Big Bro and Li'l Bro

What happens when Mommy asks help from Big Bro Jeremy to take care of Li'l Bro Josef Blake while mommy tries to get a decent supper? Better watch this...

Josef Blake @ 2 Months Old

This is one of the perks I get everyday as a SAHM...the smile, the giggles, baby's breath, cuteness, baby fats, and all :) It simply takes all my worries away. Thank God :)

Crazy Jump

Here are two videos of Kuya Jeremy and Ate Frances during one of days we spent bonding at the Suzhou Central Park...

Kuya Jeremy is so hilarious here...



Ate Fran had to exert extra effort here just to touch the inflated floor because she's so light weight, hehehe

How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You

Here are some pictures to share. I'll just let the pictures do the talking this time as my heart is full :)

Happy Birthday, Baby Love

As I'm typing this, the clock is about to strike midnight. I'm hoping to get done by the time it's officially October 3, my Baby Love, Frances Clare's 6th birthday. I just hope she gets to read this blog post by the time she's interested in reading blogs already. I just want her to know that Mommy and Daddy couldn't thank God enough for giving us such a bubbly girl like her. We couldn't forget that joyful day she came to this world through me ( via caesarian section at that). Our first meeting was very unforgettable. From the time I was lying down on the operating table at 1:00pm till the time she was pulled from my tummy at 1:10pm, I was eyeing on what was going on the whole time, so excited to meet her. It was a big feat for me already having to brave the sight of scalpels, blood, seeing my tummy opened, and all. For me, this was a different kind of meeting after having pre-eclampsia during Jeremy's birth. That time, I was under general anaesthesia and was fully unaware of what happened then. And though, we were equally happy when I gave birth to Kuya Jeremy, it was only during Frances' birth when I was fully aware and was there to welcome her into this world. Baby love, please know that the doctor immediately noticed your cute dimples after a few minutes you came out from my tummy and exclaimed, "Pretty, pretty!!!" That's how you are and will always be. Happy Birthday Frances Clare! We love you!

THEN and NOW

Here are some THEN and NOW pics of our family. I tried to make some digital layouts to set a comparison between me and Frances...Hubert and Jeremy...it was lots of fun!!!
