The Bitch is now a Mommy!

Sunday, December 14, 2008

This is how my husband told the world our little boy has arrived:

"Entering the court at 2:43pm (12/10/08),
at guard weighing 5.0lbs and measuring 19inches,
wearing jersey #9.9 (apgar),
MAGNUS REX C. NAVARRO"

Poor Ate Vi-os,,,

What's worse than getting into a car accident?!

Getting into a car accident with a missionary!

As we were driving home along the stretch of M-hway, an L200 taking a U-turn from the other side bumped our left rear passenger door. Of course my hubby and I were pissed off. It wasn't our usual route but since it was late already, we thought traffic would be bearable. We should've gone to our shortcut.

The driver of the other vehicle is a missionary. I couldn't totally get mad at him coz he kept on apologizing. It was his fault coz her was trying to avoid the car behind him and ended up bumping us instead. He was also on his way to pick up people from his church to go on caroling.

The church has a talyer raw and they'll fix the damage. He and hubby were texting scheduling a meeting at the talyer. And then he told my husband he'll be including me in their prayer for a safe labor. Wow, I now have additional prayer warriors!

Naku! How can you get mad naman with that?! Sigh! I just hope they do a good job fixing her.

Poor Ate Vi. That's what I call our Vios. She's been to a couple of scratches this year. I hope that's the last of it. I really love that car.

The Tales of Beedle the Bard

Tuesday, December 2, 2008


Remember this book in the seventh book of Harry Potter, The Deathly Hallows? It's suppose to be a collection of short children stories, sort of like our version of fairy tales. It was given to Hermione and explained the history of Deathly Hallows in one of the stories, "The Tale of the Three Brothers".

More than a year ago, J.K. Rowling released seven copies of this book. Six went to special people who are special to her and have made Harry Potter the series a success. The last copy was auctioned off and was sold for more than a million pounds.

Thanks to J.K. Rowling and the owners of the other copies, us muggles can enjoy the book as well! Worldwide release of this book is slated on December 4, 2008.

Power Books accepts pre-orders. I'm asking hubby to make sure I get a copy. I'm hoping I can hold off reading this until I'm on maternity leave. Or maybe I can bring this tn the hospital to keep me distracted during labor. I'm still a Harry Potter fan and I'm still experiencing withdrawal syndrome from the last book. This will also help ease the disappointment of waiting for the next movie.

Will be CONFESSING too!

Yesterday I was with some girlfriends, brother and husband at Eastwood to watch Twilight. I was gushing the whole time at Edward.

Sigh!

I told myself I'd lower my expectations specially since I read the book. I always find the book s better than the movies. I think it's the same this time... I was looking for some parts which, I guess, was deleted for cinematic purposes.

Still, it was a good movie and will be waiting for the next one.

The girls planned a next movie date already for this movie... Confessions of a Shopaholic. Again, read the book already. Although I stopped at the first book because it sort of got out of control when Rebecca Bloomwood (main character) went to Manhattan, had a baby and even got her sister in the book too. Too much!!!



Remember Isla Fisher from Wedding Crashers?! That's her!

MAC Loves Pussy! Meow!

Friday, November 28, 2008


I dedicate this post to one of my BFF's... Wip, who loves everything Hello Kitty. I feel like I'm in a Sanrio shop whenever I ride her car. And since she started her kikay streak... she's loving make up too! A passion I can now share with her aside from shopping.

I was browsing Beauty Snob and found this post! Remember when MAC came out with a Barbie collection? Well, this time MAC will be coming out with a Hello Kitty Collection around February next year. That's in Canada and US. It will probably trickle down here in the Philippines late summer. There will be two collections: Hello Kitty Colour and Hello Kitty Kouture. Full details are still hush-hush for now.

How can you not love this collection?! First of all, it's MAC. I so love MAC. My mom is a huge fan and sources her stash straight from Canada. I just borrow most of her stuff while I try to build my own collection.

Second, it's Hello Kitty?! Even if I've outgrown this lovely pussy, I still gush over anything Hello Kitty! I just don't buy them anymore. I don't think my husband will appreciate sleeping in a room full of pink stuff even if he loves cats. Especially since our baby is a boy.

Lastly, although color is extra funky for my taste, there's some items there I can incorporate in my daily look. A little bit more pink in my cheecks and lips won't be too bad.

My friend Wip said she won't be spending for herself anymore this year... that's good! She can save up for her MAC Hello Kitty Collection for next year.

Let's Save Our Mother

I know I shouldn't be posting this since I'll be giving these bags to some of my friends for Christmas... heehee... but I just had to share these quirky bags that really makes a statement: "Let's take care of Mother Earth"

Yes, plastics are all good, re-usable and everything... but also non-biodegradable. Why can't we learn to bring our own bags ourselves! These bags from Mother Earth are Earth-friendly since their made of canvas and recycled flour sacks. Their sturdy enough to tote your heavy grocery stuff. But don't worry, they don't look like any katsa bags... they have funny quotes and cute designs that will definitely make you want to carry these around.

These are just some of my faves...

recycled flour sacks with embellishments

isn't this the fourth commandment or something?!

love this one!

2009 Havies Collection

My feet are terribly swollen lately that I end up wearing flip flops most of the time... except at work. And now that the 2009 Collection of Havaianas are out already, I'm sooooo tempted to buy again!

But maybe I'll get a pair of Baby Estampas for my little one instead...

Again, for all the Havies addicts out there... get your season's favorites now!
