Mommy Moments--Little Christmas Tree

Our simple Christmas tree is ain't up yet but I'll be putting up them soon! I have ordered a Christmas cake from Repaco Garden , noche buena menu is prepared, wine is set already ( my SIL gave the wine as a birthday present for me on my birthday last month ), presents for the kids are ready to be given on Christmas but I haven't thought of putting up our Christmas tree first lol! Well anyway, I'm sharing our simple Christmas tree of last year that was put up with the help of Wakaba and Haruka--at first the motiff was only blue ( which is my fave color )but Wakaba insisted to put some pink ornaments to go with our not so big Christmas tree. Last year, I put up the cards that I received from friends and loved ones to our giant cork board which was Wakaba' s art work display supposedly.
I'm planning of putting up our Christmas tree next week--well, I need few new ornaments and yes, a space! Wakaba's study desk occupied the space for our tree--well, I'll see what more I can do for it. Good luck to me then ^_^

Mommy Moments--Last Christmas

Last Christmas was a couple of malling to our favourite shopping mall--spent a day of window shopping, walked around, little rides for the kiddies, enjoyed a buffet style dessert and had a relaxing dinner.

Last Christmas was Wakaba's Christmas Stage Play when she was still in kindergarten. It was fun watching her on stage!

Last Christmas, we put up our little Christmas tree, although our tree was small, we were happy coz we did it all together ^_^

Last Christmas brought some sick days, hugging each other brings comfort and warmth.

My kids artwork comes in all sizes, shapes and colors...

They both love to do some art crafts at home and at school and we have a quite of collection of their arts already. They enjoy the moment of making arts and I'm delighted when they bring home their masterpieces and start making our home into an art gallery. ^_^

Mommy Moments--Blowing Bubbles

The kids in the neighborhood came to our apartment and invited Wakaba and Haruka to have some blowing bubbles moments with them one summer. Shabondama or blowing soap bubbles in Japan comes with a thin bottle and long stream tube and all you have to do is dip the tube to the thin bottle's liquid and blow gently. I'm glad I had some stocks ( bought from the store ) for them to play around with some other kids that day. Well kids are kids that sometimes it ain't just enough so what we did is made refills from a dishwashing liquid and water and stirring 'em up for them to continue playing.

Blowing soap bubbles brings me back to my childhood memories^_^

---Bonding time------Wakaba is getting serious over here. " Mama, I want more bubbles! "---
