Huey Bids Goodbye to Small Nappy!

Huey started using small-sized diaper since day four. She first tried Huggies Red and my husband loves the wet indicator (as mentioned in my previous post My Trusted Brands for Huey). When we moved back to Lipa, we started patronizing Drypers Wee Wee Dry. Recently, I started noticing that I am already having trouble changing her nappies. It would take three or four extra drags on each end of the diaper before I could finally position the same correctly. I am no longer sure if I'm positioning it right or might have been locking it too tight as it is already leaving reddish marks on her bikini line. Yesterday, 30th of May, my brothers in law and I finally unravelled the cause! Her bottom was showing off while we were cuddling her. Tama ang hinala! It's time to say good bye to small nappies! We were laughing so hard realising that she is indeed getting so big! Huey might have been confused what we were laughing at and flashed her salubong kilay look, which eventually turned into paiyak na  moment with her lips pouting. Lol! She got embarassed! Thought she's too young to know how to feel embarassed! Haha! Oh well, good bye starry starry diaper! Hello clouds! :)

I did not fully understood the saying 'Mom Knows Best' not until I became a mom. Yep, mom was right when she said loving a military man isn't hard, it is in fact very hard. Lol! But what makes a mom know what is best? 

Judge Me Not

Admit it, there was a point in our lives as young teenage girls that we despise the early morning rantings of our moms. You felt like you hear the same litany over and over again and that there is just no way of telling them straight that you got their point, but don't think your doing something wrong. 

Mommyhood: An Unexpected Blessing

LEARNING THAT I'M PREGNANT 
My then boyfriend (now husband) and I have been together for six long years. We knew that marriage is just around the corner but had no plans of doing it sooner than expected. Our lives changed in an instant when two lines appeared on that small white rectangular tester. It dawned on me that I am not ready to raise a kid yet! I had a great carreer and was foresighting a promotion.  For a couple of days, I was praying and hoping that the tester was defective and did not yield correct results. My apprehensions grew stronger as the doctor confirmed that I was indeed seven weeks and two days pregnant on July 18, 2012. Can you blame me? I was 23 and, for goodness sake(!), single! 

NSO Experience: Obtaining Marriage and Live Birth Certificate

Government transaction is one thing I hate the most. Just the thought of the long wait time, poor customer relations and confusing processes make me tired. 

I had to get an NSO authenticated copy of our marriage certificate and that of my daughter's live birth certificate. The night before visiting NSO, I already set my mind for the worst. I arrived at NSO Lipa City office at around 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon. NSO Lipa is located at the Fiesta Mall Complex in Maraouy. I wasn't suprise to see tons of people at the waiting area. I am glad, however, to see each window labeled with Steps 1 to 9. If you are a first timer, it will not be hard to identify which window to fall in line first.  This actually lessens the red tape in government offices. Who would need a fixer if one understands the process, right? 

Baguio Crown Legacy Hotel Review

We travelled nine hours all the way from Lipa City to witness the Incorporation Day of my brother in law, a member of the Philippine Military Academy Class of 2017. Prior to our travel, our cadet already made a reservation for 15 persons at the Baguio Crown Legacy Hotel. 

Situated at Corner Montinola Street in Kisad Road, this newly built seven-story European inspired hotel is a statement of comfort and luxury, they say. The marble and glass themed bedrooms excites me! I liked the panoramic view of the City of Pines right from our window. But I guess all good things come to an end.
