Decisions...

... Turning points

If you could turn back time, would you change anything?

We take decision every waking moments of our life and all that we are, all that we do are outcomes of all the decisions that we took consciously or subconsciously. One small decision we took long time back made what we are today.

Life direction is shaped by all the small choices we make.

Incentive... to drive

Up until now, I haven;t had the chance to go for a learner's knowledge test. Between two kids and a job... I am way too busy to have a moment to sit and study.... But sometimes there are reason that will give you the extra push.

First, I am thinking that Kimi is about to go to school and I can;t imagine taking the bus with a toddler every school day... Look at the amount of time it will take from my day.... :

....but the next incentive is.....
* Look at all the knobs and buttons...
I haven't explored this fully since I just rode this two short trips but I am really amazed at the Navigator system that is built into the system... Garmin GPS is user-friendly but this car's navigator is really state of the art..
...and the radio! It has an option of a satellite radio which you can subscribe and pay for monthly at $15/month, sort of like a cable...on radio
...plus a plug inside for charging

a new car (not mine!) that will be left in the garage waiting for (ahem) me to drive it around... :)* And the next guy to drive in the family :)

What a jeep! Only in da Philippines

Reading chuvaness to update me on everything Manila and here's a cool jeep that she blogged about... Actually thecmain topic was the new store, Kira




Airconditioned...

Look at the seats!!!

Hmm, would love to ride this when i visit. Wonder if this is for rent?

Kenzo @ 4 Months

A more interactive Kenzo this month. The little guys always want someone giving him some attention. He is now using his voice to call attention when he feels a bit neglected.

* Who's sweeter? Can't decide :)

The little guy doesn't just grab people's heart but is finally able to focus on things within his arms length and get things. And boy, what a tight grip he has! A little possessive, aren't we?

* Camera Shy?! NOT!

He is now too big for pampers 1 and he has undergone home trimming several times this month to tame his hair :)

* Military guy. Push up
His favorite pastime is waving both his arms and feet excitedly. He is getting heavier and he is getting bigger and bigger right before our eyes.

* Our little hunk
Don't grow up too fast little one and we love you so much.

Happy 4th Month...

Decor comeback

When Kimi started to walk and discover things, decors that aren't supposed to be touched and might do her harm were hidden...


Now that Kimi can understand, those decors can finally be back to where they were placed :)

I guess everything is finally out in the open again, that is, until Kenzo starts that discovery phase he he!

Just to ease your discomfort...

Poor little Kimi, she still has her cold up until now and everytime she sneezed, Papa or Mama will be there in a wink with a tissue in our hand to wipe her nose...

I know it is hard to sleep with a cold and here in Canada, they don't recommend medicine until your 5 year of age.... So what does a doctor prescribe? Wait it out... Not so easy to do when you see your kid suffering.... So off to the drugstore I go for more items to help ease her discomfort...
