^ Lia - that's exactly my point kaya gusto ko siya mag Gymbo or mag-Kindermusik! Kase dito sa haus, 4 lang kame!  ;D musta naman social skills niya di ba? most of the time, she's out lang on weekends eh. What age mo pinasok baby mo sa Gymbo sis?

Kapag less than 2 years old ang bata, parallel play pa ang alam niya, meaning, hindi pa siya makikipaglaro talaga sa ibang kids.  Ang mga kambal ko nga, kahit magkasama sila palagi, kanya-kanya sila ng laro at that age.  A few months ago ko lang napansin na naglalaro sila together or with other kids.  So, normal iyang hindi sasama sa Gymbo at first.  Pero okay lang yun, exposure pa rin yun.  Saka, ang ganda ng Gymbo, makulay na mundo yun so go ako diyan.  Kindermusik okay din daw kasi exposure to music enhances brain development.

Basta kung ipa-school at an early age, maganda sa play school lang.  Kapag preschool, mas gusto ko ang non-traditional type, Montessori or progressive.  Allergic ako sa homework and exams sa preschool, kahit nga din sa elementary ayaw ko sana pero most traditional schools may homework talaga starting prep.

Buti naman si baby kahit papano regularly may exposure sa ibang bata kasi i see my sister and her twins almost every week pero syempre, hindi pa sila talaga naglalaro together. Pero din naman namin siya ipag-gymboree later on.

Sa ngayon nga di pa siya nangingilala. Madaldal din siya at tumatawa pag kinakausap. Wala naman pa akong nakikitang odd except na di pa siya nakaka-roll over. She tries pero di pa siya successful. But i will research on developmental pedias and see when is a good time to bring her.

Kim, sana makabili ka! Till tonight pa ang selling period.

Lia, sige sa eb na lang yung cetaphil. Isipin ko how much pero for sure mura. :)

Gusto ko sa daang hari yung ayala southvale somera pero way over budget. Nag family reunion kami sa clubhouse nila 3 years ago yata. Ang ganda ganda!

For birthday party sa good shepherd (not all are orphans kasi so di ko matawag na orphanage), which do you think is most suitable - story-telling, balloon twisting, puppet show o magician?

^^^ nakakatawa di ba, parang totoong nagbabasa ng libro :) may nagregalo kay chloe ng Dora na book na may pinipindot pindot, naku, one time iniwan namin syang tulog sa kama while naglulunch kami ni yaya. aba bigla kong narinig yung sound ng book, gising na pala si bruhihi!

expert na sya umakyat-baba ng kama so confident na kaming hindi na sya mahuhulog hehe. kwento ni hubby one time nagising sya, may kumikiliti sa paa nya, si chloe pala nakababa na ng bed hehe.

ayaw nyo try mag mckinley hill? cute ng mga bahay dun :) di ko lang sure kung cute din presyo haha! speaking of, nag attend kami ng birthday party dun two weeks ago, nagulat lang ako, ang dumi ng playground nila :( mas malinis pa yung nasa Salcedo. pero maganda yung place huh.

balloon twisting, face paint AND magician.. :P
check mo na lang din kung ano ang age group ng mga bata don para ma gauge mo kung ok ang magician..
wag pala mawawala ang parlor games.. mas exciting yun sa kids eh..some kids kasi ayaw ng magician kasi natatakot

Lisa, check mo muna ang age range ng mga kids na a-attend ng party.  Generally, young kids (2 years old and below) do not appreciate magic tricks yet, unless may animals like birds or rabbit.  Kaya ang kids ko gustong-gusto si Jojo Bandana, sayang nag-migrate na sila ni Beverly.  Same with balloon twisting.   Okay si Jiggles pero mas sulit siya kung mas maraming older kids kasi pinapa-guess niya yung ginagawa niya while doing it.  Hindi naman yun mahuhulaan agad ng younger kids.  So dapat may older kids. Yung puppet show, medyo boring daw kung yun lang ang entertainment.  Nag-puppet show kami noong first birthday ng twins pero may magician din.  Bale, may puppet show during breaks from the games and magic show.  Yung story-telling, mabenta sa toddlers and preschoolers based on my experience noong second birthday ng kids ko. :)  Okay ang story-telling if 30 kids or less ang guests, otherwise, mahihirapan sila makinig.  Si Melody, sobrang galing.  I recommended her nga sa school ng kids ko during a fellowship and humanga sa kanya ang teachers.

Ang mga anak ko nasanay na sa magic show.  One time, may nag-party na classmate sa house lang.  Walang program.  Sabi ng yaya, gusto na raw umuwi ni Marty:  "Ate, I don't like this party.  There is no magic show."  Nakupo. :-[

Kahit anong party, gusto ng mga bata may maiuuwi sila na prizes or loot bags, kahit simple lang basta may bitbit sila. :)

marose, ako din favorite ko si jojo bandana.  Add mo pa dyan na goodlooking silang mag asawa :)  yung iba kaseng magician, kakatakot ang itsura hahahaha :) mura pa rate ni jojo, happy ako kase sila binigay sa kin sa 1st baby ng baby ko.  My 1st choice that time is flooch.  Si jiggles di ko masyado feel, di sya fluent tapos di ganun kahusay mag facilitate ng games, ang gulo ng mga bata.

Nasanay siguro kids mo sa mga bdays na may magic show.  Kakatuwa, alam na yung boring :)

Maski mga nanay, natutuwa din kapag may nakukuha anak nila na loot bags.  May na-attendan akong bday dati, walang loot bags, ako yung nalungkot para sa baby ko kahit alam kong di pa nya ma-appreciate laman nun  :P

Luz, good-looking couple nga sina Jojo Bandana and Bev.   ;)  Ay, pareho tayo ng reaction sa magicians na nakakatakot ang itsura!  Si Master Dem never kong kukunin kasi kakatakot itsura pa lang. :(

Si Flooch dapat ang host last year kaso nag-back out siya one month before the party at may family reunion daw siya.  Apologetic naman siya pero na-stress ako!  Mabuti nakahanap pa si Apple ng available host/magician, sina Jojo and Bev nga.  Nakahabol pa ang party namin before they left for Canada. ;D

Si Jiggles dapat kukunin ko this year.  But, napaisip ako.Hindi kasi siya matandaan ng mga anak ko. :(  Saka, hindi nabigyan ng kahit isang balloon creation ang kids ko during a party na siya ang host.  Haha.  Stage mommy talaga ako.

Luz, naki-attend lang kami ng party pero ang mga kids ko, nasa harap kasi iyan palagi kapag may program or show.  Tapos, wala silang nakuhang balloon.  sobrang hilig pa naman nila sa balloons.

Ayokong mag-comment sa party thread kapag may nanghihingi ng feedback about Master Dem kasi taga-GT nag-party dati na siya ang host.  Ang ganda ng party, pero distracted ako kasi natatakot nga ako kay Master Dem.  I could not get over his long hair kaya hindi ako maka-focus sa magic niya.  Siguro magaling siya pero hindi ko talaga nabigyan ng attention.

CVJ ang nasa New Marikina Subdivision, sa may Eagle Street yata yun.  Malapit na nga sa bayan.  May sarili silang venue pero puwede rin magpa-cater offsite.

hahahahaha! lakas ng tawa ko marose, may na-experience na din ako na ganyan, cant remember lang the name of the magician.  Pero i swear,  hindi entertaining yung dating nya kase nagpapatawa sya pero parang nakakatakot pa din  :-X

balloons - malaking factor talaga sa ikakaganda ng party place.  Mas madami mas maganda :) pero kung balloon show pa ulit tapos dami nang balloons, bka over na..imo ko lang naman.

tama, yun nga yung CVJ, may sarili silang reception sa malapit sa bayan.  Masarap nga yung food, cordon bleue yung nagustuhan ko (di ako mahilig dito) pero okay yung sa kanila.  Mura din sila kase for 100pax, 40T+ lang inabot ng brother in law ko - package na yun, kasama flowers, giveaways.

may gumagamit ba dito ng Lactacyd toddler tabs for your babies?

Zoe started her first solid meal last weekend :) Yung first nya was on Sunday, we gave her mashed carrots and she loved it! Nakakatuwa nga kase siguro matagal na nya kame nao-observe when we eat kase whenever she sees the spoon na papunta sa mouth nya, sinasalubong nya kagad with open mouth and hinde na kelangan ilagay sa lips nya muna so she can open her mouth. Ang galing!

The next day we fed her cerelac. I know I'm supposed to try out 1 type of food for 3 days pero na-excite kase ko magbigay ng cerelac hehe.

On pangingilala naman, Zoe would go to anyone dito sa house namin. But when there are visitors greeting her, she doesnt smile kagad and she would give them intense stares.  Minsan head to foot pa nakakaloka hehe. One weekend we went to my brother in law's house and his wife took her to play with her. She gave her a long look tapos biglang umiyak na parang aping-api sya.

For the past couple of weeks ang pattern ni Zoe is she would wake up at around 6 or 7am tapos super ingay nya. As in tili, mumble, tili, and more tili and umiikot sya sa bed. So most of the time even if we're really sleepy pa, nagigising na lang talaga kame cus dadaanin nya kame sa gummy smile nya with matching tilting of the head to the side, marunong na magpa-cute!

On social skills dev't - kaya din ganado kong umattend ng bday parties (c/o SG mommies invitations) with Bianca kahit sya lagi pinaka-baby kasi nga para ma-expose sa maraming bata and mukhang nagp-payoff naman kasi usisera/etchusera tong anak ko hehe

On first solid food - mga two weeks pa lang ding nag-solids si B, earth's best lang sya (na hindi ganun ka-available dito) so far gusto nya lahat ng na-try namin-- cereal, apple, banana once a day feeding lang muna tapos kanina ginawa ng twice :) so far so good sana nga tuloy tuloy na hindi sya picky eater

Nabalitaan ko nga ding nagkaron ng earthquake dyan sa manila/batangas/mindoro kaya napatawag din agad ako kay papa & bro tapos hindi naman daw nila naramdaman, mahina lang naman daw pero syempre after ng recent natural disasters na nangyari, scary din basta ingat na lang lagi & pray

sis Tin, enfapro milk ni K db(?) pansin ko kasi every other week, tumataas price nyan dito  :o curios to know, dyan din ba?

I called pala 3 Shakey's branches over the weekend and dumaan kame sa Shakey's Katipunan. Their function room is quite big (although I havent seen pa yung sa El Pueblo and E Rodriguez which are the branches that I'm also considering) but they're not open to any outside suppliers except for their own. Yung nasa flier nila mejo mas mahal ang rates compared sa suppliers na nakita ko online. I called up the El Pueblo and E rod banches and sila yung open to outside suppliers but may conditions lang regarding time (for venue set up) and corkage.
