100 Days of Happiness – Day 64

Another early start to the morning with cuddles, and then I decided it would be good to feed Samudra and take him for an early morning walk to take photos as it’s been awhile since we have done this.  We didn’t make it past the kitchen as kakek was home and he ended up taking […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 63

I woke up so early this morning as Samudra was sticking his fingers up my nose and poking my face, so I got lots of morning cuddles before bathing him and getting him ready for his new nanny.  I thought I would start crying when Putra told me she had arrived… how absolutely pathetic of […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 62

Today was another ‘camera free’ day as I didn’t feel the strength to face the heat outside for any adventures with my beautiful boy.  We have spent so much time meeting new people and exploring lately, that it was nice to stay home again and play and to be able to start to FINALLY begin […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 61

My alarm went off at 4.00am this morning, and I could hear everyone in the house already up and ready to go to their morning prayers at the mosque.  I don’t know how anyone can get up at this time every morning and not be exhausted all day long, but at the same time, it’s […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 59

100 Days of Happiness – Day 58

This morning Putra left at 5.00am to go filming so when Samudra woke an hour or so later, we walked down the street and I noticed a little bakery so we went inside and the girls working there were so excited and all came to pinch Samudra’s cheeks.  It was incredibly hot yet again as […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 57

How blessed are we? Antar’s mum and aunty were up very early preparing a delicious vegetarian breakfast at the house just for us, and I felt incredibly spoilt as we ate more fresh vegetables with tempe and tahu. The food in Jogja tastes so much fresher and healthier to me and maybe that’s why my […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 56

Happy 8 Months today Samudra. I am loving your new two bottom teeth every time you smile – no more gummy smiles and belly laughs from our little angel!
