A lazy Sunday well spent.

As much as I love it when MBS is awake, I treasure these down moments when she's already asleep.

Cooked breakfast with My Husband this morning - the classic bacon and eggs :) I cooked the bacon; he cooked the eggs. MH has a real knack for cooking; he turns the simplest ingredients into restaurant-level dishes. In this case, it was the eggs - scrambled with pepper, salt, and green onions cooked to perfection :)

We cooked as Yaya gave MBS her morning bath. One of my favorite daily chores is picking an outfit for MBS, esp. when we plan to go out. This afternoon was scheduled to be spent at my parents' place. Today, I let MBS wear leggings with cow prints and a sleeveless onesie top paired with bumble bee shoes - the entire outfit pieces were hand-me-downs from my now 16 year old cousin. :)

During the car ride to my parents' place, MBS kept turning her head from MH to me. It was obvious that she was sleepy, but didn't want to miss a thing. MH dozed off after a few minutes and MBS kept staring at me. I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. When I opened them after a few seconds, MBS had closed her eyes as well. :) It seemed as if she was waiting for both MH and myself to doze off before she would sleep. :)

MBS kept staring at me.

Took a few pictures of MBS with her grandparents at their garden. I love seeing my parents play with MBS. You can see the love in their eyes. Seeing them together makes my heart overflow. :) My sisters and brother-in-law were also there, waiting for the arrival of MBS.

Simple Sundays like these are always special. Having MBS around makes these Sundays priceless. :)

Baguio City 2017 - Day 2

DAY 2 To start off the day, the little monkey woke up early to run around the grounds of St. Patrick Village. He had just finished his oatmeal breakfast, which I was able to cook at the comfort of the house we rented. This is the house we stayed in. Pathway leading to the exit A modern day Romeo and Juliet scene with the aunt Just as we were headed up to get ready for another exciting day, the little monkey's ears perked up when he heard a "Ta-hooooo!!!!" entering the village grounds. And boy, was I excited to find out that they offered another unique flavor - ube taho! What a way to start the day! :) Kuya Willie arrived a few minutes past 9am, and off we went to Baguio Botanical Garden. *Baguio Van Rentals provided their drivers with their own lodging, so Kuya Willie didn't stay with us (even though there was more than enough room; they have a driver's quarters just beside the garage). Family picture! The garden w...

Baguio City 2017 - Day 3

DAY 3 Here's a glimpse (with pictures) of what the inside of our rented house at St. Patrick looks like. The house can be rented for Php 18,000 a night. It was pricey for our small group, but would have been worth it for a bigger group. Room# 1 at Lower Ground CR inside Room # 1 Stairs going to the main floor Living room (Main door is on the right) Dining room just across the living room Kitchen (Pots and pans, knives, chopping board, plates, utensils, rice cooker, water dispenser with 5 Gal water, water kettle are all provided.) Room # 2 at Main floor CR just outside Room # 2 Stairs leading to 2nd Floor Room# 3: Master's Bedroom (there's a CR inside) Room # 4 across the Master's Bedroom (CR located beside the room) Stairs going to Attic St. Patrick Village was nice enough to hold my downpayment for 1 year. We were supposed to go last year, but we had a family emergency. I was really charmed by this place (...

Youji & Me Clearance Sale

While browsing Facebook, I chanced upon Youji & Me having a clearance sale ! :) I love clearance or warehouse sales. They mean 50% off the original price, or sometimes even more. :) It's too bad the company didn't give a clearance sale before MBS was born. If they did, it would've saved us a lot of money. The crib and playpen MBS uses now were both bought from Youji & Me by MBS's grandparents. From what i've gathered, it's part of Chinese tradition that the mom-side grandparents of the baby have to buy the crib. It's also tradition not to assemble the crib before the baby arrives. In our case though, we had the crib assembled when it was delivered to our place. We didn't put on the sheets yet though. We waited for MBS to come out before doing that. The initial plan was to put the crib at our place and the playpen at MBS's grandparents' place. However, both crib and playpen were put to use at our place. So, MH and I decided to bu...
