mothers are corny
February 18, 2014The most exciting part about coming home from work is when Daniel just flaps his arms for me to pick him up. Or if it’s been too long, he’ll crawl/wobble/cry his way to my feet with his arms up in air. And when I pick him up to me, he gives a little giggle which btw is the cutest sound my ears have ever heard. Babies are amazing and so non-judgmental. They don’t care if you haven’t showered, they don’t care if your outfit is all wrong, they don’t care if you have 3 pimples in the shape of a triangle on your forehead, they just want you for all that you are inside.
At 7 months, Daniel can now crawl and he is now starting to stand on his own, just for a nanosecond before tumbling down onto something. He eats a whole lot more now, and he seems to only like expensive fish (sardines, are those cat food?). He is feisty now, he can really smack you hard in the face or scratch you if you don’t let him have the remote control (maybe we should stop feeding him sardines). And he now babbles a lot of Ba-ba-ba or Ma-ma-ma or Phhbbtttt with saliva rain coming down his chin. He has two bottom teeth, which my boobs aren’t exactly thrilled about. He is so smart now in that he will find ways to get that bloody remote control even if you hide it underneath your bum. Left, right, center, up, down, he will twist and turn and crawl until he gets it (a bit like me, awwwww). He has fallen off the bed twice and he accidentally ate paper the other day, which I swear I think he enjoyed more than sardines.
I’m writing this while watching Daniel sleep and a cloud of emo maternal feelings just won’t leave me. Before I whipped up my laptop from my bag, I spent a good 5 minutes just staring at him. Like literally, just staring at him and doing nothing else. He’s just so perfect Masyaallah, and perfect doesn’t even exist let alone so perfect. But if there was such a thing as so perfect, in my eyes it would be Daniel. And I’m sure for you, it would be ____________ (insert all your children’s names in here).
Mothers are corny, aren’t we? This is why we lose our single friends! Right after we start taking out our phones and showing pictures of our kid smiling, crying, sleeping, eating, sucking their thumb and the ultimate annoying mom alert; a picture of our kid whilst breastfeeding. Seriously, why do mothers snap pictures of themselves breastfeeding? No, please, no. The funny part is that the moment our friend stops showing interest in the picture of our kid smiling, crying, sleeping, eating and/or sucking their thumb, we go “Did you see that? I think you didn’t see properly. Lemme show you that one again. Cute, huh???”
Cute, huh???
yes!!
u same mcm i..!! annoyed dengan mother yang pos gambar breastfeeding andddddd tayang susu brape banyak dorang berjaya pump.. OMG!!
I miss this kind of post instead your ootd !! hikhik
I too think baby D is sooo cute if im still single..i love babies..however i agree with you about mothers snapping pictures about breastfeed. I disagree with these kind of act..im also a breastfeeder but i dont do that cos it will hurt mothers who cant breastfeed. I get it we have achieve it..congratulations bla bla but no need to show off..we can share the exprience together but no need to share ur milks in the fridge, pumping in the car, etc etc in social network. Just my 2 cents
Alahai comel ye Daniel. I’m not married yet but always pray that I don’t be like that, I mean breastfeeding nak tunjuk bagai tu hahaha.
ya ya right.. cute!!!!!!
I thought I was the only one who didn’t get why some moms take “breastfeeding selfies” sbb tgk macam ramai je org buat macam tu. Hukhuk
Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Daniel looks so adorable in this picture! Hahahaha. Anyway, I am not a mother yet, but I too do not understand why some mothers take pictures of them breastfeeding, also, I agree with Nora’s comment above i.e. mothers who take pictures of their breast milk stored in the bags (I don’t know what they call the bags). I think some things need not be shared 🙂
Err… yes, yes…. cute….:D
Seriously, he is cute! 😀
haha…me too!! and yes Daniel is cute! i mean for my 100th time should i say? haha
I had that Mom-ent with my baby girl the other day, I just stared at her while she’s sound asleep and I thought God, thankyou for this beautiful and amazing and super perfect looking child you gave me here. i’m obsessed! but I guess it’s a normal feeling for every mother out there. btw completely out of the topic can you tell asma’ that I find her amazing and she’s so inspiring and talented? hehe 😀 I pray that God will give her an amazing gift in the form of a baby InshaAllah
Auuuuw.. Do google on foods for toddlers that can are super-immune & brain booster.. I’ve learned this from my SIL on feeding them with Salmon (before they begin deciding their meal). Salmon is a brain booster and tasty too.. I seriously haven’t tried sardine with my daughter. Good for Daniel!
Us moms totally corny, yes. Haha. Photos of breastfeeding and boobs also bother me. Oh wait, they say its for inspiration. Roightt.
Im not his mom but i cant get enuf of his pix. Mashaallah. 🙂
After i saw it properly,yeah! Daniel already had a teeth.Two of them.Bravo Daniel!
