Bedroom Set


I got an email today that the Bedroom Sets we ordered are due to arrive this weekend. I just ordered them at Spacify.com and I cannot believe how quick they can ship it with no freight charges. Now, I have to rush cleaning the attic because the step daughter wants to move up there for more space. We have been using the attic as storage for the time being. So with the new bedroom set arriving, that goes to the bedroom next to our room for Isabella then the stepdaughter will be using the attic as her bedroom/study area. She will be starting college this fall making the attic her perfect hideaway from noise and clutter of her younger sister.

A Celebration. A Birthday






It was hubby’s birthday last June 28 and to celebrate his birthday we had dinner at Mt. Fuji Steak and Japanese Restaurant. It is a hibachi restaurant where food is cooked right in front of you. The kids suggested the place. We enjoyed the food while the small kids got entertained by the cook as he does tricks while cooking in front of you. For the pricing, I would say it was reasonable because they only charge full price for the adults and $5.00 additional for small kids. Other than the food that you wanted to be cooked, you also enjoy a buffet appetizer consisting of various salads, buffalo wings, spring rolls, teriyaki and a lot more. To me, this is a restaurant perfect for a family celebration. I have some picture to share.

Independence Day 2009

Coach Sale

























It was a madhouse at the coach outlet last Sunday. We were at the coach outlet store in woodbury commons, harriman, new york. It was already packed just two hours after they opened. I was not surprised because there were really some good deals, like 50% off plus another 20% for that day only. Who can beat that, right? I am sure there will be more good deals this 4th of July weekend sale.

Mi Casa Su Casa Calling...

Since my daughter learned how to dial my cell phone (she knows no other number but mine) from our house phone (land line) she has called me 56 times since yesterday. Just for today, she called me 35 times. Complain pa nag-voicemail eh….

I have my house phone as “mi casa su casa” in my phone book. I guess I should change it now to “Mi Unica Hija.”

If you are curious what are her messages, here's some that i can remember:
..."what time is it mom?"...like 15 times
..."i'm awake mom...
..."i'm back mom....(with the step daughter they went to the college)
..."are you driving?"..
..."are you coming home now?"...
..."where's papa?"...
..."i farted!!!!"....ooopss,
..."papa's home"...
..."i miss you mom or ''i really miss you mom" (like all the time...luv' it)
..."i was crying on the bed"...(after i told her to stop calling me for a while cuz i'm doing something)
..."i'm eating popcorn...
