"Mommy"



After being called as a girlfriend, fiancé, bride and wife, the next role that every woman will hold is a mom. Definitely, the word “mommy” is music to our ears, especially those carrying their first child. When we realized that I was already carrying our first child, my husband started calling me “mommy”. Nothing beats that, as of now... Probably until this little Javier comes out from my tummy and can finally call me “mommy.”

Whether called mom, mother, mommy, mama, nanay or inay, the role of being a mom doesn’t vary and starts first thing you realize that you’re pregnant. Though still inside our tummies, we need to make sure that we eat right, drink our meds and move a little slowly. Staying healthy is the best way we take care of our babies until they come out and see everybody.

It feels good that as early, someone calls you “mommy” – the title I will hold for the rest of my life. We’re halfway there – we’re getting more excited especially now that I can feel our baby moving inside my tummy. I’m carrying God’s best gift and nothing beats being called “Mommy”.

To all moms, happy mother’s day! (Well, belated) To my mommy, you’re still the best mom! I hope I’ll be the second best :)

To all moms-to-be like me, let’s claim it! We are already mommies :) Happy Mother’s day!

It's a Girl!

Finally after 30 weeks, Lester and I are happy to announce that we are having a baby GIRL! It took that long because we’re the kind of couple who’s obedient to the OB- have ultrasound when needed. Last time we checked, the OB did not confirm Little Javier’s gender though she told us that this little one is most likely a baby girl. Lester was still positive to have a baby boy- he still has 40-30% chance. But hey, it doesn’t matter- after all, we can still make another one :).  It must be the genes- my mom gave birth to 5 children- 4 of us are girls and our youngest is a boy (can you just imagine how Little C feels when he’s at home?). Lester was already dreaming of playing with his little one, teaching how to play PS, bike and all those boy stuff while I was already imagining cooking, baking and doing girly stuff with our little Javier- and I won! I remember when I was still on my first and second trimester, I was so into little things for girls that when I go to the mall’...

Project Hennessy: Gate

Okay, I must admit, I am still lazy to choose photos for our wedding photo album. These days, I've been spending time surfing the net to do my research on designing our house. Yes, my husband and I have been planning this since last year and finally, we're almost there. I learned a lot from my parents in planning our house. Just last year, 6 months before I got married, my family moved in to a beautiful home not far from our old house and a year before the transfer, I saw how my mom and dad prepared for this milestone. They spent weekends in hardware and home furniture shops and used their free time surfing the net to get ideas designing the house. While Lester and I were in the search of looking for house, my dad introduced me to Houzz.com . It's like a magazine full of house design ideas all over the world. I downloaded the app last year and did a little browsing. For a while, I forgot about this app and was busy preparing for our wedding. And time flew so fast, now ...

First Plane Ride

Do you remember the first time you rode the plane? Nowadays, it’s very easy for kids to experience their first plane ride as fares are cheaper. Thanks to budget airlines that once had a vision that every person can ride a plane once in their lives. I took my first plane ride when I was 5 years old. Lucky to experience that young, I was with my mom and my sister when all of us rode the plane for the first time to travel. I had no idea what was this travel is all about, even did not have any knowledge where we’re going. All I knew was that, we’re riding the plane and we were going somewhere far where my dad studied his Master’s degree. Not all kids, during that time, had that chance. And definitely, not all kids had the chance to travel to Europe so I am most thankful to my lola (who’s in US) who gave us this opportunity. Here’s my picture back then. We had a stopover in Hongkong Airport and this innocent kid asked her mom why we were getting down the plane. My mom answered...
