There’s a reason why while the rest of the world on Facebook (or so it seems) were uploading lovely Eid photos, I was blogging about baby food and spaghetti recipes.

Cos… our Lil ‘Umar was the grinch who stole Raya! He caught the flu poor boy, so my memories of the first two days of Eid are limited to nursing a clingy baby, nappy changes at every single house (awful awful loose stools), and feeble attempts to take photos of my pale and squirmy little one. I later decided to abandon my new camera and just tend to the poor little boy’s need to be fed and held all the time..

‘Umar has since recovered alhamdulillah so hope to take some decent family photos when I go visiting with my maternal family tomorrow. In the meantime.. here’s our limited collection of the first and second day of Eid :)
