EFF. I'm still buzzed. I'm trying to eat some cup ramyun [cup noodles] to sober me up [just a little bit. PLEASE] before I change and go downstairs for the car to pick us up to the airport. Ok I need to wipe this bright pink lipstick off my lips. It is before 6am. This was a bad idea pulling an all nighter. GAH. I hope I dont throw up on the plane or on the way to the airport for that! Gah can't stop hiccuping. Ok we are going to San Fran......
Happy Memorial Day Weekend!
er hope I dont puke. I knew those last shots were not a good idea while we eat. No I didnt know bcos it felt so right at the time. What else is new.

We're off for a mini weekend vacay to San Fran. Just the hubs and me. It's so crucial to get away while it's just the two of us. It's both of our first times there so should be fun. :]

How to Keep Marriage Healthy

A healthy marriage is what a baby and family deserve. The best thing you can do is try. I'm a child of divorced parents so I'm not bashing anyone. :]

Here are some things I've come up with so far to maintain a healthy marriage :
-Have date night at least once a week. [If you have a baby, even if it's pizza and wine for 15 minutes at most finally after the baby went down. Just light a single candle or something! Then pass out, tehehe. :]
-Yes, be each other's true best friend. You're on the same team. Respecting each other is huge aspect of doing this.
-Don't go to sleep mad.
-Don't have many nights apart. Example: business trip, etc.
-Take trips and vacations to relax, explore, learn, have fun, share and make memories together. Whether it's a day outing, going fruit picking in the nearby countryside of where you live, mini weekender, or whatever!
-Talk arguments out so that there are no misunderstandings or grudges for next time. Talk it out to release so you can learn and or teach one another. You'll also release their love for you by talking it out rather than the opposite. :]
-Def pick and choose your "battles". It's too much to fight for all of them. Why bother anyways? Let the person be if it's not going to interfere with you [meaning dont bicker much if its something they do and doesnt involve you, but just bothers you].
-Love yourself to love your spouse and others. So that means standing up for yourself when you need to also.
-No name calling in arguments. You can't take what you said when you're mad back. [I'm bad in this :[
-Therapy is healthy. I wish we could [extra cash] do this. [Although a couple we do this with is not bad too, lol jk.]
-Keep God as the center. This is a personal belief. That is the only way it will grow healthy and strong. Yep, God knows what one goes through a marriage!

You can always be doing something to better a relationship. These are easier said than done and challenging. Yes there are a lot; with a lotttt more I didnt even mention. No one said it was going to be easy. Hey a marriage is a blessing, but also a lot of work. ;]

Please share more tips and opinions!!! I would love to hear.

Ugh I am finally, finally recovering now. Just a stuffy nose [horrible for sleeping], coughs, and such which I'll take over my week+.

Last week, the boy I watch got sick. So I went in early to stay with him from school. He tried to kiss me on my mouth bcos he does that sometimes. Uh huh. I always tell him that these (my) lips are for my husband, lol. He is now full on trying to kiss my mouth.... And I'm holding his head back as his face [and eyes] are stretching with my hand imprints on his forehead, lol. I tell him to please stop bcos I don't want to get sick now. So he licks his hands and shoves them in my mouth. Gee thanks. He missed 6 days of school. 

I had one of the worst sicknesses I thought I was possibly pregnant. I had THE biggest migraine ever for days-days! Ugh. I was so dizzy, so nauseous, and wanting to throw up. I couldn't get out of bed. I was so cold with my sweatshirt on but sweating up a mess. I was sweating so much it was nasty. My body was aching that I couldn't sleep at night. I wasn't coughing or had stuffy nose. Then I got my period, lol. And for the first time I was kinda happy.

This sickness was so bad it made me think of how I'd be if I really was pregnant with morning sickness. I straight up asked my husband if we could just legit adopt 4 children bcos I didn't want to feel that sick ever again, lol! How selfish. And how quick we change our minds! LOL

Anyways it's only been... Feb, March, April.. 3 months since we started trying, but I decided to just throw all of that out the window. I was peeing on ovulation sticks the past few weeks. I'm healthy, able to conceive, and all that great stuff. I just want to enjoy right now and let it be whenever it will be! We can't plan anyways. I want to enjoy our summer, explore, travel, dye my hair whenever I want, drink shots and wine, and eat sushi. Even though we werent stressed, we were so exited and really anticipating a baby. When you are thinking of conceiving, it most times just does not happen. I know of too many stories like that. I am happy for this freedom we always had. :D So here's to.... enjoying our summer and getting pregnant whenever we do! I'm still #1 baby lover and all that.

Honest.Com

Jessica Alba and Christopher Gavigan have worked together to make Honest.Com "We both wanted an ideal: not only effective, but unquestionably safe, eco-friendly, beautiful, convenient, and affordable – everyone should have it."


The website seems like Honest.Com is really trying to help parents with their children. That's the feel that I get. They deliver it to you and try to make things easy for you. They seem understanding because they both are parents. There's also Free Trial they offer. Seems cool and I would like to try it later. ;]

!?!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!??!?!??!?!?

Ok let me just say that everyone is different and can be unique. Pregnant women do come up with weird things on how to take a pregnant picture. I dont know why this is too common.

On a tv show, one pregnant woman wanted to be naked riding a horse and have a painter paint it into artwork. Well she got that done.

How sweet is this post? :]
Reblogged: http://www.thedaybookblog.com/2012/05/keepin-it-real.html

."............Now, Everett is one of those babies that always makes you feel like you're a pretty good mom because he's so easy going, easily comforted, and overall very happy. So taking on round one of 'inconsolable Everett' really threw me and my "wait, I thought I was good at this" mentality for a loop. I reached that breaking point ... you know, the one where you can laugh or you can cry? Well I cried. And I cried kind of hard I guess, because to Everett it sounded like I was laughing. So he started laughing. That sweet baby rolled over, looked up at me and laughed at my crying. And that was it. It was that one moment we both needed I suppose. I relaxed and chuckled at his sweet sense of humor, picked him up, and that now happy baby sunk right into my arms and fell asleep.
Oh, I am one lucky lady to be his mama. "
