Date With Chico

Last week, I decided to give myself a treat! A new toy for mommy, a Sony w350 point and shoot camera. Thursday and my money from paypal arrived, I called the seller and we agreed to meet up in SM Megamall the same day.

I brought Chico with me.. after a date with my boys last week, that day is for Chico.

So after we bought the camera, I was tempted to look for some fine linens on the ground floor. But it seems that towing a two year old is not the day for linen hunting. Instead, we looked around Cyberzone for a memory card and a camera case. Then I treat him to Dulcinea. I have a strong feeling that he would love Dulcinea’s Churros Con Choco.. and he did!

And he enjoyed the piece of cake served to us in replacement for the cream puff that is included in my meal. All the photos was taken with my new toy.

Enjoying Point And Shoot

I have been using a dslr for more than a year now. So last week when I finally bought a point and shoot, the kids enjoyed it too. They knew that they can play with it more than my dslr.

I bought my point and shoot form an online seller for only $190 (the online US price is at $199) and the price here in our country is at $340. That’s the best thing about being online most of the times. You can get a lot of bargain finds in the net. Since I started my online gigs and I spend half of my day on the net, I have been an avid online shopper. Everything I need to know, I look in the net.

Now, 4 days after I bought my camera, I am learning how to manipulate it. The intelligent option is too bright and only later that I discovered the program option and I am loving it. I still can have the “in control” feel of my dslr minus the weight.

Having four kids can be difficult in terms of time management. It’s hard to divide my time to them. I still have the whole house to manage. yes I do have two helpers, but well, they are just helpers. I am still the brain on this house. I am still the one who cook and do the laundry and a lot other things. Sometimes I feel guilty of not giving much time to my kids..

I have to thank Johnson’s Baby bedtime for that. I knew for a fact and I believe that giving providing your kids a healthy sleep can be beneficial.. and I always make it a point to make their sleep time a better one. when I attended one of the events held by Johnson’s and Nuffnang, I was glad to know about the bedtime routine. For someone who is so organized, that routine helped a lot. I don’t have to think of activities to make our sleeping time a better one.

So what is our usual bedtime routine?

First they take a bath, sometimes by themselves so that they will to learn to be independent.
Then, Mommy would nag them lovingly to lie down on the bed and will massage them all. Most of the times, I only massage the three boys as Sati would be sleeping by then.
After that, we would talk a bit and then some quiet time and off to la la land..

And now, I am getting luckier everyday as my husband gives the favor back to me! yay!
