Let's fly mama.... We'll meet Oma and Opa again...
Deg-deg'an deh meskipun ini kedua kalinya bawa Olan on trip. Ternyata kekhawatiran itu cukup terbukti, di ruang tunggu aja udah ga bisa diem... Lincah banget... smile kanan kiri... So Olan... Tapi enaknya, Olan udah bisa duduk sendiri... Jadi Mama ga terlalu repot lagi...
During the flight, Olan mulai rewel karena ngantuk... Untung ga lama, langsung bobo dengan nyedot air dari botol dot mungilnya...
Pas landing, Olan bangung... Ayoo sayang, kita ketemu Oma, Opa dan Aie Siska. Haiiiii.... Langsung deh, Olan di gendong Oma... dicium-cium, mmuah... kangennya...

Cute Face of Mine

My First Action

Mom entering me into some baby competition, so this is one of my pose to win the judges' heart.

Back to Jakarta

Now, I don’t know how many time I’ve said this : time passes by so fast. This day finally come, time to go and bring Orlando back to home at Jakarta. Andri came yesterday so we can go back together. It’s a little bit frightening me thinking about going just a three of us, since all this time Mom put a lot of helps of taking care Orlando. But hey, I think I can’t use that mother instinct thing, right?
We take train again this time, since Andri insist that Orlando is not ready for plane trip.
It’s time, say good bye for a while to Oma and Opa…
Mom accompanied us to the station. It feel so hard to say good bye, I believe Mom will really miss Orlando. The train starts its engine, another wave good bye… See you soon Oma. We’ll visit you on holidays…

Happy One Month!

Today Orlando is One Month old. So amazing, while I still think back those time I carried him inside my body, then the delivery moment, he is now already here as a real person. Not just a kick or a bump.
I woke up this morning to see this little face sleeping peacefully. Laid a hand on his soft hair which will be shaved today. Oh, I still hate this shaving idea; I love Orlando’s natural thick and soft hair. But I couldn't much argue when it’s about tradition. Beside, Mom said that baby’s first hair will keep falling, so better shave it, and then it will grow back soon better than before.
After morning bath, I dressed him in red (another tradition query). He is so cute and "kinclong"...kikiki...
For this celebration, we have ordered cakes for friends and relatives. And Mom bought ‘kue ku’, ‘bolu kukus’ and made ‘red boiled eggs and ‘bapau’. Ok, take a picture… *click*

Next, shaving part! This is it Orlando, you’re going to be bald honey *sobbing* First, Mom shaved Orlando’s head while I cuddled him. I don’t have a gut to shave that delicate head skin. But then I became so impatience and want this to finish soon, finally I help Mom to shave. Well, not as tricky as I assume, but still must be really careful. And here’s the result…
Happy One Month Orlando, Mama wish you to grow up fast (and so is the hair…)

Those Sleepless Nite

I've been sleepless lately... Orlando seems still confuse about nite and day, coz he keep sleeping during the day, and has his sparkling eyes open at nite. It would not be that bad if he has not got that Colic thing. It makes him crying for minutes, and driving me panic. Mom and her friends say that this will slowly change as he reach 1 month.

Your Name is Orlando, Orlando Jonathan

Why Orlando Jonathan? Here are some thoughts when I and Andri plan the name :

1. I love that Legolas character in the Lord of The Ring trilogy, and after since I love the actor who play it, Orlando Bloom. Come on, look at that face... *blink*
2. The name Orlando isn't commonly used yet, well at least in Indonesia... But still not hard to spell or say it.
3. Orlando means famous, and Jonathan means Gift from God. Orlando Jonathan = Gift from God who we hopefully be famous in the good way. Jonathan is Andri's choice.

So, that's my son, the resume of your name, i believe you will ask about this one day...



Note : Will this cute little boy turns to be a hunk above? *wish,wish,wish*

Daddy comes...

Mom said that I was born 10 days earlier. And that's why Daddy couldn't attend my arrival. Well, since he is already coming today, I think I can't forgive him.

He looks excited :
"Hi Orlando, here's Daddy, here's Daddy"

He takes lots photos and video of me. Here’re times he's trying to tie a father and son bond... or say : to make up with me...
