MY GODMOTHER'S BABY SHOWER

It was my Ninang ("godmother) Bles Cuaycong's baby shower today! Together with my parents and yaya ("nanny") Nida, we met up with my Tita Marge and Tito Jvic, Tita Neva and Tita Dan - and my godbrother David! We had lunch in a restaurant called the Stock Market in Bonifacio High Street. It has been a loooong time since I last saw David - last time was during my baptism! We had a fine time catching up.

David and I "ran" into each other in High Street, with our yayas in tow! Heehee!

I'm not really grabbing David's shirt, see? I just need to hold on to someone because I'm not quite steady on my feet yet!

I can do short bursts of speed though!

(My Opa and Oma got me my shorts and shoes, while my Ninang Bles got me those socks!)

David has a wardrobe change. I would have to get in touch with his Mommy for the details!!!

My Ninang Bles is expecting a little girl.

Look at all the pink stuff everyone got her! Ewww!!!

After the baby shower, I "drove" away in my new car! Teehee!

This is the big present I got from my parents for my 1st birthday.

My dad has a remote control he uses to steer the car, while I sit there all pretty.

I sometimes think my daddy enjoys this toy as much as I do!!!

(My Tita Ina Alazas got me that tee! I had to change before we left since I got all sweaty running around with David!).

NOT SO LUCKY

Papu's still away! (See my previous entry here!). Today, I went to Megamall with my Mamu, Ninog ("godfather") Lucky Alcuaz, and my yaya ("nanny") Nida. Mamu and Ninong Lucky were hoping to buy plane tickets. There's a big sales promo in Megamall for travel and airplane tickets. (Megamall is this gigantic mall in Manila). Alas, there were just too many people, my Mamu and godfather gave up and we all went home. Also, since my Papu still wasn't in town, we didn't bring his camera again (sigh, too heavy - if only I were bigger!) so I DON'T have a picture of my day - just my outfit when my Mamu prepared it before we headed out! Ugh. (Though I do have a picture of me and my Ninong Lucky in his mobile phone!). I wish Papu would come home already. (He's scheduled to fly back to Manila tomorrow - yay!).

Check out the new kicks - my Opa and Oma got me new shoes.

They're still big for me (like most of my stuff!) but I always need shoes that are a size or two bigger because, er, I have really fat feet.

Come to think of it, my Opa and Oma got me not just those shoes but the hat and shorts as well, teehee.

My Tita Ina Alazas, my Mamu's sorority sister, got me that tee!

It glows in the dark - see here!

Tee - Carter's; Shorts - Moose Kids from SM; Cap - from SM; Shoes - Florsheim Kids

ROBOTS IN THE DESPEDIDA

Today was my Uncle Amiel's despedida ("farewell") party! Uncle Amiel is my Mamu's only brother. He's flying back to the U.S. where he's studying, so my Opa and Oma hosted a small despedida lunch at their house with her cousin Lolo Ferdie (my grand uncle!), Lola Irene, Aunt Bianca, and Uncle Rapha. I really like my Aunt Bianca - she wants to baby-sit me!!! My Uncle Amiel got a bit choked up, especially at the thought of leaving me behind, but hey, he and his girlfriend Mary might come visit next year - and I'm going to be ringbearer in their wedding the year after that! Hurrah!

My Papu picked out and bought that tee for me - all by himself!

(Mamu was pleased).

My Lolo Ferdie and Lola Irene got me that bib, while my Ninang ("godmother") Pam Buen brought me home that striped burp cloth on a trip to the States.

Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen a robot before!!!

I got passed around like a hat again, from one relative to another!

See how thick my hair has grown! I even have a little cowlick, hehe.

Tee - Gingersnaps; Navy blue shorts - Baby Armstrong; Sandals - Florsheim Kids; Bib - Kladd by Ikea; Burp cloth - Carter's

ON TWO

I've been becoming really steady on my legs lately! I think I'm THIS close to walking, I really do. I've decided to skip crawling altogether - so boooooring. It makes me impatient. But I do love it when my folks prop me up on my legs - I can take a lot of wobbly steps already - with a LOT of support, of course. Here I am with my Papu at my pediatrician's clinic again, for my monthly check up. Notice the new sandals my Mamu got me - thick rubber soles, all ready for walking! My parents have a hard time taking my picture these days - everything turns out fuzzy because I'm moving around so much (my Mamu calls me a flutterbudget). Hello, shutter speed, please try to keep up then!

I think I also grew a teeny weeny potbelly this month!

Finally, I sit still.

(My Tita Ina Alazas got me that tee. It glows in the dark! I wore it on a road trip to Subic before!)

Doing the macarena! Sort of! Hihi!

LITTLE DUDE

"It was my third monthsary last February 28, and my Mom and Dad took the day off to take me to my doctor and to finally go malling!!! My folks decided it was time for me to go out and explore! I wore a navy blue tank top with a picture of a van with surfboards. The shirt had a print that said "little dude" - which I really am. I also wore my Tommy Hilfiger shorts which my parents bought at Greenhills - I don't know what or where Greenhills is, but my parents always seem so excited to go there. My shoes were an impulse buy by - who else - my Mom. It was okay though, she said that it was only 80 pesos at the Landmark. The insides of my sneakers are very soft and I like them very much. I'm a little dude!!

- Hugs from DAVID!"

NORTHERN INVASION

I set out on my first road trip up North on Valentine's Day. We drove down to Clark for the hot air balloon fiesta, and went to Subic as well - my first time to see the ocean! Though I did NOT go near the water - I haven't gotten my sea legs quite yet! (In fact, not much use of my legs, period. I still prefer to be carried, teehee - I can't even crawl yet! My Opa and I wandered down the beach together - we have a picture by the beach here). My Lola Lorna got me that sweater - she got me tons! Those denim shorts from my Oma - they look like pants, I know, but my Mamu insisted I wear them. I got my tee from my Tita Ina Alazas - the little animals glow in the dark, aren't they neat? My Tita Nicka Osaka, Tita Margie Pegels, Tita Tammy Aquino, Tita Ange Lim, Tita Ann Bautista and Tita Hazel Humagit - my Mamu's sorority sisters - chipped in to buy me a bunch of baby shoes. How do you like my sneakers - they match my Papu's!
