Trick or Treat? Treat!

Trick or Treat was officially celebrated in our office last Oct 26. After much deliberation (or fickle-mindedness on my part!), Marvin and I finally decided to bring Polo to the office to join the festivities.

We dressed him up with the angel cum dove costume he wore at the 1st birthday costume party he went to (that was the 1st birthday party of Isabella Escano, first born of Rad & Puchette Escano). His baby attire was composed of a light blue jumpsuit (aka pajamas), a pair of white feathery wings and his white bonnet with glittery silver and baby blue adornments (which I designed myself. Ye!). Much to my surprise, our little boy blue angel bagged the best in costume award given at Marvin's floor.

Here's a picture Polo in his award winning costume. Hehehe...

Must admit that he really looks angelic most of the time (Of course, I'm subjective and biased! I'm his Mama. Hahaha)!

Wonderful Babblings

It started with "Aba aba aba aba..." that later on became "Ba ba ba ba" that morphed into "Pa pa pa pa" when he was jolly and playful and "Ma ma ma ma" whenever he was hungry, needy or crying. Now, it seems that he knows who his Papa and Mama are because he looks at us when he calls for us, depending on his needs.

That's our Polliepoe at 8 months! Whenever he calls out to Marvin during playtime, Marvin's heart cannot but dance with glee. I, on the other hand, cannot refuse the gentle but pitiful tug I feel in my heart whenever he cries out for me when he needs comfort or is just plain hungry.

We initially wanted our little boy to call us Daddy and Mommy. But Papa and Mama seems to be Polo's preference. Good choice, Polo! To me, "Papa" and "Mama" brings life and music to my heart. It even surpasses Mozart's classical masterpieces!

There you go, folks, "Papa" and "Mama" are Polo's 1st words. I'm sooo damn happy that it didn't turn out to be just any other word. :)
