belated happy birthday to iñigo's daddy and my love! =)

i'm a bad wife for posting late jude's birthday celebration. we actually had it simple then as we were both busy that day--jude renewed his driver's license in LTO and i dropped by in my office as there's something urgent for me to address. so there was no chance to prepare for a simple bash or whatever. after jude and iñigo fetched me in my office in alabang, we drove straight to paseo de sta. rosa (jude insisted that no malling for his special day... sige na nga... hehe) and had dinner in one of our favorite restos--kanin club--and ordered the special dishes they are known for--crispy dinuguan, sinangag na sinigang, and lumpiang sariwa.

we all had a feast! even the little boy who never failed to wow us with his big appetite, went home with a full stomach. look at his lovely smile after he finished his share of dinuguan:

his teeth need an extra brushing eh? =D

so that was how we celebrated jude's birthday last monday--so simple and yet intimate. i still don't even have a gift for him until now. can my movie treat (the dark knight) last friday count? hehe.

i still have plans of giving him something nice as soon as i got my money; but my problem is i don't know what to give him (it's always been my problem!). can i just wrap iñigo and tie him with pretty ribbons as he'd always muse that his son is the best gift he had every received? =)
