I'm Back!!!!

finally got the energies to go back blogging again... this is the most i could muster for now... i feel nauseated....

anyway... just some updates for you here... royal wedding's done at last... and the weekend before that, which happened to be easter... marky's baptism! really, a whole lot of thanks for those who attended, sans the very far venue... we really appreciated it. =) pity i can't download photos here for some reason, but you may find them at my and my husband's Facebook. =)

hmmm... about the holy week... i really did nothing but sleep and lie down... i felt so lazy and dizzy all the time, it was frustrating 'cause i had wanted to tidy around the house and refresh myself during vacation... but there i was, doing nothing and being useless! but at least, i was able to catch up on some of the lost sleep... and i was able to take on the prescribed bed rest....

btw, dunno if i told you guys about this already, but i'm now about 2 and a half months pregnant with our second baby. 0_o had a preg test again this morning... this time, it yielded a positive almost as immediately as the flick of a finger... which explains why i have these dizzy spells and morning sickness... had about a couple or so absences already... sighs....

anyway, still thankful God has blessed me with a job that gives me double than my asking price... really anxiously and excitedly waiting for the first trimester to be over... i mean, the phase of lazy, dizzy, and vomiting... and hoping that, when that phase ends, i'll regain my energy and love for work....

also really very grateful to God for a husband who knows how to invest, and who takes care of all our home needs for me. i know, that's supposed to be my job, but he understands very well that i need somebody else to do it for me right now. hoping that he gets a better job, the job of his dreams, soon.

and yes, i'll be eternally full of thanks to God for my little boy, who's now growing so fast, so aggressive, and so full of life, at 9 1/2 months! =) i'm teaching him how to listen and heed to "no," and "come here," and "get that." the reason? i happened to know some babies who don't. 0_o thankfully, my son listens, and he obeys. so, as a reward, i let him explore as much as he wants, unless of course, if there's potential for danger.

Lord, bless our new baby. =) hoping for a little girl so that we'll have a boy and a girl. =) hubby and i are planning to name her kriziane kate, from both our names and because her conception coincides with all the fuss about the royal wedding. =) what d'you think?

Marky's Christening!

Updates! Updates!

Finally! Got on my blog once more... it's a Saturday evening and I'm still at work... but there's really nothing more to do save for waiting for our show to air, so all that's left for me to do for now is to entertain myself....

First off... the family reunion! I got reunited once more with my biological family (as in Mom, Dad and my brothers) last weekend, with Daddy and of course, Baby Marky. We first met at church... then, we went to our old home where we had one of my fave dishes - Mom's egg burger and chicken neck with liver adobo! =) Yum! Pity we didn't have Mom's carbonara... but it was all right....

Preparations now in full swing for Marky's christening. It'll be on the 25th of April, a Sunday, at the Sto. NiƱo Parish. Reception will follow at Chow King in Almar. Why Chow King? Well... it's basically because we canvassed and we found out it's more affordable there, and we can even have the room free for ourselves for the first two hours and rent the videoke! We shopped around first... should we have Jollibee, Chow King, some other resto, or just our home and have the food catered by our own fellas? We first tried Jollibee, but we decided this won't work... all the party packages are for kids, and all our attendees are adults. So we just decided that would work instead for his first birthday. Catering's good, but the viand and rice will come from Daddy's side and the spaghetti, carbonara and chicken will be coming from my mom's... transporting will be a major hassle. Plus, we're not sure about the security of our guests here. Other restos - nah. There's not much choice. The next better restos from here are kilometers away. So we opted instead for Chow King. The venue's accessible from the church, the meals are adult-friendly, we could have as many add-ons as we want, and as I've said, we can have the videoke, as well as the room for free for the first 2 hours!

And last but not the least... by the way... I'm pregnant once more! 0_o I'm not kidding! Indeed, it's baby number two, coming up... almost two months now. =)

More for next week! Stay tuned.

God speed....
