Isn’t it great to be kids?!?!

As for Jon and I, we are getting the best Christmas present ever. No, its not arthritis treatment, haha! But mind you, when I say best I mean BEST. We are broke but happy!!! HO HO HO HO!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

to wear to Mateo’s Party. Here are some she tried on. What do you think?

We came home empty handed though. We spent a good three hours in the mall and we couldn’t find one single dress. Well, I did buy the brown one but not to be used for the party. Just for other casual occasions maybe. So to date, the little girl who is excited for the party more than anyone else still has nothing to wear. And yes, we only got a week left. Stress is slowly kicking in and I badly need acne treatment as I am starting to have breakouts already because I also don’t have a dress yet too. Yaiks, right?

Because of my new found online friends, I now know how big Black Friday Sales are. And because of this I am braving up for the coming Black Friday Sale this month. Been saving up for a while now because who wouldn’t love discounts, right? Recently though, I also have learned another way to save up big bucks on our purchases. And this is by using discount coupons we can find online. Its no sweat actually and lately I have been addicted. Who wouldn’t? We are all suckers for discounts anyway I believe.

Right now, I can’t seem to resist the suede boots I saw at Walmart so I am searching for Walmart discounts I can use. I don’t want to spend on expensive boots as I might probably be able to use them only once or twice a year so the ones at Walmart will do me good already.  Besides, the reviews were very nice so I’m sure they’ll be perfect.

With coupon codes to boot, I won’t feel guilty buying a pair of boots that I won’t really be able to use from where I am from. Ain’t that great?!?  It is so off to coupon code hunting now.

Christmas is around the corner again and for me this means shopping! The holiday season is the best excuse to spoil the kids you know.

As for this year, I already have two kids to spoil unlike in the last four years where I only have to buy childrens’ clothing and toys like activity sets for one. Well, more expensive definitely but doubly fun too I’m sure. I am starting early, as usual, with my holiday shopping as I hate cramming. I also would love to get hold of the all time best sellers childrens’ books before they ran out so I need to start shopping as early as now. My kids will love the books for sure and so will my godchildren.

I am still get a couple of toys for my kids even if they have tons already as I guess every child would really LOVE to get toys on all occasions.  Agree? I’ll just make sure I’d get the educational ones. Oh I can’t wait! This is so exciting!

Shopping in 5,4,3,2,1. Go!

And I swear by that.

For a shopper like me, there’s nothing sweeter than getting discount coupons for use on your favorite store. Who wouldn’t enjoy freebies and discounts, right? So you see, whenever I plan to online shop, I first look for some coupon codes I can use. Smart shopper, eh? You should too! You’ll be surprised how much you can save when you sum up everything after (say a year) your shopping sprees. After all, with the hard times we have right now, every little penny should count.

Right now, my favorite are the Macy’s Coupons as the store has been offering great deals lately on almost anything! I am planning to get the Samsonite Luggages I have been wanting to purchase for some time now from them so I can certainly put the macy coupon codes to good use.  Now, I am a happy camper! Life’s simple for me. I get discounts and I am happy, really happy! LOL.

It was our usual date when her yaya goes on a day-off. Only this time I met with Mateo’s birthday party planner first.

Last Saturday was bonding time again for me and my little girl.

We were at Powerplant at 1o:30 am. First stop – breakfast.

(Mc Donalds in Powerplant doesn’t serve breakfast so we ended up having donuts instead.)

And then shopping. I got myself a pair of flats from Aldo while Sophia got another Hannah Montana DVD and a pair of sandals. Here she is while we were paying for her DVD.

Lunch time at Burgoo after.

(Reason why she wanted Burgoo was to be able draw on the table top.)

We went to see a friend after.  Since we were using my MIL’s driver (ours was sick), he wasn’t familiar with the place so we got lost! How I wish we have those gps systems so it would be easier to find our way around. Oh well, soon I hope those will be available in our side of the world.

Just when I thought Sophia is DONE with her love affair with Crocs ever since the arrival of her new love – Sanuk, now comes Crocs Gabby. Waaah! Too cute to pass up, don’t you think?!?!?!

Sophia’s Sanuk, her all time fave going out shoes/sandals for some time now after her crocs mania

I don’t think I can resist not to get these gabby for the little girl.

I wonder if these are cheaper in the US. Then maybe I can ask her fave Auntie to buy these for her. I hope the auntie is reading this post.

Okay, now off to reading up on Mesothelioma cancer.My brother is doing a research paper on this and I volunteered to help him.
