Mother's Day 2018

Hi everyone!

How did your Mother's day went?

So sorry for not blogging that much. Minsan wala lang talaga akong time o minsan, I don't know what to share. Haha!

Anyway, I tried reading back to see what we did for Mother's day in the last couple of years. I found out that I only started blogging about it since 2015, missed blogging about 2016 then had a wonderful and memorable 2017. This time, I want to make sure to blog about every special event that happened and will happen to us since it feels so nice reading back. I always feel surprise reading them all up. =)

So our Mother's day was nothing special this year. We stayed at home all day. Nakakatamad kasi maglalabas ngayon, super init talaga ng weather! Ang bilis pa naman makainit ng ulo when it's really hot!

I woke up at around 5:30 in the morning and found Daryl sweeping the floor. I realized nagbaha pala sa loob ng bahay namin! There were water everywhere! Sa sala until sa kitchen! Buti na lang, it didn't reach our room pa. We found out that the water pipe broke again. We had a water pipe going inside the house under our kitchen cabinets. There's a small hole in the cabinet where the pipe goes and that's the one that's leaking. We just had one fixed earlier that week. We thought that the pipe broke due to our ref being pushed to close to the wall. Later on we realized, that it was a rat whose actually causing the trouble! Could you imagine that? I actually spent Php800 just to fix the water pipe twice already in less than 7 days?!

Daryl said that there's a rat living in our kitchen cabinet whom might got bigger and was trying to get out in the same hole. Since he can no longer fit, yung way out is to break the water pipe! Grabe sobrang hassle! I was mad thinking how can a rat be so selfish! hahaha! Anyway, we had Dudut, the cat staying inside the house so at least she could trouble the mouse while working on the pipe again. I am hoping he would stop doing so dahil wala na akong budget to get it fix for the third time. =|



After the pipe repair, I cannot believe I was sweating a lot yesterday! I don't sweat so much even if I'm working out not unless yung mga tipong Aerobics talaga or dancing. I was wondering ganun ba kainit yesterday that I sweat this much when I wasn't in front of the fan.

We ended the day with an impromptu family post dinner na kanin pa din! hahaha! My sister and I met for paper works and treated us in Jollibee.



We had some take homes for Daryl because he didn't go with us anymore.

Anyway, our day was quite common but at least we prevent ourselves from spending so much on days like this. It was not in our budget for the month which I intentionally did. I didn't foresee the water pipe fix so our eat out budget has been used. We don't go out often these days to be honest because we are preparing for something big. Lols! Kidding.

So how did you get to celebrate our day, Momsh?

Our Mother's Day 2017

Hi Mommies?

Did you guys had a fun Mother's Day this year?

I did! It was one of the best Mother's Day ever.

You know how much I love going places and this year, we made it possible to celebrate Mother's Day more special. On my last post about Daryl's 28th birthday, I mentioned I want to celebrate small things if we can. Those small things that we do will sure make Jami remember the bonds of a family and how important occasions are. Even before Mother's Day, I asked Ma Belen if we could go out of town and she made it possible for us. I am so glad the plan pushed through on Mother's Day. =)

Jami wants to go swimming na kaya sad! :D
We had our out of town at Stilts Calatagan last Sunday kaso na sad ako to see na wala pala kaming family photo! Na realize ko when the next day when I was uploading the photos on Facebook. This is the only photo of the three of us tapos hindi pa nakisama si Jami. =(

Anyway, I'll tell you all about our trip. I can't wait to share with you the wonderful place we went to. =) Belated Happy Mother's Day to Mama, Ma Belen, my sisters, extended sisters, friend and kumares and everyone of you who's reading it.

Sbarro at SM Mall of Asia: A Mom's Day Treat

As I said, I had a wonderful Mother's Day this year. We had a dinner at Sbarro in Mall of Asia just before we head back to Las Pinas. We originally planned to eat in Yellow Cab but on our way to the store, we came across Sbarro where you can see how they make their pizza. My FMIL said that we'll eat there na lang.

It was not the first time that Daryl and I decided to eat there. I remembered the last time, we were already lining up but backed out since we found the pizzas a little expensive. We thought to ourselves that we would give it a try next time. I guess that next time was THAT time - on Mother's Day!

I noticed that there's always a bunch of people eating in Sbarro and I want to know what's the fuss all about.


Different selections of pasta.

More salads!
Here's what we ordered.

One whole size of Hawaiian Pizza for P750
I had Spaghetti with Meat sauce for P103/half serving for Jami (no photo..)

We were so busy running around with Jami. He wants to keep walking around the tables and chairs, getting the Sbarro's balloons and just simply enjoying a bigger space to run around.

Catch me if you can, Daddy! =)
 By the way, Jami ate a little but not as much as he would eat a Jollibee spaghetti. Maybe it's with the sauce as it wasn't sweet like with Jollibee.We also had Lemonade and Raspberry Juice, I think? for P44.

Their Hawaiian Pizza was ok, nothing special. It tasted dull without the hot sauce but when I put some, mejo sumarap naman. :p The spaghetti, well.. I am not sure if it's italian like pero I am not really used kasi sa Italian spaghetti. Mas nakalakihan ko ang Filipino Style, yung sweet style spaghetti pero their spaghetti is ok din for me.

The location is ok too kasi sa mall naman pero yung mismong branch is kind of humid. It's as if there's no AC. Probably because it's crowded kaya mainit. Mejo hindi tuloy naging comfortable si Jami. We also had trouble with our pizza. When I was placing my order kasi, I asked kung gaano katagal ise serve yung pizza namin. The lady crew pointed out on the pizza and said na yun na daw ang pizza and it's ready. When we went to our table, it took them around 30 minutes before the pizza is served. Kung hindi pa nagpunta yung FMIL ko at mejo sinupladahan sila eh baka hindi na nakarating ang pizza. We asked the other crew who's assisting the diners pero ang sabi nya hindi pa daw available without even checking in their kitchenette kung meron na ba or wala pa. He just said, "wala pa po".

Daryl and I talked about our dinner there and he said that he wanted sana a different pizza, yung tipong specialty talaga ng Sbarro. I failed to ask their best seller pizza but Daryl and I agreed that we would give Sbarro another try sometime in the future. =)

My Happy Mother's Day 2015

Belated Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers out there!!

So what did you do last Sunday? I hope all Mama's had a very good day celebrating our importance in everyone's life.

Anyhow, my Mother's Day celebration was kind of weight-gaining day.

FMIL picked us up in the morning for our weekend stay in their house. We opted not to sleepover since Jami is spending his weekdays in their house naman.

We had our breakfast at Jollibee muna. Look at how Jami loves Jollibee spaghetti. =)

Oppsss!! Caught on cam!
Oh dear!! They saw my big mouth Mommy!
After our breakfast, we went straight to FMIL's sister's house so we can get another round of meal. Hehe.. Since I am too full, I ate the chicken na lang. :p

In the afternoon, FMIL, Daryl's cousin and me had a salon treat courtesy of FMIL. I had a pedicure and opted to leave my  hands free from nail polish. Alam ko naman na matatanggal din agad eh and I prefer my fingernails clean looking. =)

Before we go back to Las Pinas, Daryl wanted to go to Mall of Asia for dinner. We tried Sbarro which was our first time to dine there which I'll be blogging too in a separate post.

While seated, Daryl and I along with Jami went to a nearby cupcake stand to buy a surprise treat for FMIL, Nanay and Mine since it's Mother's Day. When we got back, we greted FMIL, "Happy Mother's Day, Mother!" and I guess she's happy with the cupcakes! I just hope she likes them. =)

As soon as we got home, we went naman to Nanay's house to hand her his Mother's day cupcake..

Silly Nanay! :p
We got home really tired but happy, not to mention that we were very full with all the lamon that we did that day! Oh, I so love Mother's day!! =)

Of course, I had my own set of cupcakes..

Oh! I love red velvet cupcakes.. A LOT!! =)
