Safety Riding

Since the accident we met a couple of months ago, we always made sure to ride safely. Aside from driving not too fast now, we always wear our helmets. But due to low budget, we initially got those cheap helmets from Port Area, which are not actually that safe (just to keep ourselves away from the MMDA and traffic enforcers).

Not until last week that we have decided (and had the budget) to buy new helmets... the safer ones. :) We travelled down South to Festival Mall, Alabang just to get our new safety gears. We got them from RideGear, since they sell them at cheaper prices against other stores in Manila.

I actually didn't have the plan yet to buy my own helmet. But since it was a long travel and it's already dark (at 9 in the evening), I decided to buy one for myself too.

Why in different angles, you ask? Well, it's because I'm flaunting the stickers we had made just to personalize our helmets (hubby's has his name on the other side of the helmet and mine's so kikay). Hehehe...

Too Fast

She's growing up too fast. {sigh} I'm already missing her baby wails when she wants to be carried, fed, or when she needs a diaper change. Hehehe... But I'm happy she's growing up the way we have always wanted her to be.

Keep it up, girl! You'll always be our baby. :)

My First Coach

Yup, you read it right. I'll be having my first Coach bag in ~34hours. Yay!!!

My MIL's coming home tomorrow night from Tokyo. And since my SIL loves me so much (naks!), she's sending a Coach bag for me. She bought me a Signature Stripe Tote as her advance birthday gift. And the moment she told me that, I got sooooooo excited and happy! :)

Thanks so much Ate Beth for this wonderful gift. I soooo appreciate it and I looooove it! :)

And with it being my FIRST Coach bag, here's a sneak of what I'm having, except that mine isn't zip top:

Almost A Month

Wow... it's been almost a month since my last post. In my previous post, I was counting the days before my DD's second birthday. Now, I'll be counting the days before Christmas! :)

But before Christmas strikes this blog, I'll show you some pics from my baby's 2nd birthday.

The Star City plan did not push through. But we'll do it some other day... soon. :)

Only 9 Days To Go...

...and she'll be TWO! :)

I just hope she enjoys her 2nd birthday even without the party. :) One of hubby's uncle arrived from the US and an aunt will be arriving from Japan on the 20th, so we hope the lil girl will have bulging pockets on her birthday. :)

Anyway, even if there's none, I'm sure to make her very happy on her special day.

No Tricks, All Treats

As I mentioned in my previous post, DD had her first trick or treat at Fun Ranch last Saturday. Although it was sooooo HOT, she had fun fun fun!

Good thing she did not get sick after the event. She was wearing a furry costume yet the area was soooo hot, with no ventilation at all. It rained a few minutes before 2pm, so the program started 1 hour late. And since the area was not covered, everyone had to stay on both sides of the stage. It was actually a riot! Hahaha!

They also had games, but since my lil girl is too young for those, we stayed at Q Power Station at the 2nd floor. We played a few games until it was time for the distribution of loot bags. They started calling kids in ascending order from number 1, and since we're number 176, we still had enough time for the carousel ride. She was pointing at the carousel calling the horses. Hahaha!

To sum it all up, I think the best part for my lil girl was the loot bag filled with candies. She enjoyed running around Fun Ranch, looking for the next shop to visit, and fill her bag with candies! Hahaha! She's a certified sweet tooth, you know. :) Too bad, I was not able to take a shot of her loot bag, she didn't want to let go of it. Hahaha!

4 More Days To Go

before DD's first trick or treat. :) We registered for Fun Ranch's No Trick All Treats which will be held on Saturday, October 25. Since this will be her first time, I am very excited for her. She'll be wearing a costume! Hahaha!!!

My bro's girlfriend offered her niece's pink leopard costume which was used last year. And here's how she would look like:

DD wore it once and she looked soooo cute in it! Can't wait for the actual event! Hehehe!

However, I'm still thinking of getting her a hula (Hawaiian) costume - bikini top and grass skirt - since I know she'll melt while roaming around Tiendesitas. The place is soooo hot! Anyway, with the very limited time I have - leaving the house for work at 6:30AM and arriving home at 8:00PM - I wonder how I can drop by Divi to get a cheap costume. Hehehe :)
