sore throat

God, its killing me. I wasn't able to have dinner last night, and i just had hotdog and coffee this morning. Nagugutom na kasi talaga ako. I am just taking strepsils, gargle salty warm water and drinks lots of water. I need to check later if we still have Bactidol.

Though its improving since last night, i still dont have the appetite to eat. And i feel soo sleepy . Im just waiting for the little boy to get a nap, which is anytime now, hope i will feel better after that.

And i hope i will shed off a few more pounds after this..hehehe ;) We have a family outing on Aug 25-26 (yeah , though its the rainy season, we have an overnight swimming with gelo's family), plus our much awaited trip to Panglao.. my tummy is still showing a bit! haayy..

happy monday

I actually hate mondays. Coz its a start of a long week.. and it would just be Joaqui and me the entire day.. Boring and most of all tiring.

But today, Gelo is on a leave. Woohoo! How nice to wake up on a monday morning with daddy still in bed. We had Sopas (from our visit to Lola at Antipolo yesterday) and Pancakes for breakfast. And it was Gelo who cooked the pancakes.. sweeeeett!!! Napa isip tuloy ako, baka may kasalanan to ah?!?! LOlz.

We are hitting the mall after lunch for a haircut.

And as I'm typing this, i am bursting into laughter, because our little boy is doing the "number limbo" dance from Barney. If you are a Barney mom, you should know it by now, hehehe :)

Whoah ! What a happy monday morning.. hope everyday is like today hihihi!

Happy Monday to all and may we have a good week ahead of us:)

a little bit of everything.. again

I actually can't thnk of any topic to blog. Like one solid topic. So here, i'll just list down a few that i wanted to share.

* Joaqui gained 1 kilo in a month.. not bad, hehe, considering he's teething and he had fever pa last july. Ok na ko sa 1 kilo per month hahaha! He's into Gain Plus now, he is not constipated anymore, and eats anything with rice. Latest addition would be Sinampalukang manok :) Buti hindi nagmana sa akin.

* Papa will be laid to rest tomorrow. His urn is placed on the altar at their Antipolo Residence. We finally saw a nice columbarium for him, also at Antipolo.

* Tomorrow will be the 11th session at Little Gym, Show day na next week !

* Also, after Joaqui's class, we are scheduled at IMAX to watch Harry Potter! Woohoo.. At last, i can see the film at the BIG screen. Joaqui will stay with my MIL. Date muna kami ni Gelo.

* My sis told me that I need a new shoe cabinet, just for MY shoes alone. I had 3 cheapy shoes ( but such cuties) purchased last week. A brown jelly shoes, a zebra skin pointed shoes, and a patent sling back peep toe in blue! Yeah!

* We are going to Panglao Island Nature Resort at Bohol on September for Gelo's birthday and im sooo excited. I need to lose at least 5 lbs pa. Im actually planning on what to wear. Our Trip to Plantation Bay, Cebu last April was something i wasnt able to plan thoroughly, like what to wear, accesories... It was the day after Joaqui's party, so imagine super stressed ako while packing our clothes. But hey, not with our Panglao trip, promise ko yan sa sarili ko.

DVD ! DVD!

I posted some of Joaqui's books before (sensya na, mejo tinatamad ako to trace it back and link it here), and now, here's his dvd collection . So much like his dad, he loves to watch DVD too. Our day won't be complete without seeing Barney and Blue. That's why my mom and dad gave him an Audiovoxx that he can use at the car or anywhere else, like when we visit his pedia (nakikigamit na din kami minsan).

Im proud to say that all are original , unlike his dad, wala pa yata sa 5 original mo na dvd, out of 200 siguro LOLz. Most are from my mom and dad, except for the Blue with Dora, and Barneys Best Manners, both a birthday gift. Wala sa budget ko ang bumili ng original DVD hehehe. One thing good about it, di sya nag jump or whatever.. he's Barney's musical scrapbook can attest to that. He started watching it when he was 7 months old. Dala ko pa yan sa Iloilo at Cebu.. Hahaha. He never gets tired of watching it. Now he loves the Dino Dancing Tunes and Numbers! Numbers!

It might really be an addiction na nga, kasi makita nya pa lang ung Blue screen with an FBI Warning yata yun, tumatalon na sya sa bed.. tapos he sees the HIT ENTERTAINMENT Logo.. he'll say " BA.. BA.." (referring to Barney)... or when he sees the Nick Jr. he'll say "Blue"...

Siguro I'll be forever thankful to BArney and Blue, for without them, wala na ako magagawa dito. Its not that Im dependent na, coz there are times na ayaw nya na manood in the middle of the show.. but for those times that i really need a break ... Barney and Blue means a lot.. To My new found friends, thank you soo much for giving my son happiness every morning and before going to bed.. and for letting me have breakfast and have a shower too ... hahaha! Parang awards night! Drama !

awake

I received a call from Gelo, asking me if I have recent posts with my blog. So, I said, Wala.. and now I have to do one just to make him WIDE AWAKE at work. Yes, he is not coming home tonight (its 10:23pm now), coz AS HE said, they have TONS to do with their new boss. So I said, "totoo ba yan?!" LOL.

So here, sana magising si Gelo kahit papano sa first blog ko tonight.. Here are things that I wanted to kwento

** Yesterday was my SIL's birthday. We had a good dinner at TGIF ( God, I miss this place so much). We ordered pasta, cajun fingers, onion rings, fish and chips. Yumminess! Joaqui had fries for appetizer,then fish and chicken fingers too. A TGIF celebration wont be complete without the TGIF HAPPY BDAY SONG, and a few scoops of ice cream with candy sprinkles on top, and a candle of course. It was a great way to end the dinner. Oh, and you might wonder, where are the pics?? hahaha! we left our camera at home, and my SIL's BF wsnt able to bring his camera too. Wow! Ang saya saya.

** Joaquin is getting MAKULIT, pero in a nice and funny way. He would get his dvd's then drop it on the floor. A few minutes later, I'll ask him to help me clean up. He shakes his head "NO". He loves doing that too whenever im giving him to our maid ( in cases that i need to pee, eat or take a bath). Pero di pwede sa akin ang "NO" nya when we have to clean up. As in , I teach him to pick up the DVD, and place it back on the cabinet. Yun nga lang, mejo sapilitan na minsan. From there, he will learn..hopefully. He loves showing his arm muscles too. Pero matatawa lang kyo pag nakita nyo sya. I'l try to capture it in photo next time. This skill is quite new kasi. He loves to lift/carry things too. Nakita ko na lang, yakap nya while walking ung cover ng plastic box nya.. around 24 inches long and 16 inches wide.. funny.. mukhang batang kargador sa pier.

** This is the greatest news for today... I AM NOW 110 LBS ! HUwaaat? Yan talaga reaction ko when i weighed at our scale this morning. Woohooo! I was 115 last month.. and with not much effort (honestly, i dont pano ba ko pumayat, sa pagod yata kaka alaga), im down to my ideal weight. Actually, dati yan ideal weight ko..pero now that i achieved it already... 105 - 107 lbs ang gusto ko. Madali na yun .. Hahaha! Getting ready for Panglao na! I just need to do some leg exercises siguro, un lang prob ko , plus the hips syempre. Wala pa ko anak dati, may balakang na ko LOL.

Here's a part of my YM conversation with Gelo a while ago...

daddy gelo : ano yung 110 lbs!!! woooohhooo! ( referring to my YM status)


peachy : 110 lbs n lng ako

daddy gelo : so pwd na pala? ( referring to baby #2)

peachy : di pa

peachy : hahaha

peachy : 100 dpat !
