Giggly, Antsy BoyFrom a very happy baby, you are now always all kinds of antsy. I have started bathing you twice a day just to keep you comfy... something I wasn't doing before because you seemed to catch colds easily.
Your first visit to a pedia for a consultation that isn't scheduled is to have rashes on your chest checked. The pedia said it's skin asthma and prescribed ointments. Like what I said, I decided to just bathe you twice a day instead.
You laugh like a loon. Just today/yesterday, you woke up Tito Jun with your shrieky laughter. You also like shrieking/screaming... and I hope that's because Kuya is loud and not because Mommy's always angry.
You fell in love with your Tita Maricel... and would even appeal to be held by her when you saw her on webcam! You'd sleep so easily every time she holds you.
You love the sling and would also sleep within minutes of being placed there. And I was able to put there in the kangaroo carry!
It's only recently that you've started to almost really sit without support (so I haven't really used the bath chair on you), and not yet doing it on your own. You like turning over and you can also sort of crawl now. Maybe I should put you on paces and make you go after toys. But... which toy? :)
Like your Kuya, we're not following the pedia's instructions. You eat every other day now... because I can't stand the piteosuly hungry look and exclamations you give when we put you in the rocker to watch us eat our meal. So far, you have had squash and rice cereal. All organic, baby :) If you're going to be fat, you're going to be fat eating veggies!

Miscellaneous FB status about you:
has quite forgotten how truly amazing it is to watch a person unfold from a baby, and how truly wonderful it is to wake up to smiles filled with nothing but love... to be deemed perfect and beautiful.... makes me reconsider having a 3rd child, haha

una kitang pinagnasaan

can't believe Yamee will be 4 months old already tomorrow... shucks, soon, he's getting married na :( *waaahhh*
*~*
Me: Yakee, please tell Yamee (who is gnawing on her arm) that Mommy is not food.
Yakee: No, Mommy, it's ok. He's just practicing.
*~*
Yakee has been telling Pappie that he's angry with me because I'm always taking care of Yamee. Don't know what to do with the information since I feel it's my duty to give as much caring to Yamee as I did with Yakee... plus, Yamee keeps on crying from being woken up or gigil by Kuya. *disaster*
*~*
Yamee is such a happy baby, despite barfing thrice, pooping once and no sleep since 9 PM. *exhaustion*
*~*
last attempt at a Milkaholic pic coz all their shirts are getting small for them na
*~*
Everytime nobody isn't looking, Yamee rolls over. Sniff, my bunso is becoming less and less of a baby everyday... smelling less like a baby too (with all that drool on his face, fingers, neck, all the pillows and beddings...) :D
*~*
was going thru the boys' clothes.
Ackkk... Yamee has these cute Zara polos na for 3-6 months pala from Sancha Arevalo. I thought kasi for 6-9 months so I wasn't putting them out for use. Eh Yamee's turning 5 months na... *disaster*
*~*
knows Yamee didn't mean anything by it, but to actually hear "Momma" from his lips was like a ton of white chocolate *sweet* (Apr. 07)
*~*
finds herself calling Yamee 'Yamnyoy' a lot lately... when she didn't really like Yakee's take on his brother's nickname before... mainly because Yamee is turning 5 months old in 3 days... and it's soooo bittersweet how time flies when you're raising sons.
*~*
5 months old today... already likes splashing water on his own... always playing with saliva and blowing raspberries (spitting too)... always sad when we're eating and not giving him any... his Kuya's biggest fan!
*~*
Oh gosh... sana lang 15 yrs from now, there won't be a pic like this... where Yakee's grinning as he puffs on a ciggy... and Yamee is trying to light up his *arrghhh*
*~*
Yesterday, my son started repeatedly hitting my arms because I refused to give him a cookie. Complete with shrieks & screams! And I am referring to Yamee. *disaster* (april 13, 2011)
*~*
was looking forward to adoration only a baby can give to its Mom... alas, though, Yakee is the apple of Yamee's eyes! Hirit naman ni Pappie, "so dapat talaga magka-girl tayo para may fan naman ako?"
*~*
has to believe that she has what it takes to parent her cantankerous 5-mo old and spirited 3-yr old. *sigh*
*~*
Yamee is such an Arevalo here. Proud of Yakee for being so supportive and happy for his younger bro. Sorry Bel Amante- Aurelio, kulit ni Jojo Arevalo eh.
Wet spots on the bed? Yamee. Scattered toys on the floor? Yakee. But the time when i'd have to really guess who did what and both boys denying everything is coming oh so soon.
*~*
thinks its actually a little pitiful that Yamee keeps trying to eat the corn print on the rocker whenever he's there. Talk about PG :D
