We Went to the Zoo

diane — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:23:11 +0000

Last Sunday for family bonding time we decided to go to the Zoo. And also for Cate to see real ducks. She has been fascinated with the ducks on Barney show lately. And her reaction? She was doing this the whole time! LOL!

We had a great time at the Zoo. I am asking the husband to go back there as soon as Cate grows a little more. She will appreciate the animals more when she grows older.

Ok now I am thinking on what to do next Sunday. I might give birth by then but Oh well, I am just thinking of a b-b-q party for my family on that day when I saw this weber grill on www.grillsdirect.com. I want a good grill like that on my backyard someday.

I got the title when I was reading my google reader. A blog about home designs posted this photo of a nursery with this quote on the wall. A perfect title for my LO for my little Cate. Cate is just a week old here. Such a tiny cute little bundle of joy.

Those flowers are so cute right?

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Stressed!

diane — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 05:41:19 +0000

I am really itching to scrap right now. I am so stressed with the baby boy in the tummy being small for his gestational age and my delivery getting nearer. I need to release all of these stress. Need to browse galleries to keep me inspired. Will do that later after I check these riding helmets worn by equestrians. My husband said he can also use it in riding a motorcycle too. Some of his friends wore it that’s why. Oh well, I will take a look at these helmets first and then I am off to scrap. Yey!

Yoohoo!

diane — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 17:19:51 +0000

It’s 1am already and here I am, still in front of my laptop doing some unimportant things online. I am too lazy to work right now. All I did was to change the themes of my blogs. I had a hard time looking for a theme that will fit my blog a while ago. Thank God for friends who are there to answer your questions on which sites they download nice themes. Thanks Jhari if you are reading this. =)

Did you notice this blog has a new theme? Yey! After 40 years a new theme is installed! I meant to change the theme of this blog a few months ago but I was drawn to finding the mighty flea yoyo for a friend who is asking me to help her find where to get it online for her son. It will be her Christmas gift for him. And thank God I was able to find it. But the sad thing is I wasn’t able to change the theme of this blog. But who cares it is now fresh and has a new wardrobe. haha!

I had so much fun creating this LO for Cate. I love that picture of her. Too cute isn’t she? Plus almost half of those list are all commercials, yes my daughter loves watching TV. And she adore those commercials. She just stops whatever she is doing whenever her favorite commercial is on.

Wedding Outfits

diane — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 11:36:12 +0000

Some people are not aware of the right dress to wear for special occasions like in a wedding. Some wear jeans and a top in a formal themed wedding. And it is sometimes what ruins the wedding. Not a good thing to see in pictures right? I like to wear a dress even if it is a non-formal or casual themed wedding. I think it is more appropriate to dress like that specially you are going to the church. So be aware about what are the do’s and don’ts in wearing if you are going to a wedding.

There are a lot of nice selection for wedding outfits for guests over at Gray and Osbourn so I am suggesting this site if you are in a hunt for a nice dress to wear on a wedding. They got beautiful gowns for formal wedding and some casual dresses for a non-formal wedding. I will bookmark this site for future references.

By the way, I like the two pictures above. Don’t they look elegant?

Mouse Replacement

diane — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 17:27:35 +0000

I need a new mouse. My mouse is dying and I need to replace it before it completely give up. I am not used to using the one attached to the laptop thingy (sorry forgot the right word). So in my hunt for a new mouse and a coupon for it, my attention was drawn into the gamestop coupons. Now I want to get one too for my cousin. Ugh! Must focus on my mouse first before anything else. I hope I can visit the computer shop tomorrow. Will ask hubby if he can drive me there.

Please mouse don’t give up. At least after I bought a new one. Thanks!

1st LO for 2012

diane — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 17:05:11 +0000

Another year of creating scrapbook pages yey!

I think I made almost 50 pages last year. I wanted to double it up by this year but I doubt it. I won’t be able to have more time to create pages for sure as I am giving birth next month! 2 kids will take all of my time. I hope at least when they are already asleep I can have some time to scrap. Fingers crossed now.

I only have 1 page to share for my 2012 album for now. But I am currently scrapping some pages for my CTs. I hope to finish it soon so I can share it with you all.

Ok, Here’s my latest LO:

I used this very nice template of Krista of Sahlin Studio of TLP.

This is not my style as my friend said. But I love the outcome of my page here. The photos are so special to me as it was my parents 35th anniversary. We had a grand time celebrating that special day.

I hope you all liked my first page. I will share my next LOs soon.

Happy scrapping everyone!
