Preggy..ME

Weeks ago my husband and I were ecstatic knowing we're going to have a baby soon. Members of the family are so observant of my actions. Kinda protective. Don't carry this, don't eat this because it's bad for you and the baby, just rest and eat plenty of vegetables and fruits, etc. I'm overwhelmed with all the attentions. Not that I'm complaining. =)

Before, I've heard from friends and relatives that when you're pregnant, you tend to feel lazy. I thought that was exaggeration. Well, maybe, there's some truth in it. I have finished all the chores I've planned to do for the day, BUT...only in my mind.My mind's so willing but my body isn't. I even don't take a bath for 2-3 days in a row. When prior to pregnancy I can't let the day passed without taking a bath. Funny. And the food cravings..wow! It shifts to a 360 degrees turn. One moment I want some Burrito, the next eggpie, and on other times pasta, meat, and soda. I don't drink soda except when there's no choice, but now..the smell alone seems so appetizing. My weird cravings though is the smell of my husband. I can't seem to have enough especially his after work smell. hahaha! Then, it was the exact opposite. And a lot more. I love taking afternoon naps now. Maybe, it's the hormones working.

I feel luckier than the other though, I'm going 11 weeks on the way, but I never felt sick the others. I felt nauseous one time or the other, but not that worst as vomiting, and can't digest food. I thank God for that.

It will still be months away before the baby comes and I still a have a lot to learn and experience, it will be another journey. A journey we welcome the most.

Remembering Mama

Last friday night mama who passed away 3 years ago, came in my thought. Maybe, because mother's day was approaching. I felt the ache of missing her badly. That week also, it was confirmed I'm pregnant. It was also the reason why I'm emotional on that certain night. My husband and I are very happy of the good news and I was wondering what my mom's reaction would be if she's alive. I can feel her spirit that night. Watching over us and smiling as if assuring me everything will be okay. I cried for I know, there's no substitute for a mother's warmth and comfort when a child is in pain and the thought she won't be there to guide me when I give birth and raise my own child and my baby won't know his grandmother personally. It is heartbreaking, right? And a mother's wisdom is priceless. For sure, I'll feed him with stories about his grandmom and how good a person she was.That way, the memories will stay. And I can perfectly recall how excited she was of being a grandmother in the future. Unfortunately, she didn't experience it.

We offered prayers for her last mother's day, we can't visit her because we're thousand miles way. But I know, wherever we go she's still there guiding us along the way.

We love you so much ma! And we missed you so bad.

Shopping Life

I mentioned earlier that my husband is a shopaholic. The very reason why he accumulated stuffs that he didn't even bother to use or wear.He is a newbie, and I can't help him either. All I know is browse through online store and that's it. Through surfing one can really compare what works better and user friendly. And when we stumble upon this ecommerce articles he became interested of how to be an online merchant.

It gives him a clear idea of how to start it up like a pro without the hassle. He has a sense of security because of its secure ecommerce software. A compelling place to start business with. And the buyer will have a great time shopping online with their shopping cart even for first timers. I will definitely help him with this one because i like this idea of having this business, having a store of my own, where a shopper became a merchant.

The enthusiasm indeed is contagious.

My Husband's Shopping Cart

Women in general, simply love to shop. It's a way of releasing stress or plainly enjoying it. And you can rarely see a man who is addicted to it right? And mind you, MY HUSBAND is one of those you can call who has shopaholic syndrome.. There's no weekend that passes by without spending on clothes, gadgets and electronics and whatever he fancies on that certain moment. He won't buy one but pairs only to stock it up in the closet and give it away to relatives or friends.

There are times I just want to stay at home and relax. He wants it too, but sometimes the urge is strong that he has to make me come even if it means dragging me to store. Two months ago, we had the internet installed in our home. While browsing, the curiosity of shopping online makes me surf through it. And why not try it? The idea of online shopping is totally new and kinda bizarre. I called my husband and together we shopped from one shopping store to another and visited their shopping cart. The following day, we stumble into something good build an online store.They have this great and secure ecommerce software and shopping cart software. It helps us shop with ease and such fun for a first timer like us.

My husband, literally enjoys it. He can now shop at his own leisure in the comfort of our home. Without carrying the stuffs. He is even thinking of being a merchant too.
