Goodbye Diaper!!

That's Joaqui's line yesterday afternoon. I noticed lately, I'm having a hard time putting on his diaper. Imagine a 7 mos preggy mom , battling with a kicking toddler in bed for diaper, LOL.

Tuesday afternoon, here's how it went..

Mommy : Let's go down. I need to change your diaper. It's full and heavy. ( i was touching it so he will know the feeling)

Joaqui : NO! Don't like!" ( he continued to play)

Mommy: Ahhhh.. common! Lets go down now!

Joaqui : Dont like diaper mommy. (with his paawa face)

So.. I get the picture now. Bakit ba ako mapilit? Eh ayaw nga nya..


Mommy: How about brief?

Joaqui : Dont like brief. Shorts only.

Mommy : Okay. Shorts. No more diapers for Joaqui??

Joaqui : Yes. Goodbye Diaper.

Mommy : Tell mommy if wee wee , okay? We will go to the.... ( I pause for a while, I typed something at the laptop)

Joaqui : Ahhhhhhh.. CR ???

Mommy : Yes CR.

I laughed really hard. Maybe he was waiting for me to say CR already, I got focused with what im typing , Ialmost forgot to say CR ... He said it to me in a really funny way.. like an adult asking :)

So yesterday was Day 1. He was diaper free from 5pm until 830pm. Though he still doesn't wanna sit on his potty (he prefers to stand, as taught by the dad again) , he tells me "wee wee mommy.. or mommy wet" already. But blame the slow preggy mom, di kami umaabot sa CR hahaha.

Today, Wednesday , our Day 2. No diaper in the morning til his bath time at 1pm. I ask him from time to time if he likes to go to the CR or he wants to pee, but he will say NO. I noticed he feels uneasy when he's about to pee. He walks fast.. a fast robot :) Im taking it as a signal. After bath, I placed a diaper again for naptime. I had it removed when he woke up. We were at the playroom when I saw the fast robot signal , so I told him, lets go to the CR. Waahh! we were so close to the potty trainer.. sayang! Di umabot. So imagine, ang linya ng wee wee sa floor, bwahahaa! I will try my best to move a little faster tomorrow!

But still, I always give him a high five kahit ma wee wee pa sya sa floor. I appreciate him not wanting to have diapers anymore, and telling me if he's about to pee. One step at a time. We are getting there.

To all the mommies who gave me inputs on this ( you know who you are) .. thanks a lot!! It is so true, everything will be easier once your kid is ready.. and readiness can only come from them :)

We were still at Dampa last Sunday when I asked Gelo if we can do a little shopping at BelAir Makati. I am dying to visit Hello Baby inside Belair for weeks now. He said NO at first, but when we were at the World Trade Center already, I begged him to turn right since that's Buendia already.. pathetic me! LOL!

In no time, we were parked in front of #48 Zodiac St . Joaqui was asleep so he stayed inside the car with our helper.

It was heaven for me! Im the only one shopping that time in the small room.. I grabbed and grabbed everything I can. Some items are placed on top of a cabinet so I asked Gelo to get it for me. ..Kuha mo ko nun.. yung pink! yung yellow din.. pati yung lilac !

here.. take a look at my grabs

I am still down with colds, and its getting terrible. I am just taking hot calamansi juice since last night for my clogged nose, Hahaha! Bad trip na kapitbahay kasi to. Burned tree branches and leaves , kaya ito allergic rhinitis na naman ako. Joaqui still has colds too, but manageable. Thank God , no wheezing or anything. Food and milk intake was not affected too.

Its my check up on Saturday, I wonder how much I weigh now.. hmmm .. I was 116 lbs last month. Any guess?

OMG ! 7 months na ko !!! Ambilis!

~*~*

Im still BAD when it comes to shopping. Yeah, i earned a good amount last month, and since I cant find Hard to resist sale online , and my family bought a lot of stuff already , I have decided to withdraw my earnings with the help of Abie, Thanks Mare!

We ate a lot during the long weekend .. A LOT of junk i should say.. and that includes Ice cream and sweets!

I bought 2 books for Joaqui , and 2 leggings in red and pink for babydoll.. Its too small, i think she can wear it at 2 weeks hahaha! Crazy me! Bakit ko ba binili yun? Sabi nga ni Gelo, naloko na naman ako ng store. But to defend my purchase ( talagang may ganung factor pa) , i really want my lil girl to wear leggings , the younger she is , the better :) I love leggings too! I think that's my secret for looking slim ;)

Ricca, my youngest sister , is the princess of our family since 1982 :) Hahaha.. but now, with the coming of our babydoll in months, she's leaving her throne.. her days are already numbered. And what's the best way to do that? SHOP of course ! She bought these 2 weeks ago.. sana may kasunod pa to hahaha.

Told you, swerte ko talaga.. ang gagawin ko na lang iiri :)

A few of her grabs.. (pics courtesy of Ricca)

Hindi ba kayo nagtataka at wala akong shopping items lately na naka post dito???

Isa lang ibig sabihin nun , UBOS na ang pera ko! Bwahahaha! May hangganan pala ang lahat ng ito!

May hangganan ang pamimili ko for them , namili muna ko ng para sa sarili ko ! Ang hirap, wala na ko masuot eh:) I had some of my earnings wired to me , bumili ako ng Melissa at leggings sa Zara last Saturday.. i feel so happy, I dont have to ask Gelo for my shopping money this time. I stopped myself from buying at Zara kids. Utang na loob Peachy! Ibili mo muna ng cabinet ang babydoll mo.LOL!

I love the leggings, and I should have followed my MIL's suggestion then , dalawa na sana binili ko . Pero syempre, I wanna try first if it's comfy to wear. Now that I proved it, i wanna get one in different color. And the Melissa's ? Hay :) Heaven ako .. *wink wink*

Next week na ko buy ulit for the kids, wala pa masyado sale eh. And secret lang , napagalitan na ko ng daddy ko kasi kakabili :) Madami na daw clothes and shoes.. so ibahin ko naman style ko .. ito gusto ko bilin para wala sya masabi.. wala pa ko ganito..

Thanks kathy :)
