Getting a new couch out of my old one

Guest post written by Brenda Lewis
I've hated my current couch that I have for a while now. It's so incredibly comfy but it's in one of the ugliest fabrics that I've ever seen in my life. I'm not really sure why my husband talked me into getting this couch because it simply just looks so bad. But I've decided that I want to keep it because of its comfort. I'm just going to work on covering up the cushions in a contrasting fabric to make it look more modern and just better overall.
I looked online to see if I could find a way to do this and just to simply see if anyone else on a blog had done this project before. As I was looking through blogs, I saw a link for http://ClearWirelessinternet.com. I looked through it some and after that I decided to change over our home internet service to it.
I did find some directions on how to make the covers for cushions like that and I'm had at work on doing that. I think this is definitely going to be a piece of interest in our living room now.

I miss my father

noreply@blogger.com (ruby) — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 18:54:00 +0000

My Father is a driver Mechanic when he was in the Philippine Army, he used to fix his own vehicles because thats how it is there, the Government cannot afford to take all those trucks to a repair shop. He would spend so much time at their motor pool fixing those cars, he always comes home with him stainless steel tool box, smelling like a gasoline and his hands are dirty. I really admire him though because he works hard to be able to send us to school, he 's a good father to us, I miss him so much.

Anyway, I have a friend that lives in the State of Washington, her husband is working as an Engineer in one of the biggest Aircraft maker in the World. Her husband was in the Military before he quit and continue his study until he became an Engineer. A few months that company was using Alloy steel beams, as one of the parts needed for their airplanes. They also uses Titanium to make the aircraft very durable and lighter than most airplanes.

superman?

waiting for the dolphins

My Watery Wednesday entry for this week are these pictures taken at Panglao in Bohol beach Club. I wish to go back there one day and this time I would bring my two kids with me, I left Jaden to my mom when we went there because we booked the resorts honeymoon package, we wanted to be alone that time and my husband was on his R&R from Iraq.

Anyway, when I was young my dad used to bring me to his home town in Candijay Bohol during fiesta, The people in Bohol are very warm and friendly. I would definitely recommend everyone to visit Bohol, Philippines. It's a tourist friendly destination, its ideal if you want some private getaway with your loved ones, not so crowded unlike Boracay and of course there are a lot of things to do and other places to visit in Bohol like its famous Chocolate Hills.

Perry wont take formula milk

noreply@blogger.com (ruby) — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 03:40:00 +0000

My youngest son perry will turn 4 months old 2 weeks from now and i decide that I would stop breastfeeding and switch him to formula, but the problem is he wont drink a formula milk.. no matter what I do he wont take it, I got very frustrated because i didnt have this problem with Jaden, he likes taking formula after i stopped breastfeeding him before. Then I search online about how to switch breastfed babies into taking formula and i found some useful ideas on how to do it, but he is too smart that he noticed that I mixed his breast milk with formula. My friend told me also that the formula milk here in the States is not as sweet like in the Philippines, I need to stop breast feeding soon, my body is taking a toll on me, i have back pains and I cant really sleep at night. Oh please Perry take your formula milk ! please , please , please!! Mommy needs a break......

Immunization

noreply@blogger.com (ruby) — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 01:50:00 +0000

My youngest son received his first doses of vaccines at two months old recently, I had no idea what kinds of vaccine they are going to administer to him but I researched online and here's the Recommended Immunization Schedule for Children Ages 0-6 years old.

My oldest son's Immunization record from the Philippines is not accepted here because it's missing a lot number and the manufacturer information of the vaccines given to him, I asked my sister to get my son's record in our country but they said they can't do anything about it. So my son has to repeat every vaccine from the start, he needs to have an updated immunization record to go to school here.

no more diaper

noreply@blogger.com (ruby) — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 04:03:00 +0000

My son turned 3 years old last week and yesterday he stopped wearing diaper at night by himself, he has been potty trained but I always let him wear a diaper at night because I dont want him to wet his bed like what he did before when I tried not to let him wear a diaper before he goes to bed.
I guess Jaden is really growing up, Im so proud of him...

new blog

noreply@blogger.com (ruby) — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 00:08:00 +0000

This blog is dedicated to all the young and gorgeous mommies out there. At 22 I became a momma to my Jaden and honestly I had no idea how to take care of my son that time, I thought after giving birth that I can relax and its all over but I was so wrong , it was just a beginning of a journey raising my son.
