I can’t wait for that day when I have to enroll my kids, buy them supplies and bags for school, bring them to school and teach them. Finally, it’s here. Indeed, time flies really fast when you have a child! Choosing a school was not an easy task for me. We have to hop from […]
If there is something I can eat everyday, it’s Spanish food. Growing up with my lola around, I got used to the smell of Paella, arroz ala cubana, croquettes and salpicao in our home. Since then, Spanish food always made me feel like home and reminds me of my lola’s cooking. Sometime last week, I […]
I love pancakes. Even my kids have soft spot when it comes to pancakes. When I was younger, I could still remember my mom making pancakes for us every weekend, or at least once a month. Now that I’m a mom, I try my best to continue that tradition with my kids. Maya (yes, the […]
The first time I applied for my passport, it was my mom who did everything. From filling up application forms to scheduling appointments, she was on top of it. I even remembered going to DFA in Pasay for our appearance. That was more than five years ago, I think. When my husband needed to renew his […]
I never really understood the importance of breastfeeding until I became a mom. My mother did not breastfeed me and, modesty aside, I think I turned out well. But when it’s now my time to be a mother, I realize… Continue reading → 20 years ago, breastfeeding is not mandatory in hospitals. Fast forward today, […]
I have always been a fan of headbands. For me, it is a perfect accessory to add life to a boring or bad hair day. When I had my first child, I always made sure to buy tons of clips… Continue reading → I don’t normally join contests / raffles since I don’t think I […]
Don’t you just love technology, especially when you don’t have to line up for hours just to get a single documents they can print in seconds? I never tried lining up in NSO just to get my birth certificate. I just order my birth certificate through the NSO Hotline and pay for the corresponding fees. […]
I don’t like wasting and throwing food. I would rather have it inside my tummy than see it in trash, if that even makes sense. Every time I buy fruits and wasn’t able to eat it right on time, I just bake something out of it, which is what I did with my overripe bananas […]
I have a confession to make: I got pregnant before I was married to my then boyfriend, now husband. It was summer of 2011 and first year in law school just ended when I found out I had a bun in the oven. Obviously, my parents weren’t very happy about it. My (sort of) conservative […]
I’ve always been a dress-kind-of-girl. It makes me feel more feminine, plus I feel prettier when wearing one. Lol! Since I became a momma, shopping at Forever 21 was taken off my list. The designs are something I no longer appreciate, plus the styles and cuts don’t suit me. Most of the dresses I find […]

I rarely travel with yayas. Although they make my life easier in taking care of the kids, I prefer to leave them behind especially when we’re going on a vacation. For me, I prefer that we spend some alone time with the kids once in a while. Still, I’m willing to make an exception if […]
