Maddy is 2 years and 9 mos old. A few months ago, she’s started suddenly hugging you or holding your face and saying I love you Mommy. Or she’ll say I miss ya mommy. She’s super clingy and Maddy, sometimes I get caught up in how annoying it is that I forget how fleeting this Wall all be. I forget that in just maybe 10 years from now, I’ll only get a reluctant I love you out of her once prodded. I’ll have a moody teenager, who won’t want to hug me or cry for me to hold her hand or carry her.
It’s amazing how fast she learns things (I was trashing her 1-10 in hokkien!) and how fast her vocabulary is going (“I have an idea” “it’s a sunny day!”) She’s also almost fully potty trained already, except when she she’s sleeping. She can hold her pee longer especially when we’re out and we’re nowhere that near to a toilet. In school she also rarely wears a diaper anymore and tells the teacher if she wants to pee.
(look Ma, no panty!)
Shoti on the other hand is such a good natured baby and wants to sit up or stand already. He finally learned to roll over on his own just a few days after he turned 5 mos! No thanks to me after daily practice.
I was able to fly to Manila last weekend - JUST THE TWO OF US!Considering that it was the hell weekend where a NAIA 1 runway closed for 36 hours because a Xiamen airline plane that got stuck when it hard landed. Our 9am flight to Manila was moved to 1pm, which I only found out because I kept checking the site’s flight status. When I got to the airport at 12, he flight was delayed further to 2. When we got on the plane, the captain announced our flight would be at 4.40pm!!!
I survived with just my Ergo carrier! No stroller woohoo! Stayed with my parents for 3 nights, the longest I remember staying in Manila since I got married. It was a good bonding time, sayang lng the 22nd wasn’t declared a holiday like we all thought.
Also, shout out to hubby for finishing strong on the bike relay of the recent Cebu 70.3! Now it's my turn!!!
And also, Erni resigned na. Another team member gone!
