Momhood Moments

Archive for March, 2009

You all know that I love arts and crafts, though I’m not good in drawing, but I love crafts so much. I did cross stitching when I was in high school / college, and I did a little scrapbooking as well. I made a little bear for my hubby before with some DIY sushi too, now I’m into braiding and beading… I made 2 braided bracelets for my hubby (picture to come — cellphone’s broken), and I’m planning to make one for myself later (beaded this time). I have spare beads from previous projects, and I’m about to create a beaded bracelet on a cardboard box loom. Just click on the link for the instructions. I found this while doing some research. You may want to try it.

We were the number 1 team last February, thus we were given the privilege to have a team block off this coming Mar. 21 and 22. Our team captain decided that we go to Baguio and have our team building there. Maybe if we were really rich and all that, we could have taken Vegas vacations (wishful thinking). We were also allowed to bring anyone we wish to, so I’m tagging hubby and baby Julie along. I’m really excited that not only will this be my baby Julie’s first time to Baguio, but this will also be her first time to travel north. I know for sure that she’ll love Baguio’s cool air and atmosphere.

I had stayed in Baguio when I was young with my cousins Joanna and Arjay for almost few months, but I was a kid back then so I don’t really remember anything in Baguio besides Burnham Park. LOL! I can’t wait and take pictures of whatever will happen, that is if I get my cellphone fixed. Yes it won’t turn on — again (right after a full charge on the battery). I may be going to Greenhills later after my shift to get it fixed… Wish me luck!

Next is the Best Mom Award:

1. Show the award logo in your post. 2. Pick a picture you have with your kiddo(s). 3. Post should include your best experience as a Mom. 4. Nominate other blogger mom’s out there that you consider the best mom, like yourself.

Here’s a picture of me and my baby Julie…

Being with my baby is truly a blessing. It all started when I gave birth last July 14, 2007. It’s one day that I will never forget, the pain and the happiness felt during the delivery. Doctors and nurses were all around me, hoping for my baby’s and my safety. Everyone in the family was excited, but no one will ever know how it really felt, only I. Now that my baby’s 19 months old, she calls me “Mimi” and would cry whenever I go out, and laughs when I get home. I know she loves me as much as I love her…

I know being a mom is tough, and of course, every mom deserves this award. Any mom who passes by this blog, please do grab this. You all deserve to be called, “The Best Mom”.
