Make A Video Day

Hello Guys!

I had a very funny morning with my son. Today is my sister-in-law's birthday and since we have no gift for her special day, I decided to make a video with my little monster. After numerous and a seemingly endless takes I finally got the right shot. It took me almost the whole day to convert and edit the video because I was dovetailing with the video and taking care of Ozzie and the house. At last I'm done and have posted it on my sister's wall. I play it over and over and can't stop giggling. It just made my day and I am glad she likes it too. So I wanna share it here and hopefully put a smile on your face. Haha!

Apologies for the video quality. I can't upload it as a wav file. So I converted it to 3gp.

Smile!

Make A Post

Ola everyone!

Four months from my last post is quiet long. I thought I could make another entry after I give birth but man! It really ain't easy to become a mother. I get less and lesser time with other things. I don't even log in to facebook and surf the net as much as before. But I am very happy taking care of my baby despite my lack of time with other stuff. Good thing I am getting the hang of it but I still didn't have the motivation to make an entry until last night when a good friend text me to make a post about me and my little monster. I couldn't resist because I have also been holding on to this urge of posting another entry on my blog.

So, enough with the dilly-dallying. Atlast! The long wait is over. I have finally cuddled my little angel in my arms, kissed him and whisper to his ears I love him. Here's my baby boy's photo a few hours after I gave birth.

Thankfully I survived an emergency c-section and gave birth to a healthy 7.2 lbs baby. After months of thinking, arguing, teasing and seriously thinking of what name we will give our angel, my husband and I with the help of my brother , finally, named him Roslan Lupierre but we call him Ozzie, a pet name made by his granma.

When we took him home.

It's my 2nd month of being a full time mom and it is really tough. All those sleepless nights, the worries of baby getting sick, the laundry and the house chores? Phew! Exhausting. I can't believe I surpass the first ten days all by myself waking up at the middle of the night and sleep back for a few hours when the sunlight already floods the room. And then I have to take good care of my self too because my incision is still so fresh that the fear of it tearing apart makes me want to cry my heart out. It made me imagine the hardships my mom went through and all the moms in the world. And also my dad too, because I have seen my husband's effort of taking good care of me and our son for the first ten days after my delivery and before he heads back to work. I remember doing the laundry days after my delivery, it was a big NO, NO because it might rupture the stitches I got from my c-section. But still I did. AMAZING!!!! What mother's can do..

Hmm.. so anyway, after my husband left for work , he made me move back to my mother's house so someone can take care of my needs while I'm still recovering. And so I did. I celebrated my son's first month of being healthy and his second month too. The third will be this end of July and I am happy and thankful that he has grown into a good and healthy little boy.

 And I have officially announced my little pumpkin's arrival and beyond. Haha! Just like The Duke and Duchess Kate's announcement of the Prince's arrival. Congratulations to England's future king, Prince George.

I think I'll cut it right here. So before I go to sleep here's my question for those who have no kids yet:
It's really tough coming up with a name to your child. Well for me, yes. Anyway, when you will have your own one day, what would you name your angel?

Sort Of A Busy Day

Ola everyone!

March is already coming to an end. April will soon come and it's unexpectedly, undeniably fast approaching! My baby will be due more or less 5 weeks from now. I am excited and nervous. Anxious of a lot of things and happy with a few. I can't do anything except to pray and leave it to God.

Okay, back to business. Here in our country, March is a Fire Prevention Month (though in the news a lot of the fire accidents happened this month), aside from that, school here ends and summer vacation for students is starting which means, schools out! Hello summer grande! Okay, so school ended, most of my relatives finished high school and my brother finished college. Yey them! This morning three of my cousins finished high school and because I love them so much, I gave them a little gift. It was tough finding something to give them because I am saving money for my delivery and for emergency use in the future. Good thing I have with me some stuff I ain't using anymore and other free stuff from Avon. So instead of buying new things, I used those resources and I am glad they liked it especially my cousin Haruka. She'll be going to Japan this Sunday to stay there for good. I gave her my first ever boots I bought in the States and I just used it a couple of times. She fell in love immediately and didn't take it off. Plus, I attended her graduation rites and did something she will never forget. You see, she have a secret crush with this boy and wished she could get a photo with him before she goes to Japan for her to remember him by. The question was how is she going to do that? She's shy and the boy does not even know she exist. I told her yesterday that I'll make it happen. She refused because she's shy. But I this morning, I did ask the boy to take a photo with her, and she was like "OMG Ate!" ("Ate" means older sister) and laughed endlessly. I know she liked it and was happy with even a single picture. HAHAHA, teenagers.

Haruka and her crush, hahaha!

Cousins Haruka and Dexter, congratulations guys!!!

In the afternoon, I went swimming with my aunt for about an hour and then left when it started raining. On our way home, I started thinking of what to give my brother-in-law, Rapha and my mother-in-law, Mama Rosie, on their birthday. Rapha's will be tomorrow during his graduation and Mama Rosie will be on the 27th. Special occasion have always been important to me. Whenever someone in the family is having a birthday, graduation, whatever things to celebrate from, we always prepare or buy something. I got used to it. So now that I have a new family, I can't help to give something on their special day. I planned a surprise breakfast in bed for Mama, but I can't seem to plan it well since my husband is out of town and I am still shy approaching my sister-in-law, Chayo. She's a very pretty and smart lady with a very sweet smile. Just like my husband. Haha! So I planned to just bake a cake or buy flowers and send it to her in her office, but like I said, I ain't got money cause I am saving for delivery, every peso counts haha. So my husband and I are still thinking of something that is not costly but will make her remember that it's her special day and she's special. Plan is still on blue print. LOL.

Tomorrow will be Rapha's graduation. He finished Bachelor of Science in Nursing in a university well know here to have excellent training, Xavier University. How I wish I could pat him on the shoulders and wish him luck and blessings for he will be journeying in the real world. I doubt. It will be hard for me to go to the city and stay there for hours because my back hurts easily now due to my growing baby. Oh yeah! Now I have a younger brother! Haha! I can't remember if I did mention in my past posts that I wish I had a younger brother than a younger sister, well my younger sis already knows about it and just laugh it out saying I have no choice. Haha! But now, I have one already, instant not so little brother! LMAO.

Here are some of the photos my mama and I took during my cousins graduation:

She didn't take off the bots I gave her, I'll miss you boots!!!

Took photos of my two lil cousins as they play around the field

Mama's ice cream treat for the kids

Oh yeah, I gained lots and lots of weight =(

Yay, I didn't expect I'd write something this long tonight. My back is aching again so I better lie down for a while. Oh! Dinner first before I forget. Okay, so basically, my day was not really busy but I think it was because I had my mind running the whole day! Haha!

How was yours?

Smile!
