More Than A YEAR!!!

Wow! It's been more than a year since I've posted something about my fast growing bubba. I haven't got a clue how to restart this all over again, but I'll do my best to update this blog. You can say that I've been really busy raising my babe and doing business so I didn't get much chance to ramble about my lovely son.

To start off, again, here are his most recent photos :)





I shall blog again soon. :) All I can say at the moment is I LOVE NATE NOW MORE THAN EVER! <3

Giving Birth.

When the bubba that you have been carrying for 9 whole months comes out of you, it truly is a magnificent moment. That very first time you lay eyes on your adorable little angel is priceless. The relief from the anguish and pain of labor is phenomenal! Aaah...That relief is one of the most wonderful things I have ever felt, if not the most. After my agonizing 17-hour labor, anesthesia not taking effect (I had to take the shot 3 times!), pushing an 8.3 lbs. bubba out of my poonanie was nothing. YES, he was that huge! Whenever I visit him at the nursery for his feeding, you'd definitely see that he was the biggest baby amongst everyone else. He was like the dad of all the babies there! It's truly a blessing having him on a Christmas Day all healthy and safe. Papa Jesus loves me so much he gave me Nathanael Alpfonse to inspire and motivate me to be a better person.



And when I brought him home, I never get to sleep properly. Ever. Again. But it's most defitely worth every waking hour staring lovingly at my little big boy. :)

Preggers.

The whole process of pregnancy and giving birth is truly incredible. It is indeed a beautiful miracle.

The moment I realized I was pregnant, I didn't get scared at all. I simply accepted the fact that, yes, I'm going to be a mum soon. I even got excited because I've been kinda wanting a baby already during that time. The problems with being preggers though were 1: I've broken up with the baby's dad before finding out I was pregnant and didn't want to get back with him. 2: I'm trying to patch things up with my current/real boy friend who's in Canada 3: I don't know how to tell my family about it, and 3: I knew I was absolutely going to get fat.

This was me before I got preggers together with my dad and 2 nephews:


Me, 12 weeks preggers with my eldest sister, Leah and her son, Marco...


On my 8th month on my birthday, November 29....


Noticed the transformation? Extremes, right? Hahaha. Anywho, how did I overcome all these problems, you asked? I told my sister, Pinky, who currently resides in California that I've been gaining weight rapidly because I was pregnant. I told her to keep mum about it, but in just seconds she told our mother about it already. To cut the long story short, my mother got disappointed for a little while and pondered real hard on how to tell my father about this pregnancy. Eventually, the whole family gathered and talked about what had happened and what are the plans for my baby. I've apologized to everyone, especially my dad, for my mistakes and the mishaps I brought the family about. Not one in the family felt bad or got furious about my pregnancy, for inside me's the best kind of blessing any woman could have. It woul be a great joy to have an additional member in our family. :) The only dilemma left to deal with was, WOULD I TELL THE FATHER? I honestly didn't want to get him involve anymore so I decided to keep it from him but my eldest sister and even one of my closest friends told me that the baby daddy has every right to know that he's going to have a baby with me. And also, for Nate to know who his dad is someday when he's old enough. I gathered myself to let him, the father, know about my pregnancy and that it's his baby. VERY fortunately, for me, he never replied to my text message. That simply showed how unimportant it was for him so I never bothered him ever. Up until now he never made any effort on checking out how his son is doing or even asked to see my beautiful babe. I never bothered him, he should be thankful. I never asked any support from him and again, he should be thankful. I already forgave him for neglecting his responsibility as a father towards my son and he should definitely be thankful for that. :) I just want to free my soul and spirit from all anger, hatred and any negativity so that I could be the best mother for Nathanael.
And so, after exactly 40 weeks of gaining 70+ lbs, studying make-up artisrty, eating too much, having a protruding tummy, all the backaches, too frequent urination,the amazingly agonizing pain of my 11-hour labor, the best gift was given to me by Papa Jesus on a Christmas morning, the 25th of December, 2010. 

 At 10:08am, my little angel came out. I knew right then and there the moment I met him, I'm head over heels in love. And this love is forever.

Meet my Christmas Babe, Nathanael Alpfonse De Leon. :)





And finally....Me after giving birth!!! With my family and of course, Nathanael. :) His first New Year. 2011.


You see a family bonded together when a crisis impends unknowingly. Now I know how my family's got my back whatever may happen.

How Do I Start?

Hmmm....I'll be blogging about everything that I have experienced with Nathanael from the moment I found out I was pregnant to the present. I'll try and keep this blog updated but for now I actually haven't got time yet to post stuff and tell you about my wonderful little man so I'll just post some photos of him here that I took this afternoon. Enjoy and God bless! :)
HMPH! Snob! ;)


I love my bubba!
