Congratulations everyone!
My Boys!
I had my 4D ultrasound on my 29th week. Kenobi was sleeping at that time and chose to put his face against the placenta wall inspite of the OB's efforts to wake him up and push his face away from placenta wall. This explains why the image was blurred.
The doctor can't help but notice how chubby his cheeks are and how pointed his nose is. What I noticed though is his sleeping position. His head was resting on both hands. I thought it was familiar.
He sleeps like his Daddy!
For All You've Done
Lord even in this time of my life... I choose to trust in you and give thanks to you... I will stand back and let you move powerfully in my life... may your will be done in my life... because your will is good and perfect... Thank you Lord for what you're going to do in my life... I love you Lord.
FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE
Don Moen
For all You've done
For all You're going to do
We give You thanks
And lift our praise to You
We give thanks
We give praise
For we know
That all things work together
For our good
We give thanks
We give praise
For by faith
We know Your grace
Will see us through
For all those things
That we don't understand
We come by faith
And place them in Your hands
Even if we stumble
Even if we fall
You will not forsake us
You are King and Lord of all
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

Fajitas!
I was inpired by my bestfriend's chicken fajitas last Monday when we had dinner at their house. So this weekend I made sure I'll make one also.
Chuck is not the typical "kanin-ulam" lover type. He prefers western style of eating. I can't feed him corned beef and pork n' beans forever. Haha! So I'm starting to prepare for it by practicing at home.
My sister was my guinea pig this time and she finished 3! Actually we almost finished the whole thing! Just the two of us. HAHA! Bye bye diet.
Red Cups 08
It has been my tradition to take a photo of my first red cup for the season.
My first red cup for the season is a tall hot Dark Cherry Mocha.
I'm not a fan. I like PEPPERMINT MOCHA better. Parang hindi Christmas pag walang peppermint mocha. =(
Ok ang babaw.
Global financial crisis vs Peppermint Mocha.
Tsk tsk tsk.
I really really love coffee and I love Starbucks. I love them because...
1. they opened a branch in our building... (sorry na lang sa wallet ko)
2. of the super friendly baristas. (yeah I know because they want to sell but the people in our building and those from PSE where we used to go are the friendliest bunch I've ever met)
3. of the yearly planner. Never mind if they're not perfect. Sometime even ugly. (HAHA) Tradition na eh. I cannot attend a meeting without it. (Ok another kababawan moment. What happened to your morals hija? Haha!)
BUT... I still love COFFEE BEAN AND TEA LEAF's coffee and tea more. =)
The 4 Way Test...
in shopping....
1. Do I really need this?
2. Can I live without it?
3. Will I really use it?
4. Do I already have something like this in my possession?
Sooo cute AND useful! Must remember everytime I go to the mall. HAHA!
Hmm... they should have this posted sa malls.
Got this from chuvaness.
While I'm Waiting
I came accross the movie FIREPROOF this morning before I left for church. It just amazes me still how God talks to us in the most creative way. I stumbled upon this on John Mateos Ong's multiply site.
Lately my relationship with Jesus has been on a dry spell. I just miss Him so much lately but at the same time I'm not doing anything to look for Him. Yes I'm still doing church work and serving Him through different ministries but I don't feel Him in my life. And it just made me realize that ministry does not equate a relationship with God.
This morning during the worship service, Hazel said something about times that we just tend to sing these songs but not really feeling it or nothing is coming out of our hearts. But she just encouraged us to still sing, to never get tired of singing and worshiping God until the time our hearts are ready.
I just want to share the song from the movie. It's entitled While I'm Waiting by John Waller. It's really beautiful. I hope it will encourage you the way it encouraged me.
I’m waiting
I’m waiting on you, Lord
And I am hopeful
I’m waiting on you, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait.
I WILL MOVE AHEAD, BOLD AND CONFIDENT. TAKING EVERY STEP IN OBEDIENCE. WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL SERVE YOU. WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL WORSHIP. WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL NOT FAINT. I’LL BE RUNNING THE RACE, EVEN WHILE I WAIT.
I’m waiting
I’m waiting on you, Lord.
And I am peaceful
I’m waiting on you, Lord.
Though it’s not easy
But faithfully, I will wait.
Yes, I will wait.
I WILL SERVE YOU WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL WORSHIP WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL SERVE YOU WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL WORSHIP WHILE I’M WAITING,I WILL SERVE YOU WHILE I’M WAITING, I WILL WORSHIP WHILE I’M WAITING ON YOU LORD.
An oh by the way, I think FIREPROOF is a REALLY GOOD MOVIE. I encourage all married couples and those like me who are going to marry soon to watch it. Trailer pa lang amazing na. I can't wait to see the movie.
a crazy week.
My week started with a sad news. Eugene's aunt who's very close to them (like a second mom) died. She died of complications from her chemo for leukemia. She died in New York. Good thing her sisters (Eugene's mom another aunt) are in Seattle and Chicago to be with her in her last days. We will miss her presence in the wedding. She was even preparing already for what she will be bringing for all of us before she went in the hospital. She's a very very kind person and will truly be missed.
Tuesday was not very good for me either. I started feeling sick. Actually morning pa lang I wasn't feeling good na. But I had a lot of things to do so I decided to go to work. I should've worked from home but I left the laptop in the office na kasi to stop myself from working pag uwi. But after doing the urgent tasks, I decided to go home na. That was after lunch.
Wednesday, I was on sick leave. I just rested the whole day but would turn on the laptop once in a while for urgent emails or questions from my team. (Adik!) Haha! But they were able to manage so hopefully I can do this na more often. Not get sick ha. But just to rest.
Thursday, I wasn't feeling well pa but better na so I went to work. It was Trick or Treat day in the office so medyo busy. Unfortunately, just before the kids went up to start the Trick or Treat, I cut myself with a swiss knife. Hay! A teammate brought pomelo and we were trying top open it when I cut myself. I went straight to the clinic kasi the cut was kinda deep. It was bleeding for an hour! The nurse had to give me a medicine for it to stop bleeding.
Friday, I was so worried the whole day. While in the clinic kasi the nurse asked if I have an anti tetanus vaccine. Then that night Eugene was telling me how important it is. Nag research pa ako on effects of not having one. Ayun super paranoid ako ng Friday. I went to a clinic in Glorietta and had my anti tetanus shot.
Hay having a week like this one will really allow you to appreciate weekends more.
