newborn portrait

Erin's first photoshoot when was 10days old. Taken by Leny Cruzado at the Iron house.

what's in her name...

The girl’s name Erin is pronounced E-rin. It is Gaelic origin, and the meaning of Erin is “Ireland”.

The girl’s name Danielle is pronounced dan-YELL. It is of Hebrew and French origin and the meaning of Danielle is “God is my Judge”. (Her Lolo’s name is also Daniel)

Her nickname is Nixie

It is a combination of Daddy and Mommy’s names (roex and niña).

The girl’s name Nixie is Old German origin, and the meaning of Nixie is “water sprite”. Usually beautiful.

While Erin was still in my tummy, my mom called her "CARMENCITA". It started when the doctor suspected her gender on 16weeks. I was very excited and so everybody was.

10 days old

birth of erin danielle

It has been 4 months now since I delivered our baby girl. And so here is a short story about her birthday. On december 26, 2010 morning my labored started. My husband brought me to the Asian hospital (not in a rush-- not that kind of panicky attack when someone in labor) at 11am. My doctor, Dra Florendo already ordered the Genesis (labor section) to prepare for my admission. I was quite nervous but everything has to happen so quickly. At 5pm, we were told that they should do an emergency CS since the baby already pooped inside my tummy. Then next thing i know i was in the recovery room. I was put sleep since ive been screaming at the Doctors. I rememebered shouting "Doc, it so ouchie.. it is so painful". then all of a sudden i see all white...

I did not see my daughter as soon as she was delivered. I first saw her at the camera..the photos took by roex during the operation. At first, i didnt believe that she was our daughter... she was the prettiest baby i have ever seen (as what every mother say). but really she is a very pretty baby...

Meet Erin Danielle, 7lbs 8oz. , 53cm length, born at 5:59pm Dec 26, 2011

Iron house

we bought this little house way back in 2009. We bought it as preowned house and it can be described as old, ruined, not liveable house. see the before and after photos...

Before:

After:

See the big transition?! No architecturing, no interior designing, it was just my husband, me and mang roy, the carpenter who made the makeover on this old house...  No matter how small and old this house was, i, now,so love it..
It is our home sweet home... Our little nesting place.. And I am proud to say that roex and I have started on having this one.
