Family Day

A family event in my little girl's school. One of the times I love..going with her school activity even after work and without getting enough sleep yet..That's what moms are for right?

What's Happening

My dad was recently hospitalized because of his ailing knees and fever for two weeks. He underwent a lot of laboratory tests to rule out some of possible causes of the symptoms. He went through a CT Scan testing, ECG and blood chemistry test but all resulted normal. Until now, we are still clue less of his sickness since findings are all negative. We thought that he would need to use ossur knee braces because he was not able to walk for a couple of days since his hospitalization but now at least he’s getting better. I was thinking if doctors on that hospital really know what he’s doing because he’s been there for a week already and still not able to diagnose his condition. I would vow I will not bring anymore patients to that hospital.

 

New Addition

This is late but I just want to post a picture of the new addition to our clan ;-)


Meet my new nephew...Aldrin Matthew, born last June 29, 2011 at 7pm... the same day as her mom's birthday. Isn't it nice? hehe. I was the one who assisted my sister since her hubby was not with her (working overseas). It was a tiring night but when I finally saw this cutie..all the effort was paid off.

Welcome to the family Aldrin! ♥

Fresh Air

I visited my sister in her new house last week. The house was nice and it was situated in a good community with lots of trees. The atmosphere is really relaxing. I’m thinking of purchasing also a house in that area because of the beautiful surrounding with clean, cool and fresh air. The only problem is that it’s quite far from the city. Families who would want to live here should own a car for accessibility. But for me, this is a good place to raise a family. Living the city with air pollution can be hard for the kids especially on health issues. I know of some friends who even have to buy Rabbit Air purifiers to have clean air. So we as well endure the long drive than risking our health right?

Should we buy a Bike?

My husband and I have been thinking about buying a motorcycle. It looks like fun, and it would give us something to do together when the grandparents take the kids for the weekend. I can just see it now! We'll put on our helmets, and take off for the day. It won't take hardly any gas as we travel around the countryside and see it all. I can already feel the wind in my face, and the feel of the bike as I hold on while we take the curves.

We just have to figure out which one we can afford. I was looking at the motorcycle insurance policies, and I was pleasantly surprised by how affordable they were. Because the motorcycle isn't very likely to cause much damage to another vehicle, the liability part was really cheap. I'm not sure why the comprehensive part was cheap, too. Of course, a new bike is pretty expensive. Maybe we'll look at the used ones instead.

It's also a great excuse to go shopping. In addition to helmets, we'll need jackets and other protective clothing. I'll even get to go shoe shopping for new motorcycle boots. Just picture it! We'll be all decked out in black leather on the back of that bike. There's no way I want to end up with road rash if we drop the bike. You know what they say about new riders; it's not a matter of if you drop the bike, but when. I'm not looking forward to it, but they say it is bound to happen.

Next time you see us, we might just be on the back of our new bike. There won't be any need to be jealous. If it looks like fun, you can always go out and get your own bike. We'd love to have someone else to ride with!

Big Step

My husband and I have been discussing lately about our future. Since we’ve agreed that I should leave my job and be a SAHM (stay at home mom), we knew that it would definitely affect our financial fort polio. This was really a big decision that we made and we know that this is going to be very challenging. W e also knew that we cannot just rely fully on his income so we have to really plan our future. He’s suggesting that we should put up a small business to start with. We are also looking into a good investment to secure the future of the kids. So now, we are on the search of an investment that we can afford. I’ve actually read some articles about those who buy gold bullion and invested it. I’m also looking into the possibility that we can also enter the gold market. After all, gold is said to be the wisest and safest investment now.

Dad and the Kids

I love looking at them..

WW: My Joys.

This are a few pictures that I love. It's a bonding moment between my husband and our kids. Hubby was changing MJ's diaper with a little help from our daughter. I really enjoyed watching them.
