this video really sends me extreme emotions of happiness, guilt and hope (all at once). before, i never really knew the essence of my existence and the reason why i must go on. i kept complaining and asking for something more.this video is a story of a father and son. who, despite of all the constraints and obstacles they have in order to live a life that others might say as normal, obviously

another miracle has come our way.ice is turning one this april 9, 2009. it falls on a maundy thursday. so we are planning on a more discreet celebration with respect to the lenten season. but still it is such a great blessing that ice has finally reached 1 year old. anyways, in the Bible, the Last Supper was on a thursday and it was supposed to be the time for the "Passover" where the jews

In the morning of March 23, 2009, few days before her first birthday, i noticed that ice's upper gums are turning into white. i couldn't say if it was teeth that time coz it could also be just traces of milk she drank. but when i went home in the evening, her teeth appeared. there were three of them. but the other one is still not very clear.i know that this development is quite late than the

i really admire the tv ad featuring Kris Aquino and her son with James Yap, baby James. this is about getting a motherly smile from witnessing the milestones of your baby. i really can relate to this, especially as i watch my second daughter, ice, learn lots of new things at ten months.now, she can respond if we tell her to clap hands, say "bye-bye" and when she hears music she moves her hands

ice, at eight months, is now learning to walk by the help of the walker. when we put her down she'd look very excited and she'd start to "walk" her way around our living room. but at times when we just lay her down the mat, she'd roll all over it, and make way crawling around even beyond the borders of the mat. it's really heart-warming to see your child learn new things and take her milestones.

i just had a minor accident this morning on my way to work. poor me. the road from our house to the next street corner (approx 100m) is a rough road. and i don't know when will it ever improve. it really looks like a disaster especially on rainy days. when i was about to enter the highway the motorcycle i rode with slipped through the edge of the asphalt road. urgh! so the motorcycle fell down

http://www.wholesomebabyfood.comice has just turned 5 months last sept 9. so we started giving her solid food in addition to milk. we milled the rice so it becomes like a rice powder or something. we cook it into a very soft porridge and mix some mashed vegies, egg, or flaked fish. we feed her solid food twice a day at the moment, in the morning and during lunch. we also occasionally give her

rain as i have said in my previous blog is a picky-eater. but there are times when she eats well especially if i serve her with foods that she likes. she loves spaghetti. when we dine in fast foods, that's what she always asks me to order for her. she also loves fried chicken, specifically buttered chicken. she also loves pizza. when we order hawaiian pizza, she eats it with a certain

tntime indeed travels fast. rain is now three years old. she already knows how to do things in her own way. actually, she always wants things her way. i am proud of her for that. but she's just a child, she can't do all things right. i am still figuring out the right way(s) to make her understand things. it surely does require various techniques to get her to follow. in my case, i treat

I was already two months delayed with my menstruation, so my husband and I bought a pregnancy test kit, w bought two. I did it with him and the results showed positive, we were a bit thrilled but not shocked.Being in the period of pregnancy is not easy. I experienced 4-month long nausea, morning sickness, mood swings, vomiting, and all that... But then, after the first trimester, these
