Yay! The Christmas Album is at least 50% done!! I cannot believe how easy it is to do this! I have been scrapping for the last two days and was able to finish the majority. Lessons learned: 1) Plan and be organized. 2) Journal in your notebook (or BLOG!) — there are entries which are blog entries. 3) Take PICTURES!
Im trying to finish this before January 15 to take advantage of the 20% off from Shutterfly. I scored a great deal off Ebay ($7.75 for 5 Shutterfly Calendars!) and plan to make a calendar for my in-laws and their families too

Matthew’s 7th Birthday.
Four Days Before Christmas.
I cleaned the house as much as I can and the husband miraculously wrapped the gifts (Im tamad). Now, wala na talaga akong gagawin ever. Im kicking back to enjoy and indulge in the season.

I have been having a blast reconnecting to what I loved first - writing by hand. I have discovered that words flow naturally, and that they are more real. I wish I can have my handwriting back the way it used to look though.
12.20 My favorite day of the year (Out of the Ordinary no events type of days!)

This was a Saturday and I came home late as I needed to finish work. I came home with the kids both on the computers. One was watching Barney on YouTube and the other one was playing some war game.
Boo Boo on her knee. A First. She went to my aunt’s place which had a big yard, a swimming pool and a basketball court and spent ages there. Feeling nasa Amadeo uli. She scraped her knee and didnt even cry said the yaya. But guess what she did upon seeing us? Show us her ouchie and make pa-sad face. Ang arte.

I think a lot of you got interested with the Photo-a-Day project This wasn’t really my idea - you can see it in scrapping galleries everywhere. Jessica Sprague conceptualized the idea and even gave away a nice, useable template.
I hope you join along — it so nice to really document everything everyday promise :). Even if it is really ordinary stuff, kahit na paulit ulit.
You can find awesome inspiration in these galleries: Steph’s and Mollie’s.
And if you are looking for some REAL inspiration for next year, look at Anna’s awesome weekly year in reviews. Seriously awesome stuff. She is doing a Photo a Day for December too. Look here.
And can I give you another super nice project?
Look at this super nice layout (she has versions for all kids - here, here and here). Nice no? This will look great with the kids. Knowing me, I have hundreds of their pictures. (Even kaming dalawa ni Edil). She used the template here.

It feels good to scrap
ETA: Now that I think of it, I think I’ll redo this later, the number should be on the other side.
Edil, I think, has gotten something into him. He actually likes coffee (or collecting the stickers - go figure). I had another round - this time Peppermint Hot Mocha (coffee na ba eto Mare?! HA! :P) while reviewing Matthew for his test tomorrow (today). I captured his face while he was trying to spell “perpendicular” :). Edil tended to Martha who saw my red cup and thought (I think) it was something nice. She absolutely threw a fit until I let her drink the cup, of course with the opening on the other end. And she actually “sipped” more than once. Feel na feel nya na umiinom talaga sya. Pinainom pa ako mga two times. LOL

Traffic at Roxas was sooooo bad I wasnt able to attend. MOA would have been nice for a dinner capped with coffee with the husband. We promise to sneak in a dinner at CliffHouse when we go up to Cavite on the 21st for the holidays.

When it rains, it pours. Matthew has the sickies. His ear infection came back, worse, this time I think it has progressed. Hearing loss is noted. The Mommy feels the guilt. I could have pretended this. If only I was more vigilant. I am a nurse, for crying out loud. All systems go for prevention. Take note, hearing loss is irreversible.

Things get better. Today I am reminded that things can be icky and not really NICE, but as long as what is important remains solid and true and grounded, one can surpass everything. Take note of Martha’s cute face. Her signature smile for the week.

I promise that next year I will make my SLR’s price worth it. If I knew how to use my camera well, this would have been a nice shot - scratch that - an awesome shot. Save for the binkie of course. They love hanging out in the sofa to watch the lights on the tree, which as of the moment I write this, I want to switch to white.
