A promise...

I have so much bitterness in me and that because I was betrayed and let down by them. I had so much hope and love for them but in return they just disappoint me. Last year was not a great year for me but there were some highlight and one of it was, I'd expected my 3rd child. I was so grateful! Despites of so many trials came in my life I am able to overcome with it with a smile. They apologised anyway and so Apology accepted but I refused talking to them just to avoid any more arguments. My heart is aching and partly is because I missed them. So, for what had happen recently, I realise that its about time to let go of any anger inside me and live a life happily with full of love and forgiveness. I love my family back in Philippines. I have to understand that we are only a human and can't be perfect. So, as a promise I'll have to start making up with them and hopefully this could start for a good happy year again. As a way of making up I am going to send them each a gift and for my parents I simply will give them each of this discount prescription glasses and hopefully they'll like it. I'll see what lensesrx.com has to offer these days. I see they have loads of discounted prescriptive glasses. Definitely the best online dealers there is....

A message for a reason...

I'm shocked of how many messages I've got in all of my networking sites. I didn't realised I have that many people who loves me and care for me. I'm truly honoured for their love and care. But one of the so-many messages is my long lost friend who happened to remember me this time and you know why? Its because she needed something from me. She asked if I know any free insurance quotes online that she could possibly compare prices. Unbelievable really! As simply thing as that and she needed me to do it. Of course, there are tons and to be honest she could simply research it on her own. But anyway, I kind of expect that of her already and I know she's not gonna change so, here we go. A message for a reason, hehe. Such a life!

Its good to be home.........

I felt like prisoner for 5 days staying in a room with only television and my baby who entertain me, not even a sunlight and I'm bored to death. Anyway, today I had a chance to visit home for few hours and it feels like heaven. Soon as I came out to our room and see the sunlight and be able to breath that fresh air, my gosh I was like how wonderful it is. But in 20 minutes I got to go back again and I'm so praying and hoping to be home on Tuesday. I want my baby to celebrate his first month at home with his Ate and Kuya and of course Daddy. I trust in God and I know he'll answer my prayer and I know HE is the great healer. God is great!

Unwell

Glad that I finally done researching about exterior shutters and I could share it to a friend later. She asked me about it and told her I'll do a research first to make sure it is what I am thinking about and yeah, I was right. Just waiting for her to online and share about what I've found. It's pretty interesting stuff!

Anyway, just an update of my newborn. He is doing alright though a little unwell because of his colic. His under the weather since this morning and couldn't sleep. But now thankfully he is fast asleep in his crib. He is feeding well though but still I can stop worrying about. Just rang hubby and he is on his way back home. Ugh, I've created a collage pics of him when he was 13 days old. Sooo cute and adorable, can't deny it. I'm enjoying my newborn and thinking how time flies, really.

Hearts Day 2010 @ Home only

This was our Hearts day celebration on Sunday. We just stayed home because we have a little one to look after. He is only 11 days old and it would not be suitable for him the outing plus the crowds. I haven't even been out since unless hubby will take me or he is with is because I couldn't deal the tantrums and the noise of my boys. If only my daughter then I would go 100%. Anyway, hubby and the kids manage to made it special for me. They brought us breakfast in bed as well as flowers, chocolates and a very special gift which is a necklace with an engraved initial of my kids in it which can be seen below the 2nd photo. I was thoroughly suprised and yet I love it. I didn't give in return to hubby for I haven't been out. But I could have buy him something online but there we go, better prefer next time. Anyway, my greatest gift are my kids whom are my life and my everything and spending Valentines with them all are priceless. Here's our Valentines photoshoot...more pictures in my Photoalbum.

Ugh, I gotta go now and get ready because I promised to take the kids out even just in the town because there is a sunshine today, miraculously and better to take advantage of it. Just wanna check one more thing before I log off. Hubby's weight loss supplements are all gone and he needs more.

Just thinking ahead....

Its already 16 passed 2 am here and still I am wide awake. Just done feeding the little guy and now just put him back to his crib, not totally asleep yet but getting there. I'm also going to bed pretty soon because I am too tired. It has been like this for a week now. Just have a quick check on phisoderm soap because I might buy some for my next package. I have to start shopping now so when my ordered box arrive I just have to fill it straight away. I usually get a super Jumbo and its really hard to fill and it'll sit in my kids bedroom for like 3 to 4 months so I'm going to be more efficient this time. Anyway, this is for now I gotta go to bed for its getting too late and my eyes are getting heavier already. I got to get up early because the health visitor is set to visit us today. Ciao:)

Exchange rate Sucks!

My younger sisters exam is on this Friday and I haven't send the money yet its because I am waiting and hoping for the rate to rise up even for couple of peso but instead its going down even more. It sucks big time! Now I am blaming myself for not sending it couple weeks ago when the rate was still a bit higher. It was about 75 plus and now its down to 72, grrrrrrrrrrrr. I'm so annoyed and I wish I send it then. Never mind, lesson learn for me. I shouldn't gamble and just send the money whenever is needed. Well, tomorrow high or low I gotta send it otherwise my sister will miss her semi-final.

Sleepless nights it is...

I have noticed few acne on my face this past few days. I think its because of my sleepless nights. My newborn is suffering early colic and couldn't sleep because he is too uncomfortable in passing winds or poops. I had to stay awake and watch him as he is straining every minute. I hate to see him in pain but he doesn't really cry or bother by it. We had the midwifes visit and she told us everything is normal for a newborn and I just have to keep drinking water and less fruit juices.

Anyway, this past few nights of being awake had cause me pimples and spots. I realised I had to do something with it before it get worst. Though its only few in my face but still I want to apply acnefree products soon as possible. I should have used it everyday but instead I just wash my face with water because a friend of mine told me that pure water is the best acne treatment. However, its not true and I should get a proper acne treatment.

Bonding time with Ate Kk

Sunday morning (7th of Feb 2010) - was our 2 kids bonding moment. Ate Kk simply love her little brother and she couldn't get enough of him. Everytime she woke up she always gives him a kiss, a cuddle and a little time to play. Also in the night time before she goes to bed she always give him a goodnight kiss. She is truly a sweetie and big heart Ate. William also loving the attention from big Sissy and in return he give her a smile which made them both happy. Look at how sweet is the big Ate towards his little brother. Simply lovable:)

I wanna lose weight....

I just gave birth to my 3rd child about 11 days ago and looking at my bulging, soggy belly it makes me wonder if I could get back to my normal weight again. Hubby said, I will! No doubt about it. Though it takes time, like 4-6 months maybe if not more. Also, there is always this weight loss products that I can rely anytime if I have trouble losing weight. I know its too early to worry about it now but I have to plan ahead, don't I? Well, as of the moment I dropped down to 60 kilos from 80 and I think that is a good start. Also, I suppose to enjoy my newborn and make the most of our mother and son bonding before I worry about losing weight. There are loads of time for me to think about diet pills and for sure I don't look that horribly fat yet.

An Acne treatment is what they've ask me.........

I finally chatted my family back in Philippines the other day. My younger sister buzz me and told me that Mum and Dad just arrived in the city. So we decided to get online together so we could chat with live cam. My parents were very happy to finally see their latest grandchild. Mum was a bit emotional (tear-eyed) and I guess it was tears of joy. I told them the birth stories and how easy it was compare to my 2nd child. Mum said that's because I had plenty of exercise. It certainly helps!

Anyway, while I chatted to my younger sis I heard my older sis in the background as we live chatted about asking me if I remember the OLAY facial wash I've sent them in my previous package. And my replied was, "kind of" because I couldn't quite remember which one was it. They've said it was the best acne treatment they ever had and they loved it. Too bad it got used up for about 4 months because it was like 10 of them had to share for only 3 bottles. So, I said I try next time because they just missed my package this time because it's been picked up already about 2 weeks ago. So, I might do another package in the Summer and I'll send them one for sure.

Father and Son Moments

Here's my mag-ama on the 5th of February (Friday morning) right after little fella's newborn check-up. We got up so early for little fella's appointment but still manage to get late. Though hubby set the alarm clock. I was pretty much asleep and getting up and getting dress was the least thing I could think of. So, we didn't arrived on time. The traffic was not helping at all. Plus, we didn't find the clinic straight away and we had to walk around the building for half an hour. But anyway, it went fine and the midwife who checked our boy was super nice. She made our day! She was soft spoken, kind and entertaining. She explained everything to us. So, I'm thankful to know that I deliver a very fine healthy boy. Anyway, it took us half an hour only in the clinic and we headed back home but had to stop by at MCDO to get some brunch though. Right after we arrived home, Daddy and little fella decided to take a nap as they were both very tired from staying up most of the night. I took some snaps while they were in the bed and I thought they look very cute together. Sweet:)

Nah, gotta keep those guys happy for we have our deal tomorrow's Valentines photoshoot or else they'll play up or worst mess up my plan. But before I go and log off I shall share my 2 precious layout that I made this early morning. A valentines theme and I wish everyone a wonderful hearts day! Enjoy your celebration:)

Got to take things easy........

It has been 10 days since I gave birth to my son. For me, it sounded too quick and my son's growth chart is shooting up like a trouper. Also, I have been very active since day 1 as I don't really fell that exhausted or tired. Everyone are surprised of how quick I recover from birth pain. I am just lucky and blessed this time for the delivery was fairly quick and easy. I have done laundry and ironing already and hubby has been back to his work too. His company needed his presence in this most intense moment. They are about to face the biggest presentation in couple weeks time and I hope and pray that everything goes well for them all. Because I know how hard it is to find a job these days because of the recession and passing resumes are also major pain in the head. So, hopefully hubby and the company where he works will stay strong and will win the biggest contract they are hoping to get for the least 6 years. It could help us and to many other employees. All they have to do is take things easy rather than panic and surely they'll achieve their company's aim.

The long wait is over............

for my 3rd child is finally born! It was on the 3rd of February 2010 about 5am when I started to have contraction and labour pain. I got up from the bed for I couldn't bare the pain anymore. I find it out that standing and walking around the house are ways to ease the pain. It works for couple of hours and when the pain get more intense and uncontrollable I couldn't think of anything else but pain reliever/drugs. I couldn't wait to be in the hospital and push it out.

It was about quarter to 8am when my husband and daughter finally woke up. It's her breakfast time before she goes to school. I stopped my ironing and sat down in my PC chair but pain get even worst. It took hubby a minute to realised that I was in labour already. Gosh, he was a slow burner, really. He was tense yet happy and anxious. He rang up his Mother to arrange for a baby sitter. Luckily, Tito (a friend) dropped by and was so kind to asked if its okay for Kath to come with them. It was just a perfect timing and off they went.

Half an hour later my Mother in-law arrived to pick up our 4 yrs old son. Then, half an hour later, we to drive to the hospital because I couldn't take the pain any longer. Its about 9:45am when we arrived and we are told to wait in the Lounge while waiting for few bits and pieces of paper works and at the same time find us an empty Delivery suite. But unfortunately we have to wait a little bit longer and while waiting they put us in our temporary room. However, it was sooner that we thought that the baby will come out. I suddenly have this urged to push and it didn't even take more pushing when the Midwife's finally saw the head coming out. She send the message out that the baby will be out soon and just not bother for Delivery suite anymore. An it was just a push away when the baby finally came out and cried........whoaaaaaaaaaaaa - a real sweet innocent voice is all I can hear! I look and stare at hubby and saw a tearful Daddy once again and for sure it was a tear of joy to finally met his another son.

A beautiful moment that is priceless! So...it wasn't that bad after all. He wasn't that big as everyone thought he would be- only an ounce to 8lbs. Basically, similar size to my 2nd child. But for a small build woman like me he was quite a size! Thanks God for we're both in good hands, safe and sound.

Then, we decided not to stay for a night because I was excited to see my 2 kids faces when they finally see their younger brother that they been excitedly waiting for. So, we were discharged with the Midwive's permission 4 hours after delivery. It was that quick, really! Thanks be to God! Here's just few of his first snapshots..........

House Hunting

We are house hunting at the moment and as plan we should be moving out this summer, hopefully. We have 3 kids and 2 bedroom flat ain't big enough and we do need garden most of all just for the kids to let loose. We already saw couple that we do like and we think its likely to be still there in time that we are actually buying. For now, we are waiting for our window to be done and replace so we could put ours in to the market by next month. We are so determine and desperate to move in to a bigger house. The kids needs more space and the hubby needs his own office so he can work properly at home when he needs to. Like now, after I given birth to our 3rd child he is likely to be working more at home for the next few weeks and in the coming months as well so he could also help me out a bit with the kids. We are just hoping that our plan of moving will happen this summer for we couldn't live on this small cubicle anymore. I wish its easier to sell our small flat too. Fingers cross, really! Anyway, I've heard about this great real estate in Santa Barbara where my friends live. She told me how easy to buy and sell properties out there. If only we can migrate easily - I would go for it, no doubt!

A daughter that made us Proud:)

I keep saying this but the fact is, we are just proud of our daughter's achievement. Kath is doing extra-ordinarily at her school and she accomplish way higher that we expect her to be. We don't want her to just do study all the time besides she is only an 8 yrs old who needs to have fun at the same time. We just let her what she wants at the same time maintaining her schooling too but not to the degree that she is being pushed to hard by us, No! I might be a little hard on her sometimes on her assignments and etc but Daddy is always there behind me to remind what's the most important thing in the world by simply being a parents to our kids. We wanted just to balance our kids needs and wants not to overdo everything in their life. Education is our priority and so is their happiness. So, for her doing so great at school even without us pushing so hard is just awesome. She is happy girl at school, not very competitive and quite friendly too. She is doing what exactly the little girl needs to do. It's just a natural thing! After yesterday's parent/teacher meeting we found out that she is one of the top in her class. She was one of the few kids to do an advanced Math lesson to meet their level. It's such an honour to be her parent and we are truly proud of her. So, after the meeting Daddy took her to the shops and bought her a reward. She got to choose whatever toy she likes and she opted this "Keytweens" stuff and she deserved it.
