Twick or Tweat

Sebastian was a cute little penguin today. We paraded his cuteness at the mall, where I was surprised to see people (children, adults, even the salesladies and mall janitors) in costume all jampacked in every corner of SM Southmall! October 31 wasn't like this when I left for California 3 years ago.

Why does it have to be scary?
With Auntie "Kwak-Kwak"
We bumped into Tita Monette, Ate CJ and Tito Brandon
And off we went...
....shopping...
...shoe-shopping!
It fits!
A quick pose
Imagine the long line just to get candies (good thing I don't eat those, yet)!
Sweet smile at the salesladies

So into his character, Sebastian pulled out a "Happy Feet" move by bouncing in place:

Here he is making us laugh (at home)... he was standing and he got off-balanced that Auntie Karen screamed... He is also much too cute when he was crawling in his costume:

And here he is laughing at Uncle Ian's goofiness (pardon the uber-messy room):

8th Month

It's cake day once again! I miss my Daddy, but don't worry, Mommy and I will be there with you soon!

================

Notice how he always makes funny faces at the camera. He does this every time (since he was almost 6 months)! I don't know where he got it, but he still does it until now, every chance he gets...

Sebastian's Weekend

October 4-5

Too lazy for words. Let the videos show what Seb has been up to:

Bath time is Sebastian's most favorite activity. Even when he's cranky, giving him a bath instantly lifts his spirits up.

(Video clip removed. Note to Bondi: check our multiply blog instead)

Brusing his teeth: He only has one tooth (lower front) but the one next to that has started to come out as well. He loves letting me brush it, and tries to do it on his own too.

Pulling up to a stand: By the end of Saturday night, he made several attempts in his playpen to master the art of pulling himself up into a stand.

Walking towards Auntie Karen: After church service, he can't wait to practice walking.

That's all folks!

PS: These video clips are dedicated to Bondi who went ahead of us to the Bay Area and has been there for a week now. We miss you!

New Walker

We went to the mall, and lolo and lola ended up buying Sebastian a 3-in-1 walker. I know his pediatrician doesn't recommend putting him in a walker, but all of us here can't seem to keep up with him so it is fairly easy to put him in there and let him walk around, as long as we keep a watchful eye on him. Besides, I don't think he's gonna be behind as far as his development on "walking" is concerned. He can cruise around the house from time to time (not long enough, but he does). This certain walker can be transformed into a rocker or a feeding chair. Here is a video clip of him trying it out in Shopwise (Alabang) as the salesman assemble the new stock for us.

As the day ended, here is another clip of him hanging on to lola (Momsky) during his nightly routine of spending time in their bedroom. He can actually crawl now, but for some reason in this video clip he keeps on banging his head on the bed each step. And once he reached grandma, he is just too happy to use her so he can stand.
