I Forgot, Sorry!

I remember when we went to Davao during my brother’s wedding a friend emailed me for a favor. We will have a meet up that same day when he emailed me so I told him to repeat his favor later. He told me to buy dutch master cigars but I never paid attention to what he is telling me so I forgot it. So nothing for him when I went home. There’s nothing like that in Davao anyways. I just said sorry I forgot his request.

Simple Celebration

My birthday is near and I can't wait for it to celebrate in Manila with my family. I don't expect hubby to buy roses or any expensive gift for me as spending time with him is what matters most to me. A simple eat out will be ok. And to think we are saving up for Cate’s 1st birthday party in October, I won’t ask for any gift now. A smile on my daughter’s face on her birthday will be the greatest gift for me and my husband. I am so excited for my birthday. I can’t wait!

But if given a chance that hubby bought me flowers then I will gladly accept it. Flowers are simple gift for women and they will always appreciate it.

Baby #2

We are so happy to share the news that we are expecting baby #2 already. I am now 8 weeks pregnant. I was so worried at first because of the gap between the baby and Cate. I am afraid that I might not be  able to give the attention to two kids. But with the help of friends and families I was able to accept the fact that this is it, I am having two kids now. And we wholeheartedly accept this wonderful blessing from God. Cate is now an Ate na! Kinda not yet used to calling my first born Ate but it sure does fits her. She is the perfect ate for her baby brother/sister. We cannot wait to finally meet you my little peanut. I hope I will have a healthy pregnancy and no complications. Please pray for me.

New Floors soon

I was thinking of having a laminated floors for our living room up to the kitchen. But I am having trouble finding a good shop who laminate floors. Maybe will just have to tile the floors now. Hubby will also agree with me. Just thinking about the expenses this will really take a big part on our budget. Or we will just cancel this until the baby arrive early next year. I cannot wait for our house to have a new floors. The kids will surely love playing in the living room soon.

Naughty Kid

My friends daughter is so naughty. The other day her mom told me that she played with her mom’s make up and scattered them all over the carpet. She is now learning games that are not appropriate to her age too. I am bothered. I hope my mommy friend will take action with her daughter’s actions. I hope her attitude is nothing serious. I am thinking of ADHD right now. Knock on wood I hope not!

Motorcycle Ride After Two years

After almost 2 years I finally was able to ride a motorcycle again. Well that was last month when I am not yet pregnant. Yes you read that right, I am pregnant again for baby # 2. Cate will be an Ate na. And now I will miss riding a motorcycle once again as I am banned from riding it again. Maybe after 2 years again. huhuhu!

This is my sisters Suzuki Hayate scooter. We borrowed it to go to the motocross event near our place. It was fun to go to a place where you haven’t been to. A new discovery is always an amazing experience.

My Simple Friend

A friend will be celebrating her birthday next week and I am cramming now on what to give her. I was planning to give her the gift basket special that I saw online. I think it will be a good gift for her. And good thing she is the type who is ok with everything. I am so happy that she is my friend. Not a very high standard lady. Pretty and simple too. See you soon my friend!

New Laptop For Sis

The laptop that my sister is using is acting up already. It won't boot up when it is unplugged. I tried using it the other day and it just made me cranky. Oh well she should replace it with a new one or get the mini portables that we saw at the mall. Better to use a good and pricey one than the not so good in quality. Thank God my laptop is still in good condition (knock on wood).

No Gift

We had a buffet lunch to celebrate Father's Day last Sunday. I was looking for some unique fathers day gifts but I ran out of time. So I gave nothing for dad. I will just make up for him this week. Will still try to look for a unique gift and give it as a late gift. Better late than never as they said. haha! What a very good daughter I am! But visiting the site I linked above gave me an idea on what to give to my dad. Will browse the site more. Latah!

Aching Body

Before I say good night to all of you and hit the sack, I will just finish my rv emergency roadside assistance hunt so I can forward whatever I find to my cousin who is in need of this matter. I am tired already. My back is aching now. I need to lay my body to bed so I have the energy for tomorrow. my two lovies are sleeping already and I wanna join them now. So tah tah and good night for now.

Friend’s Graduation

I saw my dear friend's graduation picture awhile ago over at her FB page. And it is so nice to see her wearing her toga. She is blooming and looking great now. She was my classmate before but she stopped and she was determined to finish college. Now she’ll reach her dream in no time.

I am so proud of her. She finally made it! Now I am off to get two curtis and co watches, one for me and one for my dear friend. She deserve this wonderful gift. Congrats my dear! Mwuah!

Weekend Lunch

We always have a good family lunch during weekends prepared by my mom. We always visit them for some bonding and catch up time. Mom prepares lots and lots of food during these times. We are all present at my parents house. It is so nice to have time for family. I love my family so much!

The photo above is the sample of what menu my mom prepares every Saturday lunch. Yummy isn’t it? And lots of variety too!

After 45 Years

Ok now I am alarmed that I am not losing my pregnancy weight! After seeing a friend's photo today and she was amazing! Two months after she gave birth and she is on they way to her pre pregnancy weight! Waaaahhh!!! I am way behind already! I blame it on the delicious foods that is served by our maid. And the weekend gathering at my parents house. She cooks yummy yummy foods and I just can't resist diving in them. hahahaha! Does this say "hcg platinum is here to help?" Nah, I will just be happy with my current weight. For sure I will lose them sometime. Maybe after 45 years. hahahah!

New Dresses for Cate

I bought another set of cute dresses for my baby Cate yesterday and it arrived today. Weee!!! I cannot wait to try these on Cate. I love online shopping! If only I can get a payday advance then I will have a shopping spree for her once again. hihiih! I love seeing my baby wearing different dresses when going out. It is joy to me to see my baby is pretty in pictures too. =)

I Knew I Loved You

Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
and there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than
a little crazy but I believe
[chorus:]
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
There's just no rhyme or reason
only this sense of completion
and in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I found my way home
I know that it might sound more than
a little crazy but I believe
[repeat chorus]
A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I found you
[repeat chorus to fade]

This is my song for my little Catie. I love her so much! This song is perfect for my love for her. She is one amazing baby and I love her to bits. Thank you God for giving her to us. We are so lucky!

Graduation Gifts

It is school time once again on my part of the world and to those who got their personalized graduation gifts last March will be put on use this school year. Whether it may be a ball pen, notebook, bag or even an umbrella. For sure they are going to be taken out of its boxes and put into good use. I love it when I get personalized stuff. The recent item I got was a personalized gift tag. I already used them when I gave gift to Jun’s god daughter. And the impression of the receiver? Of course they love it! =)

Holy Week Vacation

We went to Garchitorena, Camarines Sur last Holy Week. We stayed at my grandparents house for 4 days. Yes that long. No internet for me for 4 days! And I love it! I got to rest and be away with my laptop. I just spend my day with my family and relatives. Went to the beach and took lots of pictures. And oh I eat a lot during our vacation so I expect a few gained weight now. I also talked to my cousin about the creatine supplements he is taking. Been wanting to ask him about it. Our vacation is the best. I enjoyed it and I hope to go back there next Holy Week.

Hello Mayon!

This was taken at our backyard last April 26, 2011.

I am so proud that I live near the majestic Mayon. And I am happy to see her almost everyday. I say hi to her whenever I got a chance. It is pure joy to be able to watch this beautiful scene at our own backyard!

Hello Mayon! It is so nice to see you again today!

2 Step Tool

It is always a problem to me to close the window at the kitchen area. It was too high for me! Hubby must be thinking he has a 6 foot tall wife. hahahha! I guess I need to buy one of the 2 step stools that I saw at the hardware section at the mall now. I hate getting a chair just to close that window. I hope to find a cheaper one as I have no budget for this. Good Luck to me!

Yawn!

I hate it when you have to do lots of things and you are so sleepy already! Hmp! I have lots of work to do and here I am yawing every 3 minutes! Grrrr!!! My eye’s are dropping already. Someone get me a toothpick!!! I cannot think well if I am sleepy so I might just postpone doing this things until tomorrow. I might be productive by then.

Ok one more task and I am hitting the sack.
