I gained several pounds after getting married. I can’t blame pregnancy alone. I gained extra 5 pounds long before I got pregnant with Mikee. I must admit I was (and still am, I guess) hesitant to shop for clothes just because I don’t want to admit I am now on another size bracket. I insist on wearing my old jeans, and sometimes actually get away with it. (Although for formal dresses and gowns, I use corsets.) I have shied away from stores I used to frequent when I was still single.

But this weekend, probably due to fasting, I am now just 10 pounds away from my ideal weight. Ain’t that something?

We’re back! Just in time for Easter.

Mikee and I had a great bonding time this weekend (not so much for hubby. He had to work Thursday and Friday). We, most of the time, did nothing. But that’s the beauty of a vacation, right? I was able to relax (although I must admit I checked my personal mails and blogs a couple of times).

And this morning, after hearing mass, we went to the mall. We ate our lunch and shopped for some baby clothes too. (Hey, Mikee is still a baby! Well, at least for me. )We went to a gaming area where Mikee and I rode a (micro)mini-ferris wheel while daddy shoot some hoops, answered trivias and fire some (of course, toy) guns. Don’t worry, by this time, Mikee was fast asleep, she didn’t see the gory scene on screen.

Gosh, I’m going back to work again tomorrow. Back to reality. Tsk. Tsk.

Happy Easter!!!

My mom is in the hospital. She was rushed for persistent vomiting and headache. Hubby and I went to visit her. I accompanied her to some of her tests. While biding time, we chatted about women stuff (I am tempted to type “girly stuff”… teehee) like skin whitening, herbal tea and diet pills. (My mom is much more of a vain than I am.) She had an MRI and reproductive system work-up. (I was freaking the whole time that four doctors were examining her. It’s awkward enough to be examined by one, you know.) But until now, nothing can be found yet. I guess my mom, like me, just wanted a break.
