My biggest accomplishment, here she is. I cooked her for nine months 🙂
Here she is in all her glory. I had big ideas of the kind of [first] pictures I wanted to take of my baby, and I did not even care how much it cost. I made the appointment to go take the pictures on Wednesday, October 28th 2015, which was a day after her naming ceremony. But when that morning came, I felt like I had been hit by a truck. I didn’t want to wake up just yet, and I definitely didn’t want to wake my baby up and give her a bath. Well, grandma would have given her a bath. But it still counts as me giving her a bath.
Before the appointment, I did my best to put her in a milk coma. I fed her very well until she fell into deep sleep. But when we got there, Ada Verastic decided to show the photographer what she was made of. She would not sleep, nor would she stop crying. We managed to get a few shots, but Ada Verastic was not having it . The photographer – a nice white guy with a long, thick beard – wanted to take a cute naked photo of Ada Verastic and Igwe said hell no, he can’t see my daughter naked. *insert blank stare* I’m gonna type a whole post about Igwe being a Dadzilla. It’s crazy.
Her special blanket, courtesy of her Aunt Funmie who had it specially made for her at one kin outrageous cost. It was made before she was born, and since we did not know her sex, Funmie had to use a safe color: yellow and grey. The colors also match the decor of my house (yellow, grey, and white)
Anyway, meet my pride and joy, Ada Verastic. I still owe you my labor and delivery story, I know, and I will share it, I promise. Just give me time; I literally have to steal time to be able to type a post these days. I have to pick between blog, sleep, and food, and so far, sleep has been getting the shortest end of the stick.
So, tell me, who does Ada Verastic look like?
P.S. The bow on her head looks so big and bold, but in my hand, it’s actually very tiny. Everything looks big on little people.
Your daughter is so beautiful.
Thank you, Lara *blushing*

Omalicha, akwanwa, asanwa, Ada Igwe, God bless you sweetie, you will bring continual joy to your parents and family all the days of your life. You will do great things, the world is a better place because you came.
She is so precious, cute and cuddly. Wish i could hold her.
AMEN!!! Thank you, Dalu. You can come and hold her oh. She’s growing so fast. Still as cuddly, lol, but I’m amazed at how fast she’s growing.
She’s absolutely adorable!!Look at all that beautiful baby hait, tiny hands and feet and that dimple got me lovestruck <3 doesn't look like she can even cry as ur milk coma no work.i get what u mean about everything looking big on the lil ones. Na Igwe win this one oo, after all ur cooking u gave him a complete birthday present.lol. She may still change sha or take ur complexion. I burst out laughing at Igwe saying the photographer won't see her naked.hahahaha. Overprotectiveness don start already.
We understand jare, please load up on sleep, we shall patiently await more posts,
Hamira, walahi, this girl has been deceiving everyone with her good looks. She makes people feel like she is incapable of doing any crying, but wait till she starts. Sometimes she falls asleep while crying then I guess she remembers in the middle of her sleep that she was even crying sef, so she wakes up and continues from where she stopped. Lol. Thank you so much. Please pray for Igwe. He’s going to make someone beat us up soon. Lol. More posts loading 🙂
That’s a beautiful young lady right there!! Happy for you.
Thank you so very much, Mrs Fab 🙂
I had left a commentbefore, butbecause I came back to stare at her pictures again, I am now noticing that the initial comment I dropped isnt even here!!!!
Anyway, thecrux of that comment then was that,forget about you doing any cooking Ma. You slept on this one. Igwe did the cooking. You only microwaved in order to serve her hot and spicy. Better luck next time!
But man, nwa gi bu mara mma nke ukwuu!!!!!
I know I willstill be back to stare some more…..oh well! She is OUR Ada Verastic!
Aaaahhhh!! HoneyDame, you have insulted me!! Me, I microwaved, ke? Aaaahhhh!!! You will pay for this oh. I don’t know the punishment to give you yet, but yes, you will definitely receive it. Please believe me. Lol. And your comment disappeared? I don’t know how come oh. I’ll go check the spam folder. Or maybe it was even God that just removed it since you were here to insult me anyway. Lol.
Oh, and yes, she’s definitely OUR (YOUR) Ada Verastic 🙂
Anyone with dimples is automatically beautiful, in my book 🙂 She’s gorg!
Hahaha. Thank you, Belle. This dimple better stay oh!
Aawwwwww, such a cutie… That dimple too… She looks like a dream.
God bless her so.
Amen, Amen. Chi-Chi, thank you very, very much.

Thank you so much, Aunt Pendo! Ada Verastic is blushing, lol. And Amen, Amen, Amen to your wonderful prayers. Thank you, Pendo 🙂
Awww…
Ada is very cute, I can’t believe I missed the mail, usually up to speed on your blog..
Better late than never..
Ada definitely looks like Igwe..
I am truly truly happy for you guys, may God continue to wax the bond more stronger as you start this new journey..
Kindly tell Igwe all fatherly lessons will be given to him for free..
You made my Sunday..
I’m happy to witness the story and the blessing, many more on the way by his grace.
Fad, thank you so very, very much for your comment. Better late than never, like you said. I have passed your message across to Igwe, so now he knows. Thank you so much, Fad.
Awwww she is ADORABLE! oh my goodness, see those little dimples!!! and LWKM @ igwe saying the photographer can’t see her naked LOLL
Lmao. I can so relate. As a Photographer, Not many men love their daughter or even son being photograph naked.
The other day, a couple were in a tug of war at the studio, he later agreed but with a stern warning that none must suffice on social media, just for personal record only.
She is so gorgeoues. I’m in love with her dimple.
May God bless her for you Sweets 🙂
