Mommy Moments: First Time Mommy 2

The theme for this week is our favorite Mommy Moments entry.. but.. every entry is my fvaorite!! (because get to brag about my kiddos LOL) So instead of posting my entries like first smile or bath time entry I post this instead.. SATI’s Moments. I never got to show you some of her firsts.. so here it is:

One of her first smile…It’s not genuine yet but it is not obvious it’s just gas passing right?

Her first bath.. er.. not her first since I gave birth to her. Actually it was her first bath on our bathroom. I really had to thank (BIGGEST THANKS!!!!) my Marce Seiko for giving us this uber cool bath gadget:

I never thought baby bathing can be this easy. With this gadget, the preparation time was cut into more than half.

Before, I would put some warm water on her bath tub, test the water, then bring it in the living room. I prefer bathing her on the living room so I can sit comfortably. But before bringing the tub to the living room, we have to make sure there is a small (and stable table) table for the tub. I also had to put a pail of pail of water near me to rinse her after soaping her. Then we would put the foam inside the tub to protect her from slipping. Then I would put Sati in the
tub and start soaping and rinse her and bring her to the crib and dress her. After that, the helper would take the tub away, and store it in some place. End of bath time..

Now with the bath gadget Marce Seiko gave us.. this is how our bath routine went:

I would put some warm water on ~~her bath tub~~ the pail in the bathroom, test the water, then bring it in the living room. I prefer bathing her on the living room so I can sit comfortably. But before bringing the tub to the living room, we have to make sure there is a small (and stable table) table for the tub. I also had to put a pail of pail of water near me to rinse her after soaping her. Then we would put the foam inside the tub to protect her from slipping. Then I would put Sati in the tub and start soaping and rinse her and bring her to the crib and dress her.~~After that, the helper would take the tub away, and store it in some place.~~ End of bath time..

See how it erased some of our bath tie routines? COOLNESS! This gadget is a must for mom who have babies..

nga pala Marce ano ba name ng gadget na ito? di kokase mabasa kase alam mo na.. di ako marunong mag hapon hihi

Memories Of Christmas List

Host: It’s been a week since our last episode and I really missed you guys. But of course we cannot ask for more from pehpot specially now that she is maintaining 8 blogs. WHAT!?! 8 blogs! How is she doing it? Book her now! I wanna interview her and know how she handles it all. And I am pretty sure you all want to. Even our guest blogger today for sure, wants to know the blogging schedule of pehpot. Itching to know who’s our guest blogger for today?

Let’s all welcome the beautiful mom (who almost made it Ms Philippines beauty contest) behind Memories Preserved Online. Give her a round of applause.. welcome to the show Paula!

Paula: Thanks and also thanks to Pehpot for inviting me here at her show. She told me we will talk about my kid and how me and S handle his Christmas “list”. I wonder why she invited my here, maybe because she had no blogging friends left to invite (I was just kidding and pehpot knows that). Honestly, I am really glad that I am here.

Host: Haha, I am sure she invited because she likes you. And yes our topic for today is about gift buying, so let me ask you, are you done shopping for you kid’s Christmas gifts?

Paula: Are you kidding? We can never be done shopping with our kid. As long as Z’s dad feels he’s still a kid we’ll always be buying him toys. It’s a year long event, I tell you. Last November, his dad bought him a gift that was supposedly for Christmas. Of course, dad couldn’t help but give it to him as soon as he got home. Now that Christmas is approaching we feel it would not be appropriate for him not to open any gift on Christmas day so we’ll surely buy another one which hopefully, will stay unopened till Christmas day.

Host: I think all parents like that. I heard even Pehpot already gave their gifts for their kids and yet they were thinking of buying them gifts to open this coming Christmas. So did you give in to his demands? Like buying the toys he want? But before answering that, we have a surprise intermission number.. surprise! surprise!

Host: Whoa! Is that you husband? Is he a professional singer?

Paula: Pehpot told you about it? He is not, but he really likes to perform. Hi S!

Host: Ahaha, but his good, you must be very proud of him. Back to our topic.. So did you give in to his demands? Like buying the toys he want?

Paula: Fortunately, Z is really not that specific with his gifts as long as you give him a toy car then he’s okay with it. Z is so agreeable with his mom and dad when it comes to toys. We can convince him easily that this or that is the perfect toy and he’ll agree. So usually what dad wants, what Z gets. Or when I feel we ought to buy him something educational instead then I’m the one that does the convincing. LOL!

Host: How do you deal with Z when he wants something that is beyond you budget? Or when he wants something and you don’t think it is practical to buy it, how do you explain it to him?

Paula:We don’t let him hold it! As far as Z is concerned a toy isn’t his until we let him hold it. If something caught his fancy and it’s beyond our budget then we just tell him outright it’s too expensive. We’re fortunate that he, even in his young mind, understands that we can’t buy every toy he likes. We can even visit a toy store and not buy a single toy. To tell you the truth I’m already overwhelmed with the number of toys he has and I think Z himself can see that. We don’t have any problem with him in buying toys at all or maybe because he’s only four and is still in the “agreeable” stage.

Host: Lucky for you, he can easily understands those things and would throw into a tantrum when he wants something..or did he has any “best actor performance” that you can remember?

Paula: There was one time when he did have a tantrum. We were in MOA and it was only in the checkout counter that I saw he’s holding a toy. We already bought him one that’s expensive so I removed that toy from his hand. When we were outside the store he started crying loudly which took us aback because he never makes a scene. That’s when we realized it was bad to let him hold something we won’t buy in the end. I don’t even remember what how we got him to stop crying it was certainly hard to reason with a heartbroken little kid but I know he eventually forgot about it and we did learn our lesson.

Host: Awww. It really is hard to explain to anyone on that stage even on adults..LOL.. Thank you so much Paula for gracing our show.

Paula: Thank you also and please visit my blog Memories Preserved Online. You can also catch me on my other sites:
