I miss blogging. It's been a while since I last blogged events since I gave birth and joined Facebook. It's so much easier posting photos at Facebook but going back, you cannot read stories just by merely looking at the photos. And now I've finally updated my blog and back to blog hopping, I even had the time to steal tags. I miss tags. Enough blog hopping, time to surf the net. First stop is holodomor.

Baptism and Birthday Party - not the BB you're thinking of.

I am just so happy for Vicky! They long so waited for this baby and now Stephen Joseph is turning 1!

Omar and I were blessed to be invited to be PaoPao's ninong and ninang. We attended the very early baptism at 9am at the Ermita Shrine, and coming from Bulacan with the kids in tow, that's really early for a Sunday. I'm not complaining ;).

After the rites, we went home first to bring home our stuff from Bulacan and for a quick power nap. Then left for the birthday party/baptismal reception at 12nn at Gloria Maris at the CCP complex.

It was nice seeing my college barkada again. I saw Den with Willy, Efren, Jusy with Nick, and Maila's kids - Achu and Stacy and of course, Vicky with Jason and Joseph.

Summer, as usual, was scared to join the other kids in front for the birthday program. Jusy gave her Play Dough to play with. We were served Chinese food, of course! It was superb! I like the souvenir item for the ninong/ninang - it's a Mickey Mouse stuffed toy on a towel arranged like a cake.

We gave PaoPao a toy bike which I purchased from Toys R Us at Podium. Good thing I was able o use my card and earn miles. Paying it full on time gives you good credit standing and won't make you a bad credit credit cards holder.

Faces of Winter

I brought out the camera to update my blog and found myself playing with it with Winter.

Big eyes!

For Tita Ganda

Summer soooooo loved to write and draw and color and paint and anything to do with a paper and any writing material.
Good thing Ate gave Summer this crayola art something. It has 10 templates with it, colored pens, and acrylic where you can erase what you wrote. It saved me so much paper and gave me a lot of quiet time with the busy Summer.
Thanks Ate!

Family project

Summer was asked to bring a half-size cardboard to school.

She was happy that I was able to buy one for her. Pero ang problema nya is - di sya kasya sa bag nya!

After school, her Ate Inday drew an outline of the guitar at the cardboard. Parents were asked to cut it, tie a string, put a stick at the back for reinforcement, wrap it in aluminum foil and decorate it with the child.Kaya and competitive parents ni Summer, kinarir ang guitar! Omar brought it to the shop, cut it and had it car painted with silver. He attached rubber for the base of the string. At plywood ang ginamit na pampatigas sa likod ng guitar! I used Summer's DIY beaded belt for the strap and pink DMC for the guitar strings. Then we decorated it with star stickers from Ninang Jenny with Summer and voila!!!
Pag-uwi ni Summer, nagustuhan daw ni Ate Inday and mga teachers ang guitar nya. Sabi may prize daw sya kasi ang ganda ng guitar nya. I just don't know how true hehe.

Nice noh? Syempre, labor of love e! Sana ganyan pa rin kami ka-active sa school assignments pag turn na ni Winter.

Birthdays! Birthdays!

It's a Belated Happy birthday Ninang Nene! and Advance Happy birthday Baby Lisa! Party at Gazebo Royale.As usual, it was a night of eating, laughter and picture taking!
I so love the uni! I miss eating it so much since it was bawal while pregnant. I also love the chocolate fountain.

Lissa's boyfriend flew in from Netherlands and was interrogated by the uncles. Lissa was banned to come close to the table =).

Happy birthday!

Was it Jenjen's?

We watched 'You changed my life' at The Cinema at The Cabanas.All 9 of us, except for Daddy and Winter. Ang paalam ni Mommy kay Daddy ay sasaman si Jennjen kasi gusto nya mapanood. We were watching it at the same time Ate Joy was watching the premier in the US.

Was it really Jenjen?
