Happy Birthday Mama!

Hi guys! Musta? I just want to greet my mama a very very happy birthday! Wishing you good health and all the best in life. I love you so much ma though di ko nasasabi sa iyo palagi. Thank you for always being there, when I was pregnant ikaw yong nagsabi kay papa na buntis ako dahil tako akong ipaalam kay papa kasi alam ko magagalit sya. But in the end it turns out well. When I need you the most, you are there behind my back. You are a friend, a mother, a critic all roled into one.

Celebration.

Hi good day! Kumusta na kayo guys? It's my birthmonth this month. Birthday din ng papa ko at death anniversary ng lolo ko. So, madami-daming kainan to. Need to exercise more para di tumaba ng bongga. Osha guys hanggang dito na muna kasi gawa muna ako ng report ko. Until my next post!

Nakaboto na ba kayo?

Good morning guys! How was your weekend? Nakaboto na ba kayo?

I was up early kasi boboto nga and i have to go to work pa after. Kahit holiday mkay work kami. Haizt! Since we are yayaless today because our yaya took a leave to vote. I was forced to be up early para di malate. I was up at 5am then do the laundry, cooked breakfast, clean the house, and wash the dishes after we ate our breakfast. After that I prepared Zeke because he will come with me since we're yayaless nga. Iiiwan ko muna sya sa parents ko while I'm at work then I'll fetch him na lang after work. #Stress. Pero I'm still happy pa rin kasi may bonding kami mag-ina.

Side kwento habang pauwi kami kagabi sa bahay galing sa bahay ng mga magulang ko. May checkpoint kaming nadaanan bigla ba namang nag-salute sa mga pulis. He was very happy kasi the policemen salute back to him. And he said when he grows up daw he wants to be a policeman like them. 

Zeke's first school activity.

Hi guys! Musta naman?

Last thursday we celebrated children's month sa school ni Zeke. He participated sa modern dance nila so I took a leave from work to witness kung sasayaw ba or magtatantrum sya doon. Luckily nagperform naman sya.

At nakasecond place pa sila. They danced in the tune of Whoops Kiri Whoops. Cute masyado tingnan. Hopefully I can upload the video here pero sa cellphone lang kasi na video gamit ko so hindi ganun kaganda tingnan. Thats it folks? Share naman din yong school activity ng mga babies nyo.

Yuri's 3rd birthday!

Haallloooo guys! How's your week-end? Ako eto nasa duty pero I'm happy naman kasi tomorrow is sunday no work for me. Yippeeee!

On the other side last thursday we went to Yuri's birthday and Zeke's so happy kasi it was held san pa kundi sa Jollibee. It's our first time to attend a Jollibee party so we have to attend talaga para naman maexperience ni Zeke how it goes. Thanks to Bunsoy for inviting us. It's raining pa when we arrived sa city then papuntang venue. Zeke's so giddy when he saw Jollibee. Di mapakali talaga at kilig na kilig. Buti na lang di sya natakot kay Jollibee.

Sad..

I'm feeling sad today guys. My husband's grandfather passed away last October 7, 2013. Matanda na kasi sya and we're expecting already na he will be gone. Kasi bed ridden sya right after his birthday. But on the other part we're happy na rin kasi at least he didn't suffer from sickness like anyone else, and now he can rest na with our Almighty. Close masyado ang kanyang mga apo sa kanya. I think he's the coolest lolo kasi he can jive sa mga teens ngayon. he was able to bond sa kanyang mga apo during his younger years. Whenever may celebration the celebration is not complete without him. Now ang mga apo nya ang nagfafacilitate ng wake nya. All of his apo are there during night time kahit na may work pa kinabukasan they stay up late for their lolo.  To lolo Ayong you will be miss lolo and we love you to the moon and the back!!

On viral exanthem

Hi guys! How are you? Zeke has a rash all over his body now. It started last Monday night and until now di pa rin nawawala. Nagpacheck-up na kami sa pedia nya and she said viral exanthem daw yon.


According to Mr. Google:
An exanthem is any eruptive skin rash that may be associated with fever or other systemic symptoms. Causes include infectious pathogens, medication reactions and, occasionally, a combination of both. In children, exanthems are most often related to infection and, of these, viral infections are the most common. 

According to http://www.mommyfleur.com/2012/10/14/viral-exanthem/

Measles, German measles, Roseola, and many other viruses can cause a rash along with fever and other symptoms. This is a mild viral illness that causes a low-grade fever and light rash for 2-3 days. Uncomplicated viral exanthems are treated with bed rest, plenty of fluids, and paracetamol. Most of the time the rash clears up within 7 to 14 days as the rest of the symptoms improves. Blood platelet counts may show a little decline to normal values, but continued decrease in its count may point to a more serious infection.

You can pass virus infections on to others through being in close contact, so stay away from other people as much as possible until you are better. Call your doctor if you are not better after 4-5 days, or if you become worse You should see a doctor right away if you have a severe headache, a high fever, repeated vomiting or breathing probles.

Hopefully Zeke will be well soon. Buti na lang walang pasok sa school kaya makakapagpahinga sya ng husto. Hopefully sa monday when he return to school no more rashes na. Haizt!

The black shoes searching is on!

Hi guys! How are you? Ako eto medyo ok na. Wala ng ubo and sipon thank god! Well, I'm looking for a black shoes for Zeke's school. He already had his uniform kasi but the problem is wala pa syang shoes na black. He kept asking me bakit daw di black ang shoes nya sa mga classmate nya daw black ang shoes. Actually black ang shoes nya but in chuck taylor type not the usual leather shoes. So eto ngayon I'm looking for one so he will stop bugging me about his shoes. Any idea guys where can I find a cheap one? I'm on a budget these days eh:)

My baby was hospitalized again.

Hi guys! I know, I know tagal ko din di nakapagpost no? Anyways, Zeke got hospitalized again last week. Last sunday (Aug. 8, 2013) he has fever na then kala ko naman simple fever lang so pinainom ko ng paracetamol. He's fine naman in the morning he play, eat, until after lunch pinatulog ko na sya kasi nap time nya na while I'm doing some chores sa house I saw Zeke na sa bed na parang nanigas. I got scared kasi convulsion na pala yon. I immediately called my father in law then we brought him na sa hospital. Then binigyan kami ng lalagyan ng ihi nya and poop for the lab test daw yon. He got amoebiasis pala kaya nagpaadmit na ako kasi baka magconvulsion naman malayo pa naman ang house namin sa hospital. He kept on pooping until monday. Buti na lang on tuesday medyo maayos na ang poop nya so we were discharged by wednesday. Naman! Our bill was 8,000. Imagine 4,000 lang ang kaltas ng philhealth. My ged! But I'm really glad that he's fine already. Hopefully no more hospitalization will occur again. Nakakatrauma ang iyak ng bata pagkakita pa lang ng nurse at injection. Kayo guys how are you?

Beach, beach din pang may time

Hello guys! Last sunday we go to the beach together with my in-laws. I'll share some photos ha?

Kitang-kita naman how happy the kiddos while on the beach diba? We try to go to the beach every sunday to make Zeke's lungs stronger. Swimming is good sa may mga hika daw kasi eh that's why we are applying it ti Zeke malay nyo naman it will do good sa kanya. Hopefully in God's time Zeke will be free from asthma. :)

Thank God!

Hi guys! Sorry for being MIA for these past few days. My son was hospitalized last July 31-August 2, 2013. Pabalik-balik kasi ang lagnat plus he got cough, runny nose and walang gana sa food. So nagpa out patient muna kami sa hospital kasi walang vacant na room. We underwent CBC for almost every 24hours to monitor his platelet, thank God it's normal. His new pedia suspected that it's pneumonia She said we can treat him at home. So, she gave us some medicines that Zeke will going to take.Come friday night, after few attacks of asthma red rashes appeared on his eyes surface so we decided to admit him in the hospital. But, thank heavens it's not dengue naman daw. Pressure lang daw nong paulit-ulit nyang pag-ubo. So CBC ulit to checked if his platelet is normal, the result says normal so nadischarge kami by friday. We transfered na nga to our new pedia. Our new pedia now is much approachable and she explains thoroughly what is the problem. Unlike our old pedia I want to change pedia since baby pa si Zeke, but since I don't have much time to search for a new one kaya we stick to her. Thank God kung di pa naospital anak ko di namin makikilala new pedia namin. As of now Zeke's been taking Sangobion anemic kasi sya ayun sa lab test nya. Hopefully everything will be alright after 1month.

Sharing you photos of Zeke the day after we got out at the hospital. Sinong mag-aakala na galing sa ospital at sakit yan divah? hmmmm. He's going crazy over flying the kite until now.

In applying as a brand ambassador at Zalora

Hi guys! It's saturday and I'm still at work. Maulan pa naman ang panahon ngayon which makes me wanna go home and cuddle Zeke in our bed. This weather makes me so lazy. Di ko nga feel magwork eh but for some reasons eh kailangan to be at work. On the other hand, please pray for me as I was applying a while ago to be a brand ambassador at Zalora. Sana naman matuloy guys! Medyo matagal na din akong patingin-tingin sa kanilang mga items for sale. Hopefully one of these days I'm able to buy my wishlist from them. Sayang din the privilege that you'll get eh. Kayo guys? How was you saturday so far?

Our cheap finds last sunday.

Lat sunday when we are strolling at the mall I saw some piles of children clothes in the lobby and spotted the sign that they were on sale. So I rush there and checked kung may fit ba kay Zeke. And may kasya nga sa kanya and the good news pa eh it's only 85pesos. Steal na steal diba.

Garfield Tshirt at 85.00

Collie shoes for 185.00

Storybooks from Booksale for 35.00 each

What a steal right? Plus Zeke was so happy pa. A happy baby is a happy mother. Kayo guys how was your sunday?

Poorita for 15days.

Hello guys! Napakamalas ko today. I was about to withdraw my salary from one of the machine but walang perang nilabas yong machine. And when I inquired the money I withdraw was credited already sa account ko. Haizt! So, I report it to the guard on duty immediately he advised me to go to the nearest BDO to report the incident. I withdraw at one of the mall here in Gensan. So, off to went to SM kasi don yong pinakamalapit na BDO bank. They told me that I have to monitor for 48hours ang account ko to check if nabalik na ba yong pera. If not, I have to wait for 3-5days before the money will be back. They have to investigate pa daw the report. Wish me luck guys, hopefully it will be back na.

Punta Isla Resort after our falls visit

After we saw the Falls we go to Punta Isla Resort to have lunch and to rest na rin, Kasis Zeke was being grouchy na that time because it's past his nap time na.

You see naman Zeke's face diba? Paawa effect lang. He is so sleepy na kasi but he didn't sleep naman when we are in Punta Isla all he do is running everywhere, watch the tilapia in the pond. He got to sleep only when we are going home. Nakatulog sa sasakyan. The weather kasi is cold kasi it's raining. When you are in lake Sebu mnake sure to bring umbrella because there are part of Lake Sebu na umuulan tapos sa kabilang barangay naman is mainit. Also bring your jacket to keep you warm the weather kasi sa Lake Sebu is cold I think just like Tagaytay. Though di ko pa natry ang weather sa Tagaytay kasi I've never been there.

Our Lake Sebu trip

Hi guys! Musta naman? I will post our Lake Sebu trip it's a late post kasi Zeke's just a year old here. As I was browsing the camera I found our Lake Sebu trip thinking you might also like to read our trip. Wishing that I have readers pero sa totoo lang I don't have any. :) Here's our photo below.

 Nakakawala ng pagod pag makita mo na ang falls. There are 7falls in Lake Sebu but we only visited the first falls kasi it's so tiring to walk down. They also have zipline, native T'boli weaving some cloths, Bird watching, Eco-trekking, Water Tubing. Thera are also resorts around Lake Sebu where you can dine and sleep if you want to have an overnight there.

Checking out the newest mall in town

Hi guys! Last saturday (June 29, 2013) was the opening of the newest mall here in GenSan that's the Veranza Mall it's located beside KCC Mall. By the way KCC mall and Veranza Mall has the same owner (yaman nila noh?). So on sunday we checked what's inside the Veranza Mall. Sa mga advertisements kasi nila Veranza daw is a green mall which I think is true naman they have falls outside and has a garden on their rooftop.

That's Zeke he really wants to take his picture sa may falls. Sorry sa picture di nabigyan how nice the falls is. If you're with a toddler goodluck na lang sa pagkuha ng magandang view. Anyway I'm planning to go back there maybe during night time to capture the nice angle (teehee). I wasn't able to tour around kasi may son kept running everywhere I was afraid baka malingat ako at mawala sya. Pero the boutique inside is from Luzon pa.

Mama, Zeke and Mark my brother.

Prayers please!

Hi guys! Please pray for my mother in law, she's in the hospital right now. She will undergo an operation this saturday if we can provide the 4bags of blood for her operation..May tumor kasi sya sa may brain nya di na sya nakakakita. She can see but blur yong nakikita nya. She was advised to have a CT Scan and later MRI. Then the readings of the doctor is may tumor nga sya and she need to undergo operation para makakita ulit sya. So guys please pray for her that she will be well soon.

Zeke's 1st school activity

Presenting Zeke's first school activity. (drum roll) 

He got a star! 

Zeke's first day in school

Zeke starts na his nursery yesterday. I wasn't able to send him to school because I'm not able to file a leave from work. Here's his picture enjoying his first day in school.

 The boy beside him is his cousin "Budong". He is also his classmate.

Zeke having fun on the slide in their school. 

The Sunday that was!

Hi guys! After of our Gumasa escapade last saturday, on sunday we go to my mother's house na naman early in the morning. That's our every sunday routine. Wala namang ginagawa sa bahay ng mama ko, tambay-tambay lang until gumabi na. We are just waiting for hubby to out from work then sabay-sabay na kaming uuwi sa bahay namin. So tiring diba? Pero kasi Zeke misses her lola that's why I see to it that every sunday we got to their house. Para makabond na rin nila si Zeke. Which is okay naman kasi Zeke's getting closer with my parents. O sya guys balik trabaho na naman tayo. Till next week guys! Comment naman kayo, pasensya na kung di ako maganda magsulat ha? Di naman kasi ako manunulat. I just used this blog para diary ko na rin and to share my thoughts.

First Sarangani Bay Experience

Having fun in the sun! Last saturday May 25, 2013 we go to Gumasa, Glan, Sarangani Province to witness the Sarangani Bay Festival. It's our first time to witness this event so we are all excited to go there. The travel took 1hour  from Alabel to Gumasa. Masyadong mainit but we enjoy the day though. Zeke had so much fun running in the sand.

Zeke's having so much fun running and playing in the sand. Hubby and me took a leave from work to attend this event syempre with our bagets tagged along. Kawawa naman kasi kung iiwan diba? Our yaya took a leave also because she wants to go home daw kesa to go with us. Which I truly understand kasi she misses her family na daw though every sunday umuuwi naman sya. It's our time na din to bond with our bagets without yaya. And we go home happy and tired. So, we doze off to bed early. Kayo guys how was your weekend? Share naman kayo. :)

Rant of a toddler

Hello mga mommies! Earlier when I'm preparing to work pumasok ang binata naming maliit sa room. He asked me where will I be going. I told him that I will go to work. Bigla namang nagreklamo ang bagets, "Lagi na lang kayo work, work ng work". My heart melts when he said this. Nakakaiyak kasi our son keeps ranting on us kasi we are always working, though Sunday wala akong work but I think Sunday is not enough. He is on the stage that asking so many questions and I can't be there to answer al his questions. That's why I'm so thankful to Lalay his nanny because sya yong nagpupuno ng mga time na wala kami sa house mag-asawa. Though I explain naman to Zeke why we have to work. But at his stage of mind I think he can't understand pa. Pero sa katagalan ng explanation naman he let me go to work and promised me that he wil behave and be a good boy. Haizt! Working mom is so hard but I need to for our family and myself na din. I think I will go insane if I won't work. Kayo guys ganyan din ba mga toddlers nyo?

Bumoto ng tama!

Good morning guys! On monday ay botohan na sana bumoto tayo ng tama. Wag natin pagbili yong boto natin kasi our future depends on who we vote. Haizt! Sana lang yong mga politician na manalo ay tama talaga. We need pagbabago sa politics guys.

On the other hand Mother's day is coming! Woohoo! Ano kaya magandang gift para sa mgamudrabelles ano? Kayo may mga gift na ba? Happy Mother's day in advance mga Mother's as I might not be able to greet you on Mother's day kasi Sunday yon. And Sunday is our family day though ako at si Zeke lang ang magfafamily day. Kasi my husband works in a mall.

Godbless sa voting day! :)

Labor day!

Hello guys! How was your Labor  Day? Ako, ayun bebang mode. Naglinis ng bahay, naglaba ng comforter, pillow cases, kurtina. Then by afternoon I did grocery shopping. Doing grocery with a toddler in tow is not easy ha? Plus I did not bring the yaya pa with us kasi I want to bond with my son. Pero chox lang kasi Zeke's not so pasaway naman sa grocery. Kayo guys musta naman? Comment naman kayo.:)

Reports..Reports..Reports..

Hi guys! How are you? I'm kinda busy today. Monthly reports kasi kaya busy busy ang peg. Plus it's so hot these days, sira pa ang aircon sa office. Haizt! Hopefully next week maayos na aircon namin di pa kasi dumating ang pinaorder na parts eh. Aside sa reports I'm having a problem din with one of our customer kasi papa-DTI nya na daw kami. Her laptop kasi is nasira since it's under warranty pa so we sent it to the authorized service center to have it checked. But, it's been a month and a half and her unit is di pa ayos. Kasi after they diagnose the unit may ibang sira na naman they can't release naman daw the unit kung may nakita pa silang sira. Until now di pa dumadating yong pinaorder na parts. Una they ordered mainboard kasi mainboard daw ang sira then when the mainboard arrived, sira na naman daw ang flex cable, when the flex cable arrived, sira na naman daw ang LCD so they ordered the LCD na naman na until now di pa dumadating. Kaloka! So si customer is so mad na kasi antagal na ng unit nya sa service center yet di pa rin ayos. Goodluck to me talaga! Negativity to the highest level talaga!

Beat the heat this summer!

Hi guys! So hot these days noh? Zeke nga wants to take a bath halos every minute kasi naiinitan daw sya. Tapos ang dali pa nyang pagpawisan. Bagong paligo pero after few hours amoy pawis na. So, here's what I gonna do to beat the heat.

Oh, Diba matipid na kasi sa bahay lang and enjoy pa sya. Pasensya na kung marumi ang tiles ha, the result of having no househelp. Sunday ko lang ata nalilinis ng maayos ang bahay namin minsan nga hindi pa. Haizt!

Seems like he is enjoying his mini pool. Dati may inflatable pool sya pero sira na may butas na kaya dyan na lang muna sya.

Centrio Mall

Last April 17, 2013 we made gala at the Centrio Mall after the meeting. Unwind kumbaga kasi our meeting went smoothly with no negative reaction form our boss. Though our sales was very low, as in nakapakalow!

That's our picture taken at the entrance of Centrio Mall with my co-employees. All smile na diba kasi tapos na ang meeting.

This is naman my solo picture. Ang taba ko noh? Haizt! How will I lose weight kaya? Any suggestions guys?

Our airport experience.

Hi guys! I'll make a short kwento lang about our airport expereince last April 18, 2013. Muntik na kaming masarhan ng gate kasi we checked in late na rin. Our flight is 6PM pero we arrived at the airport at 5:10PM, so pila-pila pa para makakuha ng boarding pass. By the time we got our boarding pass the aircraft has landed na so dali-dali kaming magbayad ng terminal fee. Imagine naman we travelled with our office uniform the meeting kasi lasted 4:30PM, so ayun muntik ng malate pagdating sa airport. Buti na lang GOD is with us nakaabot pa din.

A very tiring day!

Hi guys! Pasensya for not blogging often ha? I just arrived from Cagayan de Oro kasi that's why I wasn't able to blog kasi busy-busyhan sa quarterly report namin. Anyways our meeting went through smoothly naman. Kahit na our sales is very mababa compared last year. I don't know why ang hina ng sales namin ngayon. May hint ba kayo mga mothers? Tingin ko kasi halos lahat they have their own desktop in their home, possible ba?:) Actually I don't have any idea talaga guys. Can you help me what's the reason behind?

Zeke's 3rd birthday!

Zeke's 3rd birthday concept is "The Cars". At first di ko talaga gusto gumastos ng malaki sa balloons but my friend says "minsan lang naman magbibirthday anak mo so, indulge mo na sa gusto nya." Kaya ayun we spent on balloons pero nice naman ang outcome di ba? I think teehee. And I saw naman on Zeke's face that he is happy.

This is naman his cake from Nanette's Cakes recommended by my friend also. Then, I saw naman sa page nila that they have good review sa product nila.

Our food was not that bongga because we had a tight budget kasi katatapos lang magkasakit ni Zeke nyan plus hika nya pa.

Quarterly Report Preparation!

Haizt! It's our quarterly report on April 17, 2013. I have to go at Cagayan de Oro city again to report our Sales, Expenses, etc. Kung ako lang I don't wanna go sa meeting kasi I will be away for a few days then andun pa Boss namin. That's why I'm scared to report due to some errors I've made. Like yong sa technician namin they're terminated because sumasideline kahit sa loob ng office. Receiving some tips from the customers, do repair without giving the payment to the cashie in short nasa bulsa nila ang bayad ng customer which is very wrong and bawal sa rules namin. Sorry, kung I'm rambling now I don't know talaga what to write eh.:(

How was your Holy Week goes?

Hi guys! How was your Holy Week? Kami, we just stay in our house. Nag general cleaning kami nong Thursday. You know na we don't have househelp so we do the chores. Isa pa poor kami wala pambayad sa househelp. Then, pinauwi ko pa yaya ng baby ko so, bebang and yaya ako the same time. But, it's fun though nakakapagod lang maghabol sa isang toddler. And, I did some grocery by saturday with my baby of course, Ayun, doing grocery with a toddler in tow is not easy ha? Kakaloka the feeling ng habol ng habol with the pushcart with you. Tapos di ka pa makapagsuklay haizt! Pero we did have a great time naman parang bonding na din. Kudos to those stay at home mom talaga kung ako lang baka naloka na ako. Then we heard mass nong sunday. Yon lang our Holy Week is so simple yet fun.

My son can draw!

I am just proud to share to you guys Zeke's first drawing ever! 

Sentro 1850 Restaurant at Cagayan de Oro City

Sentro 1850 is Fine Dining Restaurant in Cagayan de Oro City. It's conveniently located at the center of the city ("sentro"). They serve a mix of Asian and Continental Cuisines that's mouth-watering and surely makes you come back and ask for more with prices that are easy on the pocket. 

I ordered their Ima's Lechon Kawali. It is a deep fried pork belly, crunchy in the outside but very soft in the inside. Their serving is huge, I didn't finish it sa laki!

Ima's Lechon Kawali

After that we headed to Divisoria at the center also of Cagayan de Oro City. It turns festive at night time. There are so many food stalls at the street at a very affordable price.  After strolling for a while we headed on Willshire where we stay. We have to sleep early because we will go to Jatico Adventure. After that we will be heading to airport for our flight back home. Yey!
