Hailey laughs

Hailey laughed with sound today. She usually has big smiles but she has a silent laugh. But today while lying on the sponge during bath time, she sees Griffin and laughed a few times. It was a joy to hear since she rarely does it.

Hailey loves Griffin so much. She laughs when she sees him and she also loves to touch his face and hair. I hope they would always love each other.

Good Reader

Griffin is a very good reader. He's a good sight reader but we tried asking him to read Tagalog words, he can also easily read them. He does not read them per syllable. He just says the whole word right away. I bought him a vcd and cd of Filipino songs to help him learn to speak Filipino. I hope he learns through singing the songs. I hope he'll be able to speak and understand simple Filipino before next school year.

Hailey is 5 months old

Hailey turned 5 months old last October 20. She can sit down assisted and sometimes she can sit by herself altough not with her back straight. She has really strong legs as she can stand up with some support. She still screams specially if she wants something or when she wants me to carry her. She can easily turn over already. She likes grabbing whatever you're holding, particularly glasses and plates. She likes to eat just about anything. She is short tempered though, specially when she tries to bite her teethers. She bites them then after a while she gets so frustrated that she starts to cry. We might start her with solid food by next month. I hope we won't have problems feeding her.

Mooncake Festival

We played the dice game in celebration of the Mooncake Festival last October 3. Griffin won First prize in the second round. I hope this brings him luck all year.

Hailey's Baptism

Hailey is now a Christian. She was baptized at Our Lady of La Paz Parish at 11 o'clock this morning. She was well behaved for the Baptismal Ceremony and only started crying when it was time for picture taking. Her Ninongs were Apit, VJ and Alvin while her Ninangs were Iper, Nikki and Cathy. After the Baptism, we went to Max's Restaurant to eat lunch.
