My dream, even before I got married, is to have a daughter. Primarily is of course because of the lovely girlish, pinkish, princess-like clothing. And then I have this visionary of accompanying them for a manicure, pedicure, spa and go into the you-comb-my-hair-i-comb-your-hair routine.
The thing is I grew up mostly with girls. Out of my 33 cousins, only 7 of them are boys and they are all way younger than I do. And I went to an all-girls school. So the thought of having a boy of my own, never seems to interest me.
But after having 3 wonderful boys, I lost touch of the 'girl world'. I learn to be tough and more aggresive, just to acclimatize with their world so that I do not feel left out.
I hardly look at the girls session everytime I shop. It's always t-shirts and pants with bright colors - red, yellow, blue, green and design with cars, balls, Ben10, Ultraman, Spiderman, Batman (and macam2 Man lagi).
Now when we know that it's going to be a girl this time around, we know that we have to start shopping before I get even heavier.
Okay, one thing, I still couldn't get over the fact that it's a girl. It's beyond my imagination. I need the gynae to tell me the gender everytime I went for a check-up..and I think I need to have at least two more ultrasound sessions before I'm betul-betul convinced (kes teruk ni). Only then, I'll really shop for one. And trust me, by that time I will be very heavy.
There was this one time when it so happened me and Hubby past by M0thercare. I told him let's see what we can buy for our girl (if it's really a girl).
So, after 7 years of ignoring completely that session, for the first time I actually touched and belek-belek a girl's dress...and I went completely blank!
"Kenapa tak menarik pun?"
As opposed to the bright colours for boys, girls wear pastel colours - pink, lilac, aqua, soft yellow..
"Malapnya!"
"And femininenya...ada butterfly, ada flower..pastu gambar princess and fairy...
"Lepas tu ada leggingslah, skirtlah, dresslah..ishk tak pandai nak pilihlah!"
Hubby laughed hearing my comment.
At last, we ended up buying the boys' clothes.
Seriously, what happened to me after 7 years of buying boys' stuffs?
If I'm convinced enough that it is going to be a girl, I better learn to shop for one...and I think I need a companion who can show me how to shop for a girl coz now I'm totally clueless!

kak you get the hang of it....the 1st month tu memang lah a bit weird lagi tapi lepas the 1st month over you will get overboard...not only leggings but hair clips, seluar t**a (only cuc makji zawiyah knows this), dresses...and the best of it now you can find non feminine dresses at the same time...

This design is incredible! You most certainly know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Excellent job. I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
