Riley just had his first Trick or Treat yesterday & this was his costume 😀 Hello Guys! 🙂 It’s been a crazy busy month as I try to meet all my deadlines before flying to Singapore! I’ve been wanting to write a blog post but I: (a) eventually fall asleep while trying to put Riley […]
—-Contest Closed—- Blog Giveaway winners have been announced here. Thank you so so much to everyone who joined. 🙂 ‘Til the next one! 🙂 —— Hi Guys! I’m really happy I’m back on my blogging console more regularly now! I’m also laughing at how I thought this was going to be a chill week when I’m
I am trying to make a conscious effort of not starting this blog post (and every blog post this year) with “so much has changed in my life lately since Riley was born” but it has! Things just went into full circle this year and it’s as if motherhood is here to make me realize
I promised myself that as soon as the adult coloring book Around the World with the Googly Gooeys hits bookstores, I’ll be doing a blog post about its lighter side–it being a silly & a talkative 60-page activity-filled title just like its owners. 😀 Around the World with the Googly Gooeys has been released last
How are you guys?? It seems like a week ago, we were just in Cebu for less than 24 hours for a workshop and now another week is about to end again! Wahhh. Also, if you caught us on Facebook live, the photos here were shot last May and it’s as if I slept, woke
These days, I’m officially a member of the mombie (mom + zombie) society. It means that when everyone’s asleep, I get to have some guilt-free me time. I was supposed to blog last night but after putting my 20 pound 5 1/2 month baby to sleep, I just felt like my arms were made of
I never took sleep & water seriously until I became a mom. I didn’t know how much an hour or two of extra snooze time can bring back my sanity. Then, there’s water–the amount I drink determines how much food I can provide for my little Rye and the state of my health. Finally, omg…nicely drawn
Hello guys! 🙂 Thank you so much to all those who already got a copy of our travel coloring book, Around the World with the Googly Gooeys. Thanks for tagging us in your photos and updating us with the supplies and where you got them. 🙂 Keep on posting them artworks with the #GGcoloringbook hashtag
Well, this is it! I can’t believe I’m actually writing a blog post about our son Riley. These days, I’m always thinking “He’s here! He’s finally here!” But, days before I gave birth, after ten months of waiting, the thought of having a son was still an idea. I said I have yet to believe
Every morning, I wake up thinking that since there isn’t really much to do since I’m pretty much done with all the workshops, major events and exhibits. Then, the e-mails come trickling in, I discover that I have to devote so much time or errands while preparing for the baby and work on my last
So, Ponggo & I were talking the other day & we were thinking, what if the baby was born on Christmas eve or Christmas day? We were picking baby names and toying around with the idea of changing his second name to something else like Noel, Christian, Emmanuel and stuff? Then, we thought of names from Christmas songs like Rudolph, Daher, Prancer, Frosty (the snowman) or even Olaf as our friends suggested so at least it’s more updated thanks to the animated movie Frozen.
Wahh! It’s been more than a year since we’ve been to Amsterdam. I always felt guilty about not being able to blog about this! This was the last leg of our trip after the Big Blog Exchange last year. Fall was in full swing and the colors of the city were really pretty! I just
Somewhere between waiting to give birth and just having finished a project, I’m actually laughing about the title I just made. It’s as if I’m doing a feature of a product in the third person. Well, Around the World with the Googly Gooeys will be available in National Bookstore branches this week! 🙂 At first,
while I was doing this travel coloring book!
The book is comprised of sixty pages of coloring and activity sheets in geometric shapes and doodles! Most of the pages also have a QR code and a mini story so you can relive our travels with us through our blog posts. 🙂
The other day, I was busy fixing some quirks on this website. It felt like such a chore. It required me to visit most of our old posts. Anyway, as usual, I’d easily get lost and distracted and I would start reading older entries. Some would make me cringe I want to delete the whole
I don’t often talk about this here but before I started blogging, I was actually in the corporate world. I spent less than three years there but I wasn’t able to save properly. I realized, my earnings always went to coffee, a good lunch and monthly rewards for myself like dresses and things that are
When we launched the Oh Brighter Days collection last August, we just got home from our Singapore Workshop. Then, the months after that seemed to compete with each other in terms of schedule with the following happening: La Union Workshop Katipunan Art Festival New Workshop: Brush Lettering Meets Paper Cutting Watercolor and Lettering Workshop Work &
Sorry for being MIA here on the blog and Instagram lately. I spent the past few days catching up with some family time and preparing our tiny home for the newest member of our family. 🙂 I felt so adult when I bought a couple of drawers and groceries. It’s feels like bahay-bahayan but not with
The traffic in the Metro has really been crazy. Last Friday, it took us 2 hours & thirty minutes to traverse 7 kilometers. Whoaaaa! A couple of days before that, I ended up spending two hours on what could have been a 40-minute travel. Wahh! Every single time I’m stuck in that situation, I end
Since the Katipunan Art Festival, I found a renewed love for taking photos and I suddenly remembered why I really love blogging in the first place. Aside from sharing comics and personal stories now and then, I enjoy being able to freeze a few moments in time through photos. Since that day we had a
