Our First Family Photos

Baby,

Your papa loves taking pictures. See some of our first family pictures as you were cooking inside mama's bun. 

Love,
Mama
July 2013
we received a call from the clinic where they told us that the blood test confirmed your arrival.
your papa bought a mini cake to celebrate. we were so happy =)

August 2013
your papa booked a staycation in Studio M during a long weekend - our last staycation before you arrive.
he carried heavy camera equipment so he can take photos of us. he was so excited!

September 2013
mama's office boss invited the entire team to celebrate Octoberfest at the Swiss Club and asked the team to bring their other half. mama and papa went and had so much fun! your papa had way too much fun that i'll have a story to tell you when you're a lot bigger. hehehe! look, mama was just drinking apple cider - no alcohol the whole time!

October 2013
we flew to the philippines and you rode a plane for the first time when we went to cebu to celebrate
lolo frank's 70th birthday.

November 2013
we were heading out to go to tita april's house in punggol when your papa thought of doing a little photo op to announce
your gender - our little boy!

December 2013
on our first christmas together, your papa printed out copies of our family picture and tagged it to our christmas presents.
January 2014
your tita lala flew all the way to singapore to surprise mama and 
you with a wonderful baby shower party - it was nautical inspired!

February 2014
mama and papa enrolled in childbirth classes - below was a picture during our floor exercises. 
mama got way too big - look at her!


March 2014
mama's blood pressure shot up and she was put on bed rest. this picture was one of the very few instances wherein your mama got to get out of bed and out of the house (but within the condo). 
after 30 mins, we packed up as mama's back started to hurt.


Cooking In Mama's Bun

Baby,

We are starting this blog so we can share with you the joy that your papa and I felt when you came into our life. I hope you get to read this when you grow up so you'll know how special you are. 
There will be days when you yourself will doubt that you're special, that you're loved. 
I hope this little blog reminds you that you will always have someone who loves you, who thinks the world of you. I love you anak. We can't wait to see you soon!

See your first pictures below =)

Love,
Mama
