gunung yang masih diliputi salji.kalau tak silap gunung tu memisahkan turkmenistan dan iran 🙂

dah lama nak amik gambar view depan rumah kami ni tapi cuaca asik gloomy je.hari ni ada matahari dan kebetulan lepak luar tunggu van utk ke usrah/potluck mingguan hehe so apalagi…

suhu masih 7degc setakat pagi tadi.tgk forecast nxt week mungkin akan panas sikit.alhamdulillah…

our first outing!

tues 19th, national flag day

so dah nama pun cuti, walid decided to bring us out for some fresh air ;p and also to stock up some groceries

van picked us up at 10am.oh btw we move around the city using van/shuttle provided by the company.so kena on time la takleh ikut suka hati je

our first stop was the wet market.beli daging, tulang and some veges.baru ku tahu suamiku ni terer cakap russian.coz local here speak very little english.aku nganga je tgk suamiku cakap dgn mamat jual daging tu lol.so to survive here mmg kena tahu basic words yg pakai daily la.so far i only know less than 10words haha.takpe sikit2…

next we went to yimpas.ala2 jusco la.bawah ada market, level lain kedai2 baju etc.then atas sekali ada foodcourt…

…on Jan 20th 2013, exactly 2wks ago, alhamdulillah

am eager to write about ‘aaqil turning one ie his milestones, his feeding pattern, how ‘aaqil&solidfood (6-12m), our bf journey so far, ‘aaqil&allergies/fever/etc, his bday celeb etcetc but i dunno where to start.since its gonna be a superlengthy entry, i think i’d break it into few entries inshaallah…this is more like a note to myfutureself when we have ‘aaqil’s adiks later on(amiin)…

yang paling aku takut adalah terlupa so harap sempat setel entri tertunggak sebelum memori terbang di angin lalu haha

bismillah
