Thankful!

01.25.09 & 01.27.09







I am very thankful for the last 31 years of my life, God has opened many doors and thru the trials and hardships he has always been at my side. I not only celebrate my Birthday but also our 8 year Wedding Anniversary, time is short and you don't really notice these times in your life, it seems that it was just yesterday when we got married and now we have two wonderful kids I hold dear to my heart.

I would like to thank all my well wishers, people who called me up, emailed or just said happy B-day. We had a simple celebration in our place with just the family but it was very meaningful and who better to spend your birthday than with your husband and kids.

I look forward to many more birthdays to come and wedding anniversaries in the future, you only get to celebrate that one special day in your life and for that one brief moment you are at peace and everything is perfect.


Oh I forgot we still have Valentines day! ;)

My wishlist!

I did not make a wish list last Christmas holiday, So now I'm going to make one for these important events of my life and usually this falls in January. I guess that's why they call it a wish list because there is a chance you might get it or then again you might not ha ha ha... It is nice to dream about what you can't have that's why I made this ;)

Byron and his teether!

My son has been eating baby food since he was about 5mos old I think. But if you will watch this video clip of him I think the baby food is not enough ha ha ha...He has 2 teeth now and maybe his gum are so itchy that's why he can't get enough of his teether. He eats different flavors of baby food like sweet potatoes, banana and rice cereal and all of them are organic based food. I'll try my very best to give him organic food or fresh food as he grows up. Lets see.

A short video of my children!

I just want to share this video of my babies! Yes they are still my babies hehehe...I don't want them to grow up so fast! I just love them to bits that's why I'm enjoying every moment of it!

So here you go:

My third mommylution for this year!

Get the kid and hubby to help!

I plan to begin training my son and hubby to take over some of the household chores, such as washing the dishes, cleaning the bathroom, cooking breakfast or dinner, dusting, folding clothes and laundry so that I'm not the only one in the apartment doing these things while two other people lounge around eating junk foods and playing video games haha....

My second mommylution for this year!

Take time for me, among other things.

Time for me, lose more than 10 pounds, organizing, how about organizing did I say that already hahaha, how about time for me, or the 10pounds!

One of my Mommylution for this year!

Never Say Never

I resolve never to say "not my child or " my child will never".....

The one thing that I have learned for the past 5 years of being a mom is that there are no absolutes in this parenting game, and you may find yourself eating your words one day.

You may have the best of intentions but life has a funny habit of getting in the way some times.

So being a mom - I can say the hardest job on the planet! No other job can beat that!!!

My New Years Resolution for 2009

I resolve to…

- stop saying negative things about other people especially to those who hate me and to those who don't like me.
- focus on the positive in my relationship with my partner.
- stop blaming others when I am just as much at fault.
- stop making assumptions or judgements.
- pick my battles and avoid sweating the small stuff.
- stop giving advice to those who don't ask me.


I will...

- start saving for my kids future.
- donate more for charities - this is gonna be our third year that me n my hubby will be donating in charities. Maybe we will sponsor one child in St. Jude cancer research hospital or world vision.
- focus more on my personal problems like health, financial etc.
- help other people if they want me to.
- exercise more and eat less.
- Invest in 401K and IRA.
- save more and travel with my family and give them the best and memorable vacation ever.
- enjoy each moment together with my significant other, live in the present and nurture myself as I nurture my partner.
