jacob's three today

i can't believe my nephew is three-years old today (aug 20) and while we decided not to hold a jollibee or mcdonald's party, we had a small gathering (mostly family) @ panciteria san jacinto right at e rodriguez avenue. admittedly, the food was actually good with our choice set consisting of crab & corn soup, fried chicken, fried rice, chopsuey, lumpiang shanghai and some really awesome shrimp camaron (i think that's what its called). the place was actually packed around lunch time proving that the restaurant was actually a popular choice.

jacob was his usual high-spirited, energetic self running everywhere. he's very very talkative now and while he still can't pronounce some words, he does have a knack for recognizing symbols - mcdonalds, jollibee, sm shoemart, bpi, shell, caltex ... its just awesome hearing him talk. for his bday, jacob wore the guess polo i bought him last christmas along with an old navy corduroy pants and the new balance shoes i got him from the US a month ago. my sister had a "blues clues" cake made for his birthday and he was eager to blow the candles when it came to cake time.

jacob is really growing up fast. next year, he's going to start school already and we're not sure yet which school to enroll him, top choice right now is la salle zobel (yes, i am a true-blooded, die-hard la sallian & bosconian). talking about that reminded me to start inquiring for next schoolyear.

happy 3rd birthday, jacob patrick. i love you baby.

uh oh, while waiting at the car for mom while she was closing the gate, i suddenly had an attack of dizziness. it was really bad cause i thought the whole car was being tossed around. i think its either i should stop taking my hydroxycut or i should eat some more (i did eat a siopao for breakfast). scary. i hope i don't get one of those spells while driving.
