$5 A Bag Book Sale?! What!?

The Owensboro had an event last Saturday. $5 a bag, any size bag, used book sale! Yes, it's real. I thought I was dreaming when I heard about it too. My Mom's friend Katrina sent the ad to me thru MMS, and I'm so glad I had my 4G on at that time -- I normally have it off, unless I just really want to check something on the internet when we don't have wifi.

It was from 9am-3pm, and I there at 2:30pm. Why? Because there were important stuff happening that morning, and then we were out of gas and then *hyperventilates*

ANYWAY, we got there with 30 minutes to make it. I told Kyle, "If I don't get more than 6 books, we're not buying."

Baby Llyr's 1st haircut!

May 3, 2016, Llyr's 19months and he finally gets his first haircut.

The Filipino-style 1st haircut would have been a buzzcut, but Americans do it differently. Noooo, they would not let me. They love baby curls A LOT. Haha. I really wanted Llyr to be like a Shaolin baby, maybe when he's 2 or 3 then.

^{Anyway he did NOT like getting a haircut. Mind you we went there prepared; snacks, toys, drinks, you name it Lola and I have it.}

1 Month

Oh wow it's been a month since we moved to the US. It feels like it's been so fast. The days went by crazily quick. Probably it feels like so since I've also been watching how my son just suddenly grew so big o~o

I need a downtime ;~; with everything so quick I actually feel like I'm losing time.

So much back log on reading, blogging, unpacking (yeah 2 bags left unpacked), laundry, vacuuming, organizing, like WAAAAAH @_@

I miss my family so much, I miss the food, I miss the humidity too! I don't feel so homesick though since we have skype, and also since my in-laws are just taking care of us so nicely.

No complaints (except the car seat law which makes Llyr so mad everytime, and the fact that to go anywhere I would need to drive ;~;)

PARENTING

I have taken my Professor's advice about letting time have my emotions die down a bit before writing stuff down. So that when you read back on it -- it's less yucky, and tormenting. Having a clearer perspective on something that you are subjective about so you can be objective about it.

My husband and I (I finally got used to saying this without cringing xD) -- 

attended a parenting seminar.

Happy 8 Months Baby Kristofer Llyr

It's so fast!

Whenever I played Sims 3 (a lot) I was always so bored at the unmoving potato on the crib until it magically transforms into a toddler! Holy gosh that escalated quickly!

So on to the actual post.

It's MAY!

SO remember my last post about my New Year's resolution. It was broken the next day. xD; I kind of didn't start my year of writing quite well. I've been in a writing stump for 6 years or so now. I really wanted this blog to have me write more, but I guess I have unfinished business in my early years. Anyway, as I try to overcome that hurdle, I bring good news! I officially have a VISA interview schedule now! Woots!! Please continue praying for my VISA so that I can settle down with my family in the US. Of course, I would be honest and say, I don't really want to leave. Who wants to leave family right? But I know God has a plan for me, Kyle and I were picked for each other for a reason. There are a lot of great opportunities set out for me because His plans are always the best. This blog post officially starts "God's Plan for MY Year." I claim it. I receive it. In Jesus' name! Yes, I will find a regular time to blog from now on. "Not to Write, for many of us, is to die." Ray Bradbury, Zen of the Art of Writing

Early New Year's Resolution

Oh gosh, when was the last time I've blogged? I don't even remember. There's so much I had wanted to say but I haven't had the time to post.

Early New Year's Resolution:
Blog once a week.

Too much? I think it'd be good for my brain. ★(･ิ ･ิ〃)

Soooo baby update!!
Baby's almost 3months and he's now 60cm in length and 6.2kg in weight!! My Ninang Pedia said I've done a good job so far. *squeee* He was 4.9kg last month so he's gained weight well.

I now have a heavy baby boy but he's cute and healthy!!



Look at him!!!



Don't you wanna pinch those cheeks?



Bubbles!!
