3D TV

I wanted to own at least one of those very nice 3d tvs that I saw online someday. My brother said it is a good investment as they have one in their house. Hmmm… Will save up for that little by little but I think it will take us years before we can purchase one. We have a lot on our wish list right now and I really hope to accomplish most of it.

Excited Much!

I am so excited for tomorrow’s 1st birthday party of my dear friend’s baby girl. My friend gives everything to her kids and one of that is a grand party every first birthday. I attended her first born 1st birthday party and it was very nice. She even hired a professional party planner! She was too busy to arrange the party all by herself. And tomorrow I am sure it is another grand celebration. I can’t wait! Will post pictures soon!

Long Lost Friend Found

I am staring at this barcode scanner photo here on my laptop when a friend popped up a message asking what I am doing. I said I am busy doing nothing. haha! So we had chat and catch up on our daily lives. It’s been months since I talked to this friend of mine. I am happy to reconnect with her again. I love talking to long lost friends. It feels like I gained a new friend again. I hope to find long lost friends again soon. Thanks to FB and YM! I just love technology.

Early Christmas Preparations

website 031

Mom asked me to find a replacement LED bulb for her Christmas lights. Too early for Christmas preparation right? Moms! hahahaha! Thank God there is ledsupply.com for led lighting needs. And I browsed their site and found the one I am looking for. Now I can cross out this errand and head on to the next one. Yes there are tons of errand by my mother. LOL!

Off to tell mom about my accomplishment.

Now that there are only 2 more episodes to wait for Desperate Housewives I need to find a good TV series to watch. And a friend suggested this one. They loved it and I am convinced to try to watch it too. I am now downloading this one as I missed the first 20 episodes. I cannot wait to watch the first episode. I am so excited!

The timeless battle of good vs evil is ready to begin again.Written by L. Hamre

Dream place to visit

I have been browsing disneyland site for hours now. I am day dreaming again to go to the happiest place on earth. I am happy just by looking at the photos of my friends who went there already or by the photos online. How much more if I will visit the place! I might die if I see the castle of Cinderella!!! The child in me shows whenever Disneyland is being talked about. I want to go there!!! Someday this dream will come true. Someday i will bring Cate and Hans there.

How to Replace Car Seats

I was wondering how upholstery shops do their job. Just like how I am curious on any other jobs out there. This is the question that’s in my head these past few days since I saw my father in law at an upholstery shop the other day. I asked hubby on how to repair leather car seats as it’s been bothering me how they replace those very ugly seat cover and make magic to get a very nice one in the end. Hubby can’t fully explain it well to me so he said one day he will bring me to his friends upholstery shop and let me watch on how do they do it. Yey! I am so excited!

Signs That You’re Addicted To DrawSomething

This is so cool and funny!  I guess I am addicted to Drawsomething too!

Outdoor Ceiling Fans

We are here at Casa Basilisa Resort. Having a dip at the pool with my husband's family. The fresh air is so calming. Even Hans is sleeping so peacefully. But sometimes it is so hot, this resort should get the outdoor ceiling fans at PalmFanStore.com. I saw beautiful ones in their site. For sure this resort will be a hit if they install an outdoor ceiling fans in each cottage.

Metal Coat Rack

master-ADO079

I remember we have a metal coat rack when we are still little and we hang all of our hats there. Not much of a coat hanger but a hat hanger! hahahaha! I can’t remember if we have a photo of that. And I am sure I won’t be able to find it if ever we have a photo of it anyways! I am just reminiscing those wonderful time when I was a kid when I saw these metal coat racks from CoatRacks.com. They are so nice! Perfect for a beautiful home! I wish I have one too here in our house. For sure Cate and Hans will have fun hanging their hats there too! We’ll see if we can get one at the mall soon.

American Idol Top 6

68d60c8447fe0d3364eaaf5b3fe530f3171902b1-American-Idol-11-Top-6

Wow Jessica Sanchez is still on Top 6! Woot!

Go Jessica Sanchez!

I love supporting fellow Filipino. And we are so proud Jessica made it to Idol and even made it to Top 6! She is one talented young lady. I love her! She has great and powerful voice. If only voting is possible here in the Philippines, I will surely vote for her.

Can’t wait for the next performance next week!

Grocery Shopping

We went to Embarcadero last Sunday with the family to get some groceries at Puregold. I heard they are having a sale there so we opted to get the groceries there. We got some home care products, toiletries and some snacks to fill up the pantry. I am happy that we got new stocks of food this week. I love seeing the pantry full of canned foods, junks and biscuits. But I totally forgot to get bread. I got spreads but I forgot the bread! Ugh! Now we need to go back and buy the bread at the bakery.

Back to Sleep

I want to go back to sleep right now. But I still need to finish I think two more blog posts. I need to hurry up so I can still go back to bed before the sun comes up. It is already 4:34am and I hope to sleep for at least an hour or two before my two babies wakes up. Wish me luck on this one. I need to rest!

Gifts for Girls

Now I remember today was also my friend's birthday! I should get something for her later. I will have to look at the newly opened gift store near our place later. Maybe there is something I can get for her there.

It is so nice to pick gifts for girls than with boys. I always had a hard time thinking on gift ideas for boys ever since. Thank God no boy friends will celebrate birthdays in the near future. If there is I will just give them a T-shirt. haha! A very lousy idea. Ugh!

Cup Cake Design Ideas

163748136420923686_nqjuEpKt_c

I have been browsing Pinterest for some cup cake design ideas for my son’s monthly birthday. I decided to use cupcakes instead of the usual round or square cake that can be bought at the bakery. Why? I just want something different this time.

I found a really nice baker which can customize to the design I want. And I am so happy with the one she designed for me on my son’s 1st month birthday cup cakes. Today marks the second month of my son and later we will pick up another set of cupcakes and I am so excited!  Will post photos of the cupcake soon!

And oh that photo above is so cute! I might ask the baker to do a robot themed one.

Rocktron MIDI as a Gift for Hubby

Hubby plays the bass guitar during his teenage years. They have a band called Rubber Band. Very silly name right? Now I can see that he misses performing. I should push him to go back to his first love. And get the Rocktron MIDI which he's been dreaming of getting. I should start saving up as his birthday is getting nearer. 7 months to go. haha! I still have a lot of time to save up yey!

Graduation Day

Tomorrow will be our helper's kids graduation day. We won't be able to attend the event as the weather is unpredictable and no one will take care of Hans. Two of her kids has honor and she is so proud of them. And the other one will receive a trophy for winning the basketball tournament in school. I heard the teachers are looking for trophies at AwardsForAnything.com last time I talked to them on the phone. I guess they are looking for sponsors and was planning of asking me if I can donate a trophy or money to buy one. But she hesitated. Oh well there will always be next time.

I am also proud of our helper’s kids. They are like family to us. Their accomplishments makes me happy. Good Job kids!

Pastel

IMG_1059

This was a gift from my sister’s boyfriend who went to Bohol last month. I saw this on my friends Instagram and I was too curious on what’s the taste and i am so happy when a package from my sister’s boyfriend arrived. I asked my sis if I can take a bite and boy it was so good! This goes on my favorite food! If you are also curious on the taste you have to get one of these whether in Bohol or at your groceries if they carry it. I definitely recommend this! ♥

Our Gift to Sis

We will still celebrate the actual birthday of my sister which is today. She said she will be ordering foods at Red Labuyo Restaurant later for dinner. We told her that we will buy her cake/cupcakes. That will be our gift to her. I really wish I can give her something expensive like these titanium rings that I saw online. But we don’t have a budget for that right now. The cake will do for now. Will take lots of photos later at our mini celebration at my parents house and share it here. Later!

Celebrate

Happy birthday sis!

Another year has been added to your life. I hope you are having a good time on your special day.

We celebrated my sister’s birthday yesterday. Mom cooked lots and lots of food. Guests, relatives and friends went to my parents house to celebrate with us. I saw on their faces that they enjoyed the food. Mom did it again. She’s a talented cook! I wish to be like her someday. LOL!

Again Happy Birthday sis! We love you!

Before and After

I am off to read reviews on calorie burner 643 but I just want to share with you all this funny before and after photo. This was made by my darling daughter Cate. She is so funny nowadays. This was the cupcake from Hans’ 1st month celebration. I am holding this cupcake when Cate saw me and asked for it. I handed this to her and let her eat it. I took a before photo coz I know that the after photo is a silly one. And I am right, she just ate the head of Nemo. Poor little fish. LOL!

IMG_0285

Cate Loves Books

Look at her enjoying her books. I am glad she is a book lover. She would get her books first than her toys when playing. She will look at the pictures and try to imitate them. I silently watch her and giggle when she make those funny faces imitating the picture on the book. Continue being a book lover my dear Cate. It will do good for you in the future.

New camera For Bro

My brother got a new canon DSLR. It's a 7D baby! I wondered why they got a very nice photos lately. they didn't tell us they got a new cam. And when I asked my sister in law the other day she said they bought a new cam. Very very nice camera! Now I am drooling of their new cam. I wish I can upgrade to a higher version too but we are poor right now. We don't have money for an upgrade. And right now I am thinking of getting a point and shoot cam. My DSLR is still working and gives me nice photos. Maybe I will get one of those digital canon cameras or an Olympus brand. I am still reading some reviews.

Sis is Home

My sister is now home from her weekend visit to Los Banos. She brought home our favorite Mernels cake. Thanks sis! Welcome home! The kids missed you so much! I hope you have something for them too! haha! They will be rummaging your stuff to look for a toy or something from your trip so be prepared. LOL!

Getting Married

A friend of mine posted on Facebook that she is looking for some sample photos of diamond wedding rings. She is getting married in June that's why. I really do hope she got one already. If not I will recommend a site for her. I am happy that she is finally getting married. I think they are together for 8 years already. This year will be the right year for them to get married. I wish them the best and a happy married life.

Hans

Here's a photo of my baby boy.

DSC_6484 copy 2

Isn’t he adorable? He is one tiny little baby. I love to cuddle him. He is such a good boy. Lets Mama sleep and work just by being behave on the crib. He also sleeps most of the time. I love him as much as I love Cate.

still here

Sorry for not updating all of you. I am recovering very well and baby Hans sleeps most of the time. Yes I gave birth already and we are fine, just lacking sleep as of the moment. I still need to find some cufflinks for men that’s why I am still awake at 1:30am. My friend needs them not me. I am just helping him for his project. Oh well, will continue looking for a nice cufflinks and then I am off to bed. So Bye for now!

Announcement

Stubborn Me

Ok I am still here. Baby Boy is also still in my tummy. 38 weeks now. Here I am looking for some hip hop clothing for a friend. Nope I don't need a hip hop clothing right now. Just being a good friend. A helper indeed. I wonder where she will need to wear that clothing. Oh well, This week I am finding it hard to sleep early. I always tell myself to go to sleep after Cate sleeps but after I sit down on my work area I can't stand up, close my laptop and sleep. Ugh! My hubby kept on reminding me that I need to rest. Bad me! Ok my two loves are now in the dreamland and I think I need to join them now.

 

Good Night!

MIA for a while

Ok soon I will be MIA again here. I will be giving birth in a few weeks. On my 37th week now. I don’t know when will I be able to blog again. I hope soon. I will try. But for the meantime please bear with me as I deliver my baby and recover from it. I hope to “see” you all again here soon.

Ah Spa!

I wish we have spa at home so I won't have to travel for 30-45 minutes to go to the nearest one. It is so relaxing to go to a spa. A simple nail cleaning is relaxing to me. What more if I will have the massage too. I will need that after a few month of giving birth.  It will relax me for sure. And to prepare too for the unending mommy duties.

If you are looking for spacoverdirect spa covers then you all should visit www.spacoverdirect.com. They have all the nice covers for your spa. Will suggest this site for a friend who is looking for a cover the other day.

Waiting

I am just waiting for my downloads to finish and I am off to bed. So for the meantime I am just here checking FB and twitter from time to time and looking at these beautiful outdoor gazebo that a friend share on my email. I am looking for some inspirations on the design as hubby wanted the carpenter to make one for our house. I am too excited for this project. I just hope it will be finished before I give birth or if so I will just enjoy it after the baby is born. Will just have to rest and heal the wound for a week or two. Wish me luck!

Please Go Away Cough!

My two loves (hubby and Cate) has cough right now. I am worried with their condition so I asked hubby yesterday that we go to the doctor and have them checked. Now they are taking their meds and I do hope that they will be better soon. I don’t want to give birth and worry about their health. Please pray for my two love ok? Thanks!

Hey!

Ok it is 12:12am already I am still awake. Hubby told me to go to sleep already but I disobeyed him. Shhhh... I still need to find those al capone cigars for a friend. And I am scrapping gallery hopping right now. I need inspiration to scrap. I wanted to finish an album for Cate before the second baby arrives. But in a week? I don’t think so.

Ready To Pop!

I am now on my 36th week and I guess I am ready to pop. But I still need the baby to grow inside so he will be healthy when he says “Hello World!”. A few more weeks and I will meet our little bundle. Cate is excited to see him. We are too!

Will post pics as soon as I am cable of doing so.

Wish me luck!

New Job

A friend want to get a new job and he wanted those Network Engineer Jobs that he saw online. Well 2012 is coming and I hope he will get what he wants. I will just wish him good luck as a lot of newly graduates are applying as well. Competition is tough.

So good luck to all of you who are applying for a new job!

2012

I wonder what 2012 has for me. I hope everything will be good, for my family, my two babies, my husband, my friends, my career and myself. I am so excited to welcome the new year!

2012, please be good to me okay?

Happy New Year everyone!

No Gift for Hubby

I have no gift for hubby last Christmas. Bad wife eh? Was thinking of getting him some revell model cars, but I ran out of budget so my gift will be late. I just told him to wait for my gift until Valentines Day so he won’t expect in January. hahaha!!!

I have no gift for myself too. =( Oh well will just buy something for myself when I have the money. Times like this, when money arrives, I will buy something for Cate and the baby boy in my tummy than buy something for myself. That’s the life of a mother.

Alive na Alive!

I am posting updates on my twitter. Ako na ang madaldal dun. Parang tanga lang ako lang nagpopost ng ganitong oras. hahahah!

Ok I am wide awake at 1am. Monitoring my sick baby Cate. As of this writing her temperature is down to 37.8 from 38.6. I hope my baby will get well soon. I am panicking again in times like this. I don’t want anything to happen to her. Trauma from Huey’s situation way back then. =(

Ok will keep myself entertained by tweeting and checking FB. Need to be awake to monitor my sick baby. Later!

Happy Mommy

I was looking for a free youtube downloader the other day as mom wants me to save the video of her friend to her PC. Thank God I found a good one. Now mom is happy viewing her friends video on her PC. I made my mom’s day! Yay!

Ok it’s time for me to browse some digital scrapbooking galleries as I badly need mojo to create a page now. I need to remove stress from my body! This Holiday Rush is stressing me out! Thank God I have a very supportive husband who asked me if I want to go to the mall and finish my Holiday shopping. Now I can say that I am 100% done! yay! WTG me!

My ME Time

Ok here I am working at 1am.

I need to finish everything even if it is a Saturday… err… Sunday I mean. My two loves are sleeping already and this is my “ME” time. Or should I saw my working time. I can only touch my laptop for a while when my daughter is awake, so this is my time to work and catch up on my cyber world.

My gosh there are so many things happened in just a day. The CDO tragedy, politics, Christmas party photos being shared on FB, new items for sale on my favorite FB shops and so many other things. I need to breathe first and take in all of these things. Sheesh!

Ok will work first and then browse FB for some updates. Later!

Proud Friend

A friend emailed me the other day telling me her wish list for Christmas. I was asking her to list down her wish list so I will know what to give her this year. I asked her why there's no camera wish in her list. She said she got the fuji finepix that she was dreaming of last Black Friday. And I am so happy for her. And the money she used to buy for that dream camera is from her own savings. I am so proud to be her friend. She is so dear to me, her accomplishments are joy to me.

Happy Sunday!

Today we went to Embarcadero with my family. We had a great time bonding with each other. I love times like this. I can spend more time with my love ones. After a week of not seeing each other it feels great to laugh and talk to them. I wish we can do this more often.

And as much as I want to shop there I just can't because I don't have money. haha! I saw a nice dress and I wish it will fit me right now. If only I am not pregnant I know that it will fit me. =) Along with the dresses, I also saw some sports trophies which reminded me of the donation letter that was handed to me the other day. Oh well, it will be needed next week so I will just buy next weekend.

I hope your Sunday is spent with your family too.

Happy Sunday ya all!

Wedding Invitations

My sister handed to me one of the two wedding invitations on her hand last month. It was the wedding invitation of my dear classmate from elementary. It’s been years since I saw her and I am happy she still remembers me. I really would like to come but I can’t. I don’t have someone to look after Cate and second, I don’t have something to wear. I don’t like wearing dresses now that I am pregnant . I think I am having a boy as I feel ugly all the time! haha! I just let my sister give our gift for the newly weds.

Black Friday Sale

Last Black Friday I shopped a lot and I don't think I have the budget right now. Work is slow right now and I didn't save up as well. =( So it will be a sad Black Friday for me. Will look forward to the next one and I promise I will save up for that. I have a lot on my wish list right now. I hope to slash it all off next time.

Happy shopping to those who are planning to shop this coming Black Friday. I will just be contented with window shopping this time. =)

Opal Birthstone

I don't know all the monthly birth stone but I know mine and Cate's. It is only now that I learned that those who were born in October have Opal birthstone. haha! Oh well I should have given my cousin an opal birthstone jewelry instead of the simple birthday greeting that I posted on her Facebook. Oh well there will always be next year!

I am saving up for these lovely:

1 More Week To Go!

hello_kitty

And we will have a Purr-fect Hello Kitty party for my baby. I can’t wait! I am one excited mom right now! I planned this for my little one and I hope she will enjoy this party. I know she won’t appreciate it now that she is still young but she will when she grows up and see those nice pictures of her. I will be the happiest mom when the time comes that I will be seeing her browse those pictures with a smile.

Advance Happy Birthday my baby Cate!

My Friend, The Photographer

I am so happy for my friend who is now a photographer. She is so good! She told me she has now a lot of bookings including next year! I never imagined her being like that. She is not a fan of photography before. And she told me that she is a fan of raleigh wedding photographer and plans on doing wedding sessions soon. She is right now a party photographer. Tried doing wedding shoots last year and she said she loved doing it! i hope when my sister's time to marry she will be available. I wish her good luck and more bookings. I am so happy for her!

Look Mama!

DSC_6345

"Look Mama I have a baby in my tummy also!"

I laugh whenever I saw this picture of Cate. One afternoon, we we're playing at the bedroom with her ball given by her aunt and then I put it inside her onesie and she loved it. She was giggling while the ball is inside her onesie. I think she is happy to be like Mama too!

My baby is getting bigger and bigger day after day. It is just a few months ago when I gave birth to her! And now we are busy preparing for her 1st birthday! I just hope after I blinked my eyes she won't be telling me that she is applying for the Network Architect Jobs. Yikes! I will be old by then!

Broken Car Speakers

As we we're travelling this morning from Naga City our car speakers got broken. Now we need to scout for a new one. But replacement will be on hold as we don’t have money yet to buy a new one. Not a very good timing! I hope hubby is ok with it. We need to wait 2 more months to buy a new speakers. He will just have to sing so he will be entertained while driving the car. haha!

Garden Gnome

I again saw the garden gnome that was so cute this afternoon in Naga City. Whenever we pass by that house I see to it that I will see that gnome. That house garden inspires me. I hope to do it on our future garden too! I will have to scout on where is the best place to order that garden accessory soon in my place. I hope to find one. Wish me luck!

Update on Birthday Preps

What's up with my baby's first birthday preparations? I already bought her loot bags! woot! At least I have something accomplished! My next target is the invitation and the tarpaulin. I need to do the layouting and gave them printed. Buy envelops and send them first week of October. I still need a lot of things to do. Must do them one by one or else I won't accomplish them in time. I wish I have magic powers so that in just one click everything is done. Sigh!

Hosting A Halloween Party

When I visited my aunt last Thursday she told me if we can celebrate our Halloween party at our house. I want to do some Halloween decorations there too so it will be a perfect time to celebrate it there. But when I told hubby about it he was having second thoughts. He said it was too messy here. We won't be able to host a party yet. =( But who knows, October is still 2 months away from now. We can slowly remove the mess and prepare for the upcoming party!

Now time to get those boxes out of our garage!

No Phone for 4 Days

My iPhone died last month and I don't know what to do since I was so afraid to jailbreak it myself. My phone is my life and I can’t do anything without it. I was tempted to have it repaired at the local repair shop for cellphones who was also selling cell signal boosters, but due to the fee they were asking me, I was having second thoughts. A friend emailed me the steps on how to jailbreak my phone. I tried and what a surprise I did it! It was not so complicated as I was expecting it. My friends congratulated me and I am so happy. Now I don’t need to pay a very expensive fee just to jailbreak and unlocked my iPhone. Woot!

The Ikea High Chair

high chair copy

This high chair was really durable. It has been used by 4 babies in 4 years! I love that my baby Cate and the baby on my tummy can still use this one. No need to buy a new one. Saves us a lot of money and time. My brother bought this in Ikea Kuwait and was brought here via balik bayan box. Cate loves to stay in this high chair. She is so behave when she is here. I can cook, do the dishes and even sweep the floor. I hope my next baby will love this high chair as much as her Ate loves it.

Graduating Soon

Soon I will be expecting 2 graduation invitations, one from a dear friend and one from my cousin who will graduate from collage this October. That is if I am really invited but according to our latest conversations they want me to be there on their special day. I love attending graduations. It feel like I am the one graduating again. It is one of the most treasured celebrations in one’s life. I am sure this 2 celebrations will be grand as they are both an only child. Congrats to you both my dear!

Thrilled With the News

My friend messaged me on YM and was thrilled with the news that I am pregnant again. She is one of the closest friend I have and I forgot to tell her as soon as I found out. yes what a great friend I am. Thankfully she is ok with that and she understands. I am happy to have a friend like her. I hope to find more friends like her. She said she will just finish browsing the site www.wholesaleinsurance.net and then she will visit me later. I cannot wait to see her!

Misua

IMG_4407

I am craving for a Misua right now and it is just 9am!!! My goodness! I must go to the grocery and get some ingredients for this so I can cook this later for lunch. I have a very weird taste right now that I am pregnant again. My mind doesn’t cooperate with my taste buds. After eating what I think I like to eat for the day, my taste buds rejects them. =( I don’t know if I am gaining weight or not. I am always hungry. This baby inside me is getting all the food in my tummy and all the energy I have. Poor Mama!

Pregnant Again

I am now allowed to wear maternity clothes once again as I am 8 weeks pregnant already. Yes that fast! This is totally unplanned but this is what God planned for my family. I am worried at first because Cate is still a baby and I wanted to spend more time with her alone. But after some advice from friends and families i was able to accept that we will be going to be 4 already! And we are so grateful with this blessing that God gave us. Thank you Lord!

Hungry

I wanna eat dinner now. I am so hungry already! huhuhu!

Will just preheat the rice on the rice cooker and put the soup in the microwave oven and then we are ready to eat. I will continue my hunt for some cheap hp laserjet ink cartridges for our printer later. Thank God Cate is sleeping. I can finish this blog first and eat dinner with hubby. I heart my free time whenever my baby is sleeping. I can move and do house chores at the same time. I know it will take time to gain my freedom back as Cate is just 8 months old right now. I am committed to taking care of her and see to it that she grows up well. I hope I am being a good mom to her.

Ok time to go to the kitchen now and satisfy my hungry tummy. =)

Movies

Ever since Cate was born I haven't visited the movie house yet. I missed watching new movies at the big screen. Now what I do to catch up on great movies being shown is that I download them online and watch it with hubby before going to bed. I am currently downloading 3 movies and hopefully it will finish soon so I can watch it in our house. Internet here at my parents house is faster than my connection at home. Now I will just do some researching on where to buy feather flags and then I am off to look for a new movie for downloading. Tah tah!

Kusido

IMG_4353

I want to have a soup for my lunch today and thank God our maid cooked Kusido. It was really delicious I almost had my second take. But I was full already so I stopped myself. I love having a sour Kusido. I love the soup with lemon in it. There is still a few left for dinner but I din’t eat it as I wanted to try another menu that our maid prepared today. I had b-b-q for dinner. yum!

Bothered

As I was looking for the toro zero turn mowers for dad, I was distracted by the loud sound from outside. Turn out it was my husband who was testing his newly formed motorcycle. Great! Cate is now wide awake because of that. I always got bothered by loud sounds. It is really irritating to the ears! What more to a sleeping baby. I need to tell the husband to keep it low. Now I need to attend to my irritated baby. Bye for now!

Slowest to the Highest Level

My internet that is. It takes forever to load a page! I need to work plus check a lot of things right now. My time is very limited in using the internet as I am the only one taking care of my daughter. I need to take advantage of the time while she is sleeping. I need to move fast but what can I do if this internet is not cooperating? Argh!!! You are so smart SMART!

Where oh Where?

I was looking for the other day the brand name baby monitors that i got from a friend. Hubby said he kept it but cannot remember where. Oh well it will just show up when we aren't looking for it. we will just wait for it to come out. hahahahaha!

I am hungry already! And the best thing is that I am lazy to get up and get something to eat. I will just drink some water later. That will satisfy my hungry tummy.

From A Despedida Party

I was looking for some blackhawk holsters when my sister came home from a despedida party of a friend. It's already 1am! Oh well she is big already and she can handle herself now. Unlike before where dad will have to fetch her from the venue.

I am still wide awake at 1am. I am finishing some tasks because it is due already. I cannot do this if Cate is awake as I won’t finish it on time. Now I am almost finish and I will hit the sack later.

Good night/morning everyone!

A Friend’s Offer

While checking on the rv insurance site, A friend messaged me on YM that she was selling some imported brand of colonge. I am not allowed to wear any perfume or cologne as Cate’s pedia said she will just develop her asthma with that. So I opted not to wear one anymore. I just told my friend that I will pass this time. She offered to me the other time some soap and I got some as a gift for friends. My daughter’s health is more important to me now than smelling good. =)

Long Nap

Today I worked longer hours on my laptop. Cate’s afternoon nap was longer than the usual. Thank God! I was able to scrap and check my facebook account. I guess she was catching up on the lack of sleep the other night. She kept on waking up in the middle of the night. I was trying to join her to take a nap but sleep was no where to find! Ugh! I closed my eyes but nadah I am not that sleepy. So I just worked and scrapped. I wasn’t able to finish my layout but I am thankful I was given a chance to start a page. will share them here soon.

Cate’s Sleeping Pattern

Before I read these oxyelite pro side effects I would like to tell you all that I am so lucky that Cate is a good baby. She sleeps most of the time. I love it so much! I can work, check my FB, delete my unimportant emails or scrap while she is sleeping. I also have time to clean our bedroom or prepare her bathing paraphernalia. I also have time to eat my breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Thank you so much Cate for being a good baby. Mama and Papa are so happy that you belong to us. You are one amazing baby girl! We love you so much!

Breakfast Yesterday

IMG_3914

I usually wake up when Cate is awake already. That's like 6 or 7am. I take care of Cate first, change her diapers, feed her and put her back again to sleep. After that I will take my breakfast and go online.

Yesterday morning my routine got messed up when I slept late that night and hubby took Cate when she woke up. So I think I got up at 8am, went online and surf the web for the look of an exam table while Cate is sleeping again. Why I was looking for an exam table? It was on my dream! I wanted to see what it looks like. Maybe that way I can remember why there is an exam table on my dream. haha!

Oh the photo above is making me hungry now at 2:30am! Yaiks!

They Left Us

My sister with my brother’s family went to the mall and they left us. Well, we opted to be left behind by the way. I don’t have money to spend that’s why. haha! And oh my husband is working on a weekend. Ugh!

I already did the grocery the other day and the pending “to buy” on my list can wait till next week anyways. My sister’s agenda at the mall is to bring her puppy named Xia for a vaccine and my brother’s family will take Nadine, their child, to the arcade. They will also check an exam table for my sister in laws friend. And I have work to finish because it is the deadline today. Will just visit the mall next weekend. Enough of being sad about being left at home. I love being online! =)

Something Borrowed Movie

I love the book so much so I patiently waited for the movie which was shown in theaters last May 6th. I cannot leave my baby so I just downloaded on the internet. It was not a good quality but for the sake of my curiosity I watched it. And I LOVE IT!!! You should watch it too!

Something-Borrowed-Movie-Poster

 Here is the plot of the movie:

Ginnifer Goodwin plays Rachel, an unhappy, single, talented attorney working in a New York law firm. Rachel drinks too much on her 30th birthday and wakes up to find herself in bed with Dex (Colin Egglesfield}, the man whom she has had a crush on since law school. The problem is that he is also her best friend Darcy’s (Kate Hudson) fiance. Relationships are tested while a long-time trusted friend, Ethan (John Krasinski), stands by Rachel with a secret of his own The film also stars Colin Egglesfield, John Krasinski and Steve Howey under the direction of Luke Greenfield.  (from http://www.starmometer.com/2011/02/19/something-borrowed-movie-poster-trailer/)

My sister is now watching it. Will ask her verdict later. Time to look for a coogi as a gift for my dear friend who will be celebrating his 28th birthday next month. Coz I might forget to get it for him.

Bye!

Happy Saturday!

Today is so hot! (the sweaty kind)

I took a bath at 9am and now it’s 10:30 and my body is sticky already! Gee! I have to take a bath again later for sure!

Cate will take a bath now because I am sure she feels hot as well. The weather is crazy!!!

Instagram Love

instagram

I heart instagram so much! But right now I don't have wifi here at our house so I am not able to use my iphone to connect to the internet. I miss posting everyday photos there. I cannot wait to have a wifi connection here or go to my parents house on weekends. Thanks to the web version of the app, I can at least view the photos being shared there by my friends, comment and like it. That way I am not missing that much on the latest news on instagram. If you haven’t tried this app then I definitely recommend it.

I Cannot Live Without…

Hubby and I talked about things important in our lives. And I told him that I cannot live without my laptop and the internet. He never answered me back but I guess his answer will be his cellphone. You won't see him without his cellphone. I told him that I will Sell Gold if he leave his cell behind. But I don't have gold much more he will never ever leave his cellphone behind. haha! I am such n idiot doing a bet like that. Anyways, My two loves are sleeping already and I should be joining them now but I need to work first so can get some new clothes for my baby dear. I cannot wait to shop for her once again. I am one excited mom!

Anne’s 5th Birthday

DSC_9145

This is our maid’s daughter Anne. She celebrated her 5th birthday last April 28th. I got her a cake and bought some bihon for her mom to cook. It was just a simple celebration but she enjoyed it so much. Nadine is her only guest but it was a great party. They played until evening. I am so happy that I made someone’s day happy. Happy birthday Anne!

Weekend at my Parents House

We always see to it that we spend time with my family every week. I love going at my parents house to catch up with them. I love hearing stories on how’s their week went. All of my family members are there. My sister who is always out is present too! We exchanged stories on the things that happened to us and I love it that I got to know that their week went good. My sister and I talked about the royal wedding. She haven’t seen the entire wedding coverage so I told her some observations I got. She told me about the personal injury lawyers Tucson later on and I was like “I don’t know anything about that topic. Change it please. haha!” I had a great weekend spent with my family and I cannot wait for next weekend. It will be another day of catching up and bonding time.

Trip to the Grocery

We went to SM save more this afternoon to get some groceries. I am with Cate, my hubby and our maids daughter. I love getting our groceries at Save More. It has less people shopping there and lots of stuff that I cannot find at the mall. Also there are fresh meat and fish which hubby and I love. Parking is not that good though as space is very limited. We did our groceries for an hour I think and that was really fast for us. I heart this store!

Bored Who?

We are back from our Holy Week Vacation. We are out for 4 days and that was really long, specially for my husband. Hubby was not complaining though but I know he is sometimes bored. Thank God there is a place there who has billiards with complete billiard supplies. He sometimes play and sometimes just watch to entertain himself. Thank God he is not that bored there while I am busy bonding with my relatives.

Gorgeous Dresses

My niece Nadine will be a flower girl for the cousin of my sister in law. They will get married on April 16th. My SIl showed a photo of Nadine this evening and she is soooo cute! Too bad I cannot share it here as it is on my SIL's phone. I wonder what are the bridesmaid dresses. The dress of the flower girl is gorgeous already what more to the bridesmaids. I hope my SIL will take lots and lots of photos so I can see those dresses too. I cannot attend the wedding as I need to take care of Cate.

Beauty Help

Anyone can give me some skin care tips so I will at least have a healthy skin? I was having problems lately on why my face right now is getting a lot of pimples. Oh well I am the only one to blame as I never take care of my skin that much. I always go to sleep without washing my face. Ewwww! I am too lazy to go inside the bathroom and wash my face. And even if I do remember, I will just wash it with water and that's it.

I am thinking about how I will look like when I reach old age and I am so afraid that I will look terrible. I badly need help!

Nikon F50 Camera

IMG_3368

My sister owns this old film camera. She used this when she's still in college and took a subject for photography. She was the one who taught me how to use my camera. She told me that it is so nice to develop a photo inside the dark room and that she misses doing it. We hope to find a dark room so she can develop great photos again. A friend of hers would like to join too! I never experienced going inside the dark room so this will be a first to me and I am so excited already! Now all we need to do is to ask around if there is available dark room with developing materials in it. And let us use the room for a day or two. My excitement is the same as getting a new PS3 Move. haha!

I heart Adobo

IMG_3393

I super love dried adobo. Specially if our maid cooked it. I will have extra rice whenever we have adobo on our table. I can also cook this one. My MIL taught me how. And I am happy that adobo is my specialty. Though I cannot promise that it tastes good. =) haha!

Ok now I am hungry again. Will just look for an alternative on the adobo. It’s 12am already and adobo is not a good midnight snack!

Photos

elibby-11

My sister in law always updates us with their life in the US through photos. It feels like we live next to them even if they live miles and miles away whenever I see their photos. I remember one photo with my brother in it suited in his nursing scrubs before going to work. He was doing this very weird pose and I was laughing really hard about it. That photo made my day!

Photos are a big part in communicating these days. Even if you don’t talk to your love one orally, send them just photos and they will know how’s your life. If you are doing good or not.

Backing Up!

backup-to-dvd

I am backing up all my photos and scrapbook kits on DVDs now. I am so afraid the other day when my laptop died. I was thinking this is the end of my 2 year old laptop . But when I looked at the charger it was not connected. Thank God the cause of the blackout is only the battery. I got panicked there! So even if my laptop is fine I am backing up my files. What if it is not the battery that is the problem? All my important files will be gone in a minute. Yaiks!

Pray for Japan

With all the things that are happening in Japan right now all we can do is pray. Only God knows when these calamities will stop. I just hope that 2012 is not true. I am so scared just by thinking of it!

I watch CNN to get updates on Japan. Everything is so heartbreaking! I saw some people crying and looking for their love ones. And for sure they will need the disability application later on for those who was injured my the Tsunami.

We can never tell what will happen in the future all we need to do is to help each other to move on and pray.

God Bless us all. God Bless Japan.

New Point and Shoot

panasonic_lumix_lx5-529x400

Not mine though it’s my moms. =)

My mom wanted to have a new camera and she was asking me what are my recommendations. So I told her to get the LX5. This camera have great reviews plus almost all of my twitter friends have this camera. And they told me that it is worth buying. I wanted to own one too but since mom bought this already I will just get the newly released Olympus Xz-1. It is still pricey and not yet available on my favorite camera store. I will also wait for the price to lower down a little bit. =)

Birthday Plans for my Catie

Now that Cate's baptism is now finished, I can finally start planning her 1st birthday party which will be in October. I am already looking for ideas for her theme. I was thinking of a princess theme but it is too common already. I want something never done before. But the problem is if I find a theme that is unique will I be able to find giveaways and other stuffs for my baby's birthday? And also will I be able to fund it? Might try the personal loans that a friend suggested a few months ago. Gosh! all these party planning is harassing me already to think that the event is still happening in 7  months! Ok time to rest my mind first in this early planning, I have a lot of chores to do. Later!

The Impact Wrench

DSC_1201

I asked a friend to buy this for my husband as he kept on borrowing my uncle's impact wrench. It arrived last month and hubby was so happy about it. I am not yet sure if he already used it. The last time I asked him he said he doesn't want to use it yet as it might get dirty. LOL! My husband is so funny!

He plans to try the camacho triple maduro buy online as he wants to give it to his friend who is celebrating his 38th birthday in April. Men are really more on either gadgets, tools or cigars.

Baptized

IMG_9068

Cate is now a Christian.

She was baptized last February 27th at St. Jude Thaddeus Church in Legazpi City. The celebration went well. Guests enjoyed the event and we are so glad they did. Kids enjoyed as well. They played with the balloons at the reception after eating. I super love the decoration of the venue which mom made. Thanks mom!

I cannot wait for the next party planning which will be Cate’s 1st birthday! And it will be in 7 months! Yaiks! I am already looking for possible theme for her party.

Recent Me

Yaiks! I saw a recent photo of me and I badly need acne scar treatments. There are scars which I never noticed before. Now they are getting larger and larger. Multiplying and invading my cheeks! My smooth face during my pregnancy are gone now. I am so sad. If only I can be pregnant all my life. hahahha! Oh well I know that with the treatment I will be fine soon.

Mom’s Bake Mac

IMG_2635

This is my mother's yummy bake mac. You can skip taking phenphedrine first and have a bite on this one. haha! I requested mom to make one last monthly birthday celebration of Cate. And I am so happy when she started making it in the afternoon. I was so excited to taste it! Due to unavailability of ground beef, mom used corned beef instead but the taste is still good! I loved it! Hubby loved it too! I asked mom how to make this one as I am planning of making it as well when we return to our house soon. This can be a good snack for me and the husband. Oh well, this food is making me hungry, I will check the kitchen now if mom cooked dinner already.  I need to stop craving for this! There’s no available ingredient to make this right now.

I Love My Iphone!

iphone_home

Before I read about the pre workout supplements let me say that I am so loving my iPhone right now. I am so thankful I have it. It gives me access to internet while taking care of Cate. Specially when I am breastfeeding her. I am still in the loop with the cyber world even if I am busy. You all know that I am an internet addict and I can’t live without the internet. I stay online 24/7. It is my world and my life is in it.

And I super love the Instagram app! I can take photos of my everyday life and post it in twitter, Facebook and Flickr, so my friends are still updated with what’s happening to my life as a wife, mom, daughter and friend. I guess I can’t live without my iPhone.

Why Babies Cry While Sleeping?

Do you really get scared to hear that your baby is crying while sleeping in the nighttime, but when you go into her room and you find that she is having a comfortable sleep? Most of the mothers really get confused that what is all this? Here, we are looking to make you calm and relaxed that baby’s cry in her sleep is not a matter to get worried. It is a common exercise of all the babies and it is not a matter of big concern for the parents.

Now let us reveal you the main reasons why babies are found crying during their sleeping hour as this is important for your newborn baby care. One thing must be very clear in your mind that cry, laugh, giggle, talk etc are very common observations during infants’ sleep. As we all know that the first couple of years of the life of a baby show a very rapid ratio of their growth and most of the growth occur in the sleeping time, therefore it is very normal for a baby to cry while sleeping.

One of the main reasons for their cry in sleep is due to the pain that they feel due to the growing teeth. It is a very painful experience for every baby, so it is natural that they will cry feeling this pain.

If you have found that this is not the reason why your child is crying. Then the other possible reason for crying may be the nightmare. There is always a chance that your baby is having painful dream that is becoming the cause of her cry. Whatever may be the reason, you should not worry because it is common in all babies and not a thing for what you need to get worried.

Now I know why Cate cries while sleeping. I am so worried she might be in hurt that's why she is crying. My poor baby. Maybe she is just having a nightmare or dreaming on the lipozene side effects that mom is blabbering about the other day. haha! Don’t worry baby I am not yet trying to take some diet pills. =)

We Matched!

DSC_1396

Look! The colors and patterns in our clothes matched! I didn't noticed that Cate and I are wearing almost the same clothes that day. Hubby told me about it and I was shocked that we really matched! I love the color combination in the photo. I love it! Hubby took the photos and as I view it in the camera I was already thinking of what patterned paper to use when I scrap this photo. hahahha! Talk about being a scrapper mom.

And oh did you notice Cate’s legs? Makes me want to eat them as I am imagining that they are chicken drumsticks! hahahha! Never mind my thighs I need usp labs oxyelite pro for me to slim down. LOL!

Touch Screen

I love borrowing dad's iPad. I love playing smurfs in it! He got it a few months ago. And he loves it to bits! How I wish I have one too or the blackberry Playbook. But I have my iphone so I am fine for now. But bigger screen will be the best. I need to save up for that as it is my wish for Christmas. I hope Santa is reading this post so He can give my wish on Christmas.

Over Time

I should be sleeping now as Cate is in dreamland already. I need to sleep when she is sleeping so I can have the energy for tomorrow. She is getting bigger and bigger my back is aching already at night. So I should rest and sleep to charge. But my tasks are waiting for me to finish as deadline will be tomorrow and I also need to find the best radar detectors for a friend who is asking for a link on where to get it. Sigh! this is the life I should be happy with it.

Juan For All, All For Juan

I was so touched by the story of the winning entry on Eat Bulaga's Juan for all, All for Juan today. The person who was picked is a graduating student and he is already 28 years old. He went back to schooling as he wanted to have those in demand technology jobs someday. He wasn’t able to take his exam yesterday because they don’t have money for his tuition. He was so lucky to be picked today. Now he can pay his tuition and take his exam tomorrow. I am so thankful for programs like what Eat Bulaga is doing. They give chances to poor people to hope and live. Thank You Eat Bulaga!
