Griffin's 6th month and my first time away from him

So, my baby turned 6 months, coming in at a whopping 21 pounds, and spent the day taking his first ever swimming class. 

Then later that week, we took him to Guama's house to stay for 5 days because Dennis and I will leave him for 3 days to take a short trip to Singapore. Dennis and I booked our tickets at the travel fair about two months ago and flipflopped on whether we should bring him with us. We finally decided it would be a good chance for us to take a short break, reconnect and sort of cap off our exciting year together. It's only been a night away from G so far and Mommy already misses him loads. Waiting at NAIA for our boarding time was the toughest for me-- leaving him minutes ago was still fresh in my mind and there were limited ways of distracting myself at the old rickety airport. Good thing our flight was on time and by mid-morning we were already at the land of the Merlion. 

We also realized it's quite fitting for SG to be our first trip together as parents. It was our first trip together as well as a married couple. And we intend to make it our first trip abroad with Gboy as well, when he's a bit (or a lot bigger). I know my in laws plan a US holiday next year but I'm referring to our first trip as our nuclear family. Wouldn't that be nice? :)

Miss you so much, baby.
