Mamu

David's report card for 3rd Quarter was given yesterday. I am so happy about the results. All of his grades went up. He is running for honor and I hope he would get the first place. If not that is also fine with me. I want him to develop more of his personality and attitude. When he grow up I know he will make use more of his attitude and personality to achieve his goal. Thank you Lord for my wonderful kid.

It was my dad's birthday yesterday. In Batangas, we use 'mamay' for lolo or grandfather. It was a simple celebration and somewhat like a small reunion. Both my brother and their family are there to celebrate the said event. 

My little David went home from school and says that his teacher told him that he reads very well. He is in 2nd place right now but he needs to behave in school. I would say that he is good academically but I really don't know what to do with his playfulness. He cannot stay in one place and his body keeps on moving. He is very hyper. I've heard about ADHD before. I hope he doesn't have that kind of disorder. I told my husband to lengthen his patience with him. Me too I am trying to control my temper. I find it really frustrating most of the time. 

My son David keeps on asking me to buy him a beyblade. His kuya RA have one that is why he also wants to get his own. He wants to fight with him using his own beyblade. He said it cost P600 and he would always tell me if we have P1k maybe we can get him one. But actually he wanted to have 5 he said. hehehe. Only if I have budget.... I can see the excitement in his face every time he ask me to buy one. I will try to save to be able to get his request. Sometimes I think of it as a waste of money. Buying expensive toys is not on my budget list. But then seeing my kid happy changes my mind.

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TABASCO® Original Red. All opinions are 100% mine.

Many of us enjoy and love eating. Some people even make it as a hobby. All of us have our own favorite food but for me as long as it's hot and spicy definitely it would be something perfect. I am able to eat more and enjoy the food much better if it's sizzling hot. That is why I really enjoy TABASCO® Original Red on most meal that I have. I like it best on fried food like chicken, hotdog, pork chop, egg and even fish. Since Super Bowl is just around the corner, having pizza with Tabasco will make watching the game more exciting. The taste of Tabasco will awaken your senses. What makes Tabasco special is that it's "so much more than hot." It enhances the flavor of every food and makes you crave for more. It's like magic.

I used to cook chili finger with cheese or some call it dynamite. I guess it would be more yummy if I would add Tabasco when I saute the ground pork. It looks like the picture below.

I saute the ground pork and put it inside the chili and add cheese on top and then wrap it with lumpia wrapper and then fry it.

Here is the finished product. Isn't it adorable? If you really love hot and spicy food like me you would definitely like this.

I just noticed this last Sunday. On our way to church I saw egg lice on Rhaine's hair, eeeew. Then while moving her hair I saw a big mother lice crawling, urgh! Confirmed she got 'kuto.' aw! I remember when I was a kid I used to have lots of head lice too. We are living in the province then and during those days most of the kids activities are outdoors. I believe you can get lice if you are always under the sun. 

I don't know where she got it because she doesn't play outside the house. What's weird is his brother who always plays outside doesn't have it. What's worse is that I have lice too. waaa!!!! I thought its dandruff that's causing itch on my head but NO it's those parasite. I hope I will be able to get rid of them as soon as possible before they spread. 

Its not a good start for my little David to welcome 2011. He was infected by conjunctivitis or commonly known as 'sore eyes.' We saw the symptom on the night of December 30. I noticed that his left eye is quite reddish then before I go to work. Then on new year's eve it got worsen. We brought him to his pedia on January 2 and he was given Fusidic Acid. It like an ointment that you drop in the eye twice a day. I find it expensive, I bought from Watson for P415, argh! He was not able to go to school this Monday because of that. I hope he gets well soon so that he can go back to school and cope up with their new lesson.

Rhaine Danielle is 1year and 5 months old. She has this favorite yellow pacifier. I tried giving her other pacifier but she doesn't like. She just threw them away. She used this yellow pacifier when she's sleepy or if she wake up suddenly while sleeping. I find this very helpful, without it we are having a hard time putting her to sleep. But then a few days ago I saw the side of the pacifier already has cut on it. I guess because she was biting it. I am afraid that she might swallow it if it falls off. I think its time for her to get rid of it and use a different one. My husband cut the end of the pacifier so that she can no longer use it. We give her a new pink pacifier but she doesn't feel like using it. She would still attempt using the old pacifier but then she cannot use it at all. I don't know what will happen in the next few days. If she would accept the new pacifier or it is us who will deal with this problem. Last night before going to work she fall asleep while sitting on my lap. I hope she will not have a lot of tantrums because of the lost of her favorite pacifier.

Last year David was not able to wake up on Christmas eve. This time I asked him to sleep in the afternoon so that he can wake up at 12am to open his gifts. He is excited to open the gift from Mamu (his grandma). I can't remember how many times he asked me to open his gifts before 12 midnight but I told him to wait. At 12am I tried to wake him up. At first he was not responding and I am afraid that he might cry because of waking up early. But when I show him his gifts he stood up right away. He first open gifts from Tita Weng, he got a sando and t-shirt with Cars design. Then he opened Mamu's gift, a remote control car. With a big smile he wanted to play with his new car. I asked him to eat spaghetti and we played with his new toy outside the house. I can see the happiness in his smile and in his eyes. He even told me to buy batteries once it stopped working. 

I am proud to say that David is the first honor in their class. He is kindergarten by the way. Its only 3rd grading so there is 1 quarter more to maintain his grades and be the top student. I would be very happy if I would put medal during his graduation. One thing that concerns me though is his clumsiness. He can't stay in one place, he would always jump, run, always moving around. He's good when it comes to academics, most of his exam he only have one to three mistakes. His teacher told my husband that David is quiet but yet really clumsy. Haaaysss... I hope he would change as he grow up.
