Maxyn turned 10-months-old last Friday

Look how fast time flies. I was so busy attending to my ballerina’s needs that I was not able to take photos of Maxyn’s monthly celebration.

To be fair with this little angel, I did not forget that she will be turning 10-months already. In fact, a few days ahead, I bought the ingredients for my Creamy Carbonara (I can’t believe I haven’t blogged about this recipe!). So that Friday, I cooked the pasta before heading to ballet class. My in-laws cooked Dinuguan. Then after ballet, we bought some Selecta-Hershey’s ice cream. Maxyn doesn’t like Carbonara that much but she enjoyed Dinuguan and ice cream to bits that she kept on asking for more.

Here are Maxyn’s milestones/developments:

  • Pulls herself up a lot.
  • Eats more variety of food.
  • Can sit longer.
  • Can stand for a while with back support.
  • Says a few recognizable words like mam-mam, ba-na-na.
  • Shows a bit of stranger-anxiety.
  • Has more hair now.
  • Has firmer grip.
  • Crawls really fast.
  • Walks with only one-hand-support.
  • Now weighs 10.4kg.

Another Toxic Weekend

There is just a week left before our little ballerina’s grand recital at Meralco theater and they have practices even on Sundays!

Today, we attended a 1st birthday celebration. We made the girls wear identical dresses, which was a hit to the visitors who know them. Many cannot believe that Maxyn is a girl and that she is just 10-months-old. I hate it when they think my precious baby is a boy because of her short hair.

After the birthday, we went to the mall to get some groceries. I let Ayex play some arcade games that earned her tickets, which she exchanged for candies! After that, the hubby some new polos. While he was paying, Maxyn kept on shouting. She only stopped when she was given some candy to taste. Then Ayex also chimed in that she is already hungry. I bought some breads from the supermarket’s bakery, which made me think I am such a bread eater. Hubby sort or craved for halo-halo so we went to Iceberg! After that, we went to the grocery, but did not get a lot because hubby said the prices are too steep compared to where we usually get our supplies! He only bought the ingredients of his saging con yelo for tomorrow.

I hope after the recital, Sundays would be spent at home again. I miss waking up late on weekends.
