My $4 Dress

After using my gift card from my birthday, I only paid $4 for this dress. It's pretty AWESOME!!! This is the first dress I bought this year and I am just happy I didn't spend much at all. We don't have extra money to spend for clothes anyway. We are saving up to go back to the Philippines and to buy diapers and baby stuff. Anyway, this dress didn't fit me last week. But it fits now! Still a little tight, but I'm okay with that. Alex will be blessed by his Dad at Church this Sunday and this is the dress I am wearing. I can't believe he will be 1 month tomorrow!

PRECIOUS MOMENT

My heart is melting... I LOVE MY BOYS!!!

10 more to go!!!

I lost 21 lbs in 3 and a half weeks! YAY ME!!! I don't even know why I'm blogging about this.But I would love to look back on this page a month after. I stepped on my scale this morning and I felt really good. 10 more lbs to go and I'm back in my pre-preggo weight. It'll be hard for sure! I still look big, but not that big anymore :-) I still need more determination to shed this extra weight. I don't need it really.

Garlic Shrimp with Brocolli

I am finally back in the kitchen! Actually, since Sunday. We didn't really cook a lot for the past 2 weeks since we got home from the hospital. Our friends and family brought us dinner for the 1st week. It was nice. But I'm glad that I am fully recovered now, and I can cook and clean the house while Alex is asleep... not to mention blogging. I love cooking and learning new recipe.

Right now, we are on a strict diet . We're both trying to lose weight and live a healthy lifestyle. We'll start by eating right. No more junk food... Okay, maybe once in a while.

For dinner tonight, I decided to cook one my favorites! Garlic shrimp with broccoli, YUM!!! It's super good and healthy. Isaac loved it! And of course, since we're trying to lose weight, we only eat half cup of rice per meal. No more unlimited rice. And no more eating while watching TV.

My goal this year is to learn more good and healthy recipes. I would love to be the BEST chef in my small family.

Beautifully Imperfect

I love this commercial. It is very inspiring! Towards the end of the commercial, it made me miss my Father, who passed away when I was 4. I know he's happy to see my imperfect, yet beautiful life. I am blessed to have a husband who is just like my Dad...a wonderful husband and a father. Despite of my husband's imperfection, he is the perfect match for me, and i love him with all my heart!

Mister Panda Bear

Today, he fell asleep by just staring at Mr.Panda Bear (His first stuffed toy from Grandma Vicki) We try not to carry him all the time when he's awake, so he will not get used to it. He's such a good baby. Since 3 days ago, he'll let me sleep 4-5 hours straight at night. I think we will not have a hard time training him to sleep through the night when he's older.I still have to wake him up at 12 midnight to nurse him. After feeding time, we'll cuddle a little bit and then he'll fall asleep till 5am, or a little over than that. At first I was worried...My mother-in-law told me not to worry 'cause he will wake up when he's hungry. He sure does! I am sleeping more at night now. I think I won't be needing my eye cream soon :-)
