Mateo’s first ever encounter with a mascot was during his achie’s Father’s Day celebration in school. Unlike other toddlers, he didn’t get scared with the sight of a giant fluffy walking thing infront of him. He was very eager to touch and was very curious. Just look at him …

I am sorting out the tons of photos on my laptop and I saw this photo. Hence the post. I am slowly starting to clear my to do list one by one and I’m so proud. This sorting out of photos is the longest to do. I have hundreds that’s why. I hope by tomorrow I’ll be done so I can move to my next task. But before that, I have to check out about the colon cleansing pills my cousin is recommending for my mom. Gotta do that first - my note to self.

Last Saturday, even if I was under a not so good ordeal, I, together with the kids still went ahead and attended the Jollibee Party for Aggie and daughter Marla, by Glo, arranged by the gay and proud, Peachy. Good decision it was. Entertainment was top notch thanks to Kathy, Jacqui and Peachy, LOL.

Seriously, its always fun being with these mommies, riot. An afternoon was well spent that day. Here’s a photo of us. Notice how slim looking I am? Arcona has been my best friend lately.

At 1 year 2 and a half months, the little guy finally had the courage to take his first steps unassisted. The next thing we knew, on the second day I think, he was already running and is all over the place, haha! Happy happy mommy here.

Here’s our little rascal.

Now I am off to the mall to get him walking shoes. I’m obviously an excited mommy can you tell? Dropping by the drugstore too to get some prenatal vitamins to give away in the Medical Mission my cousin in organizing in my mom’s hometown for my uncle’s candidacy. My own little way of helping the campaign. Later!

Last week, Jacqui’s little boy Migo was welcomed to the Christian World and I was part of it. I was Ninang to Mike’s (Jacqui’s husband) look alike.

Jon and I were very early at the church because all the while I thought the ceremony was at 3pm only to find out that it was at 4pm instead. Nevertheless, I had a grand time waiting because there was a wedding going on inside the church and most of the guests were wearing really lovely gowns and toting chanel metallic reissues! Yay, such a sight to see!

Anyway, here are two photos I grabbed from Jacqui’s Facebook. Pardon my bloated look, the elliptical isn’t making it happen for me yet. Give me a month or two for results.

We never get tired of going to HK Disneyland solely for Sophia and now for both - Sophia and Mateo. All the more reason to go back each time. Its very convenient as its just an hour and a half plane ride and the kids have the time of their life enjoying the park while I get to do the one thing that most girls love doing too - shopping! Jon on the other hand is content on pigging out and a little shopping on the side. This time we were checking out clarks shoes but they weren’t his type.

On to the park photos.

Here’s the usual, at the park entrance. Our 5th time! Willl post our yearly pics side by side soon.

With my whole family this time.

Random photos inside the park.

And then back at our hotel - Disney Hollywood Hotel.

One day after canvassing for ipods, I finally found the perfect swing seat for the little guy. Been looking for one for ages and its always unavailable or out of stock. Was even tempted to purchase the one I saw in Guam but a bit bulky so decided otherwise. Anyway, here look at the little guy enjoying it very much. His smile is priceless, don’t you just agree?

Day 3 was Disneyland Day. We checked in at Disney Hollywood Hotel this time. And as always, Sophia was ecstatic as soon as we got inside the hotel. Everything was very “Mickey”.

She loved the Mickey figure that she kept posing and posing.

And then we joined. Mateo kept giggling just looking at the Mickey Mouse figure.

They just can’t get enough!

Park Pics to follow. In the meantime, I need to look for available IT Jobs first for my cousin dear who just resigned from her job. Any leads? Let me know.
