birthday souvenir rocks

I have less than a week to complete my boy's 3rd birthday giveaways. So far, so good. I have completed most of the goodies: tiny toy cars, glow-in-the dark numbers and letters, and the doodled souvenir rocks. Thanks to the super ninang Tingbats and her daughter, who joyfully picked up the rocks for us from their Owa's garden. You guys rock! (haha.)

The sticker didn't come out well so I had to redo the design. Here's the final one. I took out Zaiid's photo because he looked too pale and you can't really read the words. See old design here. 

I am now down to a smaller checklist. I need to order the cake within this week. I found a nice little cake shop in Parkmall that sells small cakes at 100 each with an edible letter planted as a topping. I plan to order Z-A-I-I-D and another extra for the number 3 with 3candle sticks beside it. I think he will love it.

i love the way we are.

Nothing huge has changed. Really. We still laugh at our own jokes, get annoyed by our old habits, make faces, get messy, talk about our big dreams, make eachother cry sometimes. 

The biggest change I could think of is him being the father of my sweet boys. He has transformed into a real grownup, responsible, and a very playful father that he is. With that, I realize that I am more than blessed to have known him in college, played in a band with him, loved and married him.

 

I love you hon. Happy Father's Day :)

ah. the satisfaction.

I almost forgot how it felt like to finally make a little javascript work in your own sweat. After a lot of research and google-ing and experimenting and tweaking - it is now working according to my direction. And I am so so satisfied I had to tell you - that is without telling you what project I am actually working on.

I'm not a genius at coding or decoding scripts, but I try to get all the help I can get online. There are answers out there that can help you or give you examples, all you have to do is make a one sample from scratch and then experiment it according to what you want.

Am I boring you or making you want to make a website? I am just too happy to tell you that the satisfaction of a working mother has come again. Aaah. Like tiny happy fireflies going on in your brain... now I can peacefully snuggle to my snoring babylove to bed.

(Actually, it was just a simple dropdown menu *blush.)

little grown up

little grownup by govinda on Polyvore.com

Thundering with coolness. I can imagine my almost-3-years-old boy putting on in this outfit - crayon swirling, holding a teddy and an iPod. Last sunday, I head out to shop for a beanie for my two boys but couldn't really find one. Some are too big or I didn't like the print. But this Gap beanie is what I'm looking for. Love it!

sea of shoes

I found Jane Aldrige's blog through my good friend/wind faerie, bevlee, who happens to be a hyper chatterbox. (That is a good thing.) We were chatting on how I am becoming really addicted to Polyvore and so she gives me the sea of shoes and thought on how cool this 17yo shoe lover is, how I think she had to be an old soul, a very fine vintage baby - and I'm definitely loving her fashion sense. 

I'm not a shoe person really. Just your average flip flop kind of girl. The reasons, for one - I can't get my shoe size *too small and two - I don't know how to walk on high heels.  

It's amazing how creative you become when you've found your true passion. And I think it works overtime and with ease when you know what you want, and how you want to share it to the world.

happy little 9months old

Today our Akii turned 9months old. But it's a sad thing when he got his fever from me. I'm not feeling well since yesterday and now, my little baby's got it. I'm sorry babylove. You will be fine soon, I promise.

newest trick: wants to be out of his walker and wants a help on his own real walks.
