Jolly Jumper

Went to Sunday Market yesterday with my neighbour Kak Su and she influenced me to buy Jolly Jumper! I never knew about Jolly Jumper before even Kak Su cakap during baby expo haritu ada demonstration/promotion Jolly Jumper.*How come I didn't notice it?* At first dengar rasa macam nama penulis buku kanak-kanak.LOL.

Benefits for babies:
- It’s good exercise for babies
- Strengthens baby’s leg muscles
- Promotes earlier walking (by virtue of the fact that it strengthens their leg muscles) and motor coordination

Bought mine at $7 but I'm not sure whether my baby will like it or not. Harapnya suka & cepat berjalan la ye.. so cepat sikit boleh tambah baby lagi 1.;p

Look at this cute baby. She really enjoys her Jolly Jumper!

Baby Cot

Our baby cot has arrived today!Yeay! Tak jadi beli kat Baby Expo so beli jela kat Gumtree. It costs $99 + cot mattress + delivery. Add another $20 for a couch pulak. Dah alang2 seller tu boleh hantar ke rumah so order je apa yang perlu, & rasa berkenan. ;p Finally decided to buy the baby cot because it has all the features that I want:

1. White
2. Has wheels even it's quite hard to move it around in our house sebab rumah berkarpet sepenuhnya.(except kitchen & toilet.;p)
3. 1 side slides up and down to lift baby
4. Looks new! Cot mattress juga looks new without any tear or stain. Boleh consider untuk bawak balik Msia in future, otherwise will resell it

I did some research before deciding to buy a baby cot or not. Setengah orang rasa tak payah sebab baby katanya tidur sekatil je dengan parents, senang nak breastfeed, etc.Bunyinya macam a BIG NO NO NO la for me since we're using double bed je & katil jugak tinggi.Risau baby jatuh or sendiri yang lupa ada baby kang hempap pulak.;p Buying a new bigger bed for 3 of us is not a good decision since tilam pon baru beli.

Now I'm looking for cot bumper & cot sheets pulak. 11 weeks to go!

Baby Expo

I went to Pregnancy, Babies & Children's Expo today at Adelaide Showgrounds. The expo is held from 16-18 March so I decided to go on the 1st day sebab weekend sure ramai sangat orang. I went there alone, senang sikit nak tengok itu ini sebab saya sungguh banyak songeh.;p Lagipon hari ni hari Jumaat so malas nak heret husband yang nak pergi solat Jumaat pulak.

 The admission fee is $15 but if register awal-awal via online, you don't need to pay for it. It's FREE, yeay! Print je ticket or tunjuk je your smartphone dah boleh masuk.


I was looking for a stroller tapi takde good bargain pon. Harga biasa2 je macam sale kat tempat lain.I plan to buy 2 strollers.1 nak beli baru, 1 nak beli 2nd hand je untuk buat campak naik flight nak balik Malaysia nanti.Ok, it's still a longgg way to go.Still have plenty of time to think about it.


 Girly sangat. Ni kalau bawak anak perempuan yg suka princess silap hari bulan boleh nangis guling2 mintak beli pulak.


 Face painting.Atau paint jela kat mana2 yang disukai.;p


 Baby cot pon dalam wishlist jugak tapi tak murah pon kat expo.Contoh this set AUD1000++. Over tau lagi mahal dari katil parents.;p I'd only consider it kalau letak je baby boleh terus tidur immediately.Ok, tipulah kan.


Ada Wendy's, ada coffee shop etc untuk lepaskan penat lepas jalan2 semua booth yang ada.


FREE Goodies.3 yang Avent tu je yang beli akhirnya.

Breastfeeding set

I never imagined that shopping for the baby can be so much fun! Why, if tau nak ada baby setahun lepas lagi ke? Eh tidaklah pula begitu.;p Ok, now rasa macam semua pon nak beli even dah buat list awal-awal apa yang rasa patut dibeli. Since this is my 1st experience & deliver baby pulak kat oversea,list tu memang buat 'over' sikit. Biar 'over', jangan kurang.Cuma rasanya I should stop buying clothes for the baby. Baju newborn beli 5-6 pasang je since baby cepat besar.Yang banyaknya now 3-6months.

For breastfeeding set, I've been eyeing Phillips AVENT Breastfeeding set tapi tak berkenan pulak dengan breast pumpnya. Instead of Avent Manual Breastpump, I wanna buy Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump. Ramai yang recommend beli yang electric & dual, lebih senang but still belum beli lagi. Gonna buy it later sebab tengah tunggu offer. Pergi garage sale memang ada jumpa but sedih pulak nak beli yang 2nd + rasa kurang hygiene.;p

So barang-barang Avent yang lain beli asing-asing & lebih murah rasanya beli asing sebab dapat good offer from online websites.

Avent Bottles 260ml x 3 = $9.99 per box, bought from Big W Online + FREE shipping. (I bought 2 boxes, end up menyesal tak order 20 boxes sebab murah!)

NEW in box Avent Steriliser + Avent Manual Breast Pump + Avent Breast Milk Containers x 4 = $40, bought from Gumtree.

Gumtree ni macam Mudah.my if kat Malaysia.Finally 'ter'beli jugak Avent Manual Breast Pump since it's new in box & very cheap! At least senang nak bawa travel ke mana-mana.

I was so excited with the breast pump *jakun* & I've tried it to myself.LOL.Of course la takde hasil lagi.~_~

Pondok Bali

PONDOK BALI
310 Pulteney St. Adelaide


Entering the restaurant, we were welcomed by a friendly staff. Nampak je Melayu terus cakap Melayu. Sangat suka.:) Kedai Indonesia tapi ramai mat saleh yang datang makan.


The restaurant is dimly lit & I love the deco except patung-patung yang quite disturbing. Memang feel 'Bali' sangat dengan background music Bali ke Indonesia, tak sure.


Konpius nak pilih makan apa. Read some reviews before kata Nasi Goreng yang sedap. Mula2 fikir takkan la datang kedai macam ni nak order Nasi Goreng, balik rumah pon boleh buat.*sombong ye.* Tapi takde Nasi Uduk, Nasi Iga or Ayam Penyet or even Soda Gembira. Maybe makanan Bali lain kot. I don't know.


Harga main course lebih kurang $12-$25. We enjoyed 20% discount cos husband ada SDA membership card.:)


Ended up ordering Gado-Gado, Sup/Soto Ayam & Nasi Goreng Istimewa jugak.Hehe. Alhamdulillah sangat sedap, bukan so-so je rasanya.

Nasi Goreng Istimewa
$13.90



Sup/Soto Ayam
$5.90


Gado-gado


The whole experience was excellent & will definitely come again!We still have 3 months to go to enjoy our meals in peace.Lepas ni the more, the merrier.;p

New skincare products

Balik kelas harini semangat nak ke Myer semata-mata nak dapatkan free gift ini. It's free with purchase of $60 or more!

Today's purchases.
Rasanya boleh tahan setahun.

I swear I won't buy it again kalau kulit tak bertambah cantik.Noted the word 'bertambah' ye.;p Some people kata guna SK-II but tengok, "Oops, macam sama je kita guna guna Clean & Clear." Hehe. Ok fine, maybe it depends whether it's suitable for your skin or not.*fikir positif* Drugstore beauty products ok je for my skin especially Clean & Clear yang dah bertahun guna. Saja try lain pulak kot la hasilnya lebih bagus. Before this hanya try Clinique moisturizer je sebab baca review kononnya ramai kata 'star product'. Yes, I really love the moisturizer.It's easily absorbed into the skin. Tepek foundation insya-allah tak bercapuk2 & lambat kulit nak berminyak.

I decided to buy the whole set bila Clinique sales person yang sangat friendly & cantik tu cakap after 3 weeks akan ada appointment untuk tengok perubahan kulit kita. So if tak beli the whole set susahlah nak complaint kata tak berkesan kan.Mine will be on Monday (19/3). If takde perubahan boleh return ke? I don't know.Let's wait & see!

And here's the free gift!;) Sadly, the make up bag is pink.:( The more I hate pink, the more I can't avoid it.lol.
