Proof…

Proof that our eldest got her wish last weekend…

The dad and the little girl was so busy inspecting that digital piano in store.  We finally agreed to get one for her because of her good grades from the 1st quartet term.  She was very happy and ecstatic of course.  I’m sure she will put into good use this piano as she really loves to play.  She’s been practicing the musical pieces she learned from the past 6 sessions she had.  We didn’t buy though the most expensive one since we just want a portable digital piano.  Besides, we do not have a space if we will get the real one.  She personally chose this one actually.

So now I am sure she’s even more willing to go to her piano class every saturday.  I can’t wait to hear and watch her for her recital on summer!

Back to school…

Before I even buy my cutting tools for our kitchen, i need to prepare for all items needed by my girls for the start of the school! Tomorrow is back to school’s first day. I am one excited mommy especially that Margaux is already an upcoming grade 1. I now have an official grade schooler. On the other hand, excited also for Bianca’s nursery class. But I am also anxious of all items that I need to prepare like sticker labels, bag tags, supplies, etc. There are just so many things to think about. I hope to finish all my errands today.

Securing the future…

The husband and I have been in a lot of talks lately regarding investments and insurance benefits. We would like to as much as possible secure already the future of the kids and our retirement plan. I have been talking to two agents already since last week about availing another mutual fund and increasing our insurance policies with an inclusion already of a social security disability benefit. It is something significant to both of us and we would like to finalize it really soon.

Her Birthday Gift…

Our birthday gift for Margaux is a new bike.  She has been wanting to get a bigger once since she can already bike without the 2-wheel support at the back.  Her old one is also too small for her already. Now, she and her dad can bike together in the morning.  It could be a good way for the husband to exercise as well. We are even thinking to get those hitch bike racks so that they can even bring their bicycle whenever we would go for a quick out-of-town trip.

Summer Hats

Before I even begin the lcd tv reviews that my husband is asking me to do since we are getting a new once for the guest room, I wanted to share the cute summer hats I got in time for my daughter’s birthday party in school. These were super cheap from Divisoria Mall but a super hit to the kids. A very appropriate nice detail to the mad hatter’s tea party of Margaux.

Kids’ Christmas Gifts…

The kids didn’t get new textbooks from us. Instead, the husband got them a garden playset.

They love it. They enjoy playing with it every afternoon. But good thing some gave them other toys too and some even includes books. Their play room needs a lot of cleaning as well.  There are just so many toys which have piled up around it.  I need some time to sort it out even their clothes.

My list is not yet done…

I am still not done with my christmas shopping. I think I need to allot few more days to actually finish everything. I am loosing some ideas on what to give to teenage nephews. Any suggestions? I saw some nice jackets from Jimmy Jazz. I wonder if my nephews would actually like those coogi clothing but they are just so cute. In fact, they offer great discounts and even guarantees that items would be shipped before christmas. I particularly love their men’s outwears. Saw something that my husband would even like.

New Craze…

We went to the home depot yesterday to check out some easy-install racks for the kids’ room. We were also looking for stair rods as my mom wants to replace the one in their house. But we weren’t lucky to find what we were looking for so the kids asked us to bring them instead to a kid’s store nearby. The eldest didn’t want to leave the store without bringing home this.

This is their latest craze after seeing one in TV. Glad she also got something bigger like this for her twitter kids exchange gift.

My friday is blocked…

(that is tomorrow) because of this…

I would be there from opening hour. It’s my 2nd DK’s birthday tomorrow too so that’s where I would also get her birthday present. Would be getting gifts for the exchange gifts we have on Sunday and of course, I’m ready with my list for Christmas. I hope they have nice stuff and that they have really slashed off in prices.
