Changes...

So i've not been blogging for more than a month... blame it on my raging pregnancy hormones. i'm too sick.., too tired.., or too lazy most of the time. So there. =)

But i promise to make up for it by making this reaally long post which i hope will not bore u to death... hahaha! :D

After the announcement that we were pregnant, of course, blow-outs and celebrations followed. We treated some friends, officemates, and family members (in separate occasions of course) soon after. I guess we just couldn't contain our happiness and excitement that we just had to share it to the world...

..And special thanks goes out to everyone who prayed for us, congratulated us and even gave sound advices and tips... you're all a blessing!

Remember my wedding coordination stint which was supposed to be this august? I had to let go of it...

It was an inevitable decision but i had no regrets whatsoever. Right now, my priority is this baby and the stress that i know comes with the job has got to go. Fortunately, the bride to be, was very understanding and even very supportive. Thanks, jez. I can only wish her a successful and a beautiful wedding. I know the coordinator i recommended will do a great job... =)

Speaking of letting go.., the Boracay trip with Aion and Yna won't be pushing thru this Sept. We had to cancel our reservations (Cebu Pacific P10 fare) upon learning that i was pregnant. At first, i still wanted to go... but as i picture myself in a two-piece with a big stomach bulge, somehow, it just didn't appeal to me... hahah! Next year guys... ;)

I'm on a three-month leave from work.

This was actually suggested by my mother in law and my mommy because at the start of the pregnancy, i had this frequent abdominal pain which, i've read from my pregnancy books, were danger signs. It was scary... but luckily, after a couple of weeks of complete rest, the pain finally disappeared.

So now, i'm on vacation but sadly, not enjoying it to the fullest... well, these pregnancy symptoms sometimes gets the better of me and leaves me feeling miserable... :( and can anyone take this summer heat??? arrrghhhh!!!

Jon's 27th birthday. No surprises this time. Yep, too lazy. heheh!

I just got him a bass stand and a guitar strap and spent an entire day cooking for the twins' bday celeb here at home (a few days before their actual natal day)... some of the dishes i prepared: hardinera, suzi wong (like cordon bleu), asparagus with bacon, spicy wings, fried chix... Man, was it tiring!!! But the compliments i received that night more than made up for it. =)

Jon n I stayed at Astoria Plaza in Ortigas for 3d2n (the first night was another gift) and had a very relaxing time. Buhay-baboy was a more appropriate term.

We came back home Thursday afternoon and met up with Aion and Yna for Visita Iglesia that evening. We completed the 14 stations of the cross but only got to visit 7 churches around Manila (we were done at past 12 midnight already). For the past two or three years, Jon and i were not able to do this coz we were always out-of-town so this was a welcome change... and yes, the visita merienda was delish... ryt, guys? ;) bwahahaha!

So what else happened?


...i had my first transV ultrasound at the request of my OB last apr 17... this deserves a separate post, but to sum it up, the feeling that i experienced was nothing compared to anything i've ever felt before... all the uncomfortable symptoms, the large increase in the scales,.. all those were forgotten as i caught sight of my baby inside my womb. It was a miracle indeed...

...i'll be a matron of honor at my sister's wedding on july 15. - we had measurement taking last apr 23 and of course i had to stress that i'll be gaining weight for sure so my dress should better have room for major adjustments!


...i've been missing out on a lot of things at the office... grrr. the Zambales outing, the team-building in Antipolo, the volleyball games... haay... maybe i need another ultasound... ;)
