Learning

I know I shouldn't be disappointed just because my baby isn't walking yet. It just bothers me that she became afraid and uninterested to walk. She used to love to try.

I am still helping her learn and I know we'll get there soon enough 😊

"yabang face"

There she goes begging to be carried. Lol 😄

Mommy, I Don't Want To Sleep

My daughter just turned one and suddenly doesn't nap anymore! When she's tired and I try to put her to sleep she throws a fit. It is both my husband and I who are responsible for spoiling this little girl, so for the second time around I let her cry it out (yes, it broke my heart to a million pieces). But there is just no other way.

It's never too late to teach her that she can't have everything.

Good luck to me 😄

Because I love...

...my husband, I am making him a chocolate cake ❤

I Think

I think we spoil her too much. This is what she does when we say NO.

Sometimes.

My Current Favorite

Last year, when I was pregnant, I had nothing much to do. I resigned from work as advised by my doctor. With my husband going to work on weekdays, I was left with little to do. So I read and read, and usually watched tons of shows. I remember the last time I drove my brother to his Aikido classes, I came upon a DVD copy of A Game of Thrones. It wasn't a big hit yet that time, as only two episodes were available. But I was hooked. After giving birth, my other brother gave me copies of the whole series, and I really found time to watch it. As my daughter was still in the eat-sleep routine, it was easy. I watched when I gave her milk, and when she slept (using my laptop and headphones); I'd just put her beside me and got lost in the show.
I have also finished watching the second season. Now I am about to finish the first book of A Song Of Ice and Fire.

The Little Girl Turns 1

How time flies so fast! Late last year I couldn't help thinking about when my baby would learn to sit on her own, stand on her own, eat, walk, etc. Now she's a year old! I know, there's nowhere to go but forward, and I will definitely miss Bean's being a baby 😞

She turned one last August 9. It wasn't exactly a happy day because she had high fever for a couple of days including her birthday. But I still made a mini celebration for her. I even decorated a bit, baked, and my husband cooked. She still enjoyed her special day 😊

We also threw a party last August 12 to include family and friends ❤

Of course, I baked ❤
