I like taking pictures of lights. I mastered the settings of keeping everything dark except the light area. 🙂 Here are some of the pics:

>Thankful

I am so thankful for all the blessings. September is a month that is full of surprises. First, I got my new Canon Powershot SX120 IS then we got our first car ever!

I am so happy when I got this one. I love taking pictures and this is a perfect piece for me to master my little obsession. hahah
We got our used car and so happy that finally we don’t have a problem in going to different places. Kids are now so relax during travel time.
I am so thankful to God for giving us all the blessings! I am forever grateful.

>In the Hospital

>Last Saturday, I felt the movement of the baby became minimal and I got contractions every hour so I called my OB and she informed me to stay in the hospital. I thought that I will undergo the CS operation soon but when they checked my hemoglobin it was very low. She wanted me to have blood transfusion but sad to say we don’t have a blood donor and no blood available in the blood bank. It’s really frustrating in my part because pain is already everywhere in my body. I had my Demerol to keep me relax and sleep. Well, it helps me sleep but I think Demerol has a bad effect in me. It made me so emotional. I don’t know why but I keep on crying for 2 days and my husband is so worried. He keeps on comforting me but still I can’t control myself. It was so hard. damn!

So waited until Monday then finally we got a 2 packs of Type A blood, I need 3 to 4 packs. So I still need more. My cousin is also donating blood and I am so thankful to him. Today, I just finished my first pack and I hope it will make me feel better. I hope that I am ready for my operation tomorrow. My hands are also aching. I have bandage everywhere. The nurses find it hard to insert the IV’s and extract blood because of my tiny veins. I hate it everytime they need to insert new needle. hay!

My CS operation is scheduled tomorrow (tuesday, August 3) at 7:30 a.m. Please pray that I have a successful operation and I am hoping that I can post more after the operation.
Have a great day everyone!

>Birthday Wish

July 14 is my special day! It was also a day when Typhoon Basyang landed in the Philippines. It was so cold and scary that time. The heavy rain and winds are really disturbing. I was awake the whole time and afraid to sleep. On the next day, most of the Rizal and Metro Manila area had no electricity. Of course, I don’t want to stay at home in a very uncomfortable situation, so we decided to go to Eastwood to watch movie and dine out. I checked my facebook account through mobile and happy to read birthday greetings from friends. 🙂 It simply made me smile… Anyway, 2 days before my birthday, I thought that it will be the first time that I will be celebrating my day without any typhoon because every year I am really used to have typhoon during my special day. Well, for this year I got signal no. 2. 😀

Wish? Wishes?
Hmmmm I don’t have any material wishes this time… I just hope that we will be always healthy. I hope that my baby girl will come out safe and healthy. I hope that my blood sugar will normalize after giving birth. I hope that Gareth will stay healthy and active. I hope that my husband will stay fit and stay as a good father and husband. I hope that our career and business will continue to grow so that we still continue to share our blessings.
I believe that through the help of God, my wishes and hopes will come true soon!
To all those who greeted me, thank you very much!

>Waiting…

>Here I am still waiting for new project….

My long term project was ended last 2 weeks and until now I didn’t get a new full time task. I had a fixed rate project but for a moment it was on hold and I am still waiting for it to resume. I miss working but still I am taking my time to rest. I am worried but still enjoying every moment of it. I just finished applying for a new project and hopefully tomorrow I will receive a response and will start a new project soon. But for now… I am still enjoying my free time.
I am also taking much of my time planning about my business. I just updated my online store for new items and I will be adding more soon. Maybe after giving birth, I will add some branded RTW. I just added kids party lootbags and I am glad that I got more inquiries this time. I hope orders will follow soon. 🙂

>Still here…

>Okay… after a day I posted the last entry I was confined. I had contractions every 30minutes and it was really painful so I told my OB about it and then she did everything to give me enough rest and monitor the condition of the baby.

It’s been a week already and I am doing good. I don’t feel any contractions anymore and this time I am more relaxed. I still have to take medicines for baby’s lung maturity. I hope we will reach August 9 without any more pain so that I can have my CS operation on time.
Lately, I am also worrying too much because I don’t have enough project then I realized that maybe it’s God’s plan so that I can have enough rest and just concentrate on taking care of the baby. Well, I am not used to it but I have to this time. I have to be patient and just follow God’s order.
I am taking things easy right now and hopefully everything will be fine….

>Is this the sign of labor?

>During my first pregnancy I don’t feel any signs of labor because I undergo CS method. Now on my 35th weeks I am experiencing back pain and it has interval already. I don’t know what to expect. I texted my OB and since it’s 2a.m. I don’t expect her to reply. I am just here waiting for her and reading lots of articles about signs of labor.

I am hoping that this is just a false alarm because I am not ready yet. The baby clothes are complete but I still need to wash it. whew!
Pray for me…

>Discomfort

>This month I experienced so many things in my pregnancy. I had diarrhea and got hemorrhoids. It’s really hard to manage it but eventually I did. Then just yesterday I have UTI. It’s really hard and I am crying since it’s so painful everytime I pee. Now I am under medication and so far I feel better. I am also very thankful that I have a supportive husband.

Last Wednesday, I also bought new baby items and so far her items is almost complete! I need new crib and stroller but I can bought it maybe after giving birth. 🙂
