No, I am NOT pregnant (really hope not! lol) but looks like we are getting positive results to what we have been praying for.
We just can't wait!

Been driving for 6 years now. I love it because it gives me a sense of independence. Though at times, I just wish I have a driver, but I just can't afford one now, lol! So I will settle with my own driving skills. (hehehe)
You are a creative, resourceful person. You can easily entertain yourself, and you make the best of any situation. You are a fairly aware person, but you can't help but make judgment errors from time to time. You are a very fair person. You treat everyone equally, even when it's difficult to do. You are a calm, peaceful person. You realize that arguments are only temporary, and you try to give people the benefit of the doubt. You have the utmost respect for authority figures. You feel that rules - and their enforcement - are important. You are not a very focused person. You have trouble walking and chewing gum at the same time! You don't feel a responsibility to anyone but yourself. You value your freedom more than anything else. Your have a huge ego. You are apt to see yourself as the most important person in the world. |

My daughter Margax so love cutting and pasting! She is practicing using the Kumon Workbooks which I got from National Bookstore.
Though there are some rugged lines, still I'm a proud mom!
Look at her work...

My cousin's family based in New Jersey sent me their pictures from their recent family beach vacation. I can see how much fun they had in MoreySpiers, which is the best amusement park in Jersey. Oh, how I love to visit the place and also experience the thrill in enjoying the the two large beachfront waterparks. I am very sure the kids will have a blast in the kiddie rides while the husband would really love the roller coaster. The major attractions include The Great Nor' Easter, The Sea Serpent, The Great White and they even have the giant Ferris Wheel. They amusement park is so known for the fastest roller coasters available. But not to worry because they also have something for the small kids like mini scooters, mini tea cups, kiddie train and jump around among the few others. My cousin said that it should really be part of our itinerary when we come visit them in New Jersey. She recommends us checking out the wildwood hotels motels, which offers fantastic accommodations. She told us that they stayed in guestrooms which are actually beachfront. That would be such a good view I'm sure. They also offer weekly specials for the whole family to enjoy. Our family loves travelling and I really love to bring the kids on exciting places like this. I want them to remeber always how happy childhood is for them and that they would treasure such family vacations like this even when they grow up. Now, it's a matter of timing the vacation when both Bianca and Margaux can really run around to enjoy the rides. Hope we can do so in the next couple of years. It's definitely one of the great amusement parks we would love to check and visit.

Need to plan now for Bianca's 2nd birthday party. Obviously, I want Dora the Explorer as the party theme. I'm starting from scratch as I finally just got the approval from the husband to celebrate it. I need to finalize and decide the venue by next week. Hopefully work on food, invites, prizes, lootbags and few decors.
Now, I have a problem as to how can I trim down my guests to 100pax only! I was requested by the daddy to keep the party at its minimum and not match it with the other previous celebrations of the 1st birthdays of Margaux and Bianca having about 250 guests! I wonder how I can manage it!
Goodluck to me!

We are hoping for the best result of the pending loan application from another bank for our house construction. The husband is urging that we start within the year although I still have some apprehensions since I want to rather start next year. But we would rely on what's the result of the application instead. If this pushes through, would definitely cut down on unnecessary expenses. Yes, you read it right, unnecessary expenses like no more bags for the meantime. I'm really hoping I can be firm with this cause I don't want to become a victim of some debt management problems. Priorities matter so all my wants would have to set-back a little. In fact, I might consider getting credit counseling. Did you know that Bills.com offers this kind of service not only about debt management or helping you get out of debt but also about reviewing of finances, and advising on budgeting. I guess I would need the latter, since I'm really bad on that aspect. The site can even help you find your credit rating and can even give you credit monitoring which is an essential service especially for those with mortgages. In fact, you will be suprised that you they do charge minimal amount only for this kind of counseling which is very appropriate especially on this trying times. The cost can actually be depending on what service you will get. It is just a great resource to consider not only about debt management but also managing properly your finances and assets.

I attended a coordinator's friend last sunday. It's so nice to be a guest sometime in a wedding. And to our friend Berlyn, she took off a different hat this time, as a bride and not the coordinator.
I'm proud of my make-up...did it myself! BE flawless!
