postheadericon Leg Hug


"Why you keep putting your legs all over my arm?" , a typical interrogation (question as commonly called) to my eight months (8 months+) infant every time she is having her formula. Oops, not only that time but most of the time when she is lying down like changing her in the changing table (or anywhere), playing on her feet, or just lying down. Really, sometimes I could feel the nuisance. Ha! But I find it cuteand sweet! It is just that her legs are heavy, you know I only have one arm to feed her pointing on her legs, so imagine one arm with two legs all over while carrying the bottle with formula. I am not complaining though. :-) One thing, did I tell you that it's not just on my arm but any part of my body which is near her legs? Ha! You bet!

My baby love, daughter Sam is so energetic and very alert at this age of her. Good thing she is not that type of baby who loves to be carried all-the-time. I am so proud and blessed to have this precious little lady of mine. :-) She is growing fast everyday and I cannot be happier of watching her growing every second each day. I love much my pretty cutie patotie. :-) Happy mommy me! :-)

postheadericon Finding a Suitable Stroller for Your Baby


Strollers come in different shapes and sizes and although choosing one can be time consuming and confusing at times, parents must really take the time to make sure that they have purchased the most suitable on for their baby or toddler. A stroller is very useful whenever you want to take your baby with you while having your journey like walking to the park or running some errands such as doing your weekly grocery shopping. Before going to the store to shop for a stroller or twin prams, you need to set your own budget so that you can narrow down your choices.

Look into strollers that are within the price range that you have set. Know which type of stroller you need, like whether you need a single stroller or twin prams for your twins. Strollers should have a canopy that can protect your child from the sun or the rain. Some of the latest models even have detachable canopies or hoods. The wheels should allow you to easily maneuver the stroller and should have a brake system to safely keep the stroller in place. Check the handle and the harness to ensure that you baby is secured and stays in place. Make sure that you inspect the stroller thoroughly so that you are assured that your baby only gets to use quality strollers.

postheadericon My Sam Visited My Dentist


Yes, this mommy of hers had her dental appointment last Friday and I was there keeping it. I had been called several times just to have an appointment and finally I said yes and that was it. The staffs in the front desk were dying to see my daughter, they even called my husband and asked about it. And they got what they requested. :-)

I am a proud mommy of my baby Sam. She is in-demand. Ha! As much as she is a precious one, she also is a very sweet little girl. They kept telling her how gorgeous she is, well, that's what babies are, don't you think so? Smile. :-)

And I had my dental work. Aside from cleaning, I got two composite teeth cavities so I had to let my dentist did it same day. You know, most of my teeth have fillings so to avoid more fillings, had to do such right away.  My daughter by the way stayed for a couple of minutes after she entertained the front desk staffs. :-) She had fun as had fun with her daddy as well at home waiting my call for picking me up. :-) Great day!
