| What Samuel Timothy Means |
 You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know. You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want. You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way! You are a very lucky person. Things just always seem to go your way. And because you're so lucky, you don't really have a lot of worries. You just hope for the best in life. You're sometimes a little guilty of being greedy. Spread your luck around a little to people who need it. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in. You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising. You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care. |
The first paragraph reads: suave, sexy, smart, and strong. Oh no. Just like someone we know. My asawa! I can see a lot of similarities already.
We chose his name because the initials S & T stand for St Therese (of Lisieux), our patron. Samuel because it's close to my name Samantha and Timothy because it is one of the favorite boy's name of my other half.

1st Rotavirus Dosekay.
It's been a month since my last post. We have a new nanny because Yaya Neneng decided to get married. I've been very busy juggling work, taking care of Ximo and with house chores.
Today we came from the doctor. Ximo had his first shot of rotarix and my asawa (spouse) tells me that the rotavirus is a scary disease without prevention.
Honestly I really don't care about the expenses on the vaccines. Sometimes I think about coping with the finances but... all I really care about now is that our son accomplishes the much-suggested vaccines including what some parents shy away from getting for their kids because of the costs that burn a hole in their pockets.
I reckon it's a matter of budgetting or scheduling expenses on our part.
Our top priority are his vaccines. His christening comes second, which, by the way, we still haven't set a date for.
Let me tell you about Ximo's nanny. Her name is Ruby. She has a good disposition. What I like about her is that Ruby is opinionated. She speaks out her mind, unlike other nannies that just nod their heads and say, "Yes, Ate (big sister)." Ruby says outright when she doesn't understand my instructions. I appreciate that. Very much.
Right now she is too careful to do things ahead of what I say. She waits to be told. This is understandable considering she's been with Ximo for only about a week. I expect her to change this once she gets the routine.
Our Ximo is fast becoming more of a little person each day. There are noticeable subtle developments like no more blank stares. He gradually recognizes his name when called out. He socializes, converses, talks back and initiates conversations. The pedia asked if he can roll over. I said that there's no opportunity for him because he often prefers lying on his back, altho he will raise his upper body from time to time. This surprised the pedia because he said that this baby milestone is seen at 5 months. Ximo is turning 3 next month. So the pedia suggested to integrate tummy time to test if Ximo will atempt to roll on his own.
The pedia also cautioned us on his weight. He's now 5.9 kg, a whooping 1.2 kg more since his last visit!
Here's a short video of Ximo socializing with us. The video was taken by my asawa. Enjoy!
