Birthday Weekend

Friday na agad? Saan napunta ang linggo ko?

I have no idea how my week went.. I am really surprised it’s Friday already! Time flies really fast.. in a few more days, it will be March.. and school will be over.. and it will be summer!

And speaking of summer, we had an early summer last weekend 🙂 part of my birthday celebration. OK that reminds me how my week went.. rest the whole week! I was super tired that weekend.. imagine preparing for the party on Saturday (set up pool and cook food) and laundry on Sunday… Pagoda Coldwave lotion talaga ang peg ko that weekend. On Sunday afternoon, my whole body’s aching..specially my arms (ikaw ba naman maglaba ng 5 basket ng damit)..thank goodness for pain reliever!

One Alaxan FR + hot chocolate and I’m off to lalaland..

and because Alaxan FR contains pain relievers (Ibufropen and Paracetamol) trusted by doctors worldwide, I had a good night sleep and was not even bothered with my arms. The pain subsides just a few minutes after taking it. Based on Unilab website, this can be taken every 6 hours but from experience, I took another dose 10 hours after.. when I felt the pain in my arms again.

Aside from muscle pain, Alaxan FR can be also taken to relieve from rthritis, rheumatism, sprain, strain, bursitis (inflamation of the fluid-filled sac or bursa that lies between a tendon and skin), tendonitis, backache, stiffneck, tension headache, dysmenorrhea, toothache pain after tooth extraction and minor surgical operations, fever reduction.

Tama naman si Pacman: Aray mo, Galing Mo.. ang kaligayahan ng mga anak ko at ang labada ko ang galing ko hihihi

Yes, two inflatable pools.. and I have a manual pump.. this is where half of my muscle pain went hahaha

And why two pools you may ask? because the little girl is afraid to swim on the bigger one, so we bought a smaller from her.. but when her sanko and kuya Dylan (cousin) joined her on the smaller pool.. she fall on the water and went to me crying (more like wailing haha):

sabi mo hindi ako malulunod doon sa maliit na swimming pool? eh bakit nalunod pa din ako?? waaaaah

And this is what we had as my birthday lunch:

Boodle fight!

We bought the crabs at Farmer’s Cubao (3 pieces for 1200 PhP) as well as the shrimp (600 per kilo) and also the tilapia (buhay pa yan noong nabili ko). The sigarilyas came from my garden and the mangoes from the crate we bought last week.

Kumpleto ang bulilits for this party.. actually that’s the reason why we had swimming party last weekend, kase ng kumpleto sila (cousins) and it seldom happens as both my nephews are living in the province.

There goes my week.. now I wonder what this weekend will give me?

Happy Weekend guys!

That 20% Off… haaaays

If there is one brand of clothes that I super duper adore, that would be Carter’s.. clothes for my kids ha.. not for me.. Carter’s got the cutest design…specially for girls.. the kind of clothes that would make you awwwww..

My love affair (and sometimes hate LOL) with Carter’s started when I learned I’ll be having a princess (after 3 boys).. their tops, dresses and sets comes in super nice designs and not to mention that the type of garment they use is of high quality. Sobrang cute ng mga onesies and anything for babies..I also started buying shirts for the boys from Carter’s (although not on their site but from Walmart). And as I compared their clothes, their shirts from Carter’s are still in good condition (mukhang bago lang ang peg).

Last year, when I shopped at Walmart, I noticed a decrease on Carter’s item.. specially shirts for boys.. sadness 🙁 mura pa naman ng Carter’s sa Walmart.. so I have no choice but to buy Carter’s tops from their site.. a bit expensive as compare to Walmart’s price. As I was browsing the site, tops for boys is at $12 each which is already on sale (SRP is $16)..masakit sa bulsa! speically that I need to buy for 3 boys and a little girl.. pass muna sabi ko.. then today, as I browse their stores again, everything is on sale! (40% off) and the tops, only $9.. and for this month, Carter’s is offering 20% off (for orders above $40).. nyaahaa! nawindang ako sa mura!

That 20% off is the deal breaker!

So now, eventhough I promised myself not to work hard, I have to.. all for Carter’s! weeeeh

3 Reasons To Love Max’s Restaurant More(specially this love month)

Max’s Restaurant is one of the few restaurants that we enjoy visiting.. the resto is kid friendly and for a family with four kids, that is the perfect setting. Aside from that, the kids just love the food.. chicken, sinigang, buco pandan and anything that comes from Max’s Corner Bakery.

Now there is more reason to love Max’s Restaurant!

Coco Martin as the new face of Max’s Restaurant.. eto ung endorser pa lang ulam na! hahaha joke lang.. Seriously, when I first heard that Coco Martin is now the face of Max’s Restaurant, I was not even surprised. Coco Martin is just perfect for Max’s.. And when we attended the press con, it proved that indeed Coco Martin is the right person to represent Max’s.. the actor is very humble and accommodating.. just like Max’s Restaurant!
