Random Thoughts

Yes, that's us! LOL! The MBAP's Baby Shower/Early Christmas Party last Sunday was scheduled at 3PM but we arrived at Jane's mansion at 2:30PM. You see, Hubby over estimated the traffic (there was no traffic at all!). We left our place around 1:30PM and after an hour, we were at Jane's house already. We were too early that we arrived 10 minutes after the caterer arrived. LOL!

The moment we arrived though, Alex immediately saw Sophia's slide. She was ecstatic!

 
 
 

She immediately checked it out even if it was still hot. She didn't mind at all! After playing in the slide, we then went up with Jane to check out Sophia's play room which again was "heaven" for the little girl. She felt at home immediately! LOL! Afterwards, Sophia woke up from her nap.

Jody, Dicky and kids arrived afterwards and then the others followed.

After everybody arrived, we had our photo taken (sorry, Joy, we didn't wait for you anymore, gutom na kme! LOL!) and then started to "attack" the food!


*Snagged from Abie.

This is the time when we realized that our camera was lo-batt. Aaargh! I knew it! I was actually asking Hubby if he was sure that the camera's battery was still full, he said yes. Oh well, this is one of the lessons that we learned over the weekend. I also reminded Hubby that this should never happen when I give birth. :D

Our food (thanks again Jacqui for organizing it!) was catered by CCME. And we had fun eating Paella, Lechon, Fried Chicken, Spaghetti, and Fish Fillet. The cakes were the highlight of the meal for me (thanks to Apols and Jody!). Cakes were Estrel's cake and the moist chocolate cake of Polly's. Yum! I'm guessing now, I think I gained 4 lbs just this weekend. LOL!



The games were taken cared of by Jody. Thanks girl! There were three games, one for the Mommies (measuring tummies of the preggy Moms, me, Jane, and Peachy), one for the Daddies, and for the preggy Mommies. All the games were a blast especially the ones for the Daddies. :)

Oh, by the way, thanks again ladies for the very cute nursing bib! I love it! And looking forward to using it in the next months (wish me luck!). :)

Here are some photos taken by Hubby using my camera phone and some photos I snagged from Joy and Abie.

 
 
 
 

And now for the highlight of the party are the exchange gifts! There were two sets, one is exchange gift for the kids and the other is the elephant game. Check out Kelly's post about the elephant game which was so much fun! :) And here are more photos taken using my camera phone (again).

 
 
 
 

And this one's my favorite photo of all, grabbed from Joy. It just proves how much we had FUN at the party!



The daddies also had fun that night after drinking one bottle of beer each (of course, my Hubby had 2 bottles! Yun Pa!). Too bad, Thea and family had to go home early. Mike missed some tracking device kwento from the Daddies. LOL!

Again, thanks to Abie for the nice Winnie the Pooh gift for Alex and the starbucks' coffee and GC which I grabbed from Apple (sorry, Apple! hihi...). Jody, for the polvoron and cake which I just discovered Alex loves so much. Joy, for the nice books for Alex. Jane for letting us use your house and for the cute giveaway and buko pie. Apols for the Estrel's cake that I can't get over. Jacqui and Jody for organizing the wonderful party. And for all the ladies who brought prizes for the baby shower games and (again) for all of you MBAPs (I think Kelly organized this one, thanks girl!) for the nursing bib. I really, really appreciate it!

Peachy and Jane, goodluck to us on our upcoming deliveries! ;)

See you again ladies!
