Jon and I were very early at the church because all the while I thought the ceremony was at 3pm only to find out that it was at 4pm instead. Nevertheless, I had a grand time waiting because there was a wedding going on inside the church and most of the guests were wearing really lovely gowns and toting chanel metallic reissues! Yay, such a sight to see!

Anyway, here are two photos I grabbed from Jacqui’s Facebook. Pardon my bloated look, the elliptical isn’t making it happen for me yet. Give me a month or two for results.

She looks so dalaga don’t you agree?

I always find myself saying – where did all the years go? She used to be this small little girl who can’t even manage to join party games but look at her now. She’d die for a prize, literally. LOL.

Party was fab and we all enjoyed it. Thanks for inviting us Mommy Peachy!

Anyway, here are some party photos.

My long drive was worthit as Sophia was reunited with her best friend and both had the time of their lives participating in all the party games.  They took home most of the prizes too! My little boy, on the other hand, was such an angel again. Didn’t even cry even if we stayed past his bedtime already.

On the way home, we rode with the daddy as the driver came to pick up the car I used. Buti na lang.

Anyway, for my come back post, let meshare with you photos from our Hyatt Hotel overnight stay to attend Ama’s birthday last April 16.

The kids in our room right after we check in.

***Sophia is so dark! She went swimming at Tagaytay Highlands the week before thats why.

In red for ama’s birthday.

Ugh, look at that tummy of mine.  Those weight loss pills need to give me results!

Pics w/ cousins.

The next day, about to check out.

Party’s finally over. After everything – Mateo’s UTI ordeal and being circumcised four days before the party, event went well and preparation was well worthit.  Guests – both adults and kids had fun.  Mommy had aching feet after though. LOL!

Thanks to everyone who came.

In a few months,  I’ll be back to party planning again for Mateo’s 1st birthday. Hay, ang bilis. I bet November na before I even know it which spells expenses again. I hope my financier is up for the challenge.

I missed my online life. Haven’t been online for a looong time and now I’ve got so much to do! First off is to look for discount lighting, ugh!

As for me, all I asked was for them to bring home Paella Negra from Las  Paellas. Yummy! Can’t wait.

By the way, tomorrow, it’ll be my time off. Its my check up and then I’ll head on over to the salon and the mall to buy our “babies” gifts for our Christmas Party on Saturday here at home.  I’m sure it’ll be a blast again just like last year and the year before, and the year before that.  Food this year is courtesy of CCME, thanks to MBAPs for introducing them to me during our MBAP Party.  Food from them is so sulit for the price. 

I’ll try to work on my very short and uneventful birthing story after this post. Hope Mateo won’t wake up anytime soon. I wish!

I have been running errands here and there for days now and I am tired!

If I haven’t told you, Jon’s starting on a new business. A sideline of some sort and he’s driving me crazy. And I’m driving people crazy too, LOL! We are all cramming as his new “biz” is opening this coming Tuesday. I have ordered the tarps, streamers and all but now he wants posters, ugh! And leaflets too! Yeah, with just three days to go?!?! Goodness!

On top of these, another event I am busy with is my mom’s upcoming 5oth Birthday Party tomorrow. Ordered her cake, had her give aways delivered, followed up on her other suppliers and even purchased a 42 inch plasma for her computer room! Apparently, she can’t find the same deal/package as the one where Jon and I got our TVs from so she asked me to buy for her from the store here. Haaaaay….

And then lets not forget Sophia. Since they are studying about community helpers, they went to a field trip last week at the Ayala Alabang Community Center to personally witness and see community helpers such as doctors, nurses and dentists in action. And just this morning, I was with her for her South Supermarket Field Trip. I took her to her pedia after for check up as she still has coughs and colds until now which is so depressing as it has been weeks! The doctor told me that there’s no need to worry though as its just a case of allergy rhinitis. Hay naku… Tomorrow, she needs to come to class in an office attire as Nursery classrooms will be transformed into offices of some sort. I swear, I almost got crazy looking for an outfit!!!

Now, as if these things aren’t enough to keep me so busy,  I still need to finish some tasks which are all expiring tomorrow, my mom’s party! On top of my list is to talk about Outer Banks rentals and I am going crazy thinking about it. I wish I couls stop time, just this time, please?

We finished really late and I wasn’t able to sleep after, ugh! I hope I won’t develop acne in time for my mom’s 50th birthday party this Friday.

Just some updates.

Yesterday, the little girl had no class as it was Teacher’s Day so we went to Lil Fun Runch at Westgate in the afternoon to meet her old classmates from Toddlers Unlimited. Too bad, Joaquin got sick so it was only Adie she met and played with at Active Fun. I had a blast catching up with Adie’s mom, Ria. We hope we can do the playdate again soon when the kids are complete. Sophia didn’t want to leave but I still needed to grab some grocery items so I made her to, only after having some nail art done. So kikay!

Was able to finish my grocery shopping a bit late so we got home late already. The dad was starving, haha. Wasn’t able to get the yaya acne solution again, ugh! Which reminds me, can you suggest the best acne treatment I can get for Sophia’s yaya? I have been really bothered with the acne she has been having on her face so I need to make her use some treatment already.

Today, we are expecting some friends over for our annual Mooncake Festival. Was able to order some food and I asked the husband to buy lechon from Elars later as he is on his way to Manila right now to have his Subaru serviced.

Our good friends (MArtin and Jacqui) are staying for the night so I am fixing my breakfast and lunch menu for tomorrow. The husband suggested to have Korean Beef Stew for lunch so I will oblige of course. After all, he only eats on weekends so I need to give in.

Sophia is so excited to see Marla. I bet she’ll be even delighted to find out that Marla is staying for the night. I hope their closeness continues to grow until they are older.

By Monday, Sophia will be back to school and I have got a TON of errands to run, mostly for other people, LOL.

Until then. Enjoy the weekend!

Its my first time to see Blue Leaf and I already told Jon that Baby Bullet will celebrate his 1st birthday there. HAHA. Payag naman.
