I usually start changing her wardrobe and buy ahead, onesies, Pjs, jeggings, pants, head accessories, dresses.. you name it! I store them in her closet which is about to burst, again till she has her room room – but I seriously can’t restrain myself from buying her outfits! Lord, the shoes! She has so many! Not to mentioned what we have stashed up from her old stuff. I will giveaway what we don’t need and in condition & the rest are for memory.

En sha2 allah, I will not allow anyone to stop me from getting my girl butt naked in fear of heat! My mom wouldn’t let me dress her in sleeveless items cuz she’s “too young” but no sir! Not this time! I bought this Guess dress yesterday and she’ll fit them fine in June or May around her birthday <3

I was dying to buy her a 2 piece swimsuit and man told me that he wants to pick one for her so he got her Speedos! :) o one piece! We want to see flesh baba! They’re so adorable & I love the colors but I saw a Hello Kitty 2 bikini over  at H&M and am getting them real soon too ;p come on baba! 2 are never enough!

Waaaay too conservative B! :F

Baby shopping is agonizing! Everything I see is nice and is a “must” get piece :( I usually get her onesies from [ Next ], great value, greater quality! [ H&M ] has cute stuff. [ Bluezoo ]is cute as well and my favorite’s [ Mothercare ]. [ One Moment's ] ok when they’re on sale for the big brands but Juicy Couture is adorable! <3 She has a training suit and it’s CUTE! which will also fit just fine in by May enshallah. Other than those, day to day pjs I get from Max or CenterPoint as well as the undergarments, you see with the washing one has to buy good quality… Babies don’t come  cheap man! Allah ye7meha o we can give her our all & the best.

Just a random picture… I changed her earrings last night and I like those better!

My mom of course interfered and told me that we should buy her some special shoes to help her feet develop and balance up for the walking process. I did some online reading on Baby Center and turns out that shoes have nothing to do with feet development, more like protection for outdoor activities when babies start walking and they prefer that baby goes around barefoot. I honestly keep her socks on indoors just to keep her feet clean and we have marble so it’s cold I think for her; Besides, that keeps me for tickling her all the time :) and since moms know best, I listened to mama & asked the man to search for good shoes in Dubai as he was there last week and to my surprise he did an excellent job of buying 2 pairs of cute shoes for Alma’s first steps! I think someone helped him though ;p

Light Pink & White which will match with everything!

The brand’s called Tienda Pablosky & it’s Spanish, check their website [ HERE ] for more info. Cute stuff they’ve got! Also go through their First Step collection [ HERE ] as  well as many other models and designs. Do we have this brand in Kuwait moms?!

I dunno which branch he got the shoes from because in Dubai itself they have 3! One in Dubai Mall, 2nd in Mirdif City Center and the 3rd in The Mall of Emirates.

I love & miss Dubai! :(

Remember my post on shopping online with Mothercare [ HERE ] ? Well I got a sweet email from Ms. Mai Al-Othman, their PR & Social Media Executive thanking me for the experience as well as introducing the official launch of the website. For the next 9 days they have special 10% discount on your shopping as well as great deals to discover browsing their website.

Here’s all you guys can read about on the same:

MOTHERCARE KUWAIT JUST GOT BIGGER AND BETTER

New website brings brand to online shoppers

Kuwait, March 13th Mothercare knows that mums and dads – and new parents in particular – are always pressed for time. That’s why it’s delighted to announce the launch of www.mothercare.com – a new online shopping site that lets customers in Kuwait shop 24 hours a day, from the comfort of their own home.

First established in Kuwait in 1983, Mothercare has established itself as the leading specialist baby retailer in the country by listening to, and understanding the needs of Mum’s and families in Kuwait.  Today with over 32 stores across the country, parents are never far from a Mothercare store.

Service is key to the brand’s success, and that is set to continue with the launch of mothercare.com, which offers customers a convenient new way to shop for the products they want. Now it’s even easier for busy parents to go shopping, with over 1,200 mother and baby products available to purchase online, flexible payments methods and home delivery.

To celebrate the official launch of the new web site Mothercare is holding a 10 day grand opening event from March 14^th to March 23rd letting customers save 10% when they place their first online order.  Online customers will also find a wide range of great savings throughout the launch period as well as a daily special offer.

Customers will love the choice available, from best selling favorites such as the ‘All We Know’ range through to unique products only available online – for example, additional color options or a greater choice on leading brands such as Silver Cross, Maclaren and Avent.  Visitors to the site will discover a range of offers and features including:

• User friendly navigation which lets customers navigate and research products by category, brand or price, as well by product features to help them to make well informed buying decisions.  Recommendations on complementary products and accessories are also provided.
• As you would expect from a specialist with over 50 years of experience, motherecare.com also provides a wide range of  expert information and advice guides online, helping customers to choose  the right products and find out more about everything from pregnancy to parenting.
• Regular web-exclusive offers and updates on key home and travel products
• New fashion launches up to two weeks prior to the same products being available in store.
• Priority notification of the latest specialist products and offers for frequent online shoppers
• A high quality gift wrapping service to help family and friends deliver the perfect present
• Home assembly service for kids bedroom and nursery furniture ordered online

Busy parents can choose to have their orders delivered to their home  in as little as 4 working days or they can collect their purchases from the Mothercare store of their choice from 2 working days*. To make the online shopping experience far more flexible, the site will accept all major credit cards and KNET debit cards.  Customers can also select to pay on delivery, either when the goods are delivered to their home or when they collect in store.

The site also has two unique new features which are a first for online shoppers in Kuwait.  The first lets customer set up their delivery address by pinpointing their exact delivery address on a Google map.  The resulting geo-code location is accurate to within 3 metres, which can be used to help ensure greater accuracy of home deliveries. Secondly, customers have the greater convenience of being able to pay for their orders on delivery, either by cash or card.

Pretty neat no?! But just to be clear, not all products are available for collection in store (e.g. furniture items) and this will be clearly shown to customers on the web site.

For more info on the website & the collection, pls check their online catalog [ HERE ] or contact mai.alothman@alshaya.com or call (00965) 2224 2123

6ab3an, we walk in full of confidence with a big smile, greeted by the staff… mesmerized by the beautiful balloons & set up for that special occasion to be really disappointed when the waitress (or whatever her position is) informed us that it’s fully booked and we’d have to wait AND even if we wait, it’s not guaranteed that we have a table! OK! Maybe no one would cancel but man called 3 days in advance & asked and he was informed that booking is NOT required! WTF! I was so angry but I swore that that won’t ruin the evening as that lady kept on asking: “what’s the name of the person who answered?” “Maybe you called another restaurant!” <– WHAT THE HELL! So I finally opened my mouth to tell her: “What difference does it make if I give you the name?! I have a baby and I left her to come here but khalas.. YALLA let’s leave” ! Her lame excuse is that they sold tickets! No one heard of those tickets!

We got in the car, argued a bit then called The Meat Co. at Mall 360 to make a reservation and we got lucky but then traffic was a bitch… I thought to myself if we don’t make it, I’m getting me some KFC! We arrived early and the place looked “normal” or should I say “un-festive” of Valentine’s then I was surprised when they handed me a Red rose, actually all the ladies dining there got one which is a cute gesture – and it was the only rose I got yesterday!

Since I didn’t take pictures, I stole those off Google

For starters we ordered the Beef Carpaccio which is thin raw meet with the Rocca salad on top, delicious as well as the Tiger Prawns dish (No photo) which came with rice. Only take is that the portion is too little for 2! Hell for 1 even! I am so used to American diners portions!

Choice of steak was the Australian Angus Golden Fillet, 300 Gms for each – mashed potatoes, fries, veggies & sauce on the side – I also didn’t take pics but this is basically what it looks like

I always order my meat medium well – Pink from the inside and that thing was so tender, it’s like cutting through butter.. love it!Half way through dinner and on the beats of the South African drums celebrating a birthday, we were told that there’s a free photo for the couples and I said yes!

We waited for the pictures but what was sweet is that they handed over the picture in frames <3! isn’t that the cutest thing ever! What a lovely way to remember that night which was great thanks to The Meat Co.’s staff!

Thank you man for the treat :) enshallah steak every day ;p – I still don’t know what the total was btw!

[ The Meat Co. ]

This is Man expressing his feelings on Valentine’s Day!

We celebrated the “non-independence” day last year with a kid in me and it was cute! All I kept nagging about is the Mr. Baker’s cookie cake and that I got from the man but the evening took a tragic turn after eating a gigantic piece of that killer cake! TOO SWEET TOO BIG TOO LAYERED! and my mom was worried about me getting Diabetes with all the sugar intake but that was baby eating not me :/

I was surprised when he next got in a Red teddy bear and I don’t mean one of the cute – could be placed on the bed bears – NO! a stuffed bear that is actually heavier and taller than my own self!

I was like dear God! Where will I keep this thing! How do I carry it in the first place! “Mas3ood” was the name I gave it and sadly enough, he decided to move to another family ;p

Of course since us women, as the Arabic saying goes: “مايملاش عيننا غير التراب”, man was smart to get a back up gift and when I saw that specific bag with that Blue shade I was excited :) Man has good taste :*

This year is no different, I am not expecting anything since he never fails to indulge me every now & then and 7amdellah I am satisfied but I can’t wait for them steaks tonight!

P.S: I think Dear Nanny jinx us every time we inform her that we are going out on a date so I will skip this step – OK MAN!

Yeah, that’s me gone “BONKERS” !

I had a chat with the sweet lady behind BonkerBox and I sincerely apologize for not catching your name since I was too excited to try the booth out! :p I told her that I never heard of it but I remembered that a couple of bloggers wrote about BonkerBox – visit their FB page [ HERE ]  and it was a fun idea to try out during our gathering at Ruby Tuesday’s for bloggers ( A long post later on this gathering ).

Man, bloggers went bananas over the booth and props! I just thought we’d get colored photos but it doesn’t make a difference since the fun moment was captured :)

Follow them on Twitter @BonkerBox and I wish you the best of luck in the future and your project’s CUTE, regardless props in boxes or better setting ;p
