Things Do In Spring That Are Budget-Friendly As a mom, one of my hopes is that my kids will have a wonderful childhood with a lot of fun memories that they will love looking back on when they're older. And every time the season changes, I see it as a huge opportunity to give them fun memories they will surely treasure by doing different activities they'll get to enjoy. Like every fall, I make sure we...

statement shoes for fall, ankle boots, I can't believe that we're in December already! But honestly, I'm so excited because there's only 3 more weeks before Christmas!!! November has been a fun month for my family especially since we did a quick trip to North Carolina for Thanksgiving to see an old friend of mine. Here are my favorite posts for the month of November!
Christmas, Motherhood / 28.11.2017

Growing up, part of what gets me excited about Christmas are the family traditions that I get to do with my parents. I always look forward to doing those year after year. And I still do! I think I always will, even though I don't get to do it with them anymore. Now that I am a mom of 2 adorable kids, it is my turn to make sure that we get these Christmas traditions...

Kid Motorz Chevy Bel Air 1-Seater 12-Volt Toddler Ride-On Car from buybuy Baby - The best ride on toy for toddlers! Click on the image to learn more. | ride on toys | ride on toys for toddlers | ride on car | ride on cars for toddlers | ride on cars for kids | ride on cars kids | ride on cars for kids toys This ride-on car was provided by buybuy BABY for free in exchange for my honest review. As always, thoughts and opinions are 100% honest and my own. Don't you find it amazing how our babies grow up so fast? And doesn't it make you wish that you could stop the time? I know I do! I can still remember how tiny my daughter was and how she was so dependent on me and my husband during her first year of life. But now, she has grown into this sweet, thoughtful, and witty girl right before my eyes. She's always expressing her thoughts, slowly becoming independent, and learning what she likes (and doesn't like). While I find that fascinating, I can't help but feel a bit sad because that means we're one step closer to the time when she won't need me anymore. I hope that doesn't happen anytime soon! With her birthday right around the corner, she told us what she wanted for her birthday - A Pink Car (after she saw a girl driving a pink ride-on car one day)! And so the search for the pink toddler ride-on car begun! I actually got overwhelmed with the tons of options available out there. Imagine how thrilled I was to find the perfect pink toddler ride-on car at buybuy BABY?

Since I was younger, holidays would always get me really excited! Back in the Philippines, it seemed as if we have long weekends every single month! How I miss those! My friends and I would always plan to go somewhere each holiday. Before being a mom, my husband and I would choose to just stay at home and relax to enjoy the holidays; and most of the time, I'd be online shopping because of all the great deals! After giving birth to my kids, I guess my adventurous side got awakened; or maybe it gave me the perfect excuse to force my husband outside our house (he loves to stay at home). I found myself planning family trips for every holiday and for every occasion. Last 4th of July weekend, our family visited Washington, DC to enjoy the long weekend. If you have toddlers like I do, this post is perfect for you. Today, I will be sharing what you can do in Washington, DC with your kids.

My daughter used to be scared of water - pool, ocean, anything. Even when I thought she has finally gotten over her fear of water, she really didn't. It wasn't until recently when she started showing interest in playing with water. She would constantly tell me how she wants to swim in any body of water she'd see, even a small puddle of water. How cute, right? We've taken her and my son to an indoor pool near where we live quite a few times during the colder months; and she'd constantly tell me she wants to do it again. So last Memorial Weekend, my husband and I thought it would be perfect to bring the kids to Massanutten Resort.

Mommy and toddlers holding I See Me! personalized children's book From the time my kids were born, I always make it a point to include reading to them in our routine. When they were younger, I would read to them every night before they go to sleep. They've always loved reading; which is why I would always give them a book as a gift for any occasion. But now that they're a little bit older, they seem to have a shorter interest in books; and seem to be more interested in playing other toys. I guess it's my fault because I somehow let our bedtime story slipped into the every day craziness of our lives.

Toddler using Minnie Mouse soapsox to make bath time more fun Most kids I know hate taking a bath; but my kids don't. Sure, they used to hate bath time when they were babies but they grew to love it. Maybe it's because they got used to taking a bath since it's part of our routine. And even when they're crying the entire time, we still do it; which maybe is why it has paid off. I honestly don't know why but I'm just thankful they love it. My son actually looks forward to bath time ALL THE TIME. As soon as I say "It's bath time", he immediately starts taking his clothes off and would start crying if I don't help him out. My daughter, on the other hand, is in that phase where she's imaginatively playing in the tub. She likes to "swim" in the tub even though there's not a lot of water in it. So I am all for anything that will encourage her imagination and make bath time more fun for her.

Note: I may receive commissions from clicks or purchases made through links in this post. My daughter has been enjoying finger and hand painting (my son doesn't appreciate it yet); sure it's messy but it gives her the chance to explore. When she was younger though, she hated having dirty hands and would always cry at school (not at home) whenever they'd have a painting activity. But now that she's older, she's starting to like it. A couple of...
