Mommy Moments: Outdoor Fun

Mommy Moments

This week's theme is Outdoor Fun. I've never brought my kids to a park yet. Our park here in the province is not conducive for kids. These are photos from the backyard. For their outdoor fun, they love walking around the garden, watering the plants and trying to feed the dogs.

They love picking calamansi (little citrus fruits) and picking flowers, we have sampaguita and roses.


Do you see the gazebo in this picture? That is where they rest when they get tired from being chased by the water hose.

Maybe, if we have enough money, we can add a little pool for the kids to have fun outdoors.

My Lists

Each week, though I hope I can do this daily, I'll try to create a list of interesting things that I want to share. Like links to my new discoveries, what blogs I read, books, movies I enjoyed (if I see any). There are a lot of things that interests me, so consider it a weekly roundup of some sort.

First up this week, is my list of Obsessions.

1.I'm addicted to blog templates that are colorful and fun and most of all, FREE!
   My blog is currently wearing  a template from Smitten Blog Designs with a few tweaks at the header.

There are tons more out there who offer free and colorful templates. Will be posting about them next time.

2. Vampires. I'm very much obsessed with Vampires. I went into Anne Rice phase. I just loved the Brat Prince - Lestat, loved Louis' humanity and my favorite book was Queen of the Damned. I like the character of Akasha. Even had my own coven. Then I discovered Stephenie Meyer, and read the Twilight Saga in a few nights, sleeping really late, which made my kids grumpy at me. I love Edward Cullen's character in the book but for the movies, I like Jackson Rathbone even more than Robert Pattinson. I sort of see Robert as Cedric Diggory from Harry Potter, though I think they're all hot. Then there's Charlaine Harris' who wrote the Sookie Stackhouse series which is the basis for HBO's True Blood. It doesn't hurt that the TV series stars Anna Paquin, more famously known as Rogue in the XMEN movies. If you want brutal and real vampires, True Blood is for you.

3. Learning. When I obsess about something, I tend to try to learn more about whatever it is. I go thru phases in my life, some phases longer than others. Now, I'm at the stage of learning about making handmade crafts and scrapbooking which is practically related to each other. I'm also into digital scrapbooking and I love those who make digital things and give them away for free.

4. As I've often mentioned in this short, yet long list, I love Freebies and Giveaways. So expect my entries to these exciting giveaways and I hope you join it with me. Anything free is something I appreciate, specially now that times are hard.

5. Tags/Memes/Surveys - I get to discover more about myself and about the writers I love reading about. I gain new insights about me and about you. I'm still finalizing the details of my tag. You can see the tag button on my leftside corner. Hopefully, I get to finish it soon.

Thanks for reading.

Mommy Moments: With Friends

I promised myself that I'll never miss a Mommy Moments ever again. To my detriment, the topic is something which is, not really something I can participate into. My kids don't have friends they can call theirs. There's an acquaintance who drops by when there's an occasion but that's about it. Their friends as of the moment are their cousins.

 

Maybe things will change since my eldest is now going to go to a toddler school. Where I hope she'll learn to become a little friendly and maybe I can start cleaning the closet while she's in school and I hope that Paul will be napping while she's in school. Maegan usually starts out shy, but she likes her future Teacher so I hope she answers when she's asked.
