  • Equal Love

    Are you as excited and as anxious in anticipation of having a second child? Are you working toward the same level of preparation as for the first child? There is a big difference in preparation for having a second child, especially if your first child is only 2 years old with the same gender as the second one. For example, if you still have all the clothes and other baby things from the first baby, of course, it is impractical for you to buy it again. I remember, one friend posted about “The Birth Order of Children”, now I understand why it happens. But it doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be ab...
  • So It Starts!

    I just realized it’s been a week since I last updated this blog. I actually do have somethings to blog but just don’t have the time to sit on the computer. It’s all about my daughter who demands my time by playing with her, I have been entertaining her most of the day. When I am on the computer, she always grabbed my hand and say no, no, no…ha-ha-ha. She knows the word “no” now. Am sure, she will be saying this later, “Mama, stop using the computer, you play with me”. Between her, cooking, chores, errands & etc… it’s been hard to blog. She’s been saying many words no...

  • Child Development
    By Raquel on August 10, 2007 | 26 Comments26 Comments  Comments
    I have been a reading baby information website. It is about 75% of normal 15-month-olds should be saying at least five words consisting of “mama”, “dada” and at least 3 other nouns. As a stay-at-home-mom, your role is to take care of the family, especially the children. I cannot avoid worrying so much about my baby’s development. I am wondering why, when my daughter reached to 24 months old, she wasn’t talking yet. She could only say “mama.” As I observed, with my friend’s children in the Philippines, they started to talk as early as 15 to 18 months of age. Although, I ca...

    Second pregnancy, will it be the same as the first one? One thing I have noticed with my second pregnancy is that I am more in control. Everything is going well, and I have no worries because I have been through this before. One of the advantages of a second pregnancy is that many worries and concerns are no longer there. I know what to expect and what to be concerned about. This second baby seems to be moving a lot more. From big stuff to small stuff, there are not any serious issues, with the coming arrival of the second baby. Gaining weight is not a problem anymore. The most exiting part...
  • Prison Break Season 1
    By Raquel on August 1, 2007 | 16 Comments16 Comments  Comments
    Of all the TV series’ that I have watched, Prison Break is by far my favorite one. Prison Break Season 1 has a running time of about 16 hours with 22 Episodes. I finished watching season 1 & 2 of Prison Break about two months ago. This week I did nothing but watch the complete first season again with my hubby. I still enjoyed it. Hubby got hooked on it too. I think he can’t sleep for waiting for the release of Season 2 on September 4, 2007 at Blockbuster. ...
