Through Ninang's Eyes

When Daddy and Mommy went to a wedding, Bug hung out with Ninang and Ninong ALL DAY.  THIS is what happened.  (Thank you to Ninang for capturing it all for Mommy!  You know how much she hates to miss out on the photos!)

Before we left, Ninang caught Bug watching House Hunters on HGTV.  (Obviously she's ready to get out of our house already!  WAAAAAH!)
 In perspective, she's actually quite tiny.  You'd never guess with all the close-ups I take.
 Snacking and watching TV.
 Spitting. What an awful habit.  If you see her, don't stand too close.  You'll get hit.  I promise.
 When we left, they headed for the mall.  :)

 They tired her out!
 TIRED!
The next day we spent Memorial Day out and about doing random things with Ninang and Ninong.
 Lunch in a booster seat.  This girl is way too cute!

By the way...organic puffs keep this girl busy practicing her pincer fingers at the dinner table.
Dear organic puffs people- you saved our dinners.  Love- Mommy and Daddy
 What a ham!
 Ninong and Bug
 Yup, there's the baby "belly"
 That baby in there needed a good talking to!
 After Starbucks and after lunch, we went and got frozen yogurt.  Seriously, we eat a lot.  What else is there to do on a hot day?
 Secrets. :)
 Apparently funny secrets.
 "Walking"
Is it me, or has Bug really gotten chubby?
 You see those chubby legs behind her?  That's her future.  Surprise! :)
 Yet another habit.  She seriously walks around like this ALL DAY.

The entire weekend we were together, all I could think was...in just over a month my niece will be born and instead of Ninang and Ninong helping us carry our baggage for Bug everywhere we go, we'll all be struggling to carry bags for two babies.  I can't wait.

Thank you, Ninang and Ninong for always being there for us.  We love you guys so much and don't know what we would do without you. 

God Bless,
The Dressler Family

4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 month Cub (9, 10, 11 too)

Clearly I've missed a few monthly updates of the Cub.  I apologize.  We were busy and life has literally taken us for a whirlwind ride.  To be really honest, I lost a lot of motivation to write these past few months because I've every time I started to write, all I could think to write about was my grandpa, Papang, how much I've missed him, and the endless tears that came out when I thought of him.  Every time I reflected back on the moments with my kids and my family, I seemed to cry, thinking of how much he's missed even in the short 5 months he's been gone.  After months of tears and prayers, I feel like I'm officially starting to feel like I'm healing.  While I know I may not heal completely, I can function without tears flowing from my eyes every moment of silence. Cubby has grown quite a bit (to say the least) since my 3 month update.  Here is the gentle giant's growth in months 4, 5, 6, and 7. This weekend, Cubby turned 8...

A Kinder Grad

Kindergarten can really take a toll on the parents.  (Yes, I meant to say parents.)  I knew we were in for a lot of activities and volunteering, but I did NOT know that it would become a second job to be an involved school parent.  I was told that by volunteering and being involved, it would give your kids (and their classmates) all the benefits.  At a private school (especially a Catholic private school), if there aren’t any volunteers, there aren’t many activities.  So ultimately, I knew I had to participate.  Could I have cut down on the activities I chaired or took part in?  Sure.  Why didn’t I?  [Insert long sigh here.]  Because in the end, I realized that I wasn’t sending my child to a private school because it was better than the public schools in the area.  (We actually have great public schools in our district.)  I was sending my child to a private Catholic school so she could learn about her faith.  The most imp...

9 years later...

This is the story of a dentist-in-waiting-nomad, Angela (a.k.a. my sister, "Ate"-[for those who don't speak Filipino, pronounced "a-teh"]) and a basketball playing of an engineer. Freshman year: boy sees girl and never speaks to her. Senior year: boy befriends girl's sister and gets his chance. A winter formal came along. Boy asked. Girl accepted. Boy meets girl's brothers (eek!), mom, and dad (EEK!). They danced. Girl moves to San Francisco, then San Jose. Boy moves to San Jose. Boy moves back to Valencia. Girl stays in San Jose. This summer, girl will move back to Valencia. Soon, boy and girl will finally be getting married! 9 years later! I have yet to express how excited I am that my sister and Louie are finally getting married. (Not that they needed to tie the knot to officially make Louie a part of our family.) For nine years, Louie has become another big brother to me and an Uncle "Looouuuwweeeee" to my nieces- always willing to d...
