My 2008 Christmas experience

My Christmas was a blast even though we spent it in our house. My husband cooked a very delicious dinner for us while I was doing my favorite past time and that is watching TV. It doesnt matter anyways cause my husband really loves to cook. He did the groceries and not having enough sleep because of the chores in the house. It was a memorable christmas not because my husband was doing all the chores but because it was our first christmas as husband and wife.

After celebrating the yule tide season, we spent our christmas vacation at a province: a place where tourists enjoyed themselves by swimming on a very refreshing pool and just singing their heart out on a karaoke machine. My relatives and my neighbor was with us at that time.

It was also a very memorable christmas for my mom cause she fell down the stairs. I was really worried for her that I screamed at my husband for help. He quickly helped my mom and comfort her. My mom was very terrified that she cant believe what had happened. I just couldnt help but to scream cause It was me and my aunt who saw the incident. It was really terrible for my mom that she had bruises in her knees. My father and uncle came after enjoying themselves in the pool. My father was worried that he held my mom's hand and comfort her also.

It was really a christmas to remember. Im glad I've spent it with my most loved people in my life. Not to mention the food that we prepared even though it was just a simple meal but it was cooked by my husband. I was so full that I cant get up easily, seriously. That is how glutonous I am, really. Im not making this one up. I just love to eat this days cause I am pregnant. Pregnant woman loves to eat 24/7.

So, that was my christmas experience last year and hope for another great yet unforgettable christmas this year. Christmas is best celebrated with family and friends, the ones that is close to your heart.

My new years resolution plan


New year's day is the time to celebrate, enjoy and just be happy on what new year has to offer. We need to look back to our past and and look forward on what new year has to offer. It is also the time to think on what changes we want or need to make in order to make life more meaningful for the the years to come. Do you think about the bad habits that you need to give up? Or do you have a new resolution plan yet? Here are my top 10 new years resolution plan:
  1. LOVE MY HUSBAND MORE. I have always love my husband but for the next wonderful year I will love him even more.
  2. BECOME A GOOD MOM. Since Im already a mom, I want to be what is best for my baby that is why it is one of my resolution plan. Being a good and caring mom.
  3. ALWAYS BE CONTENTED AND HAPPY. There are times that I keep complaining about our lifestyle. I was just not used to this life anymore that is why for this coming year I want to make the best out of it. I will try to be happy and just be contented on what life has to offer.
  4. GET ORGANIZED. Honestly, I am not as organized as you think I am. Our room is just messy. My mom does all the cleaning in the house. That is how lazy I am when it comes to chores. So, for this year our room will be a clean place to sleep and rest in.
  5. ENJOY LIFE TO THE FULLEST. I will definitely enjoy my life next year now that Im expecting a baby. This will be a year to remember.
  6. QUIT SMOKING. I have already stopped smoking right before I knew Im expecting a baby but this time I will definitely stopped my bad yet deadly habit and that is smoking. Giving up the old habits that are bad and start living the clean or healthy way. Its never easy giving up the things that you like or the things you enjoy but thats what new years resolution is about.
  7. GET FIT. I will maintain my desired weight before by exercising. Getting fit is a start of living the healthy yet fulfilling life.
Now that I have a resolution plan for next year, all I have to do is to do it and I will have a happy and contented life by next year. So, for those who doesnt have any resolution plan next year, why dont you create a new plan and do it.

My life as an expecting mom

When I was still not expecting a baby my life was normal. I was active and always want to do stuff on my own . I want to get busy and just act normal. But now that Im expecting a baby, life for me is not the same as before. Im always tired and get easily pissed off or agitated. I have always like perfumes and colognes before, but now I really dont like the smell. I have always ask my husband to minimize putting on some roll-ons because it gives me a terrible migraine.

Being pregnant is not that easy. You have to sacrifice your habits before for the sake of the baby. My pregnancy is pretty normal. I have no crave for food, but I cannot control my eating habits now. I have gained 5 extra lbs for always eating. And my doctor said that I will minimize food that contains carbohydrates like rice, bread, crackers and more. But to tell you the truth I really love to eat nowadays.

I dont know how to control my eating, all I know is what I eat is good for my baby. I always eat healthy food like vegetables and fruits and juice for vitamin C. I drink milk every morning and right after I go to sleep. I take my vitamins every morning and lunch religiously.

Im not thinking about myself here cause I really want my baby to be healthy. I can always have my diet or go to the gym right after giving birth. My husband always say that I look prettier everyday. I know why he is saying that because he dont want me to get depressed or stressed out of the way I look.

What I noticed this days or this months is I just want to get to sleep, rest, watch TV, and play games on my husbands PC. This is not a normal life for me now but what Im doing now is for my baby. I want him to grow up healthy and groomed.

I dont want to be like other moms who neglected their baby and just think of themselves go shopping without knowing that the have a baby at home. As much as possible I want to raise my baby on my own. I dont want any babysitter in my house. I dont want anyone touching my baby except my own family.

My husband said that I can always be a stay home mom and just take good care of our children but what Im worried about are all the expenses in the house. My husband is a very good provider. And I can see him as a father, that is why GOD gave us this blessing cause HE knows that we will take good care of this baby like how we took good care of our love for each other.
I really cant believe that Im gonna be a mom.

Can I really take good care of this baby? I really dont like kids to tell you the truth. Kids for me are irritating, dirty and noisy. That is why Im really trying my best to be a good mom. Im the only child of the family, I didnt experienced life with siblings. My everyday life before was just me, myself and I. Funny but its true. I never experienced carrying a baby or taking good care of a baby.
