Baptism

I attended my cousin’s daughter’s baptism last week. Alexie Sophia, the baby’s name, is their first born. She just turned two-months old but quite big for her age. I was one of the godmothers but I wasn’t able to go to the actual event at the church because I thought it hasn’t started yet. It was embarrassing since when I was about to go inside the church, they were all coming out from the chapel. The christening was performed in the chapel due to some event in the main church.

I was very apologetic and just went to the reception afterwards. I first gave my cousin the gift without a gift card sleeves (due to time constraint) but also gave her wife some cash before I left. I was able to see some of my relatives again. I left after more than an hour because I have the babies waiting for me.

Sick

It’s hard when a family member is sick, much more if it’s the kids. My eldest and youngest are both sick. Ate I have asthma attack while Al, I don’t know what her sickness is. I’ve brought them both at the pedia (different day). However, I’m much worried about Al, she got a fever but we don’t know what could be the cause. Her doctor said she has a sore throat which could be causing it. She got a 40.3 degree Celsius fever last night so I asked her babysitter to sleep with me in the room.

Her fever got lower this morning but I’m still worried. Now the other twin have colds. If only I could take all of their sickness away. I hope it’s me who’s sick than them.

Almost One

It’s February and it’s the LOVE month! Well, it’s also the twins’ birthday! They are turning one this month. I still can’t believe they are almost one. Hubby can’t believe they are twins, lols. The house is always in chaos. You might think there are about 20 people here at home but we’re only 8 here! It’s the twins and their elder sister.

Anyway, it’s going to be another milestone – them turning one. They will be baptized and have their birthday celebration in one though it will only be us, our parents, my siblings, hubby’s siblings, the godparents and my closest friends. Can’t wait!

Winter

“Is it almost winter?”, that’s the question my eldest always asks me whenever we pass this place going to SM Mall of Asia. I don’t know why but she always asks that. I will tell here there’s no winter here in the country but when we pass that place again, she’ll ask me that question again.

She knows winter because of a movie she had watched. She said she likes winter and wished we can do snowboarding. I told her that someday if we can afford, we’ll go somewhere where we can do that. For now, I told her to just imagine we have a snowboard rack and that we are going snowboarding whenever we pass the place to MOA.

11 Months!

The twins will turn 11 months on the 26th! One month from now and they will be one year old! Me and hubby can’t wait for them to walk on their own so that it won’t be that hard to travel. So what can they do now?

• They are trying to stand up on their own
• Talks a lot (mumbles though)
• They cry when I scold them for something they shouldn’t do
• They cry when they are afraid
• They can eat solids
• They know “where is the light”, “where is the clock”
• They can say “mama” though I’m not sure if it’s me they are referring too
