My Babies: January 2013
http://babyaidafiqs.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 30, 2013. We went to visit a farm and the kids had a blast looking at a real honeybee farm. I went to the farm shop and found beeswax. Their beeswax is pure unrefined and smells deliciously of honey. I've always thought about making my own body care products to replace chemical-laden commercial products, and stumbling upon this beeswax has opened up a door. So I started experimenting and made some. My lips are usually dry and cracked but now they are soft and moist! And Mia turned 3!

Tuesday, June 18, 2013. Maryam Amelia, the Birth Story. Saturday, 15 June 2013. My husband played the reading of Surah Maryam on the radio while in the car, to calm me down. The road was clear, and he was driving like a maniac :) About 200m from the hospital, we were stopped by a police car. He told them "Saya nak bawak isteri saya ke hospital ni! The officer took one look inside the car and quickly told us to go.haha. Baby nak keluar dah ni! Put your feet down! You're only 8cm dialated! She got in posit...

Wednesday, March 20, 2013. Adam makes liquid soap. You can see how my blog is now filling up with talks of soaps and lotions and balms. Can you imagine all the soap talks, lipbalm talks and Mommy's Business. Talks going on in my house? Naturally the kids are very curious and interested and want to get involved. Soapmaking, unfortunately is an art that must be practised with supreme caution and without children. So to let him in on some of the excitement, we made liquid soap together. Gosh hasnt he grown ...

Wednesday, January 22, 2014. Homeschooling trip to UPM Edupark. Last week, some homeschooling families got together for a trip to UPM Edupark. It is just 20 mins from our place. I was not expecting much, but.look at this. What a gorgeous place! We took a farm truck to go in, and all of a sudden it was like we were transported to a different world.and it is beautiful. I am blown away by the beauty of this place. As breathtaking as New Zealand, right here at our doorstep. I can make cheese! My kids tend to...

My Babies: Rosemary Lavender Shampoo Bar
http://babyaidafiqs.blogspot.com/2013/03/rosemary-lavender-shampoo-bar.html
Tuesday, March 19, 2013. Rosemary Lavender Shampoo Bar. You may remember a few entries back I have been switching to homemade shampoo. My hair feels nice and healthy, but I do kind of miss the lathery, bubbly feeling of shampoo. But I definitely do not want to switch back to regular shampoo. So I decided to make shampoo bars! What are shampoo bars? They're like natural soaps, but you use it on your hair. Got my kit ready. This is the color of my oil before saponification. Lovely reddish purple. The textu...

Monday, October 15, 2012. Adam's birthday trip - Legoland. We didn't tell Adam where we were going for his birthday trip. But he did guess Legoland at one point. Which tells me we made the right choice. He somehow heard about it from the neighbours but told us it was too far and too expensive for us to go. He was thrilled when we arrived and he saw a huge banner for Legoland! Mia solat by the poolside :). Cutting his birthday cake on the morning of his birthday. Thank you Pakteh for the cake! The whole o...

My Babies: April 2013

Wednesday, April 3, 2013. Did you know that Kamdar sells beautiful flannels for rm 5.50 per meter? I bought a few meters recently for a variety of projects, one of which was to make cloth pads. Too much information there. So I ordered some cloth pads online quickly and it was so much better! With this upcoming birth I decided to make some cloth pads myself. Why wouldn't I, when pretty cotton flannels are at my disposal. Bought at Ikea a while a ago so I don't remember the price. Posted by aidafiqs adamia.

My Babies: February 2013

Tuesday, February 26, 2013. Homemade baby cloth wipes. I'd really appreciate it. I set out to make full use of every inch of this 2 meters flannel. Afterall you can never have too many wipes, can you, especially with newborns. They pee and poop ALL THE TIME. I ended up with about 24 pieces of smaller sized wipes which will be perfect for wiping bums and 16 medium sized wipes which can I thought might be nice as burp or vomit cloths too. I think I remember the flannel fabric being quite cheap when I bough...
