Tomorrow will be baby's baptismal and I'm quite excited to dress him up =) with the prince inspired baptismal clothes that his godmother sent him. I can say this boy is really lucky, since the time he was born he's been receiving many packages. Of course mommy and daddy are lucky too, those packages helped us so much in cutting the costs of buying clothes and other things for baby.
Last Thursday I waited whole day for that special package and even if I wanted to rest and take a little nap I just simply can't in fear that I might miss the package delivery. I checked on the site that it needs my signature therefore the delivery man won't just leave it by our door if nobody attended to his knock. Right after getting the package I opened it and put it on baby. He's so cute!! One thing that amazed me is how big he is now, imagine his asian size is equivalent to 6months already. No wonder mom and my bestfriend always say he's so big whenever we chat.
Last time I posted about our on-going car search and I remember Lina asking me when we'll be most likely finalizing our car deal. I also talked to hubs about it and he said once we're done with the baptismal stuff then we can further proceed. We'll just finish the last of this expense and then work on our car deals. I actually agree with him too, we want to have extra padding for baby, car or whatever deals we'll be dealing with. So far I have been so busy and didn't have time to search for cars. I'll check out those other models like
Nissan Altima,
Ford f-150,
Toyota Tacoma,
Cadillac sts just to compare also the advantages and disadvantages of our previously chosen models. This car deal alone is tiring and time consuming =P

There's a nearby (as in a block away) heritage theater from where we live and it's quite a shame we never had the chance to see anything there. There was once an opportunity when hubs sister was performing with the school band there but baby's too young to be brought out at chilly night time considering he was just about 2months old. We missed to watch the performance so as hubs, he had to do overtime that night too.
I remember browsing show schedules there while I was pregnant but later on just felt bad that we'll be missing good shows at the start of 2010 most especially Cirque de Soleil. Hopefully next year they will have it again so we can take baby with us and see the show. By that time we can also check out alamodome tickets, disneyworld, marcus amphitheater tickets, and minutemaid park tickets. So much things we want to do with baby in the future =P

Baby and I have been going out just to have a little sun and check the
mailboxes as much as we can everyday but there are days when the weather is just bad like so chilly and a bit of showers, those days we just stay home and just leave the mail checking with daddy. So far that's part of our everyday routine since the
mail boxes here always get junk mails like newsprints for groceries and other ad mails.
...baby all dressed up so warm whenever we go out and about...One advantage of having residential mailboxes outside is that we really have to go out, that gives us more reason to do some outdoor activity. For now baby only goes out very seldom but once he's months older then we'll both be going to places together. The farthest place we went to on foot was daddy's office, we surprised hubs one time. I walked baby all the way to his office and back home. That served as my exercise and baby's day out.

This shot was taken by yours truly last January 17, 2009 when dad, hubs, elisse and I went to the fishing area dad always goes to. Before going there we visited the lot property we own nearby then headed to the pond area. We also wanted to bring hubs there so he could relax a bit and have some fresh air. We couldn't stay so long because that day was hubs' little sister's birthday so we didn't really get our hands to throw some reels and go fishing. Dad bought freshly caught fishes and made us bring over to my in-laws later on. The day out was fun even if it was short time, the memories we made there with our little elisse is all worth it. Oh my....I miss this little girl =(mimi,

Hubs and I haven't settled for the car that we want to get since we are still on our final review of our funds for our spending goals like the car, plane tickets and house. As much as possible we want to maximize our funds and not just spend it unplanned. Money doesn't grow on trees so it's tough balancing everything without having to empty our resources.
Just about few weeks ago we had another car problem and hubs spend quite an amount the cover up the repairs including head gasket change and more. Good thing this time his papa didn't insist on doing it and really made the mechanic work on it. At least it's a guaranteed work, we won't really need to worry about another breakdown and so. Who would've thought that same car drove down to LA about twice or thrice. The trusty car didn't even have to pay a visit in Los Angeles auto repair and was perfectly fine on the road. Now we don't think we can bring it all the way too far anymore, having car trouble on the road with baby in... I don't even want to think about it. 
So far I've seen few cars that we can choose from like kia sportage, ford explorer and isuzu rodeo. Those 3 are among our top car search contenders but we're open with other suv's available as long as the price is right. We're really hoping we can settle the car thing already so we can finally move on the house plans. It would be really good to have a bigger home space plus lawn space so baby can play around freely in time. He's growing quite fast...we're being surprised everytime we stare at him these days.
