I’ve got all the tags in drafts. But Im going to be scarce this weekend as Im heading off to Manila.
If you follow me on Twitter, you’d know this
Chowking, here I come 
(Me Razon’s pala sa Banawe, dun na lang!)
A cousin has been obsessed with everything about the medieval era. He even got a suit of armor to be able to add something to his everygrowing collection. It sounds really weird but believe or not, people are even offering to buy his collection and it is very very expensive!
For years, I have relied on my payroll savings account to keep everything that I “save”. Five years worth of salaries, bonuses and even PayPal money went directly there. Now that I am no longer working, I’m thinking about giving it up, converting it into a personal savings account or just closing it and open a new one. The only thing that is keeping me from getting a new one is the online banking feature I have from my current bank. I really rely online to get my bills paid on time – since I really hate lining up at the bank. However, I also want a passbook to keep track of everything, which my bank doesnt support. Savings Accounts at WaMu are flexible and Im keen on opening a new one for myself. For example, they have online banking savings account and a statement savings account, which I can all apply online. Their online banking feature has a safety guarantee feature. I can save and download up to 13 months of my transaction history and even 7 years worth of statements!!! Their online bill payment service comes free as well. I want to be able to manage our finances and still be able to save. I think I would be inquiring about WaMu services in our area soon.
Hay.
We have barely completed our house move and our furnitures get destroyed one by one. First, it was Martha swiping the TV. Now, it is Matthew jumping over our coffeetable – with glass.
I actually didnt see it because Martha and I were in the room, trying to get to her to sleep. I hear a loud bang and thought the maids broke plates or something.
I got out to see the coffeetable glass broken. (Naku parang umakyat lahat ng dugo sa ulo ko!!).
Matthew was sitting on the sofa, and he was really scared – of me making talak. He didnt see he was bleeding.
I was so angry to even react. When he saw he was bleeding quite profusely na, he started to cry. I was so mad, I told him, “Bahala ka sa buhay mo, mamamatay ka na naman” (I blogged about an incident before).
Proof that my son cant be a doctor. He wailed, “Mommy ayaw kong mamatay” He was saying this the whole time I was washing his wound.
So I was still making dakdak, saying, “Hindi ka si Superman anong akala mo, dak dak dak dak dak dak” LOL
I panicked when the bleeding wont stop so I called my Dad. Dad to the rescue, problem solved (I thought he’d need stitches).
Now, no computer for a week, no games for a week. And he needs to nap in the afternoons for a week to recover all the lost blood *wink wink* (Im a sucker for exaggerating stuff to him.LOL)
So here is the coffetable ruined,
A family friend, upon hearing the news, laughed. “Ano ba yan Aggie, isa isang sinisira gamit nyo, baka kelangan daw bago!”
The destroyers.
Ill be naming my kids like that from this day forward (parang kami yan ng bata.) LOL
I decided to do a Martha post since she turned two this month
When you make her tell her her age, she says two but puts up her hand like this:

1. I think I havent blogged about this yet – but I twitted it – Martha has been chot-chot free since May 1 (I threw it on my first day staying at home). I decided it was make or break, and I knew I was the only one who had the strength to say no to her (Her Dad kept on telling me that I wouldnt make it). But fortunately, we did. I did a meanie – I put chili sauce on her chot chot . She cried, but afterwards wouldnt even touch it or go near it. She tried to tell me to “wash” it, because she saw it was “dirty” but Id just wash it kunwari and then give it back to her.
Oh, the torture. We had trouble with lulling her to sleep for a week, naptime, bedtime, everything was ruined. She cant find an alternative way to calm her so she kept crying, was cranky, all the things you can think of.
But we survived.
RIP Chot Chot.
2. Panties.
We have been wearing panties for almost all day since May too The first week I stayed home, I told her to tell me when she wants to make wiwi, and we were successful at the first try! (We have a small toilet bowl so I think she wasnt threatened). We were doing pretty good for the past two weeks but slacked the past couple of days (I got really busy and tamad).
She doesnt want to wear those white panties too. She wants those that are “pretty.”
3. I have already mentioned that her creative imagination is flying. She now plays with Elmo constantly. He even NEEDS to come with us everytime we go out. We left him at the Shrine when we went there two days ago and she bawled her eyes out. Needless to say, I had a hard time making her do the things that I want her to do (like lay down while I put her pampers on!!!!).
For the first time in – what – three months (LOL), I managed to update my blogS with real entries
I actually have a challenge to myself and that is to blog everyday, starting today
Aggie Shoots. Aggie Aggie Scraps – layout share
Winding Creek Circle – life in the ‘burbs (Im going to do a day to day entry starting tomorrow there – Id like to get an album done for us for a month).
Stop and read all about it 
Cookie “standing” in the corner, an imaginative play done by my two-year old daughter.

Here is mine. Id like to state FIRST na I feel so betrayed with the pictures – ako pa man din ang nag-aalaga at kumakalinga sa kanila. Bwahahaha
Here is Edil:
And then here is Mato at four months:
Uunahan ko na kayo – Matthew got everything from his Dad except his eyes (those are mine). Balibaliktarin nyo man ang mundo, akin yang mga matang yan.
Martha got her eyes from her Dad, most of what is left is kinda mine
Martha at 6 weeks:
To prove my point, look at her when she was a newborn (Im so thankful I was able to salvage pictures from Photobucket!!!)
Where is my baby picture? Ive got a ton posted here. Go look then you decide Of course, Im heavier now so you might not be able to see any resemblance (I need Orovo detox)!
Tagging everyone who wants to join
Thanks Issa!
This is me-today.
1. Woke up too early. Slept too late.
2. Something has been bothering me as of late, but I cant really decide if it’s my guts speaking.
3. Looking forward to tonight.
4. Eagerly waiting for Paypal money to come in. We need groceries.
5. Looking forward to around 4 hours of me time as the princess just slept at 5AM. Gaaaah.
6. Badly needs a haircut and a boost of hair color – my white hairs are standing out.
Tell me how are you today!
