Recent buys

Went to the shops last weekend since we needed to buy some stuff for Nix' upcoming birthday. It will just be the three of us but still we want to make it special that's why were planning on giving her an extra special surprise on that day. Hopefully it all works out *wink*

Anyways, since its June already end of financial year sale is all over. So tempting! Here are the things we got:

All for the kitchen so medyo allowable ang gastos na ito:)

My favorite buy which I still have to use is the mini frying pan. Madali kasi hugasan when I just need to cook a little of something diba:)

This is our favorite movie for the moment and we've been watching it daily, sometimes even twice a day. I think its a great fun watch for kids and parents alike and I love the songs!

I like all the characters but Maximus and Pascal are especially more adorable for me, they are pretty smart creatures don't you agree?:) 

Pink toys

Our daughter's birthday is coming up soon and when I asked her what she wanted for her present she said she wanted a teddy bear, a pink one at that and in costume:) So I'm thinking we might bring her to Build-A-Bear Workshop at the mall so she could have fun choosing her present. 

However if sana I have the budget, I would like to get her this as well:

Mini sizzlin kitchen from elc.com.au

It's so cute and it makes sounds daw. Kaya lang mahal, $AUD 75 and its out of stock online so maybe I should just look for a more affordable yet as cute alternative. Weakness ko talaga ang toy kitchen stuff.

And here's another cute one also from ELC, Box of shoes :)

And aside from these, if I have the budget I will book us flights to Manila and throw her a Jollibee party. Oh she'd really enjoy that,I could just imagine:) I'd enjoy that too (haha) Maybe next year we could do that, God willing.

Winter

I think its officially the start of winter in our side of the world:) Thankfully though its been sunny since yesterday so none of the dark gloomy skies outside. I was even able to hang laundry outside yesterday so that was good. Nix has been sick the past few days and thank God that she is better now, still a bit picky about food but at least she's drinking milk and taking in a few spoonfuls of rice.

The months of April and May have been happily busy for our family. Our little abode here have been host to my parents, my tita, cousin and inaanak and only recently our friends who visited from Queensland. Now though they've all gone home so quiet na ulit kami dito. Look forward ko nalang next visit nila para di na ko ma-sad.

As my daughter would exclaim, "oh dea-h"

our little easter bunny

It is almost end of the month and I havent even blogged anything. My last entry was a month ago! Hmm, what is new? Well, my parents are here for a short vacation, yey! It means a little break from the cooking and doing the laundry, thanks to my mom (who's addicted to the washing machine hehe). It also means Nix is also super happy being able to play with lolo and lola. But though I try not to think about it, well we will be sad when they leave ...Pero that is still weeks away so happy thoughts lang muna.

Yesterday was Easter sunday so we went to church and then had yumcha at a nearby chinese resto. It was our second time there and I love the fact that even just a were seating down, the cart loaded with dimsum is already there and we could take our pick and dig in right away! I liked the seafood rolls and the chicken feet. My favorite though is their crispy chicken, love the way it is seasoned and I love the fact that Nix eats it with rice without any fuss, subo lang ng subo. Service was great as well, without asking, they refilled the teapot with hot jasmine tea na bagay na bagay since malamig ang panahon.

After lunch we went to nearby Sam's warehouse and that was where Nix got her bunny ears. She likes it so much, hanggang ngayon hop pa din ng hop. Sulit ang $2 ni lolo, hehe.

Hope you all had a good Easter weekend!
