Things We Wished We Packed Before Giving Birth

It’s a good idea to pack your hospital bag two weeks before your due date because, frankly, you won’t really know when the baby comes. With our baby Atticus, though, our OBGYN in Manila scheduled for me to be induced if he still hasn’t come by the 39th week to prevent him from pooping in…

Things You Should Not Say to a Pregnant Woman

In our pregnancy experience, the baby bump attracted so much unwanted comments. In one of our rants, a friend told us that this tactlessness is a norm. “Expect the worst”, she said, as even more will come when the baby arrives. Within nine months of pregnancy and post-partum, women go through so much changes and…

After getting a couple of recommendations, we finally tried this healthier version of Sisig made with tofu and mushrooms. 🍄 We added a spin to the recipe using whatever is in our fridge and it’s delicious!
Death could not hold You
We’re happy to introduce Philippine animals to Tikoy. We paired his @kidstarter animal cut-outs with the MGA HAYOP SA FILIPINAS book by @adarnahouse . Aside from naming the animals, we also taught him about their natural habitat— water, land and trees.
It’s the first day of April! We’re done with the first quarter of 2021, and our Tikoy is turning four soon! It seems like yesterday when we first announced that we were expecting! :)
We've been joining home improvement groups lately and have encountered good reviews about @scrubdaddyph . Their product design made us very curious. Finally, we got hold of their cleaning materials and have used them for weeks now. We're currently writing a full review, but for now, we can honestly say that this is an excellent addition to your kitchen and bathrooms! We've tried the following products:
Non-pros like me can say goodbye to our liner woes because @heyluxxlash ‘s Clear Liner is here! It's a foolproof beauty secret that gives you freedom from mistakes for fuller, fresher lashes (to achieve that natural look) in no time!
Weekend project of Daddy and Tikoy. Expansion set of @ikea Lillabo trains. 🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃
"Mommy, you look like a stand fan!" -Tikoy. 😂🤷‍♀️
We’re on a @brookeligertwood binge and Something in the Water is our current LSS. 🌊
We’re happy to share these new and exciting products from @tinybudsbaby and @buds.and.blooms.moms
It was quite a challenge to teach numbers to Tikoy. He took some time to figure out the symbols, so we focused on the counting and ensuring that numbers make sense to him.
Last week, @sessiongroceries had a vegetable sale to support farmers in the North. We got this mountain of lettuce for only 69 pesos. If you have a heart to help Filipino farmers, you can download their app and order fruits and vegetables from them.
A working mom and a stay at home mom are both full-time mothers. But with moms working from home now, it’s hard to tell the difference. Tikoy and I are always grateful for Abi’s kindness to us even though she feels like she’s raising two boys sometimes.
Our version of tofu katsudon! We got the recipe from @pepper.ph
Tikoy: Daddy, what do you call the tip of the shoe lace?
