On watches.

stage mom — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 01:16:05 +0000

I am not a watch person. I’d rather buy expensive bags than luxury watches. My husband thinks such is odd though as he believes watches are more worth it and are another form of investment. My mom can’t agree more. She has watches of all types actually while I only have an Omega which is already my most expensive watch to date. I would love to own a Rolex eventually though but the husband thinks I should also try to look at Cartier Watches. As I did, I found this one (below) at TheWatchery.com nice. It is actually on sale right now.

As I browsed through the site some more, I saw really cute Tag Heuer Watches that are good for everyday use. Some are even at 50% off. The husband owns one and he uses it everyday so maybe I should settle for one? His Tag Heuer watch according to him has been with him since college and until now, its still in very good condition. Now, that is one thing I should consider, right? But I also heard nice feedback on Movado Watches so I tried searching to find out how they look like and I must say, they do have really nice models good for everyday use too. Now, I have never been confused. I’ll just leave the deciding to the husband. After all, he’ll be the one paying, LOL.

Sophia Ballerina.

Because of this book which we got during Rosemont’s Scholastic Book Fair,

my little girl now is a frustrated Ballerina. Lookie!

Hang lusog ano?

Let’s talk about luggage.

stage mom — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 01:53:23 +0000

Since we are leaving for Hong Kong this Monday, I made the helper clean the two luggages we will be using for the trip the other day so they were out in the hallway. Last night, I had the time of my life laughing as the little girl came rushing to our room with one of our rolling luggage full of her clothes shouting, “Let’s go, let’s go. I’m ready!”. Apparently, she packed all on her own the yaya said. She knew she was trooping to Hong Kong to visit Cinderella so she packed her stuff and even claimed that the red Samsonite Luggage is hers.

Now, it got me thinking, should I get her her own luggage? I have seen really nice kids luggage over the net and I am sure she’ll be delighted to own one of them. I wonder what type of luggage will suit her. Should I get her a something with wheels too? Or a backpack? Or better yet, get her those new luggage they call “spinner”, the newest version of the rolling luggage where one can easily maneuver through narrow aisles and crowded airports. We’ll see. I guess I need to check on a luggage buying guide first before deciding on what to get for Sophia. But I’m pretty sure she’ll love the idea of having her own luggage whenever we travel.

My pic and Antonio’s AGAIN!

Okay, okay, everybody is wondering how I look like now … here I am with my new hairdo. Pic taken this morning at Las Paellas Cafe.

This is for you JEN!!!

To Mich who wants to see how big my tummy is, I’ll post another photo for you soon.

Anyway, here are some more photos last Sunday at where else, Antonio’s again!

Can you see my husband? I just need to brag that he lost around 18 pounds now all on his own without even having to take the best pill they call Ephedrasil Hardcore.

Antonio’s and Tagaytay Highlands Part 2.

stage mom — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 01:57:25 +0000

Part one here.

After our sumptuous lunch at Antonio’s, we headed to Tagaytay Highlands to finally get our membership cards. We of course tried them while we were there.

First off, Sophia wanted to go horseback riding and here she is …

Then we went to the animal farm. Here are some pics.

We were hungry by the time we finished going around the zoo so we took the cable car going to the club house to eat. My camera ran out of battery at this time as I forgot to charge it so wasn’t able to take pics anymore. After eating, Sophia wanted to go fishing and ride the funicular going to midlands but it was already 6pm so they were closed already. She instead played on the outdoor playground before we went home with some other kids.

By the time we reached the car, the little girl was so tired and in no time, she dozed off. Jon then dropped by a friend’s car supply store to get the steering rack he ordered and off we went home. It was a fun but tiring day. We promised the little girl to make her swim and go fishing next time we come back. Now, she can’t wait to go back!

Xbox 360.

stage mom — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 01:29:24 +0000

Is it worth it to get an Xbox 360? I have been asking myself that as no matter how my little girl loves playing her uncle’s Xbox while we are in Pampanga, I can’t help but wonder if it’ll be worth my money to buy her one. More so, with so many video game consoles available in the market now, its very confusing which one is better than the other and why. Good thing, the husband stumbled upon a video game consoles buying guide over the net so now we are getting ourselves familiar and acquainted little by little with what is available out there and which one is best for our little girl. After all, with the hard times we are having right now, every centavo must be well spent. Money don’t grow on trees you know.

But knowing this, Jon and I also know that we should learn how to enjoy our hard earned money so little splurges here and there are fine. So after reading more about Xbox 360, we found more reasons to snag an Xbox 360 now than to let it pass even if its quite expensive. The features and specs has got the husband excited too. We have never been as convinced to get one than now.

Sweet.

One fine afternoon, nagkukulitan ang mag-daddy.

Soon, Baby Bullet will join them. Ang saya-saya!

In need of lighting fixtures.

stage mom — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 05:51:14 +0000

Jon just finished having his parents’ house renovated as his surprise for their arrival from the US. His parents were in the US for a month to visit his sister and they didn’t have a clue that while away, Jon was busy fixing up their house. Sweet isn’t it?

Right now, construction is done. The roman shades and the LCD TV were already installed the other day too. All that is left to buy now are the light fixtures specifically ceiling light fixtures as Jon also replaced the old ones. For the living room and the dining room, he is thinking of getting chandeliers which I think is a good idea. I also saw really nice bathroom light fixtures over the net that I will show him when he comes home tonight. Perfect for his mom and dad’s bathroom.

I hope we get all stuff done right before his parents arrive in a couple of days. I’m sure they’ll be delighted and will find the gesture from their son extra sweet. I definitely would, won’t you?

Speak up and be heard.
