A Black Great Dane...

>> Tuesday, May 14, 2013

A few years ago, my husband used to owned a Great Dane, but since he got married and moved out of his mother's house, he decided to leave the dog with his mom. Somehow, when he first got the dog, he decided at that time to tied her up so she won't get pregnant. I thought that was unusual, but I noticed that there's nothing wrong with the dog at all when it happened to her. Actually she became a very friendly and a very good and smart dog.

For no apparent reason, they said that she only became a problem when taking out for a walk. She would act violently towards other dogs. She was a very large dog and whoever holds her without enough strength to dominate her, would definitely will let her go.

Good thing, when we took a stroll at the neighborhood one day and she saw a dog, and all of a sudden, she gets all agitated, my husband is with us. And we managed to keep her away yet still barking. And if she barked, she was very loud. I wish they have a tri tronics bark limiter though to stimulate her that she doesn't need to bark without being confused or startled of what's going on around her. She was acting this way, I thought maybe because of being too old and also for being inside the house for a long time. And the only place she can go to is the backyard.

Well, that dog was actually finally being put to sleep because of old age and also when my mother in law passed away a couple of years ago. She was indeed a nice dog. I wish someday, I could get one that look just like her.

Easy Way to Control Pests at Home

The warm weather is finally out but I'm also worried because pests are started coming out, unfortunately. I noticed that when the weather started to warm up, I also find ants and silverfish crawling right on our front door. I was thinking it might be coming from the outside but not sure. I thought maybe they were just hiding inside those walls and just waited for the right time to come out when the weather is finally receptive to their part. But not really for me. I love the warm and sunshine but if I have to deal with pests all summer, I would be in ravage.

Therefore, it is important for us to seek help and find out the ways of how to control pests. I know there would be ways and tips of how to keep them away. - I have learned that when you drop a food on the floor or spill juice or any sweet contained drinks, it's better to wipe them off right away with soap and water or pick up the food off the floor as soon as possible, because the scent can attract pests to come and eventually stay.


- Another way to prevent a pest invasion is to keep fruit in the refrigerator. My husband always does this trick because sometimes fruit can attract flies, and it's very irritating and annoying when they are buzzing around your kitchen.

-Also, it's better to keep your garbage clean as much as possible, almost every day.

Last but not the least, it's absolutely necessary to vacuum every day and mop the floor with soapy water! Does it work? Definitely! We decided to vacuum and clean the floor every day because of what we just went through. When we didn't clean off the floor for almost three days, ants, spiders, silverfish and even termites started coming out everywhere. It's better to really get rid of the food from the floor because it really attracts bugs to hang along.

Also, we decided to even twice a year to contact professionally trained pest control company to manage our pest problems. This way we can be rest assured that our home is a healthy place to live especially with children.

Happy Momma's Day 2013!

>> Sunday, May 12, 2013

Today is Mother's day! I just wanted to greet my dear mother, a happy mother's day! Although, we're thousand miles away from each other. I'm still your little girl who always love to be around you. I missed those times when the only smell I love to smell in high heaven is my mom's clothes. I always felt security whenever I'm around with my mom. I missed her so much. I wish I could live near her. But of course, life isn't always I expected. Though, I'm a mother of my own now, I'm still a momma's girl. I wish to see her again and dad. I missed them both already even though I was there last year.

My son's card that he made from school

Anyway, my husband and kids surprised me today with a small gift and their sweet greeting card. I love how my husband can't stand it when he doesn't have anything to give. I told him I don't want anything. I don't need anything at all. But still he insisted and so I got a new pair of flat shoes and a tee from American eagle for mother's day. My kids rather picked something that was best for mom's tummy. They got me a king crab which is my all time favorite.


This day is something we do in order to commemorate our dear mothers. It doesn't matter what they got for me, I'm happy that they're the reason (my kids) that I became a mother, a reason I celebrate this wonderful day. To my kids, I'm thankful to God Almighty for being my kids and I'm so happy that I am a mother of you two!


M-O-T-H-E-R
"M" is for the million things she gave me, 
"O" means only that she's growing old, 
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me, 
"H" is for her heart of purest gold; 
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining, 
"R" means right, and right she'll always be, 

Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER," A word that means the world to me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Learn and Turn Improves Eating Skills

>> Thursday, May 09, 2013


My 22 month old had been an independent eater using both hands, yet one thing she still really needed to work out with is on how to handle utensils properly. I know she was still too young, but I'm too eager for her to know on how to handle a spoon and fork effectively at early age. I always love to show her how, but she would get upset by showing disapproval. She doesn't want to be taught so I thought maybe someday, she will be able to learn how to use utensils by herself, someday. Yet, it's been almost a year now since she had been learning and yet still can't get it right. Every time she uses a spoon, she always ends up turning the spoon upside down. It was upsetting for me because all I wanted for her is to eat the food and not wasting it.



Therefore, I always make myself to feed her. Yet, it's always been a battle since she wants to grabbed the spoon away from me. Although, I'm proud of her eagerness to learn, I'm still worried that she's not eating enough. Therefore, when I found Learn 'n' Turn I was so excited to give it a try. There's nothing wrong with trying new stuff as long as it provides something good for my children.


The Learn and Turn utensil is adjustable, interchangeable utensils which for me is indeed very unique. The first time she held the spoon on her hands, she seemed so excited.  After a few try outs, she finally figured it out and that's where I took a snap shots of her while eating her snack. The idea of making her to use the spoon and fork really makes me so eager to give her more food to try out.


When my daughter used a spoon, she usually try to hold the utensil on either both hands, trying to find where it would work effectively. I'm thinking she might still in search of her ability to use it on either on her left or right hand.  And with the training utensil's it's easier for her to make it right due to its attachments that rotates in various direction. I love the unique grips on fork as well which easier to pick up food especially on pasta noodles.I'm so glad she like the spoon and the fork, that she always seemed to like using it every time she needed it.


The Training utensils is BPA and lead free as well which safe for children to use. It's dishwasher safe (top rack only) which makes it easier to wash and to re-use. It's made from F.D.A approved plastic and designed here in USA. Therefore, I truly recommend this product to those mothers who seek an answer of how to teach kids to eat by oneself.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Weekend Play Time with Kids

Last weekend, my family decided to go to Selfridge Air National Guard Base because of their new playground that was just built last year. I was so excited knowing that it could be our new place to go to when our kids needed a play time and to be outside of the house for once in a while. When we got there, the area were so quiet. We're the only one in there. The play ground was new and I think there are a lot of kids already been in the place. I also noticed a new track for runners which my husband had been telling me about. The place was barely new and I love the playground too because of the choices of slides by ages that kids would surely love to play with.


 So just last weekend, my kids had so much fun. Thankful that the weather is very nice and warm that day. Although, we still need to wear a hooded jacket but it's not a weather that will keep us away to enjoy the weather outside. My daughter were having so much fun exploring the new place. She loves being in the slide, although, at first she was getting familiarize everything. She also had fun with the swing. I thought she would get scared but I was wrong. She showed excitement whenever she's on it and she would exclaim with a smile.


My son loves it too. Although, he was so skeptical getting into a big swing but somehow he managed to keep it down. He also been going up and down on a big slide. They were a little bit bored though because there's only us in the playground. It would be better if there's two or more kids around for my kids to play with.

So next weekend, we're looking forward to go back to the same playground. I hope the weather this coming weekend will be nice and warm.

Woolzies Dryer Balls Review and Giveaway

>> Wednesday, May 01, 2013

Every end of the week that's where I do the laundry. However, this last weekend, I totally missed it. So, my husband decided to washed his working clothes instead, without even telling me to do it, well that's what he is. A very nice man who just rather do it himself, than to ask me to do it instead. Therefore, I felt guilty. I thought of myself, I forgot to do the laundry now I have to make it up to it. While I was doing the laundry, it seemed to be different. It might be a reason of, when I got a chance to try one of the dryer balls that contained a natural fabric softener, I was so excited to get the clothes ready to dry.


Anyway, thanks to Woolzies for giving me an opportunity to try their hypoallergenic dryer balls. Woolzies is an online website where you can find these 100% pure New Zealand Wool Dryer Balls that lasted guaranteed for up to 1,000 loads. I never tried a dryer balls before and this is my first time. Honestly, I was skeptical when it comes to dryer balls but Woolzies changed my point of view. I don't even use any fabric softener anymore either in sheet or liquid due to its harmful chemicals that somehow can be alarming to my family who are congenital to have sensitive skin.


My experience with Woolzies handmade woolen dryer balls were excellent. After some of the clothing were dried and I heard the dryer stopped. I open it right away and I was very surprised when I couldn't hear any static or feel it when I grabbed the clothes. I thought, this thing really works! And this how it works, since balls were bouncing around the dryer, it separates and create space between my laundry which allowing the hot dryer air to circulate better. No wonder why.


 And with Woolzies, drying time was cut down for about 25% in large and 35 to 40% in small loads which would help us to save money and energy. Plus, it's noise free and it indeed helped eliminate wrinkles which mostly my problem was when drying large loads. It's also safe for those people who are allergic to wool because it doesn't shed.

To Take a Flight or Road Trip?

>> Tuesday, April 30, 2013

My husband and I were thinking of going to Florida this summer, however, we're not sure yet since we still have other things to consider. However, if we can, we decided this time to fly because taking it on the road would definitely be a problem because having two toddlers with us would be like a nightmare. Particularly, my daughter who can't even stand it to be in the car for more than two hours. So, I can't see any reason that she wouldn't be cranky all the way to Florida. Yet, I also have things going on my mind when my husband decided to fly instead on taking it on a road trip.

 First of all, if we decided to take a flight, then we would need to contact a car rentals service in order to get to go to places or anywhere we wanted to.

Next, we might also need to rent or buy a new car seat for our toddler because we can't just drive without the little one to be safe and sound.

 However, if we fly, we can get to Florida after a two hours if non-stop flight. And that's way better compare to 22 hours or more driving with two terrible toddlers.

Now, I'm confused. We might need a budget for plane tickets and car rental, though, car rentals can be cheaper but still we need to consider things. Well, we still have more days to think about it.

If you were me what would you do? Tell me your thoughts! I would love to hear some opinion and comments.

Key Ring: Rewards Card Organizer

As a mom, I always wanted things to be in my way. Whatever it might be, I always make sure my kids are too. Therefore, when I'm doing errands everything that I needed to do have to be organized. I always love everything to be in place. I'm totally an organizer. Therefore, I seldom to ask my kids to pick up their toys after they play because I'm just like my mom, I don't like to ask someone to do it because I always like to fix things as I wanted them to be. Therefore, when I got an iPhone and had a chance to organized everything just on the touch of a phone, I'm quite happy because everything is now easier than I thought. I don't need to worry of losing my pocket book of where all my membership information, rewards numbers are and even my passwords hint anymore because now I have my phone.


As a matter of fact, when I found out about an app where you can upload all your rewards cards, I downloaded it right away. I have tons of rewards cards, I think I already have all the rewards membership that most stores are having right now except on stores that I don't shop. The app actually very convenient, I don't need my actual reward cards anymore. I remember I used to have them all the time especially on my key chain. It was overwhelming. It was also unsanitary due to dusts and dirt that it collected.

Now with Key Ring App, everything was so easy. Just took a picture of your rewards card and scan the barcode, it automatically uploaded the cards. It's very convenient and easy to use. Since I have my phone with me all the time, it's very easy for me as well to just find the name of stores on Key Ring and show my rewards card to the cashier. I've been using it for two years now and so far so good. I'm glad that it keeps me organized too. And I don't need bunch of cards anymore on my wallet either.

The Secret to Happiness: Show Respect to Others


Bullying is one of the controversial issue that has been around for years. I still vividly remember when I was in my grade school years, I was a victim of bullying too. it was indeed makes you feel unworthy and even felt so uncertainty about myself. I used to hear about unpleasant things about my hair, my eyes of how funny I looked I was. I tend to fight though. I know I have optimistic reliance on me that somehow will taught these bullies, a lesson they deserve. Therefore, I also find ways on how to fight back to make me feel good. It's not bad to fight back though as long as it's not physical. Therefore, when I had a chance to try this book by suzy liebermann entitled Hugo: The Last Bully.


As I read the book with my son, I could relate in the situation when I was little. Then, somehow Hugo, the starfish, maintain his courage that these bullying would not last long and must be stopped. I also seen other kids being bullied before mostly at schools. And as a matter of fact, my son had been bullied too. It really hurt me as a mom to know what happened to your child, but somehow I was able to managed about it. And, with this book, my son would know how to face those giant kids and to show them what enough is enough. This book really taught young kids how to be confident, and how to deal bullying in a positive ways and how to show respect to others eventually.


 My opinion about kids who bullies, they have no happiness on their lives, maybe their parents didn't show joy on their eyes, they tend to just make someone unhappy as well because they envy these happy kids. With this matter, it reminds me of the Golden Rule. If you want respect, then you need to respect others as well and these book taught that altogether.


Both of the book I received were both award winning finalist in the CHILRDEN’S MIND/ BODY/ SPIRIT category of the USA “Best Books 2011” and "Best Books 2012" Awards because of its content and how the book being illustrated with colorful graphics and designs. Also, I received it on hard cover. My son loved it too and so am I.

So, if you want to grab a copy, you can find it at Amazon eBooks now which also available in children's books in 7 languages. A perfect book to read for kids who wants to teach and learn respect for others to see where this "true happiness" begin.

My Front Yard Gardening Makeover Plans

This post brought to you by Scotts Miracle-Gro. All opinions are 100% mine.

The weather condition here in our city is very unpredictable, yet it can't stop me to do something on our small garden in front of our house. I've been dying to do the job very soon because when the cold weather massacred the plants it used to be in it, before we moved in here a couple of years ago, my father in law used to be the one who tend and care for these small garden, when he was still living in this house. He really did a good job and now it's time for us to take good care of it. Make a difference maybe this time. I thought of planting some flowers in it or new plants such as some butterfly bush as they called it like dazzle berry or maybe some sedum, I don't know what really are the names of those specific plants, but these what my plans are.


But before planting anything on it. I'm also thinking of doing some makeover on the garden bed. I was thinking of covering it with mulch. Mulch indeed added neatness and make the garden to look more refined.  But, I don't know which brand of mulch to get. Until I read some reviews online. The best mulch according to many reviewers is the Florida Select Mulch which is made from 100% Florida-grown Eucalyptus. The Scotts Florida Select Natural Eucalyptus Mulch is a sustainable Cypress alternative, grown in Florida, for Florida! And the Scotts® Nature Scapes® mulch as an option for  lanscaping needs this Spring! It comes in 3 different colors: Classic Black, Sierra Red, and Deep Forest Brown. Speaking of Florida, the place was indeed awesome, no wonder why because they have the best mulch to continue their sustainable gardening for good.

 photo 6d50af2c-aba7-44e2-b0ed-d3510804d726_zps3aae88a5.jpg

The best thing about this mulch is its sustainable which means it would survive any harmful weather condition which our city would bring sometime in the next winter season.  Since this Mulch was made naturally with 100% plantation-grown Eucalyptus tree, I could ensure freshness all year to come. They have three 3 different colors, the Classic Black, Sierra Red, and Deep Forest Brown but I would love to get the  Classic Black. This color would be nicer for my small garden to make the plants stand out.



During summer time, the soil tend to dry and somehow would make the plants or flowers to demise, but with mulch, it would keep the soil moist  which would give my plants to live for so long. I also have problem with weeds but this mulch would keep them from budding like crazy.

Scotts Nature Scapes Advanced Classic Black photo ScreenShot2013-04-04at13618PM_zps99d72d69.png
So to get started on my gardening makeover soon, I got all my gardening supplies all ready now, the only thing that I have to buy soon is the Scotts Florida Select Mulch. So glad I found  Scotts Nature Scapes mulch and soon, I could have my small garden front yard perfect that it can be!

The Secret to Happiness: Give and Share

>> Sunday, April 28, 2013


When it comes to playing with toys, my son tend to act selfish sometimes. Being a big brother he supposed to be the one to give in and understand his little sister. When his little sister would have the chance to play with his toys, he would get mad and just grabbed the toys out of her hands which sometimes the course of being mean. Although, he eventually learned how to share his toys to his little sister, but sometimes kids will always be kids. Therefore, I always have to remind him. If he needed to get his toys, he would ask nicely. Or maybe wait until his sister will get over playing with the toy.


Good thing, I had a chance to try one of the books that teaches about understanding and appreciation about the things he has. Giving and sharing is also being taught on this book which I find very important when it comes to my kids because when it comes to toys, rivalry tend to occur. But first thing, my son needs to learn how to give and share. Sharing can be very challenging for young kids, therefore, to show them how to give it freely can be a great way to enable them to have attitude empathy towards others.


The title of the book is THE SECRET TO HAPPINESS which starred by hugo the happy starfish, a character that would inspired young kids to learn that happiness can be achieve by being positive. This book actually one of the award-winning finalist in the CHILRDEN’S MIND/ BODY/ SPIRIT category of the USA “Best Books 2012” Awards. I'm so glad I had a chance to share this book to my kids.


 Now, you can too because The Secret to Happiness is now available at Amazon eBooks on seven different languages. And, if you purchase this book you also helping children with leukemia. A great new start for you and your kids to give and share to others.

Find UTV Accessories Online

It happened two years ago when my husband were all busy for a preparation of deployment at that time.  I still vividly remember when he was in a regular routine to practice riding a side by side, a utility task vehicle that was usually being used in the service maintenance department to load and unload stocks. It was easy to maneuver he said, however, as requirement to the service,  he was still required to have a permit to drive it anywhere around, within the sector of the base. Since the air base were very extensive, they needed to use an UTV for easy carriage on products they used. I find it very convenient though because then they don't need to drive an actual truck in order to load one or two products which might be just a waste of gas. But with this utility task vehicle, everything was easier and faster to get their job done.

I bet the service had been ordering all their UTV's online. There are a lot of side by side vehicles you can actually find online but as for me, I would definitely don't have any idea of which one to get unless someone who knew all about it would tell me of which one to buy. When it comes to buying products like this, I tend to read reviews because then I will be knowledgeable of which brand of UTV or yamaha rhino accessories is good to buy. There are tons of online stores who sell the same products too, but if you are smart to shop online to find out about of which stores offered it for less, then that's way better.

So, if you own a Yamaha Rhino or any side by side UTV, then maybe it's better for you to explore online stores to find the best UTV accessories at very affordable prices. I bet my husband's military service also did the same thing.

Moms Play Games too!

>> Saturday, April 27, 2013

As a mom, I have lots of things to take good care of. As I wake up early in the morning, first thing I do is to prepare my kid's breakfast. Then, also to tend my son to get ready for school in the morning. During the day, I also do my visits on the hopping I joined on Facebook group. Then, afterwards while doing so, I also put my second child to take her bathe and then prepare our lunch for the day. By the time, I put her to take her nap, it was also the time for my son to arrived from school. And then, by the time he came home, he also needs something that I really needed to do. When it's dinner time, I also cooked for all of us.


Then after dinner, I always asked my husband to put our children to bed when I have a lot of things to do on my blogging. Sometimes, when I don't have much things to do, I will do the job to put my kid's to bed. To brush their teeth and then to read them books before they fall asleep. Then, after I have them on bed, I don't go to bed right away. I still have something to do.


Nonetheless, if I'm on our marital bed, ready for sleep. I tend to play games online too. When I had my iPhone, I always play games on it like Words with Friends. When my dear husband got me an iPad Mini, I started playing Hay Day where I will complete tasks and then do planting. I'm also addicted to playing Candy Crush, one of the top games you can find online. I even saw one commercial about this game. It was fun though, despite all of the chores I have to do, they're all nothing when I played Candy Crush.

Also, I found Smule I could sing songs in a karaoke form. It was fun too and I like it. Too bad you have to pay though when you choose to sing alone. But it was fun and I like it. Just some of the games I played recently which also kept me occupied.

Diamonds just may not be a Girl's Best Friend Anymore....Find Out Why!

Diamonds are one of the world's most coveted items. From clear ones to yellow ones, a diamond shines brighter than the moon and the stars. At www.moissanite.com, you see gemstones that seem to outshine even the most brilliant diamond. Only the quality outshines the volume. Want another gemstone instead? That's no problem. The parent company of Charles & Colvard is the only supplier of moissanite in the world.

Many women prefer moissanite over the carbon-based diamond: It holds a brighter shine, and with its dispersion of light that is 2.4 times greater than a diamond's, it retains its clarity while gently tossing out shoots of color that outshine natural diamonds, sapphires or rubies and emeralds. What was born in the stars but fell from the heavens is now available to almost anyone. These gem-quality crystals are truly out of this world, perfect for pendants, engagement rings, anniversary rings or wedding rings — any occasion at all.

Your limited lifetime warranty of the Forever Brilliant — a quality that even diamonds cannot claim, for they can dull over time — covers the gemstone mounting, defects in workmanship or material with certain restrictions and conditions outlined in the warranty. Since the warranty is non-transferable, they provide a handy wallet card with your purchase and warranty information for easy reference. Diamonds just may not be a girl's best friend anymore with moissanite gems.

>> Wednesday, April 24, 2013

Living in a cold state really makes it difficult to maintain healthy skin particularly during winter season because cold always deplete skin's natural moisture. Therefore, whenever possible, applying lotion is a must. Yet, sometimes lotion is ineffective to keep skin supple and healthy especially on my two children. My first born son was born with a very sensitive skin. He was then diagnosed with eczema, a rare skin disease which associated with itchiness and redness. Sometimes, he would cry for hours because of being uncomfortable. But as he gets older, I was thankful that it diminishes somehow it's off and on thing.


Then, my daughter was born. She also had problem with this skin rash, I don't know why but my kids were both infuse with skin problem. It might be a reason of how newborn, infants or even toddlers were born with vulnerable and sensitive skin? I don't know but I was thankful that I found the best solution. I found out that Sea Buckthorn oils is effective to treat dermatitis. Therefore, when I had a chance to try a product that contained an organic Sea Buckthorn oils, I was excited knowing that it will give my kids a relief they deserved. Sea Buckthorn oils comes from the Himalayan Sea Buckthorn berry. It contains Omega 3, 6, 7 and 9. According to researchers, Sea Buckthorn oils known to promote skin health and nourish body's cells to protect skin from the environemntal forces and various skin conditions.


Thanks to Monkey Balm for giving me an opportunity to try their 100% all natural, easy to use relief Monkey Balm for my little monkey girl whenever severe skin dryness and eczema attacks her. Most of the day, my daughter suffered from severe skin dryness and she will itch it endlessly until it starts bleeding. I felt so bad for her but with an easy application with Monkey Balm, it calms it down and totally reduces the inflammation. Mostly, she had eczema on the back of her legs and arms. I also love how easy to apply it using the application stick. Totally a must have for busy mothers like me who always on a look out to provide my children a healthy skin possible.
