of 3D and 4D :)

I had one of the best days of my life last Friday. Hubby was home and we get to see our lil one again! :) And to top it off, it was in 3D! We never really talked on having the 3D/4D scan until I'm about 29 weeks or so. And only then we realized that we're in the window of doing the scan before the baby gets too big that you won't be able to see much during the scan. Basically, 28 weeks to 32 weeks is the best time to go for a 3D scan (I think? Or was it starting week 24?).

But anyhoos, I surveyed a few places to get it done. And my top priority is that you can walk in (no appointment needed) and you can do it during weekdays. Hubby's schedule is a wee bit unpredictable so it's kindda hard to find a place that can cater our needs. We planned to go to this clinic in Puchong called klinik Sofea. But just so happens when I called on Thursday, they don't do the scan on that Friday because they have this Raya celebration thingy! Oh crap. I need to find a new place a.s.a.p! So I started googling around, and luckily found recommendations from other bloggers of this place called Hospital Umra in section 13, Shah Alam. I quickly rang them up and asked if it's possible for us to come in tomorrow morning for a scan.

And Alhamdulillah, we can! :) We had to rush a bit because we were from KLIA sending off ninie the meanie back to Minnesota *wave bubuy to ninie* By the time we got there it was around 11-ish. Hubby dropped me off and I got myself registered at the counter and waited for my turn. And eventhough we're only there for a scan, they still make you go through the whole process. Weight, blood pressure and urine test. And owh, before I forget, when ever you're going for an antenatal checkup or any other checkup that will require you to pee in a cup, please please please do not drink coffee before hand!!! I learnt it the hard way *covers face with both plams* -.-" I totally forgot that I had coffee earlier that morning until I got to the loo and started peeing @.@ Seriously, I pity whoever had to process the urine :p haha!

So moving on to the scan, we were called in to this room. And there was Kak Siti to greet us oh so nicely :) She's not a doctor but a sonographer. You have to sign a consent form as a formality. And when she put the thingy on my tummy, we first get to see the head and brain. And then, she moved the thing to the baby's face. And oh my God, our baby is so shyyy! Baby keeps on covering the face with his/her hands and refuse to move it! All we could see was his/her chubby fingers (Sorry sayang. You're stuck with one of my traits. But don't worry too much. You'll find a partner who'll appreciate you chubby fingers just like how daddy adores mine :p) and cute the button nose (obviously from hubby :p) and his/her super cute little open mouth! So chomellll!!! I almost laughed when I looked at the monitor.

No mommy. Please! No sneak peak. Wait till I come out pwetty pleaseee :p

 

Okay fine. I give you a sneak peek of half of my face okay? :p

 

 

Subahanallah! I kept on looking at hubby while Kak Siti moves around the thingy to see the other parts of the baby. And I can't help feeling so thankful and extremely blessed to have him in my life. Because without him, all this happiness would not be possible.

 

Alhamdulillah, our baby is growing healthily in my tummy. And from the scans, everything seems to be in place and is functioning as how it should be. InsyaAllah, will be seeing this lil munchkin in less than 8 weeks!! *poms-poms* (not really looking forward to the labout tho!! *faints* :p)

 

To Hubby, thank you for tolerating my nonesense all these while. And for being patient enough with my unreasonable demands. I'm sorry if I ever hurt you in tis whole process. And I want you to know that I love you with all my heart. And that I could not ask for a better partner than you. I owe you one for this baby :) (But nanti after I give birth, we're even okay? :p)

 

p/s: Balek lagik please hubby. I wanna go shopping and spend all of your money! :p

 

pp/s: I love you sayang :p

of the 18th day!

Can you believe it's 18th Ramadhan already? Like seriously, I have to go and empty my savings account for duet raya really soon! On Monday to be exact if you guys don't know this yet. Banks are starting to exchange old duets for the new ones starting Monday. It may be my only second Raya, but I'm really excited to give out the duet raya! :p (I'll suffer later with the negative balance in the bank account. But lets not spoil my mood shall we? :p)

Anyhoos, it's our third Ramadhan and Raya for the two of us as a couple. But it's our first as a married copule. And it's going to be even a more special one now with the lil miracle with us! :) I just can't express how blessed I am. Alhamdulillah :)

As of baju raya hunting goes, I'm not planning to any new ones right now. Baby's going to grow even bigger and it'll be a shame that I won't be able to wear the baju once the baby is here (Have to simpan until I'm pregnant with our second baby. But that won't be happening any time soon! :p). But we'll go and shop for shirts for hubby on Tuesday after the checkup. Aaahh!! Speaking of which, I can't wait to see our lil miracle again this Tuesday! Sangat rinduuuu! :B And owh, also happening this Tuesday (I hope :p) is to start shopping for baby things! Weee!~ I superbly can't wait for that! :)

Monday night please come soon. I miss my hubby too much! :( (And because I can't wait to shop with hubby's money! :p)

p/s: I can't wait to habeskan puasa please. Baby makin kuat makan nowadays and I'm so lapar all the time! :B

pp/s: 18 days of puasa penuh. Only 11 days to go! :)

Of becoming a wife!

Alhamdulillah, as of 8 hours ago, I'm officially D.r R's wife!

I love you husband! :D

Today's the day!!

Officially, I'm getting married today!! (It's 1.27am at the moment so it counts okay! :p)

I'm still wide awake. The pelamin people just left. I loveeeeee my simple pelamin! :D I'll blog about it later! :)

Feeling at the moment: extremely tired!! And really looking forward to it! :D

Ps: I don't have cold feet anymore!

Pps: I don't feel nervous boleh tak? Is that a good or a bad thing? :-/

Ppps: I love you very much Mr Fiancé! :D

Of cold-ish feet

I am getting married in exactly two and a half days. My life will change forever from Friday onwards. I'm super scared and nervous!!! :-/

Please feet, be warm like you always are!

Random #23

I love you D.r R! :)

Monday blues!

I don't have Monday blues today because as of today, I can officially say that I'm getting married NEXT Friday!!!! *faints of excitement* :p hehe.

10 more days to go peeps before I have an ex-fiancé!! :D

What I'm feeling right now as I'm writing this entry: Hungry! :p

Day-13

As of yesterday, i have 13 days as a single woman. And I spent it with D.r R at our wedding hall.

D.r R and I just can't stop smiling nor can we hide our excitement! Going through the plans, positioning the tables and what not is extremely exciting!! :D

It's sad thinking that after the 29th, we have absolutely no reason to go back there on a weekly basis!

So on Day-13, my feet are still warm and toasty. I've never been so sure of my decision before. I know D.r R is the right person for me to end up with :) Let see how it goes in a few more days to come! :p

Ps: sent my baju for alteration and to the dry cleaning yesterday! :)

Pps: i have butterflies in my tummy. So anxious in becoming someone's wife!! :D

15 days!

In exactly 15 days from now, I'll no longer be a Cik. I'll be a Puan instead. Just saying the sentence "Puan Izy**" freaks the hell out of me!!!!

I've been too excited for too long that I completely forgot that I'll be relinquishing my Cik title! *cringe* (Not that it really matters :p)

The preparation so far, ok-lah. I think everything is more or less settled. But speaking from the heart, I don't really care about the reception. I just want to be married to D.r R! That all that matters here :)

All I can do now is relax, pamper myself, and freak out a little bit here and there every now and then (:p) and just remember to breathe! :D

I pray that it will be a smooth sailing with minor minorrrrr hiccups here and there.

To D.r R, are you ready? 15 days to go!! After the wedding, I'm thinking of buying a few more pairs of work clothes. It's part of the nafkah bulan-bulan kan? :p

Ps: 15 days left peeps!!! *poms-poms*

Of three weeks left!

Bismillahirahmannirahim ...

Three weeks left, and I'm feeling giddy-nervous-excited-sad-happy that I think my heart is going to explode out of the chest soon!!

Alhamdulillah, we have made it this far.

All of my readers are invited of course! :) email me (sopheaadrianna@yahoo.com.au) for the details kay :)

InsyaAllah, smooth sailing from here now on!

To my dearest Husband-to-be,

Thank you for keeping up with me after all this while. I know it wasn't an easy ride for us especially for the last seven months. But what ever comes from this day forward, I know that it will only make us stronger. Less than 20 days to go, and we will be halal-ly and blissfully wed, insyaAllah till Jannah.

I love you so much and I'm sorry that I can't contain my excitement in becoming your wife! I know hourly phone calls and shrieking "lagik 3 minggu!!" or "we're getting married!!" Or " i'm finally going to get laid in three weeks!!" can be a bit annoying :p hehe. But just think it this way, in 3 weeks time, I'll be calling you hourly and shriek "we're married!!!" :p (you never thought that you signed up for a lunatic-giddy wife-to-be did ya? :p) so please bear with me and please don't change your mind in marrying me ok? :p

I love you :)

All tingly!

I'm starting to have cold feet every now and then. I'm literally counting days till the wedding. And I am holly scaredddd!! It's not because I have doubts about the partner I chose, nor it's about having to live with a boy for the rest of my life. I think it's mainly because I'm scared of becoming someone's wife. It's a mixed feeling, off and on every now and then. One moment I just can't wait to be his wife, and the next, I feel like cancelling the wedding all together!! (Which I will never ever ever ever do of course! :p)

                          

Everytime I look at our wedding invites (his all printed out, mine is still at the printers -.-") I get goosebumps, butterfly in the tummy and tingling feeling in my feet. And then, the stress feeling came rushing in! Seriously, who would ever thought that planning a wedding would be this stressful? But luckily I haven't turn into a full-force bridezilla :p (tho, I am blamming the stress for this gastric thingy that I'm having at the moment!)

 

Wedding invites (Groom side)



There's still so much to do! Like picking up my solemnization kurung from the tailors (it's just a simple, off-white, plain no beadings kurung fyi) I was going for the suci, white, clean idea. Now writing the idea down I'm worried it's going to be boring. And blend. Oh crap! @____@"

 

Moving on. I have yet to decide on a honeymoon spot. At least now we've narrowed down to two places only :D We're going to discuss further when he comes home and make a booking insyaAllah! :D We're also long overdue for our pre-wed photography session which insyaAllah, will be soon.

 

As for the hantaran hunting bits, I have bought exactly o.n.e. thing out of nine and D.r R has bought  t.h.r.e.e out of seven! Way to go Izy! -__________-"

 

I think that's my cue to freak out!

 

p/s: I still can't believe that we're getting married in less than t.w.o months!!! :D

Of the coming September!

Just realize that I have roughly 120+ days more to go!! *hyperventilates!!!*

Definitely freaking out as there are so many unsettled things!!

But the plan is, to get everything done by end of September (which is by then I need to fill in the permohonan untuk bernikah borang thingy :p)

Definitely feeling nervous and all stressed out! But just thinking of all the hantaran shopping makes me feel all giddy! :p he-he

Get your credit card ready D.r R! Coz we're going shopping! :D *put on walking sneakers* :p

Of being super excited!

I know how 'gatal' I sound whenever I sing or say out loud in an extremely excited voice while dancing "I'm getting married in X monthssssss!!" :D But I honestly don't care! My baby sis tho might find this super annoyingggg as I sang it everyday :p he-he

I am super excited that it's only X months left to the wedding! *jumps up and down* :D

A

Wedding month, please come sooner!! I can't wait to be married to D.r R (and get off from work for three weeks! :p)

And owh! I wish I can cut myself into 5 pieces to get all the wedding-to-do-list done by August! @.@

Booked!

I've been staring at the white screen for a couple hours now. I've been thinking on how to write my special post. And I only realize now that no matter how I write it, it will always be special to me. Reason why? It's my official entry of my engagementttt!! :D Yes people!! You heard me right! :p

Alhamdulillah, I am blissfully engaged!

It all went down on last Saturday around 11.30am. 23rd June 2012 :) I experience a number of new things that day. 

1. Get my face all coloured up with make up :p

2. Had to pose in front of the camera (it's was really awkward at first! -____-")

3. Become someone's fiancee! :p

I still feel giddy every now and then when I look over on my fourth finger and see my engagement ring. I still can't get over the fact that I'm engaged! And yesterday, our official phhotographer put up some of our pictures on that day! *poms-poms* :D We can't stop looking at them! :D Let see some of the pictures shall we?

Owh waiittttt!!!! I have to put this one thing in writing! At 1030am, my hantaran dulangS still wasn't ready!!!!!! My sis reached our place at 10.30 and brought flowers for the rest of the dulangs! -_____-" Initially, we had flowers for the dulangs. Then halfway of doing it (at 11pm on the 22nd June!), the flowers ran out. Had to wait for the stores to open, my kakngah to come over from Bangi, buy the flowers and come home to decorate the dulangs! :p Thankfully, we managed to get things done by 11-ish :p Yes, no more last minute things for the wedding after this! :p

Okay, back to the pictures! :D 

Getting ready for the ceremony :)

 D.r R, Baby sis and me!

This is my favourite picture so far :)

  Picture credits to baby sis! :)

The new-excited-engaged couple! :D

Thank you mom and dad for supporting me and D.r R after all this while and with all the ceremony. We really owe you one! And I pray from here now on, that my relationship with D.r R will last as long and as happy and yours and dad :)

Of the ex-boyfriend!

23rd June 2012
With the ex-boyfriend

of being pre-booked!

I've been wearing this ring for exactly 6 months and 2 weeks. It's a ring given by D.r R when his family came over last December to ask my hand in marriage.

And we've been so blessed over this period of time. We do argue a bit a lot sometimes most of the times. I know that we haven't had the most smooth sailing as we wanted it to be. But we have never ending support and super love from both our families.

I am very excited to take the relationship to the next level. Not long to go till I end my boyfriend-girlfriend era with D.r R.

Thank you baby for being the best guy for me. And thank you for loving me all this while and actually inderstand me and accept me for who I really am.

Who would have ever thought that I'm pre-booked by my standard six classmate who I've lost contact with for the last 12 years. And believe it or not, I was his first love crush. And I feel so lucky that he's been such a great person to me. And I am so thankful that I'm marrying you someday D.r R :)

I love you D.r R! ;)

Of five more days!

Just five more days left. Five days peeps! Fuhh! *sweats*I know it's only a small step of the whole picture, but I'm definitely excited about it. I've been having butterflies in my tummy for the whole week last week. And will definitely continue through out the whole week.

I really wish I don't have to go to work this coming week and the following week. I'm so not in the mood to go to work! :p And, I have errands to run before Friday! I need to remember to go:

1. Send off my handbag

2. Pick up the chocolates

3. Get the ring shined, resize (I hope not!!) and engraved!

 4. Buy the chocolates

5. Pick up the flowers

6. Cut my nails

7. Go and get manicure and pedicure

8. Get a massage (if I have the time)

9. Remind the photographer

10. Get my hair trimmed a bit

I hope everything's going to go well. I'm too nervous to even think about it!! I can't wait to step in into the next phase of the relationship! :D

I love you lots sayang! :)

Nest Hunting part IV

I went nest hunting again with my parents yesterday. But the difference is, I made a booking yesterday :)

Alhamdulillah, we both think we've found the right house to start our life and build a family :) I'm psyched! But also, nervous and scared! *bitting nails* 

We had a long talk about our future together. Mostly, talking about financial now that we're taking a huge loan for the house *$_$* 

We also talked about how after the wedding, I'll be 100% under his care. And that I will depend on him and only him once I'm his wife. One of the biggest responsibility that he'll have to bear once we're married. And I'm so glad that he's not scared of the responsibility. Alhamdulillah, I'm a lucky and very blessed girl :)

I hope and pray that it'll be a smooth sailing for the both of us from now on to eternity :D

 

P/s: Looking forward to raise Rizal jrs and Izy jrs in the house! :p

nest hunting part III

D.r R and I went for nest hunting again yesterday. Just so you know, it was bloody exhausting! But super fun and exciting. My mind kept on repeating the same moment we had yesterday for the whole day today at work. We both fell in love with the perfect house around 3pm yesterday. 

It was superbly gorgeous and spacious. I love the housing area very much! It's quiet, very serene and wisteria lane-ish :p The viewed two houses at that area. And I fell in love the moment we step into the first house. My first reaction was "cantek!". Had a full tour of the house and was happy with the house. The only downside was the kitchen. It's was a bit small for me I've always wanted a spacious kitchen where I can do my experimenting cooking and baking both by myself and with the future I.zy Jrs. InsyaAllah one day :) But nonetheless, was absolutely satisfied with the place! :) 

Then the agent took us to another house just a few blocks away (a different model than the first one). And the moment I stepped in, my thought was "home". I didn't have to the tour to realise that I want the house so badly. Everything was super perfect! And having the right size of kitchen was an upside :) 

But the only thing is, we can't afford it now :'( I know I might be over reacting, but I can't stop this crushed feeling that I have in my gut. It's not fair!! :( I love that house so much, that I feel that it's not fair that we can't afford it. D.r R have been an angel through all this, and ensuring me that if it's our rezeki, that the time will come. 

And I'm praying and hoping silently, that it will, insyaAllah.
