Photo AlbumFamily Outing: Tagaytay!Oct 27, '06 2:07 PM
for everyone
Instead of throwing Bella the traditional 1st birthday party (which she won't remember or appreciate at that age anyway, in my opinion), we decided to take the weekend off and headed for Tagaytay. Thanks, Roxanne, for lending us the house. We had a great time. Here are some (hehe... ok more than just some...) of my favorite pics from there.

Mama saw the camera first...
  
then Bella noticed it...
  
"Peek-a-boo!"
  
"Peek-a-boo" # 2
  
"Is he still taking my picture?"

The first time Bella sat on grass
  
Happily playing with a pine needle

Watch what happens next...
  
though focused on the needle...
  
the grass is starting to get itchy.
  
itchier
  
and itchier
  
Bella's 'aargh! itchy my legs!' face
  
She dropped the needle. Not worth it.

that's the "wow! TV!" expression. (we don't have TV at home e.) :D

Trivia... we were watching our Philippine Idol Drae perform amazingly the night this was taken. Go Drae! You're our Philippine Idol. Wohoo!!!

Hehe. I finally discovered what those icons on my phone menu settings meant.

love this shot :) they're both just so happy! sarap sana to have someone 5 times your size to cradle you like this no? even when you're all grown up :D

that'd look awfully weird tho...

Who? Janelle? Yes... ever since she was a kid. We can't do anything about it anymore. :D

Hehehe...

o you meant Bella...

Thanks Tanya!

and yes, we'll frame most of this... as soon as we develop them. Hopefully we get it to that stage. For some reason these pictures remain in our hard drives (over 3k na!) and we keep forgetting to print them out... hay!

hahaha. hay naku...most digital pictures are like that. i guess that's what makes it so different from film (besides the obvious)... it's so easy to take you end up with hundreds hahaha.

oh, but there are electronic frames now, that sort of puts your pictures in slideshow mode! kakaaliw talaga. i think they're a bit pricey now, but maybe in a few months they'll be "standard" na in every home. imagine a picture frame with different Bella poses every 10 seconds! cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute.

Okay, she really looks like you here. ;P

I love the story-telling. Too cute. Found myself laughing out loud as soon as I saw her begin to lift her legs in the succeeding photos.

Sorry, Bella. Friends pa rin tayo, ha. ;P

May taga hawak pa ng paa.
