today's accomplishment

we've managed to lessen our little girl's fear of trying to walk. i am just a firm believer that i should not push my baby to do things when she's not ready. she skipped crawling, she just wasn't interested in doing so. her vocabulary skills are great though.

even if she's a little late in her motor development, we're still very proud of her.

(she has learned to pull up into a standing position in just two days)

happy weekend!

our little talker

yep, words are piling up in the little girl's head. It seems that she has new words on a daily basis. out of all the things she can already say, my favorite would be:

"mommy"

it makes my heart melt.

hope everyone had a great thursday. goodnight!

on a wednesday

we're staying at my parents' house for the whole week because adam needs to fly to tacloban for work. even though it is just an overnight job, i still miss him a lot. bean misses him too, screaming "daddy" whenever she sees the car, just like every normal day he comes home from the office.

during the times we visit, we stay in my old room (of course, this house is where i grew up) and i couldn't help getting sentimental at times. one thing i had then was time for myself. don't get me wrong, i love being married and i do not lack personal space; also, i love being a mom to a very lovely daughter. maybe i just miss college where i get to see friends almost everyday. certainly, i miss taking pictures or planning shootsnfor myself. definately, i miss being young because even if i don't want to admit it, i am feeling a little bit old.

adam will be here in a few hours. bean is already fast asleep. i love that i have them for keeps 'til forever. just the thought of that wipes the blues away.

fairy

yesterday was a holiday, so me and my husband had the whole day to spend with our little princess. our goal for now is to help her learn how to walk. she used to be very interested, now she's afraid. she doesn't really show it since she smiles a lot, but we can tell by the way she holds our hands, or when she sits down when we let go.

one thing i find fascinating about her is her addiction to flowers. she loves picking them, collecting, and just stares at them. so we made her a crown out of flowers just for fun.

i think she loved it, she didn't want to take it off!

time to sleep now,

good night!

Road Trip

today, we went to tagaytay for lunch. it's a approximately a three-hour drive, and not the first road trip we've had with bean. what's different this time is that she has her own seat in the car. law enforcement isn't so strict here in our country that's why i've managed to just hold her while in the car for so long. now that she's growing up, we figured it's time for her to learn a little independence (we've also discussed that her safety is most important). since she just started sitting on her booster seat, she needs a little more time to adjust. she just gets cranky when she runs out of things to do.

bean was behaved for the first hour and then fell asleep. she woke up after fifteen minutes and sat on my lap until we got to army navy for lunch.

i devoured a big burrito, adam had a double burger, bean had fries.

on our drive back, she slept the almost the whole time (in her seat) and woke up happy :)

happy weekend!
