Her Lalaloopsy Craze Has Began

Look what are her new favorite toys:

Martha has began her addiction to Lalaloopsy dolls. And I am afraid that her mom is more addicted than her. She has gotten two big dolls and one little sister last Christmas – Cinder Slippers from her own Christmas money, Cocoa Toffee Cuddles from Santa and Squirt Little Top from her godfather.

And did you know why Santa gave her Cocoa Toffee Cuddles? Because Cocoa Toffee Cuddles loves to make notes and give them to people (so totally like her). This made her smile, “Santa knows me!”, she exclaims.

Now she has this list of to-buy:

Martha’s wishlist: Ivory Ice Crystals, Jewel Sparkles, Pix E. Flutters
Sahara Mirage, Blossom Flowerpot, Tippy Tumblelina

For her graduation, if she is in the Top 10 and for her birthday, she said. HA!

Martha’s Hair Accessories of Choice: Dainty Ashley

Leave a reply

Martha is such a girly-girl. Who knew that she would be like this when I thought she was such a tomboy when she was 3? Right now, she wants to grow her hair long like Barbie and have bangs like Mika in the ABS CBN teleserye Princess & I. And she wants to use different hair accessories to style her hair.

Just look at her stash of hair accessories (and this picture isn’t even updated now):

We order 90% of hair accessories through Dainty Ashley. It is a home-based business run solely by a friend who has two kids, one of whom is daughter named Ashley. Not because she is a friend, but I personally vouch for her professionalism when dealing with transactions and the craftiness of her creations. Most of her creations are sourced overseas, and sell cheaply than those at Etsy.com.

Here are some modeling pictures of just a few of Marts’ hair pieces:

frustrated with our internet connection situation. It seems we have found a solution but we need to wait for them to get a modem and then they can install. Patience is a virtue.

worried about some spots I’ve been seeing in my youngest’s back. It’s along her spine so we need to have it checked.

loving how the husband is being all Handy Manny around the house.

proud of the two kids – they have good grades from the previous grading period. Martha went from Top 9 to Top 4! WTG Marts!

feeling a little sluggish and tired. I know it’s because of all the things I’ve been eating. I have not been eating dinner for two days now and plan to exercise soon. Maybe the 1st of December will be perfect – it’s just so hard to manage time when I need to work outside from home (Believe me when I get home I feel so tired already!)

hoping to get paid soon. Story of my (working) life.

excited and anxious about Christmas. Is it really going to be December in two days? I am not ready yet!

Love Letters.

2 Replies

I come home from "work" everyday to see a love letter from Marts for a week now. It ranges from sumbong, lambing and tsismis. One letter is a 5point list enumerating what she has done throughout the day. No. 5 said "Mommy sunduin ka na namen ni Daddy. Wai

I have been finding notes in my computer whenever I get home from my parents’ place everyday for the past week and a half already. Marts’ letters range from love letters telling me she misses me to list letters telling me how her day went without me. From giving her dog Scamp a bath to helping fix her Dad’s tools and car accessories like a motorcycle cover he doesn’t use, she will list it.

One of her letters had the number 1 to 5. And the last one said, “5. Mommy sunduin ka namen ni Daddy sa shrine. Wait ka lang.”

Ain’t she the sweetest?

Music & Magic: Rockstar Themed Party

Leave a reply

We attended our last birthday party for this year – Bela’s 7th birthday party entitled Music and Magic!

It truly was, literally, a labor of love of the parents for their daughter as most of the details of the party were handmade by Bela’s parents and family relatives. It looked fantastic! We were amazed at how they were able to do all of it at such a short time. My friend was really stressed about it but eventually said all the stress was worth it.

Marts was able to get a cute bow from Dainty Ashley and had her hair done in the kiddie salon complete with rolling makeup case with lights. The magic show was a blast for the kids and the Jive concert had the kids dancing. Marts danced to a Call Me Maybe, Starships and Oppa Gangnam (I have everything on video I just can’t upload it yet).

Here’s to more events next year
