BEST DAD for my kids ~ AD and JX

Kids love you so much! Every minute you spend with them, they cherish. If you are out of their sight, definitely they’ll look for you….What is it that they miss?

Your undivided attention and sincere love for them! They truly feel it that is why they also feel they have the best Poppa in the whole damn world!

We love you!

I’ve found another wooden toys I can collect for the kids. It’s called Voila toys from Thailand where it became the first Thai wooden toy company to earn the right to use the Green Label logo from the Thailand Environment Institute for products make from rubber wood (so it’s safe especially to a one-year old babies). I was so excited to have seen the wooden toy collections that I took several photos of the toys (but just had to post these two)…there were so many toys that I wanted for the boys (kitchen set! stove, microwave, sink and dishwasher, refrigerator, pizza, and many more) but that has to wait…will need to save up…so I’ll just buy one toy after another…
Like any other toys, these toys are carefully designed to stimulate children’s imagination as well as to support their physical and mental development. The Voila toys are well crafted and well thought of design, attractive with colorful designs) and safe to play with.

For more info about the toys, do checkout www.voilatoy.com.

Well, here’s the good news, I’m helping my friend sell these toys and you may contact me if you’re interested to collect their toys too! You can also check out www.goodtoys.com.ph, let them know that you got this tip from me or just contact me for availability of Voila toys.

I was set to surprise AD and JX with Meet and Greet Hi5 gang in one of the Ayala mall tour they’ll have this May but we got this opportunity to see them up close and personal last Tuesday. I was expecting it to be the Hi5 gang we were accustomed to when we were still watching TV 2.5 years ago but was surprised that they were a different set of young people. Totally new to us so when we had the photo op, I just say HI to them with a smile, not knowing what else to say.

This is the time when I wish:
I had really looked through the internet on what AD can do “something” during the summer.
AD was older than 4yo o he can join some of the interesting activities listed below.

Other than that, I wish he still be my 4yo son.

Hallooooo!

We’re back from Cebu! We did nothing but eat, sleep, take photos, eat and sleep! Got our big butts back in Manila!

AD was so happy to see us home. He wouldn’t stop talking and was so hyper the entire evening. JX shyly smiled when he saw us. He was inseparable from his Poppa but missed me too! We surely missed the boys.

Next time, Poppa, we really need to bring the kids!
