Photoshoot at Blow-up Babies

during my pregnancy I so wanted to have a photoshoot but coy declined since we need to save and when we inquired at Blow-Up babies it was quite expensive. Last December though I managed to get Coy’s approval and we headed to Gateway mall for the photoshoot. This is our first as a family and first for Vierte as well. The shoot was really expensive that Coy commented this be done on a yearly basis only unless I get to find another studio who does the same thing at a lower cost. Initially I planned to take Vierte monthly but can’t kasi no extra money for it. Anyway below are the photos that we had printed out. this is the only shot out of the 10 taken of us three that Vierte faced the camera. we had a hard time making him smile. He was annoyed with the camera flash so all we got was a grumpy and poker face. oh well it still turned out good.

First Tummy Roll

One of vierte’s first caught on camera! Well, its actually the 2nd successful tummy roll he did for the day. Bernadette and I was beside him in bed when he just rolled and viola he managed to do so without our help, im such a proud mama!When I told Coy about this his reply was “Love, make sure you sorround Vierte with pillows, and make sure that he’s not left alone in bed.”

Message for Vierte

baby love,For two days now you refuse to be put down and be carried by your yaya Michelle or tita Badet when Mommy’s around. Tita Badet discovered this week that we can actually sleep as long as your head is lying on our arms and our lips on your forehead.This morning, Mommy got worried cause you suddenly cried out loud while sleeping and you refuse to take your “nanan”, even rattle play didn’t work. Tumahimik ka lang when I hugged you real tight, your head resting on my shoulder. Mukhang all you need was to get the bad air out cause after that you gave us a sweet smile.Mommy and Daddy love’s you.

When to start with solid food?

My mom ym’d Badet that we can now start giving Vierte solid food at 3 months (mashed potatoes, cereals, or fruits), and that she gave us during this stage as well. Whenever we’re eating he give’s this look saying “How come you are not giving me some of what you are eating?” … nakakaaawa minsanHis lola bing gave him his first taste of ice cream at 1 month without my knowledge I only knew about it when my cousin Dougs called out my name reporting the incident from our room. He loved it! Every now and then he get to taste some fruit and vegies from her lola.I’d like to start feeding him with mash vegetables or fruits.

tummy roll

vierte now manages to roll to his side then to his tummy but with a little help kasi naiipit yung arms nya, after the help he gives us this big adorable smile. this video was taken by her tita Badet and Yaya Michelle

our Vierte is 3 month old today

little man,at this stage you are becoming more aware of those around you and recognize us as well. for the two weeks that mommy has been back to work there where 3 incidents that you woudn’t want me to let go of you. when I pass you on to your Tita Badette or Yaya Michelle you scream and cry. you’re also becoming more talkative and would sometimes reply (“wooo” “aaaa”) when a question is being asked. one day I got a call from your Tita since you wouldn’t stop crying, even your favorite rattle didn’t calm you down, but when you heard my voice you stopped crying, that incident made me want to just leave the office and cuddle you.we noticed you staring at your hands and doing the “close-open” gesture which surely made your Lola Bing happy as she is claiming as the one who taught you. you have also taken comfort in sucking your fingers which mostly happens when you’re hungry or is about to sleep.you sleep longer at night now.when lying flat …
