I got a very nice dress from the store of Baby Fashionista in Eastwood Mall. The size 4 fits perfectly for Bianca!
I love the mix colors of the fabrics and so as the plum colored ribbon attached to it.
She’s our doll in the house! She wore this during her birthday party in school.

Went to the mall yesterday to buy last minute stuff to bring for our trip. The husband didn’t buy the idea of buying luggages for the kids. Instead, he allowed me to buy the Avent Tempo Disposable System. Yes, Bianca in particular still drinks milk from the bottle. Still not fully weaned. And Margaux in some occasions like when sleeping do ask for milk as well from the bottle. I guess the disposable system is a good deal since we would still be using it in other future trips.
Atleast, I just need to bring these and few nipps instead of lots of individual bottles. So I have more room for things I would shop!

Sinc we have moved to the new house, we are trying other malls closer to our location. SM North Edsa and Trinoma has been those malls actually. Now that Active Fun is already open in SM Annex North Edsa, we have reasons to go around that mall while we dropped the kids for some play. I’m pretty sure more kids would love playing and staying here because of this giant slide…

Gone are the days that my kids just want to stay in a play area where there were only a small space and little tikes stuff, instead they prefer more physical play and Active Fun is a good place for them to hang-out.


The rates are just right with a lot of things the kids can play.

They also offer party packages. We particularly saw their set-up when we were there. I’m sure the kids guests would have a blast partying here.

For inquiries on holding a party, you may call them at 332-3929 and 215-9891. Here are their party packages…

Will definitely go back to the place!

I must admit…I am so tempted to get the kids their luggages. Since we have some upcoming international trips, I wonder if its worth it to get them their own.
I got interested with these when I saw from Mrs T’s blog. (picture snagged from her). I’m just a little worried that it may not pass the test of being thrown in the plane. But Mrs. T said it her Kamiseta Luggage passed in flying colors.

Or should I just get the Trunki which would double as their ride-on suitcase.

Although I feel like its too small for their stuff. But anyway, I would just rather put their other stuff in our big luggages. I just find it cute that both of them would also have their own wheeled-thing when we travel. Don’t you think so? or would this just be an added stuff for us to think about? But since we are travelling to US as well, I would like to think that it could help if we would be moving from one state to another. Ok, now I was given go signal by the husband to go purchase but I can’t decide. Could you help me pick which one?

The kids have a growing number of books right now so I am thinking to get the above book storage from eRoomService. They have fine collections of modern furniture from living room, dining room, bedroom, even office and kids room. Mostly, they carry Italian designers in modern styles. I just prefer the book shelf to be in color pink though. Apparently, when I checked online, orange is the only available color. I asked the customer service and they replied that I might have to wait for another 2 weeks if the pink will arrive from their deliveries. I would probably wait for that.

So this is where I stuck the kids whenever I need to work!



Yeah, it’s definitely the girls’ room! But we should still get them nice Kids furniture which I have been drooling over spacify.com. Eventually we need to get them beautiful kids beds and even kids’ study tables. I have been a regular visitor of the site because I find their pieces so modern which would be ideal for the theme of the house. And oh, check out their beddings for kids. You would regret if you won’t get something like what they offer online! And oh, they even offer free shipping to most of their items!

I was so happy with these good buys I had last week in SM. The girls wore it during Holy Thursday, very comfortable while we did our bisita iglesia.
Super good buy since a pair was just less than Php500. It was heaven finding cute and nice pieces like these. I sometimes realize it is too overly expensive to get from Gingersnaps with shorts at Php800/piece! (mas mahal pa sa mga shorts ko!)
Cute Sleeveless tops and matching checkered shorts…

and since the little girl has finished her first step level and now on summer break, I am shopping around for the best summer activity for her and also for Bianca. I have been thinking to enroll her back for swimming class so she could take the next level after she took Bert Lozada My Baby and Me class last summer. But I also want her to be in Hiphop dancing in Miriam CSC which would start on May. The husband prefers this rather than the ballet class. There are still a number of activities I would like them to try but let’s see as to where I would end up enrolling them.

I just came from the Richwell Sale. I so love all stuff I bought. There were a lot of people so expect to line-up for 3 hours just to pay. Better bring a companion to help you in lining up while you shop around and a driver to just drop you off because parking spaces inside the warehouse are very limited. You would have to risk not to be towed when you parked along the road outside the gate.
Good thing there was Apple who was there early as well. Thanks for lining up girl! She already started lining up at 2pm and I was still able to move around while we put all our finds in one corner. She was quick in buying her toys. Apparently, I noticed a lot of barbie items which I went ga-ga over! The sales assistants are saying they are bringing out more items in the succeeding days. Gee, I want to go back tomorrow!!!
I almost bought all barbie dollhouse I could see, (hehehe). And you literally have to get the first find and then don’t let it slip your hand anymore. Otherwise, you can’t find it again. Apple and Toni helped me decide which among the dollhouses and other accessories should I get. I would have bought both if I didn’t see the barbie vanity table and chair. I was so happy when I learned that it was priced 50% off. Then I saw the chicco vanity table and chair also. I asked for the price, it was just Php300 more expensive that the barbie set. I can’t decide. I want the chicco cause I know its durability but I want the barbie because of its color pink! Ok, no more thinking, I got both so my two girls would have their own each. (ang gastos ng anak na babae, grabe!)
I still want to get the step 2 slide which was Php2,800 only. The pony carousel which was at Php2,400 and the dora bike which was at Php1,200 only. But I decided to get the barbie dollhouse and accessories first. I plan to go back again to the warehouse and convince the husband to buy the outdoor play activities so we can have something to put for the garden at the back of the dreamhouse. I was looking for a big playhouse but they don’t have it yet as the sales girl said. There would be more “boys” items by tomorrow according to her.
For the meantime, these are all items I got:
Barbie Vanity Table Set – Php1500

Chicco Vanity Table Set – Php 1800

Barbie Playhouse (new-20% off) – Php 2000

Barbie Laptop – Php 1000

Barbie Living Room Set – Php 500

Barbie Pool Set – Php 300

Now, Santa Claus is ready for christmas gift-giving! lol!

I missed the Toy Kingdom Sale. Gosh, I’m a bummer. I even posted it here. Too bad wasn’t able to make it since I had a wedding last Friday and two parties to attend to last weekend. I heard there were lots of nice toys at great prices but I also heard a number of people who just went home empty handed because of the tremendous cashier line-up. Anyway, I’d rather prepare myself instead for this friday. Note: I have blocked off my whole afternoon so I can go there early. We are just 5 minutes away from this warehouse and I’ll truly be a big bummer if I don’t get there first and be among the first to see the great selections. I hope it would be as good as 2years ago. Last year was ok, but 2006 was better.
I bet I’ll see some of you there! (wink, wink)

She is now 2 years old exactly today. (reason why i posted her pics all across my blogs!) How time flies so fast! She’s an adorable toddler now.
Later, we will have a simple celebration at CRIBS Foundation to make her 2nd birthday meaningful. And on Sunday, will be the party with family and friends.
We love you Bianca! Happy 2nd Birthday to you!

Gee, I got a letter from Margaux’s teacher re their United Nations Activity 2 weeks from now. It would be on October 24, Friday. There’s was no specific country requested for Margaux. It is all up to the parents on what to ask their kids to wear. Ok, so I’m now searching for a nice and cute united nations costume. Of course, the dotting mother in me wants it to be unique, because they will parade in the whole grounds of Miriam College!!!!
Any suggestions and any leads where to get one? I have been “googling” national costumes of different countries now. I think I need to pull hair of some people (read: designers/dressmakers) for this in order to have one if I can’t find something readily available.
This is pressure!
