Wanting to blog again!

It has been a year since my last post. I miss writing, posting and sharing..... Hope I can post updates soon! ;-)

1st Three Birthdays

My babies are almost 4 months old already. How time flies!

Here are pictures from their 1st three monthsaries.

Yellow and Pink

Since the twins' baptism is over, I can post the invite already. Napraning kasi ako baka may magkidnap sa babies ko.

I really had no theme. Parang motif lang. Colors were yellow and pink (like our wedding) and the patterns damask and polka dots. I didn't want something baby-ish so I opted for a classic and feminine feel.

Below you can see the final products for the invite, thank you tags and thank you cards.



I had no time to design the tarp anymore. Fortunately, my brother in law and his fiancee offered to sponsor this item. I love the finished product so much!!!

Labor of Love

I'm so excited for my twins' baptism!

I finally finished the map. Yahoo!

Save the date! ;-)

The twins' baptism was originally scheduled to happen in March since we are waiting for my aunt who is based in Saudi. However, her annual vacation was moved to end April or early May. The twins would be about 6 months old already by then and so we didn't want to delay it until that time. Hubby and I then decided to have them baptized this January.

We want a simple celebration only since we are planning on splurging on their 1st birthday celebration.

We have the church and reception venues already. I still have to make the invites and thank you cards, find a cake supplier, fix the giveaways, buy ceremony and reception dresses.

I was able to send out the save the date to some people already. I found my inspiration at a multiply site.

Yehey, no diabetes!

One of the things that I least liked about my pregnancy was that I developed gestational diabetes. I had to monitor my glucose levels three times a day and then I also had to inject insulin twice a day. I hated pricking and having to administer the insulin by myself.

I took the OGTT last Monday (I was about 7 weeks post op) and got the results yesterday. Thank God I'm cleared of diabetes!!! Yahoo!!! Praise God!!! My OB told me that I would have to retake the OGTT every 3 years just to make sure.

Yehey, I can eat anything again!!! Woohoo!!! Hehehehe...

Chicken and Pork Adobo with Egg

This is the first time ever that I cooked this dish. Hindi talaga ako mahilig magluto. I just try sometimes depending on my mood. Since we don't have a cook now, napipilitan ako magluto pero for dinner lang hahaha. Please excuse the picture as I took it with my cellphone. Plus I'm not so exact with the measurements.

My inspiration for this can be found at this site.

Ingredients:
1 kg of pork and chicken
2 cups water
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup vinegar
garlic
onion
boiled egg
pepper
sugar

Directions:
1) I cooked the pork first to make sure that it will be tender.
2) Once the pork is tender, add water, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic onion and pepper.
3) Set to boil but do not stir until it starts to boil to ensure that the vinegar will be cooked.
4) Add chicken and cook until meat is done.
5) Let it simmer.
6) Mix in sugar depending on preferred taste.

Hubby liked naman my version of adobo.
