hello world!






Hello world. Meet Ayden Haris Johanabas bin Azrin Haris, whose name means the Protector of Light. ok, fine, technically Ayden means "little fire or fiery" and haris means "the guardian". so i made it a little bit more poetic than just "the fiery guardian" which totally means differently than "protector of light". i could say it means "keeper of the flame" but that's a bit cliche coz i was at the Keepers of the Flame leadership programme in Gopeng when i first sortta had an inkling of suspicion that i was pregnant. and besides, "keepers of the flame" is already trademarked. heh. i think.

Ayden was born at 37 weeks on the dot, on Monday, 17th September 2012 at 2.22 am. Expecting for him to be born on the 16th since it is Malaysia Day and his sister was born on Merdeka Day. Hoping we'd get patriotic babies, even if their mom is the least patriotic person on the entire planet. ok fine, i wanted my babies to be born on public holidays so there's no need for us to take leave to celebrate their birth. besides, free fireworks? hello?

He's a little fire alright, living up to his name. little, being just 2.25 kg at birth, and only 45cm long. but he cried bloddy murder right after birth. a firecracker, indeed.

i will update on the labour story soon(ish) when i find the time to. insyallah.
