Father's Day 2008

Today is a joint celebration for dad and my hubby. At day, Jason and I took turns on taking care of our little princess... for mom and dad went to Tagaytay to have their own celebration of Father's Day (ang daya di kami kasama hehehe!). Dinner was spent at home with 2 buckets of KFC (yummy!) since we can't go out with our little one just yet.

To all Dad's out there ... Happy Father's Day!

Julianna Alyssa @ 1 Month Old

Your baby may gurgle, coo, grunt, and hum to express his feelings. A few babies also begin squealing and laughing. Be sure to coo and gurgle back, and talk to your baby face to face. He'll enjoy holding your gaze now.

If you have things to do, your baby will still enjoy hearing your voice from across the room. And don't feel silly about talking baby talk — babies are particularly attuned to this high-pitched, drawn-out way of communicating that can actually teach your baby about the structure and function of language.

We celebrated Julianna's 1st month birthday twice. One was last Sunday with her Lola Perly and Tito Jade, and yesterday with the Recta Family. She's getting bigger already, according to her pedia. May weight target kasi kami for her na dapat in two weeks mag-gain siya ng 600 grams. Pero nalampasan pa niya yun, she gained 900 grams weeee ... galing talaga ng baby ko. She still looks like her dad, as everybody else says ... pero she's getting prettier. Siyempre anak ko yan, siya pinakamagandang nilalang sa mundo, walang kokontra ha, bubuhusan ko ng acido ... joke lang.

We just ordered food nalang from Goldilocks. Last Sunday we had Sotanghon Guisado, Kare-kare, Double Dutch Rolls, Lumpiang Shanghai ... but yesterday, we only cooked spaghetti and mom bought a cake from Red Ribbon ... sa kasawiang palad, wala din photos kahapon dahil tulog ang birthday celebrant. Ayaw makisama sa camera hehehe.

Here's our first ever family picture... susme, ang putla ko diyan halatang walang tulog. Kulot-kulot pa buhok ko ano ba yan hahaha! Kailangan ko na magpagupit waaaaahhhhh!

Baptismal Preparation Updates
Jason and I decided to move Julianna's Christening from Sept. 13 to July 26, 2008. Para mapasyal na namin si Julianna na hindi na kami magwoworry na mauusog siya or what. Alam mo na mga kasabihan ng mga matatanda. Good thing some of our prospect suppliers are still available on the said date. Jason already booked the church and reception venue. I'll gonna get Ging Lorenzo as our photographer for the event. I'll coordinate with her pag plantsado na yung oras na napa-reserve namin on both locations. Although we'll gonna get the baptismal package from the reception venue, I'm thinking of making some DIY stuffs for Julianna. Mai voluntered to help me on making her invites and guestbook. I so love her, I know she's good when it comes to digiscrapping kaya alam ko maganda ang kalalabasan. Ngayon palang, salamat Mai sa iyong tulong.
