Monthly Birthday

On every month of their birthdate prior to their 12 month birthday, we usually give a little celebration. A thanksgiving since the first twelve months is the most critical stage of their growth.

Meet the Grandparents

The kids call them "papa" and "mama". Papa Manny and Mama Gloria for Kathy's side. Papa Alvin and Mama Dulce on my side. Since we are staying along with Kathy's parents, the kids are more closer on Kathy's parents. We opted to stay because of my previous job which requires me to work on night shift. Papa Manny is the videoke partner of Iggy. Iggy can sing visayan song better than me. Funny. Mama Glo is as ever gentle and kind with the kids.

On weekends we bring the kids to Mama Du and Papa Alvin so they bond with them and their cousins as well. Only Kei is having hard time getting along and adjusting.

Well sad to say, Papa Manny will gonna take my place for the mean time as a father to the kids.

Haircut Trouble

We always had a hard time when it comes to the haircut of Iggy. Because he can't take the hair falling onto his face and the scissor cutting around. The razor is a no-no because it tickles him. At one time we had to hold him tight like it was a torture for him. We would really feel sorry after it because he would cry and get mad to us. It would end up not finishing the haircut especially in the ear section. Then we would just cut it at home when he is asleep. On this photos, he stayed and behave just because of the DVD player in front of him.

Thanks to his nana Ites, Iggy got an haircut twice without crying or any drama. Nana would just scare him about the security guard. The solution was actually us, Kathy and me, not being around so he would not make any drama. Because we tried going to a barbershop with a TV and watching Disney Playhouse. The haircut still was'nt done. He looks good when his hair is cut short.
