Pierre Castro is Out!



Look at our little boy! Isn't he the cutest? Our dear Castro came out 26th of November around 3:00 in the afternoon. Majal, my sister-in-law did not notice her water bag break that morning. They told me she had dry labor. As in, gasyagit jud daw sa kasakit!hehe He weighed 3.5 kilograms. Cute-cute guid nga baby and perti kabuot-buot. Waay guid gamo. Sige lang sleep. Mahibi lang pag-babath time. More photos here. I can't wait to go home this Christmas.

Welcome to the world, our dear Castro!

For April

Just got back yesterday from a weekend at my parents'/ my hometown. I have adorable photos of my nephew, Castro, but that would have to wait until I finally get to post them. (Oh, I miss him already.)

Anyway, it's 22 days before Christmas! Can you believe that?! I'm crossing my fingers that my company would give us a Christmas bonus. (And yeah, I don't mean the 13th month pay.) I think this year would be my happiest Christmas because we now have our little boy. But it would still be different if I'd have some extra cash to shop for myself and for everybody. (hahaha everybody, huh?) I'm doing this post as per April Joyce's request thus, the title. I could have used 'My Christmas Wishlist' instead but I learned it's not good to advertise your personal needs. So yeah, this is all for April. I'm making this sort of wishlist for her (because she's been asking me what I want for Christmas and that I should make a list where she could choose from..) So, here goes:

1. Black Strappy Platforms

I kind of haven't gotten over the gladiator madness even though
it's so last season. But I'm thinking, a strappy platform would be a safe choice. Well not really as high as the one below but something like it..


2. Black Clamdiggers (edit: black bermuda shorts)

I can wear them to church eventhough they technically are tailored shorts.
(edit: I kinda misused the word. I didn't know what to call them so I'm using clamdiggers. Basta I'm imagining a a knee-length tailored shorts. Whatever you c
all 'em.)

3. White Tailored Shorts

I got one from a thrift shop (I love thrift shops!). I thought it was the perfect pair for me but it's kinda big, I realized.




3. Dark Skinnies

I need to have the perfect dark denims. And yes, I want skinnies.;p




4. Gray Skinnies

I will totally look like a short-legged horse but I don't care.lol

5. Black Tote (either a quilted carry-all or a shoulder/sling bag..the one with chains..)

Hmmm...Micor told me she's getting me a carry-all so maybe a chain slin
g bag will do. I'm thinking a Chanel-esque but not a counterfeit.;P



6. WAYFARERS!!!!

I'm totally obsessing over wayfarers but Raybans are kinda mahal. I found one in Charles & Keith and they are lovely and easy on the pocket, I guess.



7. Black Flats

Yeah, black flats...preferrably pointy..or a Tory Burch-esque will do. =D




I guess that's all I have in mind so far. Or if you still can't figure out what to give me April Joyce, you can never go wrong with black 2-piece bikinis. I love you April!
