iron man

It's fun to do what we love the most once in a while - watching a movie and then exchange our views and criticism about it afterwards. Since Andy is still with my mom in Antipolo, my husband and I finally had a time to sneak into the moviehouse and check out Iron Man. Starring Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark a.k.a. The Iron Man and Jeff Bridges as his father's friend and business partner and became his mentor. Other casts are Terrence Howard as Jim Rhodes Tony Stark's friend and Gwyneth Parltrow, played as his assistant who's secretly in love with him. I have not been to a cinema since the Transformers in San Leandro with Jershon and Girlie last year, Andy was like 8 months old and I breastfed all through out the movie to keep him still. Gee, and that was ages ago...

Anyway, I recommend all my virtual friends to see Iron Man, bring your hubbies and kids particularly your sons, they're gonna love it and they will deify you. Though the movie seems like light years away from reality, you’ll be amazed with the effects and how they managed to keep the movie à la mode by making it humorous. Hubby and I had enjoyed it so much that we just can’t get over; we didn't stop discussing about it on our way home. Ever since, he decides what movie we’re going to see and I trust him with that. He has this excellent preference with films, thus we’ve seen countless excellent ones like the Iron Man.

I also think that hubby and I should do this more often. In this way, we get to spend time with each other. A special day for us not in a regular mode. I really had a great time.

So, let me know if you've seen the movie, alright? I bet there will be Iron Man 2, I’ll just keep my fingers crossed! Very awesome!

wean

I am now officially weaning my son from breastfeeding. The last nights weren't easy because he wakes up in the middle of the night when I try to turn to my sides. He’s asking for milk then cries if I refuse to give my breast. We are both lacking of sleep and it's getting more and more uncomfortable for him and especially for me. I've been thinking about this decision for months now and there was no consistency that's why goals aren't met yet. Good thing that I have my mom here to rescue me. I think that's what mom's are for – to aid.

My mom brought Andy with her to Antipolo and they will stay there until the engorgement of my breasts is gone – as soon as I feel better. Hopefully I will be able to see my son on Wednesday. He's also being trained to drink formula in a cup. I just wish that my mom has found the milk that he likes. Toddlers need milk for energy consumption; it’s the stage wherein they are at their most active phase and the time that they’re difficult to train. They’re so autonomous and they want to do things on their own terms. Though he eats solid food 3 times a day and 2 small meals in between, milk is definitely a necessity for him. That’s why it’s so frustrating, so provoking and maddening when he refuses my offer.

It’s been 24 hours since we left Andy with my mom. Last night was also the first time that we slept without him by our side. We miss him badly and it is really different when he’s not around, however, we have to be consistent. We have to stick to the plan.

It’s my dilemma as of the moment… and if you have suggestion fellow mom-bloggers… your ideas are very, very appreciated! Please leave me comments… Thanks.

Over it

I know it’s been awhile now. Blame it on the coming NLE this June, review has kept me very busy lately. Doesn’t even have the time for a new manicure and pedicure. Sigh.

Anyways, my mom made it on my graduation April 18, 2008. Yes, in spite of the lost passport and green card during accident, she found a way to get here. I’m so delighted that she was able to catch sight of my diploma being handed over to me! She’ll be here until the 10th of May. Graduation is the one of the prevalent events in my life. First was when I had Andy and my wedding to Gerard.

Everything was just right except that Andy’s gums are hurting for an unknown reason. He got very irritable and uneasy. He was pointing inside at his mouth since the other day. In the following morning, he got a fever so we assumed that he’s having his molars. He has no appetite for any food making it hard for me having no choice but to breastfeed him the whole day. Thank God, I was able to carry out the stress. I kept myself calm in spite of the toxicity and voila! The program has ended; I had the diploma at hand and then dinner at Dampa in Macapagal with the family. Baked tahong, sabaw sa miso, buttered shrimp, tempura and inihaw na liempo sealed our gathering. The food was so oh yummy, and we were pleased that Mom enjoyed the food and we all had a fantastic time.

Another chapter of my life has kicked off and I’m not even certain if I am ready for it. From then on, I am now officially a bum! Good thing I have a husband that I plan with and help me prioritize and organize things. I’m attending my review for the NLE at RCAP until May 30th and with God’s grace… I will claim my license by July and finally work as a nurse wherever it is needed. So making this blog short, here are the few photos that I’m going to share with you guys. Hope you like them.

Wine

You Are Chardonnay

You Are Chardonnay

Fresh, spirited, and classic - you have many facets to your personality. You can be sweet and light. Or deep and complex. You have a little bit of something to offer everyone... no wonder you're so popular. Approachable and never smug, you are easy to get to know (and love!). Deep down you are: Dependable and modest Your partying style: Understated and polite Your company is enjoyed best with: Cold or wild meat

What Kind of Wine Are You?

I got this again from Liza, just like what she said... I won't be tagging anyone, if you feel like doing this.. feel free to take the test. Ciao!

book for free!

Hello everyone!! I won something from this book for free! I just left a comment on the book that I want, then after few days, I won! I can't wait to have it by my door.. thank you!! Until next time!

By the way, I got this link from Liza.. Thanks Liza!

despite of it all

Darn, today I have to go back to EAMC to get my freaking cases that I left for the CN to sign. Future nurses swarmed in the nursing office yesterday, bunches of us waited for our requirements to be completed, hoped for an accomplishment. As the deadline of passing it to PRC is only until the 18th. After an hour of waiting, the secretary came out with our papers telling us that we have to come back tomorrow because their boss has to attend some meeting. She should’ve told us earlier, you know? Why the hell wait if they want us to come back the next day!! Yesterday didn’t turn out really well. Sigh.

Good thing they invented days like anniversaries! It was our 2nd year together as married couple; Andy and Gerard were my gorgeous dates. We spent the whole evening in ATC and had dinner at Fridays. Andy had a great time too; he enjoyed nibbling his fries and played with the silvers every now and then. Hubby and I had a superb meal! It was a really nice special treat after a bad day... Sadly, I forgot to bring my camera, I can't share photos with you this time.

However, Happy 2nd anniversary love!
