Mommy and Baby on a Roll

If Ashton is growing bigger, mommy is getting busy-er. It's been awhile as usual since I last updated this but I just want to say - I love being a mom! It just opened up a whole new world for me and everyday, I live with a purpose.



I love how I rush home to cuddle Ashton, how I imagine the future with Ashton as a toddler like what his favorite food would be, favorite cartoon character, etc. If I can have one wish, I wish I can focus on my baby but of course, Ashton will also grow up like us and walk away someday from being under our wings.

Hence, the other life I live as a writer, blogger, and so much more I just won't right here :) I am enjoying so much right now, I thought - like every new mom, that I'll be in a drab forever singing lullabies and washing bottles. I am lucky I found the perfect mix and have the means to get assistance.

I always veer away from housechores eating so much of your time, I don't want a relationship with squeeky clean floors or shiny spotless glasses - I want a relationship with my family. I want to be able to enjoy the now and I wish more people, especially women do so. Yet, my online career (if I may call it that) is getting demanding as well so I am trying to pace it down a bit.

Lucky too I am able to work at times and attend to occasions with my baby in tow. I treat this lifestyle as the interest earned from the words I've carved in paper and cyberspace. Sometimes I write about business insurance quotes and even business insurance policy, but what I like most is writing about being a mom.

Sometimes, I am too happy I dread the time everything will end or change. Like what happens if cyberspace collapses? weird. But I have read several pieces on being in the now, doing my womanly role instead of trying to do a man's work, and being content with what has been given.

Just writing whatever flows into my brain right now. Later I still have to research on a group health plan and it is 1AM. I wish there is more hours than just 24.

One day at Salcedo

I pushed hard for us to have one Saturday morning at the Salcedo market. I haven't gone there and wanted to experience this with my sisters and Anya, of course my own mini family with the boys - Azrael and Ashton.



We got overwhelmed with all the food displayed in endless stalls. Cotton candies, taho, and yogurt were also on wheels circling the market.

Before buying anything else, I promised Anya that we'll have some popsicles.

My sister Joni reunited with Taho

Joni and Liza ended up getting barbecues, I got a spinach lasagna. They also tried some takoyakis which were too hot to eat, I never got a taste of it. We then headed to the park for lunch.



Lots of tables and dining area, but I brought Anya to the playground first.



Here's Anya with Kuya Bernard "because he can push higher" than me.


And then we enjoyed lunch, Joni and Anya were so hot because they came from the bottom of the earth. Both were turning red already so we headed to Shangri-la mall.

I wish everyday was like this, going places and burning money.
