Growing up so fast

August is growing up so fast. She's now playing with us, she turns over by herself, she makes funny noises already, and she's beginning to interact and explore her surroundings. She's just a bundle of joy. I can't wait to get home each day and play with her or just stare at her. She's really a growing miracle.

It's Official - I'm a DAD

September 19, 2008.

Finally, finally, finally...after almost three weeks of waiting...Carmel August is born. Of course, after a lot of hard work from her mom. 

I think it was around 1:30 that she was born. She's just a pretty little package.

Thank God for all the blessings, for watching Carmel all this time, for keeping her and her mom healthy and for the successful birth.

Gotta take care of my baby first while waiting for her mom to wake up.

Later.

The 8th Month

So much has happened since my February post. Our baby has really grown well inside her mom's womb, and with God's help, everything will be alright.

We already know that it's a baby girl.

She is now on her 34th week so we're really getting close. Our OB, Doc Michelle says that the baby could come out as early as the 2nd week of September or until the last week of September. 

We still have a lot of stuff to get for her. We still have a lot of preparations before she arrives.

Heart beat

We saw the most amazing, the most beautiful thing we ever saw yesterday -- our baby's heartbeat. WOW! How can something so puny, have a heartbeat already? He/she is 7 1/7 weeks old now. The doctor says it's doing just nicely there inside. Although, I can't say the same about the mom. The baby's giving her a lot of discomfort, but for sure, it's going to be worth it.

'Next check-up's next month. Wish us luck!

Hanging with my wife

Just hanging with my wife watching Desperate Housewives on DVD. It's just me, her, and the dog.

It's been a week now since we learned that we're going to have a baby and the family (my family), wants her to rest here at home to make sure she doesn't get shaken up too much lest anything happen.

Daddy-to-be

I'm gonna be a daddy, dada, tatay, papa...or whatever else you might want to call it. This sure is something. A crossover of sorts. From a whatever-hell-may-bring to I-need-to-be-more-responsible kind of guy.

Wow!

This is my first entry into this blog so I'll keep it brief for now.
