Travel with Sara, a must have! Part 1:Food

There I go again, post berangkai. Part 1 is here and believe me, part 2 will be coming over. Even though I wasn't pretty sure when would the Part 2 being published. Bytheway lets just focus on Part 1, as it is. ;)

We do lots of travel recently, with little Sara. I know travel with babies/kids is not easy. Especially when we travel abroad, or on a plane. But since Sara is one fully breastfed baby, I have no issue with regard to "milk". Which means I do not have to carry a flask of hot water, a formula milk, a feeding bottle, a sterilizer tablet or whats not. Just me, Sara and my nursing wear, and we are fine! Alhamdulillah, praise to Allah. It was a soothing yet entertaining trip for us. 3 of us.

She was 12 month old when we first bought her traveled abroad (it was Bandung je pun). It was our first time too. I did tonnes of research on how to do this and that, basically regarding her meal / food. Because she just started to eat "family food" and I was "tak sampai hati" of letting her eat just "anything" especially outside foods (from restaurant or stall). I insisted to cook for her (yes, I still cook for Sara everyday before going to work). So we decided to buy a small rice cooker to bring to Bandung. I did bring some rice, the frozen vegetables, and homemade nuggets. There,  I prepared her meal before we left to jalan-jalan / shopping. And feed her when her meal time is come, tak kira la dalam kete ke, tengah shopping ke.

In between meal time, I will give her some bread / cracker / biscuit / fruits to munch. Jacob's Hi Cal was her favorite. And she also took Farley's Rusk once in a while. I did not keen of giving her Farley's Rusk very often because they tastes really sweet. I know it contains DHA, omega for the brain development whatever but a mother knows what is best for her child, after all. *Biscuits is not the only resources of DHA. Fish is one good resource too!*

And now, as she's approaching 1 year 5 months this coming 15th April, she's quite into noodles. Be it mee goreng, kueyteaw, noodles with soup, megi goreng (home-made), macaroni, spaghetti and even suhun. She loves it! And oh these little girl is also a big fan of nasi goreng. And that makes our trip of travel easier, and 
makes mom's life even easier. :)

She likes bubur ayam McDee too. Usually I would buy these when she refuse to eat her foods.

Luckily my daughter is not really a picky eater. I understood the hardship when one's daughter started to refuse to eat, and only wants to eat the things that she likes. It would be a headache, right mommies?

Sara Hana's solid food milestone (during travel)

So the must have list for Sara's foodies would be:
  • Nasi + lauk simple2 or
  • Nasi goreng / fried noodles
  • Her favorite biscuits (sekarang suka biskut jari)
  • Potato bun 
  • Air masak / Vitagen
  • Coco crunch + fresh milk for breakfast
Till then, will be working on Part 2: Other essential ;)

Sara & Adib @Cyberview Resort & Spa

And yes we are here! For 2 nights. Pre-book on hotel's website for Superior Chalet but been told during the check-in that Superior chalet is not available at the moment so guess what, our room has been upgraded to Executive Deluxe for no extra charge. How cool was that! Yeah I know I know. Hehe. The room is huge and super nice and it has a four-poster bed. Super like. And our chalet is only few steps away from the pool. Rezeki Adib n Sara. Its Adib's first outing and first hotel stays. Anyway I am so gonna enjoy our stay here in Cyberview. Had bfast earlier at Verandah Restaurant and strolling around the resort and surveying the pool area. Sara had her 1st round of swimming with MM while I bathed Adib in our room. Later will go to IOI putrajaya for lunch.  For now, lets cherish the moment and enjoy the photos while i'm joining the kids and hubsy for a nap. Later. Hope you guys have a splendid school break too. 

Adib, my strong boy.

Adib. Mama minta maaf. I failed to understand you =( Now that I knew it. I understand. I will fix it. Mama dah faham kenapa Adib nampak reluctant nak pergi school, since the past few weeks. Adib, jangan risau okay? Mama is here, for you. Ayah, kakak & Ayra too. We are family. We help each other. Adib started kindergarten since 2019. In fact dia dah start trial class since end of 2018. We enrolled him in Brai**bunch because 1.we confidence with the system. 2. Adib dah kenal few aunties in BB sbb selalu jumpa aunties masa Sara in BB, so yeah, that's it. 3. It's Monte*sori. And everything was ok, about school. Nothing seems to be worried. Until, few weeks ago. He started to refuse school. Especially in the morning. Not refuse la. Tapi macam nampak dia tak nak pergi school. As he started to create so many excuses and mcm2 kerenah. Nak bawa bekal la. Nak tengok tv la. Nak main game la (otw to school). Nak suruh ambik awal. Asyik tanya bila nak cuti. Nak ...

I am excited to update this dusty blog. But what shall I write about? - I don't know. Being in the third trimester - 36 weeks to be exact is no kidding. I guess when you're aging and pregnant you feel lethargic very easily. Maybe I am not FIT enough? But still, you have to deal with what you have to do at work and home instead. You could not complain much. Errands have to be run. I still cook for dinner, almost every day. Laundry, no exception. Cleaning, yes but once in a while though. Sara has been busy. I think she's still adapting to her new schedule. Previous 2-3 weeks was hectic for her. Despite a tight schedule at school, she had to attend numbers of rehearsal sessions for her first and second #TARI show. She looks tired, or so I think. But I can see that she had a pleasant time. You know the feeling when you've got the chance to do things that you fond of. That's more like it. Counting days to Adib's 3rd birthday. It's on April 28th. May this ...
