Living Mye Life

It’s baby Nathan’s 6^th month and we’re so excited that he reached his 6^th month as a healthy, cheerful and happy baby. I met with my sister in SM Sucat to buy his cake and I almost run out of cake flavours to choose from so I settle for an ordinary cake where you can put enough messages for Nathan. I can only smile when the crew showed me the cake with the icing dedications showing Happy 6^th birthday instead of 6^th month but he hurriedly fixed it and put Happy 6^th month birthday instead. Ha-ha!

Hubby came home late but he said he will make it up one day. He’s just too busy at his work and with lots of adjustments on their projects. I can’t believe Nathan can be this big and jolly after 6 months. He can now sit and stand for a few seconds and he now knows how to hold if he thinks he’ll fall. With all the picture taking and a special dinner, I am so happy knowing that we come this far raising our baby Nathan.

Nathan’s first time in Mall of Asia happened last Saturday.  At first we initially planned to visit our old house in Pasay because our neighbor kept on asking for him.  But since it was searing hot and we can’t do anything except watched on TV we decided it’s time for him to hit the mall.  And he did it! He kept on looking everywhere and he was an observer! If he wants to sleep he will just whined for his milk and that’s it, he’ll sleep in our arms. And then wakes up with a smile on his cute little face. What a baby! 

I’m so proud with our baby, and we are all happy for him. We will try to do it again sometimes but we shouldn’t forget his stroller, sometimes he wanted to lay down and just play.  

It was baby Nathan’s vaccine day for his pneumo vaccine and I take a leave at work to have a follow up check in my OB- Gyne.  I bathe him early and he was happy as we walk outside our house to get a cab.  Aubrey and Mico come with us and they patiently wait for our turn as they play with baby Nathan.  His pediatrician said Nathan is advance on his age because of so many he can do that at his age right now. She asked us some questions regarding Nathan’s eating habits, if he cries too often and others and was surprised to see that Nathan are happily moving his feet forward when prompt to walk. 

When it’s time for his shot, I held him on my lap and his doctor took a shot on his left thigh.  He cried but when the doctor lifted him he suddenly stopped crying so the doctor said “you’re a big boy now!” I proudly look at my baby whose now playing with a plastic ball his pedia gave him.  The shots will continue evey month but I know even with the slight fever after, my brave baby will pull it through.  

I surprised hubby with a birthday cake that I hide very well in a cabinet after he sent me a text that he’s coming home.  I intend to show it to him when the clock strikes 12mn.  The oldies can’t wait for it anymore so I asked Mico (his nephew) to entertain his Tito Jhon in the room while I asked hubby if he wants coffee which he said yes. So I prepared the cake and wait for the time before I called them out down stairs.

Hubby was surprised he never saw the cake box and I told him I’m good in hiding.  We sing a happy birthday song and he blew the candle.  And we ate the cake away, what a midnight snack!

Happy, happy birthday hubby! You know how much we love you and we will be forever grateful on your kindness. I wish you all the love and happiness in this world.  I love you, haney! 

My niece finally graduated from elementary and I’m so proud that Aubrey Reine finished schooling without any problems at all.  I wake up early to be her official photographer for the day and I’m a bit late going to their school but I know, with a public event like this, the program started late as usual because of they keep on waiting for the politician guest but that gave me time taking pictures of her with her classmates and close friends.

My brother told me to buy cake for her while Mom cooked pansit and fried chicken.  But Aubrey asked permission from me if I can allow her to join her classmates going to Mall of Asia after their graduation and I allowed her because she deserves it.  It makes her happy and it’s her special day. She promised to be in the house before night falls.

Congratulations Aubrey! And good luck to your next endeavor, high school!
