Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder

Good mimicker

adminjw — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 22:56:33 +0000

My son is really a good mimicker. Believe me or not all his words he learned it from watching his favorite educational shows every single day. Even reciting his ABC’s and counting numbers from 1 up to 20 and above, perhaps, he learned it from watching word world one of his favorite educational show. And I’m a proud parent because my son is absorbing words so easily and quickly. He can communicate to us now with no problem at all. Another thing that amuses me is that he is imitating the kids playing drums. And what he does every time we go to the store (toy section), he will go look for a stainless steel drums and starts pounding on it. I think we will get him one soon because I hate to see him drumming our stainless file cabinets. I think he likes to be a musician someday lol. Even when we went to the hospital to visit his grandma, he saw a pianist playing with his piano, and he hastily ran towards him and all of a sudden, he pressed some of the piano keys. I was so embarrassed when he did that. I don’t want people think that my son is not a disciplined child. I apologized to the pianist and he understands it. Then my son ask him if he can play “twinkle twinkle little star” which he did. And my son was singing along with his music. He look so cute!

Lucky you

My son’s cousin went to Vegas last year with his friends. We envied him because he was able to spend some time with his friends out of town. He showed us their pictures including the ones at las vegas hotels on the strip. Of course they never miss the opportunity to take pose in their famous billboard, image or sign that says Welcome to Las Vegas (whatever you may call it). I’m sure they had fun and unforgettable experience in Vegas. The question is? When can we go there?

No need to rent movies in the movie stores

adminjw — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 22:09:09 +0000

My husband was bragging me about the movie that he saw the other day at work. He said that it was really a good movie that we should consider to watch. He wasn’t able to watch the whole movie because he had to work but he said that the movie is about an autistic child who was able to crack the government’s code using his toy or something like that. He was also told that the title of the movie is “Jackal”. So we went ahead and try the pay-per-view on HBO last night. We paid $2 which will be included in our next cable bill and we can watch the movie for 24 hours. Unfortunate, it wasn’t the movie that he was telling me about. I think his co-worker gave him the wrong title but it was still a good movie though. However, it was kind of violent and my son was saying “I’m scared” and covering his ears at the same time. I had to hold him and told him to not to watch it. My son is really raised in a good and loving environment because he’s not use to watching violent movies and he’s not used to hearing bad words either, that’s why he said he’s scared. We want him to be strong and become a good Christian. Anyways, at least we don’t have to go to the movie stores to rent movies because we can do it in just a click of our remote.

Thanks to her swing

It was a crazy night for me last night because my daughter was crying. I changed her diapers thinking that that was the reason for her fuss. It didn’t work. I sponge bath her, still didn’t work. I know she was tired because she tried to close her eyes and for some reason she was fighting herself to stay up. I rub her tummy and back to soothe her but that didn’t work either. My last resort was lying down with her and nursing at the same time but she cried still. I got tired of her fussiness, so once again I put her back in the swing and sway it harder, and then she fell asleep. What a relief for me afterwards because I was able to rest for a little bit. It was already midnight when she started snoring and it didn’t take long though. But this time when she woke up, I took her out of her swing and put her next to me. Thanks to her swing because it helps me a lot.

PhotoHunt 186: Veterans/Military

My brother-in-law

This week’s photohunt is all about veterans/military. Some of my family members are soldiers and they were assigned mostly in the remote areas or in the province of the Philippines. Usually this type of job is risky but I guess they are happy with their job because that’s what they’ve chosen and besides they get paid with good money you know. I just prayed for their safety and protection.

Fire alarm went on

We were sound asleep this morning when the fire alarm went on. My husband and I hastily got up to check what’s going on. I was so scared because I thought something burned or our apartment is on fire that trigger the alarm to make loud noise. It was weird though. It made me think of how important it is for me to prepare some emergency kit and keep all our important documents in one place just in case there’s fire. I’m glad that everything is false alarm.

Bummer…

The birth control that I’ve chosen has a side effect that I really didn’t want to have. What is it? Well, to gain weight. Everybody knows that I really want to lose weight; I was even tempted to purchase some weight loss pills in the store the other day because I feel like I’m gaining more instead of losing. I thought breastfeeding can help lose weight naturally but I’m not seeing any positive effects on me. I was supposed to have the tubal ligation but I changed my mind. We’ll see what’s going to happen with my weight in a few more weeks, otherwise I will have to choose another birth control method.

Boo…

Tonight will be a spooky night where you can see a lot of people wandering around your neighborhood and in the stores dress-up with halloween costumes. People (kids to adults) will be knocking on your doors trick or treating for some yummy sweets. We neither participate nor practice this kind of holiday for some religious reason. Although some people don’t know about this but whenever they happens to knock on our door, we nicely explain it to them or we just simply put a sign on our door so they will be aware of it. And they understand it. Anyways, I just want to say be safe to all especially when you go outside walking for candies hunts because you don’t know what’s ahead of you. And you don’t know you might encounter a person infected with SWINE FLU. So it’s better to be cautious you know.

Affordable name brand luggage

adminjw — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 02:19:37 +0000

I can’t believe the low prices on Samsonite luggage at this website called luggage base.com. I found a 5 piece luggage set from Samsonite retailing for $500 on sale for $126. It’s too bad my husband and me are not going back home to the Philippine’s this year because of the failing economy and our budget won’t allow us. I don’t know how long these prices will remain this low but I’m sure it won’t be for long. With savings of 85% off luggage, briefcases and bags and quality name brands like Samsonite, American tourister, Travel-pro, Pathfinder, Timberland and more, you’ll find luggage to fit your budget and style. Wow! Free shipping too on pages displaying “free shipping with orders $50 or more” You can’t beat these prices.
