December Inspiration

Hello Blog. Page. Site. Journal. Still remember me? :)

I was online a couple of days ago and an ex-coworker pinged me. It has been a year since he visited my blog (yeah that long, he resigned Christmas week last year to get married). It struck me that there are still those who visit and remember.

I was also browsing through Ali's December Daily posts. Got me inspired to really get to starting my December Daily album this year. As I told a friend, it isn't every year that I get to experience Christmas while pregnant, why not document it. It will really be special.

Why do the Yuletide have this effect on people (or is it just hormones)?. I guess, it is the only time when we tend to push back our worries and just be merry, right?

So what else can I do but go over our Christmas pictures and reminisce. Look for the most interesting one I can find and update my blog. The photo in my header was one of our son's 2008 wishes. Hmmm. Santa (we) didn't get to grant it completely though I think he was pretty satisfied with the 5 Bacugans he received.

It's the first of December (another start, another beginning) and I am embarking in a lot of projects. I am (hopefully) going to finish these, now that I have more inspiration (I guess more like an inclination to use up my Christmas papers).

And so to all of you who still visit this page: "may you have the inspiration to accomplish a lot not just this Holidays but every day of the year." :)

it's been a while...

...and even i have to admit that i missed a lot by not going online. well, that's what happen when technology advances so fast that a few-years-old computer may be considered obsolete in just a short period of time. but good thing my brother is a computer expert and he was able to keep the thing running despite the fact that it wants to die on us already. hihihi.

i really hope that i could drop by and say hi to everyone who had been wishing me well. but if i fail to do so, this message goes out to you. :) {thank you for your concern}

off to some great news. we are 16 weeks into the pregnancy (yes! our JP is going to be a big - and we mean really BIG brother soon) and we are all so very excited. so far, we are coming along well aside from some required bed rest during the first trimester (that didn't contribute to much online activities either). but hopefully, everything will be smooth sailing (for my sanity's sake please, hihihi) i don't have a very nice pregnancy history so i really am keeping my fingers crossed that this time will be different.

and to all you out there, i wish you all well. i will leave you with a picture that amuses me lately. same pose different day of this pretty girl {i hope my baby will look as pretty as her, if i were to have a girl}.

i am 7!

bumming around

i love it when i have too much time on my hands. i get to read a lot. sleep a lot. scrap a little. listen to music. watch a lot of tv. but that rarely happens so a little time for myself is what i look forward to when hubby is at home to take care of the little one.

i have been in front of the computer for 2 hours and got to download all AI Season 8 studio recordings. Twilight music score. HSM 2 and 3 (for my son). got to see New Moon's trailer too.

off to transfer the music to my phone then i'll still have a little time to bloghop.

a wonderful mid-week greetings. keep safe (it has been rain.sun.rain.sun everyday since last week)

8 years today

and counting...

it has been years of struggle. disappointments. hardship. love. misunderstandings. trust. quarrels. romance. giving.

but i wouldn't have it any other way.

these make me happy

because i can rarely grab the camera these days

this kind of shot makes me smile...



while this makes me laugh...



and this makes me, happy

why do they grow up fast?

it feels like it was just yesterday when i gave birth to you.
and now that you are almost 7, you choose your own clothes and shoes.
fix your hair, yourself and already wear perfume.
how i miss the little you yet love every bit of the growing up you.



and as what i always tell you, no matter how big you get (bigger than mommy).
you will always be my baby.
