GENDER REVEAL :)

​I love the second trimester! Although there are still days I just feel tired, generally this has been the best season of this pregnancy so far. I am able to catch up on my backlogs in terms of government documents—SSS, Philhealth, and BIR. I pay my own remittances and taxes, so I really enjoyed and took advantage of the priority lanes. Baby bump is quite obvious now, so it's easier to avail of these without getting skeptic looks and side glances.

CONGENITAL ANOMALY SCAN

We initially planned on getting just a regular 2D ultrasound to know baby's sex. However, after careful consideration and upon the advice of my OB as well, we considered a CAS might be better to also know how baby is doing physiologically. What was initially scheduled at Week 20 was moved to Week 22 to be sure that baby's body parts are bigger and more visible during the scan.

HAPPY NEWS!

If you've been following this blog, you would know that I've been MIA for more than a year -- a year and a half to be exact.  I wouldn't bore you with reasons but trust me, there's a lot. Also, this means you will have to read at your own risk. There's a myriad of thoughts I'm trying to organize right now and you know how much I fail at it when I get excited, like I am right now.

If you have not heard the rumors yet nor have seen the hints dropped in different social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram).. YOUR BLOGGER IS NOW A BABY MOMMA!!!

Crabtree & Evelyn Facial Blotting Tissue

This has been in my kikay pouch for some time now (hence the decrepit pack). If you have been reading my blog, specifically the very rare beauty entries, you'd know I have an oily skin type. Hence, an oil blotting tissue is almost always the most needed tool I can't leave the house without -- Kleenex Oil Blotter to be exact. I have made a review on that in case you have not read it yet.

Woman of Worth: Angelyne Calica

For this particular WOW entry, I'm keeping it short, sweet, and simple. I'm featuring someone very close to my heart. Someone really dear to me.

Wildflour Cafe and Bakery Cronuts

If you haven't heard yet, Wildflour Cafe and Bakery will stop producing the famous croissant-donut hybrid effective end of this month. Needless to say, when this news reached my workplace, the girls and I had a mini heart-attack and some sort of panic. We came to an agreement to sample the intriguing pastry before it gets lost to oblivion. We did so last Monday at Podium.
