My Daughter's First Kiss

Laugh. Don't be serious. Hahah. I have to keep calm, my daughter just got her first kiss! Oh my, hihih.
No worries though, that's YL! i am hoping they will be the best of friends in the future..
So these pictures of the two of them i shall keep as a remembrance. So when they're both older they would smile ^_^
We are not pairing them ok? It's just that, YL and Yena are like siblings, they should be. YL's mom, yena's MOmmy Umma is her godmother. In the philippines the two should be called 'magkinakapatid'.
I just wish that on the years to come, when they meet again they will not be cats and dogs anymore ^_^
This shall be my share on this friday's Mommy Moments with a Moving Up theme. Well, this shall be a big leap on my child's life.. now i know what to tell her when she asks me who her first kiss was ^_^ happy MM everyone!

Yena to Meet her 'other' Mommy Tom

From the first day i told Yena that her ninang Umma is coming she has been asking about her nightly. When she asks for juice, she will follow it up with; San na Mommy Umma? (Where's Mommy Umma?)Plus, she would recite over and over again: Mommy Umma, Yeung Lei or YL and Tita Kathy. I wonder if she got the excitement on my little stories that when the three arrived tomorrow we will go see all the fishes on a bigger aquarium, plus dolphins and tigers and snakes. And we will swim on a bigger swimming pool and the sea. She loves animals and she loves to swim - the little girl is so excited!

I wonder if she can recite all the things she has been telling about her other Mommy. When i ask her what will she tell her ninang she would say: Hi Mommy Umma! How are you?! Hi Lei (YL) Hi Tita Kathy.

Well i have to pack her things now. We shall be on BLOGGING LEAVE until next week. And we shall be back on saturday night.

From Japan with Love :)

Finally i met Clarissa of Kizuna last saturday. I was ecstatic to see her in person, she is what she is online - very warm and sweeet. Seems like we have known each other for so long and our kids get along so well!!And what else? She gave some presents from Japan for the nth time! Yena and I are so spoiled by this friend of mine.. And i owe her A LOT already..

Pretty Dress from Tita Kat

When kat, gave this dress to yena last saturday, all Yena had for a reply was a harsh AYAW instead of tenchu. Ayaw is yena's favorite word lately. Sadly. But when kat, went with ghie after a couple of minutes, we tried this dress on and Yena loves it that she even asked me for a little stroll out of the house.

So this sunday, this was Yena's getup.. The pretty dress from Tita Kat and that famed havaianas slippers from Tita Clang.. Thank you so much for the gifts two lovely people of the blogniverse! :)
This was her photo with her grandma 'mamato' before she had her tantrums.
We went to the mall with her cousins on the afternoon, and she had a blast with this lavender ride :)
A pose with the Christmas tree with her cousins and my sister whom she calls mama..
Posing right before shooting the balls.. We had fun at the mall playing at the arcades :)

How about you? How was your weekend?

Package from Japan!

Surprises, i love them! :) So last night when my mother told me i got a package, i almost breakdown (alright, that's exaggeration LOL) but my mind was thinking wild on where and who on earth would surprise me two months before my birthday! :)

So it came from JAPAN! From my very good friend Clarissa of Kizuna. I received her email this morning informing me of this surprise and if only i can transport right away to Japan to give her my hugs and kisses i would! She did great in surprising me by the way.. Thank you so much Clang!

Half undressed and very very excited, i opened the package and there's a loud shout of WOOOOOOOOW from my two audiences. My husband and my daughter Yena shouted in joyful glee upon seeing this... Pretty dress, cutey havaianas slippers, letters and pictures of Clang and her daughters Wakaba and Haruka and an envelope (what's inside it i am not allowed to disclose, love u clang!) She wore the pretty little dress and pose with her stuff toy Dora.. very very happy!

I kept on telling her if i can borrow her havaianas slippers to which she would quickly say AYAW..

My Girls Talk meme is getting a lot of support from girl bloggers, my $3 for Daniel Project has a lot of generous donors from all over the world PLUS this surprise gift from a very dear friend.. Oh my, I am really really blessed! Thank you Lord..
