Preparing his Second Birthday Party

It's the time of the year again, where we celebrate two birthdays in a day, that's the Husbands and Travis'.

I then made a guide board, thanks to Pinterest,  for making my party planing easier, some may be DIY thanks to youtube.

And since Travis likes Buzz Lightyear. I just focused on it and his colors. 

By now, his turning two, the party wont be that big as the first one, I squeezed my invited to family, relatives and closest friends. Since Travis can play now and understands almost everything that's happening around, I know he will enjoy his special day.

Here's my pinterest board for Travis' second birthday party theme.

Those are my inspirations, I may not have them exactly as shown here, but I'm sure Travis and his invited friends will enjoy the party. And for that I leave it to my party planner, Ms. Roschelle of  Sweet Party Memories. While Kim of SisterArt will be making Travis' cake and Dessert Buffet too. And Aicel of Caketerrific will make cupcakes for guests take home treats, iFlick for photo booth, and Sophia Photography to capture every smiles we all share.

Well, I still have 2 weeks and 6 days to finalize everything! Whew! I can do this! Wish me luck!

Great Sunday everyone! 

Bye, June!

How was your weekend? Hope you all had a great time. My little family goes on a roadtrip to Tagaytay and stayed overnight at Summit Ridge Hotel, where everything was fantastic, the weather, the view and your family with you -- Perfect! 

Since Travis saw horses around, he just have to ride one. Good thing weathers so nice to us. 

Comes, the morning after.

Just before we head home, we won't miss this spot.

And with that ends our (last) weekend of June. 

Now, we should hug July as it comes, and forever be thankful to Him. 

BEST DADDY

Here's my greeting post last year, and today we couldn't thank them all enough. 

Dads are the best! I can attest to that. 

   

Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there!

Five Years and More!

We have forever to spend with, so we're enjoying every second, minute, hours, days of it.

I wanna thank everyone who've been part of US. Especially my best friend / ex-boyfriend and now Husband Jason.

I can count 5 more lifetime with him. Am so blessed.

Weekend in Instagram

Thank God for weekends, that after week long load of work, we still have time to be with my family, that includes Holidays too. 

Happy Independence Philippines! We got a long way to celebrate it. Let's live to it! 

5 < 2

1st Official Haircut was when he turned 1 year old : August 12, 2011

Less a  month later,

September 5, 2011, his second

and comes the third,

October 11, 2011, third time

We tried to let his hair grow thicker, after 3 months..

February 26, 2012, fourth salon visit

then last Sunday, we tried one mall up north, Marqee Mall at Angeles, Pampanga. And saw a kids salon, Travis had his unplanned haircut which made up his 5th visit salon.

Fifth, June 3, 2012. Just before school starts.

Explain further, 5 haircuts in less 2 years. Travis is exactly 1 year, 9 months, 3 weeks and 3 days as of now (while writing this post) and while with those developments, words and everything he does today so is the thickness of his hair, yes, it's not even long (well, kinda) but eventually he got a good combination of his Dad's hair and mine. His Dad got black and almost there thick hair, while I have wavy (got natural curls) and thick hair (it won't show since I have gone some straightening treatment) I don't know if his hair is just normal, in thickness or what. We (the Husband) thought of buying thinning scissors or thinning shears, so we can cut his hair without hearing him cry. We will try, I can't imagine how will be his 6th, 7th, Nth salon visit again without him crying, so that's plan B. 

Hey Mommies, Stylist, Every All, suggestions are very much welcome, will appreciate if you have insights to share with me on what to do. By then, thank you in advance.
