2013 Christmas Rush!

Hello 2014! Today is January 6, 2014 and my first day at work! (I know! buena mano ang leave) I welcomed 2014 with a flu, so bad, but as I said, I am still very positive for 2014! Last year was a bit difficult for me, for us, but I know it will be better this year. In spite of the struggles, I learned and realized a lot of things last year and will try to do a separate post for that. Speaking of learnings, I wanna share you how my December went, how rush it was. And I promise to do better this year to avoid the rush. 

Every year, palagi nalang ako nagugulat, December na pala?! I am always a crammer! so when all the mommies are busy shopping and preparing for gifts, I am packing money in ampaos. Hindi na kinaya ng powers ko na magshopping because of the hectic schedule at school and work. But mind you, there is a weekend at school that I came early. As in I am only 5 minutes  late!, thats once in a blue moon in my weekend classes. 

I am really a mess last year.  I don't even have any gift for D! Ngaun pa naman na he's appreciating gifts and christmas, the lights and kanta "santa claus". Last minute I planned on buying a red sock, but when I came back, GONE na! But nalang D has great ninong and ninangs, and marami pa din siya na-open na mga gifts!


For the two months, I am 7days rolling, so no weekends and play with D so I made it up to D by bringing him at our office christmas party, D enjoyed a lot, my officemates also enjoyed, ako?! hindi ko alam. Haha look at D disaster at our car?! batang energizer bunny yata siya!


December is the time of the super stressed, busy at iba pang words, but my boys are soundly relaxing and peaceful at sleep. I envy them, so that morning I decided to skip my weekend class. Hays.. 

Father and son talaga?!

As a result of my unexplainable cramming attitude, as usual we made our shopping during the christmas rush peak, and while I am stressed looking at good buys, and R is stressed with me dahil ikot ako ng ikot. D is relaxing at our cart! Hindi kasi uso sa amin ang stroller, ayaw niya sumakay dun, pero sa grocery cart, ayan at nakataas pa ang paa. Hay D, you never fail to make mommy amazed!


We spent the last two weeks of December at the province, we left the busy city and I thought I will have enough time to read, relax and reflect because mas slow and buhay dun, Akala ko lang pala yun. Time flies so fast when you have a comfortable bed, cold weather and yummy food everyday. Ang bilis matapos ng bakasyon!

 Speaking of rush, this little boy can't wait to eat his "getti" even if we are still praying, ayan!


D also joined is his first kiddie Christmas party, since he is the smallest, hindi pa siya kasali sa mga games except for the exchange gifts and dance-dance. 

Nagsasariling magsplit. 

The rest of the group. 

I may be not a very good girl last 2013, but I still thank santa for giving the that best gifts. R and baby D. Promise I'l make it up this year. haha.



And speaking of rush, here is the evidence of "rush" D is always on the move nowadays. I cannot document na how many flower pots, vases, glass bottles, placemats and toys he destroyed. Kagulo talaga! knowing that he will just turn 2. Paano kapag 2 ka na talaga anak?!



And we started our year at the beach. Yeah, remember on my Christmas wish list?! haha nabasa at natupad naman siya ni R. Yun lang, we didn't see baby D run and play along the shores. Yuck daw kasi ang sand. We didn't enjoyed as what we planned because we're sick. But I loved how we walk hand in hand along the shore. How we tease and chat at the waters. I loved how the infinity of the water inspires me to achieve my limitless possibilities this year. 

Cheers for 2014!
