snaps: school spirit

this photo was taken during k1′s family day. since hubby and i are couple reps for his section, all the kids of the couple reps were called on stage to sing the alma mater song.

and how smart is this boy to stay near the mic and sing his heart out.

that’s school spirit. even in pre school.

ANIMO!

i am doing something right after all.

i stumbled upon this blog post from my facebook feed. and after reading it, it felt like a pat on the back that i am doing something good for and to my boys.

Here’s the link: 25 rules for mothers of sons

25 rules for mothers of sons

it felt good that from the start, the things that i teach my boys were part of this list. to note a few:

- Be a cheerleader for his life
- Read to him and read with him.
- Teach him to have manners
- Let him ruin his clothes / Get Dirty
- Let him lose
- Answer him when he asks, “Why?”
- Always carry band-aids and wipes on you.
- Build him forts

and to add to my list, let him explore toys that girls play – cooking sets, dolls, etc. because eventually they’ll outgrow these and stick to cars, robots, trucks and blocks. toys are toys, they all make use of a child’s imagination. it will not dictate their gender preference when they grow up. (i grew up playing with boy’s toys, and here i am, a mother of 3.)

what comfort to know that i am indeed doing something right after all in the motherhood department.

resolutions

since it’s the new year, and with people broadcasting their resolutions left and right, might as well post mine.

i listed down things that are feasible to do the whole year and realistic ones, so here goes:

 

- de clutter the room. get rid of stuff no longer needed.

- learn to wear make up everyday and when meeting with clients.

- moisturize!

- list down 1 thing i’m thankful for everyday.

- less: shouting, getting mad easily, impatience, procrastination.

- read more books

- write write write

- take more photos

- blog at least a week.

 

simple right? i opted not to include the losing weight part since doing so would be in vain since i’m on injectibles. but that’s different from getting enough exercise everyday!

 

so here’s to the new year and to goals!

happy new year! happy new you!

snaps: sharing is caring

this is what i treasure. days when they get along.

sharing is caring <3

 

the downside of having kids aged 2 years apart is the constant bickering and fighting over toys. so this is a rare moment when they do get along.

crazy little toys

this is what’s making K1 crazy.

oh and follow me too on istagram! (username: hazehung)

Happy New Year!

happy new year!!

happy new year! welcome to 2012!

i know i know this post is 5 days late. but hey, it’s still the 1st week of the year so it still counts!

my blog may have gone on a long hiatus from posts and content, but i promised myself that this year, i MUST have at least 1 entry per week.

i missed writing so much. all the things i wanted to blog about have been “kept” inside my head. and i think, it’s about time that i let it all out. it may be written in the planner (which i promised myself as well to write in everyday), but it will be posted here.

if your’re reading this entry now, why not leave a comment so that i’ll know i still have readers out there.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

hello!

hey! i’m still alive! LOL! but quite busy that i had to pause blogging (again, for the nth time).

but will be back soonest!

when i grow up

day 29 of the 30 day blog challenge

it was k1′s career day in school and they were asked to prepare careers that they want to be when they grow up.

there’s no need to ask him what he wanted. and so we shopped. (thank you cash and carry)

and here’s our race car driver.

team ferrari

and i think he has the potential to be one. he can beat me at the arcade. he’s a better driver than i am. but of course, at the back of my mind, i’m still scared as hell of the dangers of being a mom to a race car driver. but, i’m all for tha happiness of my kids.

i just hope that until he grows up, he’ll never forget this dream. (or be a doctor or engineer or architect or those usual career path that moms dream of)

i promise

day 28 of the 30 day blog challenge. 2 more days to go!

to post daily again.

..amidst the ton of work i do everyday.

..amidst the new raket i got which requires me to post almost everyday as well, among other stuff.

to use my camera to it’s full potential or just use it for it’s worth.

to be thankful for everyday.

to laugh more. worry less.

to make time for myself.

to lessen complaints. and just act on it.

I won!

never in my life have i won any blog give away, until now. and from who else but from a mommy friend i met online! MAY!

her blog giveaway was loaded with yummyness! and i just had to join! (ok, i loved the bag too!)

and when i found out that i was the lucky winner! i couldn’t believe it, no really!

so i messaged may asap, gave her my address and these goodies came in the mail the next day:

labelled the goodies

oh you can just imagine the sad state those napoloeones came in. they were squished to almost paper thiness. but my mom and i eased their pain. those yummy squares were gone that same day. ( i saved some for hubby of course – and now he’s still craving for it)

as for the piaya and tartlets, they were happily settled in my boy’s tummies. especially k2 who surprisingly adored the piayas. k3 devoured the tarts. where’s k1? well, he had his equal share among all the goodies.

as for the bag, mother dear wanted to have the bag for herself, but i said no. but she can borrow it. it was given by a good friend so, it must be put to good use (haven’t thought of it yet. it sits inside my cabinet though LOL)

and here’s k3, modelling the bag may gave.

nice angle little one

again, thank you may! looking forward to the next giveaway!
