My baby boy Carlos Chace is growing so fast. A few days before he turned 6 months, he pulled himself up in his crib! Now just a few days short of turning 7 months, he is starting to walk sideways around his crib! and he is able to stand with only one hand holding on to something, even if it's just a wall! I'm so amazed. :) His pediatrician said his motor skills are very advanced and by the time he turns 8 months, he will be able to walk on his own. How exciting! :)
If there's anyone Chace really really adores, its none other than his Kuya Kaden!
Watch my happy baby! He's always always smiling wherever he goes, whoever he is looking at. I took these videos of him a week after he turned 6 months old.

Here's another video of him playing.

Kaden's First Purchase

One of the things I want to teach Kaden is the value of money. I've been giving him a weekly allowance of 20php and he has been saving up and keeping his "monies" (as he calls it) in his Diego wallet. So for this trip I brought him to Toy Kingdom to pick his toy.

He had a difficult time choosing one toy within his budget.
But he was finally able to pick the Thomas train he wants for his growing collection, and paid for it himself. :)
So now, Kaden has to start saving again because he's back to square one, which is an empty wallet. Heheh!
He picked Emily.

I was so proud because he didn't even ask me to buy him more than one train even though I know he wanted them. Buti nalang his Uncle Rj bought him Lady the next day. So he's going home to Zamboanga with two new trains. Thanks Uncle Rj! :)

Jen's Bridal Shower!!

Cake by KinkCakes.
Balloons by Trust.
Finger foods prepared by Hazel.
Attendees.
The lady of the night, Jenny.
Was the cake any good? Let's ask Jenny.
We had games, but I wasn't able to properly document all of them because we were all too busy laughing that taking photos became the least of our priorities (for a while).
We had to blindfold Jen for the highlight of the night. LOL.
Stripper alert?!?
Are you liking it so far, Jen?
Since Jen had a tendency to run away from the pizza delivery boy, we decided to tie her into the chair.
If I post what happened next, they might mark my blog as "with adult content". Pero sige na nga, here's a preview. :p Oh, by the way if you're wondering, oo totoo yan.
Before we ended the night we gave some words of wisdom to the bride-to-be.
Words of wisdom from a married woman by Hazel Ancheta, Jen's wedding coordinator:
"Stay away from the in-laws. The reason why God made four Sundays in a month, so you can spend the first Sunday with your in-laws, the second Sunday with your side of the family, the third Sunday with your husband and kids, and the fourth Sunday for yourself.

Group Picture! :)
Jenny's Gifts!
Our Tropi barkada reunion! :) It was a rare moment for our barkada to be "almost" complete. I go a loooong way back with these girls. They have been my barkada since elementary, some of them since Kindergarten even.
Hope you had fun, Jen! Because we surely did! Love yah!

Jenny's Here!
