June 12, 2008… My eyes got teary as I was witnessing my baby Julie’s first steps! It was wiggly but she can manage to “baby walk” for 3-5 steps without anyone or anything supporting her. Gosh… My baby is growing up so fast! It got me so excited but at the same time, there was a little “it’s hard to believe” sadness inside me… I just can’t believe that my baby Julie is growing up! The transition from the little baby who was once inside me is now starting to walk like a little girl…

I never knew that being a mom feels this way. There are few drops of tears in my cheeks as I write this post, and good thing hubby is taking a rest. Sometimes I’m very excited and I couldn’t wait to see my baby do new stuffs, but whenever she learns how, it gives me this sad but happy feeling. I don’t know… It’s really confusing… I think almost all the moms out there feels the same way as I do when they first saw their baby walk his/her first steps.

If I get the chance, I will video baby Julie and her wiggly first steps to show the whole world!

Cleaning the house… Argh! Sometimes it can be really annoying and energy consuming. As a working mom, cleaning should not take the most out of my resting time. From sweeping the floor, to dusting the place, it can really be quite a tedious job. I use the local feather duster and the traditional broom which more often than not just spreads the dusts more and never actually cleans them up. But good thing I found these cordless vacuums! These vacuums earned the coveted Energy Star rating.

The Dirt Devil AccuCharge Cordless Hand Vac, with a 15.6 volt battery, that charges twice as fast, and utilizes 70% of the energy helps cuts our energy cost. It also has a retractable brush strip for carpets, and non-smooth areas, and a quick-flip crevice tool for the tight spaces like on the cabinets and corners and a big empty dirt cup to accumulate those dirts and dusts. It is also good for car interiors using the brush strip. When you are not using the hand vacuum, just place it back to the charging station to make sure that it is always fully charged and ready to use.

Another one is the Dirt Devil AccuCharge Cordless Stick Vac, which is a cordless vacuum cleaner
without the hassle of bags. It has its own easy-empty dirt cup which takes away the “bag problem”. And best of all, it’s cordless! Which means there’s no twirling around the cords. Amazing isn’t it?

Whew! With these tools, I will be able to clean my house hassle free!

Yesterday, I went to SSS Binondo Branch to finally change my name from Maricel Tan to Maricel Waniwan, and declared my baby Julie Rayne as a dependent. It was actually my 2nd time to visit this branch because during my first visit, they told me that they needed a Certified True Copy of my marriage contract and not the original one. It was really annoying because they never specified that. So I had to wait for a week or so just to able to get my CTC of marriage contract from NSO Helpline, which sends the document straight to your home.

So anyways, as soon as I got my CTC of marriage contract, I went to SSS again. Again, I had another conflict. They told me that they needed the stamped copy of my baby Julie Rayne’s birth certificate. Good thing I had that with me and photocopied it immediately.

At long last, after 14 months of being married, I finally got my name changed at SSS!
