My Angel...

My lil boy is already 2 years old. Can't believe how fast time has flown by. It feels that only yesterday I heard him say his first word (which is 'mamam' by the way - not 'ma' or 'pa' or seangkatan dengannya :) , and today he can construct 4-5 word sentences quite easily. Yesterday he said 'tak nak ikut ayah' with ease, no stumble, no need to think of the next words to say. And a few days ago, when he saw the Bank Negara words written in Jawi at the back of an RM1 note, he quickly said 'azan', associating the Jawi writing with the Arabic words accompanying the 'azan' on TV. I'm very proud of his intelligence and how alert he is to the world around him. He'll be 3 next year, and soon he'll be in school. He'll go to college, get a job, find a beautiful wife, live a very successful life, and get on with his life. But no matter how far he'll go, he'll always be my angel... my cute & sweet lil angel...

Scrapbook community in Malaysia

Some cool scrapbook community (suppliers, online stores, scrapbook enthusiasts, etc.) in Malaysia:
  • Scrap n Crop - bought scrapbooking papers from this online store once. Service is very good :)
  • Smidapaper - supplies, ideas, tips, inspiration, everything :) Based in Penang.
  • Papier Love - physical store in the Curve, Mutiara Damansara
  • Scrappingville - the first scrapbooking store I visited, located in Bangsar Shopping Complex
  • Scrapping Glitz - personally love its cute website
  • Craft Haven - I always make sure that I visit this store whenever I go to One Utama. Not much info on the website though. Physical store is much better.
  • ShabbyPrincess - not a Malaysian website but is easily accessible though :) I downloaded most of the digital scrapbooking kits that I used to design my personal scrapbook pages from this website. Really cool collection!
Gotta go now. Will keep updating this list.

Baby Bop Hop

I've been quite busy lately. Anyway I'm hoping to start an online directory which will list all scrapbook suppliers in Malaysia (online or offline). Also any personal scrapbookers who would like to submit their blogs or websites to be listed in the directory. Will start soon... InsyaAllah.

In the meantime, this is the latest scrapbook design of my dear boy, in a very cute Baby Gap overall bought online from HaiBiBi. You can visit http://haibibi.blogspot.com for more selections of branded clothes for babies and toddlers :)
