My Baby is Now Three

And just like that our baby is now 3...


I can still remember the pregnancy, the labour and his early days... but I still can't get over the fact that my little Poj is now 3 years old last May 31.

We started the day with surprising him in bed with his birthday cake whilst we sing Happy Birthday to him. We could tell that he was surprised with all the candles and the singing until he remembered that it was his birthday.

Ayan, nakita nyo na si Poj ng bagong gising, lol! Request nya ang chocolate cake na ito & he was really happy to see that I made it for him. And even when we gave him his gifts he asked if he could start eating it, haha!

Syempre we told him to open his pressies first. We bought him some learning books to encourage him to improve his literacy and numeracy skills.  We also got him more paints, pots and paint brushes.

He is also into pretend play so we got him a play cash register too. He is with us whenever we buy our grocery and he is always intrigued with all the zapping of the bar codes and with the till opening. Kaya ganun na lang ang galak nya when his toy register scans the grocery items that were included in the box, may play paper money and coins din as well as a debit card & card reader. The calculator on the til actually works as well as the mic. He loves to shout " I need help with the packing please!" lol

When we asked him what he wanted to do, he told us that he wanted to go swimming. We were initially planning to go away but because of work commitments we decided to just go to a small resort locally.

We went to Romsey rapids in the morning. It's a shame that the flume is closed in the morning on weekdays coz he loves that. But he still had lots of fun swimming. We are so proud of him coz he is so confident in the water. He is happy to swim by himself (still wearing arm bands of course). He even sets a goal for himself and tries to swim farther each time. 

Sorry, no photography allowed in the resort. 

Romsey rapids photos are from Google search iPhone app.

We also went to the park where Poj enjoyed the afternoon playing football and playing in the playground.

And since we didn't throw a birthday party for him, we decided to bring a cake to nursery instead. They had the cake after their afternoon meal where everyone sang a loud happy birthday to Poj. 

We also knew that we're not allowed to take any photos at nursery, kaya we made sure we took photos before leaving.  

Graduate na ata ang Poj ko kay Thomas, he picked this Disney Cars cake himself =)

We are noticing a lot of changes with Poj. He is becoming more independent each day and is becoming such a sweet and polite boy. He thank us for his birthday and said that he was happy, this actually made my eyes water and when I gave him a tight cuddle he said he loves me. 

It's his birthday pero feeling ko kami ni Papa E ang binigyan ni God ng gift....

Happy 3rd Birthday Jace Ethan! We love you ♡♡♡
