And the Winner Is...

Me!

Well, it was sweet of hubs to tell me before they made the announcements that no matter what happens, I will always be a winner for him. Ahehe.

Anyway, last Friday, went with hubs to the Awarding by Nuffnang and Goldilocks for their You're The 1 Goldilocks Contest. We had fun decorating our free cakes, I was in ecstasies with all the free canvas bags (we got 6 in all, hehe, without even asking for more) with past issue mags (at least they're 2009 issues), and of course, it was great just spending time with hubs.

And okay, I won consolation prize! :)

During the drive to Fully Booked, a bird pooped on the windshield and I kidded hubs' that we'd win something. I think a bigger bird should have pooped because we missed all the real prizes (laptops). But then again, a P2,500 gift certificate from Goldilocks isn't bad at all. I won it for my entry I wrote for the contest.

After the event, we shopped for books (I got 3) and had Starbucks frappes. Then we watched NCIS episodes.

Saturday, hubs and Yakee went with me to the Milk Code Forum. I am such a loved and supported SAHM! :)

Feel Like Digiscrapping



Our son is growing fast indeed. He even watched Cory's funeral cortege pass by near where we live, amazed at the doves that were released and intimating to his father that he wants to ride a helicopter.

Ask him if he wants a baby sister or brother, he'd say, "Sister." :)

Plurky, Lazy Afternoon

One of the Plurk moms shared that his 3-year old managed to stuff his nose with the fuzzy covering of a tennis ball. She said she managed to get most out except something which she feared her son had ended up swallowing after the little boy sneezed, and the remaining fuzz was gone.

I tried comforting the Mom by saying that it could have been worse. I once read a blogger mom relating the story of her son stuffing his nose with a battery (not the double A kind either) which warranted a trip to the ER.

Another Plurk Mom shared that her 8 year old nephew swallowed a marble after being told by a friend that the marble will make him invisible. Hehe.

Told these stories to Pappie and he basically said, "so you're saying we'd get more stressed in future?" :)

And then, while our son was playing, hubby told me, "Oh No Mommy, he has a tennis ball!" (actually, he's been playing with two for a while now). Before I could even laugh, our son put the ball in a cup and said, "Ice cream!" and proceeded to lick it. Ah well.

Boys. I wonder how they survive childhood.
