Anmum Mommy Circle (plus Anmum Giveaway!)

With my four pregnancies, my OB would always remind me to drink y vitamins and at least 2 glasses of milk. She recommends Anmum as my milk supplement. I believe that drinking Anmum helped a lot, all four are very smart! They have strong bones and I never had a problem with their digestion.

Anmum Materna provides Folate, DHA and Gangliosides, Calcium for baby’s body and brain development. It also provides Iron to reduce the risk of Iron Deficiency Anemia and Vitamin B6 to reduce the effects of nausea It also has Fibre to support a healthy digestive system. And because Anmum Materna is rich in folate, it is also recommended for women who are planning to get pregnant. It also comes in different flavors, vanilla, choco and hazelnut (what?!? hazelnut? bakit ngayon ka lang? haha).

Now that I am done with pregnancy and still continue to breastfeed my baby, Anmum is still there to help me through Anmum Lacta. It’s a breastfeeding moms must have as it contains Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B12, Folate, Calcium, and Iron and all these are essential during the breastfeeding period.

If you’re an Anmum user like me, I’m sure you would want to be a part of the Anmum Mommy Circle. Share your experience and celebrate motherhood through Anmum Mommy Circle. You can also ask for advice or even ask the in house nutritionist.

And now, the exciting part: Anmum Materna Giveaway!

Halloween Party/ 9th Birthday Party

last week was like a career shift for me.. from Mommy blogger to an events organizer! hahahaha

Wednesday was Scout investiture… Thursday was UN Parade and school Halloween Party… and first born’s school party for his 9th birthday (yes, he do celebrate his birthdays not just once.. this year, we had 4 celebrations! one was when we went to Tagaytay and a Marites Crab treat at Claw Daddy.. second was his real birthday.. where he blew a small cake.. third was the school celebration and the fourth one was the Halloween party here at home)

The party turned out so good.. the kids had so much fun and enjoyed their loot bags (ay shucks I forgot to take a photo of the loot bags.. but it was a simple bag made out of black cartolina for the boys and orange for the girls).. I declared a candy war prior to his party.. so no candies on the loot bag.. just toys, stickers and some biscuits. We had Beyblade (not original no) and books and stickers as prizes for the games (trip to Jerusalem, Pinoy Henyo, Stop dance, disjointed hands eating contest and longest greetings)…

For our food, I prepared a few scary and “it’s so gross, I can’t eat it” kind of goodies:

The bloody glass, the used cotton buds and the mouth piece came from The Peach Kitchen… ah no.. she did not delivered those goodies or creepies here.. I got it from her blog.. from her collection of Halloween Recipe 🙂

The fingers and the worms and the mouse.. got it from the web (but gosh I can’t remember where!) Basically the chopped fingers were done using a wheat bread and some almonds.

The rats were done using cherries, kissed, almonds, melted chocolate and Nerds (for the eyes). Just dip the cherries to a melted chocolate (I use an ordinary milk chocolate, Goya, to be exact and the fact that it hardens easily adds character to the rat’s body). The kissed were used as the head, the almonds as ears and the red Nerds as eyes.. nobody ate it but me.. they were so grossed out by the idea of eating rat.. wahahahaha

The kids liked the used cotton buds the most.. they enjoyed it so much! The fingers, since no one wants it (yes even I couldn’t take it) were used in one of the games.. finger eating contest! The first one to finish a finger wins! hahahaha Tita Sam brought sinful cupcakes!

The decors? Monique’s back turned into a funky jack o lantern vampire! I also made a few rosettes (inspired by Ava’s party styling).. it’s so haaaard to do pala! amateur na amateur ang drama ng mga rositas ko! parang kinulang sa dilig na rosas wahaha.. a few DIY decors.. a black curtain with orange papers hanging on it.. and a few cobwebs.. and there goes our Halloween Party!

more photos!

TGIF: The Best Siblings!

a long overdue post.. not naman that long.. pero this was supposed to be for last Friday.. you know TGIF! but 4 events last week and I was drained.. ubos na ubos ang lahat sa akin! in fact it was only now that I’m starting to recover.. and yet another party is coming! Sometimes I wish I have the energy of a horse and tentacles of an octopus.. ano kaya itsura noon no? Horse na Octopus pa haha

So let me start this TGIF post by saying hello to November! I don’t have to claim you because since I was born, you are already mine.. you see, my mom was born on this month.. and I am more than lucky to have her.. so yes, from the very first day that I was with my mom, November is already my month.. but the greatness of November was doubled 3 years ago.. when a little princess made her way to our home.. or is she an angel? whatever, she’s the best thing that ever happened to us.. she made us complete (argh teary eyed again! I guess my eyes will never stop shedding tears for being so thankful to your arrival my little girl)…

October went by and left us with so many blessings… too much that my energy was not able to keep up hahaha

I am so thankful for having the best siblings in the world..who are always there whenever I need them.. my parties would never be successful if not for them.. for late nights preparations and never ending jokes.. I am so blessed to have them.

Thankful for a mother that never got tired of me.. and to her magic that works.. always.. iba ang powers mo mudra! ibang iba!

Thankful for the ever understanding husband.. and of course to my kids.. and thankful for the 9 challenging and yet fulfilling years of being a mom haha

This month, I know there is more that I would be thankful of… so Hello there November.. let’s celebrate your arrival with a blast!
