A very serious birthday boy
"My hands are praying, praying, praying! My hands are praying just like this. Thank you Lord for the food we're about to eat. Amen!"
Happy Birthday, Duncan!
Duncan's 3rd Birthday CakeMy 3rd birthday celebration is quite simple but enjoyable. In the morning, I woke up and was greeted with hugs and kisses by Daddy and Mommy. I also went down the laundry area to greet yaya because it also is her birthday.
At 12pm, Dad and Mom arrived at the school for my party. I got so excited to see them! Mom cooked all my favorite food : kiddie spaghetti, hotdogs and nuggets. For the drinks, it was my favorite tetra packed juice. I choose Thomas and friends to be my theme but it was really hard looking for favors and cake to suit my theme. I think it worked out just fine, with my cake having Thomas at the center and everything else was a DIY. My friend, Nicco, lend us his Thomas banner (so sweet!).
I lead the prayer and then my classmates sang a birthday song for me under the parachute and then I blew the candle in my birthday cake. And then we eat. Unfortunately for me, I was so excited, I was not able to eat well. After eating, I went to give them their lootbags while receiving my gifts! Thank you to my classmates: Ayra, Julienne, Manu, Ria, Nicco, CJ and Iggy who were all present to celebrate my birthday.
We went to Trinoma that night to have dinner and to eat my favorite "chicke" at Bacolod Chicken Inasal. I usually eat half a cup of rice everytime I eat in this place and tonight is no exception.
Checking on the menu...
"Kinilig kay Juday!"
Tasting the soup
Duncan and Daddy
Mommy!Dad and mom actually allow me to go wherever I want in the mall and so I went to my favorite part of all... the play area! I got to climb like spiderman! and to slide and to do anything I want! I really have fun!
How 'bout that?In the evening, Ninang Julie was there to see me. Its been a year since I last see her.
Random facts about me as I turned 3:
- I'm the sweetest guy in the world.
I love kisses and hugs and when mom gets hurt, (most of the time because I am so hyper) I see to it that I touch her and blow the part where she is hurt. There is also a kiss and a hug ready when Dad and Mom arrive home from office. I love it when mommy rocks me in a rocker until I fall asleep. For sure she will terribly miss this when I grow older (by then she cannot hold me any longer ...)
- I usually like to be on my Daddy's side during weekends.
When he is doing something other than play with me, i'll see to it that I get the attention I needed. I climb on his back...press the keyboard of this laptop as fast as i can...seat on his lap...grab his screwdrivers and hammer or whatever it is in his hands while he is reparing something. Well, sometimes he just laughs at it but sometimes.... I ran to mommy when his face turned red. I like to follow him everywhere because I know every weekend is a get-away-from-the-house-day where we went to the mall, or grocery... I always wanted to be sure they will not leave me behind.
- I sleep beside Mommy.
We co-sleep. We have combined Daddy's bed when he was still young (which I now use) and a king sized bed so we have a huge sleeping space. But mom or dad carries me back to my pillow every twice or more times in the middle of the night because I always end up at the wrong side of the bed. The solution that mom did was to sleep at the bottom part so I am spared of ending up at the floor.
- I am diaper free.
Although sometimes... there were accidental leaks... it happens to everyone... right? I just cannot keep it a secret when I poop because it helps when I say o - oooooooooooooohhhh until I shout "finish now!"
- I am still in my infant formula
What can I do I am loyal to my formula? From NAN-HA 1 & 2 , I am now in NAN 3. Still drinking from my ever favorite Avent Feeding Bottle (I hate the smell of milk).
- I love singing and dancing
Mom and I sings "I love you song" of Barney every night. I sang to the rain to stop when its raining. My favorite song includes: twinkle twinkle little star, you'll be in my heart, Sesame st songs, Fun song factory songs. I dance to the rhythm of the song either slow and fast beat... hotdog, hotdog! (from mickey mouse clubhouse)
- I know how to ride my bike
But still with balancer. At least I know how to pedal the right way.
- I loved going to school
I'm very attentive... according to teacher.
- I have my own laptop (courtesy of Dad)
Where I usually plays "Jumpstart"
- I am so fascinated about all the things that Daddy do
Which sometimes puts me in trouble...
- I like going inside the cabinets
Entry to the left door and exit to the right door. This causes mom's insanity to kick in because then she will redo the folds of all the shirts inside.
- Eating is my less favorite thing to do
I'm a terrible eater as I don't usually eat by myself.... there were glorious times however, when I went to "Atchi" to request her to cook my chicken nuggets with fun shapes and eat the whole thing up without having to wash my hands in between.
- I hate dirt
My clothes should be always dry and clean, otherwise i will end up being naked. I hate it when my hands become dirty or sticky.
- I love to play
From stuffed toys to cars to trains to the things under the mattress to the things inside the ref to the things inside the helper's room, to the playstation of Ninong Ian, to Mama's make-up (they were nice crayons!), to the small fragile pigs under the living room table to the wooden cows standing at the porch, to the smallest garbage blown by the wind in the garage, to yaya's used water in the laundry area, to the soap in the bathroom, to the neighbor's cats and dogs, basically anything except cockroaches, living lizards and ugly little bugs.
- I love arts
I love to cut paper and then stick it in the wall using a tape. Our wall now was well decorated with all the stuff I wanted. Most of them were usually pictures of Jollibee, mickey mouse, cars, even my favorite "moonmilk mascot".
- I love bubbles
I love it specially when mommy blows bubbles when I'm taking a bath. Bubble in my tummy, bubble in my hands... bubbles... bubbles!
And Daddy and Mommy loves me so much.
