Family Tradition

It's late for me to realize the importance of FAMILY ganun ata talaga if you are on your teenage days you really want to be independent, I remembered that I wrote my parents that I want my independence imagine I'm just 14 years old that time, if naalala namin yun we keep on laughing how come naisip ko yun, eh ngaun ayoko umalis sa kanila I really want to be with them, bumawi sa lahat kalokohan ko. But I'm really thankful that I still have them and paano nila kami pinalaki.

Our family used to eat and pray together, our weekend and holidays are sacred as in we have to be together, I used to complain during my teenage days why we have to be like these. Bakit mga friends ko or classmates they can do whatever they want, they can go out, they can party, they can have boyfriend and more.And when I start working in Jollibee and I have to work on weekends and holidays, that's the time naingit ako sa mga family na together every weekend, and when talking to my office mates na they eat on their own, kanya kanya sila sabi ko oopps how lucky I am that may I have family na waiting for me every night :-) and when I gave birth that's more naiisip ko ang importance ng family.   But I've been thankful kung gaano sila ka strict before, siguro if they let me on my own, I won't be like this. I will not be able to finish my studies, wala me maayos na life. Now na mommy na ako, alam ko na why they have been so protective before.

Now I have my own family, I'm still living with them but still they are still protective, hinahanap pa din nila ako if I'm still not home by seven, we still go out every weekends, we still eat and spend holidays together. I want Sam na lumaki same with us, to practice kung ano ginagawa namin ;

 Here are the things that I want my children to practice;
1. Put GOD first in everything yo do
2. Pray every night/Pray together
3. Read bible every night

11. Open communication (guilty, it's late na when I realized na importante pala ito)
12. For us we practice kiss on the cheeks instead of bless
13. Family first
14. Study hard
15. Not everything you can get, you have  to work for it
16. Learn to say NO
17. Choose your friends
18. Learn how to save
19.Spend holidays together
20. Discover things together

Family Weekend

Since childhood every weekend is sacred for our family, eto lang kasi time we are all together. Every Saturday when our grand parents still alive we used to be at Pagsanjan Laguna , every Sunday naman after church, mall naman or what ever activities as long as we are together. Hangang sa paglaki namin we still have that tradition every weekend and holidays is for family, we eat and pray together. I used to complain before why we have to do be like these, it's late for me to realize the importance of family tradition, will tell you more guys on my next blog. 

Now I have my own family, we still do the same, and I want to pass this tradition with my children, the value of family :-)

So last weekend, we attended the baptismal of my cousin sa gabi naman we attended dinner and despedida party for my tito. My side trip pa sa bf ruins :-), the next day we went to farm to attend my dad's class reunion. Tired+Puyat=Family bonding 

Baptismal at Miraculos Medal Church 1030am 

 I don't have pictures at dinner party, my hubby left the camera, si baby namn hawak ang phone the whole time :-(

The next day we went sa fam hays ang init sobra, more than 100 people attended the reunion, the only pic that I have during the handa is the lechon 

After the party we took the picture of our pine tree, 5 years bago siya lumaki ng ganito, oops hindi siya nag drink beer ha he wants to hold it lang for the picture

That's our happy weekend :-)

Palautos na wifey

Till now if naalala ko what happen  last Tuesday, still can't help but to laugh.

 Last Tuesday I'm super tired imagine we slept Monday night actually Tuesday na 1am, and I need to wake up 530am for my early engagement,so bangag na ako when I got home around 7pm but I still need to attend to my son. Si hubby kasi overtime lucky naman he is already home 10 pm.

So I told to take charge na with our son so I can sleep na, pero ewan ko ba dami ko pa naiisip kahit close na eyes ko I kept on saying "Daddy please turn off the tv", "Please pakibunot saksakan ng dvd", "Please paki timer aircon", "Please move the electric fan", "Please remove the dvd's beside the bed" siguro nakahalata na si hubby so he said "mommy ano pa, tulog ka na nakakapagutos ka pa".

Oo nga naman san ka pa tulog na ako nakakapagutos pa ako, buti na lang my hubby loves me so much and sobrang bait or else natuktukan na ako.

I love you so much Mahal, thank you for everything lalo na for accepting who I am mwah

Bag 101 Banana Republic

As promised I will post some of my favorite bags :-)

My first choice is my Banana Republic, super convenient for me, open tote lang siya so for a person always on the go like me, super okay this one, you can just put everything lalo na pag nagmamadali :-)

Banana Republic 

The fabric is super okay, it's so easy to clean

My bag look like these if I used it

 And the contents :-) kikay kit, gucci wallet, pouch for my cellphone, another pouch for my cellphone, pouch for my documents, my first aid kit :-)

My bag with  many pouches

How to know if it is authentic? the bag should have the serial number and the tab of banana republic

I've been using this bag for three years already, and I would say the bag is still in good shape kahit careless ang user :-) so I therefore conclude Banana Republic is a good investment bag

Till my next post ladies

Kaloka Thurday Morning

Every morning, I really had a hard time tumayo sa bed,maliban sa nakakatamad, my baby Sam will wake up pag tumayo na ako, kahit super sleepy pa siya, so minsan I have no choice isama siya when I'm taking a bath. Ewan ko ba kay Sam he sticks with me like a glue every time I'm home pero cyempre happy din I don't have a hard time to pull him out with his lola and lolo.

Before I will go to the office, I need to drive him for 3 to 5 mins around our subdivision ayaw na niya mag walk "hot" daw kasi takot sa araw anak ko. That's our everyday am routine he will watch me to take a bath, in dressing up, make up and he will ask me to kiss his lolo and lola para we can drive na.

Kanina he asked his ate gloria to wear his shoes and socks, i mentioned before na he is the one who choose his clothes and shoes to wear, even if we are shopping his clothes we need to ask his opinion, oh diba as early as two marunong na :-). I asked him why he need to wear his black shoes and socks eh nasa bahay lang, he answered back mommy  kul (school), may school two streets away lang from our house pioneer graduate kami doon, I'm thinking kasi to enroll na this coming June pero he need to undergo with assessment pa, so I let him na lang to wear it baka mag tantrums pa si kulit :-)

Here is his outfit before I go to the office 

Time Flies

I'm looking forward for Holy week, it's more time to spend with my baby Sam and hubby, minsan lang ang long weekend, how I wish I can be with Sam 24/7, but I really can't sa sobrang laki ng expenses.

I'm bored kahit I need to finish something sa work, so I decided to organize Sam pictures, I really can't imagine how time really flies my baby Sam is really big now, super bilis ng panahon that's why we really need to spend our quality time to our love ones.

Imagine when I gave birth to Sam he is just like these.

Oct 10, 2010 at Nursery Room 3pm

And now he looks like these na

To my baby Sam don't grow to fast, I love you so much, someday you will understand why I cannot be with you all the time, why mommy needs to be at the office, I want your future to be secured. I'm so lucky to have you in my life, you are truly heaven sent, you change me to a better person and you made me tougher. Please continue to be a good boy and smart, and loving mommy and daddy so much, do you know that your every kiss and hugs and I love you is the best gift that I ever have in my everyday living. How much mommy is so stress but when I got home and see you everything is worth it because I know I have you in my life. I always pray that when you grow up you will continue to love us unconditionally.

Love,

Mommy

Bag Addict

I'm certified bag addict, lalo na during my dalaga days as long I like style and can carry my things go buy agad, before I'm not brand conscious kahit ano carry lang. But when I'm start selling bags on line I have to be careful on brands, that's where I learned how to spot the difference of fake and authentic. I'm not saying naman that your things must always be branded, but for me I have to be since it's my sideline, kasi I do meet up some of my buyers, mawawala credibility ko once they see that my own bag is class A.

My first branded bags was nine west, that time maganda pa talaga quality ng nine west until now I can still use it, and from there I started to have other brands such as guess, tommy, lulu, victoria secret, gap, old navy, memo, dkny, esprit, nike, long champ, banana republic and my luxury bag are LV neverful, channel wallet, gucci, coach.

Bags are good investment also because you can still sell once you like to have a new one, you can even pawned or swap for a good one.

I will post soon my favorite bags, I like the big one yung super maluwag kasi lagay ako ng lagay lang I'm always on the go person and not so organize inside the bag :-), I remember my hubby when we are still bf/gf stage when he asked me when kaya aayos gamit mo inside your bag, I answered him soon, now we are 7 years together same thing pa din lalo na nung may baby na, his baby bag is organized but mine is don't dare to look at it na lang, but the good thing I know where I can find my thing inside my bag kahit napakadami ko pang pouch bag inside my big bag :-)

It's also my dream to carry a small bag, yung parang kikay bag lang pero gosh as in hindi carry sabi kasi nila I carry the house inside my bag, lahat kasi nandun na cyempre dapat laging ready.

Maybe someday I can have a small bag, maybe if I'm a senior na he he he
