Life’s Lessons

Here’s our latest family picture…

I’m still lost for words. My mind is in vacation mode so I’ll be blogging about this photo next time.

We have a new baby – a Cabbage Patch Kids (CPK) newborn doll that I got from my sister. I fell in love with this little cutie the moment I saw her. Without even consulting Ace, I decided to get it (but it’s not that pricey anyway). Ace also find her so adorable too.

Today we went out to meet a friend who bought a bunch of My Little Pony from my online store. While prepping, I thought of bringing our Cutesy Patootie to the mall so I put her inside my bag…

and she fits there perfectly!

After we’re settled inside the taxi, I brought out Cutesy Patootie (we don’t have a name for her yet and Ace said why not we call her Cutesy Patootie? Okay. I am not good in giving names so I settled for Cutesy Patootie in the meantime.) and have a photo op. She’s seated between me and Ace. Isn’t she so cute?

Told Ace to carry her and I can’t help but laugh. Look at how he holds Cutesy!

She seems to be enjoying her first taxi ride.

And met friends since my HS years who happened to be the daughters of my late mother’s friend back during her college years.

She’s so behave while we are catching up with each other. Opps….sorry about the penmark! We badly need a new pair of shoes.  

After a short meet-up, we headed to another mall to buy cloth for my backdrop in taking photos of my “kalakals”. We killed time and roam around the mall then finally headed home. it was drizzling but we still opt to take the jeepney. Luckily, we got a front seat and I was so excited to bring out Cutesy from my bag and took a photo of her for her first jeepney ride.LOL. 

It was a great day with Ace and our Cutesy. She’ll be in tow every time we go out starting today.haha. Makes life really FUN! Stay tuned for Cutesy Patootie’s next adventure in the outside world.LOL

So we’re stuck at home for the long weekend. It’s a STAYCATION for all of us since we can’t have a quick trip for we are not observing Philippine Holidays at work. No choice but to work while everybody are having a great time at the beach or anywhere else.

Good thing we were at the beach Sunday before holy week so we don’t feel too deprived of not having a dip in the cool beach water and chilling around in one of our favorite resorts. We had a Team Building in one of the hidden paradise of Samal Island – Hayahay Beach Resort and the whole gang, including Baby Sendong was with us.

For the long weekend, it’s business as usual here at home – me, Ace, Donald, Carol and Che2x working on our workloads. We stocked food last Thursday because stores are closed on Friday. The convenience store near us is packed with shoppers that it seems everybody is panic buying for what they will be bringing wherever they are heading the following day and the next couple of days. For people (including those who are celebrating HOLY WEEK), gone are the quiet days to observe the Lenten Season from Thursday to Friday because they now found a great way to celebrate the Holy week – and that is going to the beach or someplace else and have a family affair to take advantage of the holiday! No doubt, beaches are packed with people during those days!

So it was a STAYCATION for us. Glad we’re not bored (because we’re loaded with work). But hopefully we can make up for our missed beach getaway soon when we’re not that loaded anymore.
