I WANT

This is really bad.. after buying 2 bags (reveal will be done soon) in one month, I am seriously considering buying this



I still don't know what size to get. I tried on the PM and it fits me well. I'll think about it for another month and if the thrill of owning and using it doesn't die down, I will definitely go for it. Besides, it will be useful for trips or when I finally decide to take Fonzy to the malls :)

I will be

back to blogging soon. I'm done with all the backlog work in the office after a month since I returned to work...

But for now, I am in so much pain! I want to go home and nurse my little boy. He's the only one who can relieve me from this :(

Pictures of my little boy

After more than two months of being in hiatus, I finally found time to do a short update on this blog. I've been so busy taking care of my baby and planning his baptism at the same time. I am also so thankful that I found an efficient and trustworthy yaya that has been keeping me sane for the past month.

Here are some pictures of Fonzy stored in my phone as I am blogging from my Nokia e63.

I'll be doing my birthiing story sson so standby for it..

Pacman Won at Round 2!!!

11:47 am, Just a got a call from hubby who is watching the Pacman-Hatton Fight over at World Music, Greenhills Promenade.


Woohooo!!! Go Pacman!!

My New Lunch Date

I look forward to this treat everyday. Its a healthier alternative for my Starbucks Frap cravings whenever I want something sweet (and sour) and cold. Its fat free and has few calories plus I get my fruit serving requirements. I usually top it with strawberries, mango and banana to complement the creamy sweet and sour taste. Good thing they have it at Hobbes and Landes at Greenbelt 5 which is just walking distance from my office. Sometimes though when Paolo is not able to join me for lunch, I would get really tamad to go out and walk since the heat outside is really terrible.

I've also tried Red Mango at Trinoma and its just as good. Though the center of the yougurt "twist" was hollow so it was kinda bitin.

I also wanna try White Hat but when I checked, they only have a store in Mall of Asia. I do hope though they will open one here in Makati or QC area.

Good as new

I finally decided to have my watch serviced after more than 11 years since I noticed that its not that snychronized anymore. If I don't get to wear it for a day, it already stops. This is very unusual since before, it can last up to 3 days of not wearing it.

A few weeks ago, I brought it to Rolex Service Center in Makati and true enough, after checking it, they said that it needs an "overhaul". They quoted how much the repairs would cost and it wasn't that cheap! Five thousand pesos more and I could've gotten myself a new bag!But then, this is an investment and I should really take care of it since it has a sentimental value (got it for Christmas).

After waiting for weeks, I finally got my watch in its brand new condition. It was buffed to remove the scratches. The bracelet was cleaned so its "shinigly" brand new. It was oiled and the crown was replaced for a better and more efficient winding.































I'm so happy with it since it looks so shiny and pretty. The wait and the money spent was all worth it!

Pics are up!

His Firstborn

that's what I like to call it but he calls it his newest "toy".. a very expensive one at that! He really spends most of his time on the internet to look and buy accessories to "dress" it up that my baby and I are already ignored... exag! haha!


Meet "Sparking Graphite"

THE REAL FIRSTBORN (hehe) will have his free 4D ultrasound today. We wish he will show his face kasi sayang naman if not. Will post pics soon!!

Is it too early..

to plan for my little boy's baptism? I've been thinking of planning it now since I'm already halfway done shopping for baby essentials like bottles, teats, basic clothes and blankets. I got some gifts from friends when they gave me a baby shower (read all about it here) to add to my "must-haves" for the baby. My sister told me they will schedule another shower for me on my birthday (double celebration) or basta daw sometime in April. I hope matuloy sya :)

Another reason why I want to plan his baptism is to get my mind off my fears and anxieties of motherhood. There are so many things going on in my mind. I still get to sleep soundly at night although there are times that I wake up to bad dreams. Maybe this of its manifestations.

I am so scared of many things... taking care of a newborn, not being able to breast feed as much as I want to, the sleepless nights, stretchmarks and getting fat and ugly (ok, the last three are really so vain of me. Blame it on the extra surge of hormones perhaps?).

On the other hand, I'm also excited to be a mom and to see my baby. I had a check up last monday and we already saw our baby's face in the ultrasound (2d nga lang). He has chubby cheeks but quite a big nose! My mom and my OB assured me that it will still change. He's doing very well. All results are normal and his kicking activities are getting stronger and more frequent. I am also happy that I only gained 3 pounds since my last check up. I felt so relieved since I was always pigging out and eating the not-so-good stuff the past few days.

Now, I am looking forward for our FREE 4D ultrasound. My OB told me that she will inform me of the schedule of the demo for the 4D ultrasound machine that she plans to buy. I hope that I will be free, better yet, I HAVE to make myself free on that day. I'm so excited! I can't wait!!

Is it me or is the weather getting hotter the past few days? This makes me crave for more fruit shakes and Starbucks frap (I know all these sugar is bad!!).

What's your plan for summer? Looks like mine will be boring..

We're Having A Boy!!

On my fourth month check up, my OB told us that we were having a boy. After checking for all the other body parts, she went back to capture "proof" that our baby is a boy when he became shy and closed his legs. My OB then decided to wait for my next check up to confirm and print an ultrasound picture.

Here he is....

Last christmas, our baby already received gifts eventhough he's still in my tummy. The wife of my cousin who is also our ninang when Paolo and I got married sent this all the way from the Netherlands. She's really so sweet and she's more excited for the baby than I am!

Ofcourse, the proud and excited daddy bought this one for his junior.

Fabulous!

Thanks Pat for this! =)
