Relief

Sander — Tue, 23 Aug 2011 15:41:35 +0000

After a tiring day, there is nothing that takes away stress and fatigue as quickly as seeing my cute sons. They truly are my relief. Kuya Zyke will give me a hug while Zack will provide cute entertainment. I am so blessed to have these two loving and lovable beings in my life. My prayer is that I will continually be used by God to be a good father to them.

Fun time with Kuya

While mom attended a seminar last weekend, I made sure to take that time for a Father and Son moment with my first born. And so went to the mall and went to wherever my son would want to go. First we went to check out the toy cars – which has been his passion since he learned to play – and then we went to the nearest arcade. We enjoyed a few games and Kuya Z was laughing all through out. His new favorite is a Truck driving simulator, complete with a big steering wheel and awesome sound effects. I know that to my son, he is driving a real truck! It was definitely worth missing sleep to make sure that my son enjoyed himself. After playing, we then went straight to the seminar venue, just a few minutes earlier than expected. Hope to have more fun time with Kuya and ofcourse with bunso.

Bubbles

Trying my hand at photography and what’s the best subject but my son, Z. Good thing he was very cooperative and enjoyed blowing his bubbles. It took a lot of trials before finally getting this shot. Now, I’m thinking of buying our own DSLR so I can practice some more. The fact that it’s an expensive hobby is holding me back though.

Z’s first Field Trip

Sander — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 06:40:02 +0000

Tomorrow we will be having Z’s first ever field trip in school. I will be the one to accompany him on the bus. This will be exciting and nostalgic. I can relive my memories and I can also be a part of my son’s first ever field trip experience. Now I just hope I considered other weight loss options like hgh so I would look better during the swimming portion… hehe. Looking forward to tomorrow!

A Special Gift for my Son

Sander — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 05:17:33 +0000

My son is a definite car fanatic. That’s why I always indulge him on his whim to buy the latest toy cars. Last March, I gave him his most expensive toy ever. His Peg perego ride-on and remote control car in one. I admit I was having second thoughts buying it for him because of its size but one look at my son’s excited eyes and I couldn’t say no. The fact that it was an Audi car which is just his favorite car brand in the whole world didn’t help. So now this toy is sitting here in our home. I don’t regret buying it at all because even after a few months have passed he’s still using it. He even takes care of it and treats it like a real car.

Z – the Brave one

Sander — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 06:44:12 +0000

Recently Z has proven to me how he is one brave boy. I grew up with very minimal trips to the dentist, my family would rather use the thread and door technique to save money instead of having a Dentist remove a tooth. My son has it different though, his mom is very adamant in taking him to the dentist every time she remembers to do it. Since we have a medical plan like Blue Cross NC, we are entitled to teeth cleaning and other dental procedures. And so Z had another trip to the dentist, only this time the Dentist did a lot of “unimaginably horrible things” like injecting on the gum and removing Z’s old broken teeth. It was done quickly and my brave little mini-me did the best to stay calm and not cry. I am not so sure if I could have been that brave myself so I applaud him.

Naruto – Rasengan Happy Meal

Sander — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 05:57:02 +0000

My son and myself are big fans of Naruto. We watch the English subbed anime every week, and I always read the weekly manga. So when I heard that there was a Naruto happy meal toy being sold at McDonald food chain, we hurriedly got one without any hesitation. I wanted a funny Chouji, the one who used the best weight loss pill that gave him powers, just to tease Z. But of course my son picked the Rasengan toy. Look how happy he was when he got it:

Kuya Z

Sander — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 11:26:53 +0000

In anticipation of our coming baby, we have been carefully preparing our soon to be Kuya, Z. Preparing him for the coming baby is just as important as mom J taking her prenatal vitamins. At first Z feels that we are just joking, but lately he is beginning to understand and is getting as excited as we are about the prospect of having a younger baby sibling. My wife’s belly does not show much yet but it is getting bigger and Z is taking note of it. We can’t wait to see how Z will take care of his little sibling – I am sure they will get along just fine.

Z’s appetite

Sander — Mon, 10 May 2010 04:45:28 +0000

The hardest part of rearing Z is having him eat enough quantity and quality food. It’s like he is using appetite suppressants">appetite suppressants – if he was overweight it would be welcome but currently he needs to eat more. Both my wife and myself were also thin when we were young so the way Z is turning out is expected. But we want Z to at least have some more meat under his skin. We just had a check up with a pediatrician, and she said that Z was thin – but he is not yet under weight. Although she did urge us to watch what Z is eating. Z has to avoid his favorite junk food, cookies and powdered juices. Instead he needs to eat bread and have enough vegetables. The pediatrician mentioned that Multivatimins does not help with gaining weight – it only helps provide nutrients that Z is not getting in his current diet. So for her – the best solution is to have a good pattern and discipline when it comes to eating. Even though this is going to entail hard effort and patience – we are commited to see this through so that Z will be just a bit fatter than his parents.

Z’s Vacation Bible School 2010

Sander — Sat, 08 May 2010 01:17:54 +0000

Zyke finished his Vacation Bible School today. He got the “Most Attentive” award -which came as a very welcome surprise to us. I want nothing less than for my son to grow in the knowledge and love of God. Quoting and modernizing Joshua 24:15 – But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served before, or the gods of the current world where people only answer to themselves… “But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.”
