Introduction to New Mommy Life

I have finally decided to start a Mommy blog about my experiences as a first time mom. I will start off with an introduction about my baby and I. I got married on September 29, 2013 to the man of my dreams. We are currently living at home with my parents with the intention of buying a house. Those plans did not work out for us we decided to go out and rent next month. Originally I did not want to have kids for a while and was opposed  to the whole idea. After I got married I started seeing cute kids everywhere and I started falling in love with the thought of having my own kids. I was working at the mall in Bentley Leathers at the time. That's when nagging my husband began and eventually he said yes. Having a kid all to yourself to love, play, and care for was all that occupied my thinking and I could not wait to have a baby.

My baby's name is Malak Mohamad Merai and she is now 5 months old. She was born on January 26, 2015 at 5:20am. She is the love of my life and I can not even remember how life was like before her. Although more sleep would be nice every once and a while. Just today she woke up at 6:00 then again at 8:30 then at 10:00, that's when I got up with her to play. Overall she is a very good baby just keep her tummy full and play with her. She sleeps well at night but is usually up at 8:30. She likes other people (opposite of myself as a baby). Malak loves water! Every once and a while we take her swimming and she loves it! Bath time is favourite time. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for us.

Of course no one is perfect so all I am here to do is share my experiences with the hopes of helping others. Hope everyone enjoys and feel free to comment possible topic ideas. Thank you!

Trip to Sweden: Landskrona and Höganäs

It has been a while fellow bloggers since I just got back from my month long trip to Sweden! I shall be writing all about it in the next few blog post entries. My husband has three brothers who all live in Sweden and we were far overdue for a vacation anyways. Mind you this is the first time traveling with my husband in a plane and first time with kids of my own. I will be writing a post of traveling with kids on its own. Our flight was a direct flight from the Toronto airport to Copenhagen, Denmark. We were told it is faster to take a train from the airport in Copenhagen to Malmo then taking a plane to Stockholm, Sweden which would be at least a 6 hour drive from where my husband's brothers live! We arrived at around 10:20am. Upon our arrival to the airport we picked up our bags, bought a ticket for the train, and jumped on the train. Booking and board the train took the most time for us. The train took less than 15 minutes from where we were to get us to our first stop which wa...

The Working from Home Age

My latest update is that on April 1st was official day as per my contract as a Settlement Counsellor with Northwest London Resource Centre! For those who don't know it is a step up from my previous job as a Library Settlement Worker. The hours are better for me now, before I was working evenings and Saturdays but for this job I will have the option of working 8:30-4:30 pm or let's say I want to drive my daughter to school and then go to work I can do a 9:30-5:30 pm. The flexibility on their end is fabulous and I really appreciated having the option. So, obviously now things are a little different being in the COVID-19 age of having all non-essential places shut down we were deemed a non-essential service. Now we are working from home! My husband made an excellent observation about me and said if thing were different and you had the option to be working from home or being in the office I think you would choose to work from home. I think once upon a time I would've agreed ...

Ramadan 2020: Preparations and Resources

Just under a month to go for Ramadan 2020! This year I have put together a nice '30 Days of Kindness' Calendar for Ramadan for children with the help of parents/guardians to follow earn some good deeds this Ramadan. Please feel free to pull and print off and if you would like an emailed PDF version just contact me and I would be more than happy to send it. I printed many copies and will be delivering to friends and family with children that I think would like to do this.   In the past I have tried to do a more festive Ramadan month to put some Barakah back into the month and have it be a joyous occasion for all. It is especially important for children because it helps instill that love of the month for them from a young age. Especially growing up and seeing the temptations of other Holidays and wondering why we don't do anything fun for Ramadan or Eid? Simple decorations and preparations like hanging some lights up across the window, lanterns placed around the...
