Planning for Peycie's baptism

I am not OC in other things, but when it comes to preparing an event, I want everything organized.  Here are some of the details of our little angel's christening:

Date: January 25, 2015

Church
Our Lady of Fatima Parish - Meralco Village, Lias, Marilao Bulacan
This is where my husband baptized.  We opted to have our little one christened here because the priest who blessed me that I'll conceive soon is the parish priest of this church.  It's just sad that he only does baptism during ordinary day :'(

Venue
St. Joseph House of Serenity - Malhacan, Meycauayan, Bulacan
We decided to have the reception done here since it is near the church and the facility is huge and pleasant.

Caterer
GJ's Catering
They were our caterer in our wedding and I can say that the taste of their food was impressive.  So why not avail their service the second time around? ☺

Photographer
King Ignacio
King is my husband's friend who lives nearby our house.  He did some shots during our wedding in Dec 2013 and I can tell that he was great!
 
Souvenirs
Cherub Clay Accessories
Looking for a souvenir is kinda difficult. I need to scout different blogs, however I didn't see any.  Eager I am to find something cute, I ended up having a polymer clay fridge magnet as giveaways for guests.

iPrints
Since I wanted a personalized souvenir for the sponsors, I got the cute notepads for Ninongs and Ninangs from them.  Cute, personalized and affordable!

Dress
I got her baptismal dress from Landmark while the reception dress is from Periwinkle. :)

Baby Shower Studio Experience

I've been a photo addict since the day I knew about camera. *LOL*  Kidding aside, husband and I decided to have our baby's photo shoot at Baby Shower Studio in Timog for her baptism.  Way back when I was still pregnant, I kept on viewing their work and I can say, it is superb! Sharing some of our baby's shots:

 

 

Baby's skin was dry and forgot to put lotion on her.  Those white thingy on her eyebrows are her dry skin but can't still get over her cuteness, though!


The studio's staff/photographers were accommodating and really great in capturing different baby's expressions.  Thumbs up for their service.  We will definitely go back and have our baby's pictures taken when she turns 6 months. ☺

First Time Mom

I'm sooo addicted to my Baby Peycie and didn't have a chance to blog.  Being a first time mom is not easy.  I thank my mom and mother-in-law in assisting me and teaching me on how to take care of a newborn child.  :)  I enjoy being a hands-on mom, to the point that I don't wanna go back to work!  I personally give her a bath, feed her (I failed in breastfeeding, I breastfed her only for 2 weeks and after that she doesn't want to latch anymore *sad*, I tried to pump however I can only produce less than 2 oz, which did not satisfy her every feed). 

The day comes that I have to get back to work.  This is really a big adjustment.  Peycie started to change her sleeping time on her way to 2nd month.  "Seriously anak, kung kailan na papasok si mommy?"  She usually sleep between 4:00a.m. to 6:00a.m.  and we need to leave the house by 6:30a.m. 

Our daily routine (when I got back to work)

7:00 a.m. - Leave the house
8:30a.m. to 5:30 p.m. - Office
8:00 p.m. - Arrive home
10:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. - Hubby will take care of Peycie, while I will sleep for my 1:00 a.m. shift. *LOL*
1:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. - Hele and crying time for baby.
4:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. - Her sleeping time
6:00 a.m. - Wash and sterilize her bottles, fix ourselves for work

Recently, my dad-in-law wakes up at 3:30 a.m. and if Peycie is still up, he will voluntarily get her from me so I can still sleep.  I can't thank him enough for sacrificing his sleep!

I admit, I miss our lifestyle back then when we were only two, but I couldn't be more happier seeing and having our cute little baby with us!  Yes, it is kinda tiring and exhausting but these are worth it! ☺
