Bedroom Needs

Okay, here's our dilemma of having two bedroom house. Right now, our two kids are occupying the same room. We bought a bunk bed for them to use.  Well, they are okay with it  until during bed time.  The little girl does not want a night light but the little boy  wants one.  To meet the agreement, we have to leave the door a little bit open just so a  light from the hallway will be visible at their bedroom.  Hubby does not like the idea of leaving their bedroom door open.

Because of that circumstance, hubby  is browsing  on the list of the houses for sale in the area.  I told him that we should make our plans after  he graduate and  has  a new job so that we can have  house where  it's convenient both for his work and our kid's school.  I really love where our house is right now because we are close to a lot of things like post office, bank, hospital, school, and other establishments.   The only problem is  that  it is not big enough for the four of us.

Having said that, once we can find a new place to live, we will need to buy new bed sets for them.  Our daughter has a complete set already but our son does not have one yet.  So even if it is still far, we are now starting our plans.  The designs of  the bedroom sets below and above would be perfect for our burritos.

I think it would be great if instead of buying an existing house,  is to just buy a parcel of land and build a new home.    Oh, I would love it for sure. I hope that  whatever job my husband will get next time, we would be able to afford buying a parcel of land and build our dream house there.  Right now, it is just a thought.  That's the only possible thing I could do hahaha.  Oh well as the song goes, "Que Sera Sera" or Whatever will Be, Will Be - will determine  what we're going to do  in the near future.

Creeping Phlox

Before we went to Korea in 2008, my SIL Jill gave me some creeping phlox. I planted them along side our driveway. I did not anticipate that it will grow thick. I saw it's first bloom this year and I love it.

I only have it on one side  so after the flowers were gone.  I replanted some of them on the other side.  I hope that next year, it will bloom again.

My first entry to Flowers on Saturday!

I would like to thank Mia of Online Confession of SAHM for the above award. It's since I got one, thanks sis. Please feel free to grab it friends!

Office Furniture

If you are working at home, it is comfortable if you have a formal office furniture where you can work and do all your tasks. I am so glad that hubby has this big computer desk that has a lot of space to put things to. When I was still working, I have a big table too which I was very glad because as a secretary, I did a lot of filing and paper works everyday, especially during the preparation of the end-of-the-month reports.

Running Mate

Here's the baby jaguar that I took picture of when we went to Pittsburgh Zoo.  When we first arrived, he was hiding in his cave and sleeping. Good thing, when we were about to leave, he was  awake and let us see him.

Our Russel Terrier Dog, Champ, is my running mate. Me and Champ runs at our backyard several times a week  and he loves it.  Notice that he never put his ball down, he  carries it while running back and forth with me.  It's hard  running on a very short distance because you get dizzy quite easy.  Usually, we only run for 5 minutes and we're done hehehe.  Below is a video  of us.

Luxury Apartments

Most of the older people will say that nothing can compare the simplicity of living back then. I bet that most of you will say the contrary. With the emergence of high technology in our era, you can pretty much do a lot of things online. You can see a lot of places virtually, book your reservations for hotels and airlines, apply for any moans, and those kinds of stuff. Take for example if you are going to take a vacation in Ukraine, you would be able to browse for an apartment such as the Odessa Apartments where you can spend the rest of your stay there.

Finding this apartment is easier by typing Odessa Ukraine in your browser and you will be able to see their offers and other deals. Above are some of the photos of the apartments Odessa that you can rent for a very reasonable price. Now, give the situation, do you think, you would be able to see where you are staying if it wasn't for the technology development? The answer is NO and thus I would say that simplicity of living is great but the presence of this new technology does a lot for us too.

Beans Produce

Good afternoon everyone, howdy? I am pretty sleepy because my son did not sleep well last night due to his cold. He woke up about three am and he was very hot. So I let him drink a lot of water and wiped his body with a wet rug. That helped subside his fever. We did not sleep until about 5 am, so at 6 am, it was very hard for me to wake up.

Anyhow, while I am doing laundry, I would like to share these photos that I took a couple of days ago. Some of you might remember the post I made about EJ's beanstalk. He found a bean seed on the floor so he planted it at my FIL's planter and it grew and produced a good amount of fruit already.

One thing that I like about us visiting my FIL all the time is that, it becomes a part of my kids' daily routine. They misses their Papa whenever we can't visit him for a day.

Then we came home, we decided to go for a walk around our neighborhood.

Above was taken in front of Rylie's school. Thanks for dropping by folks. Your visit and comments is always appreciated.

What get me excited about this is that I have the chance to win one Tivo remote for free by entering their sweepstakes dubbed as "30 slides in 30 days".

Happy Birthday Champ!

Our dog Champ turned one year old today. He was born Sept. the 19th. He's been with us for almost 10 months now. With that ten months, he chewed out not only a couple pairs of shoes but 5 already wahhh. Good thing, he chose those that aren't new.

But one thing that I love about Champ is his loyalty to us. He won't leave even if I accidentally left the gate of our backyard open. Even when Chelsea was still here, she would ran away but Champ would remain in our house.

Since it is his birthday today, I gave him corned beef and eg for breakfast and hotdog for dinner. I know that hotdog isn't good for dogs but it's just once in a while so it is not bad at all (I think lol). We also gave him a new RED ball for his present and he love it! He love this kind of ball, he already had two but since it's his special day, we got him a new one again.

Have a great week ahead everyone!

Protect Yourself

Survey says that most of the motorcycle accidents which ended up with fatality are those who drive without appropriate protective gears with them. This is specially true in countries where there is no strict laws on wearing them. I am glad that over here in the States, protective gears are mandatory if you are a motorist or else you'll get a fine if the authority catch you driving a motorcycle without it.

If you are a motorcycle rider and in need of the above mentioned gears, there is an online motorcycle center that offer different kinds of accessories and clothing that you need. Motorcycle Center carries different brand names such as joe rocket, Xelement, Fieldsheer, Tour Master, Zan Headgear, and Cortech. They sell boots, helmets, gloves, tires, exhaust and many different motorcycle accessories.

I remember when we were still overseas, my friend Raquel chatted with me and said to pray for her husband because he had a motorcycle accident. He wasn't injured that bad, he only had bruises in his legs and arms. One thing that saved his life is the heavy duty helmet that he was wearing. It is really important to protect yourself with the necessary protective gears when driving a motorcycle.

Gloomy Sky

Hello everyone, how's the weather at your end today. We are having some rain and looking at the gloomy sky makes me miss the bright and sunny days we had when we were still in Korea. I found these photos in my archive. These were taken before we left 9 months ago.

Hope everybody is having a nice time.

Another Level of Gaming

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of PlayStation(R) Move. All opinions are 100% mine.

Oh this is going to be great for those who love to play game with friends and family.  The arrival of the PlayStation(R)MOVE will surely take your gaming experience into another level.  I know a couple of family who owns a play station and  all the family members  participates every time they have their family game nights.  My kids are growing up fast and my 5 year old daughter is already getting interested with playing games on the computer and I want to be able to participate with them when they are playing.  

I think that  a PlayStation(R)MOVE will give al of us a chance to bond on playtime.  Not to mention that it would also promote good health for all of us as you don't just sit in front of the computer to play but it requires you to move physically.  If a genie would give us a PlayStation,  would encourage my kids to play sports with me and hubby.  It will develop their sportsmanship  and camaraderie.  What cool is that you bring motion gaming exclusively to your existing  PS3 if you get their MOVE bundle package for only $99.  I am not good with  games but if it will bring me much closer to my kids, I would  definitely love to get involve! 

Gigantic Turtle and Grasshopper/Praying Mantis?

Took these shots at Pittsburgh Zoo last month. They did a great job molding this giant turtle.

Also love this grasshopper who is standing tall at the entrance of the Kids Zoofari.

Have a god Friday everyone. Just a quick update here before I start doing laundry and later on go to my dental appointment.
