12th!

January 2011/Manila, Philippines

Happy 12th Anniversary, my dear husband!

Our gift is still baking in the oven. We'll see him in about 16 weeks. I can hardly wait. You're going to be such a wonderful Dad to Jacob. :)

Thank you and I love you. ♥

Babymoon Booked!

I bought this Scoopon voucher for a two night getaway for two people at the beautiful Australis Retreat at Wisemans on the stunning Hawkesbury River in early January. Back then my husband and I didn't know that I would fall pregnant in April. I convinced him to let me buy this voucher just so we could go on a mini holiday this year knowing that we will not be able to go on a holiday out of Australia (permanent residency to citizenship conditions). Now that I'm pregnant, we've decided to book this mini holiday for our babymoon!!! :)

I will be a little over 26 weeks when we take this trip. It's just over an hour drive from Sydney. It's going to be a very laid back holiday because we just want to relax and enjoy each other before we welcome Jacob into our family. This holiday will also be a belated celebration for our 12th/6th anniversary this end of September. I feel blessed that I have been with my husband for more than a third of my life.

I'm still in the process of researching about things to do in the area. Otherwise, my husband will probably be swimming most of the time while I watch him do so. Haha. I must remember to bring some reading materials then. =)

Thank you, Lord!

Thank you, Lord
-- for giving me a relatively good day today and yesterday. I'm feeling a little better everyday. Hopefully this continues but it's fine even if it doesn't. [I spoke too soon. Haha. Oh well, it's all for a 'wonderful cause'. :D]
-- for another milestone today, 10 weeks. Yay us!!! :)
-- for giving my husband and I the opportunity to live here in Australia. I just realized that it's been 3 years yesterday since we came here. And what an amazing 3 years it has been. I can only smile when I think of all the wonderful things You still have in store for us. For all of these, we praise and we thank you!


P.S. I'm so sorry for being on hiatus these past weeks. I have a lot going on right now. I'll explain later. Hopefully, I can go back to blogging regularly soonest.

11th!

Thank you, my dear husband for 11 (and counting!) wonderful years of togetherness, friendship and love! You are truly God's gift to me.

 

Happy Anniversary. i ♥ u!
