Top Mommy Blogger Philippines ~ A blog about everyday mommy issues, parenting, marriage, kids, a little bit of travel, and beauty — basically all about me and my family.
I just saw this #ThankYouBaby video from Pampers yesterday and I find it really cute and heartwarming. After I watched the video, I realized that I haven’t said thank you to the one who calls me mommy.
Thank you, Ykaie for making me realize how fun it is to play again and see the little wonders through your eyes….
A baby shower is something that only happens once or twice for many women, so it needs to be very special and memorable. At the same time, the event should be just as memorable for the guests. The baby may not have been born yet, but this is still the start of its relationship with the people that it will know as it grows up, from close family friends to aunts and uncles.
One of the best ways to make the event memorable is simply to make it unique. Give it little twists and details that set it apart from the thousands of other baby showers that happen each year. A good place to start is by getting AbcFavors.com personalized baby shower favors with the child’s name and the date of the shower engraved or stitched on them. This ties the favors intrinsically to that single child, and people will often save them as keepsakes.
It is also a good idea to hire a photographer for the shower. Even if they are only shooting for an hour or so, which is rather inexpensive, they will really be able to capture all of the fun and excitement. You can then upload the pictures to the Internet, via a printing service, and print off an album to keep at the house. When the child is growing up, he or she will be able to look back at that album and see the very first party that was ever thrown in their honor.
Last Sunday, Ykaie and I had our first mother and daughter date. Sis went swimming with his friends while her cousin Cyra and Cyvrine went out as well.
I took her to the mall. Our first stop was an early dinner at TGI Friday’s where we shared an order or the Jack Daniel’s Pork Chop and Caesar Salad. Then I took her to her favorite place which was TimeZone! She had the time of her life riding the kiddie rides and playing the different arcade games. We even sat down at those massage chairs.
After that we went to Kiddy’s Arts Town located inside the department store. She wanted to try the activity here for the longest time and somehow we couldn’t find time to do so. Last sunday was a day dedicated to Ykaie, so we did the activity there. We chose only a small flower to do which costs ₱149.
I helped a little in putting the colors….
It was baked in an oven for a few minutes and then came out the finish product. Ykaie was very proud of her work and it is now attached on the mirror at her nanay’s Pinky’s clinic.
I already saw a wallet that I like at XOXO last Sunday but I’m still thinking if I should buy it or not.
