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 handsthen…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.

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 …

sleeping prince

Our vierte can sleep through the night with 2-3 occasional feedings while sleeping. But, as to when he actually learned too I can no longer remember. Right now though he can sleep by himself without us carrying him too sleep (we only do this if he’s agitated), after his “nanan” (feed) he rolls to his tummy rubs his face in our pillow and rests his head there. Last week was the first time he went out without me, he was invited to attend his Ahia Migo’s birthday and off he went with ate michelle and tita Badet. He wasn’t crying and was happy entertaining. I came home and and my prince fell asleep with his party clothes. I managed to change him to his pajama’s but he was really mad, to translate the “gooo’s” – “mommy, please im tired!”

Mean Moms

I’d like to share the poem/article below that I got from SmartParenting forum. Mama was mean to us, like what’s written below she insisted in knowing every detail of our social life-what where when and with whom. Though my siblings and I “hated” that pagiging “intrimitida” of Mama I’m sure glad she treated us that way. I see myself to be a mean mom to Vierte, as I am a mean ate to my siblings. sabi nga ng mga nakakatanda “saka mo na maiintindihan ng lubusan mga magulang mo pag naging nanay/tatay ka na din” Thanks Mama! with my mama with my son ***   MEAN MOMS   Someday when my children are old enough to understand the logic that motivates a parent, I will tell them, as my Mean Mom told me: I loved you enough . . . to ask where you were going, with whom, and what time you would be home.   I loved you enough to be silent and let you discover that your new best friend was a creep. …
