Babies.

Lately, I have been thinking a lot about babies.

Babies are super duper cute. They're cute when they do old people stuff too like barf and shot in their tiny pants! I love it.

Back in the day, I never liked babies. I don't hate them either, it's just I don't really care much when I see some. But I really hated it when they cried. It was a huge pet peeve. I even swore to never have one, yeah, once I told myself never have babies! They're too much.

When I was 9 and the youngest, I waited (though not expecting) a little sib to come along in the family. That was something I never told my family. I was this old person in a young body. I didn't like being treated like a kid. I didn't play with kids. I didn't like kids at all. I thought my older brother and sister are both immature. I enjoyed Thirtysomething and Beverly Hills 90210 (at 9 years old) and they enjoyed Miami Vice very very much (nothing wrong with it noh?). We all liked Baywatch.

Then it happened before I turned 10. My little sister from the big white stork. I don't have pictures to prove it but from what I remember, she was way too cute. I sneaked to my parents' bedroom every now and then where we aren't always allowed coz we were a rowdy bunch of kids me and my older sibs.

Finally! A little baby to keep my parents' and yayas' attention away! haha. I thought that was really cool. When I was a kid, I couldn't wait to be a grownup and be talked to and treated that way (my family was super fond of babytalk and smothering).

So I liked my little baby sib until she turned human.
A walking (almost), talking (almost), throwing, puking, tantruming human!

I never liked babies.
Then a few months before my 21st birthday my big sis had one. His name was Ariestony (in our family he had a handful of nicknames).


(Tony a few months old. Spot Johnson's baby oil. lol)

Now, he's four and adorable and far away.

(Tony blowing 4 candles! He is all grown up now. *sobs*)

BABIES ARE AWESOME!

I don't know yet if I want to have one. But I am really liking babies. It's one of the biggest surprises of my life. It's like hating fish all your life and finding yourself addicted to it years later. Haha. Weird example but it sort of makes sense, don't you think?

More adorable babies that I know in the next post.
And more reasons why I used to not like babies.
And and more reasons why I do now!

Yes!
