I love babies

Despite my calls home and long emails, my family have conspired to not tell me that my sister has been pregnant all this while! Apparently they wanted to surprise me.


And so I got a big shock when my dad told me my latest nephew arrived this morning at 4 am on the first day of Ramadan. Syukur Alhamdulillah he's a healthy tiny 2.6kg boy.


Anyhoos, the reason for this post is that my sister is picking between three names; Naufal, Harun and Hasan. Hands down I pick Naufal because Harun or Hasan (no offense to all Haruns and Hasans out there) sounds a bit old.


Though actually Daniel or Dimitri would be nice names. We'll just have to wait for my sister's decision.

That's my dad and my niece's arm. Looks like Darwisyah is still going to be the reigning princess in the family.

thanks girls. yeah it was sneaky of them wasn't it...i nearly had a heart attack. imagine if my sis had given birth like at the end of the year and decided to keep it a secret till i flew back! i'll be at the airport, "anak sape ni?"

Fahim means 'intelligent and judicious'.

In African it means 'learned'.

In Hindi I don't know.
