Jacobo will be one of the ring bearers for the wedding of hubby’s friend and so we have to find a tuxedo for him. I initially thought of just renting since he will just wear it once but good thing I found an online store
here where I can purchase affordable but high quality tuxedos for my little man. And since I am pregnant (and lazy to go out), I don’t even have to go out of our house to purchase it since they can deliver it to our house.
I am excited for Jacobo. I am sure he will be the cutest little ring bearer. I just hope that he will not be scared to march down the aisle by himself. LOL.

I am a member of one of the forum for married couples where we share anything about married life, parenting, and just about anything under the sun. Lately, I have been reading post about issues of infidelity that some even led to separation and divorce. Well I guess, if the couples relationship and strong from the very beginning, it will be difficult to be shaken by any kind of trials and test.
But it is just sad to think that things like this happen. There are a lot of temptations around and a lot of issues that couples can disagree with and the possibility of divorce and separation is really possible. Just take a look at Kim Kardashian who filed divorce after being married for just 72 days with his basketball player husband, Kris.
That is why I really look upon couples that last and were able to be with each other through thick and thin. Couples like them who reach even just
silver anniversary really deserve to celebrate and treat each other with gifts like this nice 25th anniversary gifts from Red Envelope:



For my marriage, I wish that we not only to last until our silver or golden anniversary but I hope that our love will last forever and I know that if we just put God at the center of our relationship, it is really possible.

This November, Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao will have a fight against a Mexican boxer named Margarito. I know that my hubby is excited about it for he is a big fan of pacman.
Evidences for it are his MP bag with Pacquiao's signature; which he uses with pride and some shirts.
He never misses to watch the match of Pacman, in fact he goes in the movie house or even subscribe for a paper view bars. He patiently downloads videos covering the fight of his idol.
Every time he had a chance, he makes sure that he will drop by at Pacquaio's Store and buy something or just have a word with the caretaker of the store; asking things about the future plans of Pacquiao and stuffs alike. He is now planning to buy a new shirt to wear when he watch the game this November and he’s starting to call some of his contacts to reserve a ticket for him.
So I guess by now, you’ll have an idea how an avid fan my hubby is.

Oh my gosh, I have been so very busy lately that I forgot that Father’s Day is close already and I need to shop for a gift for dear hubby. Though I have a few ideas already for our Father’s Day gift for hubby. Here is my list:
1. Some
big and tall clothing that he can wear for work
2. A massage. He has been very busy these past few weeks and he deserve some pampering. A home service massage will definitely be a good gift as it will really be a very relaxing treat for hubby.
3. An out of town trip. B has been requesting for a trip to the beach so we can book an overnight stay in one of the beach resorts. For sure I can easily make a reservation since it is not the peak season anymore.
4. We can stay for overnight at Sofitel. Hubby has long wanted to try out this hotel. They actually had a promo last Mother’s Day so hopefully they will have a promo again for Father’s Day.
How about you, what do you plan to give your dear husband for Father’s Day?

B has been sick since Tuesday so my husband and I are up almost the whole night since Tuesday monitoring her condition. Aside from that, we both have pending jobs that we need to finish, so in between taking care of B, we have to squeeze in our schedule the work that we have to finish.
So for this week, we have been only been sleeping for a maximum of 4 hours of sleep everyday and then we have to go to work the next day. This leaves us with eye bags and joint pains (can you recommend the best
joint pain relief to ease our pain?)
But at least now B is doing much better. Her fever is gone since this morning and hope that her condition will continue to get better. She is actually quite active already and is back to her usual self again – playful and active. (Thank goodness!)

I was once asked by a friend regarding family planning. She asked me how many kids do we want to have.
When I gave birth to my first born, she was born with a congenital heart disease. As a first time parent, it really broke my heart upon hearing the bad news from the doctor. I was in tears every night thinking about my daughter’s condition and if only I can do all that I can to protect her. Because of this, I told my husband that I would rather have just one child so we can take care of her and give her all our time and attention.
But God is really good because when our daughter turned two, we got a confirmation from her pediatric cardiologist that her congenital heart disease has now been cured. Her condition is a very common congenital heart disease for newborns where there is a hole in the infant’s heart. If the position of the hole is not dangerous, then there is no need for an operation and in time, it might heal and close on its own. And we are truly blessed because this is what happened with my daughter. We are really happy because now she can live and grow to be a normal child.
So this really changes our mind in our plans regarding the size of the family. Our daughter is the greatest gift that we have ever received. She is our source of joy, our inspiration. And that is why we decided to have more. LOL. (Thank goodness that we have arrived at this realization sooner, long before hubby would be needing levitra. LOL).
We know how expensive it is to raise a child. Of course we want to give them the best – best education, best of life. If only budget is not an issue then we would go for 5 kids. But life is difficult now so hubby and I decided to meet halfway and we are going for three kids. I am currently pregnant with our second kid now. But who knows, in the coming years maybe we will have a change of heart again and will opt to have more than three…
