Congratulations Kaye and Rick for the pregnancy!

RR - Buti naman at nakatulong ang jumperoo para di mo masyado kinakarga si Tyree. Tama ka about sa gamit ng babies no'ng unang panahon. Wala kami balak bumili ng walker, although medyo uso yan sa Pinas, yong "karang." :D Musta na pala recovery mo?

Pink - Ang bigat pala ni Zac, ano? Parang ilang lbs lang ang lamang ni Evie :D Natawa naman ako sa aso :lol: Naku, magro-roll over din yan si Zac. Lagay mo lang palagi sa sahig para free sya gumalaw. Kumakain na pala siya ng baby food :) Galing!

@Doc gracey, ang cute cute ni Maizy (pwera usog). Lam mo may t-shirt din si Zac na kagaya ng suot ni maizy sa pic. Yung suot nyang pink na may Peter Rabbit, kaya lang kay Zac ay green naman hehe. Ganda pala ng goodwill sa inyo, kasi dito konti lang baby stuff. Dapat dadaan kami ni Greg after grocery shopping last Sunday sa Goodwill eh kaya lang biglang sumama pakiramdam nya kaya ayun di tuloy kami nakatingin.

@RR, kasi dito sa aminsa Indiana malamig kaya walang yard at garage sale kapag fall at winter. Uso lang cya kapag spring lalo na summer. Buti pa sa inyo kukunin nyo na lang at libre pa hehe. Ako naman dati nilabas ko yung pumpkin ko nung Halloween kasi nag-iba na isip ko at ayaw ko na magcarve, ayun may kumuha naman :D

Si Zac may walker na. Regalolang nung baby shower. Pinagiisipan nga namin kung bibili pa ba naman cya ng bumbo seat eh. Ewan ko ba kung dapat pa kasi bibilan din cya ng exersaucer. Sabi naman kasi ng asawa ko ba't pa bibilan ng bumbo seat eh dati naman natututo ang batang umupokahit walang bumbo seat. Pero gusto ko si Zac magkaroon noon, ewan! kumbinsihin ko pa cya hehe.

@Brijo, cool! My hubby can't wait to go camping with our son too. We also have Smokey Mountain in the Philippines but you can't camp there because it is loaded with trash :D So how do they treat GD?

@Sweetpink, galing naman ni Ethan :D Ask ko lang, magkano per session ng swimming lesson nya? Si Zac since maliit pa eh hanggang timba muna cya :lol:

@Te Riza, ok naman si Zac except that he likes scratching his face. La pa rin sign ng roll over, ewan ko lang kung magroroll-over cya :( Buti pa yung aso namin marunong magroll-over lol!

@Eve, sa'yo din ako magaask ng maraming tanong kapag mag-aapply na kami ng passport ni Zac ha :D

@Marybeth, oo mahirap din talaga yung iba ang nag-aalaga sa baby as much as possible masmaganda kung mommy talaga ang mag-aalaga. Pero buti naman at nakahanap ka ng job sa panahon ngayon :)

We just got home from WIC at hindi si Zac binigyan ng baby food kasi 4 1/2 months pa lang cya. Pag six months na daw cya bibigyan. Kaya ayun kami bibili ng baby foods nya pero binigyan kami ng Cereal ng WIC hehe. Last night ay bumili na asawa ko ng Beech Nut na brand. Gusto naman cya ni Zac except yung meat flavors. Natuwa pa naman ako kasi may chicken pero ayaw ni Zac eh kasi siguro mejo grainy cya compare sa fruits and veggies. Feeling ko 17lbs. na si Zac kasi bumigat cya.

pink, you dont need a bumbo seat na kung bibili kau ng exersaucer for your baby but if may walker na kau i dont think kailangan pa na may exersaucer si zac...and for me lang ha kung may walker na si zac yun na lang gamitin nyo...kasi exersaucer is just a bit the same as walker yun nga lang yung walker gumugulong so mas mag eenjoy si baby dun kasi he can go to whereever he wants and since si zac madaling lumaki im sure he can manage to be in the walker na. about sa bumbo seat di masyadong nagagamit kasi my baby doesnt want to stay there for a long time...sometimes it helps but not for a long time.

there are times ayaw nya sa jumperoo...madali kasi syang magsawa sa mga bagay bagay... pero nakakatawa sya sa jumperoo kasi sometimes he bounce and played so much na para syang nagsasayaw ang bilis ng galaw ng mga paa nya. karang nga tawag sa pinas nyan i remember yung bamboo na walker na walang wheels or yung parang walker ang dating na bamboo walker din hehehehe...

nakita ko sa video mo sa blog na si evie was pushing a laundry basket ba yun so definitely di nyo na talaga kailangan ng walker...the basket will do na..hehehehe

okay naman ako...too bad di na ako umiinom ng ensure kasi i can eat na...but for now i dont want to eat and chew food like yung mga beef or anything na kailangan ichew talaga...

about sa baby ko... kahapon he was laughing so hard yung tawa talaga na pang baby kasi my hubby was coughing kasi nabilaukan sya then yun my baby started to laugh so much sayang nga lang wala na videohan...though he laugh sometimes but yesterday he laughed for a long time. And I noticed sa baby ko he doesnt really like cartoons na pambata...he like aqua teen hunger force or yung mga robot chicken...then he likes yung mga real people din sometimes sumasagot pa sya feeling nya sya ang kinakausap...and he also like animals shows. about his attitude rin...yup may attitude na rin hehehehe.

God bless sa lahat.

hello sa lahat,

tanong ko lang anong months ba natutong umupo baby ninyo? my baby doesnt know how to sit by his own yet pag pinapaupo ko naman sa bumbo seat walang ibang gagawin kundi abutin ang paa nya para ipasok sa bibig.

update sa baby ko: today he started to do the crawling position na... more practice na lang sana when he will be five months na eh makakacrawl na sya hehehehe nangangarap talaga ako noh. binili na rin namin sya ng floatie kaso wala kaming nakitang floatie for like 4 months or up puro for 1 year old to up yung mga floatie kaya yun na lang binili namin. di pa namin nasubukan sa pool sa bath tub pa lang at yun napasigaw sya nung nilagay namin sya sa floatie kasi nashock sa floatie hahahaha...God bless sa lahat.

Woohooo! I am proud to say na nagroll-over na si Zac :dance::dance::dance: Yung pagroll-over na ginawa nya last May 6th @11pm ay yung front to back :D Yehey! Kala ko di na magroroll-over cya :D sobrang saya ko nun at palakpak ako ng palakpak :lol: Saya pa lang feeling kapag may achievement na ginawa baby mo :D Kala ko late ang development nya in terms of roll-over pero nabasa ko na ang pagroll-ove pla ay til 6 months so ayun, guminhawa na pakiramdam ko LOL!

@Te Riza, sana lang masmagalingan pa ni Zac sooner ang pagroll-over compare aso namin :lol:

@RR, yan nga din iniisip ko eh. aka madobledoble lang gastos, pero kung may mahanap kami na kading mura nung kina Doc Gracey why not di ba? hehe Si Zac naman mahilig sa cartoons. Lam nyo ba last month the whole family watched the movie "The Collector". Horror cya, pero the whole time ay titig na titig si Zac sa TV at talagang pinanood nya hanggang matapos yung movie. Tapos after few days bumili kami ng DVD ng Avatar. Kala namin manonood ulit si Zac pero dinedma lang nya yung Avatar hehe. Gusto nya yung horror :bonk: Eh nanood lang ako ng horror kapag may kasama akong manonood eh :D.

Si Zac di pa din nakakaupo. Nakakaupo lang cya kapag nakasandal hehe.

@Marybeth, huwow! Ang cute naman ni baby mo. Laki nyang boy ha :D Nakakatuwa pa yung hat nya :D

@Sweetpink, ok naman pala ang price. Affordable cya :thumbs:

Mga mommies, any dates on Mother's Day? Asawa ko may pasok tom na dapat ay off cya kaya ayun, mag-isa lang ako sa Mother's day :wacko:

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL! Sarap ng feeling ng maraming greetings ng Happy Mothers day kala ko noon hanggang taga greet nalang ako sa mga mommy.

My baby is doing fine, mag 2 months na sya this 16th at start na sya ng immunization sa 21st. Binili narin namin sya ng swing pero di unti unti palang nyang ina appreciate, minsan nakakatulog sya dun pero sandali lang. Di narin ako masyadong hirap sa gabi kasi he sleep around 11-12 then gising nya 5 or 6am na. Sarap talaga tulog ng mga babies kapag they sleep on their stomach. Takot din ako minsan due to SIDS but I always keep my eye on him. I put him on his side pero kusa syang nag ro roll over kaya hinahayaan ko nalang kasi dun sya mas komportable. I tried many times to put him on his back pero mayat maya gising na sya. He started to say "cooo" already when I talk to him. Can't wait to hear his big laugh.

Dumating narin pala period ko exactly 6 weeks after I gave birth. Feeling ko nga parang maaga kasi nabasa ko dati dito yung ibang mommy ang tagal bago datnan.

Pink congrats at nag roll over narin si Zac. Si Letcher di pa kaya from his back pero kapag naka side sya kaya na nya. At malikot na rin syang matulog, kasi tinatabi ko sya sa bed minsan at ino occupied lahat ng space.

Rose laki na ng baby mo ah. Lalong lumaki sa suot nyang jeans.

Share ko lang pic ni Letcher on his favorite sleeping position
