How soon can you potty-train your child?

I'm not sure but this little guy knows how this thing works. This used to be Zaiid's but was never used as his potty chair because he would not fit in it. But look at the baby manghud - sitting like a pro and actually has been successful in pooping since.

The recycling of a kimono

Zaiid needs a painting apron for school but we left his apron in Cebu where I made a little burda design. So we recycled his little kimono (worn when he was still 5months old) and turn it into an apron. Great handwork by Auntie Nana, thank you!

big yellow bus

I am relieved to know that my boy is not going to get on an ordinary van by himself to school. Starting this school year, the government has implemented all private schools in the Middle East to obtain the yellow bus with a trained school bus driver holding the exclusive school bus driving license.

The Public Transport Agency at Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) completed a training course for 50 school bus drivers issuing them with exclusive school bus driving licenses, for the first time ever in the Middle East.

The ride to the big yellow bus starts on the 15th.

First day of School!

He was as excited as going to other places - only that it's got bonus points because he's loving his school uniform and new black shoes! But school bus isn't picking him up yet until the 15th so we had to get a carlift instead.

We picked him up at 12:45 - all smiles, holding his bottle of milk. He can't wait to go to school tomorrow morning again. "See you mowow!"

the hunt for the coolest black school shoes

We are in a mission to find Kuya Zaiid's cool black school shoes. What better way to start the adventure with a smooth riding taxi ride?

Mission completion! Presenting to you the coolest black school shoes!

stay.

She is my younger sister - better in taking care of the house, in cooking, in making things tidy. It's always easier with her around, I wish she wouldn't leave soon. The boys are already so inlove with her, especially the BabyManghud. It would break his heart to see her go.

I love her company, of course she's the only sister I ever had. Although we never had the chance to live together in one family, I always know that we were stronger as sisters. We know that we can always count on eachother no matter how hard times can go.

So I hope she'd stay longer. Because with her around, we're more than complete. We love you Auntie Nana!
