Amika + Good Morning Sunday | Baby and Childhood Photography

A beautiful Sunday morning to see my little girl's lovely 

and adorable smile. Amika told me that she 

wants to wear her boots and asked me to take a picture

of her wearing it! haha, she's too cute not to accept

her offer! And there she goes, went to her space 

and started posing, and of course showing off her 

infamous serious look! :) A couple of more shots, then

she's off, hurriedly came to me and said no more.. haha!

She sure knows when to stop :)

So, here goes my little princess' selected photos taken 

on a Beautiful Sunday Morning!

Aeron S. Reyes | Baby and Childhood Photography

He got the most dazzling eyes I've ever seen! 

Meet our very cutie baby boy, Aeron S. Reyes!

From the little footsteps to the bigger ones, he truly proved her mom and dad that he's on his way to the biggest moment of his childhood life. 

Just a month to go, and he's turning one! So, it's time for him to have his very own spotlight first before his big day :)

  

And here goes his charming and definitely fun bit by bit photo session with me! 

Joanna + Intramuros | Photo shoot

Meet our dainty and sweet JM

She's a natural! It was an impromptu shoot for her coz the whole day we we're taking photos of random structures, but by the end of the day she made one pose that leads to another and another... and another :) It was really fun and amazing, all of us girls enjoyed the session!

Photoblog: Amika in B&W

Our Amika is fast growing up, and because of that I love to take pictures of her while she have her milestones just kept on coming! And what makes me really happy is that I have seen her smile, laugh, giggle and look at the camera all at the same time! lol 

When I got my new DSLR cam, I hurriedly took pictures of her wearing her fave dresses! So now, I'm glad that I can post one of our mini pictorial from last week. 

Here are some of my baby amika's photos in black & white.

Her eyes were fixed on the balloon, it was a good thing that she looked at the cam once in a while :)

He Loves Me.....

He Loves me........

I miss blogging so much! and it took me almost a year to write another post, and tada! it's gonna be just in a jiffy! heh :P So, my first blog after a long break is just a little something about my son whom I just love so much! Here's my son with his photo taken during our trip in Iloilo last January. Maybe, I can write more about our breathtaking 4 day vacation in Iloilo the next time I post. But, for now I have to sleep :) 

Here's Kodi so much happy! He asked me to help him write his name and these adorable message for me "Kodi loves Mama"... Thank you so much my son! I Love You!

Goodbye July

...And yes it's the last day of the busy month for me, and it made me miss my blogs so much! I can't believe how time flies in a swoosh.. so not to make my July sad, I'm dipping a little note for her :) 


What Happened to my July?
Well, I can't tell everything nor I can't make a detailed list of all those biggie and itsy-bitsy stuff here :) I'll just post some random things... 
I had busy weekdays because it's the crucial month for my son in going to school, I was with him all the time, because he's a bit shy until now.. lol.
I was doing digital painting and photomanipulation to make my portfolio go extra thick.. hehe 
I fixed things here and there.
Attended meetings, events, etc.
and some other loaded stuff, I rather not write it here.. hehe


So, how much did I miss July?! I super duper miss everything about July ;)


And to make my July totally picture perfect updated... here are photos of my baby Amika going 6 months on the 4th of August :) 

Parenting: Back to School

It's back to school for my 3 year old boy. And, it's always a delight to buy school stuff for my son and prepare them. For moms like me, we want to make sure that everything is nifty and organized. Names are well-placed in every corner of the books, notebooks, envelopes, etc., I even put names on every color of the crayons, lol, this is in case if he left any at school, his teachers and classmates will easily know that it belongs to my son. 

For now, I only bought things that are necessary and inexpensive stuff that he needed for school. We already have some of the requirements, so we didn't purchase much this time. And I'm so happy that I was able to keep the budget, only it went 50php beyond I expected, but it was worth it :) So, here goes the list.

Colored Paper √

Single Box of Crayons provided

Mongol Pencil #1 √

Elmer's glue √

Scissors provided

Rags provided

Clay provided 

Drawing book √

Water Color √

Folder with fastener √

Pentel pen provided

Cartolina √

Manila paper √

Colored Envelope for Boys (Blue) √

And there goes my big savings, 9 out of 14 :)

So, moms the next time you buy stuff for your kids don't let it go to waste, keep them inside an enclosed storage to maintain its value. You can then use it next school year ;)

new and old stuff 

Books provided by the School

Single crayons for school and "so big" crayons for home study

new bag - gift from mamita

Look at the eraser, It has kodi's name as well :)

The red pen is mine, I use this for checking Kodi's activities at home

water color in transparent and with two brushes, because Kodi likes everything by two's :)

It's nice to have envelopes like these, makes the children learn the alphabet anytime they carry it.

Make sure to buy more than one or two pencils, always a clever to have an extra ;)

yes i know, even the scissors got kodi's name ^^

the many, the merrier :)

my super excited little student

with his adorable expression
