I Felt So Loved

I have never asked God to make a man give me white flowers to tell me that he is the one for me.

My husband and I celebrated Valentine's Day a little off the mark.

We had to postpone our celebrations because of our engagements with other people.

I spent last night with my husband. 

I have forgotten what he said he was planning to do

because my mind was so occupied with work and Via 

and so many other things.

And so last night, while I was in the apartment, everything came in as a surprise.

I was taking a shower and heard him change the songs on his computer.

Everything became very mushy!

The songs that I didn't really listen to before.

When I got out, I saw that it was a bit dark and a candle was lighting up the whole house.

He gestured for me to sit down on the chair and rubbed my legs dry with the towel.

He then said that he has something for me and handed me the flowers!

White ones!  

And I knew they were beautiful even if it was a bit dark.

He ushered me to stand up and he made me dance with him.

I couldn't help it but cry.  I was so overwhelmed.

He was a bit puzzled why I cried (and was even bothered)

He doesn't get it that I felt so loved by him that it moved me to tears.

We have been through a lot and we are still going to go through tough times some more.

But last night, I thought that everything is at it should be.

He is more than enough for me.

On Our Way To Breakfast!

Kuya Gab and Via at the back of the van with Yaya Rina.

We all just woke up and headed straight to Katipunan to

have some breakfast with the rest of the family.

I thought both kids were happy to get out of the house.

Chewing On Everything!

Here's the thing: Via puts everything in her mouth.

There's no exception.  Edible or inedible... it goes straight inside her mouth.

When she's with mommy, the room is a mess.

I try to give her all her toys at the same time

which I think is a bad idea because she could not

concentrate on one (educational) toy as she should.

When the nanny is around, everything is spic and span.

I try to make her play with her toys instead of chewing them.

She was trying to get the iTouch out of the stand 

And I helped her out to get it.

I thought it was time for her to figure out the gadget by herself.

Unfortunately, she thought it was food.

High Chair Alert

This High Chair was designed for safety and security.

Unfortunately, it wasn't designed for my daughter.

She could wriggle out of this high chair in a matter of seconds if she wanted to.

Hence, the nanny is on Red Alert whenever she prepares her food.

She couldn't take her eyes of my Via because she could just get 

out and fall from this chair.

Watching Via play with something (I don't remember what)

And I keep distracting her with the camera and kissing and smelling her once in a while.

There was one point when she pushed me away ^_^

Watching Her Sleep

I even took a video of this.

She looked so peaceful.  I didn't want to bother her.

So I did my best to be so quiet and watch her take her nap.

Every now and then, she makes a sound with her mouth as she sucks on her pacifier.

Couch Potato

This is Via having her afternoon bottle of milk.

When she's not scheduled for a nap, she could drink milk in front of the TV.

Otherwise, the TV is turned off or at least, turned down.
