Last Friday, andrea, mateo and I went to mamu and papu’s (andrea’s parents) house. But on our way there, we stopped over to meet up with my mama and papa first in SM City’s the Block. We were there to pick up Mateo’s pictures to show them to his grandparents.

For Mateo, it was his first time there to walk around freely. You see, we’ve been there several times before but only for picture taking so we never got to bring him to the atrium. Last Friday, we did. And he was just so happy.

There were balloons on stage. The atrium was relatively free (compared to times when there are events being held there of course). He was all around the place looking up at everybody’s faces, chasing balloons, playing pick-a-boo with people he doesn’t even know. He was having the time of his life. And we were too as we watched him do his antics. Everyone around him was so amused by him – we were, his grandparents, even the strangers there whom he was playing with (whether deliberately or not I don’t know).

Unfortunately, we didn’t get a picture of him in the atrium. So instead of that, here are just the pictures we got from the studio instead – the ones we went there to pick up.
