BABY COMPANY'S BABY FAIR 2012

It's SALE once again! But now, it's time to buy things for the little ones! The moment I got an e-mail from Baby Company, I got too excited. Yes, too excited to see what's ON SALE to buy for my Don Yale.

BABY COMPANY GRAND BABY FAIR YEAR II- UP TO 70% OFF ON SELECTED ITEMS! (JAN. 27-29)...that's how the subject on the e-mail goes. And so, I can't help but tell my hubby to go there this Friday, Jan. 27th. We can't go on the 28th, yaya's going on a day-off and on the 29th, we're going home to Pampanga to attend to my friend's baby's christening. - And yes, you bet. Also one of the reasons why I went there is to buy a gift for my friend's baby. Actually 2 babies. One is for a baby girl's christening, and for Yale's ninang who also gave birth last Dec. 15. What a great time to buy things! :)

And so hubby and I went down to Megatrade Hall 2 at around 11:00 am. I registered on their booth, I'm a Mom Card member since May 2011 so I'm always updated with these events. A lot of Merchants are in- Avent, Pigeon, Huggies, EQ, Chicco, etc. I mean a lot! And their really giving out their items for at most 70% off. Imagine 2 teats of avents bottles that you can buy originally for Php 375.00, now is only for Php 190.00! That's a lot of savings!

So here is my dilemma now. Going on a sale period where you have a lot of choices to buy, but still can't decide on what to get! Hmmmm...I then purchased Yale's needs first. On my list: Cetaphil Liquid Moisturising soap and Celin for his vitamins. I don't need to purchase a lot because I have already stocked up on his nappies (Huggies Dry and Dry Comfort) and Pigeon wipes. After purchasing them, I already searched for things I can buy for the two baby girls. I then purchase an 8oz Disney bottles (3/pack), 1 pack of EQ Dry Comfort Diapers, 2 packs of pacifiers (2/pack), 2 packs of baby wipes. I decided to create a diaper cake for a christening gift (here again I can practice my skills for ART). I'll include the baby bottles in the middle. I will post the picture on my next blog. :)

This is the 2nd Baby Fair so far. And I'm lucky that being a first time mom, I was able to attend this time. Last year's was not a good time for me since I'm only 5 month pregnant. Most of the people who attended the fair were pregnant moms, families with kids. There are booths for kids like face painting, drawings and photobooths.

My husband and I are looking forward for next year's Baby Fair. We can bring our Don Yale and he'll definitely enjoy then since he would be over a year old by that time.

Great job for putting up an event like this Baby Company! My 5-stars for you! :)

Starbucks 2012 Planner

Let's take a break from mommy things (haha!) This is the only planner I got to concentrate on collecting stickers, I've got 4 in different colors! :)

Environment friendly as it is, the planner is cover with a thin wood-hard skin. Almost the same size with my Samsung Galaxy tab, which is very convenient to bring everywhere. It's so neat to look at. And I think I'm always inspired to write on every page of it. haha!

Well, back to mommy duties...I'm using the planner mainly because of the party planning idea- For Yale's 1st birthday! Yehey! It's barely 4 months to go! Got my suppliers, contacts, plans....everything on my planner. :)

                                                       Our 1st 2 Planners: Cherry and Oak
                                                          The Last Planner I got: Bamboo...

NEW YEAR 2012!!!

It's been a long time moms since I last posted a blog. I've been busy with the holidays, and of course with my baby boy. He's 8 months now, so active, playful and smart! :)

So far, the only problem that we had was with his 1st nanny: she never came back after the New Year's holiday that we gave her. :( But luckily, we found another one last January 9. An ex- OFW from Jordan, nice and kind. She knows how to take care of babies since she was also a nanny for more than 3 yrs with a baby girl whose family migrated to Canada just last year.

Not much problems now about my baby. I'm enjoying the time that he's playful, sweet, and his smiles! :)
