TCP:Favorite Husband and Wife Movie

This is my first time to actually get involve in this Tuesday meme. My family always enjoyed watching movies, which made me decide to share in some cents of my thoughts in this Tuesday thing.If there is one movie that Hubby nad me enjoyed recently it would definitely be ¨Il Mare¨. This is actually the Korean movie from which the american movie The Lakehouse was adapted from.



This is one movie we will not get tired of watching over and over again.

Mommy Moments: I Gotta Wear Shades

Jian has been a kid who loves to sport different get ups every now and then. As Hubby puts it, blame it on me being his mom. But, hey he actually looked good in whatever I asked him to wear. The sad thing is that even if I entice him to try his hand in the entertainment business, he just does not want to. Well, this mom is no differnt from other moms. Pardon me, but bragging about my cute son is actually one reason why I am keeping this blog.

Jian at age four. Kahit pango, bagay pa rin ang shades.

Well, just look at where he got the idea of wearing shades.

If your kid loves to wear shades, you better head to Mommy Chris´ site and share your pictures with us.

Mommy Moments: Part of The Family

I am so sorry I was not able to post an entry to last week´s Mommy Moments. I have been really busy on my son´s birthday preparation and I know I still owe you an entry about that celebration plus I have my heads full of all the new knowledge I am trying to absorb from my training at work. i just could not pass on this week´s theme that made me write a really quick post.

Jian has always been close to my side of the family. It is because we live with them and we get to see most of them often.

These are my brothers and my sister-in-law.
Jian being the only nephew that they have as off the moment is very close to them.

This is Tito Dandrie, my cousin who is four years younger than Jian.
Jian calls him Tito and Ayey calls him Kuya.

Well, nothing beats Mommy, my mom. She will always be special to Jian.

Mommy Moments: First Steps

This week at Mommy Moments the theme is all about first steps, be it the literal first step or whatever firsts that we might have in photo for our kiddos. I know I was not able to capture Jian´s first real step (it could be because we still don´t have the digital cam before). But luckily I was able to dig into my mom´s treasure chest of memorable photos. I was not even thinking that my mom was really that sentimental about his only apo that she kept this picture.



So there goes my Jian´s first wobbly steps captured in photo by my mom. ´Twas like just yesterday, but then a few days from now he is turning seven. Makes me think seriously about trying-to-conceive again real soon.

More mommies are bragging about their little ones firsts here. You can join in the fun, too.

Jian´s 7th Birthday Party

If my mom was still alive, she could have been very busy by now. The reason? his one and only apo is about to turn seven more than a week from now. I remember her telling Jian that she will do any means to have it done in Jian´s favorite food chain, Jollibee. But then, Mama is no longer here. So, I am left will all the tedious work of preparing for the party. The party will not be held in Jollibee. We decided to do it at our house. We have a spacious backyard (with a bahay kubo at that!) which perfectly fits the Safari theme that Jian wants. Yes, it could be more tedious this way but we can invite more if we do it at home instead of a food chain. It´s more of a do-it-yourself party as almost everything are being done by some members of the family. Good thing that I have 100% support from my husband about this. Let me just share with you the invitation which I made over the weekend. This will be printed by my cousin from one of the internet shops he normally frequented.


I just logged into an online scrapbooking site and have it done there. Ain´t it wonderful?
