Join us in welcoming our daughter Cara Callia Orendain. Born last March 14, 2005, she came into this world at 6.6 lbs - healthy and beaming with joy. This is her blog, written by her parents with her thoughts in mind. She has been a source of their renewed creativity, and hopefully she will someday enjoy reading these to herself.

On All Fours

I have always loved crawling on all fours. Now, I don't know if Buddy (tita Nina's golden retriever) enjoys it too, but I find it so enjoyable! Here in this picture I am beside Buddy, pausing after some crawling around Lola Betty's house.

Every sunday, or as often as we can. Mom, dad and I go to Malakas to spend some time with Lola Betty, Ninong Martin and Tita Nina. Right now, Kuya Jay is also staying there and I really love going there for all the crawling space.

Our house has limited crawling space, especially since I only shuttle between our room and my playroom. Next time I visit Lola Betty, I will surely ask Buddy if he loves crawling around.

High Fidelity

Tito Fidel, my daddy's younger brother who lives in Cebu was in town last week. We picked him up from Makati before we headed to Malakas for our usual Sunday lunch with Lola.

I am not usually nice to strangers, so I don't know what came over me that made me easily warm up to Tito Fidel.

I think it's because he treated everyone to special Halo-halo. With a tall glass of halo-halo topped with yummy Ube ice-cream and a big bag of Holy Kettle pop-corn, he suddenly looked irresistable.

Here I am cozying up to him as he feeds me halo-halo and my favorite pop-corn. On second thought, I guess I really warmed up to Tito Fidel because I know that, being my dad's brother, he's someone I can charm any time.
