Presents hunting

Back to hubby's full-of-surprises birthday~

Since I didn't know what to get for him, I've pleaded him to tell me what he wants for birthday.  Furthermore, knowing hubby, he can be very fussy on things.  Instead of me buying more shirts and pants, might as well I just get him things that he wants most kan?  And so he chose perfume...

So, last Saturday (17 Mar), hubby, me and lil Alya went to our fav shopping place ever, One Utama.  Jijak je kaki, hubby got a call from office and he's required to be at the office immediately.  Mmg hangin lah sungguh rasanya mengenangkan weekend yg x brape bersama suami tuh.

And so, I was left alone with Alya.  Stop by at MPH since I've been thinking of buying educational sticker book for her.  Tgh dok syok memilih and browse thru all the interesting and interactive books, Alya leh poo laks and so, off I went to clean her up.  Susah sungguh rasanye masa tuh menjadi ibu tunggal sementara~

After that, mengenangkan hubby wont be back in a blink of an eye, I planned to buy birthday pressies from mom and Alya.  Mom had informed that she wanted to buy him boxers as he's been complaining that his boxers dah start torn out.  Hehehe.. mau x nyer.. Asal shopping je, dok barang Mrs ajer.. :)  Grabbed 2 knee length with pockets boxers at The Underwear, ran off to Memory Lane for wrapping.  Mujur lah Alya was very much well behaved in her stroller.  Stop by at Rotiboy to grab corn bread for Alya.

Tgh dok pening pikir what to give from Alya, I decided to go back to MPH.  Then I noticed this cute lil shop next to MPH call Art Crafty (if I'm not mistaken).  The class is open for kids age 2 1/2 years and above.  Pleaded to roll Alya in as I want her artwork to become his father's birthday present.  The class cost @ RM45 per session and it is 1 hour for every session.

Alya chose Barney as her artwork and our first difficulty was to get her into an apron.  Done that, the next most difficult thing was to let her hold a brush.  She hid her hand and she kept saying "dirty".  The teachers had to get her a NEW brush!  Kunun pembersih habis lah tuh minah kecik nih.  What Alya need to do was just paint the cut Barney.  Getting her to paint was pretty hard as well as she's not used to painting at all...  I noticed that since each teacher teach only 1 student at a time, the teacher could really help the kids to enhance their skill.  Alya was first jotting down the brush instead of brushing it.  After a while, she managed to brush the colour though compang camping here and there.  Lepas tuh since the Barney agak besar, dia jadi cepat bosan.  Bila teacher smooth down areas yg die dh paint, sebuk je die nak brush balik kat tmpt tuh..  Eeiii.. mujur lah the teacher is very patient.  Since the Barney comes with a ball, Alya get to choose her own colour.  Huh.. dipilihnya colour yg btol² right in front her eyes ajer.. Yg sebuknya, die keep on amek glitters yg ada kat around.

To add personal touch, I've requested for Alya to stamp with her palm.  Seeing betapa clean freak nye Alya, teacher suh I je yg colour her palm using colours yg Alya chose.  As expected, Alya chose pink first.  Masa I paint her hand, she was sitting still and staring at the palm.  Seram kot?  Bile dah stamp, die cakap "Shome more!"  Hehehe.. maksudnye, ok lah tuh kan?  Paint her other hand in white (colour yg btol² ada depan mata die) and another in blue.  She looked pretty pleased with herself~

Yg kelakarnye, lepas tuh tangan dok terangkat je sbb "dirty".

Elok je habis the session, hubby arrived.  Went to buy his perfume yg pada die x besh langsung sbb it's no surprise...  Well, hubby, you are yet to know the surprises laid for you already~
