Bren is Bumblebee!

He was a little Bat...turned into Darth Vader...sailed as a little Buccaneer...raced like Lightning Mcqueen...and this year, he transformed into...BUMBLEBEE.

This is my cute little nephew, Brennan Carlyle. He's 4 years old and like all kids on Halloween, he's all dressed in his bumblebee outfit and proceeded from house to house for the customary trick-or-treating. My sister said he had a blast. He's got a grocery bag full of candies and didn't want to let it get away from his sight. He asked for his bag of candies first thing in the morning and just practically ate nothing but candies. So typical for kids his age. It was a shame we didn't have any trick or treaters this year. As I've said this town is the home of retirees so I've yet to see a toddler so far. If we have kids, then we'll probably be the only one trick or treating here, lol! I've entertained myself by viewing cute photos of my friends' children on Facebook. They look so adorable so I thought of sharing my "tisoy pamangkin" photos on my blog. Happy Halloween!

One great love

A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person. ~Mignon McLaughlin~

In the midst of an overwhelmingly busy move, we celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary in a low-key but cozy fashion. We've been caught up in so many things like the big move and our big vacation in the Philippines for our wedding. We did not make plans for anything fancy. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the moment together in a Mexican dinner date. It's been two years since we professed our love and commitment to each other in front of God. In those years, we've come to know, love, understand and respect each other more. With him, I always know I have someone who understands and knows me by heart. He always makes the good times better and the tough times so much easier to bear. He's my best friend and I can't imagine what life would be without him. Marrying him was the best thing I ever did and I'd gladly do it all over again in January.

I need a break!

Moving is tiring. I learned that the hard way. All the general cleaning, unpacking, arranging of stuff and all that, boy, it’s such a pain! I feel like I need a very long and relaxing vacation some place warm and fun. Here in the U.S., I think orlando vacations is one of the best. It’s a place any family would love to go. Kids adore the Disney characters while adults love to splish splash in the warm waters of Florida beaches. However, for now, I can only wish for an Orlando vacation, which is fine with me. Anyway, in 2 weeks, I’d be in my beautiful homeland Philippines so it’s not a bad alternative for a vacation.

The right plan for you

We get sick whether we like it or not. For parents, as much as possible, they would want to shield their kids from getting any kinds of viruses, especially the current scare, H1N1 virus. But there are factors beyond our control and no matter how careful we may be, kids still get sick. It is important to have our health insurance handy. Not all insurances have the same coverage so it’s necessary to know the specifications. We are currently using Blue Cross. I’ve heard people that live in North Carolina can also avail of Blue Cross Blue Shield NC. No matter where you are, there's a plan suited for your needs.

Dead tired me

The last time I've felt this exhausted was when I helped with a branch move to a new building. I'm referring to my previous job at the bank. There was no heavy lifting involved but the walking around the huge building and the hooking up of several PCs had taken a toll on me. Today, it's a different kind of labor though. It's not about computers. I've busted my b**t all afternoon. Pardon my French, lol! But yeah, we've been cleaning, cleaning, cleaning for God knows how long. Ok, I'm exaggerating. It's been probably for 2 hours. I have never done straight cleaning that long so I'm really physically drained. I don't have the right to complain because hubby had done a whole lot more than me. But still, I feel so tired right now. I had to rest for a few minutes because my lower back started to ache from scrubbing the tub. I bet there would be another round of cleaning and organizing next week when we officially move in to our new place. Gosh, I can't wait for my long vacation in the Philippines in 2 weeks. Darn, I really need the break!

Know more about SEO

A Page Rank boost is important to bloggers. I have friends who lose their Google PR for their blogs and have been discouraged to update their blogs. I can’t blame them. I would have felt the same thing if that would happen to me. I have no idea how Google ranks blogs. I don’t want to know because I’m pretty sure I would not understand it anyway. Nevertheless, bloggers value PRs. I would imagine search engine optimization or SEO is essential to internet-based businessmen, as well as to those individuals who are looking to generate more traffic to their website. It is a confusing subject but be aware that professional seo services can be obtained without any hassle. Some companies would charge you for it, but you could still find free services online. It might be worth a try.

I don't like the smell of it

I think I’m allergic to smoke. It bothers me when I smell something burning or even when I get close to somebody smoking cigarette. It used to annoy me when mom would burn up our trash in the backyard in the afternoon. She had this belief that burning which will give out smoke will shoo away mosquitoes in the house. I hated the smell of it. I’m glad hubby had stopped smoking years before we even met, otherwise we would have had problems dealing with it. I'm not quite sure if cigars would have the same effect on me as cigarettes do. My late grandmother used to chew tobacco. She liked it. I don't remember seeing her smoke it but I guess she would have liked Drew Estate, had it been available at that time.

Camping in what used to be our living room

After all the boxes of belongings were taken out by the moving company, we are left with practically nothing but cleaning supplies, toiletries, luggages, clean clothes that should last for a couple more days, computers and an air mattress. Jeff's first work day in Bull Shoals is on Monday but they would count that as the day that we should be driving to the new place. He'll get paid for normal work hours even if he'd still be driving on our way to the area and not physically present in the powerhouse. Sweet! That explains why we're still here in Ozark until Monday. It wouldn't make any difference if we're still here or drive up there over the weekend since the moving company won't be able to give us back our stuff until Tuesday anyway so either way, we would still be out of furnitures, entertainment and out of everything. Despite the obvious lack of household necessities, we still carry on with our day to day computer activities, lol. I have plenty of blog assignments from PayU2 which will due next week.

So with or without furniture, I am blogging, hehehe! Nothing would stop me from blogging except inability to connect to the internet, of course, which thankfully is not my predicament as of the moment. Padayon lang sa bisyo, bahala na ug carpet lang ko mag-computer gud, hala bulhot!

Now, the hubby is another craziness. Here's a solid proof for you that we both can't live without computers. Nope, he's not blogging. He's playing a Railroad Tycoon computer game. Minus his computer table of course.

So he's on the floor as well, not minding the cold kitchen tile flooring. I'm sure it's tough to maintain one sitting position, so I snapped some candid photos of him from this...

To this...Hahaha! There's the Hubby in his all stunning glory! Kulang na lang jud muligid cya sa salog, kalooy pud tawn oi! Judging from the smile on his face, I didn't think it bothered him.

Yay! Well, at least I don't have to sleep on the floor after all. The air mattress is better than nothing.

I can't wait to finally get settled in at the new place. This whole experience is an adventure but it's not something I want to do everyday. It's inevitable that we'll have to make another major move when we're ready to buy our first house but I won't think about it just yet. We'll cross the bridge when we get there, so they say! Until then...Ciao!

No reason to miss your TV shows

Are you going somewhere and wouldn’t want to miss your favorite TV shows? Here, let me tell you something neat. You can now actually watch your favorite TV shows from your own cable, digital or analogue TV over the internet anywhere in the world. Well, it’s not something new you might say. Free websites like YouTube will let you do that by simply searching for a specific show and you can watch it with no hassle. This is true but you are very limited to the kind of shows that people will upload to the system. But there’s an even better alternative! With the use of a Slingbox, you can actually access your own TV from home over the internet. There’s even a virtual controller that will let you switch channels and browse your programme guide. Wow, that’s mind-blowing, isn’t it? Technology nowadays is really awesome. Invest on a little box, cable it in to your existing TV equipment and broadband connection, install the Slingbox player software into your laptop, connect it to the internet and voila, you can watch your TV programs anywhere all day long.

Are wrinkle creams the secret of ageless beauty?

Beauty and youthfulness does not stay very long. It fades eventually. It is a fact of life. I don’t mind aging gracefully. But apparently, some people like to look and feel young all the time. Nothing is wrong with that either. Taking care of oneself is never wrong. That’s why some people try to use different kinds of anti-aging and wrinkle cream. Some works, a lot of them don’t. They can be pricey but beauty-conscious individuals don’t seem to mind. Well, if it gives you the confidence and satisfaction you need, then by all means, make yourself feel and look good.

Boxes...boxes...boxes

The movers did a very good job putting almost all of our belongings in boxes. I couldn't imagine going through this stressful process of moving without the help of a professional moving company. Working for the government has some perks. Today, the movers completely moved all our stuff and put it in storage until Tuesday when they will deliver them to our new place. We get to keep our personal belongings so at some point, there's still some stress sorting out which ones to carry ourselves and which stuff needs to go with them. Naturally, all the heavy stuff had to go. We won't be driving to our new place until Monday. I don't understand why but it's a government order and we don't want to make this more complicated than it should so we have to comply. For the next 2 days, we won't have a couch, T.V., bed, kitchenware and stuff. We still have our internet connection though, so it's a huge relief in this crucial period of transition. We've been eating out for the past 2 days and I would imagine for the next few days as well. I hate to think about how much pounds would I gain for eating out so much but I'm left with no choice. There will be more exciting photos on my future blogs so hang in there with me!

*Sorry for the ugly sight but it's my pleasure sharing what we've been going through lately!*

Packers are taking over!

It's been a while, I know! I'm sorry, things just got crazy for the past few days. I'm out of work but I was so occupied with so much stuff. We drove back to Bull Shoals to sign the lease contract of our new place and got the utility bills changed over to our name. As of this writing, we're back here in Ozark for at least 5 more days, then the big move is gonna happen. I am blogging in our bedroom right now so the packers can have all the room they need, I didn't want to get in their way while they're doing their job. There are 2 ladies up here with the moving company who are taking over our house and packing our belongings to get ready for the movers that will come tomorrow to pick up our stuff. It feels weird, it's kinda crazy. I'm not used to strangers coming over the house, let alone touching our stuff but it's something that has to be done so that's fine. We'll survive! We may be out of internet and phone connection for the next few days because of the move but I'll make sure I'll update this blog as soon as we get settled in our new place. I am excited! It's kinda' stressful but it's a new experience so I value it.

The new Hollywood "must have"

When President Obama got elected, not only his leadership skills were put under scrutiny but also the First Lady’s fashion sense. The press seems to make so much of a deal to how Michelle Obama dresses. She’s often featured on various kinds of fashion magazines, including AOL Beauty & Style and has been the talk of the town wherever she attends public and social events. Like her recent first appearance in London, she was spotted wearing a J. Crew sparkly cream cardigan and mint green pencil skirt. Reportedly, after she was seen wearing it, the cardigan was sold out. Obviously, the First Lady has an effect on fashion.

According to NBC, what makes Michelle Obama’s fashion choices wildly popular is the fact that they are wearables, trendy and exciting. Like the ultra-violet toy watch she’s been sporting in recent citings. As a matter of fact, the oversized, large watch faces from Toy Watch designed by the Italian designer Marco Mavilla has been inching its way to Hollywood stardom. It’s a must have for every fashion setters this fall and Christmas. I personally like the Gold Chrono Crystal Toy Watch below. It features the light-weight clear acrylic band that made toy watches famous. I wonder if Philippines already carry this brand so I can buy myself one this Christmas.

Thinking ahead

Ironic, but yeah, I am glad that I am out of work. It gives me so much time to do the things that I love doing like blogging. Plus I get to sleep in every morning not having to worry about getting late for work. I’m not sure what’s in store for me when I get back from a long vacation in the Philippines but I’ve been considering the option to go back to school or find a new job when I get bored from just bumming around the house. I’m pretty sure I’ll get bored and eventually yearn to work again. The options are not much considering the economic state of the country and my unwillingness to take just about any kind of jobs. I know for a fact that I don’t have the ability to take Sales Jobs. I just don’t have the customer service skills that most sales agents need. I’m not closing my doors for any possible new jobs in the future so we’ll see.

I know what he likes to receive on his birthday

I’d already be in the Philippines when Jeff celebrates his birthday in December so as early as now, I have thought of what to leave him as a gift for his birthday. My husband is one of the simplest people I’ve known. He’d appreciate even just a card because to him, it’s the thought that counts. I know he loves to read. We are both book lovers actually. He may enjoy a totally different genre than mine but in some ways, we both love to read together books that I usually choose. On his birthday though, I’m going to give him a book about History, which by the way, the genre he prefers. I’ve looked into Amazon books and found an interesting account of The Bataan Death March and its Aftermath. This grim history book revisits the worst ordeal Americans and Filipinos experienced during WWII, most specifically in the hands of the Japanese during the infamous death march in Bataan, Philippines. Even if history is not really my cup of tea, I was interested to read this book after reading the synopsis and reviews online. I know for sure that Jeff is going to enjoy reading this while he’ll be in a plane to the PI.

We love to use the computer

Jeff and I are both computer addicts. He’s into video games while I’m into blogging, Facebook and net surfing. With our current set-up, our computer stations are in two different rooms. We don’t like that so when we move to our new place, we’re going to get an office furniture that’s gonna fit in one room so even if we would spend most of our free time on the computers, we would still be able to talk and bond at the same time.

Luxury comes with a hefty price tag

Long road trips are fun. We’ve had a few for the past 2 years. It can be expensive when you add hotel & lodging and food to the cost of fuel. I wonder if people that own RVs can have some savings as far as travel expenses are concerned. I’m pretty sure campers, trailers, motor homes and the like are very expensive. Even used rv for sale make my eyes bulged when I see the hefty price on those luxurious vehicles. Some of them really look very nice on the inside though. You wouldn’t think it’s actually a van. Pretty neat!

Today is my last day!

"Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends."

-Richard Bach -

It's my last day at work. Mixed emotions... I am sad. I am excited with the new life ahead of us in a new place. I am glad that I don't have to wake up early mornings to go to work. I am fearful that I might get bored with nothing to do at home after our Philippine vacation. I hope this is normal. I can't seem to bring myself to be fully happy on my last day at work even if I really wanted to quit working for a while. I'm going to miss my job. I'm going to miss Ozark. But I really look forward to a new place, new life, new environment, new people, new working place for hubby. Goodbyes are always sad. I realize that. I am so glad I have a blog. It feels good to write how I feel. Hubby picked me up after work and I couldn't help but cry. I know, I'm such a wuss! I'm glad he understands. He bought me some swirl ice-cream cone to make me feel better. Haaay, life!

Istorya Ta Bai!

I have heard of this site even back when I was still working in the Philippines but I never really get the chance to explore it and read the threads. I stumbled with it again here in the U.S. while I was researching for wedding suppliers. Istorya forum has been an important tool for me as far as learning what's new, what's hot and what's not in the Philippines. In two years that I was away from the country, I never thought Cebu could improve that much. I wouldn't have learned that if not for iSTORYA.NET. Besides taking care of our wedding, I have made plans on which places to visit, restaurants to try, boutiques to shop, hair salon to go to, beach resorts to bring my family to while I am there. All because of this website. I mean the forumers are "laagan" and very well-infomed so if you're basically looking for information on almost anything, you'd find it in this forum. The threads that I frequently read are Destinations, Food & Dining, Fitness & Health and Trends & Fashion. However, there's more to that on this site so if you haven't been to the Philippines for quite a while and you're unsure what to do on your future vacation, you might wanna visit the forum and learn current things about the Philippines.

Operation cleaning

Next Tuesday, we would be moving to our newly-rented house in Lakeview, AR. I have started packing our things in boxes to get ready for the movers to come and get it. Thankfully, I no longer work starting next week so I’d make use of that time to do a little bit of cleaning and tidying up. I am not looking forward to it, lol. I’m not really a cleaning junkie. It helps a lot though that we have handy and easy to use cleaning equipments here than it is in the Philippines. We use vacuum cleaners instead of brooms. There’s the steam cleaner for the wooden floors and tiles instead of heavy mops. We have the washing machine and dryer instead of washing it by hands. If you don't want your newly-done nails messed up, then you can use the dishwasher. Boy, everything in the U.S. screams convenience. I love being here!

The clear face I never had

Not everyone is gifted with blemish-free, clear skin. Those of us with acne are always in search for the best acne products in the market. Personally, I have tried harsh exfoliants in the Philippines and Pro-Active here in the U.S. I have later found out that Hydroquinone, an active ingredient in most over-the-counter exfoliants can cause cancer. Scary huh! I had stopped using the product even before I realized it can cause cancer, the aggressive peeling, redness, irritation when exposed to sun were just too much to handle. When I moved to the U.S., I thought my skin would be better, but I was wrong. It even got worse. So I joined the much-hyped Pro-Active users only to find out that it's another disappointment. For a while, I thought Pro-Active works. But it didn't live up to my expectations. Hubby even hated it when I put that stuff on my face because I'd be poisonous and he could not kiss me before bed, lol! I stopped using it after 3 months. My face didn't get better so I had to make hubby understand that I need to find an acne treatment that will work. To make the story short, I have been using Obagi Clenziderm Acne Treatment Therapy right now. I'm on my 3rd month and I must say I see better results. It had controlled my acne 95%. Dark spots or acne scars has been left on my face though but I plan to visit Belo Medical Clinic in Ayala in November and see if they can help me get rid of the dark spots. If only I had acne-free skin, I wouldn't have to go through all these trouble and spend a lot of money on superficial treatments. I am not a vain person but I just can't let my acne control my life so I had to do this. Oh gosh, how I hate acne!

What's the best detox product out there?

Health is wealth. It may sound so cliché but the phrase is so important. I’ve heard people saying they rather be poor than sick and unhealthy. I definitely agree. You may be the richest person on earth but if you’re dying with cancer, how are you gonna enjoy your riches? Our body is like a machine designed to do different kinds of mechanical functions. Each part of your body is vital to our survival. Detecting a malfunction in our body system at an early stage is crucial. That’s why it’s important to have yearly general check-ups. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is necessary as well. One health condition that most of us may not have given much thought is colon cancer. Our beloved Cory Aquino died because of it. It may not sound so alarming especially if we’re still young but as they say prevention is better than cure. In small ways, we can help ourselves detox and cleanse our colon. We can read all sorts of colon cleanse review on the internet. We don’t live in a perfect world so scammers out there would be happy to take your money in exchange of a product that does not work. So do your research before plunging into something you might regret in the end.

An option that is worth-taking

The U.S. economy is still not looking good. I am no expert on financial analysis but I believe the stock and real estate market have been greatly affected as well. Many people have been losing their jobs. You’ll hear news everyday about houses being foreclosed, big companies going out of business and even small businesses striving to get by. People that actually have money and capable of making investments are wary to do the move because of the current economic condition. In the same way that emerging privately-held and middle market companies need planning assistance to help them with their capital-raising efforts. Attracting investors is not an easy task recently. You need to present your business ideas well. To seek a professional private placement memorandum service might be your best bet. Make your businesses look competent and brilliant to the eyes of the investors. Now is the time to be bold and aggressive to gain success.

Take it slow

Are you trying to lose weight? Well, you’re not alone. Obesity is quite a problem here in the U.S. I’m sure these people didn’t want ending up big but somehow managed to because of the wrong kinds of food, sedentary jobs and probably unhealthy lifestyles. Since I got here, I’ve gained so much weight. I am desperately trying to lose some of it for the past months. It came to a point that I’ve started reading about diet pill review to get some insights but nothing had convinced me so far to take this route. I’ve been exercising and it has slowly helped me lose the unwanted pounds. It’s not a speedy process but I’ll take it one at a time.

Knowing where to look

Are you looking for diet pills that work? There are many diet pills out there claiming to be effective, but are they really? What are the possible side effects of these pills? How much are they? These and more are what you need to be curious about when you want to give diet pills a try. The information can be confusing but if you find the right place to look, everything would be explained to you. I have yet to try one but I’m sure there are many people out there who have tried it and had been successful and some who just started to consider the idea but doesn’t know where to start. The internet is your tool.

Found the place...Now what?

Say, after having done a thorough research, you’ve found the place that you think sell the best weight loss pills out there, you definitely want to try it. It’s not wrong to get excited over it but don’t get your hopes high. You might be in for a real disappointment. It may work for others but not you, so just keep your mind open for other options.

Pamper them in their sleep

If there is something that I am NOT, but wish to become is to be a pet lover. It’s not that I hate pets but for some reason, I am scared of dogs especially the big dark ones. I have been bitten by a dog before. It was not something majorly alarming, but since then I have always been afraid to be around dogs. I love the white, cute and fluffy small dogs though. I wish to have one but I don’t know if I will be dedicated enough to take care of them with their grooming and other needs. Given a chance to have one, I think taking good care of them extends to providing them with comfy pet beds. If we think of them as our best friend, then they also deserve the comfort that their owners are enjoying during bed time. Don’t you think?

Total Nonsense

A day after my birthday, everything went pretty well. We have leftover chocolate cake. We try not to wolf it down in one sitting. Sweet foods are divine but I know they are the number culprit in gaining weight. If we are not careful with the foods we eat, no matter how many effective weight loss pills you we have out there, it’s not gonna work. I have thought about trying it but I am wary about taking anything oral even if it means losing weight or even helping me battle my adult acne problem. I believe in the natural way of losing weight which is proper diet and regular exercise. I have yet to see the results of it though, lol, but I’m persistent. Who knows, in the end I’d be victorious.

He still makes my heart melt!

Yipeey, it's my birthday today!

Thank you to all my friends in Friendster and Facebook who sent me greetings. My sweet hubby pulled off another wonderful surprise for me. He took a day off today to bake me a chocolate cake and cheese manicotti pasta for dinner. Of course, I didn't have the slightest clue until my lunch break came and I decided to come home for lunch and saw 2 naked newly baked cakes on top of the oven, without the frosting, candles and all. In short, I found out prematurely and I kinda' spoiled the surprise, lol! He later revealed that he asked for this day off last week but just didn't tell me since he wanted to surprise me. This morning, he woke up early, showered, get dressed as if he's going to work. We even kissed goodbye as we always do each morning when he goes to work, so I really didn't sense anything different. Without me knowing, he took a detour to the grocery store in town and bought the necessary ingredients for his planned surprise. He may not make the fanciest cake out there, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I think it's the best cake I've ever tasted. It's an obvious labor of love and it's chocolate, so I couldn't ask for more!

As for my birthday gift, I've asked for a Nintendo DS Lite and my sweet hubby gave me one. It's a metallic pink with New Super Mario Bros. for the game cartridge. I know, I know, it's so childish, lol, but I love it! I've never had toys like this when I was a child so now that I have my hubby who would make my childish wishes come true, I didn't think twice and ask something that would entertain me on long travels and would definitely put a smile on my face. It's another wonderful birthday with my lovey and as always, I have been grateful to God for giving me such a thoughtful, caring, romantic and loving partner in life. He's the sweetest! I must have done something good to deserve such a man!

Sorry no pictures of me taken, I looked so haggard from work, I can't dare to share them with you, guys!

Happy birthday to me!

Nintendo DS Lite

My ever favorite computer game -- Mario Bros.

Pasalubong Madness

We have done our last big shopping for our Philippine vacation. It practically took us almost a day to take care of all the things that we have to bring with us on our trip to the Philippines. I bought more “pasalubong” for my family and friends back home. We finally purchased a new huge Samsonite luggage for my wedding gown. I thought of bringing my gown as a carry on but I’ve learned from a lot of Filipinas that they just stick their gowns in their check-in luggage and they were fine. I decided to just put it in a very durable luggage and check it in to avoid stress at the airport. Since I’ll be travelling alone, I think a laptop, a camera, a purse and a wedding dress will be too much for me to handle. We also bought a new pair of prescription glasses for hubby. His old one is still good but I just didn’t like the round frame so I’ve been bugging him to buy a new pair. Our health insurance only covers 25% of the cost but we were not heartbroken because we’ve anticipated the possibility that they may not cover this at all, since it’s not a typical illness or medical condition, so we’re quite happy with the discount. We still think insurance is a racket though, most of the plans are confusing and expensive, but it’s a necessary evil so we have to have one. I have read somewhere though that you might be able to find good insurance deals by going to health insurance lead websites. Well, I’m not sure if that route is any better but you never know until you try.

Gosh, my feet hurt from walking around the mall. But it’s okay, I love shopping, it puts a smile on my face especially if hubby cooperates and would just sit in one of the benches, read a book and wait patiently until I’m done, lol! We rewarded ourselves by sharing a banana split from Dairy Queen, oh, it’s so divine I forgot about my obsession to lose weight. I can’t be like this all the time though, I’ll just exercise more tomorrow, promise! Oh, yeah, the alterations for my gown is 100% complete and I’m very happy with the outcome. I had my last fitting this morning and it fits perfectly with my current body so I must not gain weight starting today. I would still try to lose some more though, and it wouldn’t affect the fitting anyway since the back is a lace-up closure. But I know it’s easier to gain than lose weight. What, with the holidays coming and the inevitable frequent dining out with family in the Philippines, all I can say is Goodluck! But seriously, I'll try to be very careful. It would be a disaster if my gown won't fit me on my wedding day, wouldn't it?

Did you let the whole world know?

Having a baby is always a blessing. Parents take pride in this special achievement. They go out of their way to let their family and friends know about the newest addition to the family. They do it through baby announcements. It’s a cute way of introducing your baby to the world. How about you? Have you already picked which cute photo of your precious baby to include in your baby announcement card?
