pajama party.

you had your first pajama party over the weekend as one of your activity at school. here you are waiting for your dinner to be served. watching you makes my mama heart swell with so much pride and joy, you've become independent and mature in less than a year of pre school. 

way to go little one.

gym buddy.

no class for you today, so off you go to the gym with me. i like that your taking interest in gym and exercise at a very young age. i guess we're setting a better example to you at this field? haha!!!

my cheeky litol twinkler.

you insisted on wearing your accessories to school today; necklace, bracelets, shades, and all that jazz. though i have to take out everything before i let you inside the classroom because it's a no, no inside.

werk it, girl.

*apology for the quality of this photo, i took it in a very low lighting and using and an iPad too.

you asked me to take your picture and this is how you work in front of the camera. not bad, girl or i may say you strike a pose better than me with your facial expression and all. 

will you be a model someday? whatever you choose, meme and daddy will be right here to support you.

shhhh

nap time these days are rare and short, so on days that you decide to take a nap (i don't force you to nap anymore) i always made it a point that i get some things done (i.e. take a nap with you or catch up on my reading, or my tv series).

gleek.

we went to Camotes over the weekend to celebrate meme and daddy's 6th wedding anniversary, because we just can't leave you behind you have to tag along. though we know it'll be fun and less stressful to visit the island just meme and daddy but it is surely more fun to have you around. 

here you are in this photo with lake danao as your background. we couldn't wait for more travel and adventure with you my litol love.

twinkler.

my little twinkler. every 1st and last friday you get to wear this uniform and though it's still a tad bigger than you, you still the cutest twinkler at your school (i know i'm biased because i'm your mother). really, you are.

reading.

or pretending to read that is. Every night our negotiation skills are tested. You want us to read 6 or 8 books but we want to read just 2 because it's way past your bedtime, so oftentimes we settled for 3 or 4.  We are so glad you like book or reading for that matter, little one. We just hope you will never lose your passion for books.

sleeping

can someone please tell me when did you stop taking photograph of your sleeping child or children? because even our girl is already 3 we still love to watch her sleep like she's still a new born. and we still can't stop taking photographs of her while she sleeps, especially if her sleeping position is hilarious or her face way too cute not to take picture. i mean, you parents know what i mean, right? 

so, now tell me when did you stop? at what age? i must have a hundred pictures of this face in my iPhoto.

 silly face.

another silly face, i know. apparently that's what you've been doing lately, making silly faces. And conversation with you is more fun as well. here's an example of the conversation you had with your daddy...

daddy: i love you!

indigo: i love you!!

daddy: why do you love daddy?

indigo: because no choice!

hahahaha!!!!

crazy little girl.

because sometime 5 pictures of you are more fun than 1. you asked me to take your picture and this is what you give me. this photo proves that you are your father's daughter and an apple doesn't fall far from the tree after all. Haha!!

beach girl.

**photo grabbed from my friends' IG account, thank you parts for this photo if you happened to read this. :) 

we went to badian with some friends and to say you had a blast is under statement. i mean, you didn't even want to leave! even if we told you there's no internet connection there and mama ni and lolo is not there it still didn't stop you from saying you want live and just stay there for the rest of your life (though, personally i don't know what the rest of my life means to a 3 year old, haha).

good night. 

dream big

"soar up honey,

stars are not too far,

and moon is not out of reach.

dream big; dream high,

nothing will put you down, 

take a step and reach the sky.

the school had their "buwan ng wika" celebration. the pre-school had a dance number and i'm so proud of my 3 year old because she danced the whole production without throwing a fits. good job, babe!

good night two. sweet dreams, my litol girl tomorrow you'll be three! 

3 years old! wow, i can't even begin to tell you how much your presence means to us. daddy and meme love you sobrah, litol girl. happy birthday 

"when I have said my evening prayer, 

and my clothes are folded on my chair,

mama and papa switch off the light,

i'll still be two years old tonight.

but from the very break of the day,

before the children rise and play, 

before the darkness turns gold,

tomorrow i'll be three years old... 

three kisses when i wake,

three candles on my cake.

a good night kiss for the two year old

to send her to sleep and to dreaming.

and blessings to the three year old 

who'll climb out of bed in the morning."

my sassy little girl. 

You're inquisitive, talkative, hard headed, always testing our patience, sweet, smart, you make our life  crazy (a lot), and drain our money. But we love you sobrah! 6 more days and you will be 3, already? Where did the time go?
