6 months

The summer is coming to an end.
We have enjoyed so many adventures together- the pool, neighborhood walks, the aquarium, the list goes on a on.
You are happiest when you are outside hearing noises and watching new things.
Now you can sit-up and are as tall as the giraffe in your playmate. You have officially outgrown this gym.
More chompers are coming in! 
Mommy & Daddy continue to work hard during the day. Thank goodness for technology so we can FaceTime and see you during the day.
Little Philip you are so handsome, mommy can't stand it.
You are constantly smiling and rarely shed a tear.
Everyday this month you helped Lola pic vegetables from her garden.
Look at your harvest!
You have been drooling and a dad fussy since your new teeth are coming in.
Your hair continues to grow and lighten up. You have a few curls on the tippy top of your head, those most come from your Dad because mommy has very straight hair.
You can't crawl yet but get your energy out jumping all day long.
Who doesn't love a baby in a diaper. 
Oh summer days we will miss you!
Lola took you to the doctor this month.
You and your Lolo have a special bond. We love it when you both smile!
Walking around on the sunporch getting your legs moving.
And this little fury baby watches you grow, protects you and loves you to pieces.
Slow down time.
Happy 6 months Philip!

Mama Toti

Yay!!! Mama Toti has arrived!
and with gifts!
She bought you a First President hat and t-shirt along with a cool Air Force One plush toy plane. 
Dream Big Little One!
You can become whatever it is that you want to be.  
How lucky are we that our best family friend came to visit us.
Mama Toti, Lola, Mom and Philip went downtown to check out the Atlanta Aquarium.
We watched all the little fishes swim 
with the BIG fish
Of course we took some time to play
and eat
We gathered ourselves together and walked around for a few more hours.
I am not sure if you tell what you were looking at but you seemed to enjoy yourself.
It was a great experience for everyone!
You loved watching the penguins swim around in the water.
A long day but totally worth it
Thankful for our Mama Toti
We had a great time laughing and making new memories.
Come visit us again!

Philip's Baptism

Our little prince was baptized today in the Adoration Chapel at Saint Brigid Catholic Church in Johns Creek.
It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon celebrating our blessing.
Philip wore the 3-layer gown that I was baptized in 33 years ago.
He did such a wonderful job during the ceremony and didn't shed a tear when the holy water was poured on his head.
Proud parents of the newest Christian.
Sweet smiles when we are together.
Thankful for everyone that was there to witness our Pangga be baptized. 
We love our Mama Tita who travelled from DC to visit us.
These little cousins are all growing up way too fast. 
 Lola is happy as can be watching her little girl with her own baby.
Trying to preserve all the memories of our baby boy growing up.
Yummy treats from Lola, TeeTah and Chooch. Great job on the P cookies!
 TeeTah with her 6th grandchild!
For this child I have prayed
and the Lord has granted
me what I asked of him.
