Taking vitamins everyday can help boost our immune system and prevent us from getting sick easily, especially now that it's rainy season once again and sometimes our weather is really unpredictable, one minute it's so hot and the next minute it's already raining hard.

United Home Ceetab Premium

The 'ber months is here once again and usually a lot of people gets cough and colds during these months. So, it's best to take Vitamin C everyday to increase our body's resistance and prevent ourselves from easily getting sick caused by viruses.

United Home Ceetab Premium is non acidic unlike other Vitamin C's, with a formulation of 568.18mg sodium ascorbate and it's available in 10 blister packs x 10 capsules. It's also great for prevention and treatment of Vitamin C deficiency.

For my daughter, we let her have Ceelin Plus to shield her from harmful viruses.

Although, there are times that we tend to be so consumed with work and that we don't have time to exercise regularly and take vitamins or supplements that our bodies needed most. And when the cough strikes, it's good to have the United Home Broncho for the relief of cough characterized by excessive or sticky sputum or phlegm. It also help treat respiratory tract disorders such as acute or chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

For fever, it's a must have to take he United Home Fevertab, it has 500mg Paracetamol that helps in the reduction of fever and also eases minor aches and pains.

As busy parents, we usually sleep late working for our home-based business and online jobs. To fight of anemia and have a healthy blood, the United Home Fersulfate PLUS+ is perfect for us. This is also great especially for bloggers and work at home moms who works in the wee hours. Fersulfate PLUS+ has 300mg Ferrous Sulfate and 250mcg Folic Acid which is also good for pregnant women. I used to take a Ferrous Sulfate with Folic Acid when I was pregnant, it is one of the essential vitamins during pregnancy.

Mom's Day Out

August 18, 2017 0 Comments
Being a wife and a mom juggling between different tasks at home and other activities outside can be physically and emotionally exhausting, most especially if you don't have a housemaid. 

When I became a Mom, I rarely had a "Me Time" and sometimes it can't be considered a "Me Time" because I'm still with my daughter whenever I go out. Having a good massage is what every mother would want to have after all the tedious tasks we've been doing at home or at work. My most favorite "Me Time" is having a massage at my favorite spa, which is just  block away from where we live before in Obrero. I always avail their "Pinoy Hilot" at Elysia Wellness Spa. ;)


I was delighted when I learned that Sun Life Philippines will be having a Mom's Day Out event. I got excited because who doesn't want to have a Mom Day's Out? ;) It turned out to be a fun day for us Moms because we get to have a relaxing massage courtesy of Elysia Wellness Spa and most importantly, we get to learn more about parenting and balanced motherhood from Michele Alignay, a Family Life Specialist, Registered Psychologist and Registered Guidance Counselor.


Finding balance in raising our kids while keeping your sanity and keeping your cool is quite difficult and challenging. "A well-balanced mom has more to give her family", I totally agree with this... But it is easier said than done. So, we have to work on our "wants", "should" and "capacities", instead of having a rule that covers all situations all the time, choose to pick within the situation and you'll never be out of balance. 



Thanks to our speaker, Ms. Michele Alignay for sharing her tips and experiences that taught us how and why we need to balance, re-balance and recharge our life.


Sun Life Mindanao Cluster Head Mylene Almonte, talks about planning for our children's education for their brighter future through "MyFuture Fund". Everyone of us were surprised to see how much the tuition fee will cost by the time our children would enter college and we're talking about millions here. Wow... My daughter is still in kindergarten now and I can't imagine if our savings and earnings will be enough when that time comes. This is where MyFuture Fund can help us, it would be a great tool in helping us achieve our goal in preparing a college fund for our children. 

To achieve our children's dreams, we need to plan ahead, save and invest for the college education of our children. Here's Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo's video on Sun Life's MyFuture Fund



For more information on MyFuture Fund, visit www.sunlife.com.ph or call 849-9888. You can also visit their Facebook Page at Sunlife Financial Philippines and Instagram account at @sunlifeph

Here's an inspiring short video by Sun Life Philippines for all the moms out there who are wondering if they're doing the right thing for their kids...



Thank you, Sun Life Philippines for letting us have a stress-free day with other Moms. I enjoyed and learn a lot on motherhood, parenting, self-care and money management... :)

Are You Ready for School?

June 09, 2017 0 Comments
Hello June! It's back to school once again, but are you ready for school? Are we? 

Disney's Are You Ready For School? (Winnie the Pooh's School Days) Book

My daughter will be in Kindergarten this school year and I think we are somewhat ready for school. We did some activities, exercises and review what she had learned last school year. There are some things she had forgotten or still confused, like writing the letters "b, d and s" and numbers "5 and 6". She sometimes write those letters and numbers in reverse. It's a good thing that we had this review before going back to school. :)

She also love books... She loves to read, so we read some books that are appropriate for her age and later on I let her read on her own.

Their school provide the bags and other school materials that they will be needing at school, so we don't have to worry looking and lining up at the store for every materials needed and required school supplies for their upcoming class. :)

I've already checked her school uniforms and shoes if it's still okay and I'm glad everything is still fine and can still be used. There's a few skirt that needs a little adjustment, other than that, we're good to go. :)

Easter Sunday 2017

June 08, 2017 0 Comments
This is a long overdue post, hence, I'll still post this for Miel to read when she grows up...

It was our first time to join an Easter Sunday Activity such as Easter Egg Hunting and Easter Egg Painting and coloring activity. My daughter really had fun and she really enjoyed the activities and games that they've played. There were games for children her age and she happily played along with the other kids. She got excited to play another game when their team won and got their prizes... Kids love prizes... ;)


Joining this kind of activity is a great bonding for both of us. She also get to interact with different kids her age and she enjoyed doing all the activities with enthusiasm.

Miel's entry for the Coloring Activity got her two swimming pool passes at The Royal Mandaya Hotel. She's happy and excited to swim there but unfortunately, we haven't had the chance to go yet. But, we'll make sure to avail the passes before it expires... ;)

Over-all, the event was great and we had so much fun. Miel's actually looking forward to next year's Easter Sunday and she's hopeful and more motivated to hunt for more eggs next time... ;)

Weekend Getaway at D'Leonor Inland Resort & Adventure Park

May 08, 2017 0 Comments
Last week, we run out of luck while going to the beaches around Samal Island. Unfortunately, all of the resorts that we visited are fully booked! Yeah... So sad... We usually just go into the beach without booking in advance and we didn't encounter any problems so far, until last weekend... There are a lot of people that day, of course, it's Labor Day (a holiday) the next day! Silly us, we didn't check the date before going there. :(

Word of advice, check the calendar first before going to Samal Island. If it's a holiday or a day before the holiday, I suggest you check the availability first and book in advance so you can save your time and money in case that resort has no more rooms available for an overnight stay.

So, after visiting around 5 resorts around Samal Island, we went back to Davao City and went to at D'Leonor Inland Resort & Adventure Park.

Fortunately, they have one room available and we grabbed it right away... YAY! It was already 6pm when we got there, so we had our dinner first before going for a night swim... We ate at the restaurant just near the entrance going to the Wave Pool.

Our stay at D'Leonor Inland Resort was good, there are minor issues but it they've found a way to fix it...

Our kids enjoyed the waves and slides at the pool... It was really hot that day, it's a good thing they have a big man-made mushrooms that served as an umbrella in the Kiddie Pool area... By the way, here's a video that I've made where you can see and experience what's in D'Leonor Wavepool... Enjoy! :)
