Our Christmas 2008

We have planned to hear our Christmas midnight mass in Pandacan. But when we got there there were no more good parking and it was raining. I didn't want to get Neo out in the rain so we decided hear mass in Cavite the next day, Christmas day. We then proceed to Mama and Papa's house where we spent a few hours of Christmas eve, playing with the dog, chatting and eating pizza!


At 7:15 AM, Christmas day, we picked Ruthie up from work and on we went to Cavite. We catched the 9AM schedule at St. Peter's. The little boy has been so giggly during the mass with Tata Ruthie carrying him. And it was so funny when during the "Ama Namin" prayer song, a lady beside us extended her hand just like we all do when we sing the prayer, Neo, thinking that it was a play, gestured his saw-saw suka skills! Nakakahiya man during the mass but I can't help laughing at this.

An here is our only Christmas picture together. Ruthie can not maneuver Val's camera well so we have to make do with this one shot. Tada! All smiles si Mommy and Papa, si Neo busy sa kisame ng simbahan.

On arriving home, we called some carollers in front of our house. In our hometown, we call this mascot "bangenge". Made of cardboard or big boxes, bangenges come in different characters, sizes and colors and they would accompany the carolers with their dancing. Neo was amused with this one. I'm just not sure what character it is.

When we went inside the house, there was a table full of gifts for the little boy. He can't still understand the meaning of all this boxes and what interested him was this pack of cookies from the Mommy's bunch.

Oh look! He learned to sip from a straw today!



The rest of Christmas day was spent sleeping.
