@Doc Gracey, ano ano ba ang requirements na hinihingi sa re-certification? Zac doesn't like meat gusto nya lang fruits and veggies kasi siguro yung meat ay mejo grainy cya unlike ng fruit and veggies na smooth ang texture. Cute naman ni Maizy hehehe. Feeling ko magkasinglaki at taba lang sila ni Zac. Pansin ko hair nya, kaunti lang pero mahaba, si Zac, kaunti na maigsi pa lol!

Si Zac had his shots yester. Nakadalawang turok cya. I also received letter from Medicaid na na mawawalan na ako ng Emergency Medicaid this end of June. Nakalagay na reasons ay : Pregnancy Terminanted, Above yung income namin saka nakalimutan ko yung isa pang reason lol! Pero anyway, eto naghahanap kami ng insurance for me. I already expected naman na talgang mawawala na Medicaid ko pero I am very thankful and blessed at nakalusot ako kaya hindi naman masama loob ko kung mawala na yung Medicaid ko. Isa pa, kapag wala na akong Medicaid eh wala na rin kaming WIC :cry: hehehe.

Tom na lang ulit ako makikichika.

[/b][/color]

Si Maizy ayaw din ng meats nun but now sige sya. She has no preference for foods although I find that she finishes all fruit adn veggies with the exception of peas and peaches which takes her a while to finish. She practically gobbles up the rice or oatmeal cereal that goes with it. I give her meats at lunchtime. I only give her beef or turkey kasi nag-rashes sya with chicken. will try her on chicken again pag 6 months na sya. Finishing a 4oz bottle of baby food is nothing to her...takaw talaga :lol:

You can try Nature's Goodness' turkey in turkey brother. Is much less grainy than Beechnut's Turkey with turkey gravy. si Maizy, sa kamamadali nyang ubusin food nya, minsan nabilaukan sa Beechnut na turkey, but not with the beef. I give her milk with her food and not water. Saka ko na sya i-water when she's a little older. The water in her milk will keep her hydrated better than just water.

Went out yesterday to get Maizy's one-week WIC food supply. Found Beechnut Mango, Banana-Strawberry-Apple, Corn casserole, corn and sweet potatoes, mixed veggies and country mixed veggies. Also found banana-apple yogurt :) Gave her the mango --- she absolutely loves it! :yes: Lol...didn't know what 24 bottles of baby food looked like...was ridiculous :blink: But it saved us $13+ dollars in baby food :thumbs:

As for re-certification, same requirements as when you first applied for WIC...your yellow card plus hubby's last paycheck, Zac's crib card or BC and immunization record (I think), plus Zac, of course. We have ours in July sometime. Sana makapasa kasi lumipat ng trabaho si Hubby.

RR - have you tried mixing his cereal with his fruits/veggies? Did that with Maizy's food noon. One spoon of cereal mixed with fruit/veggies alternate with just the plain fruit/veggie. ngayon, di ko na hinahalo but ina-alternate ko yung sinusubong pagkain. Cereals provide some 40% of daily iron requirements.

Maizy isn't fat, as you've seen in the pics, but mabigat sya...siksik sa laman. Yes, humahaba na hair nya which allowed me to put a plastic clip on her hair when we went to church :) Nga lang, mas manipis buhok nya than her Ate. she got Daddy's hair...pati yung pagkatirik ng buhok :lol: Her favorite thing now, other than playing with her feet, is "talking" and making sounds similar to Spike the Gremlin :lol: "Halloween voice" nga tawag ng daddy nya. She can roll over from front to back, and reaches for everything around her. Moved her into a bigger bath tub so she can sit up better and play in the water with some toys after she has been washed. she likes the idea of "hide the Maizy" which is basically getting her wrapped up in her towel while Mommy excitedly says that she'll "hide the Maizy". She likes Play with Me Sesame, Yo Gabba Gabba, and Dora. She is watching Spongebob now (which I don't like really) while seated in her rocking chair and squealing.

Having a yard sale Sun-Tues (uulan kasi ng sat)...a baby/toddler sale :D I have a pack n play, several booster seats, bed rails, riding toys, kids' desks, swings, highchairs, even diapers, baby bottles, diaper genies, baby/toddler toys, activity tables, wipe warmers, bottle/baby food jar warmers, sterilizers, breastfeeding accessories/nursing pads, a pack-n-play, a johnny jumper, bathtubs, infant support slings, some baby boy clothes, and of course, baby girl 0-3 months clothes :) And others pa. Whatever we get out of this sale, gagamitin ng mama ko as spending money pag dating nya dito in Nov. :) Is quite hectic preparing for the sale. hanggang ngayon, di pa ako tapos mag-inventory :blush:

yesterday I was so happy to see another progress ni Ethan. Before, he would only do a couple of steps when you're holding his 2 hands and usually he's tiptoeing but this time he surprises me. I took him to the bathroom with me as I getting ready for work and when I was done I told him to stand up and he did and reach his one hand to me and started to walk. I thought it was just a one time shot so on that night I told my hubby to walk with Ethan and me capturing a video...

sweetdove, kaw ba yung kirsteen braza? maganada ka pala eh...hehehehe... no joke.

doc gracey, ah yun ba yung re-certification? you were talking about that before pero i didnt bother to ask kasi nahihiya ako baka mahalatang jologs talaga ako hahahaha... anyway, i already did that nung first appointment namin after kung manganak kasi raw nanganak na raw ako so yun they asked for those things na namention mo. bakit now lang sa inyo?

about naman sa food, today we bought food sa baby's r us...2nd food na yung pinili ko, i got him a dozen of chicken mix with something and beef mix with something...he ate naman yung chicken he almost ate one jar kaso di ko na pinaubos kasi baka masuka since it was chicken and brown rice. walang chunky pieces so nagustuhan nya. so far wala pa naman akong rashes na nakikita sa kanya after eating chicken i am not sure later.

I tried mixing the cereal before pero he didnt like it. I guess he will like it now but then I am not sure baka kasi masayang ulit. Sobrang nasayangan ako sa cereal isang maliit lang na spoon ang nagamit tapos di na nakain ang the rest till nag expired. Dati rin I give him water or prune juice but then ilang beses lang din sa ngayon hindi na kasi he can manage his poop na hehehehe then milk na lang din yung pinapainom ko sa kanya.

my baby never likes watching cartoons, pag nakaupo sya sa lap ko then nanonood ako ng tv mas naaaliw pa syang panoorin yung paa ko kaya ginagalaw galaw ko paa ko para at least makapanood ako ng tahimik hehehehe...ganun din sa bath time di ko na ginagamit yung thing for bathing kasi he moves a lot so everytime paliguan ko sya i just lay him on the tub pero di pa sya marunong mag sit kasi hehehehe... he is trying pag nasa floor sya pero wala pa talagang balance when it comes to sitting hehehe.

tanong lang doc gracey, where did you get those things na ibebenta mo? and is your mom has a visa na even before?

happy, you know gusto ko sanang magtanong lagi about sayo pero kasi baka mapressure ka kaya di na lang ako nagtatanong but i am excited for you.

kaibigan, welcome sa thread...i was 17 weeks nung nalaman namin ang gender ng baby namin.

sweetpink, galing naman ni ethan. tanong lang useful ba talaga yung walker? kasi gusto ko sana may walker baby ko but then baka di masyadong magamit and baka di masyadong mag roll yung gulong since carpeted yung sahig namin tapos medyo makapal pa... im like gusto ko pero parang ayaw ko... is it really useful or helpful?

God bless sa lahat.

@Zen Den, ang cute ni Matthew. Type ko yung pagkaputi nya saka yung smile nya sa second pic mo sa signature mo :)

@Rose, i-cherish mo habang baby pa cya kasi ang bilis talaga nila lumaki.

@Eve, yay! may ipin na si Jacob :dance: At what age ba pwedeng silang magtoothbrush? Wow! Sarap siguro ng feeling mo when you heard him say "mama" :luv:

@Chinesse_mutt, nanganak ka na ba? If you want pwede ka naman magpa-induce kung nahihirapan ka. Ang alam ko 39 weeks talaga ang pwede induce. Good Luck and praying for your safe delivery and a happy bouncy baby :D

@Doc Gracey, curious lang ako. Mahla ba mag-apply ng adoption? Thanks for the suggestion about Nature's Goodness. Kala ko naman kasi lahat ng brand eh grainy talaga ang meat. Kanina I was happy kasi nakain ni Zac yung peas. Nilulunok naman nya kahit nakasimangot mukha :lol: Yeah, I think Maizy isn't fat kaya ko lang nasabi na "taba" kasi feeling ko chunky din cya gaya ni Zac. Gusto ko sa baby yung ganyan mejo may makukurot ng unti sa sarap yakapin at pangigilan :) Good Luck sa yard sale sana mabili lahat :star:

@Sweetpink, galing galing ni Ethan. Konti na lang at magiging expert na cya :D I am so happy to see and witness his development pati sa paglalakad nya. Bilis ng developmet nya ha :D

@Davanj, ikaw din pla malapit na ang due date mo. Excited ka ba na may halong takot? hehe. Normal feelings lang yun pero pagandun ka na eh no choice ka na kundi umiri hehe. Pero sobrang saya nmn kapalit ng hirap na mararanasan mo.

@Rose19, magtake ka rin ng iron pills :)

@Kaibigan, welcome sa thread na to and congrats sa pregnancy :dance:

@Sweetdove, save mo yang mga tears of joy mo kasi baka kapag dumating na yung visa mo after the interview eh wala ng lumabas na tears hehe jk lang :D Usually, mabilis lang nmn ang K1. Sooner or later magugulat ka na lang at malapit na interview mo :thumbs:

@Happy, musta na buhay buhay? ano pla FB mo? :D

I just wanna share this website. I saw that on News. "I think" it is a good website because it provides affordable prices para sa mga taong walang insurance. You can even give your price pa nga eh then they would suggest a doctor.

Here is the latest pic of Zac. He is now 5 months old and half. Nakakaupo na cya ng unti kapag nakasuporta yung arms nya. SIguro tumatagal cya ng nakaupo ng mga 3 mins. Tapos yung sa walker nya ay gustong gusto nya yun. Lakad ng lakad na sa loob ng house. Nasusundan na ako sa kitchen hehe.

pink - we hired a lawyer for a total of $1250, plus around $400 for the Child Services home study and court fees. Now that we are nearing the end, we learned from the probate court that pwede naman pala na kami na lang ang lalakad ng adoption with no need for a lawyer. At the most, notary public lang kelangan namin. Could've spent just around $800 for everything :angry: Tapos, itong lawyer na humahawak sa kaso namin e trial lawyer pala and had no idea how to go about the adoption process. :bonk: syempre na-hire na namin sya at nabayaran na yung ibang fees nya nung malaman namin. If we had done it ourselves, malamang last year natapos na yung adoption ni Alec. There is just a lot of paperwork, tapos kelangan i-publish sa press na may ongoing petition for adoption. We paid $200 for that (published for 3 weeks). Bale tapos na lahat ng bayaran. soon as we get a certified copy of her new birth certificate, pwede na kami dumeretso sa Social Security to have her name changed on her SSN.

Nature's goodness is the cheapest baby food, too! :)

Si Alec, may bagong habit. yesterday lang nagstart. She has discovered some comfort in sucking in her lower lip over her gums. siguro makati yung gums nya. Lalo tuloy lumalaki pisngi nya kasi parang nakatago yung mouth nya when she does that. And I've discovered why she seems to choke on the grainy turkey --- madaldal kasi :lol: Habang sumusubo ng pagkain e sinasamahan ng daldal. Ayan tuloy, deretso sa lalamunan yung food. Fed her the rest of the turkey tonight. As always, daldal na naman sya. I'd interrupt her and she would stop and listen to me with her mouth open whereupon isusbo ko yung food nya at kakausapin sya and she just listens and begins to chew her food :)

Cute naman ni Zac...maski walang buhok :lol: Maizy doesn't want to walk much in her walker. Kung maglakad man sya, patalikod :blink: But hold her by both hands and she will walk, much to her father's delight. She spends some time in her exersaucer standing. Pag pagod na sya, she jsut sits and lazily spins one of the toys with one hand or just taps it with matching sigh. Minsan, I was in the kitchen and she was in the living room, nahuli kong nakatulog na nakasandal yung noo sa braso nya. Poor baby. At least, di umiyak like she usually does. LIke Zac, she can sit with her arms outstretched and her hands supprting her weight for a few minutes. I think that started around a week or so ago when I started sitting her up to change her clothes. naku...malapit na palang maitago yung bouncer nya and her bumbo :unsure: Once she sits up on her own, will start feeding her sa highchair nya. Sa ngayon, sa rocking chair nya ko sya pinapakain.

Hi mga mommies and mommies to be :)mga busy na tayo lahat dito.

Kaibigan- Welcome here and Congratulations. Buti at lampas ka na sa lihi time although di ko talaga alam how it feels kasi di ko naranasan yan before and I hope di ko pa rin nyan maranasan next time.

Happy-kamusta na. Yup lapit na kami umuwi...yay excited na ako. Busy na kahahanap ng pasalubong. Kanina bumili ako ng Ivory sampung bars for 3.59 sabi ng asawa ko kung pwede daw ba yon na pasalubong.Ok yon dami ng maghahati non :D

Pink- super masaya maluha luha nga ako. Pag tinatawag ako ni Jacob na mama..yong asawa ko sabay tanong" Ano feel mo na ba na mommy ka na" Kasi minsan parang ang hirap paniwalaan eh. Buti nakaka upo na si Zach...Mag rooo over ka kaya palagi para gayahin ka nya hehhehe.

Sweetdove- Wag masyado ma stress ..enjoy lang muna dyan sa Pinas...before you know...nasa airplane ka na nyan.

Regards sa lahat here....

pink - we hired a lawyer for a total of $1250, plus around $400 for the Child Services home study and court fees. Now that we are nearing the end, we learned from the probate court that pwede naman pala na kami na lang ang lalakad ng adoption with no need for a lawyer. At the most, notary public lang kelangan namin. Could've spent just around $800 for everything :angry: Tapos, itong lawyer na humahawak sa kaso namin e trial lawyer pala and had no idea how to go about the adoption process. :bonk: syempre na-hire na namin sya at nabayaran na yung ibang fees nya nung malaman namin. If we had done it ourselves, malamang last year natapos na yung adoption ni Alec. There is just a lot of paperwork, tapos kelangan i-publish sa press na may ongoing petition for adoption. We paid $200 for that (published for 3 weeks). Bale tapos na lahat ng bayaran. soon as we get a certified copy of her new birth certificate, pwede na kami dumeretso sa Social Security to have her name changed on her SSN.

Nature's goodness is the cheapest baby food, too! :)

Si Alec, may bagong habit. yesterday lang nagstart. She has discovered some comfort in sucking in her lower lip over her gums. siguro makati yung gums nya. Lalo tuloy lumalaki pisngi nya kasi parang nakatago yung mouth nya when she does that. And I've discovered why she seems to choke on the grainy turkey --- madaldal kasi :lol: Habang sumusubo ng pagkain e sinasamahan ng daldal. Ayan tuloy, deretso sa lalamunan yung food. Fed her the rest of the turkey tonight. As always, daldal na naman sya. I'd interrupt her and she would stop and listen to me with her mouth open whereupon isusbo ko yung food nya at kakausapin sya and she just listens and begins to chew her food :)

Cute naman ni Zac...maski walang buhok :lol: Maizy doesn't want to walk much in her walker. Kung maglakad man sya, patalikod :blink: But hold her by both hands and she will walk, much to her father's delight. She spends some time in her exersaucer standing. Pag pagod na sya, she jsut sits and lazily spins one of the toys with one hand or just taps it with matching sigh. Minsan, I was in the kitchen and she was in the living room, nahuli kong nakatulog na nakasandal yung noo sa braso nya. Poor baby. At least, di umiyak like she usually does. LIke Zac, she can sit with her arms outstretched and her hands supprting her weight for a few minutes. I think that started around a week or so ago when I started sitting her up to change her clothes. naku...malapit na palang maitago yung bouncer nya and her bumbo :unsure: Once she sits up on her own, will start feeding her sa highchair nya. Sa ngayon, sa rocking chair nya ko sya pinapakain.

RR - about the yard sale stuff...syempre from our fave store :D Of course, some items we got for free :)

We are sponsoring my mom's visa fee. She just got her new passport the other day so that she can now go to BDO to pay for her visa. My brother is sponsoring her plane ticket. Sabay sila dadating dito early November. An aunt and uncle of mine are flying in, too, around that same time in time for my stateside uncle and aunt's golden anniversary. Syempre, dito na mag-thanksgiving, pasko and new year. first time nya makakasama si Maizy, who'll probably be running around or walking by then. Don't know yet how long she will be staying...heck, she can stay the entire 6 months that she is alloted :whistle:

School's out...alec is home...thankfully. Mas makakakilos na ako...at least for the next 2.75 months :dance:
