Have a Great Weekend Everyone!

My little boy and my baby girl sitting in the back seat on the way to the movie theater. I just want to share this pictures with you guys and I'll be back later for more picture sharing.

Home at Last

It was a big long line of car today when I pick up my daughter at school. I have to stay on the line because my son, he doesn't want me to park. He said that i don't want you to park mommy because it so hot out there to wait for Mia and it takes forever hehehee. He was crying yesterday because I park the car and we walk to pick up my daughter he said he its so hot and his so sweaty already he doesn't like it.

Gosh my boy can complain all day. Anyway I better start making dinner now I'll be back later.

My Little Big Boy

Our son want us to call him little big boy! Not little boy, not big boy but "little big boy".He is so funny right now his been really good to me we have our school time 3hours a day and so far he obeys me. He can write his first name now and he so proud of it, every time he write his name he will show it to his dad. Today is early release day at my daughter's school so I need to be there around 1:45pm.

My girl is always excited to go to school everyday. The only problem I have with her is she don't want to go to bed early. She's good on getting up in the morning though she don't complain, when I say Mia get up she will get up right away with no fight. It's total opposite on my boy he cry almost every morning when I wake him up he would say I'm still tired mommy I want to sleep more. My goodness kids hehehee!

Goodnight

Hello friends thank you once again for visiting me here today. I need to cut my grass it's really getting long the repair center didn't call us until now. Its been two weeks now since we send it for repair and we did not hear anything from them. I need to call them tomorrow and find out what's going on.

I need to go to bed now because you know tomorrow is a school day gotta get up early to make breakfast for the kids. Besides my son don't want to go to bed without me, so I better put him to bed now I don't want him to be cranky when he gets up in the morning. Okay guys have a great night to all of you.

Scrub my Nose

I been having problem with blackheads on the top of my nose and I can’t find a solutions for it. I was reading all this suggestions on how to remove blackheads one thing I try is to steam my nose and pinch it with a towel, will it did work but there’s a big but hehehehe! I think I over pinch it that the next day my nose was full of scratch and it looks really bad. Some people probably think that I scrub my nose to death hahahaaaa. I just hope that I can find the best blackhead remover.

Office Visit

The kids and I visit hubby on his office one day, I thought he only have small tiny office. But I was wrong his office was big you can even put a bed in it. He also have office furniture, I told him to buy a small microwave and refrigerator so that way he can keep drinks there and heat up foods. I feel bad because he keeps going to the soda machine to get drinks, where he can just buy a small refrigerator he got plenty of space to put it. I’ll just wait I know one day he will get tired on going up and down on the elevator. Lol!

Wishing and Hoping

I don’t know if some of you already have plan for this coming holiday season. I know some of my friends already plan to go to the Philippines to spend Christmas with their family. I wish I can do the same I really miss my family there. I’m sure we can’t go there this year, our budget is kind a tight right now. Plus the airplane ticket is so expensive. My sister already ordered Christmas invitations because she thought that I’m going to visit them on Christmas. Will maybe next year we can visit Philippines again.

First Day of School

Here's a picture of my daughter on her first day of school. She was so excited but when we introduce her to her teacher she was acting so shy. That's our Mia so shy at first.

In the parking lot with daddy and ian


Mia and Becky her classmate since kindergarten

Second day of school with little brother Ian.

Internet is Back

Finally after two days Internet is back! I was so upset and bored for two days my gosh I got nothing to do but keep watching the news, rain and wind outside the house. Tropical storm Fay surely bring lots of rain in Florida. Right now there are still so many people that doesn't have any electricity, tropical storm fay knock down so many power lines and trees.

Hubby work in a power company here and now he has to work even it's Saturday, he suppose to work the whole weekend and last night he got home like after 9pm. After he eat his back in the computer and when he go to bed around 11pm he got another phone call, so he has to get up and fix something again in the computer. poor hubby didn't get to bed until 1am. Today he went to work at 6am I don't know what time he will be home tonight (hope not late), the kids have to ask me why daddy have to work in the weekend. Will I guess we don't have any choice. Thank you all for visiting me here and for all my EC dropper thank you very much.

No Sun

The tropical storm fay is heading this way and we already feel the wind and it's been raining all day. I have two kids at home right now because there's no class until tomorrow. Hubby still at work their busy trying to get everything running before the storm gets here.

My son is so funny he is walking around the house with his flashlight, he said that he need to be ready when the storm gets here. Last night he was sleeping with the big flashlight. Anyway I hope you guys have a great and sunny day because right now Mr.sun did not come out here at north Florida.

Wire and Steel

I remember back before we had kids, we used to have a lot of reptiles and every morning I had to feed them. The little lizards and the turtles were so cute. We also had big water monitor lizards and my hubby used to make their cages using a woven wire so they couldn’t escape, but they could breathe & feel secure. Are you looking for a steel woven wire? You have to visit Petro Wire & Steel. They are the premier stainless steel supplier based in Houston, Texas. They have so many customers that keep coming back to order more due to their great prices & exceptional quality. They also offer custom fabrication on all their products including custom woven or welded wire cloth and more.

Good Morning Everyone!

Hello friends and bloggers good morning. I wake up so early but my eyes is telling me to go back to sleep. It's school day once again I can't be late at school, yesterday was okay because hubby was home and he come with us to school. Today I'm on my own and the reason why I want to get out in the house early, so the traffic won't be that bad.

My daughter was so excited on her first day of school. She love it! all her friends is still her classmates this year. When we pick her up she told me that there's a home work on her bag, but not for her its for me. Great I already have a home work heheheee! It was just a student information and emergency contact forms. I have to make breakfast for my kids now. I'll be back later and show you a picture of her yesterday.

Custom Photo Cards

Christmas is almost here, I’m planning to give out Christmas card this year that is something nice. My plan is to have a family photo and send it to our families. Like a Holiday Photo Cards. I can get it from photoaffections.com. It’s cheap and very affordable. I love all the design of their cards and I have to talk to hubby and show him this website.

The Kids Are Having Fun Drawing

Here I am sitting in front of my laptop again. I actually watching my kids trying to draw a shark and the boy is so funny because he keep saying that his shark is better compare to his sister. I will take a picture of their drawing and I will put it here and you will be the judge. Take note both of them work really hard to do this hehehe!

Hubby is outside right now watching the people working on our screen room. Their almost done, Thank god. Good thing there's no rain for the past couple days.
Have a nice Saturday friends!

Here's Ian's Shark



Mia's Shark

Manicure & Pedicure

I remember before that every weekend my sisters and I have our manicure and pedicure done for only 20pesos. Now That I live here in America I have to do it all by myself because over here is so expensive. I want to buy this Rubis Cuticle and Nail Scissors it looks nice and the price is so affordable. I bought so many cuticle removers before and they don’t last long. Anyway I hope one day I can join my sisters again, I really miss our bonding time.

Have a Good Night

It's Friday night and I'm happy because I don't need to get up early tomorrow. I'm just doing my EC drop right now nothing else to do at the moment. We just finish watching a movie and my little boy fall asleep. My girl is ready for bed now she got all her stuff toy that she bring with her in the bed which is, stuff snake, Dolphin,unicorn.

Right now is like a quiet time for me and hubby because the kids is in bed. I'm just finishing this post so I can watch another movie with my hubby. Anyway have a wonderful night everyone and enjoy your weekend!

My 2nd Grader

My girl is so excited for going back to school on Monday. She already try the clothes she want to wear on Monday. This is the first time that my hubby will come with us on a first day of school. He take a day off because it's also our 10Th year wedding anniversary.

Here's some picture of my girl that I will share it with you. About my boy I'm happy for him because he finally got the courage to start writing his name. Now he can write his first name next we have to work on the last name. At least he start listening on mommy.

She want to wear this on the first day of school!

Raining All Day Again

What a day The satellite people come today to put our satellite back in the roof, but the rain start pouring again before they can even climb up to the roof. Now we have to reschedule, they won't be back till Tuesday.

Also the people that suppose to work on the screen room didn't come back today because of the rain. But they call hubby today and tell him they'll be here early in the morning tomorrow. I just hope that all of this work will be done soon so I can go out in the house before Monday.

ShoeMall coupon code

I have to stop going to the store almost every other day for every little things because I have to save some money for gas. We know how expensive the gas now. What we do is that we go shopping for everything we need for two weeks so that way we don’t keep coming back to the store just to pick up couple things. I also cut down on shopping for clothes I know that would save us some more money. I only buy on sale stuff or if I have some coupons. You know that you can get coupons now online? I know some people don’t like using coupons but coupons can really help you. The last time I bought new clothes for my daughter I save $60 because of coupons.

I’m doing this because every time we go to the store just to buy a milk we end up getting other stuff like DVD, toys, clothes and other things that we really don’t need for a moment. So now I also start searching for a place where I can get coupons. Like ShoeMall coupon code I get a 50% off on my shoes. That’s not bad half off, if you want to save some money visit savings.com so you can start saving some money like me.

No Connection

My gosh I was so mad today when I lost my internet connection. It started with a big storm and a very strong wind, and then next was my internet connection was gone. So I thought maybe will come back in a few minutes but minutes went by still no connection and I have some task that need to be submitted. Until 2hours still no connection so I finally decided to call Comcast and find out how long it will take for them to fix the problem.

Then I get so upset because I have to wait in the phone for 30minutes to speak to somebody and he just said that he can't help me because their system is also down. What the ***** I stay on the phone for so long and I get nothing. finally after over 5hours of waiting the connection is back, it was not fun at all waiting that long. Okay guys gotta go to bed now thank you and have a good night everyone!

I'm so tired waiting for my connection to come back and now I want to go to bed.

So Sweet

I been telling hubby that I want a new chandelier for the formal dining and I didn’t expect that he would come home with the chandelier. Because he already bought me a chandelier for our breakfast nook. I told him that I can wait for the formal dining because he just bought me one for breakfast nook, but instead he surprises me with another one for our formal dining. Thank you honey you’re so sweet!

Right now we have people working on our screen room I hope they finish it today. So I can have a break with the noise. This is a screen room but it’s also a sun room, later on we eventually turn it into a sun room. All we need to do is add the glass window, that way we still can enjoy the place even its winter. Thank you all for the visit and have a happy Tuesday.

Have a Wonderful Weekend Everyone!

I would like to say thank you to all of you who drop by in my blog. Wishing you all have a wonderful weekend with your family. I have to put the kids to bed now its getting late for them, after that I have to go back here to finish all my pending task.

Good Night My Friends online and offline!

Rainy Days

After I complain about how hot it is in Florida, now its been raining for couple days. I like it though because it cools everything down, I love rain as long as I'm inside the house. But when I go to the store or do something outside, I don't like it when it rains its scare me out especially when there's lightning. Over here in Florida lightning is very scary they hit straight down, unlike in the Philippines you can see lightning scattered in the sky not hitting down the ground.

I remember growing up in the Philippines, it was really lots of fun. When it rains my sisters and I will get so excited, because we can run around and play in the rain and in the puddles until our fingers start to wrinkles because we're getting really cold. Over here in Florida you can't do that because of the lightning its so dangerous.

Water Falls in our village in the Philippines every time it rains the water turn into brown.

Have Enough

I think I have enough blogging for today! I need to give myself a break now. I need to get ready for bed since its getting late, my kids are sleeping already and hubby is also getting ready to bed.I will be back tomorrow, for now I have to recharge my brain.Lol!
Okay friends good night, good morning to all of you.

Mia and Ian want their picture on my blog! So when they wake up in the morning this is my surprise for them. I have this picture before they go to bed.

Need to Lose Some Weight

It seems like no matter what I do, I don’t lose any weight I try eating less but it’s not working on me. After I bought a treadmill so I can run around and still not losing any weight. I heard about Leptitrex, I was reading a review about it and so many people saying that they lose lots of weight within a couple of weeks. Wow I have to check this one out and see if it works for me.

New Briefcase

I am looking for a new computer briefcase for hubby, because the one that his using now is getting old. And I like the Johnston and Murphy
Slimline Flap Brief, because it looks perfect for him and not to heavy to carry. Hubby has to walk about 3 blocks to his office and he needed a bag that is not too heavy to carry around.

Peanuts

I have like two bags of peanuts in my pantry and I have nothing to do so I make a fried peanuts and it taste good. It's just like a peanut that i use to eat in the Philippines, Now if you want some just let me know I have a lots of extra in here just for you. I'm happy today because I grab some oppss,and it makes my day more productive. Here's some picture of my peanuts.

Package

I keep forgetting to post this, About couple weeks ago I receive a package from my friend Jana in Hawaii. I was so surprise because I didn't expect that she's sending me some goodies. My whole family enjoy all the chocolates with macadamia nuts. To Jana, thank you very much for the yummy chocolate and most of all thank you for the friendship I really appreciate it.

Banking

My sister and her husband is planning on opening a Checking Accounts, one is for their joint account the other one for their business. I think that is a good idea that they open a joint bank account. In case some of you doesn’t know, most of the people in the Philippines especially the one who live in a small villages they don’t have bank accounts. Even some people have money, they still choose to keep their money in an old way.

Here's The Picture!

Good morning my friends, I finally download my picture to my computer and as I promise on my last post I will share some photos that I take after I clean up the bathroom. anyway it is so hot out again out there today, I hate it when the weather is like this because we can't do anything like outdoor activity with the kids it just too hot for the. It's okay in a few months its going to cool down again so I guess we have to deal with this heat for awhile.

Kids Bathroom,I think I did a good job cleaning it ha!Lol! The reason why the color of this bathroom is pink and blue, its because my girl like pink and the boy like blue. So there's no fight I put both color....



Master's bathroom!

Going Night Night

I have to download the picture tomorrow, right now I really need to go to bed. My back is killing me, for working hard today not only I clean inside the house but i also clean our porch.People will be working in there tomorrow putting up our screen room. Okay guys see you all tomorrow need to go to dream land now.

I’m happy for her she need a break from work, and she told me she will be playing casino, I said good luck hope she win some money. Also she’s excited because she will be meeting 2 of her sisters from California, she said that her sisters is been searching for vegas hotels last week and finally they have a room ready when she arrive there.

Remembering!

I can’t believe that is over a year now since my friend’s father died. He was 95 years old. I feel so bad because my friend and I were so close and every time she visit me she always bring her dad with her. One day when I visit my friend I was wondering why she is caring this black bag when I ask her what it is, she said it’s portable oxygen concentrator for her dad because he can’t walk too much anymore because he start breathing really hard, that’s why he needed the portable oxygen. Anyway, I know where ever he is now his in a better place with god.

Cleaning Day

Hello my friends how are you today? For me here so tired. I was cleaning the bathrooms today and it take me all day to clean it. If you are wondering why it take me all day to clean a 2 bathroom, its because first kids bathroom is really a mess I also have to change the shower curtain and scrub everything.

After that I have to take a little break and make lunch for the kiddos. After eating lunch I start cleaning my bathroom, and my bathroom is a lot bigger than the kids bathroom. I have to scrub the garden tub,shower room, my sink and counter top and hubby's sink and counter top plus toilet room. I'm so tired but its okay cuz both bathroom is clean now. show you some pictures later.

Not Feeling Good

I don't know what's going on both of my kids have diarrhea, I call the doctor today and they say it some kind of virus is going around right now. Good thing they don't have any other symptoms, they even run around in the house all day. And right now both of them screaming in my room just jumping on my bed. I have to go to bed now gotta get up early tomorrow to make hubby's lunch. Good night my friends and I'll be dropping again tomorrow.

My Baby Girl

My daughter is really getting big, I think in a couple of years she's going to be taller than her mommy. I miss when she is so little, we go swimming on the lake before she was a baby and she never complain about the cold water. I have some picture of her on her pink swimsuit.





This is my little girl now! Not so little anymore..

My Camcorder!

Two more weeks and school will start again, my daughter is so excited to be in 2nd grade. I’m happy for her because she loves the vacation we have, at least she got out in the house before going back to school. I hear that most of her friends didn’t even have a vacation just stay at home the whole time. I was mad at myself because I didn’t even have a video on our vacation because the old lady forgot to grab the camcorder in the counter. Anyway good thing I have my camera for picture taking.


Hubby and Daughter

Old TV

Yesterday the kids want to play game on the family room and hubby told them no because he was watching movie on it. So hubby let them play in the living room, but the kids complain because the TV there is so old like 15 years old ha-ha! In fairness to that TV still work really well. The kids just so spoiled with the big plasma TV. I ask hubby if he can get us a 32inch LCD TV on that room, he said ok but when we have the money to buy it. I guess that’s okay right?

Cruising

I was thinking about next time maybe we can take a cruise vacation and visit the Caribbean and Bahamas. I have never gone on a cruise before, so maybe in the near future my family and I can go on a cruise vacation. My friend and her husband have gone on honeymoon cruises and they love it. I don’t know when we can go on another vacation yet, we need to start saving up some money first.

My First Horse Ride

My grandparents have a few horses before I was growing up and my favorite one was the white horse. But I never get the chance to ride on that horse because it died, I was wondering before why most of the horse in our village is so skinny and have a big stomach.

I think they have worm inside them because they don’t have any horse supplements. The horse only rely on the grass that they eat poor horses. My first horse ride is with my friend they have a horse and she ask me to have a ride with her around the village, we ride that horse with no padding’s only towel. That ride didn’t really last long because my butt start hurting bad hahahah!

Clean Up

Clean up time for me my kids make enough mess for me so I need to get both of that room straight up. My boy like to take all his toys out in the toy box and drag it all over the room and that make me crazy hehehe just kidding! but yes it can be very hard to keep picking up toys and not even a minute they do it again. will its a kid it's their job to keep mommy busy.

Now both of them are playing super mario game, so this is the best time to clean. I have to keep going on my cleaning before they run back in there.

Hello and Good Morning

Hello happy Sunday to all! I start my day with blogging here heeheee. Anyway kid's are done eating, you can't believe what my little boy ask me to make him for breakfast its ramen noodles with eggs. You might find it weird but we can't do nothing about it,because that's his favorite food he can eat two bowls of ramen noodles.

My little boy is so crazy about his zebra stuff toy he carry it around all the time, he sleep with it too. The funny thing is that he name his zebra giraffy, he will go nuts if he can't find his giraffy. Okay guys I have to wash dishes now. Be back in awhile!!!

What a Day

Seems like the day went by so fast today. After a little blogging hubby want us to come with him to pay the boat storage today and after paying we went shopping and come home. Now it's late already time to go to sleep again and finish blogging tomorrow. Anyway thank you all for stopping by here today I really appreciate it.

Just want everybody to know that my baby girl is feeling a little better already fever is gone just a little diarrhea, other than that she's okay. Have a good night everyone and sweet dreams!!!

Florida Saltwater Fishing Laws

In Florida while fishing, I have witnessed many amateur anglers fishing from piers, docks, the shoreline and even from boats keep fish that were, without a doubt, too small or they keep more than their share under Florida law. In my opinion there are far more anglers that do not know the law than are the ones that know it, but just don't care. These days, there is much more that you need to know about fishing than tossing a line in the water with some bait at the end.

First, I'd like to talk briefly talk about the history and why there are size and bag limits in Florida and many other states today, as well as Federal laws to govern fishing outside of the 3-mile zone along our coast. I have been saltwater fishing in Florida for more than 35 years. The height of the fishing for me occurred in the 1970's and early 1980's. Fish were abundant and you could catch as many as you want of any size you want. Unfortunately, this period was short lived. By the end of the 1980's and into the 1990's, many species of fish that were once abundant, bacame rare catches. Kingfish (King Mackerel), Redfish (Red Drum) and Snook to name a few almost disappeared. I remember, on every deep sea fishing trip, I would bring home 6 to 10 big Kingfish. Gradually, the number and size diminished until catching a single medium king was an accomplishment. Then Florida, seeing what was happening to our fish populations, enacted two pieces of legislation. They banned gill net fishing and created limits to the size and number of fish that could be kept by species.

Size Limits: Size limits are in effect that regulate the size of the fish that you can keep to place on the dinner table. There are two basic types of size limits, minimum length and slot. Minimum length limits regulate the minimum size of a fish. These can range from a Lane Snapper that must be 8 inches in length or more to a Blue Marlon that must be a minimum of 99 inches. Slot fish are those that must be longer than the minimum length and shorter than the maximum length. One example is the Redfish (Red Drum)that must be not less than 18 inches and not more than 27 inches. Measuring fish is a little tricky as well. Depending on the species, you will be required to measure the fish from the head to the tail or from the head to the fork of the tail.

Bag Limits: Bag limits regulate the number of fish that you are permitted to keep by species. Some species, like the Spanish Mackerel, have large bag limits (15 per person per day), where the King Mackerel (Kingfish) have small bag limits (2 per person per day).

Then there are species that are illegal to harvest at any size. One example is the Goliath Grouper, the largest of the groupers that can easily go over 500 pounds.

It is wise to learn, understand and obey these regulations as the fines can be severe. In extreme cases, they may even confiscate your fishing gear, vehicle and/or boat. By obeying these regulationms, you are also doing your part to ensure that there will be fish to catch well into the future. Your children will appreciate your efforts in giving them the chance to catch fish. Please chack your states fishing laws before you go on your next fishing trip. To learn more about Florida regulations, check out this link, Florida Fishing Regulations Chart.

Have a Nice Weekend

It's weekend again! I don't know what we're going to do this weekend yet. We need to go to our boat in the storage place it's been awhile now since the last time we went boating, that's because we go on vacation and this is the first weekend that we don't have any plans. so we probably go fishing in our boat or canoe, we have enough with the fishing piers.

Right now the trout is biting in the saint johns river, I like those fish they fight good and its really fun to catch. I have a picture of trout that we caught on the river and I would like to share it with you!

My Baby Girl is Sick

Last night before we go to bed hubby notice that our little girl is hot, so I check her temperature and I found out that she have a fever. I give her a medicine she went to sleep. I get up this morning and check if she still have some fever and thank god its gone, but I'm worried because she went bathroom and I can hear she have a diarrhea. I have to keep an eye on her, right now she go back to sleep and if she still having problem when she woke up I have to bring her to see our pediatric doctor.

Have a good day blogging today guys! Thank you for all the visits and please check out my other blog also the Carlsonclanadventure and Catanico.com Thank you in advance
