Lance's Baptism

Lance's baptism was held last Saturday at Our Lady of the Abandoned and the reception followed at Kapitan Moy. It was already long overdue as he was almost 2 months old. I arrived in Manila just the day before. And as usual, everything was already taken care of by Toni, from all the paperwork for the baptism to the reception, down to the cake and balloons. Thanks honey!

The baptism started promptly at 11am. He was asleep when it started. He just woke up when the priest poured water on his forehead. The venue of the reception was just right next to the church. Tatawid ka lang ng kalsada which was convenient for us and our guests. Thankfully, some guests that didnt make it to the ceremony were able to arrive at the reception as most of our guests werent very familiar with the area. Only about half of the tables were occupied when we started but soon enough, the whole place was brimming with guests. Toni and I were both busy making rounds at naka isang plato lang kami ng pagkain! It was nice to see old friends again because we only see each other during occasions like these. There were also a lot of kids there. Some of them were running and playing around while the others mga karga pa rin ng mga mommy. It just feels so great to think that soon, Lance would also be running around and playing with other kids as well.

La Lang

It’s been a month and a half since I gave birth. Ang bilis ng panahon. Malapit na akong bumalik sa work and I’m sure I’m gonna miss my son. Kung pwede lang huwag na mag work para I can stay home na lang all day. Ang sarap palang maging mommy. Sulit lahat ng pain and pagod from labor to giving birth to puyat and all. Lalo na when you see your child staring at you when you talk to him. Haaayyy….

I hope I’m doing a good job as lance’s mom. Ang hirap na ang sarap maging first time mommy. Dati, praning ako pag gumalaw si Lance sa gabi, kala ko something’s wrong o kaya yung paghinga niya parang di normal, takot na ko agad. Buti na lang there are friends that I can text to and ask pag mga ganong situations. Until now praning pa din ako, pag parang may kakaibang nararamdaman si Lance or pag umiiyak siya na di ko alam yung reason why. Ngayon nga he has colds at kung pwede ko lang kunin lahat ng sipon niya at ilipat sa kin gagawin ko para ok lagi sleep niya and syempre para di na magkasakit.

I know I still have a lot to learn as a mom, una na ang pagpapaligo (yung yaya niya yung nagpapaligo sa kanya, feeling ko kasi malulunod or mababalian ko si lance pag ako nagpaligo eh hehe!), and I’m sure madami pang puyat, pagod at kaka-praningan ang mararanasan ko but I’m willing to take all those challenges, sobrang sulit naman yung happiness na kapalit non eh. Yun lang!

Below are some of Lance’s pics. Laki na niya agad. Lakas uminom ng milk. :)
