My friend Wendy and Billy are so excited to see the baby, we thought that I have a normal delivery so I wanted my best friend to be there, but when the doctor said for C section, my friend couldn't go to the operating room. Anyway here are some of the photo.

Before i give birth

Mark with kylie at 10:25 pm

I'm so excited to give birth but at the same time, I'm scared about the pain of giving birth. I think because in the Philippines I saw a lot of women shouting during their labor. But in the states is very different because they have Epidural that will make you relax. All you have to do is to push when the doctor told you to push. I thank God that I give birth here, and the doctor is super nice, they have the best nurses who will take care of you 24 hours. I never expect for C-section, that time, I labor for 13 hours but no progress since they gave me the epidural, the doctor was so worried something will happen to me. Everything is very slow, so the doctor asked my husband for C-section. My husband, my mother in law and my brother in law with his wife were there and my best friend, they are very supportive to me. I'm so blessed and feel loved.

The operations take 30 to 45 minutes then I heard kylie's first cry :). During the operations I was shaking because of the medicine, my husband was so worried about me. He's trying to smile and encourage me, he always say that he's very proud of me and that I'm very brave. So I give birth to Kylie on 4th of november at 10:15 pm. Indeed God is faithful! He gave us a baby girl, 6'15 pounds, 19 and 1/2 inches. We are so blessed to have her in our life, Kylie Elizabeth is such a big blessing to us!

I'm back!

2009-11-02T13:16:00.000-08:00

I thank God that after 6 months of our marriage, I was conceive. But I prayed to God almost everyday that He will give us a child and now I'm waiting for days to give birth. Indeed God is faithful. Last september 18 we celebrated our 1st year Anniversary at Utah. 2 days ago I turned 33 and the next day it was my mother's birthday. Wow! days are so fast. We are looking forward to celebrate thanksgiving with our baby Kylie Elizabeth. I thank God for all the blessings that we receive this year!

My husband is a big blessing to me,I never regret that I got married at the age of 31 because God gave me the right person.

God is full of surprises :)!

To all my followers, thank you so much for your patients for me :)... It's hard for me to update my blog because we're so busy preparing our Church wedding, starting January this year.

I thank God for the safe travelling of all our friends from different states who join our Church Wedding and His presence during the ceremony,receptions. Indeed God is Amazing when you are going to lay down everything to Him. He is faithful!

watery wednesday

2009-03-03T12:09:00.000-08:00

These photos were taken in Myrtle Beach. When I was a kid I remember that my Father would go hunting together with his friends. He loved hunting, and wild duck and other birds were everywhere on the farm. I loved seeing my father carry a duck because it meant he was going to cook our favorite dish called patutin. Cooked in Sprite with pineapple juice and some herbs, the whole sauce absorbs into meat and is very good for baked rice cake.

mellow Yellow Monday

2009-03-02T13:00:00.001-08:00

I really like this. I do not know if this is considered a sculpture or not. When I went to Norway I went to the National Park. It was such a huge place and sculptures are everywhere in the park. I went to the Vikings' museums, art museums, and the tourist spots where you can see their lifestyle from centuries ago. I took lots of photos but unfortunately I lost all of them because I did not know how to use my first digital camera. I was so disappointed but hopefully I will revisit Norway someday with my hubby. Join us for Mellow yellow monday every monday, just visit the site and post your photo.

My leaders and church in the Philippines

2009-02-28T08:21:00.000-08:00

Last week I was so down and couldn't understand why. Yesterday, I remembered my mentor in the Philippines so I called her. I felt so relieved after we had talked. She encouraged me and asked about my devotional life. She was my Sunday school teacher and taught me about intercession when I was 13 years old. I'm so blessed to have leaders like her. I can share what's inside me and cry when I need. They will just listen and encourage me, reminding me about God's word. These are pictures of my leaders in the Philippines (and of my church). I am so proud to have them as a part of my life. From the bottom Raya, Joey, Pastor Many, My father, Mr. and Mrs Querubin, Mommy Bing and ate Andrea. I forgot to take some of the photos of my Leaders, now I miss them so much.
