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.

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...

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.

catching up...

posting things that have passed for quite some time now. i just want to document  those things..

nine months

The nine months was endless.. When i found out i was pregnant roex and i said it shouldn't change our lives.We should continue do our normal and regular things. But on my 3rd month of pregnancy, i had heavy bleeding after my trip from the US for business. From then on my things to do was limited. I was on bedrest for about three times. i have to take leave from work. Nevertheless, we survived, my baby is here now very healthy and  growing up too fast.

at 32 weeks

"before you were born i carried you under my heart..from

the moment you arrived in this world until the moment I leave it.

I will always carry you in my heart."

tied the knot..

it seems special events that happened to me fell on the month of the december. I got engaged on Dec 2007... i got married on dec 5,2008... then i gave birth to our first baby on dec 26, 2010..

Just to share a little bit of our wedding, visit our wedsite : Love Beyond Measure
I just can't believe it has been 2 years now, 2 years and 5 months to be exact. Our wedding was so special, it was really a dream come true. I really felt it was a fairytale on the very day. It had to pass so fast. Parang kailan lang, we were just scouting for suppliers, meeting up with coordinators, going to my couturier for my gown, visiting a thousand of wedding sites, and buying alot of wedding magazines. Everything was so sudden..
