snoring babylove

We went to Zaiid's doctor to complain about his snoring. He snores every now and then but just recently, we noticed that he's having breathing difficulties - as if he's running out of air. He was disturbed and was never comfortable in one position.

This worries us a lot because he may not getting enough rest. I thought that this might be because of his overweight issue, and not something scarier like sleep apnea (God forbid!).

His doctor advised us to get him into a higher sleeping position (2-3 pillows up) and of course lose some weight. Right now he's got 6kilos excess.

We hope he'd shed off those extra weight sooner. It's not going to be an easy job but we will try harder than the last few months.

little bookworm

Our little boy loves books - I think he got that from me. He's got a total of 27 favorite books on his shelf. We needed to get him new books after he has become too familiar with his old books that he tore them all out of boredom. And, we need new books to bring along on our plane ride back to Cebu next month.

We all had a great time at Borders, especially my son who was so happy with the trip to the bookstore. I got him "I was So Mad" his all-time favorite Little Critter, "What Do You Love", and Baby Einstein's "See and Spy Shapes".

He doesn't want to leave the place anymore even if I showed him that we already bought his new books.

how big are you, bellylove? (23 weeks)

To get on with the cool real-world guide comparison (showing vegetable or fruit and a coin!) on how far along i am with my bellylove, here's how big it is this week:

23weeks
Bellylove weighs about as much as a large mango -- just over a pound. (Length: more than 11 inches.)

What's in tune with this whole comparison is that I just ate, finally, the manggang hilaw I have been craving for. Asluuuum kaayo yum! It was given by yaya's boyfriend - funny, it seemed I enjoyed more than his girlfriend hahah!

View the past weeks' comparison development.

While the littlest of the puddings is at 23 weeks, the BabyKuya is now 23months old.

lobby smiles

We missed the Friday fun at Mercato because we couldn't find any taxi. And there's no way we would extend another 30minutes in the summer heat. We ended going back to our flat, cooled down a little at the lobby still with full of smiles before going back to our room.

the art of crying

He cried a bit when his Papa had to leave for work. And he realized he's getting attention so he increases the crying - faking it just so he can observe our reaction. I carried him in an instant (which is really what he wants since he's getting less of this now with my growing belly, poor little thing.) while his Te Nana got the camera to record his acting.

It was cute and silly at the same time. He masters the art of a fake cry - I think it's a good thing, at least it's a fake one. Ten minutes passed, he then asked for a SpongeBob theme song lullaby and milk...time for your afternoon nap little bugoy!

My favorite Pregnant Shirt

This is my all-time favorite hubby pambalay t-shirt.

1. because it's got whales in it and i love wales

2. because i like seeing my husband wearing it, it makes him look more... 'whale-y' kind of man (i don't have to explain that right? it's just one of those things that you alone can understand what you mean)

and finally 3. because i feel so comfortable in it every time i got a tummy dweller.

We find this funny. It's like this shirt represents us, The Puddings - well, the whale family version. On top is Papa Goy (my big babywhale), next in line is Me, then followed by Kuya Zaiid (see how he's 'rounder' than I am haha!), and finally our the littlest of the puddings! And just so you'll know this is an ukay-ukay shirt hihi!
