Travelling with a toddler is not as easy as it seems..Especially when we were on the 6.40 am flight which means i had to wake up at 4.30 am, which resulted in ammar's waking up at 4.45 am.. not happy as always cause he still needs another 2 hours of sleep..
And the subang airport is not much help either.. under renovation, seating area is very sikit.. and we had to wait until 6 am only to be able to masuk the boarding area and allow me to pray.. and praying subuh while ensuring ammar is safe is another thing.. thank god he was happily strapped in the stroller.. and then when he finally fell asleep again before boarding.. 5 mins later.. we have to board the plane. so i had to carry a sleeping ammar on one hand, diaper bag on the same hand.. and close my stroller with another hand.. leading ammar to be awake again! so we spent almost the whole journey with ammar being mr mayor and saying hi to all the stewardess.. eating muffin until the whole place is so semak that this mommy had to wipe everything.. and finally, about 5 mins before landing, he fell asleep..
again, had to angkat the boy while he's sleeping all the way to the terminal which is only accessible by double flight staircase! lucky me there's a pakcik whose kind enough to carry the stroller for me.. afterwards it is much easier.. me finding the taxi counter.. carry ammar to the taxi.. put him in while he's still sleeping.. close the stroller.. and enjoy the 30-min cab ride until we reach the hotel..
since ammar is already on formula but still feed from me at night, i pack everything in my diaper bag..including air panas, air masak, crackers, milk.. including extra diaper, extra clothes for him.. for me.. ive got it all covered from all aspects.. but it was quite difficult getting him to drink his milk from the bottle when everything is hectic and chaotic.. feeding him directly is definitely the ultimate thing! makes everything MUCH EASIER!!
But i have learned the art of making muka selamba when ammar's crying like there's no tomorrow because he's cranky or he wants to do something yang tak boleh dibuat.. and everyone looking at you like you are the evil mother.. oh well.. they just have to live with it!
But penang trip was fun! more on that laterssss
