updates

ob trip..

so far so good. everything's ok with the baby. just got a little stressed and my uterus has gone tense. so was advised to drink meds for a week to relax my uterus and back to the ob for another check up.

in other news...

i'll be on a bit of a blog leave since i have to attend to some matters and would require a lot of my time. so check back once in a while na lang. but don't forget to leave some love in my tag board. =)

promise, i'll be back soon. =)

i'm off to my ob today.. for an unplanned check up.

my lower abdominal area and my back has been hurting since last night for reasons i don't know. this morning i thought the painwould just go away and it might be just gas. but it has been a bit bothering me after i have eaten my lunch. actually the pain became worse while i was having lunch. this time i knew the pain wasn't in my tummy but where the baby is. as much as i am trying to calmly writing this entry, i'm a nervous wreck deep inside.

as much as i want to lessen my absences, this is unavoidable. this is concerning my baby already. so there's no choice.

just waiting for my dad to come and fetch me.

i hope after seeing my ob, everything would be ok and just a little rest would be needed...

don't worry, i'm ok. i hope the baby is too...

kyle's lullaby song..

sing or play this song to kyle and he's off to dreamland...

have a listen here:

kyle's lullaby

even i love this song. such a soothing aura especially after a tiring day. =)

artist: Isreal Kamakawiwo ole
his ukelele version of somewhere over the rainbow/what a wonderful world can be heard in the Finding Forrester soundtrack..

and the lyrics, of course:

Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooo... Oooo... Oooo...Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooooooo...
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high,
And the dreams that you dreamed of, Once in a lullaby.
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly,
And the dreams that you dreamed of,
Dreams really do come true.
Someday, I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where trouble melts like lemon drops,
High above the chimney top,
That's where you'll find me.
Oh, somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly,
And the dreams that you dare to.
Oh why, oh why can't I?
Well, I see trees of green and red roses too,
I'll watch them bloom for me and you.
And I think to myself: What a wonderful world!
Well, I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white,
And the brightness of day.
I like the dark and I think to myself:
What a wonderful world!
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky,
Are also on the faces of people passing by.
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, " I...I love you!"
I hear babies cry, and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more than we'll know.
And I think to myself: What a wonderful world!
Someday, I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where trouble melts like lemon drops,
High above the chimney top,
That's where you'll find me.
Oh, somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high.
And the dreams that you dare to,
Oh why, oh why can't I..?

happy picture of the day


don't tell me that this smile won't make your day...

took this picture when i was putting kyle to sleep. then i had the urge to check my phone which woke him up and so i thought to take a photo of kyle and he was surprisingly game for the photo. with all out smile pa kahit antok na antok na. basta talaga may camera noh... hehehe

kyle moments...


lock and key

what a little smart boy!!




having fun with his little noise maker out of a tissue holder thingie ^_^

inspired by the nazi

you'll know who the nazi is if you're a fan of grey's anatomy...

anyway, i got a funny hirit from her since i have been experiencing a lot of weird looks lately. which i noticed when we were at a mall last saturday and i was still wearing my normal clothes although my belly has been a bit obvious already. the irritating part was i caught a few stares from other people, particularly those teeny bopper kiddies. their looks were saying something like this: " ang kapal naman, ang laki laki naman ng tummy masikip pa rin ang suot"

well bwahahaha to them then.

so while hearing mass, an idea came. i just have to find someone who can do it... and i thank those teeny bopeer kiddies for this idea. i will create a shirt that says:

" i'm pregnant, you blind moron..."
just have to find someone kind enough to print me a shirt that says that. =P
and in the next months to come, i'm sure i can come up with more shirt slogans for those preggy women out there... and maybe this can turn into a business. hmmm...

bakit?

bakit may mga tao na sadyang walang pake sa rules? sa building kasi namin, bawal mag yosi sa fire exit pero naman, lagi na lang kami nakakaamoy ng yosi dun sa may fore exit na malapit sa area namin. and proven naman ng mga security guards dito sa building namin na meron ngang mga ganun pero may ginawa ba sila? wala! tuloy pa rin ang mga nagyoyosi a few floors below and above ours. mga call center kasi. minsan wala nang regard sa mga rules. porket may baong pekeng accent eh ganun na lang sila umasta. (no offense sa mga nagtatrabaho sa mga call centers pero sa totoo lang may mga ka uri kayong mga walang modo. porket nag train para magkaroon ng accent kala mo na kung sinong mga magagaling. san naman ang tungo ng career nyo pag nag resign kayo o kaya ma-retrench? kamusta naman yun? san na kayo dadalhin ng mga yabang at accent nyo?)

anyway, back to the yosi thing... aminado ako, smoker ako. pero i make sure naman na to smoke in areas that are designated. hindi lang basta-basta kung saan lalo na kung public place. nakakahiya rin naman sa mga non smokers. tulad ko ngayon na non smoker. i truly appreciate those smokers na may respect din sa mga non smokers. alam nila kung san sila lulugar. tsaka alam nila ang tamang pag buga (meron ba nun?) basta yung hindi direct sa mukha ng tao at as much as possible not in the direction ng may tao. at least kahit paano eh maiiwasan ang pag punta ng usok sa tao. sorry na lang kung mag iba ang direction ng hangin. mahirap na ma-control yun.

kahit naman nasabihan ko na ang mga guards dito, wala rin silang magawa kundi tignan ang mga upos at dulo ng yosi na naiwan sa mga hagdanan ng mga salarin. mahirap lang talaga silang mahuli. kahit na ang lakas mag echo ng staircase na yun, wala kang maririnig na ingay. mga sneaky little boys and girls ang mga yun. naisip ko rinkung hindi lang mga taga call center ang mga gumagawa nun, what if mga professionals pa. mga matataas ang position at trabaho, hindi ba mas nakakahiya yun? lalabas na wala silang breeding at kulang sila sa courtesy.

mahiya naman di ba na mag yosi sa loob ng building na centralized ang air con at siyempre hindi agad nawawala ang amoy ng yosi sa lugar.

haaay... kakahiya lang talaga. sa totoo lang

notice anything?

kyle's first picture:
kyle was i think 5 months old in the pic. so his features were more prominent. dyan pa lang gwapo na. pano pa ngayon? ay grabeh! haha

and our second baby's first picture...



notice anything? mana ba kay kuya sa pose? hehehe

medyo scary pa ang itsura ni baby since 8 weeks old pa lang siya dyan and super close up siya. and i can't wait for the next ultrasound. this time to see if our baby's a girl or boy. but i'm hoping for a girl. teehee!

everybody's into it...

been bloghopping while waiting for aishi's text that he's going to pick me up and i've seen a lot of people into digiscrapping. looks like an interesting hobby to do using the computer and being online. and i have seen how creative people get using pictures of their loved ones or any special occasion in their lives.

oh how i env them. how i wish i was that hardworking. how i wish i could spare moments in my hectic mommy duty to do that. how i wish i had a faster computer at home. how i wish our internet connection's faster.

it's so amazing seeing their lay outs. imagine just using photoshop as your base program and you can come up with those amazing results? wow.

if i had the time and the money i would be into that as well. but then life has a different plan for me i guess. and really, i'm much better off, keeping my memories the way i want them to be. in my own little way..

sorry drama mode lang. hehe

stress according to calvin



and i couldn't agree more...

got bored with the black background of my blog so i decided to tweak it a bit. please, pardon the look for now since i'm in the process of figuring out how it should properly look like. if there's anyone out there willing to help me out with the layout and codes etc... i would gladly give you the source code and it's up to you to make it more presentable. sorry i can't pay you but for sure you will get due credit for making my blog look cool.

so, drop me a line, IM me, email, whatever. i just need your help. hehehe

thanks!!

tidbits and chunks

Start of the BER months na... less than a month to go and birthday ko na. and i'm going to be a quarter of a century old. shucks! of course, my age would stop there forever! bwahahaha!

i should definitely get my own flash drives so that i can do work at home, if i have the time...

kyle's growing up to be a really smart kid. although i'm still waiting for him to speak more words other than dada, dede, mama, pampa, didi, daddi, there, baba, babay... when can i hear those adult words? sorry was just being impatient.

happy to say that baby baby bear bear's doing good. not that prominent yet for people to realize i'm carrying a 4 month old baby in my belly. hihihi and thank god wala pang nasasayang na damit ko. although i wish i can shop at sm. their materinty clothes are so cute!! nasa uso and can be worn even after you give birth! mura pa!

i gained 3 pounds! yey!!

steve "croc hunter" is dead... read it here: CRIKEY! wawa naman siya noh? poor wife and kids...

lately kahit BER months na, bakit ang init pa rin?? not that preggy ako pero normal people around me are complaining also of the heat. mas matindi pa siya sa summer heat ha. ang hirap tuloy matulog sa gabi..

instead na food ang cravings ko, i'm more on craving books and other reading materials. nabuhay ang bookworm! yey!

i sure hope tuloy na tuloy na ang wedding namin next year. next on the agenda, visit the church we chose and prepare the reservations... then the guests, then the reception and food, then the gowns, then the cake/souvenir, then the invitations... and a whole lot of preparations hehe

so there's a few tidbits and chunks.. =)

bad vibes

ang sama lang ng loob ko ngayon. lahat naman tayo may mga bibig para masabi ang mga gusto natin pero may mga ibang tao talaga na sadyang ayaw gamitin ang silbi ng kanilang mga bibig. kahit ilang taon na ang pinagdaanan mo at halos alam na nila kung saan mahahanap ang mga nunal sa katawan mo, minsan, hindi mo pa rin sila kilala.

sila pa naman ang nagsabi na importante ang communication sa isang pagsasama. hindi lamang pag-aasawa ang pinaguusapan dito peor ang pagsasama ng lahat bilang kapamilya. pero bakit ganun, sadyang sila pa ang hindi gumagawa ng mga sinasabi nila. set by example ba.

tapos eto at may maririnig ka pa sa ibang tao. sa iyo lang ayaw magsabi, pero sa iba. dirediretso ang mga sumbat at reklamo. masakit lang sa loob kasi maririnig mo naman na madali naman silang kausap at kung may kailangan sila, hindi sila mahihiyang humingi ng tulong. pero hindi pala... lokohan lang pala. sa iba ko pa talaga malalaman... masakit...

sawa na ako umiyak. sawa na akong magmukmok na lang sa isang sulok. pero dahil sa mabait ako, papalampasin ko ang nangyaring to. pero pag naulit uli, hindi ko na alam kung ano ang pwede ko gawin. san pa ako kukuha ng lakas para kayanin to?

buhay nga naman...
