Poem and Pictures

You are our angel
A gift from God above
The best and the finest
I have ever received

Your smiles and giggles
Are treasures from the heart
My sweet precious child
The love of my life

Explaining My Long Absence

I admit. I really have something to be guilty about! I can’t believe that I have neglected my blog for almost two months. What a shame! You see I have really been so busy and I also have to deal with terrible internet connection.

From the time that my maternity leave ended and I started working again, it seems like I always wanted to update my blog but alas there is always something that gets in the way. Like office work that needs to be done, baby stuff that Sophie needs, gifts that needs to be wrapped, some major decisions that I need to think about, part time work with a deadline, etc, etc, etc. I really really apologize for not being able to post a Merry Christmas greeting (makes me feel like a pagan).

I really had to juggle being a mom, wife and a career woman and it’s not so easy. But now more than a month after I went back to work and the holiday season is over, I seem to be getting the hang of it. I am now ready to get this blog running again. So I m back to the blogging world and I promise to be more diligent with my blog updates!

Movies I Missed

For some reason, I am in the mood for reminiscing lately and suddenly I wanyt to watch old movies- movies that remind me of my childhood. Now that I have a child, I am thinking that I want to watch the movies of my childhood with my daughter someday. These are some of the movies which is a biog part of my childhood

Alice in Wonderland

This is the first movie that I ever saw in a betamax during the 80’s-- haha guess my age. I watched this film with my cousins and I love the part when Alice grew so large and cried. I find Alice so gorgeous then and until now.



Beauty and The Beast

I fell in love with this Disney movie that I watched in a cinema (again with my cousins and sisters). I enjoyed every bit of the story and I find Beast adorable. Would you believe that I even find Beast look more handsome than the Prince look when he transformed.



Never Ending Story

Another movie that I watched in a betamax as a child. I think it started my interest in books and reading. As a child, I am always imagining that the characters in the books I read are real. I find the Childlike Princess so beautiful!



Sound of Music

Again, another movie I saw in a betamax and this made me wish I can sing really well. Love al the songs in the movie though it is very long for me. I always end up sleeping before its over so I am not so young already when I saw the ending of this one ( laughs) The So long farewell scene is my favorite part of the movie.

Sophie at 2 Months

How time flies! Sophie is already two months old and she has shown so much improvement since the day she was born. I take care of her and delight in seeing her grow day by day. Her sleep hours are longer and it seems like she can recognize me and her dad now because she’s always smiling. She coos and gurgle a lot too like she has so much to say already. I think I need to relax some more as a mommy because I sometimes panic when she cries out loud especially during immunizations though I know it is for her own good.

Here are some of Sophie’s pictures:

Gifts For My Daughter!

Last month, a package from the US arrived for Sophie. It is from my sister who works and lives there. The large box contains lots of cool baby things like toys, clothes, and baby stuff! Here are some of Sophie’s new things.

These cool clothes will really look so nice on Sophie.



This Leap Frog toy is so educational. It plays songs and rhymes that teaches numbers and colors. It also plays classical music.


And I am so happy for this Fisher-Price kick and crawl aquarium.


I also get to have a Victoria’s secret and Elizabeth Arden perfumes!


Thanks to my ate for being so generous!

A Piece Of Me This Month

Notes from the Tooth Fairy started a new game last Nov 1 called A Piece Of Me. Bloggers who want to participate needs to share a piece of herself every first Sunday of the month by answering five questions. I find it such a neat game so I am joining it. For this month here’s my entry:

This month....

I like: to open a savings account for my baby as well as buy additional items she needs like clothes and accessories. For myself, I need to go to the salon for a haircut, hot oil treatment and a manicure and pedicure.

I don't like: post natal depression. I guess I am having one lately, because there are times when I would just cry because I feel ugly, inadequate as a mom, etc.

I want you to know: that I am trying my very best to be a good wife to my husband and a good mother to my daughter. It’s not so easy because it requires lots of sacrifice. But I know that however hard it may be, it is worth it.

I've planned: to go back to work next month.

I want to say to someone special: To my Husband- thank you for the understanding and patience and I am sorry if I can be real cruel sometimes. For a first time dad, you are really doing great!
