My Ilog Maria Loot!

My Ilog Maria orders arrived today via Air21. Ilog Maria is a honeybee farm which produces organic and natural products from bee's byproducts using purely natural methods. If you go to their 20,000 hectare farm in Silang, Cavite you can actually get a tour and they'll show you the bee life!

This is my first time to try their products, but I've read a lot of raves and good reviews from fellow Pinay bloggers. Being pregnant made me a sucker for organic products so I figured there is no better time than now to try these Ilog Maria products. Since almost everything is below Php100, I was so tempted to order more but I think I have to try out the products first before hoarding.

This is what I got:

• Propolis Gold 30ml
• Milk & Honey Soap
• Lavander Soap
• Kalamansi & Ginger Soap
• Spearmint & Oatmeal Soap (Also got for my brother)
• Stingless Citronella Mosquito Repellant (For Kaden)
• Propolis Throat Spray
• Propolis & Beeswax Lip Balm
• Propolis Toothpaste
• Honey Propolis Feminine Wash

I suddenly have this urge to take a shower right at this very moment. Gtg! :)

Eye Like!

A few months back, after the launch of the latest aluminum unibody MacBook & MacBook Pros, hubby asked me if I wanted to sell my old MacBook and get a new one. I was beyond tempted, but I told him that I think my MacBook would be with me for a good two more years. It's part of my "learn to save" goal, because I realized that it's not very wise to invest on gadgets which lose their value the moment you lay your hands on them, and all the more when a newer version is introduced.

I am a Mac convert. I don't even give the others a second look, much less a second thought. I once thought that hubby was too, but he always talks about getting himself Alienware one day because according to him Mac isn't gamer friendly and it won't work for his flight simulator games.

Well, I guess I thought that I was a Mac convert, because now I'm very interested in this:

Interested for me doesn't really mean I want it. For its price [VGN-P15 for Php 69,999 an VGN-P13 at Php 49,999], I still believe that a nice handbag would be a much better investment. ;)

Our 3d/4d Ultrasound At 29 Weeks

Last Tuesday, I had a 3d/4d scan of the newest addition to our little family. I never had one when I was pregnant with Kaden because my Ob-Gyn then convinced me that it's not important, so I had a congenital scan done instead. Now I feel bad that poor Kaden has no "in-the-womb" pictures like this one.

You gotta love technology these days! Imagine having to see what the baby really looks like this early on. Although, we all know that the baby's face changes really really fast. What he could look like at birth could be totally different from what he will look like in a week.

We actually did the scan for hubbylicious who was supposed to be home this month but had to stay in Dubai due to some circumstances. Problem is, the file is too big for me to send to him. It has been days and I still am not able to upload the video on youtube. This is the downside to being a mac user, you have limited programs to choose from if you want to downsize a file, or edit it to make it shorter.

So, my dear husband has no choice but to look at the pictures instead.

It was a great experience. In 40 minutes the baby has moved a lot! and we saw him grimace, yawn, smile, swallow, stick out his tongue, move his arms, cover his face, among others. It was fun to watch him, now I'm even more excited and impatient to give birth than ever!

Late Reaction!

He's sooo cute pala! Hahaha. Pero I'm not too keen on how he portrayed Edward Cullen on the movie, or maybe his gazes were a little bit too intent. Basta, I prefer how they depicted the character in the book, mas nakaka-kilig. I think its pretty OA how a lot of people swear they loooooveeee Edward Cullen after watching the movie, and become instant number 1 fans.

So Robert Pattinson is my newfound crush, not for his role in Twilight, but because I just realized how handsome he really is.

This first picture is my absolute fav.

Baby Boy Update!

From Babycenter.com

How your baby's growing:

By this week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of her head to her heels. She can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes. With her eyesight developing, she may be able to see the light that filters in through your womb. She's also developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.

There are 79 days until your due date on April 15, 2009.

You are 201 days pregnant.

You are 6.6 months pregnant.
You are in your 7th month of pregnancy.
Your 1st trimester: July 09, 2008 to October 07, 2008. (0 - 12 weeks)
Your 2nd trimester: October 08, 2008 to January 19, 2009. (13 - 27 weeks)
Your 3rd trimester: January 20, 2009 to April 15, 2009. (28 - 40 weeks)

Gosh! It feels like forever until April.

Guess list

A director got so exasperated with an actress during their shoot for a TV ad. She was supposed to have a long spiel promoting the product. But even after endless rehearsal takes, the actress could not enunciate the words properly. So Direk had no other recourse but to scrap all her lines except one.

“Ang ikli nalang nga nung sasabihin niya, palpak pa din,” revealed an ad agency insider. “May problem talaga siya sa diction. Kaya no choice yung client. They aired the ad even if they’re not exactly satisfied with her way of speaking.”

The sought-after actress is better seen than heard. EARittating eye-candy?

I wonder if this is the commercial being talked about.

"Byutipul".

Depressed!
