Best Wishes

These are some snapshots taken during one of my bestfriends wedding last December 26. Their wedding was nice and simple :) Never mind that i had to get up at 6 in the morning to get ready :) (imagine the bride!)

Cheers to Mr. and Mrs. Eric and Lia Zamora!

Note to self: next time i get married, i am definitely choosing St. James. It's expensive but it's really worth it!

Christmas!

We spent Christmas Eve in bf. We had yummy crabs and ham! It was a simple dinner with the family :)

Julia got all kinds of stuff this Christmas; clothes, shoes, toys, books, diapers! Thank you everyone for all your presents! :) Can't wait till her 1st birthday... hehe! (i'm the one who's excited!)

I was gonna post more but Tatay just called to say we are going to buy a walker for Julia! Wooohoooo!!! I'm so excited for the baby kangaroo!

Thanks tatay!!!!

gotta go!

Finally!

It's been such a busy couple of weeks, i just couldn't find the time to go online, much less to blog. I'm sure i'm not the only one caught under the Holidays spell. Our schedule has been really full the past few days. Christmas parties and get-togethers here and there, last minute Christmas shopping, wrapping presents, taking orders and deliveries for the bakery... and as if i'm not busy enough i still have two weddings to attend, both of which i'm a part of the entourage. Phew! Before i know it, the Christmas break is over. I wish our Christmas break could be longer than 12 days (yes, not even 2 weeks! grrr. We go back to work jan. 3)

Anyways, these are the highlights of the past 2 and a half weeks:

JOEY IS 6 MONTHS OLD!!!!

Last December 17, Julia turned 6 months! Yey!!! She smiles/laughs and babbles alot more now and she reacts to the different things around her. She knows how to reach out to you when she wants you to carry her. She's also practicing how to crawl! She can position herself on all fours but she still can't move in crawling steps. She just wobbles! Hehe. We call it her "ocho-ocho" dance :) She really enjoys eating! Oranges, banana and yogurt are her favorites!

CLASS CHRISTMAS PARTY

We had our class Christmas party last Wednesday, Dec. 19. Julia graced us with her presence :) My kids swarmed around her! It was the first time they saw Julia. They've been bugging me for the longest time to bring my baby to school but i always told them it's not allowed. We had fun! My kids loved the pet fish they got from me as their Christmas present!

BRIDAL SHOWER

One of my best friends is getting married on the 26th and we had her bridal shower last friday. I brought Julia and let her stay for a while then Drago picked her up around 9:30. While all of them stayed for drinks, i had to go home to feed Julia. Oh well, motherhood.

TAGAYTAY

Yesterday, we went to Tagaytay with our friends from ELORDE Gym for our Christmas get together. It was fun! Our other friends brought their kids and we brought Julia. It was Julia's first trip to Tagaytay :) Look at her flirting with Diego :) What can i say, Julia likes older guys :) hehe (6 months older!)

Almost Christmas To-Do-List

1. Make a Christmas List

2. Buy Christmas presents for my students (not more than P40 ea. since i have to multiply it pa by 36. I'm on budget :)-- there was this year i gave my students one goldfish each, just the cheap, local kind. It only cost P20 each and they loved it. I'll probably do that again this year.

3. Market our pastries and other bakery products as Christmas giveaways. Well, for starters, we already have a captured market-- 13 A. Barretto St. :) Headed by Krissy! Thanks for taking orders from Prep Camp! (hehe). We should just put up a sign there: "Help Send Julia to College. Buy Bread" For sure Loola and Tatay will be first in line :)

4. Have a garage sale. I have too much junk. I really need to dispose them. And we could use the extra cash :)

5. Plan an out of town trip with Joey and Drago :) I really can't wait til Christmas break.

So far that's all i can think of.

Time to feed the hungry hippo :)

We Got Elfed (Cute!)

Just recently, Drago's cousin Oliver sent us a really cute link. It's called Elf Yourself. It was sooooo cute! I just had to make one for us.

So here's to all of you... Happy Holidays from Drago, Julia and I :)

We Got Elfed

Make one for yourself too!

Sick :(

I am down with fever and my stomach is really bad. Hopefully it gets better tomorrow. We have a birthday/children's party to attend that i promised my friend we wouldn't miss.

Yesterday morning we went to the St. James Bazaar (known to be the Mother of all Bazaars in Alabang). It was huge. At ang daming tao! Jeez. There were all kinds of stuff, but most of the prices have shot up since the last bazaar. Drago and I went for 1 round and just ended up buying a sushi plate (P50) and some small serving dishes (P30 ea.) Oh and drago got a garrison belt for P100.
But... if i had the money, i would buy lily (our dog) a P400 shirt (mas mahal pa sa mga shirts ko!) and probably get Julia those cute rockstar onesies (which she'll probably only get to use 3 times) that cost P500 ea. Oh, and the Ultimate Bumble Bee toy worth P6,500 just for kicks.

Talk about hold-up.

Happy Christmas shopping everyone!
