26 Baby Sleep Solutions and HALO Sleep sack wearing :)

By esa
Browsing FB, I saw this article posted - the A to Zs of helping baby sleep. I read it and felt that it was a big help, so I'm sharing it with you all. :) 
According to the article, the ideal time to sleep for babies under 1 year old is 6:30-7:00pm. Yikes! MBS usually stays up until past 9:00pm. Uh-oh. 
However, the letter that caught my eye was letter E: 
(from http://www.parenting.com/gallery/baby-sleep-solutions?pnid=113632)
E Is for Empty the Crib
Keep the sleep surface free of everything but the cutest thing in the room, your baby. Blankets, bumpers and stuffed animals can be hazardous, increasing the odds of suffocation or choking. A fitted sheet is all he needs on his mattress. If you're worried about warmth, try a sleep sack instead of a loose blanket.
With that being said, I'm going to plug that I'm selling Halo sleep sacks. 

I bought the Halo sleep sack MBS is using before she was born. I saw it being sold in the Babypalooza bazaar that was held in Ateneo grounds early this year. I got curious about it and just bought it. I didn't know what a good investment I was making - and I say this without bias. :) 

MBS started using her sleep sack when she was 2 or 3 months old. It was heavenly. She started sleeping longer and became less fussy. I think it might have something to do with the warmth of the sleep sack fleece. With that, I use the sleep sack religiously every night. MBS is actually starting to outgrow her sleep sack, and I'll be getting a bigger size for her. :)

The reason why I decided to help sell Halo sleep sacks is simply because I found it REALLY helpful. And I want other moms to find out about it. :) It's helped MBS sleep longer nights, and made me a happy mommy. :) 

 If you're interested, you can check out the site - www.halophilippines.com - and leave me a message at eunicesabrina[at]yahoo[dot]com. :)

 Below are a few pictures and descriptions I got from the Halo sleep sack site describing its product:

I still have tons of things to adjust regarding the sleeping habits of MBS. I guess I'll need to go back to the A to Z list every now and then. 

 But at least, sleep sack = check!

Baguio City 2017 - Day 2

By esa
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

By esa
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 (...

Juicing with Juice Hut

By esa
My husband and I tried juicing a few days ago.  We ordered from Juice Hut , and tried their Midway Cleanse (2 days).  It was Php 2400 per head (+ delivery charges depending on your location) for 14 cold pressed juices and 2 bags of Yogi tea. However, we got Php 100 off since they ran out of thermal bags. We took in 7 bottles of cold pressed juices and 1 tea per day by following the cleanse guide we were provided with.  Their blends were really refreshing and yummy!  For their Detox blends, I liked their Cider Detox better than the Lemon Detox.  For Orange blends, the Eye Opener lives up to its name.  For the Green blends, I was just able to taste their Veggie Medley. It did not disappoint. For the Almond Milks, the Almond Matcha is a good choice.  I stayed strict throughout Day 1, but had some food on Day 2. My stomach wasn't prepared enough for the juicing. haha :) Also, one thing I noticed is that though I didn't f...
