The Rolling Baby

 There are tons of excitements being a first time mom. Just as when your little one started to respond to you, you begin to imagine how she laughs, when she’s sitting down and of course to ROLL.

And there you go, as a new mom you can’t wait to see that little monkey rolling over like a pro.

Here are some images that's gonna make you LOVE your rolling baby:

Stage 1

Her first roll. You feel so accomplished that your little babe started to roll over. And yes you are proud.

Stage 2

That little person right there is beginning to enjoy rolling like she never gets dizzy. You find it so cute and adorable that you just want to eat your own baby. *You know I'm kidding right? You don't want to be a cannibal do you?

Stage 3

The love of your life is now officially a Pro Rolling Baby that feeding time became a headache.

Stage 4

...and then you learned a new skill. "Changing diapers BACKWARDS".

Stage 5

At her age she can sleep LONGER periods of time and even over night. You then took advantage of it and slept through the night. Just as when you're having a very good dream, you noticed that she is MISSING only to find out that she's under your feet. 

Stage 6

She thought that your bed is the safest thing in the world. You were just picking something up not far from the bed then turning back, she's already on the edge. Your heart could almost escape from your chest and run towards that little wiggly worm. *That's why never ever ever ever leave your baby on the bed alone.

A rolling baby is cute right?

Be happy young mother, it’s a milestone.

Me Vs FHM

*This is an old post from my Multiply years ago. Just wanted to share it again. :)

This may sound a bit silly or i guess pretty unbelievable, but let me just share what this guy made me experience. ha ha!

ps. please have the patience to read this to the end.


I was just sitting and having a drink with my friends at Metrowalk, I heard my name being called from such distance. Confused as I may seem, but these people who were just sitting around me were the only ones I know in that place. My head kept moving left and right as my eyes observed such faces or probably familiar people that I must've known.
Unfortunately, I saw no one but strangers. 


As I continue my drink, I heard my name again, but this time I heard it just right at my back. Just before the guy actually tap me from my back, I already saw him.
I don't even know this guy! How on earth did he know me? "It's me Alex, remember?"
Who's alex? I really don't have any idea where, when and how did we meet.
"Alex Paita. Sa Friendster. Now, narecognize mo na?"
Oh yeah. Oo nga. That's him. It's Alex, the one who gives me comments and profile views every now and then. Wow, he did recognize me from such a distance. He has great sense of recognizing people and a very strong memory.
He said he's really glad he finally met me, and that he was trying his very best to contact me.
My friends were startled because a guy from Friendster just came through the wilderness and intervened our barkada bonding moments.
My friends continued their conversations as this Alex kept on talking to me.
"You weren't replying to any of my messages, and hindi talaga ako makapaniwala na ma-memeet kita sa lugar na ganito." 


This guy's been asking for my number ever since he added me in Friendster. Well, I don't really give personal contact numbers to people whom I really don't know. Unless he's connected to someone I know, or if he's a business contact like he's also in a band or stuff like that.


He grabbed his wallet from his back pocket and he seemed to be looking for something inside it.
I began to think, what is he doing? Is he going to treat me for another drink?
No. He gave me a card. A calling card.
It says:
Alex C. Paita
Associate Features Editor......... FHM?
Wait... what?! Let me read it again...
Alex C. Paita
Associate Features Editor
......... FHM?
it really is FHM!
"...teka teka teka, totoo to?" I asked Alex.
"Of course! Do you think mangagancho ako para mang gaya ng pangalan?" he laughs.
Wow! I have a friend in Friendster who's an Associate Features Editor... in FHM! I never have imagined this Friendster guy who kept on messaging and commenting me on Friendser is a big-timer! Geez, my head's gonna explode anytime I tell you!


"I couldn't just tell you directly in Friendster since you wouldn't really believe me if I have told you."


"I really wanted to feature you in one of our pages. It may not be a big feature, but your personality would make the contents of our magazine shine. So I've been patiently asking for your contact number."


(Goodness.. I never thought that these are his intentions. I thought he's just any other pervert.)


"You have a strong personality, and you're in a band, so it makes a different feature from the others."


Okay, so Alex wants me to feature in their magazine. It's a big WHOA! I'm so flattered and all proud that he recognized me. Hello?! It's FHM! 
How can I be one of those sexy models anyway? I started to imagine myself posing, and it made me realize one thing. I have to wear SEXY outfits! LINGERIE?! NO WAY!!
First of all I'm not that sexy. LOL!
Look at those teenyweeny front!
I don't even have a huge back!
I'm petite and I look very young at my age.
It's like: "What is this kid doing here in FHM?"
It could be any man's reaction after seeing my photos!


"Don't worry, hindi ka magbibikini." he laughed again.
Phew! Thank goodness! I thought I'd be wearing those bikinis just like we usually see in FHM.
"That's why we're going to make you different. We'll make you sexy in some way that'll fit your personality. Ok na sayo yon? Alam kong kinabahan ka eh. ha ha! So,  game na tayo dito?"
Well, Im not going to wear those sexy bikinis, so...
Im on it! Wow.. If you just know how I felt. It really is flattering!
When my friends knew that I'll be featuring in FHM, they were all stunned. Ha ha ha! I could still remember their faces!


So, Alex started interviewing me on such things. He said he always bring his recorder in case something like this happens suddenly. He had to ask me some questions before the shoot, then ask me again after.
So the interview went something like this:


You've been a musician since 8, you even compose songs at that very young age. What made you do all those?
-I don't know, i feel like I'm born to be like this. Haha!
Mom told me once that when I was little, I couldn't stop singing inside the car or the school service. Well, i don't remember that. haha!


I've heard your songs, mostly it talks about love. Who's your inspiration then?
-I guess.. my exes.


So have you finally found your someone?
-Oh, I wish I did!


Does that mean you already have a boyfriend?
-None yet. I'm still waiting. I'm still single, but I don't actually mingle. Haha!


What kind of girlfriend are you?
-I'm also his tropa. It's like, I'm his girl plus his friend.
I'm a very sweet girlfriend and I always want to surprise him on some things. It's too many to tell, sumama na lang sila saken para malaman nila. Haha!


You're on solo and you also have a band, is it okay with them that you're doing solo projects?
-Yes. Actually I'm already having my solo project before they invited me to the band.


So it is you who makes your band's songs?
-Mostly yes. I do the rhythm and lyrics. It's up to the others to do their parts. I'll just have to explain them how I imagine the song to be like.


You are the only girl in the band, is having a relationship with one of your bandmates possible?
-Actually we're 2 now. We have a new girl bassist. But about the relationship? No way!
Macho ako pag magkakasama kami. I'm one the guys.


You're one of the guys, so you're also used to guy talks?
-Yes. I'm very much used to it! I don't really care. They've been talking as if I'm also a guy. Well, actually it helps me understand guys more, so it's just okay.


If you're used to it, would you be answering some sex questions for us?
-I'm not so sure about that.. mom will kill me! Haha!




Interview's over. The schedule of my photoshoot will be on Tuesday nextweek.
I'm getting all exited about it!


Home at last. The events that happened kept on rewinding and rewinding all over my head.
I'm getting all the relaxation I need and having thoughts of doing some beauty routines.
But as I open my eyes, I started to be disappointed.
I didn't go to Metrowalk with my friends today.
I didn't recieve any card with an Alex C. Paita on it.
I realized that I was just...
%&**($#@#&~!!!
...dreaming!
Sayang! Bat panaginip lang lahat ng yon!
The feeling was good, but knowing that it was all just a dream, is a disaster. A fatal crash.
But trying to think of it, how on earth will be one of those FHM models diba? Nakakaloko lang. wahahaha!
If my bandmates knew this one, babatukan lang nila ako lahat and I'll be the laughing center of the group. Haha!
Well it's just a dream, it'll never happen anyway.
Never in my entire life did I try to fantasize about posing in such a big time magazine-fhm. LOL! lalo na mag pose ng ganun? the hell. haha! anu makikita nila saken? wahahaha!
I guess my dreams just know how to play off.

*I'd like to repeat that this happened years ago and was posted in my other blog. I just posted it again here because I was reading my old blog then I saw this, I was amused.
Anyhow, after I posted this on Multiply, something magically happened and it was almost a dream come true. It was like THIIIIIIS CLOSE. I'll just keep it to myself because the person involved doesn't want me to spill it. Heehee
