The (mis)Adventures of Tintin

And just like that, summer has gone by. I wasn't even able to enjoy it since I am indoors most of the time. HAHA. But then again, I have to keep in mind that I have to adult. I think that is the hardest part. Still happy though, that I have been blessed with a lot for the past month. It's already been a week since the month of June has started and there is seriously nothing different going on. I wake up from a bad night's sleep (because I haven't adjusted well to Caeleb's sleeping pattern yet) and try to catch up on sleep in the morning, eat brunch, bathe Caeleb, watch the afternoon cliche of telenovelas, take an afternoon nap, take a bath in the early evening, have dinner with the hubby, then go to sleep again. And the cycle goes on. Its already a routine. Too bad, I HATE ROUTINE. So yeah, kinda feeling depressed, or whatever you call it. I'm trying to keep myself busy by looking for stuff to shop for online in Lazada, Shopee, Zalora and Sephora, and end up...

This, by far, has been the most challenging, yet the most fun birth month for me. To start off, I was given a big new project with never ending issues in it, and a lot more complications each time an installation was done. Just happy that I was able to survive all the stress and the sh*t that was going on during the course of project deployment. And also soooo happy that I was able to 'finish'' it before going on Maternity Leave. Then, too blessed to see Bruno Mars in the flesh! My mom was actually telling me to give the tickets up and just sell it because I was due to give birth this month. I talked to Caeleb, told him not to come out yet until Mommy and Daddy have watched Bruno Mars' concert, and he complied. HAHAHA. Lo and behold, I was 38 weeks pregnant and screaming my lungs out as Bruno Mars sang 24k Magic and Versace On The Floor at the Mall of Asia Arena last May 4. Indeed, Caeleb was a good boy. He did not cause Mommy too much pain. On the 10th of May, I wa...

And we're back. More sleepless nights for me. Still adjusting. Though I do not know anymore how to adjust. Been asleep for 6 straight hours this morning and I think that is the best 6-hour sleep I've had in a while. It's been almost 3 weeks since Caeleb went home from the hospital but still, we cannot get a hold of his sleeping pattern. Its like it changes every night. Some nights he just wakes up twice, but most nights, he's up every hour and its driving me nuts. But yeah. I think that's part of the process. 😂😂😂 A lot of things have been going in my mind lately. A lot of stuff to make big decisions about. It's really mind boggling. Sometimes it creeps me out. I don't know. I really don't know anymore.

Alright. There. New blog. New post. This is me trying to get a hold of my life. Hahaha. 😂 This is me trying to keep me sane. It's been 2 weeks since I gave birth to my baby boy, Dylan Caeleb, and I am not allowed to go out because, yeah. C-Section. So here I am, trying to keep my sanity by trying to do something. 😂 Since I am a first time mom, I am really struggling with a lot of things. Like taking care of the baby, breastfeeding, keeping myself sane even if I lack sleep every night because Dylan is on a night shift. Well, I'm actually struggling more on breastfeeding right now. It is really my goal to breastfeed, because as they say, breastmilk is still the best for babies. But my supply doesn't seem to be enough for my baby (since he is already consuming 4oz at 2 weeks old) and since he was formula-fed when I gave birth to him. I was too exhausted to feed that night so yeah. But hopefully I'll be able to win this over. Turned 30 2 days ago and still trying to f...
