HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA J! BELATED....

father =D

for the times that you have been there before we can say we need you,
for the times you said i love you when we need to hear it,
for the times you gave us time despite that you are busy,
for the times you hug us so tight that we felt so protected,
for the times you just let us go but you still care,
for the times that your presence is more than enough...

thanks daddy allan. thank God you are the father of rain, summer and dawn and thank God, you are my husband! =D

i love you forever. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!!

Any man can be a father. It takes someone special to be a dad.

Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!

A father is always making his baby into a little woman.
And when she is a woman he turns her back again

You know, fathers just have a way of putting everything together

To her the name of father was another name for love.

happy father's day daddy =D

and happy father's day honey!
WE LOVE YOU!!!

siopao

ang bagong food trip ni rain and summer ....

siopao and slurpee ng 7-eleven

because of that, i have to schedule their siopao/ slurpee day
...it's every friday

so rain would always say....
thank God it's friday!
SARAP! =D

roll

i learned how to make ham and cheese roll when we went on vacay to batangas. ate gemma (allan's cousin), served us with these hearty sandwiches so i asked for the recipe...so, to break the monotony of our snacks, i made these sandwiches with my kiddo master chef summer =D

for the ingredients:

cheese should be sliced lengthwise
(i prefer the original one rather than the quick melt)

ham should be sliced lengthwise also. fry it first before slicing

del monte's sweet pizza sauce

1 egg, please beat =D

SO, HERE'S HOW TO DO IT:

spread pizza sauce to bread

add ham and egg (can you see them at the bottom?) =D
now roll then...

slice into two,

dip the roll,

roll it into breadcrumbs,
(thanks summie! =D)

then fry...

fry in low heat til its light brown.
serve hot and enjoy! =D

"A"

i was 18 years old when i joined a beauty contest. yes, it's funny but please give me a chance to explain =D =D =D

i learned then that there are two ways to smile. it's either you say A then smile, or say eight then smile. you have to try it while facing a mirror to know your angle. its good when the two ways would work for you. i know somebody who does.....

summer saying A

summer after saying 8...wasn't able to catch it....
she still look good =D

five

dawn turned five months last june 5. gee, its a fast journey and often times my wish is that time would slow down a bit so i can have my full satisfaction in her baby years. what i feel now is that i can never have enough of dawn. =D 

she's now 7.9lbs and her weight would often make my arms feel sore because i love to carry her. she has a good distribution of baby fats and she's already wearing clothes that summer wore when she was just 10 months old. on a side note, i find it impossible not to compare rain, summer and dawn as babies. not in a competitive way but just for comparison. 

i noticed that dawn is now good in bending her legs as she assumes a standing position. she would make my tummy as her base then would carry herself up. she's strong! she's now an expert roller and she can now move from the edge of the bed going to the other. i don't think crawling will be far off. 

awhile ago, while i was nursing her, she bit my nipples thrice. i can't help but cry on her third time (gawin daw bang teether ang nipple ko? huhuhu. poor me). i suspected that may be she's having a 

tooth but when i checked her gums, no sign of a tooth yet so, feel lang nyang mangkagat =D

dawn is the happiest, smiliest baby i had (she would smile with her whole body). when allan comes home, no matter how crappy his day has been, when dawn smiles at him, he can never resist her charm. that's why i arrived at an intuition that dawn will be labeled as the "daddy's girl" in the family =D 

she's starting to sit unassisted in her baby bath tub when she takes a bath. she would hold the side of her tub as if she never would want to let it go (i miss bathing dawn - never done so since i had my scald burn). when doing nothing, she would strongly wrap her hands around my fingers and she would direct it to her mouth. i tried giving her way once and i giggled when i felt her gums and tongue playing on my finger. (as allan would say, cute yun pag baby. pag matanda hindi na!) 

she started to eat solid foods. she loves banana and she could eat a whole and would still non-verbally ask for more =D rain and summer would often tease her to be the little monkey in the family but am sure that they sooooo love their baby sister. in fact, when they wake up in the morning, their instinct would be to look for dawn =D

as i am writing this, she's having her two hour nap and it's almost time for her to wake up. i am worried because she has colds (due to climate change - as in climate change talaga???) and she can hardly breathe at night that's why she gets so fussy. i hope can feels better soon. =D til next month =D 

thanks mama lina =D

happy 5th monthsary dawn =D

rain, dawn and summer

seriously hungry =D

story

it was a lazy afternoon. rain asked me to tell him an afternoon story. i bullied him and asked him to be the narrator instead. so here's rain's story...first time =D

title: THE PLANETS

one day, planet earth was in the sky with venus. then earth said, why am i big? because, you are not yet big said earth (?) i want to be big but you can't be big in a day. you have to exercise, drink water and eat healthy food and pray and then you can be big. venus said: earth, when i get big will you be with me? earth said, no more. if you will be big, you will have a girl friend when you work and you will be working in your daddy's office. one afternoon, the friends of venus went to visit him and asked, why are you so medium? because earth said, i'll grow bigger. the end.

=D kahit walang kwento, may kwenta! first time =D

avengers 2

at dahil nauso talaga ang avengers, pati na si summer nakiuso na rin. she asked me the other week kung pano daw i-spell ang avengers. i gladly spelled to her as she wrote each letter. magaling ang summer ko. at three years old, she was able to write this...

may peace sign pa talaga sya.
"magulo" ba sa room anak? =D =D =D

yay! turo ko yan =D ...well, her letter S just needs a little more practise =D

book

affected ako sa sinabi ni simon chan sa you tube na napanood ni allan lately. sinabi daw nya na poor people have big tv's while rich people have a big library. well, may be yes (after allan said that, tinitigan ko yung tv namin hehe). then i decided to check simon chan's website. when i watched him, isang bagay na sinabi nya ang tumatak sa isip ko...we should at least have an hour to read everyday.

FLASHBACK...so, after i gave birth to rain, i believe i have 30 minutes the most, to read each day. after i gave birth to dawn, nabuhay ang book life ko pero now, i have like 15-20 minutes reading time na lang. konti no? singit lang kasi yung time na yun. that's the time na nasa banyo ako and doing "my thing". sabi ko nga kay papa j, bestfriend aileen at jun presas, yung book ko nasa banyo. doon lang kasi ako nakakapagbasa ng walang di distorbo =D

well, since i was very much affected with this give-time-to-reading thingy, i decided to read again and i've started last night. yey! and here are again my books to read...

fave ko dyan yung MEMO NI MOMMY... have to read it over and over again para tumalab sa akin =D

bottle

natuwa naman ako the first time na makita kong nahahawakan na ni dawn ang kanyang bottle. parang ready na sya for bottle feeding. in that case, makaklakwatsa na ako! whoa!

i was there. i saw her..first time =D

my USANA baby =D

opps, it fell. try again baby =D 

sarap pala maging full time mom. nakikita mo lahat ng first time =D

monthsary

june 3. monthsary namin ngayon ng sugat/paso ko. sa lahat naman ng monthsary, eto ang pinaka sad. sa lahat naman ng relationship, eto yung gusto mo ng mag end, wag ng mag grow at wag ng maulit kasi nga, its complicated =D

well, matatapos na sana ang relationship namin ng sugat ko kaso dahil compulsive nga ako, naligo agad ako the moment na naramdaman ko na tuyo na sya. then, before ako maligo, nakamot ko pa kasi sobra ang kati nya. yung kati na may kasamang goosebumps! to make matters worst, nilanggasan ko pa ng bayabas kala ko kasi magwo work sa kanya. hindi pala. lalo pang lumala, nainfect ata. tama si lou, iba ang sugat ng paso sa sugat.

so to date, hindi pa rin ako magaling. wala pa rin akong social life at feeling bitter ako kasi hindi ako makakababa sa store tomorrow. sad. =C here are some of my friends who visited me. thanks guys for visiting! =D

my churchmates

thanks for coming guys!

feeling sexy ako...sasawsawan lang pala ni med
ng ham/cheese roll ang sugat ko =D

thanks sa pasalubong!

my elementary friends =D

thank you guys for coming =D

and for listening =D

sa uulitin =D

sana gumaling ka na. wag ka ng babalik ha ...
