First Swimming for the Year

Despite the cool weather we're enjoying in our part of the world, once in a while, the sun seems to stretch out its arms and reminds us of summer's heat.  Then we seek relief from the cool waters of the clubhouse pool :D

My SIL and her friend brought with them pasta, cake and snacks to nibble on.  Bro even bought us dinner at Max's :D  The kids had fun bonding together, we missed the rest of the family though.  There's always next week ;)

I want to swim!

Can you tell

Sabi kasi ng tita ko dati, para daw akong itik na mahilig maglandi ng tubig. Nadatnan na lang daw nya ako minsang tuwang tuwa at basa habang nagtatampisaw saking ihi hehe

Anyways, sunday, Dani hadnt had her afternoon nap yet, so imagine her tactically not requesting for her dede (as she needs to lie down and she might fall asleep while finishing her dede) so she made do with crackers, raisins and even asked for a peanut sandwhich except her dede. What we did was we took off her bathing suit, she's too sleepy to protest, loudly cried nonetheless, and sent her home. Minutes later, she fell asleep.

First thing she said when she woke up, her eyes barely open:

I want to swim!

Contemplating on enrolling her in a swimming class for the summer. Sana meron akong makitang malapit. I'll have to check their safety equipment though so better kung mismo dito samin though I know mas mahal unless may kasabay sya. I'm thinking din if I should buy the swim board I saw yesterday. First things first though, kelangan ko nang bumili ulit ng sunblock!

Summer is here!

Morning was spent painting with Dani, all is casual and ordinary. Imagine my surprise when my SIL texted me around 11am asking me if we'll drop by their place today for Zach's 3rd Birthday. Hala, I thought it will be celebrated next saturday pa.

So I told my parents who likewise was confused about the schedule. They decided to just go visit next week. Hindi ko yata kakayanin ma-miss ang birthday ng pamangkin ko so kahit hindi kami prepared eh nagayos na kami papunta dun. Wala kaming regalo tapos i was planning pa sana to bring some balloons din. Haay, buti na lang meron pa kaming 3pcs na balloons so meron kahit papaano :p

It was already past 4pm when we got there. Dumaan pa kasi kami ng Pavillion Mall to buy ice cream, toy car and ball for zach. Eto pa, my SIL forgot to tell me na swimming party ito. So ang anak ko nagswimming ng nakapambahay haha. Syempre pinwersa ko si yaya na samahan ang alaga nya, pinanghiram ko na lang ng pambasa :)

Bro, sent the album link to your mail ;) Meanwhile here are some of the photos I took :)

Palm Sunday 2008

Yey, we were able to attend the mass :) Hay.. honestly we're an occasional church goer hehe hirap din kasi pag kasama namin si Dani. I don't get to concentrate on the mass tapos naiinip pa sya agad. Not to mention mga kasama mo na nadi-distract kay Dani. Anyways, basta happy ako may palaspas kami :)

After hearing mass direcho shopping hehe actually nasa loob ng SM yung mass kaya ganun. Eh kahapon may binili akong tights kay dani na super tight so sinoli ko na lang and bought white pants for her instead. Managed to score also white sandals. 3day sale kasi so syempre nakaka-enganyo bumili.

Maaga naman kami natapos, we just bought Andoks chicken and liempo and had lunch at home na lang. Around past 4pm, nagpaalam ako kay hubby na magswimming kami ni dani :) Nakup yung dalawang swimsuit na binili ko before kay dani, masikip talaga kahit pa yung isa 2yo ang size tapos yung isa 3yo, tsk. Anyways, enjoy na naman si kulit magtampisaw sa tubig. Buti hindi nagwala nung niyaya na naman syang umahon :) 5:30 pa lang, bagsak na ang anak ko. Napagod hehe kami din kaya ni hubby, masakit ang mga braso kaka-karga kasi.

Yun na lang muna kwento, bukas na lng ulit. Hope you guys had a great weekend!

Today wasn't as sunny as yesterday. However, I pleaded to hubby to let Dani swim at the pool even for 15mins. Hindi naman sa gusto kong lumala ang ubo ng anak ko pero, I just know that she'll have a blast in the water for a change.

True enough, nagenjoy sila ng pinsan nya. Buchoy initially didn't want to swim. Later on, nainggit na yata kay Dani and decided to join us kahit walang dalang swim wear. Haay, just seeing my daughter squeal from delight, talagang it makes my heart melt. Sana lang wag akong magsisi mamaya. So far, she's not showing any signs of colds kundi patay ako kay hubby hehe

Need humidifiers for summer?
