I'm having a little problem with Paolyne. She's becoming a whiner!! She cries a lot and becoming temperamental. Hindi sya marunong mag tantrums before, pero she's showing a different attitude recently.
She kicks and screams and slaps and becoming totally deranged when pulling a tuntrum.
Natututo pang mamalo and mangalmot pag umiiyak. Alam ko, nakikita nya marahil sa ibang bata sa school. Pero ewan ko ba. She's becoming more clingy to Jovel. She doesn't like to walk pag lumalabas kami. She cries on every bitty matter. And she always do this at morning going to school!
If I only have a choice. I would, of course, rather see her sleeping till 9am. I would rather see her playing safely inside the house. Enjoying her favorite Winnie the Pooh while having crackers or drink juices while playing with her "kalbo' doll.
But our situation is different now. And I don't have any one to assist me aside of Jovel. We are fully hands-on with Pao and the house chores now. It is, of course, after the long 10 hours at work.
It is not easy to be parents. And I know it is this hard, as same as our parents been through raising us up. (I had an early taste of it when they let me responsible for my youngest brother, which I am 10 years older)
We hardly find time for each other (me and jovel) as I'd rather get a snooze than to sit down and watch movies with him. He have to do the dishes while I work with our kid. I have to do some other responsibilities out of the house and come home with both of them silently tucked in under the sheets.
It is hard to be parents.
Here we are, tho struggling, (after I cried and he smashed his cellphone due to uncontrollable emotion), hoping and praying for a silent-yet-happy-and-relaxing day.
It is hard to be parents. But, much hopeful, that LOVE could find a way and God could lead us there. Where, as parents, we could see that line and cross it and bear the consequences and struggles and win the battle over a kid who does not want to go to school.
It is hard. It is excruciating. It is bloody.
We are positive tho and pray we could win this over inspite of it...

Paolyne @ 2.4

Matagal tagal na rin ang huling update. Ano na ba ang mga pangyayari... well.

1) Pumapasok na sa Nursery ang prinsesa ko.


[Pao enjoys playing on their little outdoor swings and playhouse. Kahit tagaktak na ang pawis. It's summer and hitting 38-40 degs daily.]

2. Simula na ng araw -araw na pag gising ng 6 am. Whaaa! Oo nga, nanay na talaga ako. Kung gaano kahirap gisingin ang tatay, mas mahirap pala gisingin ang anak. Pero syempre kung masarap gisingin ang tatay [sa pamamagitan ng halik], mas masarap pupugin ng morning kisses at maraming early hugs si Pao!

3. She enjoys hanging around with friends.

[Pao and Kitten @ Heriley's 3rd Bday celebration. Feeling mag kumare ang dalawa]

4. Two days ago dinala namin si Pao sa pedia due to constipation. The lab findings shows na meron syang indigestion of [carrots and peas] which I am sure na hindi nya sa bahay nakain. (never pa akong naglagay ng peas sa aking mga luto). So ang conclusion ko is, nakikikain sa baon ng may baon ang prinsesa ko!!!

Pero not to worry, kahit halos sumuka at poop sya ng 3x a day, sabi ng doctor wala namang problema.


Ang problema ay ito: Obese ang level ni Pao! Pag tinignan mo sya physically, mukha lang chubby. Pero sabi ni Doc, she's 5kgs over than "above normal"weight ng isang 2 years old.

Fully satisfied ako sa bagong pedia ni Pao, she spent 45 mins asking me questions, checking Pao's development, making all the records and graphs about her growth, explaining the things na hindi namin maintindihan (tulad ng pagsasalita ni Pao ng alien words heehhe) at kung ano ang status ng prinsesa ko ngayon.

At yun na nga. The graph used was based on an average American child. Meaning sabi nga nya, ay of course, expected na mas matangkad at mas lamang sa isang average 'asian'. The graph shows 5 lines [yung around 10 kids are...blah...20 kids are blahhh. 50 kids are blahhhhh] survey.

Dapat nasa 10-12 kgs lang si Pao as average weight, maximum na ang 14 kgs na nasa category na heavy weight na. Pero pumalo sa 17.5kgs ang timbang ni luka!

Sabi ni Doc, love is not just by giving your child everything...but taking care of her properly! Napangaralan pa ako.
Need not to worry naman daw. No need to diet her. Pero tigil na ang vitamins at less rice and milk. Ano bang magagawa ko kung tumutunga ng 3 bottles si Pao ng gatas bago matulog. Kung kumakain sya ng lunch gaya ng isang adult (rice I mean) at lumalaklak ng chocolait everyday.
Akala ko, napapabayaan ko ang pagkain ni Pao. I make sure she eats rice at lunch, 2 serving of fruits daily (apple and banana) at isang treat sa afternoon (all-natural chips or chocolate), yun lang ang alam ko aside of 6 bottles of milk, mahina na nga yun.
Hindi ko na kse napapansin yung "side dish" nya pag nangangapit-bahay.
Haay. Parenting. Mahirap pala. Pero masaya ako na kahit papaano napatunayan ko, hindi ko napapabayaan si Pao,..napabayaan ko sa kusina!
Kaya pala masakit na balakang ko pag binubuhat ko sya!
