Catching Up

I know there are lots of things to catch up but hopefully I could get back to blogging again and hopefully scrapping also. I’ve been seeing a lot of my friends have their photobooks done and I hope I could also make at least one for my little boy. I really, really want to make but I don’t know why I cannot start hahaha… Anyway, I know that will come meanwhile let me share this nice to have gadget that I saw few hours ago… the blackberry Playbook.

Honestly I didn’t know that blackberry comes with this kind of tablet. I was actually thinking few weeks ago to purchase an iPad but I don’t have budget yet. Good thing I saw this and look cheaper than the iPad. Nice find.

If you want to see the features and other specs, you can check it at this link.

If not soon, I hope on Christmas my Santa will get this for me. Hehehe… and praying that before the year ends, my son’s 7th birthday will have a photobook, haha..

It will be holiday once again…. soon!

Really time flies sooo fast… I didn’t even notice how long I wasn’t able to update this blog. Anyway, it’s almost half of July and few more months it’s holiday season once again. I wouldn’t think of this if not for a friend who informed me about holiday bazaar that she’s planning on the holiday. Well, Christmas will come too soon especially if we’re busy at work. Now I wonder if I can prepare personalized Christmas Cards this year considering I’m back working in the office. And because of that I downloaded some digital templates, which I can tweak and later use as format so it will be fast and easy for me. Actually I’m thinking to do it ahead of time because I know I will not be able to handle it once I’m swamped with work during the later part of this year…

Choosing Your Kid’s First Aquarium

If you are fond of aquariums chances are your children will inherit the same trait especially if they are constantly exposed to it. So what will you do if your child asks you about getting his own aquarium? There is actually no age limit when it comes to having one. It is actually better to start young just make sure to take the necessary safety precautions such as placing the tank in a safe and secure place.

For families that have young kids, it will be better to place it on a high space where they can admire its beauty but far from any accidents. Choose one that is right for your child’s age. It is better to start with a small one until they get familiar with. Let them be involved with care and maintenance. Teach them how to clean the tank and feed the fish. Engage them in such activities that way they’ll learn responsibilities at a young age.

Bring them to the fish store and let them choose from the wide selection. As they grow older they will become more involved and it could later on turn into a hobby. Make them a part of any decision making regarding the aquarium. You’ll be surprised how this small house décor can actually teach your kids a lot about life.

one of my dreams…

I have watched a video clips wherein a homeowner create a beautiful landscape using their own toro lawn mowers, a do-it-yourself creation that makes a nice landscape outdoors. That’s actually one of my dreams once we have our own house, to have a beautiful landscape with pretty plants and flowers surrounding it and put a sprinkler system outside… …. Ok, imagine this photo…

Big backyard and nice surroundings… love a place like this.

Pregnancy kits

Are you in search of pregnancy kit? If yes then this post is helpful to you.
During my sorting with older photos, I saw some of my pregnancy shots taken 8 yrs ago, LOL! I wonder where are those maternity clothes I’m wearing.. …. Anyway, I was thinking to compile them and do a layout later on. And because of that in mind, I went ahead and check some pregnancy kit. Here are some that I found pretty:

I know I won’t be doing the layout yet but I’m saving the link if ever I need them already. Also some expecting moms might be looking for this kind of theme, so I hope this will help you record your monthly update. Images were linked so you can check them.

home workspace

If you’re like me who works at home, you know how important to have a comfortable workspace. Either you take a small corner inside your room or a space at the living room. As for me one of the things to consider is to have an ambient light as possible hence I would prefer to have my workspace at the corner with window. A close sample that I have seen is the photo below…

Either a window blinds or a plantation shutters can be used for the windows. At the photo above I like the idea of the L shape table making it fit at the corner of the room.

I’m looking forward to have this kind of setup at our house soon.
