Clapping while watching Barney.
Wearing his toy on his head. (Daddy made him do that.)
Our cyber-athlete. (Actually, we’re waiting for him to type in some numbers so we can bet on the lotto ;D. He was able to key in lots of Q’s and A’s only.)
He’s trying to buckle himself up on his stroller. Kaaliw tingnan.
I love this picture of my baby. It looks as if he’s really posing for the camera. I love that hint of a smile. So adorable.

Another tooth is coming out. My baby’s left lower side tooth is popping out. He’s 9months & 3weeks, and he already has 5 teeth.
Little boy had his first ice cream. The ice cream was actually mine, but i just had to share it with him. I think he liked it.
…likes watching Dora The Explorer. Should I allow him to watch more Dora? Isn’t Dora for girls only?
…laughs with delight everytime he see’s the computer screen starting up. Future programmer or future gamer?
…enjoys a little of Barney.
…loves Mickey Mouse. When you ask him “Where is Mickey Mouse?”, he will look at Mickey’s poster. When you ask him “Where is mommy?”, deadma. ;0
…loves to stand.
…squeals a lot, especially during meal time.
…cannot be bothered when watching advertisments on TV.
…smiles when he sees Mel Tiangco and Mike Enriquez on TV.
…watches GMA-7 Flash reports. Future reporter?
…smiles when he sees the Daisy Siete title on TV. (Yaikks! Walang mapanood si mommy sa hapon.)
…likes the StarWorld station ID.
…likes to eat real food. He never really liked the texture of bottled baby foods, so we had to add cereal to make them more lumpy.
…grabs whatever he can put his hands on, then puts them in his mouth.
…smiles a lot… to girls.
…likes to be with people. Stranger-friendly, lalo na kung pretty lady. Chick boy!
…dances. Responds to music by rocking and waving his hands.
…likes different sounds. Laughs out loud when he hears a torotot or the potpot of tinapay vendor.
…imitates cough (he’s been doing this for a long time na, paawa effect) and clicks tongue.
…thumbsucks. Sometimes, handsucks and footsucks (di makuntento sa thumb). ;P
…claps.
…close-opens.
…nagdadabog when not allowed to do what he likes, as in with matching cry and sigaw.
…laughs when mommy sneezes (kunwari lang, just to make him laugh). He likes sneezing so much. We saw a cartoons on Disney Channel about a dog (parang si Goofy) who is sick. So this dog sneezes and sneezes, and everytime the dog sneezes, my baby laughs so hard, as in. He was laughing so hard and so loud the entire show.
…still wakes up at midnight for his milk. Goes back to sleep after his milk.
…smiles when he wakes up, especially if he had a good sleep. If sleep is bitin, wala sa mood.
…nanggigigil.
…sleeps on his own.
…is my two front teeth, my two front teeth…
Estong’s two upper front teeth are popping out!
And he’s eating a lot of different foods already – tinola, sinigang, nilaga, potatoes and carrots in chicken afritada, boiled carrots, big mac (bread only), french fries (once)
I chanced upon this while browsing the net.
How To Really Love A Child
Be There.
Say “yes” as often as possible.
Let them bang on pots and pans.If they’re crabby, put them in water.
If they’re unlovable – love yourself.
If they’re not nice – YOU be nicer.Realize how important it is to be a child.
Go to a drive-in theater in your pajamas
Read books out loud with joy.
Invent pleasures together.
Remember how really small they are.
Surprise them.
Say “no” when necessary.
Bake a cake and eat it with no hands.
Plan to build a rocket ship.
Imagine yourself magic.
Make lots of forts with blankets.
Let your angel fly.
Reveal your own dreams.
Search out the positive.
Keep the gleam in your eye.
Mail letters to God.
Encourage silly.
Plant licorice in your garden.
Stop yelling.
Express your love.
A LOT.
Speak kindly.
Paint their tennis shoes.
Handle with caring.
CHILDREN ARE MIRACULOUS!
Nice. I think I should read this more often.
December 31st, AM
Went to the grocery to buy chicken and other items for media noche
Then went to Healthy Options to get Estong’s cereal
Afternoon, in our messy living room
Estong cries everytime he hears the loud noises. I tried putting cotton balls in his ears. Though it didn’t help, he seemed to be enjoying it ;p Oh, daddy has cotton balls in his ears, too. hehe
It’s bedtime! Estong wearing his new pajama, a gift from cousins Jaymart and Jason. By now, he already got used to all the noises and was able to sleep.
Happy new year baby! Little boy awaken from deep slumber.
Our first family picture for 2006.
Showcasing my cooking powers – our simple but filling media noche, spaghetti, bread, hotdogs, chicken and ham. In fairness, masarap ang spaghetti ko. (Del Monte Garlic and Herb lang yan, hehe) Estong was able to eat the bread only.
Estong changed into his sando. Init sa bahay, all our windows are closed because of the smoke from the firecrackers.
Tired and sleepy little prince.
Welcome 2006!!!
