For Daddy this Time

I just received the box containing the loots from my last online shopping for Cobi and Bela and I am really happy with my purchases. And what a great timing since I received an email from my good friend Ems informing me that our favorite online store is on sale again and is even offering additional 25% off to selected sale items.

I checked the site and most of the items that I like are for 9 month old babies already which means that Cobi still has to wait for eight months before he can wear them. And so I thought that it is a sign that I should stop shopping for my kids for the meantime and maybe I can shop for hubby this time.

I checked out their Men’s section and found some nice men's polo shirts that are on sale too. The polo shirts will be perfect for hubby as he can use it for work as he only wears polo shirts when at work and not those formal office attire so the sale is really a perfect timing for me to shop for him.

I already added a lot of items in my shopping cart and I will just ask hubby if he likes the color that I selected and this will all go to Checkout.

Gone Fishing

When we went to Tagaytay Highlands last summer for the MBAP’s summer getaway, some of us went fishing with our kids before finally deciding to call it a day. I was with Bela at first but then I realized that there is no way I will be able to catch a fish for her. So I have to call Howell for reinforcement. LOL.

Since Howell spent his childhood in the province and I remember he always tells me that they live close to the river where he always spend his afternoon, I thought that he is good in fishing. But after an hour of fishing, Bela and Howell end up with only one small fish. LOL.

Howell got really frustrated but Bela was already so proud of her dad for catching one fish.

Bela: “Oh, good job daddy. You caught a fish.”

So Howell really took this by heart and he swear that if we will renovate our house in Bulacan, he will definitely build a pond and buy pond supplies where he and can Bela can practice fishing. LOL. Don’t worry daddy, you still have less than a year to practice before the next MBAP’s Summer Getaway.

Hubby, Baby Boy and Airsoft

Hubby is into different kinds of sports. One of his favorite is playing paintball and now he is interested to play airsoft too. That is why when we are having a conversation about baby # 2, it is quite obvious (even though he does not want to admit it, that he wants a baby boy for our baby # 2.

He kept on showing me the different airsoft aeg rifle and airsoft accessories that he wants to purchase and that he is excited to play airsoft with his future son. I know how expensive these toys are but good thing hubby and his friends found a site where they can purchase airsoft rifles, pellets and other accessories at a very affordable price, otherwise hubby will be really broke. LOL.

But I am happy that as early as now, hubby is already looking forward to sharing his love for sports with his son and I can’t wait to post pictures here of my future son and the daddy wearing tactical gears while they play airsoft.

No Toys for Him

My husband has a collection of McFarlene toys. One wall in our spare room is now full of his toys that he hangs on that wall and every week I will really notice that their numbers are increasing.

Do you know how much each toys costs? They are not really cheap and one McFarlene action figure can buy one 1.5 kilos of Belo’s milk. But you know, that is hubby’s only vice so I really can’t say no every time he asks my permission if he can buy a new toy.

So he got really excited when he discovered the online site of Toys R’ Us since the price of his toys there are way much cheaper if he will buy it here. So when my best friend was in the US, he tried shopping ordering online and sent them to my friend’s address so he can bring it back to Manila when he comes back here after his training. But hubby was really disappointed since he received an email the next day from Toys R’ Us that they are not accepting international credit cards at the moment so all his orders got cancelled.

Poor dad. He is already looking forward for his new toys. Oh well, maybe he is not meant to buy those toys at the moment. But I promised him that I will look for a site that accepts Paypal or international cards so he can shop for his toys there as our Christmas gift for him.

Gift of Love

When the smell of my husband’s birthday was thick in the air, I was a bit worried because I could not cerebrate and figured well what present I would give him. San of any idea I made my traditional trip to the mall with a big thought that somewhere in there I could find a perfect gift for my beloved behalf.

And yes indeed my instinct didn’t failed me at all. As I sauntered and treaded my steps along the path ways I was strongly gravitated by the sights in one of the mall shops which were selling different types of watches wherein pocket watch as I went inside was among the item collections ostentatiously displayed which had truly rapt my eyes for its fine filigree designs. That was stylish enough to prance around town for the individual sense of flair and style where both form and functions come hand in hand well which are pretty cool and totally classic. The esthetic quality of the product was manifested and boasted by its time precision accuracy that was intelligently and brilliantly engineered to meet the satisfaction of every customer. As I couldn’t have agreed more and there was no doubt it was the best choice and to slide from being grand and being somewhat grandiose, I bought the 14 carat gold plated one to add a little frill on it.

When I handed my gift on the day of my husband’s birthday, when he opened the box, there was a complete relish on his face and he rewarded me with warm hugs and kisses and felicitous remark, I love you.
