Samantha was sick since yesterday. Her fever, between 38-39C for the past two days. She won't eat and she's been so extra clingy to Mommy. Obviously, nag-lalambing!
We brought her to Medical City ER, just to be safe. We were surprised to see ER was full and we were on waitlist for available bed. Grabe, puro kids talaga with fever! Parang may epidemic nga at the hospital!
When the nurse got Sam's temp, it was 40.3C. This prompted the nurse to endorse us immediately to the resident doctor. We were prioritized and given the next available bed for Sam to lie down. She was as given paracetamol and was asked to apply cold sponge bath to subside the fever. After three hours, Sam’s temperature went down to 38.4C. As per her doctor, it is still too early to give her the CBC plate count. The result will be negative since it will take three days for any infection to manifest.We were then advised to go home and observe should there be any changes on Sam’s condition.
As first-aid solution, round the clock paracetamol should be continued. Also, since they noticed she has slight cough and colds, they requested to give Sam nebulizer treatment at home to ease her breathing and nose congestion.
As per my last reading, Sam’s temp already down to 36.4C. She already ate tinola for dinner and now slightly back to her usual self, watching Elmo DVD. Sam’s condition already improved and slowly recuperating from fever.
I think it was Mommy’s tender loving care helped. I didn’t report for work today and just stayed with her to attend to all her lambings. Hopefully, she gets better soon. Kawawa naman Sammie! :(

New Baby
Nope, I am not pregnant… no new addition to the family!
But, got myself a new baby…. My new Nokia 6300 mobile phone! Yehheey! Finally, I was able to upgrade my phone after two years. Hahaha!
I am not a techie gadget-type person, but I love everything about this phone. Aside from its usual mobile phone function, it has integrated MP3 player and stereo FM radio. Nice camera with 2 mega pixel quality and 8x digital zoom. And you can take great videos too! Really cool, huh! :)
And best of all, it is very stylish, sleek with matte stainless steel finish. Elegant looking! Simple and easy to use and… very affordable too! (real winner for non-techie person like me, promise!)
So there you go…out of my frustrations to get myself new LV bag (still, no available stock btw!), I opted to upgrade my mobile phone instead. Hah!
Gosh! I can’t stop spending …mauubos ko na budget ko for my LV bag! lol.

Samantha School Updates
Sam officially started schooling October 1 at Fairchild Learning Center.
One week passed and we are surprised with the changes that happened to her. It seems she emotionally matured overnight! Well, that is an overstatement. But, really we were able to clearly see lots of changes on her with just one week of school time. :)
As per Teacher Wendy, Samantha already displays readiness for school. Her attention span was longer compared to her previous summer class. She can now follow simple instructions and can participate well with class activities. She has become quite independent in school and as a matter of fact, displays no qualms when no “yaya” with her on her first day. She also interacts freely and plays well with her fellow classmates. Though sometimes they noticed, she’s so picky with her school snacks that she sometimes prefers not to eat. Overall, Samantha displays the eagerness and willingness to learn.
On our end, we see how independent she had become. She’ll play alone and get things she needs without asking help from us or yaya. You can leave her alone watching or playing, and expect that she’ll never get bored. She can easily entertain herself with other little things. At night, before we sleep, we would usually hear her sing their farewell song (may last song syndrome lagi!) and sometimes after praying, she’ll talk non-stop until she reach the portion when teacher would ask them to sit! lol! Mine-memorize sinabi ng teacher.
and for her school outfits….
I opened her cabinet the other day and saw that she’s got plenty of unworn dresses. Funny because aside that she had outgrown these, most of it with tag labels pa!
Haay…sayang lang... and naka-liitan na talaga!
You see, Sam’s usual get up either pair of shorts or jeans with matching cutie shirt top, and her crocs. That’s it! Very simple, cool and low maintenance girl! Hahaha! :)
Though sometimes, really lovely to see her wear dress… so girly! :)

Red Drama Day!
Don't you just love my red shoes? :) Got this few weeks back from Charles and Keith, Trinoma and just loved the striking patent color and sandal wedge-style. So lovely! :)
Really made me smile and feel sexy all day yesterday! Hahaha! Bakit ba, care nila! :)
Anyway, Friday was a happy and splurge-free day with my red shoes and red bag!(Thanks Colleen for the practical bag from SNG!)
Can't wait to wear them again next week with my drama outfit.... all black attire with striking red shoes! Hah, can't wait! :)

still sleeping...
I just can’t resist taking picture of Sam and Daddy while sleeping…
This is how my two babies sleep on a weekend…. So peaceful and funny! Look at Sam’s favorite sleeping position… nakatuwad pa! Hahaha!
Both of them still sleeping while Mommy busy preparing yummy lunch! (Sam's fave: shrimp sinigang, Daddy 's favorite: Inihaw na Liempo)
Still sleeping....and to think I took this picture at 11:20am!!

Party Preps for MIL
I was tapped by my lovable MIL to help her organize her 60th birthday party this coming December. Isn't that great! :) Party planning again for me ... but this time, MIL’s budget! :)
She asked me to help her prepare for 150 guests who are mostly co-teachers, close friends and relatives. It will be simple party to be held at their residence, but I wanted to ensure that everything would be “simply perfect” for her… wow, pressure! Hahaha! Rarely does my MIL celebrate this “big” and I wanted it to be truly special and memorable for her.
I’ve got lost of birthday gimmicks and surprises lined up for her and I can’t wait to share all these. Almost every night I would make kulit to hubby, sharing different party ideas and verify MIL’s preferences. He would always say, “ooopsss, bakit kasama kami dyan?” or “mas excited ka pa sa Mommy ko ah!” Hahaha! True, I am really excited for her. Bakit ba?! :)
I guess my excitement was so contagious that I was able to influence my MIL to shift to party mode immediately. Surprisingly, she asked for my favorite curtain maker last weekend and asked for new curtain design for their home. She told my curtain maker that she wanted to change all her old (lace curtains, hehehe!) to a new design like mine. She wanted the grommet-style curtains this time in preparation for the festivities this coming December. She liked daw how my curtains made, simple and yet elegant looking. (Naaks…syempre, deep inside happy ako kasi she’s proud how I fix our home!)
So… off to Larry’s curtain again this weekend at Divisoria with MIL :) Bonding moments again… and si hubby, “Oh no… Mommy and Jacqui together = longer shopping time! lol.
