Photostory: Mini Tuktuk

Yesterday, I already received the prize I won from Amazing Grace Giveaway: Win wonderful wooden toys from Wonderworld! sponsored by Wonderworld Toys Philippines via Truly Rich Mom blog.

I won one Wodden Mini Tuktuk toy and look who's really happy about it. 

It's a belated happy birthday gift for little Matthew. Daddy Allan tied a string to the Mini Tuktuk so Matt can pull it. Matt kept on walking around our terrace while pulling the Mini Tuktuk.

WONDERWORLD Mini Transportation are great social toys, aside from developing gross motor skills from pushing and pulling. Let your child bring his fave WW mini vehicles to your next outing for fun play with his/her cousins/friends. 

Tuktuks are Thailand's version of taxi. So named because of the sound of their engine, these are motorized rickshaws and are popular amongst tourists for their novelty value. They are occasionally faster than taxis in heavy traffic as weaving in and out is easier. Celebrate your child's milestones with WONDERWORLD Educational Toys!

Thanks to Wonderworld Toys Philippines and Truly Rich Mom. By the way, I think their having another giveaway via  Manila Mommy.

Happy Thursday!

BC Bloggers Meme: Things That Make Me Happy

Hi everyone! It's a start of another busy day for me and I am looking forward for all the blessings today. Have you wonder how could I make it each day, doing multitasking - working as a Chemist, a blogger, online seller (aspiring mompreneur), a wife and a mother. I am not a superwoman, I wish I am. Haha!

I will spill the secret now... I am a happy wife and mother. And what are the things that make me happy, I listed them here:

1. Mornings - Waking up each morning means I have another day to live on and enjoy.

2. My son's laughter, hugs and kisses - These usually greet us every morning and that's priceless. Matt makes me happy even when he is upset. I love everything about him.

3. My blog - This has been my diary for more than a year now and through this, I am learning more and I have the courage to open and share my personal life and motherhood experiences.

4. My long time friendship - I have few friends but I make sure they are worth to keep.

5. Giveaways - I love giveaways, who doesn't?

6. My online shop - It's the start of my new dream and I bet you already know that.

Please visit my shop HERE.

7. Cloth Diaper - Shifting to cloth diaper is one of the motherhood challenges I went through and I never regret making the shift.

8. My Work - I have been a Chemist for almost 9 years and it's a fulfillment of my dream.

Sorry for the messy photo. We had this photo when we were transferring the Lab from Caloocan to Bulacan.

9. My family - A call or text from them can definitely make me happy.

10. My ever patient husband - He is the last but not the least, I am definitely sure of that. Daddy, I hope you know that by just seeing you around, you already make me happy. You don't need to utter a word to make me smile because my heart always beats faster because of you.

Yes, he is the Chemist Dad!

This is my entry for this week’s BC Bloggers Meme. I just limit them to 10 because the truth is there are so many things that make me happy (#mababawangkaligayahan) and the space will not be enough or you'll get lazy reading through it. 

Oh by the way, if you want to join the blog meme and blog hop, why not join us at BC Blogger. I'll guarantee you will learn a lot from it. Join us HERE.

Can you tell me what are the things that could make you happy? Ready, go!

Photostory: The Cake

Here's the series of Matthew's Second Birthday post...

Last year, for Matt's first birthday, we had this cake from Red Ribbon:

flavor : Moist chocolate pound cake & cupcakes

icing : Boiled icing

Height with Accessories: 20.2 inches

Riser: 6" dia styro + 12 pcs 2.5" dia cupcakes 

1st layer: 8" dia cake 

2nd layer: 6" dia cake 

3rd layer: 4" dia styro

It's the Sesame Street Elmo & Friends Cake and it comes with 12 SS Smiling Trio cupcakes. The cupcakes in the photo above were not the SS Smiling Trio cupcakes though, here's their photo:

The cake was chewy and chocolaty. More Character Cakes from Red Ribbon here.

For Matt's second birthday, we want a simple cake and since it's a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse theme we chose this one.

Size: 12 inches diameter

It's the Baby Mickey Cake from Goldilocks. It's a chocolate chiffon cake with chocolate chips and choco cream in between. I like the combination of the color flow icing and it looked like a fondant cake. Matthew screamed "Mickey!" upon seeing the cake. Seeing him really happy and thrilled, that's priceless.

You can view more of Goldilocks Celebration Cakes here.

Happy Wednesday! It's middle of the week already, can't wait for Sunday to come right?
