Amber’s Vocabulary

Here are some of my favorites from Amber’s growing vocabulary...

Gasolation.

Amber: Daddy, wala na gas yung car, we need to go to the GASOLATION! [gas.station]

Belcony. 

Amber: Mom, bakit wala tayong BELCONY?

Bunay: Anong BELCONY?

Amber: BEL-CO-NY! That’s a place in the house where you can see people outside.

Aaahhh... balcony!

Dekember.

Amber: It’s DEKEMBER, not DESEMBER! Kasi it’s spelled as d-e-C-e-m-b-e-r! C is for kuh-, kuh-, like car. So it’s DEKEMBER!

Grudge.

Amber: Daddy is in the GRUDGE.

Bunay: Where?

Amber: In the GRUDGE... when you walk out of the door, you will be in the GRUDGE. [garage]

Enimol.

Amber shows one of her LPS toys to me and says, “Mommy, what ENIMOL is this?!” [animal]

Nakaka.lo.ka!

Summer 2014

The Hubby asked me if I wanted to go to their company outing.

Being a Mom, I first have to consider a lot of things before I let my kid go out under that scorching hot sun. Well, scratch that! I just am not, and will never be, a beach person because I can’t swim. I’d rather stay someplace cold than be under the sun in a beach.

But then, I also remembered how the little girl enjoyed our little summer outing last year. 

So never mind that Mommy has very little affection to beach and summer, the little girl likes it. So off to the beach, we go!

Who said I’m the only one afraid of the sun? The father-and-daughter tandem wore long-sleeved rash guards despite that they almost emptied our supply of sun block lotion.

I did not swim. For reasons you already know. TEEHEE! I just enjoyed the scenic view... and the camera! Of course!

It was a tiring day because the travel time to and from the resort took us a total of 7 hours. But the look on all the children’s faces that day is just worth the long travel hours.

Until next year! :)

New and Not-So-New Things

Not-so-new year, new neighborhood, 

not-so-new house and new school for the little miss...

...who is wearing that cute little new dress [uniform].

Homecoming!

I’m back! ^_^

And it feels so great to be back in this little corner of mine, my home in the World Wide Web!

The long hiatus is over, unless I’ve been taken and held against my will. So if you don’t hear from me for a couple of months, please feel free to report that I’m missing. ;)

For those who left me comments and messages... I’m so sorry for not being able to reply.

I have a lot of cleaning and catching up to do here. It’s been a looooong 11 months! Wait!!! Are those cobwebs on the corner of my page?!?! Tsk!
