One Big Family:)

salam :)

so hmm where should i start! alhamdulila as u all know now..i had my baby Lana finally on 12/7/2008 alhamdulilah i cant thank Allah enough for all his blessings..i started having the contractions that day around 2pm. alhamdulilah both my brother and husband were home;) i told Ammar that i'm having some pain and we started checking the time..and they were 10 minutes apart then some 5 minutes..my brother took care of zaid..and my husband and were off to the hospital..and everything just happened really fast subhanallah...my water broke after like 30 minutes of arriving to the hospital...then they took me to my room where i had the baby at 5:47!!!MASHALLAH..say it again;) basically my doctor was not there yet!! so i had 3 nurses helping me and the baby to come...i did not take ANY medication this time cus everything happened fast and it was too late! I have to say that i really felt like it was the baraka of that day, the day of Arafa subhanallah..ammar texted shykh Hamdy to tell him that im in the hospital..and he said when he got the message he was basiclly making tawaf al wada3 and he paryed for me alhamdulilah :) isn't he so nice. and my brother was at the masjid and people were breaking thier fast..so they also prayed for me..i really appreciate everyone who made duaa for me. May Allah reward you with jannat al ferdaws..ameen.

i really loved the hospital.. they were all nice and caring..Lana was with me the whole time..they gave us like a celebration dinner the next day for me n hubby..it was really good ;), the room was a lot bigger than the other hospital..alhamdulilah the nurses knew what to do without my doctor being there...when my sis in law had her baby here n the doctor was late..the nurse freaked out. i was gona slap her in the face..but i didnt want bayan to feel that there was somthing wrong. so alhamdulilah i had 3 nurses..ammar told me that they were kinda stressed but they were in control thank God..

Alhamdulilah zaid is doing really good..i got him a toy and kept it with me in the hospital to tell him that it's from baby Lana...he loved it..he just looked at it few seconds than left it cus he was SO excited to see her finally. alhamdulilah he is doing good with her at home..he loves her and wants to kiss her n stuff..so far so good alhamdulilah. My mother in law is here visiting..so last Saturday the family and i decided to have an early mubaraka so people can come and visit me and it was really nice alhamdulilah.Lana got so many clothes mashallah..she took over zaido's closet lol..I can not believe that in three days my Lana will be 3 weeks old already! ya Allahh!! she is such a good baby alhamdulilah. sometimes i stare and just think wow i really am holding her..that she is actually here...that we have 2 kids now..subhanallah subhanallah!

My brother is visiting my family in Saudi now..one week exactly..i hope he is having fun inshallah..i miss him but not too much lol...i just wish im there too..the weather here not so nice..the cold..the rain..the wind..i'm just really bored at home. alhamdulilah 3ala kol shy'a..... my sister in law Duaa just came with some food:) and she decided to take zaid with her..i hope he is having fun inshallah...my mother in law will come sat-sun to sleep over inshallah...

so thats it for now...keep me n my family in ur prayer=)

Waiting!

Alhamdulilah everything is good here...i had a very nice Thanksgiving last week..alhamdulilah Ammar was off from UCLA last Thursday so basically he was home with us the entire day which dose not happen frequently:) so in the morning we went to the beach..and it was very very soothing for me..ammar and zaido were playing in the water and i just took a nice walk.ahh i love the beach. After that we went home and Ammar cooked his first Turkey! and it was amazing mashallah. It was a good day alhamdulilah:)

I really thought that i was gona have the baby last week but it did not happen! I'm 39 week now and im still waiting! I had zaido in my 37 week!!so i feel like these last weeks are taking forever! Im around 156lb and the baby is around 7lb. alhamdullah my sugar is good..

i did not do the black Friday shopping thenge..but i did some shopping on line and i can't wait for my orders to arrive:D i still need some stuff for the baby..like a play yard, baby carrier..i had one but my sister in law loved it:D i looked online but they were sold out!hmm what els,,, i bought some clothes for now but im gona need some more.
Any way, we are inshallh ready for this baby..but i guess the baby is not ready yet..she is too happy inside:) i hope she will come soon like really soon..like tonight. she better not come on Thursday cus ammar has to be in UCLA for his student's finals!!May Allah be with me. Then Monday is Eid inshallah :DD May Allah accept from alla the hujjaj inshallah.
and may Allah make my delivery fast and easy and protect me and my baby..May Allah make this chapter of our life a happy one..and may Allah give us strenght to raise good, strong, and proud muslim kids. Ameen
