Speaking of birthday parties, I know of some people who are asking why I am spending so much for my daughter's first birthday party which she will not even remember. So impractical daw. One, obviously this party is not mainly for Anika. Half of it is a celebration / thanksgiving for her one year existence and half of it is for Nanay and Tatay to show her off to family and friends. Two, that is what the videographers are for, duh! Videos and pictures to show her what we did for her birthday. Three, we can use our hard earned money for whatever reasons we want. As long as we don't bother anyone for our everyday needs so that we can have something for our luho, I think they should better leave us alone. Besides, anything for Anika is not a waste of money or time.
One of these people is Wowa. We had our birthday parties daw before at home lang. Ay chaka! Di ko type. How can I fit naman a hundred people, magicians, face painter, balloon maker, etc in our tiny house?! She was kinda bothering me already so I told her, "I know you think I am not capable of making ipon for something, but I have changed now. I have a daughter already and no matter what happens, I am going to make tipid and save up so that I can give her a bonggang party!" That hit home and made her quiet for a while, then she asked, "Magkano ba toka ko dyan sa party ng apo ko?!" Hay! Grandmoms! haha!

I'll never ever going back to Fix Salon in Glorietta for hair treatment. I just had my hair relaxed last July and now (it's only October), my hair looks like that of Snooky Serna before the snakes come out of them in the movie Zuma.

I need to learn to relax. Not the vacation kind of relaxing but the basic kind of relax. I am too anxious about anything to a point I don't get to enjoy everyday moments. For example, when we are at home and spending time with Anika, I fidget around the room so much that in the end, I don't really get to spend quality time with her. I check her stuff if she's running out of supplies or something. I am OC with the dusts and dirt on the bed that I keep on making palpag. I keep on fixing her hair. I make sure that she doesn't see the TV whenever hubby's watching. See the problem here?

In total, I have four careers. I am a Civil Engineer, a Wife, a Mother and a Blogger. First and foremost, I am a mother. Hubby understands that at this time, Anika comes before anything. Kaso sometimes, everything becomes overwhelming. I felt it the most this weekend. I have been so busy with work that first time in my entire 30 years, I brought home work. I had to finish two reports that makes my nose bleed. This is also the same time we decided not to make Girlie sleep in our room with us. I want to be full time with Anika at least at night. This is also the time when Alvin, Girlie and our househelp Elvie had colds. This is also the time my wisdom tooth decided to come out, not on it's supposed space but in my gilagid. Seriously. Nakakawindang!!!

We listen to Good Times with Mo every morning at the radio station 89.9. One thing we learned from him is that married couples should not call each other, "Daddy", "Mommy", "Nanay", "Tatay". It kills the romance in the relationship. He's right. Now we resumed calling each other Babe even if we are in front of Anika.
agree! anything for our kids tsaka sarap kayang magconceptualize ng party.. was asking hubby earlier what theme sa binyag and bday ni baby, to think di pa ko buntis! kaloka ganun ako kaexcited.
