Team Kramer!

Hi everybody!I miss posting something here.
Anyway, I have a new addiction!

It's watching videos of the Kramer Family in Facebook.

 They're fan page is Team Kramer managed by Mr and Mrs. Doug Kramer.

I'm super hooked in watching their videos especially the videos of their kids, Kendra, Scarlett and Gavin.

They have such a beautiful family that you can feel the love in their home by just watching their homemade videos.


They have super cute and bibo kids. How I wish Meganne can speak well just like Kendra.

Gavin, their bunso, is just 5 days older than my Allodia that's why I can relate to their family in one way or another.

I also love the video that Kendra and Scarlett were playing and laughing like no tomorrow. When I first saw that video,I told myself that next year, Meganne and Allodia will be like that,always playing and hugging and running like there's no tomorrow.

I just really hope that they will put it in a website just like what they said in one of their status.

To Daug and Cheska, kudos to you guys. I can really see your love and care for your kids. You're a great example of a parent.

If you are being curious of what I'm talking about please just visit them in their fan page. That's it for now. Go #team Kramer!

Party Thougths

Hi everyone! Mr. Sun showed up early this morning here in Pasig.
Pero nagtago din agad. Umiyak ulit and langit. Good thing that it's not as heavy as the previous days.

Anyway, these past few days I've been thinking on what to do on my baby Allodia's 1st birthday.
Wala pang budget, pero alam mo na. Mas magandang magplano na para pag andiyan na ang pera, bayaran portion na lang.

TOP 3 PRIORITY THINGS IN THE PARTY
Venue. Wala pa pong venue. Ihuhuli ko na lang to. Kasi pag wala akong nakitang magandang deal for food baka I consider birthday parties in fast food na lang.

Food. Ooh-eemm-gee naman! Nakakaloka naman ang mga catering service ngayon. Pangmaharlika lang talaga. Kaya kung hindi fast food, baka magpaluto na lang ulit kami doon sa friend ni biyenan just like what we did on ate Meganne's 1st birthday. Masarap naman sila magluto plus wala pang hassle sa pagdeliver kasi kapit bahay lang sila ng mga biyenan ko. Yun lang, sana hindi sila fully booked sa birthday ng baby ko. December kasi ang bday ni Allodia eh. So baka maraming magpacater/magpaluto. I'm also checking some deals in Metrodeal and Ensogo. Kaya lang di pwedeng gamitin ang vouchers doon sa December. Sabi ko nga, marami kasing parties pag December. I'm also considering buffet restaurants. Depende kung may promo sila.

Cake. Ooh-eemm-gee ulit! Nakakaloka naman ang prices ng mga gumagawa ng fondant cake! They're so cute and fabulous pero super pricey. Hindi ko talaga magets kung bakit ang mahal mahal eh ang liit naman ng cake. Anyway I'm considering doing a DIY na lang. Pati cupcakes. Baka iDIY ko na lang.

OTHER THINGS that I'm still thinking if I will avail on my lil' girl's big day:
BALLOONS
TABLES AND CHAIRS
PHOTO BOOTH/PHOTOGRAPHER
CLOWNS/MAGICIAN/FACEPAINT/INFLATABLE SLIDE or SWIMMING POOL

Hay naku! Nakakapressure talaga pag 1st bday. |Plus dumagdag pa na christmas season ang bday ng baby ko.. Anyway I'm open for suggestions ha. Suggestions and recommendations are much appreciated. Thanks in advance!:)




 

Our helpful ate and my 8 months old baby

How's everybody?

I hope you are all fine and safe with your family.

Well, it didn't stop raining here since Sunday. But, it didn't stop me from washing our clothes as well.

Di ba nga I told you we just came home from Ilocos? So ibig sabihin I have loads of labahan to do.

It's a good thing that my little ate helped me in hanging our clothes. She's super willing to help and I'm lovin' it. Here's a video of my ate putting a shirt in a hanger.

Note: Di ko po siya pinilit. She's willing to learn so I taught her how to do it.

Aliw lang noh? I hope after 10 years she's still willing to help me doing the household chores. 

Another thing that makes me a proud mama of my little ate is that she knows how to use the mop. When she sees a puddle inside our house, she gonna grab the mop and wipe it. I even try to stop her at first but when she told me that, "Mommy, ako na. Ate na ak-ho.", I just let her do it. She's growing up so fast, indeed! Plus she's growing up so smart and responsible (despite of her being late in her language skills. I'll make another post about this). I'm so proud of you baby. You're still my baby no matter what.

Speaking of baby, my little Allodia just turned 8 months yesterday! That is so fast baby girl! It seems only yesterday when I can still feel you inside my tummy. But look at you now,

Oh, such a darling! She's so cute in that dress! Her ate used to wear that too when she's at her age.

I feel nostalgic now.

Anyway, since its my baby's birth month, we should celebrate, right?

We planned to buy a Braso de Mercedes in Red Ribbon earlier yesterday and just have it delivered here in our house para di na kami lumabas. But then when I called the Red Ribbon Delivery hotline, they told me that they can't do delivery in our place due to bad weather.

Then I watched the news, only to find out that Marikina River is on a critical level already!
Nagtaka pa talaga ako ha, eh magdamag ang ulan kaya malamang mataas na tubig doon.
That made me realized that the way going to Eastwood from our house is not passable anymore.

Red Ribbon Eastwood branch supposed to do the delivery cause its the nearest branch in our home that does delivery. So hindi na talaga sila pwedeng magdeliver cause they have to pass the floodway going to our house.
Another realization, siguro kaya di pa ako pinayagan ni God na magwork kasi He knew that this gonna happen. Ayaw lang niya siguro akong mastranded sa Eastwood(its where I'm supposed to work) kaya dinelay niya muna ang pag work ko. Okay. Thank You God!

Anyway, back to the story tayo. Siyempre, as a mother na hindi susuko para sa anak, may plan B ako. I tried searching Goldilocks, if they do delivery. Meron, they deliver. Pero when I try to call them using our telephone, wala na palang dial tone ang telephone namin. Nacut na ata ang line namin because of the weather.

Haaaays! So, plan C naman ako. My plan is to go to the Robinson's Supermarket near our place cause my baby daddy remembered that Simply Bread has a store there. So I got ready to go there. But when I went to our main road, its baha na pala already. Plus, there's no more tricycle going out of our subdivision anymore. Tsk, tsk.

So plan D tayo. Kailangan magcelebrate dahil 8 months na ang baby ko. I will feel really guilty kasi if we can't celebrate it. Ang sa akin naman kahit simple lang, basta malaman lang ng baby ko na sinelebrate namin ang birth month niya just like we used to do in her ate's first year noon. So eto na po ang plan D.

I just bought brownies in the bakery nearby our place. That's only for 20php. Tapos nilagayan ko lang ng candle. And PRESTO! Happy 8th month Allodia!

Supposed to be bibili pa ako ng stick-o and nips or cream stix pang lettering sana. Kaya lang isang buong 1000php bill ang hawak. Wala daw panukli kaya di na ako bumili. 

Hayaan mo anak. Babawi na lang kami sa birthday mo. We love you kahit ano pang mangyari. Tsaka di ba, ang importante eh yung magkakasama tayo,? Kasi pag magkakasama tayo, parang araw-araw PASKO! Mwah!
