Before andrea has no inkling on sitting on my lap while we’re stucked for the traffic red light she will cry and do something that tells us that she doesn’t want to stop dada’s car , but now it seems that she adapted the “stop red sign” already. sometimes, it’s so funny that when i turn my gaze to the direction that she’s enjoying herself to i found a locale of course in his tradiotional thobe and a headress making faces with princess while the rest of his family were having a fun with it too. now, she found a way to make herself busy while “jero” is not running, gazing to other cars and drivers.
now she’ll have her full freedom with her new car seat. she can do whatever she wants while momsy is freed also from her heavy weight. it seems that she enjoyed
riding her new stroller (got a new one also she doesn’t want her old one, i think she’s not that comfortable with it no matter how grandma make her comfy with lots of pillows and blankets on it).
yesterday we gave her her test drive with it…whew! she liked it only that in carrefour one sales attendant gave her a bad day! she really want to carry andrea even i told her that she’ll cry she didn’t listen to me and what happened next baby munchkin cried and puked. and worst i just realized that her bumblebee and her bibs are not with us. i forgot it in babyshop after paying all the bills yep! we’re too occupied with the big boxes with us and forgot that i bought also some stuff and they’re in shopping bags.
and the best thing now is she has already her high chair. for sure, she’ll enjoy more her meals with momsy and dada.

we went to babyshop yesterday and princess went home with a piano, barbie doll and a little barbie ( barbie’s daughter), skirt, and summer blouses. yep! shopping galore with momsy and dada. i think her cabinet when she reaches her first birthday would be overflowing with her clothes not to mention that there’s a suitcase waiting for her in pinas from lola mameng (balikabayan box from the States) and lots of dresses also from auntie baby from u.k.
when i gave to princess her first barbie doll she’s do very happy you can read it from her eyes. it seems that she knows how to play with dolls now, she did not put the barbie in her mouth but then i have to take off barbie’s shoes maybe princess would put them inside her mouth and that would be a serious problem. wow! she gave barbie a kiss!!! she’s screaming at me coz she wants also to play with barbie’s daughter but, can’t give it to her coz it has lots of accessories in its hair and some tiny materials on its dress. she’d gone nuts also with her piano i dunno if we’re disturbing our neighbors with its noise can’t keep princess from banging it.
and of course we’ve been also to our usual routine–picture perfect! it’s like i’m becoming a real stage momsy everytime that there’s new i’m into our digital camera again and princess to her terrific stunts while momsy keeps on clicking the camera. for sure mama baby and papa boy as well as uncle nnoy would be very happy to see her pics again on the net. and i think the second part of her movie will be finished only that dada is always busy.

got a lot to do today but i prefer to slouch my back on the sofa and watch movie while my little pretty rabbit is still in her deep slumber but i have to prepare also her carrots so that she’ll not be on a hopping game again today. her hands are so swift, everytime she’s sleeping i make sure that her dodo puppy and all her food are prepared already to avoid some objects from flying. the other day, she doesn’t want to sit in her chair so momsy has to carry her while making her milk but on a second everything was on the floor. her two hands are always busy on grabbing things.
we usually wake up at 5 a.m. and it’s a daily routine to go around the house and open all the blinds and curtains and after is have our coffee or tea while daddy is preparing himself for office. before, little bunny the rabbit would not mind her dada leave the house for work but now it seems that we have to let her dada make his exit in another door and momsy has to make something to divert her attention. she love’s to go out always.
it seems that her walking skills with a walker has improved a lot, now she can run and eventually i think she will not be using her walker. bunny the rabbit knows now to use her pointing finger, so funny she kept on poking our eyes and nose.
whew! 4 more months and she’ll be one year old. i can’t imagine her running around our house and hiding in cabinets. even now if momsy calls her she runs away from me, such a naughty baby! i should be preparing her birthday party as earlier as i can be. i have to make a great plan for her big day. again i’ll be on to making invitation list and invitation cards – thanks to U-lead it will make things easier; theme of the party; make souveniers ( ahhh!!! i’m into goin’ all over doha — souks, malls and small stores for novelty items, ribbons, flowers…etc; contact a restaurant for adult and a fast food for kids, decide on the games for kids and as well as make a design for her gown (hahaha it seems that it’s her debut!) pink! that would be her motif and i think al nasser garden would be the great place, there’s a big multi-purpose hall and a big pool also for kids. chinese foods and filipino dishes from oriental restaurant and don’t forget Mcdonalds for the kids but i’ll just hide first princess friend denise in a room if the mascot arrives… worst thing will happen if she sees him. oh! how i love the swarovski crystal- a ballerina for the souvenier but it would cost us a lot! i think i’ll wait for her 18th b-day. we love you our PRINCESS!!!

Princess and mom want to go shopping again but shopping festival is not yet on so better to wait and save some bucks. nothing much to do today, waiting for my baby to wake up so i can call ninay teks and ask her what she’s doin now maybe, she can drop by together with chris in the house and we’ll cook and watch movies. maybe, going to city center and watch “troy” would be better. watching tfc is becoming boring, news are horrible lots of crimes and prices of goods are going higher and higher …nothing, nothing good and interesting. kakasawa na rin ang morning girls as well as ang mtb…hmmmmn!!!
i’ll just wait for princess to wake up and have my phone calls done and we’ll be into our game again: running all over our spacious villa and doin’ some hide and seek game. yesterday, while i was loading some laundry baby ganda started doin’ some peekaboos and after she’s running after me with her loud babbles and laughter. then daddy came from the office and joined us.

party!! party!!! party!!! now on the 2nd party in a row and tomorrow is another lunchdate what’s next another one? oh my! this is the problem we’ve been trying to lose weights but we kept on attending parties. how we’ll be able to accomplish that goal? i think this is the time to go to gym or buy those pills that would shrink my body to its shape before i got pregnant.
while partying, princess is enjoying also some foods but can’t escape some soup bowls from flying and her hands are busy trying to grab every stuff she saw especially FOOD! saw raf-raf there and she grabbed his toy and as well as his hair… princess closely watches denise while the toddler burst to a riotic blast with her cry and shrieks coz she doesn’t want to see the Mcdo’s mascot, worst she puked!!!

what a day! we’ve been to city center earlier this time for our groceries and we waited for two hours for the “home center” to open. we saw Ninang may and ninong yam together with ate marivic and uben. they also waited for the home center to open. ate marivic is an interior designer. ate marivic gave a short lecture on every stuff she saw inside the store.

it’s wednesday my hubby still has this hsg like virus on his body, i wish that he’ll be well tomorrow kasi ang hirap, he’s here in the house but we can’t cuddle the three of us baka mahawa si princess or ako. and princess keep on her new acting of being the master of our house. she’s really a grown up baby. her mental capacity is on the go but her physica ability makes her slow down and make her realize that she’s still a baby. she got irritated coz she wants to walk but she can’t. her mind is racing with lots of ideas on how she’ll play or what she wants to do but still she can’t do it. it’s hard!
we went to lulu hypermarket for our groceries, daddy nath can’t carry princess coz he has the virus so mom dimple has to do all the carrying of heavy-weight princess. she is quite behave but then she saw a girl eating cheese curls, i’m sure she wants some, so kept on smiling to the palestinian girl but the girl did not give her even one.
while we’re still sitting on the bench one indonesian 7th month boy came and sat also with us. his name is “iffif”, it seems that princess is more active and energetic with the baby boy. the mother of the baby boy is also friendly, so the two babies had their little chit-chat. iffif is like a small bunny he has already his two down teeth while princess just got the crown of her two front, down teeth. princess kept on showing off to iffif that she can stand with mom’s help for longer time while iffif just sit on his mom’s lap. the two bunnies held each other hands, maybe for them it’s saying goodbye to each other. and off they go with iffif.
after that we went to lebanese fruits and vegetables store and bought those big and sweet oranges and also bananas

our little indian toddler neighbor came to visit us with red and orange tomatoes in hand she started to open cupboards and when she finds some stuff which interest her she’ll play with it-that’s sara. she’s like a cherub,so fair her skin, very lean and has a beautiful face. she just turned two, two months ago. whenever hse’s here in the house she’ll act like princess real ate. if princess whines she’ll say in her tiny-tiny voice, “auntie, she needs her dodo puppy, ok i” give it to her” and there it goes she’ll start feeding princess with her bottle. she doesn’t sit and play in the playroom she’ll go around all the bedrooms and if she’ll find princess shoes she’ll say,”auntie, baby’s shoes…baby’s shoes, i put it…i put it” and she’ll manage to put shoes on my baby. so sweet how i wish that princess would be like her when she’ll have her siblings (shanaia lexia and sean linus).
i told sara that we’ll go to the playing room and watch also “book of pooh and his friends” and she willingly oblige. gave her black seedless grapes and she happilly munched on every piece of grapes. she told me, “auntie baby wants to eat, i give her?” she wants to feed princess with what she’s also eating, i told her that baby will get choke if you’ll feed her with grapes coz it’s only for big girls like sara. hmmmmnn, she said, “i’m a big girl, i’m a big girl!!!”
but my litle princess is on again with her old antics: pulling her playmates hair. sara doesn’t want to come near her again after my naugthy daughter pulled her hair. i told princess that if she’ll go on with her pulling-every-friends-hair antic then she’ll be having no playmate in our compound. like a good baby she stopped her bad habit. oh! how i wish she’s as big now as sara, can walk and talk endlessly.

my precious princess first squabble with ate angela. she is our filipina one year old and two months baby neighbor, she’s her naughty little “kiti-kiti” playmate. the first time they had their playdate it was not that riotic as now. nina will just kiss her hand or legs or face but she never screams at her, but the new phase of their level of being kiti-kiti found its way: now, whenever the two get hold with each other, nina will start shouting at princess like she wants her to be out of her sight and princess also would do some outrageous antics like whenever nina would get her head near her she’ll pull and tug all her hair. what happened to these two best buddies? so what we did is to give them enough space that nobody will hurt each other. ate nina enjoyed again her 10 inches space from princess she’s gone nuts with the “otso-otso” dance,while princess just tap her hands on her toes and nibbles her little fat momsy right toe.
and again there it goes the two little kiti-kitis’ start being good friends again, not to mention their squabble of their “dodo puppys’ (feeding bottle). nina most of the time grabs princess dodo puppy maybe, she thinks that it’s hers; can’t detect which hers coz their dodo puppy’s were almost the same, big and round white feeding bottles (like the size of our coffee cups).
sometimes ate would play like a very good toodler she’ll give princess her toys and my baby would accept them with all her heart coz she’s been given something to munch with. all the stuff would go direct to her beautiful mouth. eversince she started droolling she can’t help herself but eat all the stuffs that her hands would get to.
