As much as I prevent it from happening, I am slowly turning into "THAT Mom". Yung meron 971 photos ng baby sa phone gallery, yung dating travel, food, lifestyle Feed sa Instagram turned to baby photo album, and over sharenting (root: share + parent) on Facebook.
It's inevitable.
LO started solids few weeks back and I never thought that it could be this enjoyable to watch at the same time extremely nerve wracking!
We attended webinars for infant first aid and learned about gagging vs choking, but still the first time he gagged on his food, I felt blood drained from my face.
But how fun to watch him enjoy his meal eventhough most of the food we prepare end up on the floor.
I suggested to Ali to serve him salmon, partly coz I'm also craving for it. His response was "Bakit ang mahal ng mga gusto mong ipatapon sa kanya?!".
Looking at the list of the food that he has tried so far, I see that I was partially biased. First food/veggie - squash, first fruit - avocado.
Side kwento the Tarlac trip, avocados, tray of eggs.
It's OG Team Gastritis Little Espresso, Tobias Griffin's 3rd Birthday.
I guess, yes time flies!
Another staycation sponsored by Team Condo. We went to Tarlac City to attend Toby's birthday party.
Naki pictorial and kain lang kami coz it was a pool party and baby is not allowed to go swimming yet.
Before going back to Cavite, ang daming pabaon ng pamilya Puri plus all of Toby's hand-me-downs.
On few occasion, I return to my old self.
Last July 14, I had late lunch slash coffee date with friends after our onsite shift.
We are scheduled to report onsite once a month which equates to catching up day with whoever is also in the office. RTO = Chika slash pictorial slash foodtrip day.
Jenna left Vz last year, but went to Alabang to meet us and tagged her bunso along; her Copy + Paste, Hayley.
Before we bid our goodbyes, Erliza said "Sana next time may dala ka na rin maliit (pertaining to Nikolai)" and I immediately cut her off "Ay hindi, dalaga ako pag RTO".
Sorry na 'nak, Mom needs a bit of "Me time" for my sanity.
But being away from baby is tough; even more if he's only left with yaya.
We are fortunate enough to get a trustworthy and mabuting tao yaya. I feel her sincerity towards LO and trust her enough to leave him with alone with her sometimes. That's why we have takas na movie dates and cocol.
Yesterday was my cousin's wedding in Antipolo.
Babies and weddings don't really mix well, so we ultimately decided to leave him home kahit pumayag naman si Jay for us to bring baby.
I was already missing him before we even left the house! He was taking a nap and I couldn't play with him.
I guess part of my worry is that we are couple of hours away, and wala nearby relatives sa bahay coz we're all at the wedding.
But we survived, kahit medyo eat and run kami.
I felt guilty because I know how much time, effort, and money it takes to prepare for an event like this, tapos hindi tatapusin ng guests.
But circumstance was different. Anyway, we were home in time for afternoon play. And ODK, baby was soooo excited to see us!!!
I've never felt more loved!
I enjoyed playing with him, give him bath, read to him, and cuddled til he fell asleep.
Indeed a beautiful journey unfolding.
