Happy Wordless! And thanks for peeking!

 

6 months and 4 weeks!

My little peanut that is! ;-) I have so much to share about his development but I always run out of time this days. For now, I will just share that he got “2 teeth” already!!! I am so happy and proud! He didn’t experience any problems and I am thankful! He turns and wants to crawl now. He loves to eat and drinks his milk. He smiles a lot and loves music! He cannot sleep if there is no music in the background. He loves his big brother the most! And he can recognize his name when we call him! He loves to be tickled too:) And he is 8.4 kg now! :D There are more but will do that later!BabyCenter sent me this.

You’ve heard the expression “a bouncing baby boy”? If you prop your baby upright on your thighs, you’ll likely see some bouncing up and down. Bouncing is great exercise for those little legs and will help ready your baby for standing, crawling, and eventually walking. This exciting development is also a gentle reminder that it’s a good idea to start childproofing your home now in preparation for the scooting and crawling just ahead.

He is totally growing up so fast! The photo was taken last week when his big bro turned 6 years old! We had a small gathering at my Parents house! ;-)

 

Curious as a Cat

1) What is the worst thing you’ve ever said to your mother?
+ “I don’t like you”. But I didn’t really mean it. I was just a little disappointed.

2) If you could have avoided knowing about one thing during your life, what would it be, and why?
+ Nothing.

3) What is the strongest part of your marriage/partnership?
+ The husband and me are the best buds! I am his bestfriend and he is to me! We aren’t just husband and wife, but we are the partner in everything!

4) What would your heaven be like?
+Full of flowers, gardens, flowing water at the middle of all the beautiful creations.

5) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.

Counseling

I was surfing the net to find really nice quotes about personal problems and how to deal with those. I just thought having quotes will help you through the day specially if you are dealing problems. Well, I am not having big time problems, thank God! But a friend of mine. So, thought of sharing quotes to her! And I chanced up with this values based counseling. I think she really need counseling. I already told her about it and she is open to my suggestions too. Since this site is a directory for all any kind of counseling and is licensed. I’m sure she can find what she want and at least she can talk to the right counselor. And can help her along the way and what she is feeling right now. So, if you think you need help and looking for a reliable counselor nearest you, check this Counseling Los Angeles. And know that they have an E-counselor listings too! Check out for more informations.

Anyway, I really wish and hope my friend can find what she really want. She’s been having problems and it’s not just some problem. God thing I found out about this site. It says in their site that no matter what you are facing right now, they are adaptable, easy to deal with and capable of helping you start a new journey towards healing and a new life! Good Luck to those of you who are facing some rough roads!
