7 things about our little man
1) he smile’s alot now! before kasi pag nakita nya yung camera or cellphone poker face na agad ngayon when we say “Vierte smile” smile agad1
2) from nakadapa kaya nya na mag sit down! just this morning I saw him do it!
3) he prefers his food in cubes rather than mashed, gusto nya may nakakagat sya. I’m thankful na hindi naman mahirap pakainin favorite nya Kalabasa, Sayote, Watermelon, and Kamote!
4) he cries pag may sumisigaw or malakas ang boses, tahimik kasi dito sa bahay
5) he sleeps on his tummy kahit anong gawing ikot to his back balik roll to his tummy sya
6) he listens when we read stories or show him abc flashcards
7) pag mainit ulo nya we just play peek-a-boo wala na agad ang topak!

muntik na!

lying on our bed while Vierte takes his morning “nanan” I fell asleep after a while I noticed that he was still awake and was playing with his hands

then…

I woke and Vierte was not beside me! At the foot of the bed their I found him, his head lying on her Tita’s laptop bag his hands grabbing the handle while half his body was in bed, susme! I immediately grab him then he started to cry and laugh afterwards.

Thanks to his angels nothing bad happened.

Love You Forever

Made a trip to National Bookstore and bought myself a copy of this book, read it to Vierte that night and I was teary eyed once more.

I read the poem/story below from Ms. D’s site, I got teary eyed after.

Love You Forever by Robert Munsch

A mother held her new baby and very slowly rocked
him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And while she held him, she sang:

I’ll love you forever,
I’ll like you for always,
As long as I’m living my baby you’ll be.


I really really recommend that you buy the book, that’s why I cut the story short.

6 and hungry

Last month I’ve started searching the internet for some baby food recipe’s and all about introducing solid food. This site is very informative on baby food, how to’s, and recipe’s.

See, the moment I learned that I was pregnant I have decided to breastfeed and prepare his food myself and would try my best not to rely on milk formula and store bought baby food.

This week Vierte turned 6 months, which also means he can now start really eating with us on the table. When he reached 4mo, he would hungrily stare at us during mealtime which would always temp his lola bing to let him taste some fruit, veggies and even ice cream kasi “kawawa naman ang bata”.

For his first meal, Coy and I planned for me to cook and mash potatoes unfortunately walang available sa bahay so I opted for the only available food for him which was apples.

From the Mashed Apple recipe (yes I have printed a whole lot of babay food recipe) the instruction was to peel, cut to cubes, and boil the apples with just enough water and then mash. I did just that but I think it was not mashed enough so I’m planning to buy something to help me prepare pureed food.

Bernadette, Mich and I had fun watching his expression as he took his first taste of his first meal! hehehe We took several pictures I’ll post it after i tweak it a bit.

Coy still havent got a chance to see him eat, we’ll be arranging a meal together (yes via webcam) this week.
