At last we had a somewhat decent family picture.
Thanks to my cousin’s daughter, Dimple, for taking this photo. This was taken at their place where we stayed for a couple of nights before going home.
I was happy to be back here in our little town with our little bundle of joy. It was Tuesday morning when we decided to pack our things and head home, Eman’s first bus ride at 11 days old. Read more… »
The waiting is finally over and today she was pretty thrilled for being able to wear toga.
So we are home after three weeks of being gone. The trip was good with no complains from Ella. Thanks to Dizzytab that she has taken an hour before we left my sister’s apartment. I noticed that I also have less problems with traveling from here to Davao. I feel nauseated before and really tired even we are riding the King Long bus which supposed to give me comfort. I don’t know why but one thing for sure, this won’t change my mind on moving back to my hometown before June. One thing that made me more comfortable traveling today is the fact that I am wearing a medium sized adult diaper.

I was wondering the other day why I was rushing to get all the cloth diapers done like I was preparing for something that I am not certain of. The baby won’t show up until April yet I felt the need to finish the sewing project. Donald and I stayed up until 2am yesterday and I was awakened by a call at quarter past 5. Since I just have dozed off, I am in a not-so-normal state of mind while I was trying to reach for the cellphone on the table. It was my SIL’s number and I knew right then what was it. My FIL went home to the Lord at the age of 59.
I finally got hold of my fabric and spent most of the on my cloth diaper project. I was too excited that I let Donald check if the package has arrived from Davao so after dropping Ella to school, he went straight to LBC. He said their reason of not being able to deliver it yesterday is valid because their courier van goes straight to San Franscisco, a one hour drive past here, bringing all the packages that are supposed to be dropped here. I don’t get the point of wasting gas driving past here and bringing the packages back. 
Anyway, I am happy that I can continue making diapers for Emmanuel yet I really could not understand why I always get short with it when I have carefully measured the length that I needed putting a half meter allowance. It happened again! I am such a moron. 
So instead of whining, I make use of the scraps again. Read more… »
Been wrapped up with my cloth diaper project and loving every minute of it. 
I am done cutting the printed fabrics and made an adjustments on the pattern. I already made 5 pieces of NEWBORN size (yes, the small size is actually for newborn which I just found out today) so I made my own SMALL size pattern and will be sewing 30 pieces of this size. Read more… »
Yeah, since this is my blog, I have the right to do so. I just want you to see what has become of the stacks of fabric I had last night.
I planned on having 6 different prints and I already did an exact calculation before we left yesterday of the fabric that I needed. But then, I had no idea how it slipped off my mind and only got three printed flannels (which adds to my first two prints) so I was just able to make 5 cloth diapers in different prints. When buying baby clothes, I wanted it to be by half a dozen or a dozen and that is also the same with sewing. I wanted it to be even. That’s an issue with me so I think I will be getting another print when we go to Davao.
….we tied the knot at Uyanguren Church of Christ, Davao City. Like all couples, it was one of the most momentous event in our lives.
