Raya Babies

The festive season calls for us to meet up with our uncles, aunties, cousins and relatives; and the best of all relatives to meet are usually the little ones. For some reason this Raya, babies seem to be taking the centre stage. They're so much more fun to be with... their tiny hands, their innocent faces and cherubic expressions!

So here they are in photography order:

Over in Johor at my mom's side, we met up with Syabila first, Pak Busu and Mak Busu's youngest hence my cousin. Over here she's helping Safi fold the bedsheet; or rather Safi is trying to teach her. This time, she's more attached to Safi and likes to play with his hair (or lack of it) whenever he carries her.

When we went out for the "compulsory relative houses", we met up with the Big-Eyed Baby. I honestly am not so sure of her name but gosh her eyes are so huge and wide ALL the time! I swear I couldn't catch her blinking. Along calls her the Radar Baby. Apart from her eyes, I just cannot resist her cheeks which seems to be so full that they are falling off the sides of her face...

Meet Dzilal. Abg Imad and Kak Cah's eye light (Ahmad's version of "Cahaya Mata"). And therefore making him my nephew. He's quiet, inquisitive and is very much blur upon receiving duit raya. Loves football. Extremely doted upon by his grandparents and auntie (kak nisaa'! haha). His rare adorable smiles are heart-melting when you get to catch them! I took about 20 of his pictures, trying to snap one of him laughing. Finally got one:)

Kak Hani and Abg Saif's first girl: Ulfah. The first granddaughter of the first married couple of the first sibling on my grandma's side. Best thing about Ulfah this time is that she is more open:) She's been hiding behind a 5-ringgit duit raya and squealing "Mane Ulfah? Mane Ulfah?"

Over in Perak, I'm not that sure of the our relatives since they're a bit further. So here, we meet up with The Botak Baby: name courtesy of the Botak/Bald Brothers. We didn't get to play much with him but I tell you, his smiles are delicious! I didn't mange to snap a good smiling photograph of him. Oh well, let that image forever etch in my mind; one not to be shared with the world! haha.

And last but not least: Nur Aisha Sofia (not entirely sure of the spelling), but I know the name because her mother kept calling out her name. Safi and I tried to teach her about colours in her "foam book of things". We did manage to get her to guess a few right. But after that she got quite sleepy and her mom had to take her away:( But man, look at those muscles! Rawr!

But all in all, a very fruitful -baby- raya:) Extremely enjoyable meeting up with them. Ahh, they are the life and joy. A smile cannot help but escape whenever you see their adorable-ness.
