Travel: US Visa Approved!

Throwback to the day of our appointment: You can imagine our happy state as we walked away from the booth of the consul who said that our passports will be delivered in our address in the application!  My daughter’s got a twinkle in her eyes! On exactly the 5th day after the appointment, we received

Family Mode: Neighborhood Game Cafe

Everyone or at least most of us wants a chill out place that is homey.  One that will make you feel like you’re still at home but you’re not.  I found the place in the Banawe Area along Ubay Street.  Tucked in the neighborhood is a new game cafe that will let you eat, play

Family Mode: Visiting Tsim Sha Tsui Part 2

It was a very long day.  But kids weren’t tired yet so we decided to go the Avenue of the Stars which we discovered was already closed.  There was still a viewing area / deck near the Clock Tower though. Kids enjoyed running around, taking pictures of the Victoria Harbour, and looking at the boats

Family Mode: Awesomeville in Gateway Mall

There is a new place in town.  It looks really nice in the picture.  Will definitely visit this place with my kids. Awesomeville is located at the 4th floor of Gateway Mall in Araneta Center.  Very competitive rates at only Php 200 for an hour of ultimate fun!  If that’s not enough, you could choose

Food Trip: Craft Coffee Revolution

In 1 week, I was able to bring hubby and kids to Craft. Unfortunately, Chocolate Lava isn’t available.  We settled for Chocolate Fudge.  It is good but nothing can beat the Lava! It was already late so I didn’t want to repeat what happened to me last week.  I didn’t sleep until 4am in the

What is Cellulitis?

About 2 weeks ago, my little D had an ordinary mosquito bite on her right lower leg that she kept on scratching, so the bite mark just kept on getting bigger and deeper.  We didn’t mind the bite that much as we thought it was just a regular bite.  We put cream on it and

When Disaster Strikes

This is how it looked like in our room tonight! Kids’ toys, books, crayons, and what nots all over our bedroom floor!  It took me a few hours before I finally sorted everything in their own places!  And now my back is aching like crazy.  When it touched the bed, I couldn’t move anymore.  This

My funny kids

Last night, it was sleeping time already, so I went out of the room to get milk for the 2 kids.  About 3 minutes after, I went back to the room with 2 bottles of milk, only to find out that they have doodled and were still doodling and drawing lines some walls with their

Sunday Funday with Little Friends!

It was an impromptu plan but it was definitely FUN!  My friends Ann and Haidz, together with their daughters and yayas, met us (me, hubby, Daphne & Denise, yaya) at McDo Quezon Avenue for breakfast!  Our kids almost belong to the same age group!  They enjoyed the Play Area with their yayas while we parents

Japan Weather

It is one thing to travel with kids, then another to travel to a very cold place.  As I am writing this and an exactly one week before we fly off to Japan, I am hearing and seeing how cold it is there now.  Freezing cold. Now, how are my kids going to cope with
