Babbling talk


When my baby was only 3 month old, he sometimes babbles like mama and dada. Now that hes a 7 month old baby, he always babbles and even stares at me and say "mamam". At the time he will say that I already know what it is. Its time to drink his milk. He often say "baba", "dada" and "gaga".Whenever you imitate him, he will just smile at you and giggle.

My baby has a very powerful observation quality. He observes every conversation with much concentration. He even knows his name because whenever I start calling him he will smile at me and comes near me.

My baby observes every part of conversation we have and even observes our facial expressions. He tries to have a conversation with us through his mimic power, bablling talk and gurgling sounds. He is even excited whenever his mimic is given attention.

Its like he understands very well that we are trying to communicate with him. I really enjoyed my baby's company. He makes me laugh and I love him so much for every little thing he does.

A love that last



My mama and papa on their wedding day. Its very simple yet memorable wedding for both of them. I got this photo in my mom's keepsakes. It doesn't really matter if its a simple wedding as long as both of you love each other and promise to love in both happiness and in sadness.

Here you can see how old the photo was. Actually, they've been together for like 26 years old. I never imagine that they would actually make it. Some married couples ended up separating. But for my mama and papa they think of marriage as holy and promises should be kept.

When it comes to age, my mama is 10 years older than my papa. That's how my papa loved my mama. He doesn't care about the age and what people will think. My papa just loves my mama so much that he wont ever hurt her and will never even try to leave her. That's how much respect my papa have for my mama.

Its not the obligation that binds them. Its the ever lasting love they felt for each other. I can see when they quarrel that my papa will not even hurt my mama even if sometimes my mama nags. My father just listen and will keep away from the fighting.

I often thought that now I'm married will have that relationship that they have. I wonder if I can be like my mama. So strong yet knows how to make herself when to shut up. I also wonder if I and my husband could actually have that relationship that they have.
A relationship so strong yet so full of love. Im always grateful to have such loving parents. They always support me for the things I do. And ground me for the things they hate just like other parents normally do. If it weren't for them I wouldn't have a loving family and a cute son. I know they are disappointed with my educational status but theyre still there for me.

I remember my papa said that whenever I finish college he would be happy and not care whether he will die. That was just heartbreaking every time I remembered it. I hope that I made them happy with my son around. I know they are but I just hope and pray that my son will finish what I started. And not ended up just like me an will never experience what I have experience in the past. I wont allow that to happen because I will be good mom just like my mama.

I love you mama and papa! For me you are the greatest parents a daughter like me could ever have.

DJ's Toothless grins

Bonding with his tata.


His first cap.


The time when he was awake. I prepared a camera to see if he will smile when awake. And he did!


The stage when he actually rolled over. His first roll over @ 3 months.

Almost want to hug me...

DJ when he was still a month old. Imagine, he even smiles when he is asleep. Very cute indeed!


DJ @ 2 months...
DJ at 3 months, this was the stage when we found out that he likes to smile in camera. What a cute little baby... His cute little smile makes my day complete. And for me there's nothing cuter than my baby's smile. His smile takes my breath away.




DJ with his tata working...


Bonding with his mamala. His ever playful and favorite grandma.


DJ posing at the camera. Look how adorable he is...


He smiles whenever he sees himself in the mirror.

Ready to attend his first ever Christmas party!


First ever Christmas party with his tata.


Glances because he knows there's a camera...


Watching TV with his nana and tata...

Bonding with his tata again...


Smiling with his little mirror...

Bonding with his papalo and mamala...

His first stand...

Playing League of legends (online game) with his tata...


Giggling with his tata...


Playing peek a boo...

Just finished taking a bath.

DJ, sitting comfortably on his own and not only that hes a very fast crawler too. Its kinda hard and tiring now that he found his freedom to move around. But we always had fun...


There's nothing in this world that is so precious than my baby's smile. When he smile I smile more and it makes me proud that he actually made it this far. Its hard to believe that hes been with us for 7 months. How time flies. It seems just like yesterday he was just my cute newborn baby but now hes grown up.

He even likes to eat now that he is 7 months old. He likes to eat almost anything and everything. Right now he eats whatever he is given. I hope this will continue until he grows up. Because most babies now are pickiest eaters in the world.

Now that he is 7 months, I hope he will sleep through the night. Because usually he takes a nap for about 30 minutes and then wakes up. And then we repeat the cycle one more time. This happens everyday.

But despite all these, I am very patient and I always do my best for my family.

Allergy experience!




How is it possible when the one you truly like and love to eat will harm you? Like shrimp for example? Yes, of all the food in the world I am allergic to shrimps. I love seafood especially shrimps. Its one of my favorite food and the only food I am allergic to.
My husband didn't know that I am allergic to shrimp so that I can eat. Because I was tempted to eat all the shrimps he bought just for me. It was a frustrating experience because it was so damn itchy. I couldn't control myself, all parts in my body was so itchy.
The itch was gone until I took the medicine my husband bought. I kept saying to myself to resist shrimps but I just couldn't. Its really hard to fight temptation especially the ones you truly like and love. The medicine I took was not that effective because it took long hours before the itch went away. And my friend told me to take the medicine he recommended but it was all too late.
It was a terrible experience and an experience learned.

A cake or a doughnut?


Can you guess what it is? Is it a cake or a doughnut? Well, actually its a cake. My husband made the chocolate icing but he didn't baked the cake. There was a bar of chocolate left inside the fridge and everyone in the house was fed up eating the whole bar of chocolate.
So, my husband, being a chef in the house bought a cake without icing. He melt the icing an start spreading it on the cake.
And I gotta believe that my husband makes a pretty delicious icing. Although he doesn't know how to bake yet. That is the only skill he doesn't know. But its a delicious idea isn't it?

And there were seven...



For the first time in a very long time, we were finally complete. It all started when my good friend Kristine texted us that she has finally arrived from a very exhausting trip.
So, we immediately planned a dinner date for the whole group. Without even noticing the others would come for their busy schedule. But they made an effort to come because kristine and I were there.
Yes, I was never there when they planned a group date. But that was not the case, I have been very selfish for them. I wasn't there when they needed me the most and I thought that they would just forget me. I had a bonding problem when I went off and boxed on for work for a long time.
We bonded like there was no tomorrow. There was never a dull moment with them. We forgive each others faults and even loved each other more.
We've been friends since high school. It was like 12 years and counting. This moment of happiness and fun will surely be missed. I already miss them and I really hope that there will be another bond that will happen in the near future.
A bond like this will surely be treasured because being with them is just one in a million. Thank you so much Kristine because without your text this moment will never happen...(winks and smile)
Thank you guys! It was fun!

ssshhhh...baby is sleeping...













Look how cute when my baby is sleeping...ain't he just adorable? I always watch him when he goes to sleep to make sure if he is comfortable.

I just don't want him to grow up because I will surely miss him as he is today. I will treasure this memory of him until he grows up.

How time flies...time is limited so I don't want to miss every single moment with him.
