Summer is almost here! While families an friends are posting their #braggie shots of the places they have been to, my roommate (my husband, btw) and I can't help but just "like" all their posts in envy. Unfortunately, summer's gonna come later this year since our school year ends in May pa.
*sigh*
I've been begging Boss Ayat for a vacation since last year cos this is the first time I'm not going to Singapore with my family for our yearly one-month trip and I didn't win in the I love Ayala Mall's El Nido Giveaway. But Charley got featured anyway, which is nice.
This momma needs a vacation. Now.
When the long Holy week-end came, Team Hernandez grabbed the opportunity to head to Boss Ayat's house by the beach in Batangas!
This is the 3rd time we're bringing Baby Charley to a beach: the first time when she was 2 months old and another when she was 3 so we're not sure how she would react to the beach.
So we practiced by bringing the beach to her. Thank you, Inflatable Pool!
With her Ate Vanna, Baby Charley got her first taste of the beach right there in our garage! Yes, in her hot red swimsuit.
Days after, we headed to the beach house in Lobo, Batangas. After almost an hour, we're finally there to enjoy the beach right in front of the house.
Fortunately, it wasnt very hot that day, so Baby Charley got to enjoy the beach in peace.
First, we brought her to the shore and we waited until she's ready.
And she did! Lots!
Since we're already in the province, believe me it was such a relaxing experience, we wanted Baby Charley to experience the "buhay probinsya" in full. So we hiked a bit, showed her the farm animals she could only see in her books, and take a bath with a poso.
Sadly, the day had to end and we had to say goodbye to the beach. But not for long Im sure! Cos now that we know Baby Charley loves the sea as much as we do, we can't wait to bring her to all of our travel adventures!
so cute your daughter w the bandana on her head. same kami peg! hahaha
ReplyDeleteThis is the only type of headband she could bear. :) Thanks for visiting! :)
DeleteI can't wait to bring my twins to the beach too! Right now medyo hirap pa kasi medyo bored sila sa matagal na byahe. Cute ni baby gurl sa last pic!
ReplyDeleteGood for you that you were able to cross off a beach trip from your summer list :) We are contemplating of bringing our kid army to Batangas as well kahit for a day trip but with a 5 month old baby, a toddler and a grade schooler --- it's a handful! Hopefully, makastaycation man lang sana kami ulit before the summer ends.
ReplyDeleteBatangas beach is great!! :) We're thinking of a staycation, too, kaya lang, we really want breath of fresh air. :) Thanks for visiting! :)
DeleteBeen wanting as well to have some staycation or beach vacation with the boys. My eldest still has classes until end of April. Hopefully we be able to do either of the two or both! Ihihi. Btw, your little Charley is so cute! And the ate Vanna obviously enjoyed the water.

Thank you. She's her cousin. :) Head to the beach! :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
Cute naman ni baby! Can't wait for my boy's reaction when we go this May. :)
ReplyDeleteHi, Nini! :) I'm sure Kiel (?) will enjoy it, too! :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
I know what you mean -- we didn't go anywhere during the Holy Week, too! But it's awesome that you were able to go to the actual beach. I'm sure the kids had fun!
ReplyDeleteWe're fortunate my roommate has a house by the beach so food and accommodation are free. :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
Kami din delayed ang summer. Buti nga kayo, naka -go na. Kami next week pa. Hihihi.. Nakakatuwa ang mga bata pag nasa beach eh. Masaya talaga sila.
ReplyDeleteSuper saya! We're afraid Charley would get scared pero after a few minutes, she enjoyed na! :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
The first time the kids went to the beach, they were 2 and 4 na :)) My husband doesn't like the beach as much as I do :( But we're planning to bring the kids back soon :)
ReplyDeleteSince my husband grew up with the beach just across his house, he's not that interested, too. I'm just glad he's pumapayag whenever I ask him to take us there. :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
Ang cute ni Baby Charley! and she loves swimming!
ReplyDeleteWe always went to Beach once a year during summer time, hope we can visit new place this year
ReplyDeleteOh, I envy you. :) I really love the beach. The city life is tiring for me. :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
Parang mabato ata masyado for me this particular beach, but thanks for the heads up -- at least I know.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Yes. Sadly this beach is medyo mabato nga sa shore, but it's fine naman. It's not a resort, and there are beautiful resorts in Batangas na sandy. :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
Where exactly is the beach? I am from Lemery but hardly there are stones...
ReplyDeleteThis is Lobo. Beaches in Lemery are sandy compared sa Mabini and Lemery. :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
I am asking my husband too to have ourselves a vacation. Your baby looks enjoyed at the water.
ReplyDeleteShe did! I'm really for any type of road trip to the provinces. :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
I remember my kids when they were small! They love swimming and they can't get enough of it! Looks like your little one had fun.😊
ReplyDeleteShe did. She's tired of the buildings in Makati na, so she had fun sa province. :)
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
Reading your post and seeing that your baby enjoyed the sea water adds up to my excitement this coming weekend! We will be bringing our son to a family summer getaway. It was just a private hot spring and pool though. But still, I'm excited! Hihi! I'm glad to see your Charley had fun. You must have another beach trip soon!! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's fun! Beach trips are really fun especially now that it's super init. Good luck naman sa skin. :D
DeleteThanks for visiting! :)
Been looking for a very nice beach/pool resort at Batangas! Ang saya nyo tignan =)
