With AJ going to school right now, I only have 2 kids here at home and it's definitely quiet too. I know it's not gonna last that long as they're growing up but I definitely want a job as soon as Aerell starts school. I like the fact that you can always do a job search whenever you're ready for it. Right now, when people see me with 3 kids, they tell me I don't need another job other than being a mom and I think I agree with them. I love the fact that I can enjoy them while they're still young.

is potty-trained now!  I am so happy about this.  In the beginning, we really struggled because he was not willing to participate at all.  It was a hard time for me and him.  I tried giving him treats each time he goes to potty but that didn't really work for a long time.  I got to the point where I don't ask him anymore because I am tired of the fussing.  I guess you could say I almost gave up on it.  I thought maybe he really wasn't ready yet but just when I started to quit giving him pressure about going to the potty, that's when he started going.  To this day, he complains about wearing dieapers/pull-ups.  I let him wear those when we go out 'coz I don't want any accidents.  I am really proud of him!  He tells us whenever he needs to go to the bathroom while we're going out somewhere.  He doesn't wet his pull-ups at night for weeks already.  He gets so excited wearing big boy underwears, lol! 

Lately, Aiden has also been very polite.  Yes, we teach our kids to be polite but man he is over polite, lol!  He would say thank you, no - thank you, please (in a very sweet voice), excuse me (every time he burps or make an utot, lol) and I'm sorry especially when he knows he's in trouble, lol!  I am so pleased of how he's growing up.  He is a little naughty but given that he's a boy, I think that's normal, lol!  He is getting better with the way he treats his baby brother.  He keeps saying that Aerell is so cute, haha!  The other day, I asked him if he was cute too and he said no.  I asked him why and he said because he's pretty, lol!  Conceited, eh?  He is such a joy.  All my boys are and I love being their mom.

With the high prices of gasoline nowadays, a lot of people have been driving motorcycles to and from work. As a matter of fact, my brother-in-law is one of them. I have this friend who asked her husband to buy her a Harley once she got here. She prefer motorcycles over cars, haha! Good for her 'coz it's really easy to look for Harley parts these days in case she'll need one. For those who have Harleys out there, check out the site!

A week ago, we just had our bathroom cabinets redone, thanks to our sweet little Aiden! Well, months ago, he was playing in the bathroom sink and flooded our bathroom, which destroyed the cabinets from all that water dripping. Ah, the inquisitive mind of a 2-year old; gotta love it! Anyway, my bathroom is looking better now. I just wish we'd change the faucet too and get a Moen. I always love their styles. I think I'll write that down as our next project. We have one in the kitchen and I love everything about it.

is already a little over 7 months old now.  He's got 4 teeth on the top and 2 on the bottom.  It was so funny because he had 4 teeth coming out all together.  Poor thing got a little fever from that but he's all well now.  He's still not talking but he can walk while holding on the sofa, hehe!  Man, I can just imagine how it's gonna be when he can walk by himself.  I'm sure there's gonna be a lot of chasing around here.  He loves to eat the "real" food.  I'm thinking of not buying any more baby foods next grocery-shopping time because he's not into them anymore, haha!  Matter of fact, he's munching on Aiden's bacon right now, haha!  He loves scrambled eggs and ice cream.  I'm not sure if he can smell it or he just really knows how the ice cream looks, lol!  Hubby always put his ice cream in a bowl and for some reason, Aerell just comes to him and opens his mouth each time.  It must be so good to feel that cold ice cream on his swollen gums.  

I sure thought I could get away with it this time. Every time I quit breastfeeding or just right after having a baby, I get breakouts. I even joked before that the greatest cure for acne is getting pregnant, lol! It's because that's the only time I get acne-free. I think my breakouts have something to do with my changing hormones though so whatever acne treatment I try to use, it doesn't really work well. However, if any of you out there reading this are having breakouts that is not caused by hormones, try checking out the link above. It might just be what you're looking for!

Every time I go to the Filipino store here in our area, I always have to use cash because they don't want you to pay credit cards for purchases that are less than $20. Anyway, I was just browsing some sites a while ago and saw this authorize.net, which is provided by Merchant Focus. I think if I have my own little business, I would apply. If you're interested, please check out the site for more details. They actually have a free set up going on right now. Hurry because offer ends at the end of this month!

Man, it's been a while again.  I'm not so motivated in blogging these days.  Add to that the added responsibilities that comes with a kindergarten, lol!  It's like I'm going back to school too.  I can't believe how much school has changed.  When I was in kindergarten, it seemed like we were just playing and singing a lot.  A little writing and coloring and counting from 1-20 and that's it but now they got kindergarten kids cutting living and non-living things from magazines for a science project!  WOW!  I think my greatest struggle for now is learning Spanish.  I don't speak the language and neither does my husband.  It's hard to teach a child something that you don't know much about.  I am learning it together with my child though and I think in the long run, I'd be able to speak Spanish too, hehe!  More later! 

I have been looking at strollers lately because I think I should get a new one. Aiden broke a little part on the front of our double stroller and I am scared that one day, he's just going to fall off because it wouldn't hold him anymore. So, I checked out babyearth.com and their choices are amazing. Check out the latest designs that suit your kids perfectly. You can choose from the different brands they have and take note, they offer free shipping for orders $99 and above. So far, I am really happy with what they offer. Interested? Check out the site!
