Merry Christmas everyone!  Summer and I had a very low-key Christmas celebration this year despite it being her first. What's more important is that we are together. My husband won't be home to celebrate but we already talked on the phone earlier today. He will be home in about a month's time so I guess we will have a delayed celebration if we...

We attended church service last Sunday and decided to go around a bit before going home. Angel and Sam accompanied us. The weather yesterday was better compared to the other days of the week but it rained again around 4PM. Good thing we were already inside the car on the way to Powerplant Mall from BGC when it started to drizzle.  We walked...

This blog post is an offshoot of a planned blog post that I decided not to post because I still believe that sometimes we need to choose our battles and that if we don't have anything nice to say then we better shut up yeah? “Someday, everything will make perfect sense. So for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears, and...

The first time I watched this commercial of a German supermarket, I was a mess. I did not cry, I wept. There was something in the plot that pulled my heartstrings and I am sure it will pull yours too. The ad shows an elderly man walking inside his home following his dog with his grocery items and then looked out the window...

Not all participants showed up for the afternoon session so it was a small class albeit an entertaining one. One of the participants volunteered as a model. Here are a few snaps from the event. I didn't take as much because I was trying...

It's just over 2 months to go before we celebrate Summer's first birthday. We are excited and I think I am the most excited because I am itching to start the planning. Well, I have started planning already but not that extensive yet.  Before my husband left for work overseas, we agreed on the budget and we decided to have the party in...

Before our scheduled trip to Denmark in August, nagpacheck-up muna kami sa pedia ni Summer and she advised na once 6 months na si baby, we can start feeding her with solid food na. She recommended for us to start with watery food like lugaw and then eventually upgrade to other type of food. She also informed us to avoid starting her on...

Napansin ko na this past few months simula noong bumalik kami dito sa Pilipinas from our Denmark trip na masyadong tumaas ang expenses namin sa grocery. Medyo nakaligtaan ko kasing sundin yung mga strategies na ginagawa ko dati para makatipid kahit papano at maiwasan magtapon ng pagkain. Napadami din yung mga impulse buys namin. Anyway, I want to share 5 smart ways that...

We found out I was pregnant a day before my birthday last year. I was already feeling so bugnutin and laging maganang kumain and napapasigaw ako kapag tinatanggal ko ang aking bra or masagi ko lang ng konti. My boobs really felt so tender, I was almost on the verge of crying. I even told my husband to not touch it, not even...

Excited talaga ako i-update itong blog kaya second post agad on the same day. Very inspired ako to finally start a blog na focused sa isang niche hindi kagaya ng isa kong blog na halo-halo na. I also decided na gawing Taglish (Tagalog nd English) yung language para parang casual lang, parang nagkukuwentuhan lang tayo. Nagdecide ako na isulat ito ngayon kasi kakabayad...
