Mixed Festivities


dei thambi!


For the recent holidays, we decided to give Jesse a little Indian Kurta. He looks like a tiny little Amitabh Bachan minus the facial hair and macho wrinkles.

We would have gotten him a Baju Melayu as well, if he didn't keep tripping over the sampin. So that wouldn't have worked too well. Besides, these days he seemed adversed to having anything placed atop his head and a songkok would have been a problem as well. And so we took the boy visiting in his new outfit. Unfortunately, however, we didn't know anybody who celebrated Deepavali in KL. So he wore a Indian costume for Hari Raya instead.

And then there was Roma. Mae and I had decided it would be a nice gesture to give her a new outfit for the Hari Raya and so we brought her Baju Kurung shopping around town. Unfortunately, the picky girl couldn't decide on an outfit and instead settled for a Chinese number. So there we were at Elin's house during Raya lending a very muhibbah flavour to the event.

It looked more like we had our festivals mixed up. Perhaps we'll dress the boy up in Iban gear next year. :)

  15. All eight of them, Norzu. :lol:
    Hahhhaaa,, too bad KL not enough trees to dance around, Buaya!
    I guess once they grow up they'll never let you dictate their fashion, eh Li? :)
    Thanks for saying so, Pelf! :)
    Unfortunately, MOTT, Jesse usually has a sullen disposition towards strangers. So, that's how women can resist him. Hahh.
    Oh, he's a pretty muhibbah kid, Lucia. In fact, we notice that he tends to gravitate towards Indian folks. Must be why he's quite welcomed at the Indian restaurants. :lol:
    Little girl killer, eh, Deepsy? :lol:
    Thanks, Primrose. Takes after Daddy. *ahaks*
    We're trying to get him some more cutesy stuff before he stops being cute, Gina.
    There isn't much to an Iban costume, Angel. Literally.
    Aha, very sharp four eyes you have, Percolator!
    Hahah, yes, Roma should be quite a hit too, Babe.
    You can certainly try, Visithra. :)
    Go away, Sashi! *dush*
    Thanks Chia!
    Mommy took that one, Adriene. :)
