Currently – April 2017

Currently APRIL 2017

 

“Mommy, it could be a girl AND a boy because your tummy is big. Soooooo big.” – Blake, 5

It’s been a while so I figured I’d open up with a statement my little one said to me one morning. Kids have no filter, don’t they?

Anyways, I missed March currently because we were vacationing that time and to be really honest, I wasn’t feeling it. In case you’re wondering, I am pregnant!! (hence B’s statement). I haven’t been feeling well lately so I took a break from blogging. But I feel guilty abandoning this space so here I am, trying to start over. 

I’m currently:

…starting to show. The bump is now 17 weeks. Those know me probably won’t notice because I’m big to begin with but yeah, my clothes are tighter and not because I over ate. :p

…enjoying the second trimester. I was knackered on the first three months. I don’t remember experiencing this with B before. In fact, I didn’t have aversion to food (only really strong scents), but its different this time. Onions and I are not friends. 

…planning for the future. I mean … the near future. More deets on a separate blog post I guess. 

…needing a break. My doctor is concerned about my situation since I’m not young anymore and has a history of miscarriages. On top of that, my blood pressure is acting up. I was advised to take it easy.

…feeling anxious. It’s still early but I just want to get this over and done with. Is that a bad thing? I have a lot of thoughts about this pregnancy and I’m not even sure if I want to share them. I guess I’ll have to “take it slow” — just like what the doctor ordered. 

What’s happening with you lately? Leave a comment below!

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

    Congratulations! It’s always nice to hear about a pregnancy; even nicer that it will be a rainbow baby ☺
    Take care!

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

Just a normal day with the fam. Sometimes the be Just a normal day with the fam. 

Sometimes the best memories aren’t from big adventures but from the simple moments—like game night in a cozy cabin, laughing until our stomachs hurt. We booked our Big Bear stay through @airbnb and @avantstay gave us the perfect backdrop for a weekend full of fun, comfort, and family time. Definitely one for the books.
