week 19- imtiaz started joining the playgroup and more food

we've been delaying in registering imtiaz for his playgroup session...as far as i can remember, jihan started joining playgroup session when she was 2+...we enrolled both of them in the same playgroup, the ALIM Kids with the same teacher, teacher farra..jihan was the first group to join the session when it was established in Bangi way back in 2007...although imtiaz was quite excited to go to school and meet some new friends, imtiaz has some fright towards loud sound, music and even loud cheers, so both me and hubby were kind of anticipating some unexpected drama from him...

as expected, imtiaz was quite stunned when he listened to the loud music...he remained statued when the others started dancing and moving around...he was trying to adapt and adjust to the environment and at times he was feeling bored and sleepy...during art and craft session, he wanted to draw cars and airplane on the paper given when he was supposed to do some decorating and pasting on it...jihan was there to help him and we taught him to listen to the teacher and follow the instructions...

when he went home, i sang to him some familiar songs from the session and he started dancing to the tunes, hoping that he will be more engaged to the activities in the next session..

i also had a wonderful time having lunch with my ex roommate during my undergrad days (before i got married) and another great buddy at our favorite spot in bandar sri permaisuri..we had tom yam and butter prawn (the best ever butter prawn we've ever tasted) and kerabu mangga...apart from eating yummy food, of course there were some gossips in between and updating each other on what-i-know and what-you-don't and other stuffs...

sushi...yummy

and i finally got to eat japanese food at alamanda..we chose sushi set for 2 and it was satisfying and made me extremely full...i ate some of the raw things though, hoping that it won't cause any damage to me and the baby of course..when i was pregnant with imtiaz, we ate quite a number of time of sushi at our favorite's japanese restaurant but according to my sister, it has changed its name a few times and the sushis were getting smaller and smaller and not worth going...and alhamdulillah, i enjoyed sushi so much and both imtiaz and i were fine...

so what's next...everybody in the family has been busy with our own commitments and it's time to take a break together...who's going to pay for it..? the MasterChef laa... hehehe...
