We certainly have gained in pounds.

Happy two years Clove!

And on our 2nd year, we've become 3.

Maternity Shoot

After two months of cyber absence, I'm back! No, I am not pregnant again. But I will surely miss being one.

I've been meaning to share these maternity pictures but I was too preoccupied with my new role in life-- motherhood.

Looking back, my pregnancy made me realize a few things. Save for my 'morning' sickness which happens at night, the 9-month journey was rather blissful.

Here are the top 5 things I liked about being pregnant:

1. I sort of have THE excuse to binge and make every day an eat-all-you-can day. Haha. My OB frowned on this. She said I couldn't afford a six- or more-pounder baby.
2. Speaking of excuse, I had a valid excuse/reason to postpone my court hearings. Yay! 
3. People, even strangers, are EXTRA NICE to me. Really. I will surely treasure the random kindness I've experienced from people I barely knew. 
4. I'm always in the PRIORITY LANE-- CR, taxi lane, elevator, cinema ticket booth, and even in CD-R King! Haha. Yes, ka-level mi sa senior citizens and people with disability. 
5. My husband became sweeter and more considerate. Of course, I had to take advantage of that! Haha. So I bossed him around, letting him pick things up for me and demanding a good back massage.

The BEST thing about my pregnancy is giving birth to our little bundle of joy, our sweet angel and the one who will probably have the powers to tame my kamalditahan (joke! haha)-- JOAQUIM FELBERT.

Maternity Shoot BTS

These photos were taken by either my husband or our designer/make-up artist
friend, Roger when we had our maternity shoot last weekend.

Post-editing was done by yours truly using Photoshop CS3 and Photobucket.

Can't wait for the official takes of Joel and Psyche.

It's a Boy!

Yes, we're having a baby boy (according to the ultrasound)!

Secretly, I have been wishing to have a boy as my eldest child.

I am the eldest child. There were times when I wondered how

it feels like to have a kuya (big brother).

Words can't contain the happiness we felt upon learning that the

baby's condition is normal, that so far, there are no apparent

complications in my pregnancy. Recently, I've felt more distinct

movements from the baby most especially during afternoon going

towards the evening. I guess he is not a morning person, like

his father. Haha. Joke. (peace clove!)

I miss blogging...

Yes, I do. I haven't posted a single blog post for months!

I've been through a lot-- both the good and the bad.

Mostly good though.

The best among all the good is this.

My first 'successful' pregnancy. Successful, yes because

last year, I had a miscarriage. Hopefully, this time around

we'll be blessed to have a normal (& safe) pregnancy.

So far, so good. Thank God!

This pic was taken last May.

I am now on my 19th week.

The adjustment period was something I was not prepared for.

My first trimester was a roller-coaster ride. 

My morning sickness happened at night. Talk about misnomer.

The second trimester is a whole lot better.

No more throwing up. No more panuhot. Haha.

We're looking forward to next month.

We'll know the gender by then.

I will take this opportunity to thank my husband

for the night massages, for buying me my happy food,
and for being the supportive husband that he is.

Addicted!

I'm currently addicted to the photo grid app. Why haven't I discovered this before?

I Gotta Feeling!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime moment. After I saw this,

I vowed to myself not to expose myself to another

round of embarrassment. See what love can do? Lol.

ENJOY!!! 

Clovey & Phoebe

We thought of naming our car Phoebe (sounds like Feby, short for February) since we got her on Feb. 20, 2011 exactly two months after our wedding.
