Happy 2nd Bday Iya!

Two years ago today, at 9.47pm, I gave birth to our firstborn. Labsie and I were not ready to become parents but our baby girl charmed us totally that we promised to only give her the best. Even if it meant sacrificing some of our personal needs. Yes, the adage is true- having kids WILL change your life ;-)

To our beloved Iya Elycia, now a loving big sister, our warmest birthday wishes! Mommy and Daddy may scold you sometimes but it is for your own good. We only want that you grow up to be a beautiful person, inside and out :-) Mommy and Daddy love you so much Iya! You are one of the most precious gifts that the Lord gave us.. Happy second birthday to you!Ü

Ema Isabel is here! :)

After 4 nights of false labor contractions, I finally went into true labor last March 4 and gave birth to our second baby at 10:02pm via normal delivery :-) Ema Isabel weighed 2.7kg and measured 47cm in length, just a bit heavier than her Ate Iya who was very happy to finally see her.Ü

It's been 36hrs since Ema came to us, and though it's been very hectic having a newborn AND a toddler in a hospital room, Labsie and I are coping quite well. Iya is very attached to us and refused to go home with my parents, and so we're stuck with 2 babies. Oh well, what won't kill us will just make us stronger, right? Hehe!Ü
