Grace, van, Fan din ako ng vampire diaries but i hardly have tme to watch. Last na napanood ko nung october pa. :( ang dami ko nang na-miss. Nag-sync ng app yun husband ko sa ipad so i can watch my tv shows via live streaming connected to our desktop pc para makanood ako with ear phones kahit tulog si bianca. Kaso di pa ako marunong gumamit. Nagpapaturo na nga ako ulit so i can catch up.

Marose, san pa ba may bon chon? Went to the greenbelt branch. Meron din daw sa ayala triangle?

Marose, grayce, how much naman yung chanel? I want to give it a try.

I'm here now at my parents' house. Nas-senti ako kasi they sold this house ba. The buyer paid last week and we havd until end if may to vacate. I lived here from 1989 when i started high school here in manila until i got married in 2004. This is where we get-tigether when both my parents are in town. This is where relatives from abroad stay when they're in town. Parang halfway house na din. I will miss it. And after my sisters move out, magkakalayo na kami. My single sister is moving to her studio condo, my other sister and her twins are moving to a house sa may batasan tapos ako paranaque. Nagd-drama ako sa kanila. Bunsong girl kasi ako kaya may pagka-sheltered at madyadong clingy sa family. Clingy naman kami lahat pero ako yata ang pinaka. Sabi ko dapat magkita pa din kami saba every sunday pero kung di pwede, at least man lang once a month. Naiyak nga ako nung sinabi ng dad ko sold ba yung house. :( pero happy din kasi the mOney will go a very long way. Sorry, nagdrama ako. Sad lang ako talaga.

^Lisa, we download the episodes every friday afternoon hehe. I started getting hooked to this series when I was preggy. Nice ang story and goodlooking ang characters hehe.

We bought formula na pala for Zoe kanina, we decided to buy Enfapro A+. Mixed feeding na kame kase I dont want to totally stop breastfeeding pero yung milk ko kulang na talaga for Zoe and I feel bad everytime I leave tapos konting milk lang ang nasa freezer.

I'm itching to buy Tartine et chocolat perfume for Zoe or Mustela Musti. Si hubby ayaw nya mag-perfume si Zoe, sabe ko hinde naman lage gagamitin, pag special occasions lang. Eh my cousin from Germany is coming home this May and asked me what I want for Zoe so I told her to either perfume. I hope masunod nga nya noh kase last time nagpabili ako jan, iba binili nya na mejo hinde ko type. Eh her kids are here sa house namin ngayon for vacation and this May sabe nya baka pwede daw dito sila mag-stay samin for 3 days ng hubby nya. Grabe, hotel-hotelan talaga ang drama ng house namin :P

Van, up-to-date ang downloads. Wala lang time to watch.

I read the books even before the tv show Started. The tv show is much much nicer. Dragging yung books kasi.

Type a reply for you sa kabilang thread per nag time out. Post ko na lang here.

when will zoe take formula? When you're not together? Depends on you naman how often you want to nurse her or give expressed breastmilk then supplement na lang with formula.

What i do now is to give the breastmilk in the morning. That's always her first meal. I get about 4oz lang kasi so good for one feeding lang. The rest of the day she takes formula na. If you plan to give ebm plus formula, you may wish to follow that system din.

But you have to take note that bm is easier to digest so either you feed her more often or you give more per serving.

B takes 4oz per feeding. If ebm, 2 hours pa lang hungry na ulit. If formula, she lasts mga 4 hours before sHe needs to feed again. But on the average, she takes a total of 30-32oz per day.

^Lisa dragging nga daw the books kaya I didnt read them na chaka malaki daw ang difference ng story compared sa show. I was planning to  buy the books before pero may mga nabasa ako na ganong feedback kaya hinde na lang.

On formula naman, plan ko naman kase mga twice per day pag hapon siguro. Kase when I'm here gusto ko mag-direct feeding pa din sya saken. At night naman, ebm muna bago sya matulog tapos formula siguro yung next nya. I had her try enfalac kanina pero 3 oz lang muna just in case she doesnt like it pero so far naubos naman nya at nabitin sya kaya I nursed her pa hehe.

Lisa, I got my loose powder (White Essentiel) at Rustan's for almost 3k.  I got my pressed powder (Poudre Universelle compact) at Duty Free for $41.  It's much much cheaper to get cosmetics and skin care at DFS.  I love talaga my Chanel powder. Iba talaga.  I was a Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier user before but once I tried the Chanel makeup, I was hooked.  Butasan ng bulsa!  Naligaw kasi ako sa Chanel thread sa Let's Primp and Prettify.  Ayan tuloy. 

Hubby and I watched a movie this afternoon.  Source Code with the gorgeous Jake Gyllenhaal.  Maganda naman.  It's been so long since we watched a movie!  Eat Pray Love pa yata ang last, which I didn't like.

Birthday ng hubby ko sa Tuesday.  Wala pa kong gift!  Pupuslit ako sa Rustan's tomorrow.  I plan to buy him cologne or skin care.  Ano kaya ang mas okay?  Marami ng clothes at shoes ang husband ko so out na yun.

Marose, which is better - loose or pressed powder? i will check it out on friday. pwede sana pabili abroad, my sister is going to london end of june. if i respond well to it, i will ask her to get a couple for me then.

Van, 3oz for her weight is bitin na nga. my pedia estimates how much the baby should be getting per day based on weight eh, not based on age. pedia said if consistently, she gets hungry in less than 2 hours, it's time to increase by 1oz. eh si bianca good pa naman for 3-4 hours if formula.

what's your system ba for ebm? pumped yesterday to be fed today? kasi me, once naubos na breastmilk, don lang start formula. but yon nga kasi i don't naman get enough to last her a day. but when my husband was hospitalized last january, i would pump in the hospital and freeze the milk so paguwi ko, medyo nakaipon ako. ganon pa din, we gave the breastmilk the day after we got home. ubusin all the breastmilk muna then formula.

if you will be at work and your ebm is not enough for her feedings while you're away, maybe that's the time you give formula. sayang naman din kasi if you stop nursing her.

apple sent me a text message. she said her policy on cancellations is normally non-refundable, non-transferrable but she said that because i was referred by marose (thanks, marose!  :) ), payag daw siya to transfer. BUT it has to be a new client, someone who hasn't inquired yet. not sure if i can find someone pa so i'm thinking maybe i'll get na lang balloons from her to make the place festive kasi walang ka-decor-decor sa cpk eh.

si alex lagula naman will refund me 50% kasi he had to turn down another client for nov 13 kasi nauna ako. so all in all, 2500 lang ang loss. sayang pa din kung sa sayang but at least yon lang kesa we spend for the original plan tapos magsisi kami sa huli. pero syempre, napikon pa din asawa ko sa akin because the expense could have been preventable.  :(

so jen, kim, pia, thanks for your offers na saluhin yung payments ko pero di pwede.

lisa, nasa $60sgd banda ang pressed powder and loose powder. but this is based on duty free price. d ako bumibili ng makeup outside df as much as possible lalo na kung mga foundation and so, laki kasi ng price diff. if you want something more convenient, pressed powder. mas ok finish ng loose but mas messy. sayang naman yung sa ibang suppliers, d pwede transfer :(

btw, nakuha ko na fuzzibunz. ngayon ko palang cya nakita hehe :P

tin, yung 1,8k last year lang. last DP ko sa derma ko last november lang :) sinamantala ko na kasi nung umuwi ako na magbonggang masahe, derma, pagupit etc. ang mahal kasi sobra dito, presyong ginto! :(

pia, no problemo. alam mo naman ako basta sale nanlalaki bigla ang maliit na mata :P

1st month ni jayden ngayon. nag no signboard kami kasama hs barkada ni hubby. yung 1 kasi kasama namin here sa house tapos nagkataon one of their barkadas went here with his gf for a 1wk vacation.. originally dapat kami lang ni hubby magdidinner sa labas to celebrate baby's full month. kaso sabi ni hubby celebrate na rin kami somehow with his barkada kaya yun. nung una gusto nya pacater daw dito sa bahay but officemates lang naman kasi nya madalas ang ever present sa ganyan at inuman ang ending panigurado kaya umayaw ako.

^ sis, happy 1st month baby :)

Naku baka naman presyong long time patient na yun sis, hindi kaya? Kaya kung 1.8k lang. If more than 3k na, parang hirap na bitawan. Lol!

Marose, buti na lang di ako nagsign up sa chanel thread.. muntik na, baka mabutas din bulsa ko.. Sa tingin mo ok ba cremeblend ng MAC of MSFN talaga? Tsaka na ko mag chanel pag manager na.. haha!

tin ako kasi di ganun ka sensitive balat ko kaya kahit san pede ko.. kahit sa cheapest! hehe! di kita marerecommend sa mga mga pinupuntahan ko kasi sensitive skin ka ata.. kay grayce ka talaga makakakuha ng tips. :) derma ko is dra. camagun sa ust. sa bh 6750 siya din.. pero if regular facial and DP sa mga skin clinics lang ako..

Lisa yup may bon chon sa ayala triangle.. Masarap ba talaga? nagutom ako bigla

Lisa, try mo muna sa counter ang Chanel powder - mas gusto ko ang loose, by the way, pero mas convenient nga dalhin ang pressed powder at pretty ang compact - para makita kung hiyang ka.   :)

Haha, kakatawa naman si Apple at ni-name drop pa ko.  Puwede na sigurong gamitin na lang sa balloons yung nai-downpay mo sa kanya. ;)

Nesz, hindi pa ko nakagamit ng MAC foundie ever.  Hanggang lipstick at lipgloss lang.  May MAC thread dito.  For some reason, hindi ako attracted sa MAC products.

Seriously, yung mga sissies na ka-chat ko sa Chanel thread, yung iba students pa lang haha.  Laki siguro ng allowance nila. ;)

Grayce, happy first month to Jayden!  May pamangkin ako, Jaeden naman ang spelling ng name niya.

Nagulantang ako sa quote ni Bunny Baker sa akin.  8k for a two-layer cake (with 8 in. base) and 5800 for the 8 in. round cake, fondant icing. 

Si Gel Colet, nasa 3500-4500 ang quote niya for a 10 in.-12 in. single layer round cake.  Halos pareho lang ang design na pinakita nila sa akin.

Nakupo, I never spent more than 6k for cakes and cupcakes before.  Naisip ko lang kasi na magandang mag-fondant cake for Mickey Mouse theme kasi napaka-vibrant ng colors.

I am waiting for Gel's final quote.  Mukhang hindi na muna ako mag-o-order kay Bunny Baker.

Nesz, schoolmate ko siya though mas kilala ko ang older sisters niya.  Nag-order ako sa kanya ng cake for my mommy dati ang nasarapan kami sa butter cake niya.   Pulido pa ang fondant.  Malapit lang naman ang bahay niya sa amin kaya hindi hassle kahit na pick-up lang namin.

-sis van! klaus will appear on the apr 21st episode!  i have to go back and "review" the episodes again ;)  i think klaus is using alaric's body so he cannot be found because he knows that his life will always be in danger. unfortunately, they say alaric might also be the sacrificial lamb for the season's ender :(

-marose, my hubby has always loved money clips.  the best i bought him was a cross money clip from national bookstore but when i went back because he lost the one we gave him, wala daw stock.  i think i got him one from lacoste, bass and another brand from rustans which i can't remember. the best money clip is the one whose edges are enveloped in rubber so no matter how thin your bills get, it will still hold.

-grayce, happy 1st month to jayden~  enjoy the toothless year.. before you know it, highschooler na siya :D

-lisa, sorry to hear that you're going to miss your old house.  it's really hard to let go of things that hold alot of memories. (((hugs)))

weird.. i open my messages in girltalk and i get a warning for padding member count?! what does that mean? i don't even care how many messages i've written.. and then i have another warning for writing subscribing.  that's what i can say i am guilty of. bawal pala yon. so there! don't write the word subscribing in any of the the threads or else you will get a warning message :P

good morning mommies!  :D

Lisa - no worries re apple, I'll send mine this week na lang  ;)

Re formula - ako naman, I will buy small can na lang since pa 6 months na si Y so change milk na ulit.

Re make ups - nahihilo ako sa dami ng recos on your chikahan, saka ko na isipin ulit pag make up shopping na ako.

@ domestic diva - sis ano na kase ulit your name? anyway, ano ba yang mga warning warning ng GT lately? di ko magets. May mga nakikita ako na "moderated" or "watched" sa profiles nila. Why kaya? sana di ako maganyan kundi, baka mawalan ako ng gana mag GT. LOL  ;D

Jen, check mo sa GirlTalk Community Rules.  Yung iba, muted kasi pala-away (gaya ng "best friend" ni Marcia).  Yung iba naman, nagse-sell sa non-selling threads.  Yung iba, nag-i-incite ng away.  Iyan ang extremes.  Alam ko, bawal din nga ang joining or subscribing lang ang ilalagay sa post, padding yata ang tawag doon.

-Hi Jen! I'm Grace.  Sa tagal tagal ko na sa GT, first time I got a warning.

-Marose, ok so padding pala is also just writing subscribing.  Dapat pala you have to write an opinion or thought instead of it. Oh well!

I usually don't hate Mondays but I hate the way my Monday started today.
