Fact:
I love taking pictures of my children- well who doesn't? Every
move, be it funny or weird candid moments-we just want to capture them all! My
project last year was to compile 12 photos that will represent Aloncito's first
year- so that means 1 photo per month. The stage mom in me wanted to put more effort on it and when I say effort, full production! So if you wanna give it a try, here are tips on how to document baby milestones without having to
book a professional photographer.

January 7, 2017 (1.7.17) was our original wedding date.
Everything was set and suppliers were booked until we found out I was pregnant with
BB2! I quickly postponed everything because I don't want to be in a
hurry and I was so damn sure that I will still have that baby weight by then!
Lucky for us, we didn't have to pay additional fees for postponing the big day
and I still had enough time to burn those fats!
You have to understand that after having two kids, I have successfully achieved dark under eye circles, for free! It’s true that moms won’t have the same amount of sleep once they have the little ones around. And so I began researching for the perfect eye products that could at least conceal the darkness and get rid of puffiness. But whatever it is that i use, be it drugstore or high end product, I end up not getting that satisfaction and I almost gave up on finding the one! Now I saw a whole new light when I was introduced to Belo’s Starwalker treatment.
What? Aloncito goes to school already? Why?- I got mixed reactions when my friends found out I spent some Saturday afternoons attending a baby class. I was introduced to Teacher Tanya Velasco’s Parent-Infant Class just when Aloncito turned 3 months old. Her classes are held in La Vista which is soooo convenient for me so I decided to give it a try.Ok, it’s not the lecture kind of class but more on group discussion type so you don’t need to take down notes. It’s very interactive and natural as you get to talk to other parents (including the handsome dads) about their baby’s milestones and how their babies are at home. It is also a venue for moms to voice out their concerns on raising babies and how else they could effectively build a healthy relationship with their babies.
