I was half-awake at 6am and papi woke up and stayed with me on my queen bed until papi's alarm went off at 6:20am. I was happy to see papi and I drank my milk. Then I went and wake up mommy :)
After sending papi home, mommy and I went to the playground at our complex. Mommy thinks it's a good idea as well that I exercise in the morning. But I didn't want to go home and so mommy had to bring me back home.
And since I woke up pretty early, my nap time is about 9:30am. After my nap, we went to Aunt Irene's place. Mommy wants to get some item fom her. But first, we went to 19th street to get some dimsum :) We stayed at Aunt Irene for two hours before picking papi up. This is because, we'll be going to Stanford Mall today to get prunes for Uncle Sendy. Mommy also asked papi to get the number for CPK at Stanford because she wanted to order pizza. Mommy is planning to give the other pizza for Aunt Nicole's friend who brought some item from Indonesia. Mommy ordered the Sicilian Pizza because Milan or Sweet Italian Sausage Pizza is not available for CPK ASAP. I was thirsty as well so mommy got a cup of water, with a slice of lemon and straw. I was holding it by myself and walking. Papi didn't want me to spill all over so papi picked me up. I thought that papi is going to take away my drink so I cried.
After getting prune from Sigona's Market at Stanford, we went to Cupertino, and while in the car, papi asked for a drink from me. But I didn't want to give to papi because I was afraid that papi will take it away. Now papi is really thirsty so he asked nicely couple of times and said "please" and took my drink.. AAAAAHHHHH.. Then both mommy and papi told me that I need to share. After papi finished drinking, papi gave my drink back :) and said "thank you". Mommy and papi wanted me to learn my manners and sharing.
When we got back, we all ate dinner. At first, I didn't want to eat until mommy took out a pizza and I was interested. I took some bites off mommy's pizza. Then papi also fed me until I realized that the sausage is a little spicy. It was burning my tongue and I cried. Mommy then gave me apple juice and I drank almost half. Mommy also heated up my food but I didn't want to eat.
Since I haven't slept since 11am, papi gave me a bath and asked me to drink my milk. I went poo in my potty first before going to sleep :)
About 10pm, I woke up again so papi put me on my queen bed. I was sleeping by myself last night too. Then suddenly, mommy and papi heard a loud thud. I actually fell out of bed!!! Mommy and papi rushed to my room only to find out that I was crying. Both mommy and papi tried to calm me down and check on me as well but I was ok after that. Thank God I'm ok. Mommy is still worried and papi said that I'm ok as well. Since I'm not vomitting, I was able to drink my milk, I was able to move. So mommy accompanied me in my queen bed :) Before sleeping, papi prayed first. Good night Jesus, I love You and mommy and papi as well.

I woke up a little late today so papi had to wait for the next train to come. Papi is busy with work lately because of the software release soon.
When it was time for me to take my nap, mommy put me in the crib. But I didn't want to sleep and wanted to play some more. After seeing mommy, I tried to climb out of the crib. Before mommy tried to catch me... I flipped over and somersault out of the crib!!! Mommy shouted and so I cried. Mommy told papi about this incident and papi was shocked and called but I went to sleep. Thank God I'm ok.
Tonight, papi asked me to sleep by myself and after drinking my milk, I went back to sleep again on my queen bed. Lately, I've been waking up late at night. Mommy and papi was wondering why because I used to sleep all the night.

Before church, papi took some pictures of me using a pen. It looks like I'm writing some notes :) Also, papi sang songs to me so that I can make some expressions. Here for example, "if you happy and you know it, then your face will surely show it" :)
Also today at church, there will be baby dedication for Steve. As usual, everyone arrived early because papi has LCD ministry. Papi is also training Uncle Erick. Mommy on the other hand is trying to catch up with me. I just have too much energy running here and there.
After the church service, there was food that was brought by Uncle Hendra and Aunt Windy. It's traditional indonesian food :) and I have no trouble eating it. Actually, I was eyeing on the prawn crackers. Uncle Caofen actually gave me some and I gulf it all down!!! Papi took some of the food and the prawn crackers and settle down outside. There were too many people in the sanctuary.
After papi prayed and give thanks to the Lord, I didn't want to eat the food. I just wanted the prawn crackers for appetizer. But papi insist that I eat the food and that's when I throw my hands out and hit papi. The next thing I know, papi's glasses flew out and hit the ground. OOppps.. But I still kept on whining and wanting for the prawn crackers.
Then papi calmly brought me into the sound room and gave me a warning that I shouldn't be throwing tantrum. If I don't want to eat, then I can just say it nicely. But since I just want the prawn crackers, papi didn't want me to eat snacks. Papi's reason is that, if you don't want to eat dinner, then how can I still be able to eat prawn crackers.
So papi brought me outside again and tried again. But I was whining again and papi then carried me and told mommy that I will be staying in the car. Obviously, I was making a scene and papi didn't want me to do that and so papi gave me a timeout. Sooner or later, I will need to learn and be discipline as well.
After that, mommy join in and we went home. Then papi realized that I already had my dinner. Well papi didn't know and thought that I wanted to eat. Papi apologized to me and I was ok. I'm sorry too papi that I throw my tantrum and hit your glasses as well.

I didn't wake up the normal time today so papi went to Caltrain Santa Clara by himself. Mommy is actually with me and enduring her headache. It was not until 11am that mommy told papi to come back. Papi tried to go home earlier than usual. Mommy didn't want papi to get into trouble because mommy has been not feeling too good and had to work from home lately.
With mommy's pregnancy, it's quite hard for mommy. She's been vomitting a lot and having headache. So mommy has been resting all the time.
Papi came back at around 2:45pm and took over taking care of me, while mommy slept. Papi also tries to multi-task from taking care of me, working, and checking on mommy. In the evening, papi gave me a haircut. But in the end, mommy took over because papi didn't cut it properly :) It's ok papi, you just do what you do best and cutting hair is not your forte.

After sendind papi to Caltrain Santa Clara, we went home. And as I was walking out from the parking lot to the elevator, I fell!!! Since I have shorts, my left knee and right arm has some cuts and I bled. Mommy told papi about the incident and thank God it's not bleeding a lot.
Mommy and I will go to Aunt Lenny's home today and have lunch. I slept until 11am so we didn't go to the Rivermark park. I had a blast at Aunt Lenny and I couldn't stay still. I was playing with Naemi as well and giggling as I touch her face. She's just a little baby :)
At about 4:30pm, it was time for mommy and I to pick up papi. Aunt Airin and Naemi will be coming with us because we live in the same condo. It took a while for mommy and Aunt Airin to put in the seat. Mommy had to move my seat to the side and put Naemi's seat in the middle.
While in the car, I couldn't stop talking and Naemi is sleeping. I told papi what happen and papi just said.. "Oh.. I see... and then" :) Well I know papi doesn't understand yet but I kept on talking and talking :)

Mommy is going to the doctor today for the follow-up in her pregnancy. So mommy and I picked papi up at the office. Mommy is really sleepy as well and wanted papi to leave earlier but papi has a lot of work to do. So she went to 99 Ranch Market at Foster City and it was already 2:30pm.
We arrived promptly at Womens Care Medical Group, Redwood City. I met Dr. Joyce again, well the last time I was still a baby :) We saw the little baby on the screen, it's still really small, about 8 weeks old.
After that, we went to Cheesecake Factory at San Jose. It's mommy and papi's anniversary. On the way there, I slept and it was quite a nap for me, I was really tired. I slept only for a while in the morning. Mommy and papi waited in the car. There is actually another couple who is also waiting in the car. It was not until about 5pm that I woke up from my nap.
We ordered from the bar because there is a special hour from 4-6pm. The food is smaller than usual :) Mommy and papi ordered fried macaroni, calamari, chopped salad, and crispy beef for the entree. I tried all of them, including the bread :)
Happy Anniversary Mommy and Papi.

Mommy told papi that I could climb up the bed by myself. Mommy is surprised because she didn't actually see how I got up. Next thing mommy knew is that I was on the bed typing on the computer... hehehe... I saw the computer and I'm just following what mommy and papi are doing.

Today, we went to the park. It has been a while ever since mommy and I went to the Rivermark park. I met Alexander and Isaiah there. We didn't play much because as usual, I'm busy with my own things.
After that, we met up at Aunt Lenny's place and have lunch. We stayed for a while until papi comes back from work. I was pretty tired by then. Normally when I saw papi got off the train, I would wave at him. But I saw him and closed my eyes. Papi told mommy that I must be really tired :)
When we got home, papi stayed behind and wait until I woke up. Mommy went up first because she's tired as well. I slept quite a while in the car and I smiled at papi when I woke up :)
Papi didn't have a lot of time to play with me because I slept. We played a little bit and it was already time for me to take a bath and go back to sleep.

Ok, today papi didn't have to go to work. Thank God for that. It's pretty tough right now since papi's company is in a tight schedule. So after I took my nap in the afternoon, we went to church.
Actually mommy did not feel really well because of her pregnancy. Papi said she should stay at home, but wondering how papi would take care of me while ministering. In the end, mommy decided to go to church with her condition.
At church, as usual, I asked everyone to carry me :) I also walked around and played. Mommy accompanied me and stayed at the nursery room. I actually joined in the singing and teaching in Sunday school. But I didn't understand so I continue to play with the toys.
We also have holy communion every first sunday of the month. I ate some of the bread and drank lots of the juice :) We went home early as well because mommy wants to rest. It was pretty late as well. By the time we got home, I was already sleeping. Papi already changed my diaper at church so I was laid down on the queen bed and changed to my sleeping pants.

Today, papi had to work in the office. Papi will be working on Saturday this 3 weeks because the company will have a software release and things are behind. I woke up in the middle of the night and papi again accompany me in the queen bed. Mommy join in as well at a later time. Papi didn't know what time it was and tried to move me because papi thought I was in deep sleep. In fact, it was 6am so it was close to wake-up time :) Both mommy and papi are still sleepy and because papi had to work later, mommy actually accompanied me. After a while, papi woke up because mommy needs more rest than papi, due to her pregnancy.
Since I woke up early, papi also put me to sleep early and I didn't sleep until 30 minutes later. So papi informed his manager that he will be coming late. Papi had been working last night and some in the morning. I finally woke up at 10:25am so we all left quickly to San Mateo. Mommy and papi were already prepared while I was sleeping.
When we arrived at the office, papi put me in the mini stroller. Papi's team and his manager were already there and couple of Engineers also came to the office. I got to know everybody as well and I saw with mommy in one of the cubicles. Mommy didn't want papi to be disturbed while papi is working, and also the rest of the people.
Soon it was time for lunch so mommy and I went into the lounge. Papi heated up my food in the microwave and went back to work. Meanwhile, I was with mommy and I didn't finish my lunch, just a few bites. I'm more interested with the new place so I did my adventure.
It was also lunch time and the company provided food for the people who came in to work today. Then mommy told papi that I was able to climbed up the green chair by myself. It was a bit scary when papi saw what I did but I can do it :) Then mommy and I went to Target to buy some items and papi continue working. Papi told mommy that papi will be done around 2pm.
At around 2pm, mommy came back and we went back to papi's office. Mommy bought me some books that were on sale. Then papi's manager wanted to take a break so mommy and I went with papi's manager. Papi's manager liked kids and so she played with me. She even gave me a twirl and papi actually likes doing that to me :) After all those playing, papi finally finished and will continue to work at home.
On the way home, I slept in the car. I guess I'm very tired and sleepy after all those activity at papi's work. I just couldn't stay still. I can't imagine mommy as well because mommy is not in top shape with her pregnancy. We passed by Belmont to look at potential houses but we didn't look inside because it's not open house and moreover, I was still sleeping.
By the time we arrived in Santa Clara and papi parked the car, I woke up. That was a short nap and I know I was still sleepy but it was a little hot and I was sweating. It was quite a long day for me :)
Tonight, papi really wants me to sleep by myself. Unfortunately, I didn't sleep in the crib because mommy was tired and wanted to accompany me. So I end up sleeping in the queen bed and mommy make sure that there are barriers such that I don't roll over and fall. Well, I know God is always protecting us :) Thank you Jesus and I love you Jesus, mommy and papi. Good night everybody and hopefully I don't wake up in the middle of the night.

Since I've learned a new skill, climbing, I tried couple of high places. Mommy told papi that I can climbed up the TV table and diaper trash. Seems that the dining chair is pretty simple to me. Papi didn't see it in person so he's still imagining how I could climbed up so high :)
In the afternoon, while papi is working, mommy tried to call papi. This is because mommy is not feeling well and she wanted to throw up. Mommy wants to distract me by calling papi and have papi talked to me. Unfortunately, papi was in a meeting. So mommy actually hold her nausea.
Mommy has been throwing up lately and it's unpredictable. When mommy was having me in her tummy, at least she would throw up only at night. The only condition is to eat before 6pm. But now, it's all different. Hopefully you are ok mommy and papi kept telling me to behave and be good.

I woke up again in the middle of the night. Hmmm.. don't know why... I just cried and so papi came into the room again. Papi tried to put me back to sleep in my crib but I didn't want to. In the end, papi and I slept on my queen bed.
I didn't wake up until 7am and we had to rush to send papi to the Caltrain station. Papi didn't want to be late again.
=====================
In the afternoon, mommy called and informed papi of what I did. Apparently, I can climbed up the dining chair by myself. And as usual, I played in the kitchen, even when mommy and papi warned me not to play. I climbed up the dishwasher door that was opened. Then I also sit inside the kitchen stove drawer and messed up the kitchen. Well papi haven't seen it yet because we'll be going to the blood lab so that mommy can take her blood for some pregnancy test. We are all waiting in the waiting room and when mommy's name is called we all went in. The nurse then told us that there is a waiting room so papi and I went there. I played with the lego there.
When it was time to go, I didn't want to leave and I actually start hitting papi's face. Papi immediately discipline me because it's not nice to hit people. Especially if I didn't get what I want, I shouldn't be throwing tantrum. Papi and mommy wants me to behave.
We went to Whole Food next because we ran out of milk. There are free samples there so I add chocholate donut and some snacks. I took a bite on an apple slice and gave it back to mommy. After Whole Food, we went to Costco to get some vitamins for mommy. Our last stop is Aunt Lenny, she wants to give us soup.
It was already late, near my sleeping time and papi saw that the house is messy, from the kitchen to the living room. I guess I'm still learning everyday. I should learn how to clean up my toys.

I woke up again in the middle of the night. It has become a habit for me and I don't know why. Even papi and mommy is surprised by this because normally I would sleep through the night all by myself. Papi thought maybe it's because of the stay over at Aunt Prisicillia, during mommy and papi's hawaiin trip? So papi slept with me on my queen bed.
As usual, I woke up at the same time. Unfortunately, papi was taking his time, thinking that it was still early, it was 7:10am. Indeed, when we arrived at the Caltrain station, the train was about to leave. So we end up going to Denny's to have our breakfast. Mommy ordered Heartland Scramble because since mommy is pregnant, she couldn't eat sunny side up eggs. I had some of the pancakes, hash brown, and sausage. After breakfast, we dropped papi at the Caltrain and we went home.
=====================
While at work, mommy told papi that she's not feeling well. So we decided that mommy's blood test would be tomorrow. After picking papi up, we went straight home. Papi fed me first before going swimming. I actually use a float on my body. At first, I didn't know what it is, I was just laughing. It was until I went into the pool that I realized I'm floating :) But it wasn't very stable so papi had to still hold me. I flapped my hands and water splashed all over my face and papi's face :) I was having lots of fun. Papi is still teaching me how to swim and of course I still drank couple of pool water. Papi also tried to dipped me inside so that I learn how to hold my breath. After the second time, I told papi that I didn't want to, with a really long speech as well. I was getting cold as well so papi wrapped me up in the towel and brought me in.
The moment we stepped into our home, I'm beginning not to feel good. Papi actually wanted to give me a bath and so just a few steps into the second bathroom, I threw up!!! Papi apologized to me because he had dipped me into the pool and I just finished eating as well. It's ok papi, I'm ok because I forgot about it and played again in the shower. Papi told me that next time, we'll wait for a while before going swimming.

Today, papi is going back to work. I actually woke up in the morning and papi put me to sleep again in my queen bed. Papi didn't want to disturb mommy because she need her rest, especially during the early stage of pregnancy. I still don't know what it meant and so I keep playing with mommy. I even kept sitting on mommy's tummy. Papi kept telling me not to do that because there is a baby in mommy's tummy.
Anyway, initially, papi wanted to go by himself because mommy is not feeling well. But I didn't want to let papi go alone and so mommy had to send papi to work. As usual, I sit at the back.
At home, as usual, I stayed with mommy. I played actually messed up the living room and the kitchen again. Papi already clean it up last night. Mommy and papi are still teaching me how to clean up after I played. I still do not understand. Then mommy taught me how to do kiss-and-bye. I literally followed mommy, put my hand on my mouth, and make a "muah" and put away my hand :)
After my nap, we picked papi up at the Caltrain station at Santa Clara. Then mommy told papi what I can do. Papi is surprised. Also, I wasn't to uptight with the keys as well, and that I give it back to papi. That's what papi and mommy have been trying to teach me. When we got home, papi told me that he wanted to get the mail. But I didn't let him and grab on his hand and shirt. So papi gave in and sit with me until mommy parked the car.
After my dinner, papi and I went swimming. This time, I will be wearing a floating jacket. Papi put on sunblock first and mommy gave me the swimming trunks that she bought at Kauai. I was having lots of fun swimming by myself. Well, technically, papi is still holding me. I didn't realize that I was floating with the jacket. Occasionally, I would swallowed some water but papi told me that it's ok. Papi then told me to hold me breathe while he count until 3. I was swallowing some water and until the second time, I told papi that I didn't want to anymore. I was also shivering with cold so we wrapped up the swimming.
Not long that papi wanted to give me a shower, I suddenly throw up. Papi apologized to me because I threw up. Maybe it was because that papi pulled my underwater and swallowed some pool water. But it's ok papi, I'm ok. Soon after that, I'm happy again :)

We are going to Carmel today for a family trip because it's Labor Day. It has been a while for just the three of us to go to the beach. The last beach we went is Santa Cruz and that's with the others. Papi wanted to have time together as one family after the hawaiin trip.
We didn't leave until around 10am. That's because mommy and papi wanted me to take a nap before reaching Carmel. Unfortunately, I didn't take my nap until 11am and we are pretty close. So I only took about 30 minutes of nap. Papi just also parked the car. There were a lot of people!!
So we walked to the beach and set up the towel on the sand. I was just woke up and so I was not in the mood. I just wanted to be carried. Mommy and papi were suprised because I wasn't like this when I was at Santa Cruz beach.
Mommy then fed me with bacang (steamed rice dumpling). Mommy already ate while in the car and papi is eating with me. After finishing my lunch, papi changed to my swimming trunks and played near the water, I wasn't interested. The water is actually cold and papi was telling mommy that it was so different than in Kauai. We didn't stay long at the beach and so we went strolling at Carmel downtown. Mommy got one strawberry and banana smoothie and shared with me. I was so excited to get some from mommy :) Instead of saying please, and both mommy and papi keep teaching me how to say please, I was whining and keep wanting for it. Well, I haven't learned how to say please yet.
After that, we headed back to Santa Clara. It was a long day and I slept on the way as well. Mommy slept in the car as well because she's tired. Papi is having a hard time keeping his eyes open because he slept late as well. But thank God, we arrive safely home. I took a shower with papi and played a little before drinking my milk. Good night everybody. I love you mommy and papi, thank you for the wonderful day out.
