Interview Day

We were scheduled for our US Visa interview on Dec. 5, 2005. It was my first time to go for an interview at the US embassy since I always go through the drop box everytime I renew my US visa. But since, drop box is no longer possible, we have to go through the interview for Omar's and Summer's US visa.

We were scheduled for 1pm, arrived at the embassy at 12noon, finished at 4pm.

We brought Summer with us for luck and lucky she was! Omar and Summer got their first US visa.

They were issued visa for 3months.

New York, here we come!

Papa's Day

Omar's birthday was celebrated at Big Bowl at Jupiter St. Makati City on Nov. 21, 2005.

It was his first celebration with Summer.

Here are our photos:

Happy birthday Omar!

Bath time!

Summer loves to take a bath.

Since she is a baby no more, oh no!, I don't use her bath tub anymore. I use an ordinary pail instead and just hold on to her tight. I forgot to mention that when she was born, my father in law personally made a 'papag', where I only put her used lampin, and that's where I give her a bath. So safe for baby.

I dip her in her left over water for a very quick dip. Even if I am not a stay at home mom, I see to it that I bathe my baby personally everyday at least until she turns 1.

A Day to eat

At six months, Summer can now eat solids.

I started with a Cerelac. She still doesn't know how to chew and it was pretty hard getting the food inside her little mouth. The food just keep on oozing out. But she loves to eat.

I sit her in her high chair every meal time.

Chichay!

See how my baby do her Chichay!

Ang asim!

Baby standing up!

At five months, my baby loves to stand inside her crib.

Cold Days of Baguio

Summer was 6months old when she first went to Baguio, where his cousin Ryan will celebrate his 7th birthday.
She loves the climate. She loves the crowd. She loves sleeping with the cold weather.
