Pyjama Party at the Library

     Two things I love: pyjamas and the Library. This is why when I found out that they're having a pyjama party at the library I made sure that I would be able to bring my kids.

   

      Yohann is a bit young for the age group but he actually behaved and enjoyed every activity like the older kids. I guess having a big brother to look up to, made a difference.

     

 

He's actually too little to participate but he insist in doing so.














      It was helpful having a little brother for Tyrese too. When he was younger, he was so shy to even participate but now that Yohann is with him he was actually less shy. 

      One of their favorite activity was the singing part. While Tyrese loves to hold the parachute, Yohann loves being underneath it. 

  

     One hour of pyjama time seems so short. But they had enough time to play around the library and borrow some books. I hope I would always be able to bring them to Pyjama Time.

Baby Talk

I feel bad that I wasn't diligent on tracking my kids's milestone. I was busy with a lot of stuff but everyday I still find it amazing to discover what they can do.

Yohann is 18 months old today.

1 and a half year old.

6 months to go and he's two.

Lately, we noticed him to talk more in signs and speak in syllables too. Although not clearly you could quite get what he meant.

He's favorite words so far are:

Tyty - his brothers name.
star
crackers
bump - for fist bump.
more
arms up

It may not be ideal but I give credit to the videos he watch. He loves baby signing time and your baby can read. It entertains him while im busy with other things and at the same time educates him too.

Almost Spring!

     Finally, we were able to come out and play! But we didnt stay long because it still feel cold at 5°c. We were out for a good five to ten minutes but my kids were happy and let them know that pretty soon we can bring out their bikes for a ride. I could have brought it out but the snow are still melting and their OC dad may probably get mad if I put wet wheels back on the storage. 

   















It's a bit sad that we are on a place that almost half a year is winter but Im trying my best not to be negative about it. I realize that there are other "waiting for spring"activities we can do indoors. I was able to do a lot of craft time activity for my kids which gave us a chance to spend quality time rather than wasting it with TV/ipad. Although, TV and ipad is still the "to-go" activity that my eldest enjoy the most. Some of the activities we did were the following:

1. craft time:

2. kitchen time:

3. Library time: 

4. wasting time:

     Hopefully, next winter I could come up with more fun "waiting for spring" activities but right now we're so ready for you SPRING!!!

Pregnant AGAIN!!

It wasnt planned but it was still a beautiful surprise. I was delayed with my period for at least a month already but I kept on pushing the thought of pregnancy away from my mind. I thought I was just so stress over a lot of things hence the irregularity with my period.

One day, while we were out we the kids, we bought a pregnancy stick from a dollar store which gives us a positive result. But I was still on denial. I want more "scientific" confirmation such as blood test and ultrasound. I went to see my family doctor for the test, and YES we're actually pregnant.

Everybody thinks that we're keeping it as a secret yet almost everyone knows that Im pregnant. I wasnt posting any status update on my Facebook cause I want an ultrasound picture to come with it if I do so. So after having my ultrasound, I did finally upload something on my FB. 

We're pregnant for almost 21 weeks now!

Few days after the ultrasound, my coworkers planned for a gender reveal party. and just as I hope so, we're having another BOY. Im excited to be an MOB -Mother of BOYS.

 

off days are meant to be spent like this

Well, I guess I dont have to wait for thursday to write what Im thankful for.

3. Today, Im happy not to be working because I get to spend quality time with the boys. We were able to do craft time and bake time. I havent bought any real art materials yet so i just came up with whatever is available at home.

     This cookie dough was a gift from christmas and Im starting to love it. I dont have time to make a dough but this is a quick fix for a quick activity for toddlers like mine. He just need to scoop it from the bucket, fill his cookie sheets and pop it in the oven.

Then tada, little brother gets to enjoy it. 

thankful thursday

i have the tendency to be pessimistic. To keep myself from seeing the negativity I would try to write the things that I am thankful for. The struggles in life are real, but I need to "count my blessings, and name them one by one"

I am thankful for:

1. my boys: 

         I wasn't able to do a lot of things which I used to do. I hardly have quiet time for myself. But having them makes me the happiest person. I know I can't keep them from growing up, so I'm enjoying them while their little and while I am the most important person in their world.

2. my big boy:

     i wouldnt have my little boys without my man, for him i would always be grateful. it wasnt always an easy ride. and sometimes i feel like we always fight but im grateful for a man who knows how to ask say sorry first in every argument. 

yohann is one

Im so glad that most of my friends were off on the day that we decided to celebrate Yohann's first birthday. Although we haven't really plan much, his birthday was a success. Of course with the help of all our wonderful friends. There presence is even more than enough than the presents our little boy got.
