pre-"confinement" shopping

The big day is two days away, if you don't count Saturday itself.

Ibu usually goes shopping before giving birth since during confinement you can't go anywhere, so it's only fair the boys get to do a little shopping before their post-khatan 'confinement.' :)

So we went to Jusco for the boys to get a game to keep them occupied, since according to Amjad, they really wouldn't be able to sit in front of the computer playing games then (I wouldn't know, the mechanics sort of elude me at the moment :)).

It took them AGES to pick out something. After going round and round the toy section -- I even offered to take them somewhere else -- they finally decided on a remote control car each.

And then it was time for IBU to go shopping :).

Let's just say I think it was pretty fun going shopping with 10 year old boys. They can carry stuff for you, and you don't have to be constantly on guard watching them -- just trust they will follow you! Of course, Syazmi had to drop the goggle I was going to buy and we couldn't trace it back so I didn't get the goggle. But we bought clothes for the kids and a few other small stuff.

Then we went to Ampang Point to buy CDs for the school trip tomorrow. And then went to have the car washed.

Syazmi was keeping track of the odometer. On the way home, he said, 'eh, we've been going round and round but the number has changed only a bit.' and then he corrected himself, 'oh, we've been moving but the car has not' (yalah, masa dok pusing dalam shopping complex, kereta dok kat car park).

They have their packing to do and I think they're set for their big day.
