Meet Awkward Mom #Two

Why gee hello there.

The name is Erda. I am Awkward Mom The Second if you please.

A full time child at heart, and Personal Assistant by day, in disguise, wishes for more plays and less work or even better - more play at work!

Totally a heelophobic (yes go google that one up! It so says “someone who is scared of heels and might fall off them” but I ran down a slope one time, chasing a cab in one. Awkward Mom One can vouch for that incident. Contradicting much??) and a make-up idiot, I rather treat my feet to sneakers and spare my skin from getting clogged up.

I only learn to appreciate how to dress up more girly, in a pair of beat up sneakers that is, in my late 20s.

I love the quirky and the eccentric. Anything out of the norm. Shan’t walk the way of the typicals, I say! 

Had my share of scars and scabs from jumping off bridges, falling off skateboards, scraping skins off coral reefs while surfing, motorbikes and bicycles or just being plain clumsy.

Can’t keep still even at the age of 30, I join runs/marathons for kicks. I sometimes sneakily go on a midnight skate and goes on my annual surfing pilgrimage that is until I bust my knee and had to undergo the ACL surgery. And then ladies and germs, I got miraculously pregnant. The things you can do while in a knee brace and crutches. *snicker cheekily*

Books. Music. Travel. Skate. Surf are my passion.

Darya is only 2 but I can't wait to share how awesome my childhood was. I am so gonna bring sexy back. 

I rant about my motherhood adventures as well as other unnecessary ramblings on Darya The Drama

I also guest blog on El-Bandidoes and poke my nose to help out with the kind people there. I call it my place of little distraction (or destruction). Hah.

I kid you not, this is by far one of the bajellion blogs that I have rambled on. 

"2 Awkward Moms" is formed from our detachment of social life. We used to be so sociable but now it hurts. Haha. Now you can see us in the kitchen or behind the PC typing this furiously, playing keyboard warrior. Hear us rant about motherhood, kids at play and any other things in between. If you are lucky, we might even throw in a recipe or two. NOT.  

*rubs hands gleefully*

hahahahahahha

I am so motherly, it hurts.  Meet my awesome spawn and I!

Meet my little family
There's the flying Aby (not necessarily a steward), but not always in town,
there's Darya also known as Drama
(or Beans as we have fondly nicknamed her since in-utero)
and me the Umi, the Queen Mother of the family

 

I got myself pregnant again sometime mid-2014. It was an unexpected one. The husband wanted another addition and I was still pretty much 50-50 about it for the longest time.  It was only in 2014 that I decided if we are blessed with one, Alhamdulillah syukur to Allah if not, be it. And then voila, preggers on the first day of Syawal 2014.

9 months later, popped goes a baby boy! We lovingly call him Ah Teck.

Mothers who skate. 
Because why not?
Our baking skills suck balls you know.
