The Magic Words

So Barney sings "'Please' and 'Thank You,' they're the magic words!" Tallulah couldn't care less, but Sofia knows the song by heart and whenever she fails to say 'please' or 'thank you,' I just tell her that she forgot to say the magic word/s and voila! Hmmn, so my investment in buying all those DVDs has paid off. :)

But let me share with you my conversation with Tallulah one night:

Tallulah: Mommy, I want milk!

Maan: Baby, you forgot to say the magic word...

Tallulah: Uhm..Mishka, Mushka, Mickey Mouse!

Maan: ?!

Apparently, Tallulah's a 'Mickey Mouse Clubhouse' fan! I think Barney and Mickey should do something about this! :D

Rockstar!

Tallulah turned 3 yesterday and we celebrated it the 'rock star' way! I bought her a cheap toy guitar and I let her do her thing! Here are some of her photos:

Rock on! :P

Catching up...

I know I haven’t written in ages! December 2008 had been so busy but fun altogether! I juggled work, birthdays here and there, a group photo exhibit, Christmas parties at home and in the office, career-an ng presentation..haha!, last minute Christmas shopping (and wrapping!), reading the Twilight series, and trying to stay fit! My effort in trying to stay fit though had all been wasted due to all the bingeing I did during the holidays! I ate almost every not-so-healthy food - crispy pata, halayang ube, walang katapusang fruit salad, chocolates, chicharon, isaw, kilawin..the list is endless! :D

We spent the holidays mostly at home. We thought it was time to have some quality family time. We brought the kids to Dinos Alive at SM Mall of Asia one lazy Sunday, and we had a simple New Year's Eve celebration. There. And i slept for as long as I wanted! The last few days at work prior to the holidays had been pretty exhausting, so the 11-day vacation was just heaven-sent!

My 2008, to sum it up, had been a blessed year! May 2009 be another blessed and fruitful year for all of us! Happy New Year everyone! :)
