because we don’t enjoy much my first cd, L.A. bought me a new one.  it is actually a sing-a-long cd, like videoke.  and i loved it’s first song, Sing A Song.  Tita Lee also sings along with it, and i enjoy it.

my tita icy and my mom bought me a cd of schoenberger effect which is for nurturing when i was still in my mom’s tummy.  we used to listen to it while my mom is doing payroll.  but it makes L.A. and my mom quite irritable, and so am i.  my mom thought i was reacting possitively because i kept on bouncing around.  but when i came out, it showed we were reacting the same.  so my tatay will just play it when i am sleeping for the effect.

my favorite song when i was two months old is twinkle twinkle little star.

and now my favorite song is sing a song.  maybe because the rhyming appeals to me and because my tatay looks funny when he sings it to me.  my mom sings it to me to calm me when i’m quite uncooperative.  it makes me smile, and sometimes giggle, even squeal!

hello world!  i am Reaella Pintinio Diego. my name was a combination of my father’s name–Reynaldo–and my mother’s name–Isabella.  My father chose and decided the spelling of my name (he’s to blame).  he was also the one to think of my cool nick, which is Yala.

I was born on September 13, 2005 at the City of Muntinlupa at 9:55 p.m.

I may look like a boy but i am cute little GIRL.

when i was two months old. my mom read to me "What to Expect The First Year" and "Chicken Soup for the Woman’s Soul" to her own interest. because i cannot understand yet a word she’s saying, though i can get familiarize with the words and the language. i enjoyed listening though and was attentive, sometimes i read along with her by cooing, and sometimes reading helps me fall asleep. when i reached three months old, i became fascinated with pictures, so my mom already has to read to me books suited for my age, not for her own interest anymore. my mom was planning to buy me a storybook and flashcards of the alphabet, but Ninang Jun said it will be her gift.  hopefully tomorrow she could visit me and give me my christmas gift.  so me and my mom will have something better for our bonding.
