I Missed Mama Poko ;)

And I miss this blog :(
Not blogging here for long....

Guys - here's my update for today, please bear with me as I am going to post photos only.

That's my five year old daughter :)
The makulit, inglesera and loquacious little one.

We love her so so much!

Jd Has Sore Head

Last Monday, I noticed something wet on JD's head. She has sore head!!!! I also had it when I was young, because of head bugs, they were getting blood from my head haha. I hastily looked on her hair, searched on somthing that might be living there that caused her sore head. But I did not find anything. The case worsened, from one wound to four, my husband BBM'ed me on a Tuesday night and asked me

Daddy: Ma, bakit dumadami sugat ni JD sa ulo?

Me: hmmm.. chineck ko ulo, wala naman kuto. Maybe too strong shampoo kasi she's using for adult na which is Vaseline? Sige po, I'll buy her Johnson and Johnson (blue) na lang uli para wag magsugat. Tyaga na lang na mag amoy pawis kesa naman magsugat sya.

So before the grocery store closes, I went there and buy JD's J&J shampoo.

When I arrived home from office at 2AM, I checked JD's head while she was sleeping, and to my dismay, yeah, the one wound is now four. By only putting hands on her head, I can feel it gets worsen.

I googled how to cure it, and some mother say wash it with betadine, luckily, we already have one at home. The next day after I bathed her, I cleaned her head, her wounds, and decided to drop some FS or Fungisol liquid. She complained, "ma ang sakit" I told her "okay lang yan para gumaling sugat mo, tapat ko na lang sa fan para di masyado masakit". I advised my husband not to put FS again as it's only to be used once a day. So he just cleaned it with Betadine the night that I was at the office. I asked my husband what now happen to her head, he jokingly told me "ma lalong lumala".. I was worried, I told him to bring her to a derma and have her head checked. Mokong talaga, he then told me, joke lang, "magaling na, effective yung gamot."

When I again arrived from work, I checked her head and was happy to see the improvement. It was not as worst as the other day. FS was effective.

One reason perhaps is the shampoo we're using for her, she perspires a lot causing her hair smelly, thus, we decided to change J&J to Vaseline. Poor decision and we learned from it. JD's skin and scalp are not ready for adult stuff yet. Maghintay kasi, bata pa eh...

So lesson learned now, never use adult stuff to our 3 year old daughter yet.... Don't be like us mommies ha...

Worried,

JD in Donut Hair Bun

Will try this again tomorrow when we go to church. And her wearing a striped jumpsuit we bought her. Magmukha na syang lady nyan bukas. I'm excited hehe.. Will post another then. ;)

Reminiscing JD Before Three

Ang dami kong namiss ipost, ang daming memories with JD na nakaka amaze, ang daming dapat ilathala para naman mabasa ni JD paglaki nya. She's witty and smart. At 2, straight na sya magsalita, hindi bulol, sa letter S lang sya sira, she pronounced it as T. Pero besides that, waley, amazing (syempre ako ang mama eh dapat ma amaze).

Here's one of her videos....

When we were at National Bookstore nga, when she was 2, my high school classmate who also has a 2 year old daughter saw and heard JD (she is working at the bookstore), she told me "Ang galing na magsalita. Ang anak ko utal pa".

She also has learned the alphabet, recognizing letters, shapes and colors. But numbers - not yet hehe. THat is why when she had her entrance exam at University of Assumption, she was able to pass it kasi alam na nya mga tinanong. And the school's kinder custodian assessed that JD is ready for school, we need to teach her the phonics na.

Ang dami pa.... So sobrang dami nyang kakulitan at nakakamanghang development, hindi ko na maalala lahat. Pero kahit anupaman. nasa puso namin ang lahat ng nakaka amuse na ginagawa ng aming anak.

At, maalala ko... andito kasi ko sa bahay, kaharap si JD and she peed. I remember when she was 2 and half, we already taught her to pee every night, gisingin ko sya para umihi at para hindi sya umihi sa bed. Also, we started to teach her not to wear diaper na, kapag nasa byahe na lang. Ang laking tipid hehe....

Dapat pala, I always update this with JD's moments di ba. Sayang, makikita kasi nya to and mababasa paglaki nya. Para malaman nya how much we love her... and how much her cousins love her, how much inay and tatay love her.

She is such a nice baby. I always say she's mabait, hindi gaya ng ibang bata na may tantrums or nang aaway or naninigaw or iyakin. Sya hindi, and I owe it to my mother. Inay nurtured JD for 3 years, sya mag alaga sa kanya while I am at work, going home in Tiaong every weekends only.... And I thank inay and tatay for bringing up JD a very nice baby. Salamat po ng marami..

Will post pictures kapag may naretrieve ako :)

2015 Summer Class ni JD

Futuristic

It's been too long - I've never written anything here since September 2014, the last post I have is when JD's hair was cut short, and now on December 2014, her hair hair was again cut short for the third time. And this blog is really outdated, I must remind myself and push to write.

JD will nearly celebrate her 3rd birthday on March 21, 2015. And we have no plan of celebrating it in expensive way - just a simple one. In preparation too for her schooling, yes, you read it right, she's going to school already, we have now a nursery (prep) and we are really excited, we hope she pass the admission exam on March 2 :)

That is why I and Jay are thinking of her future, our future, in order to support her needs. I will be sharing you some of the ways we have to keep our future secure ;) in another post. So for now, let me remind you that don't just think of today, of what you have now, think of your family's future.

Yours,

 

Short Hair

When JD turned 2 years old, I thought of cutting her long hair (half waist length) because it was summer and she's sweating a lot. So when her daddy came in for a vacation, we cut her hair short. Here she is.

;)

How Were You When During Yolanda...

Haircut after my hair had gone over waist long. To turn away from boredom while my hair is having a blow dry, I decided to blog. From curly hair to straight. I missed it.

And how about Yolanda typhoon (Haiyan), did you miss it? Oh definitely not! I am not from Visayas but we were affected too. I had sleepless night,  vexing about the bad thing the strong wind might bring. The fact that our home is near the mango and coconut trees, you'd never know, something will fall that will cause us accident.  If only we can sue someone and blame for whatever bad thing might happen,  if only we can have Attorney Roy J. Bell to help us with the case. But it will be futile,  it's a nature act and no one is to blame.

During the Yolanda,  I was worried about my daughter's safety. Every time the strong wind strucked I always hugged JD protecting her for anything. She woke up every time I did it. I couldn't help it so I decided to transfer a place to sleep in. And then on, I had a bit sleep. Thankfully we were safe. Nothing bad happened.  Buy was sad because of the devastation it brought to Visayan region. 😭

Meanwhile here I am. My short hair ( bigger face though! )

New me tehee...

God bless us and take care mommies!

Whwn Daddy's Home: Vaccine Time!

April 14, 2013 was the first time Daddy J was withnus during JD's vaccine- the MMRV. Daddy J noticed how Jd is during vaccination. I let him assist jd, hawakan ng mahigpit para di malikot..

Here they are captured!

para namang isinusubo na ni daddy ung toy kay JD :( bad!

Till then,

Jhaydii as Princess Belle

It was a simple birthday party. Relatives of me and my hubby were there to witness the celebration of our daughter. Ay mahabang alalahanin to... way too old... we celebrated Jd's birthday on the day of her Baptism, March 23. It was done at the resort... and now I forgot the name. Medyo may amnesia na akl :( dotage!

Typical celebration.. Clown, foods catered by one of tita glo's classmates, red ribbon cakes (medyo fail lang kasi wala sila for princess belle) games, prizes and pictures! Because it was a momentous event, we decided to hire a photographer to better capture the moments. (Not pro though). I will share photos later. Magsesave pa ako from facebook eh.

Meantime, family picture muna... patapos na celebration nyan eh gift opening part..

We were happy for the turnout of the party. Medyo mainit lang sa venue,  good thing was the visitors were patiently there until the end. Tiring di ba. Meron naman mga fans around to lessen the init. You know Pampanga right? It's in Central Luzon and the Philippines is in the mid of the globe, so meaning super hot sa central part.

I want to make this post short and let the pictures tell you how we had it.

Want to know how much we spent? For a simple celebration we incurred almost php60k.

Venue 5k
Foods and catering plus reception design = 25k
Photographer 6k
Clowns 2.5k
Sound System 2k
Cakes 2.5k
give aways (tumbler and pins) 3.7k
tarpaulin 1k
costume 1.5k
Remaining etc

Masaya magcelebrate especially if the family is complete. A moment and event that always should be remembered and treasured.

Ano naman kaya masasabi no jhaydii when she gets old and sees my blog? Papadelete kaya nya kasi it's all about her ^_^

When JD Starts to Walk

I was very eager and wanted JD to learn how to walk. I was wishing that she walks early. Not to wait anymore! No more wishing and staring at JD. She already is starting to walk (on her own for few steps), with us guiding her - baka madapa sya. She can't walk on her own pa for long, so while she's taking her steps, we are beside her supporting and guiding her. And as eager as she is, while walking, mega smile and laugh pa ang peg ng baby namin, nakakatuwa syang tingnan, kahit na minsan e she falls.

She began her steps before she turned a year old. And had taking many steps exactly on April 15, 2013.

guided by Ate Kate and Ate Leslie.
Video taken by Daddy J - photo grabbed

Just last Sunday, she stays awake the whole mass. Ewan ko ba, nakatulog na sya on our way to the church, pero nagising when were there. We are on the dot, so madami pang upuan na pwede upuan. We were at the last row, yung nahahagip kami ng fan kasi JD is so pawisin. Okay na eh, I was happy sitting there kaso, JD is so active, she touched yung schoolmate ko beside us, so mega smile naman si lady. Then Inay gave us the pamaymay, she did not know na ok na kami with the air from the wall fan. Kinuha ko pa din sya to make sure baka nga pawisin pa din si JD. Kaso, JD wanted to play with it, and she cried kapag did ko binibigay. So I gave it to her. Akala ko she'll be able to tame, huhu... but not. Kasi binibitawan nya yung pamaypay, sa likod pa namin. So ako, I can't reach it para damputin, naabala yung nasa likod namin kakapulot, eh may baby din sya.... Ganun ng ganun. And she cried pa kapag di nakukuha ang gusto, pati pamaypay ng nasa likod namin gusto nya kunin. I can't endure her that way na ganun sya kaingay and likot. So tumayo nlng kami and we went outside standing. Sa labas naman, ayaw nya pakarga, gust nya maglakad. Okay pahbigyan. She pulled everything of her reach! Oh, JD's so grown up na talaga. Malikot and active. She wanted to make sawsaw to the holy water beside the church's door, I let it, and kapag ilalayo ko na sya, iiyak na.... Nililibang ko na lang sya.

And I decided to sit again, beside my classmate naman. Nakaupo na kami cuddling JD. But she didn't want to, she insisted on standing and walking. Pinapakealaman na nya yung umbrella ng classmate ko, and wanted to go away from our seat. So again, umalis kami, she walks and I guide her. Ang cute ni JD, while we were at the aisle as she walked, hawak ko isang kamay nya, she looked back on the seat of my classmate where we were seated and kumaway sya dun :) cute cute. Twice nya ginawa yun. Tuwang tuwa nakakita sa amin eh! All the time gising sya!

After the mass, we went to her ninang and spend our time until lunch - there, naglikot din sya :D

Hay JD, I know you are one year old na and I cannot stop you from growing. You are now in the stage of developing and curiosity so everything is tried. Just make it slow baby, para mabigyan kita ng madmi pang time.

I love you baby! Mwah mwah mwah :* :* :*

Meet Belle: Jhaydii's 1st Birthday

When Daddy's Home: JD Meets Her Daddy

If you will notice, I'd never posted anything here with daddy J's picture. Don't think that I gave birth without a father huh! Nope, I am not a single parent ;) fortunately \m/ Now, I am happy to tell you a story having daday J in our life - physically, I can now post here with him together with JD and me, yipee!

Daddy J has been away from me a month after we got married, and he'd never seen JD since birth. He's an ofw and endured a year of being apart from us. He works in Dubai as a foreman in a aluminum fabricating company. And as you know, ofw spends their vacation too. Grab the luck! Daddy J finally meets JD :D and took a chance to take of her for more than one month.

On March 8, 2013 - Friday afternoon, we went to the airport to fetch Daddy J - of course with JD (Jd's first time in airport hehe ). Being used to travelling, we've never heard her having tantrums, I love her being mabait and patient at travel.... (Wag sana sya layas paglaki nya :( )

We waited at the arrival area for too long, afraid of being caught of the traffic, we decided to leave Pampanga at 3pm (Daddy J's arrival is 7pm). But never mind how long, so long as daddy will be with us in few hours. Beforehand, let's have some picture taking - JD never seems to be tired, she loves camera now (although I don't have something to post yet - I mean picture... need to ask from my niece :) ) Enjoy naman kami while waiting kasi we were having fun taking pictures.

At the airport

As the time approaches, we decided to sit at the waiting area - we can see the flights arriving, yey! Finally we saw daddy J's flight. Hmmm tagal naman, I was tired looking up at the monitor at abangan sya na bumaba... And besides JD is so malikot. Until I heard Kate yelling - ayan na si tito ayan na si tito! naks, ang linaw ng mata. I saw him going down and my heat beats fast, I was excited again, not only because I finally be with him, but because JD will feel tha warmth of his father :)

Hay, how we missed him. When he's with us, he kissed me and JD. And at the van, he was the one who cuddled JD and fell asleep (sweet). Si JD, hindi sya natakot or nailag sa ama nya. she knows perhaps that "ay tatay ko to, namiss ko sya ng matagal kaya he deserves my attention."

And we went home together :D Now we're complete! Happy family! (photos to post later)

Till then,

Rewind 8: JD on her 6th Month Onwards

Because I think I will be having super dooper busy days I decided to have JD's update in one post from her 6th month to 10 months. Medyo refreshed pa mind ko to post for her 11th month. I will try to remember the whats during those months with the help of the pictures. Maganda tong blog na to, magandang may ganito, this is like a diary na pwedeng basahin ni jd and of her future siblings, makita nila how they grow up and loved by us. 

To start of.....

6th Month

 Baby can't wait for the cake, humay, dinakma na oh..... She loves touching objects on her 6th month actually nung 5th month pa ata or 4. SSaya no, she wants to taste her cake \m/  ....

 

Mega cry ang baby when her hand is pulled out from the cake. We love to prepare paulit ulit na food sa monthly celebration nya. Pancit, sopas, spaghetti and cake.Minsan may ice cream. 

See your lower gum, you began teething. Naglaway ko uber that time. We thought it was because you're teeting. Late 5th month of you, we brought you to your pedia kasi sobra paglalaway mo. And we found out may singaw ka malalaki. So Dra. Villanueva prescribed the daktarin. Thankfully naging okay ka na and nag heal na ang singaw. No more singaw after that yey! ;) . Cool 8-|

7th Month

Will try to remember again with the help of the pictures. Let me first dig my memory. On your 7th month, you are able to make gapang, yun nga lang minsan paatras. And it is the month where you have your teeth! What more interesting is, you have a very thick hair @:-) everyone who sees you praises your hair. To vouch, ito ang mga photos nya on her 7th month.  Hindi masyadong madami no? ;) :P :O tyagain na lang ang pag scroll mga fwends ;) 0*-)

amaze na amaze si baby

yan nga pala, lagi ka ngumanganga

 On your 7th month, we did not know pano mo natutunan ang pagnganga. Every time you are asked "Pano sabi ni dagul (aso)?" sagot mo :D nganga! It also becomes your greeting, sa halip na smile, you are first to open your mouth like :O .
