Updates soon.

Sorry for the lack of real life updates. I am finishing my assignments, even before it hits the deadline. Babydoll's items are here, and that alone can keep me occupied the whole day. Not to mention , looking after the little boy of course. He is somehow busy today playing with his Hokey Pokey Elmo and loads of art materials, so I am taking advantage of that.

Our travel medical insurance is also due next month, and the husband asked me to confirm everything before I give birth.

I will be back with pictures of what's inside my box.

What her name means...

This is the one I got from Blogthings. I will have another post with a simpler meaning of her name.




What Her Name Means



You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row.

You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace.

People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality.



You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life.

You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you.

At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself.



You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated.

You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want.

You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!



You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing.

You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long.

You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.



You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.

You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.

You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.



People see you as a complete enigma, and only you truly understand who you are.

You spend most of your time introspecting and seeking truth.

You're a very interesting person... but not many people know you enough to realize it.



You are a very lucky person. Things just always seem to go your way.

And because you're so lucky, you don't really have a lot of worries. You just hope for the best in life.

You're sometimes a little guilty of being greedy. Spread your luck around a little to people who need it.



You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.

You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.

At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

It's here!!!

My first box that is. I was busy looking for a las vegas strip map when I heard someone at the gate. It was around lunchtime when the LBC staff delivered it. I gave him a tip and told him I shipped 2 more boxes that will arrive next month LOL!I never thought that me, my mom and my sister bought that much for the baby. I swear!! Hahaha. I can really give birth after the 2 parties that we have this weekend. I just looked at the clothes and I cant decide now what will she wear as her "going-home outfit" :) And i envy her shoes!!

The box also has a lot of Elmo toys for Joaqui, Dvd's, flash cards etc. The Elmo dancing Hokey-Pokey is nice too. He has a few clothes ( no more shoes as per my request) and washable art materials from Crayola. I have a lot of things to get him busy when we stay at the hospital.

Gelo's watch is there too ( the fruit of his online labor during my first trimester). And lets not forget my Bobbi Brown Blush with lots of freebies , and my silver gladiator that fits me so well. I will definitely be busy as a bee later tonight til tomorrow. I need to arrange our things.

The Nesting Stage

Been cleaning here and there for the past weeks, and I feel so happy that I was able to fix Joaqui's clothes in his new cabinet, and I was able to arrange his books at the shelf. His playroom is getting full since he has his drumset there and a basketball court. I wonder where will I place some toys of the little girl in the next few months. So I have decided to pack away his elephant tent since he doesn't play there that much. A few toys need to be kept too , to make way for new ones that will arrive in no time. We need to get some moving boxes again.

I haven't started arranging the stuff of babydoll since the box is yet to arrive this week. I only have a few clothes of her, neatly placed now in our bedroom. I bought some newborn diapers, toiletries and the likes. Its a good thing there's a department store near our house, so getting something is not that hard at all. I just can't wait for the box to arrive.
