Footprints

This layout is very special to me. Why? Because it is the very first layout that I made for Baby Ike. It is a no picture layout. It was the last layout that I made for the Scrappin Moms Idol Challenge. The layout features the footprints of my son and also the name card that was on his crib. Inserted in the pocket is a miniture copy of his birth certificate. Someday my son will look at this layout and say wow mom my foot was so tiny.LOL!

Thanks!

Today I got eliminated from the scrappin moms idol challenge. It was a wonderful experience for me. I was surely challenged everyweek, but never felt pressured by it. I felt really good everytime I finished a challenge except for this last challenge. The challenge that got me eliminated. It was only this week that I felt the pressure. First I cannot decide on what item to use. (I was choosing between a Magic card that my husband gave me and the foot prints of my baby) 
Second, I was already feeling guilty that the challenge was already 
taking too much time from my baby.
Nevertheless I am still grateful that I got this far. To the scrappin moms thank you very much. And to the rest of the LB Scrapaholics who are still on the go... God bless to you. Remember our motto "All for one and one for all" meaning "Ang laban ng isa ay laban ng lahat, ang premiyo ng isa ay premiyo ng lahat." Laging hating magkapatid at walang lamangan. 
Kaya dapat isa sa inyo ay manalo ha! (pressure) hehehehe.

P.S. Sayang nga lang ung discount sa scrapfest tickets. hehehehehe.

Meeting Baby Ike

The first time I held Baby Ike in my arms I got teary eyed. So this is how it feels. Ever since I was a teener I dreamed of this day. I felt that I will not be complete if I will not become a mother. I already imagined that I will cry the moment I see my baby. The dream came true last August 18, 2007, the birthday of our baby.

He has arrived!

Welcome to the world Gilfred Pacifico Payawal Vergara!

I gave birth, through normal delivery, to our precious Baby Ike last August 18, 2007 at 3:25 a.m. He was only 5 pounds.

He is so cute!

MME Scrapbukan Challenge

Wow! I
never
expected this! I won 3rd place in third place in the 
Scrapbukan MME challenge. I am so surprised! 
This is the first time 
I have ever won an online challenge.  
So this is how it feels. 

In the Womb

Six weeks to go before I give birth to my first child. Gee and I decided to name our baby Gilfred Pacifico, Baby Ike for short. Gilfred came from Gee's full name which is Gilfred Paul and Pacifico from my late father Pacifico C. Payawal. We decided to adopt my father's name because we learned that I was pregnant a month after my father died.

I have just finished my layout for Lasting Impressions' Scenic Route challenge. I used a 3D picture of Baby Ike. Isn't he cute?

My Son!

It's been 5 months since I last posted a blog. Well I've been busy creating my pregnancy album, not to mention making other LO's for some contests.

My tummy is already BIG! I can already feel our baby squirming inside of me. (And boy our baby can really move!)

Last June 11, I had a 3D ultrasound. We have confirmed the our baby is really a boy.
