flu week

We are all hit with flu. Poor little doll baby is having a difficult time sleeping. Had her checked up last thursday morning. To ease her nose congestion, she was prescribed with a salt solution drops and to use a nebulizer. Poor thing. But that makes her comfortable.

She was so moody. She wails when she wants to be held and she cries with tears quietly when noone is paying her some attention. But now she is a bit well, she is back to her cute sweet little self.

I'm on FB!

I know it's way too late for a shoutout like that. I ignored FB for the longest time, and now that I am in, there are lots of catching up to do. Not only with connecting with friends, don't get me wrong Friendster has kept me and will keep me connected, but the games in FB will get you addicted. I only am fond with one at the moment, YoVille. Wow, visiting other people's pad made me drool. Ganda! I like Glaiza's and Sheila's so far. Glaiza's is super complete, I didn't say she's addicted to it, I only said that all her rooms are super complete and overly super nice. =) Playing the game made me miss Dollwar. It is so sad that the site is no longer available.

Uh oh, my Ecs is waking up again. She has been waking up for the slightest noise. But she smiles more often, cooes more often. We now play together! I do the talking and singing and miming, all she does is smile, and that is enough to make my day.

Love my doll baby.

strolling at the park

Ecai turned 3 months old last Aug 8. We originally planned to celebrate at Luneta Park, inviting some relatives and some friends. But too bad, it rained the entire week, typhoon kiko ravaged.

Anyway, when the sun looked like it is going to shine we still went, Ecai, Inay, Jut and I. Miss you Mumu. We went and expected to stay by the bay. Err, the Oceanarium was there! No more seaside! I didn't know. So did Jut. I was in Singapore and Jut was in UK and Inay was err, spending her time at home or malling with Ate Ana, Glai, Tita Ne and Paolo. So we ended up just strolling.

Flags were at half-mast, symbolic respect for the death of former President Aquino.



The wind was gusty. My hair was everywhere.


There was a little drizzle before we went home. And off again to go to see Mausi. Too many pics, I'll load some when I have some more free time.

Ciao for now.

Salamat, President Cory

Sorrow is in the air. Today is the internment of the 11th president of the Philippines and mother of Philippine democracy, Cory Aquino.

Gratitude will always be there for her. She has made every Filipino proud. Watching the news, I was amazed to how many lives she has touched. And how she lifted everything to God. Heaven must really love her, the weather is gloomy and rain is drizzling, like the sky is shedding tears.

People lined the streets to pay last respect. She, a very gentle and calm natured person, could ignite the hearts of thousands, reaching out to any class or status. Her legacy will leave on...

harry made me go solo, not once but twice

It was the movie. I watched Harry Potter's 5th and latest movie alone. I watched both on the first day on the first MF. It was easier, not that hard to spot a seat for one.

Am not one of those who got disappointed with the latest movie. In fact, I am pretty much pleased. When I read the book, it was a sad sad story. But when I watched the movie, I saw the light and young side of the lead characters, their lines were young and witty. The effects were so nice. I would never have thought that the muggle's bridge was destroyed like that. Just that there were really some scenes that if I remember correctly, didn't happen that way.

Nothing more, just posted my fondness,errr love for HP series.

a dream is a wish your heart made

I believe that dreams come true. And that they are whispers of the heart.

As I watch my baby sleep, I wonder what her dreams are about. She smiles, and now she also frowns. Inay told me that this is because angels are playing with her. Anymore reasons?

With Ecai's sleeping cycle, she sleeps almost the entire morning. Wakes up to feed, that is every two hours. She then wakes up at 10pm and will sleep at past 1am. And when awake, if she's in a good mood, she now knows how to interact, can you believe she already laughed at asel's and jut's funny faces and sounds. And oh, she follows my lead when we invite poop.

Love my baby girl.

PS. I received a blog award from Gwacie. She's a girltalker and a talented digiscrapper. (Sori sis, I am not able to follow the rules of the award.) People, head on to her blog, her layouts are something not to be missed. Thanks again Gwacie

my girl

Ecai is turning 3 mos, can you believe it? I do. I am guilty for wishing that she grow up a wee-bit faster.

Took her pictures some time ago and was only able to make this layout so far. Elements are from some kits I downloaded over a year ago.

When she turned one month, her hand found its way to her mouth. I go crazy whenever I see her sucking her thumb, nibbling her fingers, and even gnawing her fists and arms! I head over and googled,err, yahoo fanatic here, so I yahooed remedies for her addiction. I found relief when I read that this is a childs' way of finding comfort by their own. So from now on, let her be.
