The shutter :)
I’m sure most mommies (who are paparazzi in their previous lives) can relate to this post. A lot of times, K would agree to have her picture taken, but it must be really quick or I’d end up with a picture like above. This is why I have more photos of R these days because she can’t run away from me YET. :D
Mom insisted we try this restaurant along Mother Ignacia in QC. It’s called Rustica with branches in the North. We found the place right away as it was located very strategically (in front of Crossroad 77 and St. Mary’s Academy). We got there early lunch and only a couple of tables was occupied. I am not going to make an extensive review here but can I just say that we loved the food?
And I loved the Eggplant Salad the most!
There’s a big chance that we will come back to try the other dishes. :)
I was exchanging PMs with a friend the other day and it was about moving houses. She was asking me about movers and if we hired the services of one particular moving company. I said no, we just got help my my dad’s driver, boys and our trusty L300 van. I didn’t seem possible but we made it happen since we were moving stuff in a span of two weeks and the new house is just near the old apartment. And then she mentioned about the expenses piling up because there are things you cannot not buy when moving. We are talking big ticket items here huh, like fixtures and pieces of furniture. I shared to her that we were sleeping on a mattress on the floor for about a month after moving because we still could not afford a bed frame! And my brother and I would browse standsandmounts.com for products because our old ones just would not fit the new house.
Really, if it were up to me, I wouldn’t have moved. We were comfortable in the old apartment already. That was before. I believe that it was Divine Intervention that we are here now in the current house. All that stress (packing and unpacking) and expenses brought about by the move are now justified because we feel we were brought here on purpose.
Snagged this in Facebook (Book Porn’s page):
“A house that has a library in it has a soul” – Plato
I quite agree. I’ve always dreamed of having a library in our future home (not necessarily the immediate future home but for when we are able to build our dream home :))
I thought rough play was only for boys but it seems we might need wrestling mats at home even if we only have girls. Case in point: K can be rowdy with Tatay too…
This photo was just taken tonight. We learned to be conscious about when and where we bend over now. K would easily climb on our backs every chance she gets! Anyway, even blurred, I love this shot. It shows that we have a happy kid, noh? :)
This coffee was special, I’m glad I captured it in a photo.
I had it in a quaint shop called Sauceria while waiting for my Trainer. It was the first time I was meeting her for some job. I ordered coffee just to shake off the jitters. Two weeks later, on Tuesday, I realized there was no reason to be nervous at all. I GOT THE JOB! :) Best of all, it’s a work-from-home job. Amazing how God works. I did not even look for this one, it literally found me. To God be the Glory :)
Even before our Boo was born, she already received gifts from relatives and friends. One of the gifts was a pair of Pitcheco covered feet tights. Boo got to wear them a month ago, after I remembered she had them in her stash of clothes! I am glad the tights still fit and I did not forget about the pair forever, LOL!
So cute right? This pair actually made me hoard a few more pairs and some pairs of socks for little Boo, about two weeks ago. I just could not get enough of them. :)
Yesterday, I saw this poster in Facebook:
And the caption said “Share our new poster and get the chance to win 1000 worth of Pitcheco socks ( mix of tights, socks, and headbands)! Winner will be announced on October 20, 2012.” So I did. I hope we win! :)
Our second princess turned four months yesterday. We had a mini celebration of course. I asked the angels to cook Pancit Bihon and Badz bought a mini-cake from Red Ribbon. We also had our usual photoshoot, and can I just say that it is difficult to take pictures of two kids together! But we got good shots anyway, enough for memory-keeping. Happy fourth month, baby R! :)
I have been bugging Badong to please bring me to Megamall so we could try the donuts at J Co. He would just shrug me off saying that I never liked Megamall’s thick crowd, which is true. But one day, he came home from work with a box of dozen donuts! Yay! He said that his manager treated the team and he sent money too so we can buy too. See, there’s big savings when you buy two dozens, so it is just practical to find another who is wiling to buy a box also.
What can I say? These sweeties did not disappoint! I love the green tea flavor, no aftertaste to it. I loved everything that I tasted, I think I ate 5 of the twelve! Definitely, I will ask Badong to buy again but only if we have a partner to buy the other dozen ;)
On our way to Tagaytay on Saturday, there was a sedan driving in front of us who had one of those hitch bike racks attached on the rear. We wondered if it is safe to do that, with bike parts protruding on the sides. Obviously, the car owner bikes too, possibly as a hobby and/or part of a fitness program. He (or she) could also be training for a triathlon which seems to be the in thing these days. (Notice we make up stories while in the car so we won’t get bored during a drive, hahaha). Anyway, I admire the person’s dedication. I can’t even go back to running around the village nor the gym.
