The Twins’ Baptismal Ceremony
Last March 4, 2018, was the twins’ baptism: Chloe and Sky were finally baptized in Christ The King Parish Church where Basti, Ethan and Stephen were also baptized.

Just like the 3 older boys prepared the twins’ white Baptismal clothes and hired someone to decorate the Baptismal candles which also served as souvenirs to the Godparents.

Twins baptism at Christ the King Parish: everything doubled

However, the Twins’ Baptism is extra special because everything is double. Daddy Paolo became more involved because unlike before where I was the only one who was carrying the baby to be baptized, he was carrying one of the Twins last March 4.

We were able to actively participate in baptism because we were carrying the Twins throughout the ceremony — from the Gospel reading to the lighting of candles, anointing of oil, and pouring of the Holy Water.

Special thanks to Chloe’s and Sky’s Godparents for attending the Baptismal ceremony even If It was on a Sunday

Thank you very much to our family members as well.

Finally, I would like to thank our San Juan Photography for taking this nice family shot

outside the church (we were not able to do this in previous baptismal ceremony of the 3 older boys). Thank you very much!

My Very Useful Maternity / Breastfeeding Pillow
I had this C-shaped maternity pillow since my 3rd Child (4 years ago). It was already useful then but since I got pregnant with the Twins, I know I cannot last a day without It. My husband even said that he feels I Love the pillow more the him hehehe.

Why the C-shaped maternity pillow earned its spot

This C shape pillow provided the comfort I need when I was still pregnant with the Twins. With this maternity pillow, I was able to sleep comfortably throughout the night (without back pain), compared to when I sleep with a regular pillow.

From maternity pillow to twins breastfeeding pillow

And now, I am even using it when Breastfeeding the Twins. Unlike my regular breastfeeding pillow (which I only currently use when we are travelling), this C shape pillow, allowed me to breastfeed the twins at the same time via football hold position. It has bigger space which ensure that the Twins will not fall. However, just to be sure, I still support it some pillows while Breastfeeding the Twins. Without this C shaped pillow, I think I’ll be on a breastfeeding duty 24 hours a day alternating one baby after another, without sleeping.

Twins’ Baby Shower Gift Opening
One day after the Twins’ Baby Shower, Kuya Basti and Kuya Ethan helped Mommy Dimple opened the gifts for the twins.

Twins baby shower gifts, from practical to cute

Since Chloe and Sky are registered in SM Gift Registry, Mommy Dimple like most of the baby shower gifts; from practical and useful things (like diapers, baby bottle warmer, baby bed foam, and microwaveable steamer), to cute and unique things (like the mermaid baby blanket and teeth and umbilical cord wooden container).

Thank you to the Godparents and guests who spend time buying gifts from our baby registry. Special thanks to those who gave money as well,

The Twins’ Rustic Baby Shower
Last November 25, 2017, we had a Rustic inspired Baby Shower for the twins, Chloe and Sky, in a function room.

Our DIY rustic baby shower for twins

Mama Tessa and Godparent Joey made a DIY Backdrop for Sky and Chloe using wood pallets, varnish, pink and blue paint, colored Christmas Lights and Japanese paper flowers.

Mama Tessa also brought some plants from her garden and a chair to align with the Rustic atmosphere.

To complete the look of the backdrop, they also set up a cork board (decorated with doillies and Japanese paper flowers) and a big Teddy bear.

They also made another wooden backdrop for the dessert station.

To align with the Rustic theme, each table is decorated with a cactus plant centerpiece.

The buffet station is also set up to align with the pink and blue theme.

The baby shower games

And of course we asked the guests to play games like…
1. Pin the Babies in the Tummy: where each Group is asked to choose a representative who is to walk blindfolded and to pin the babies on my (Mommy Dimple’s) tummy. The group representative who pinned the babies nearest to my tummy Wins the game.
2. Pregnant Diaper Relay: where the Boys are asked to put diaper on the Baby while they are wearing a baseball Baby bump (to add to the challenge). The first Group to finish the Relay wins the game.
3. The Price is Right: where each Group is to guess the price of the Baby item in the picture; the Group with the nearest price gets the point. The Group with the most Number of points wins the game.
4. Guess the size of My Baby Bump: where each Player Will guess the size of the pregnant mommy’s tummy using a string. The Player with the nearest guess wins.
