Permalink This was the night I went back home. The night I saw what I’ve been looking for. The night that made me who I am today, the night I believed that LOVE is real. This. This was the start of my forever. Earlier today I felt sad, because I didn’t find anything on my doorstep. I missed the times that Babe has to make an alibi just to get something for me for Valentines day (which is not so him btw, because he is not the “i want to surprise you” type). But then again, I gave it a loud “sigh” and turned the music up. yeah I’m still feeling a little gloomy but the day’s almost done. I skipped going out with friends and opted for spending vday with A. it will all be normal. soon.

Nanny Rant

ang hirap magpalit ng Yaya! I can’t go to work!

Alex’s been looking for Gina. And she didn’t giggle the whole day. Its her 7th month-day pa naman today, I didn’t even catch a single smile.

I had to take her along with me on my appointment and cancel the rest of the day because she’s crying when I’m out of sight. :\

I sneaked out to go to the grocery only to find out that she cried herself to sleep. :(

my poor baby. :|

Christmas Shopping Rant

Dear Adie, 

Miss na miss na kita. You have no idea how I frowned today because I needed your advice on the things I was buying. And how I almost cried because we used to do our Christmas shopping together, and I missed that.

I feel bad because wala ng sumasangga sa mga sumasalubong sakin, walang nagbubuhat ng pinamili ko, walang humahawak ng kamay ko. Walang kumi-kiss habang pumipili ako ng bibilhin o nakapila sa cashier. Wala ng kumakanta habang nagsasalita ako, yun pala nakikinig sa ipod sa ka-boringan sa tagal kong pumili. Wala ng nagsasabi sakin ng, “Babe, jan ka lang ha? may titingnan lang ako dun.”

Wala na ding nagtatanong sakin ng, “tingnan mo yun oh, you want?”.. Wala akong ieexpect na surprise sa Christmas eve! Ang sad sad, kase wala ding nagsabi sakin kanina ng, “andami naman nito, naha-hungry na ko.”

Pero ang pinaka-nakakainis ay yung may nakita kong mga sweet na couple na nags-shopping at gusto ko silang paghiwalayin kase naiinggit ako!


Ranting again,
your Wife. :\

Permalink Its 6:47 PM MNL, 10:47 AM LDN. This is how it works for us. Its his rest day, and the end of my day. I love watching him sleep, he seems at peace, and tired at the same time. I know its not the same as what we’re used to, but we can settle for this for the moment. I’m so looking forward to his Summer break. He’s coming home for Alex’s birthday. (fingers crossed) I love you babe, I love you so much.
Permalink Allergies—NOT. Last 17th of November, we went to Alex’s pedia for her monthly immunization and to consult her skin’s condition. She’s having skin dryness especially on the elbows and knees. I’ve been seeing it for 2 weeks but wasn’t alarmed because I thought it was caused by being always on her stomach and I was thinking that maybe, those parts are rubbing against the sheets—until the 15th. I noticed that there are also dry rash on some parts of her arms, back and legs. I immediately called her pedia and asked about her situation. She said that it MIGHT be allergies to milk (or soap) because they usually show on the 4th month of life. I told her that she uses Lactacyd as her shampoo and Johnson’s baby bath for her body. I told her that we also use Johnson’s moisturizing baby lotion before bedtime, Wilkins distilled water + NAN 1 HW for her milk in the morning, and that she is breast fed at night. I was really paranoid because I’ve read and seen babies with skin asthma, and the parents are having a hard time dealing with it. I.HAVE.ASTHMA. So I was (and still am) afraid that my daughter might also have one since its hereditary. I was instructed to stop using everything except for Lactacyd and see her 2 days after. TO my relief, she said that it is not skin asthma. The rashes are very mild to be one, and that she has patients who has worst than worse case. She also told me that her 3 kids has this condition, and the trouble they’re going through because of it. Environment (dust, temperature), hair or formula milk could cause these rashes. So she told me that we will try using Physiogel Hypoallergenic Moisturizer (picture posted above, Php 553.00 for 75 ml tube on Mercury Drug) first, and will follow up after 7 days if the condition improves—or not. If not, we will resort to applying steroids and will change her milk to a hypo-allergenic type. The cream has natural lipids similar to the skin’s physiological lipids to protect and restore healthy skin. It is non-comedogenic, contains no colorants, no perfume and no preservatives. So far, after using it for 5 days, Alessandra’s skin condition improves. The rashes and dryness are merely visible and is somewhat smooth when touched. So I will continue to use it as her “lotion” for as long as she’s ready to be introduced to a new baby product.
