Eye Shadows + Huge Contact Lenses???

I bought Avon's recent brochure yesterday to check if there's something I would like to buy. Well, actually I only want to see it to satisfy my needs to window shop while I put baby Kelliyah to sleep... less tiring than to actually stroll in the mall, isn't it? hehehe

On the serious tone, It's been quite a while since I wanna try to copy Avon's models on applying eye shadows. I wonder how they make their eyes pop using 3 shades of the same color. I remember Korean and Japanese anime girls, with those big and colorful eyes, they look so pretty! Even Lady Gaga's eyes on her "Bad Romance" video seems huge but nice. So I did search for tutorials on how to achieve huge eye look and I came up with an AOL health article that describes how Lady Gaga appears to have really big eyes on her "Bad Romance" video. So it was a pair of contact lenses that does Lady Gaga's trick! The article says that teens, as Lady Gaga's numerous audience, are mostly the one trying to get the same look using online contact lenses with dangerous results. "A contact lens is a medical device and must be fit to he patient's eye," said Dr. Marc Werner, an ophthalmologist at Stahl Eye Center in new York City. "when it is not fitted properly, the patient risks everything from minimal discomfort to loss of vision related to a contact lens infection. Unfortunately, if vision loss occurs, it may be permanent. " Isn't it scary?? Err, too much for the huge eye drama I want to achieve huh? Oh I guess I'll just settle for the eye shadows now..hehe

It's creepy to have this not normal look, isn't it? What do you think?

My Baby Girl is here!

Finally, those sleepless nights and oh so tight tummy are over. My baby girl is here! And she is such a darling. I love her the first time I saw her, and I vow to savor her baby moments since I missed my eldest's growing up months coz I was too engrossed with my mild post partum depression.

I remember when I first saw Jian. He was like a stranger to me. I wasn't that excited to see him but prior to my delivery, it was the opposite. Hubby and I were so delighted shopping for our soon-to-be first born. Hubby was so eager to buy Jian's stroller and crib, and me on the other hand shopped for a lot of new born clothes that I wasn't considering my mom's advice that babies grow up fast and he won't be needing all the clothes I bought after 3 months. We just can't wait to see Jian in person back then. But when he came out, it was all a different story. I was easily irritated by his frequent cries. I can't wait for him to grow up and do things on his own. Little did I know that I'll miss holding his little body in my arms, singing him to sleep and waking in the middle of th night to feed him. Now, he's all grown up that I can't even kiss him whenever I want without him running away from me to play with his toys. I miss my baby boy.

But with my Kelliyah, my newly born baby girl, it should be a different story. I vowed to savor all the small details of taking care of my little angel. I don't want to miss her babyhood. I want to savor all the sleepless nights she cries for milk, because I know after 3 months or so, she will be crawling on the floor, learning how to stand and walking with her kuya Jian with lesser help from the grown ups. I wanted to enjoy her obedience, just like Jian does now, without missing her babyhood. My experiences with them both are way too different, but I love them equally with all my heart and soul. (They don't have any idea how special they are to me.)

Here's a picture of our 20days old baby girl, Kelliyah Angela.



And here's a picture of my two beloved kids, my little knight and little angel.

Jian Ezekiel & Kelliyah Angela

Aren't they so adorable? =)

Los Angeles Movers

I’m having a bad time sleeping these days. Baby is crowding the inside of my tummy and moving quite a lot. She’s a girl but make jabs and kicks much stronger than her big brother, Jian, when he was still in my womb. Sigh! Sleepless nights like these would mean a great conversation with a friend who is living on the other side of the globe.

My friend Monique, who is so meticulous and living in Los Angeles, had been talking great about this Los Angeles Movers after she moved from Santa Monica and into the city. The attention the crew had given to her belongings, which are all quite expensive and very sentimental to her, was the thing she definitely love about these LA Movers. I was quite intrigued about them, and checked out their site and found this LA Moving Company in Los Angeles. They offer free quotations which you can avail whenever you call their local number 1-323-692-1060.

I’m way too impressed. Even without checking their site, I know they are great since my friend would always had a bad thing to say to a lot of moving companies in the area. And I assure you I heard every reason from each company she made. And knowing the she found the one who knows how to handle her valuables well, I’m so happy and relieved that I can’t hear her mad complaining words from the phone from now on. =)

Lasik Surgery for Hubby?

Hubby is using his corrected eyeglasses for years now, and I'm quite scared whenever he forgets to bring it outside the house. I've heard from a colleague about this Lasik surgery which can help him see better without "the thing" he definitely wouldn't leave behind.

Lasik or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis is the most often performed surgery in the United States for correcting myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. Lasik is performed by ophthalmologists, such as Dr. Thierry Hufnagel using a laser. It is a viable alternative for those people who are using eyeglasses and contact lenses that's why I'm considering this for my hubby. Maybe we'll try to find a hospital near our area and canvass for the price of this surgery. I'll be into more investigative of this Lasik surgery starting now. *wink*

Life Insurance Los Angeles

Me and hubby have been eyeing for a few insurance companies which we can depend on. Us being freelancers, can’t assure of anything that most company gives to their employees. With all those benefits we can’t get, we are considering insurance companies just like Los Angeles Health Insurance for our family’s future.

A month ago, we visited a friend’s mom to gather some information about the insurance company she is employed with. Knowing that she’s been there ever since, we asked for something the same like Life Insurance Los Angeles. We were satisfied with all the information we got but of course, we haven’t got cash on hand so we did not pay for the plan we liked. So months past, me and hubby decided to put the insurance things aside as of now, and focus on saving for my baby’s delivery. But then, there comes yesterday when our godmother visited us and introduced Los Angeles Insurance and we were truly happy that we haven’t signed for the first one yet. It is way much better. I would definitely recommend it to my friends, and you too, dear reader.=)

If ever you too would like to get a free insurance quote from a licensed insurance agent of Los Angeles Insurance, you can call them at 1-800-475-6840.

The Power of Knowledge

Our son is at the peak of learning on how to speak. He can say more than 100 words I guess and slightly pronounce the ABC. We've been buying him books and colorful visual aids to stimulate his desire to read and speak. Ah, yes its definitely a joy to hear him speak his mind - he sometimes murmur out random phrases like he's telling a story in a different language.

He's definitely growing fast and soon he might even be able to share his knowledge thru the Internet like the site U-2-Me The Knowledge Exchange (www.u-2-me.com) or even start his own blog too! We're also letting him use the pen and paper to scribble and explore what he can draw with his hands. We're so blessed with a bibbo kid like Jian! i just can't wait to read all of his written stuffs too. =D
