And so it's Christmas once again and my list doesn't end at all... seems to me so I am writing this, serves as a reminder that there is a lot more to give and a lot more to receive??? =)

1. Get my annual dental cleaning.
2. Get A toy for Baby Adi.
3. A perfect foundation for makeup jobs.
4.

Ever since I've been a mom to Adi, I've had to go several routines most especially that I am a working mom.
I know I had to specially knowing for the fact that babies have that their baby routines and changes as they grow up.

Ah, the Joys and Joys of motherhood. =)

As of the moment, Adi sleeps very late, sleep transitions from 7 pm to now 11 pm.
I have to lull him to sleep and put him on my legs just for "lalong" what we usually do is like rocking him but instead of a rocking chair I use both of my legs and sway from left to right and vice versa. He's gone heavier since then and I had to endure a lot of back pains (as far as I could remember.)

His waking moments are about from 6 am to now 8 am, which brings to my attention that he is our live alarm clock, it's a bit funny since I wake up to him pinching my cheeks eyes or just slapping my face. He is still breastfed for at most already 1 year and 5 months already since Aug of 2012.

Going to the office early has been an option for me now. I know I had to move faster so I can make up for lost time and head to office before 10 am. So, what I do I take him up on watching this, Monster's University. I think I have seen this for the nth time already. haha! But it is fine, I loved it too just like my Adi does, too.




While he watches, ( a few meters away of course to protect his gentle eyes ), I hurry up and take my bath, change, prepare and head on to the office often skipping my breakfast just to be able to get early and knock off early so I can get to him, cuddle, play, breastfed, give him his vitamins and then watch Monster's Inc or Monster's University and the list goes on and on, whichever comes first.

I know that my life will never be the same again, that I don't get to read my fave novels often and spend more time being with friends. But, I will never trade it for anything. Being a mom is way cooler and tougher but what the heck it's pure fun. =) Just like what this quote from momcenter says:

who doesn't love being a mom?

Hi there! As you may have noticed, I have an updated new blog title! =)

Well, I have this insanity running inside my head that you may notice I get to update the title of my blog for quite a few times hence the watermark of some of my photos changing from time to time.

For now, I am still using my original site address name colorfull bliss. thinking of keeping it for the sake of site visits and ranks. *wink* Since blogging really is becoming my bliss naman pud.

Yo, Momma! is the my new blog name. And I am really hoping that I can keep this for the longest permanent time and maybe use it when I finally get my new domain. yomomma.com would sound OK pero hopefully dili pa ni siya taken nga address ( hope this address is still not taken). *wink!

Anyways, Yo, Momma! from the queen city of the south will still be blogging about my life lessons as a new mother, my misadventures from work, my beauty finds, my never ending Ukay-Ukay hauls and new interesting homemade crafts for all mommas or not mommas out there.

I hope you that you still keep visiting my blog. I will look forward to hearing from you soon in my next posts!

Ciao!

I came across this on pinterest and i am so loving this mantra. This is really so true.
preparing for a wedding is not easy but stress it out and just focus on the sole purpose and heart of the ceremony. =)

If you haven't known, I took up Engineering way back 2003 to take up ECE (Electronics Engineering).
Yeah, I know this is a bit off from this beauty blog. *wink* I hope this post will help you somehow.

I was not really interested to take up that course since It never came to my mind ever since to become an engineer. This all happened when I passed the scholarship examination for DOST (Dept of Science and Technology) here in Cebu, Philippines.

I was glad, I passed the exam! And after five years.... Bam!


You know, I have always wanted to take up medical course or something like Psychology.
Anyways, If you reached the full term of service and would want to file for your FINAL CLEARANCE, below are the requirements:

• Photocopy of TOR (Transcript of Records)
• Photocopy of Diploma
• Photocopy of Certificate/s of Employment (equivalent to the number of years you enjoyed the scholarship)
• Letter of Intent (addressed to:
• Elizabeth Fontanilla - Director, ALS - DOST and Officer-in-Charge, SEI

• DOST Tracer Form (available at DOST Region 7 Office, Sudlon Lahug Cebu)

Submit all your documents to the office, and the staff will do the filing for you. Since the documents will be submitted to the Main Office in Manila. Wait for two weeks and your most awaited final clearance should be crisp and ready.

You may also call their office at (032) 418-9055.

Good Luck! =)

It was out of the blue, unplanned getaway that we had last December of 2011. I had the perfect time to visit a resort finally in Danao. It is a well managed resort I must say plus the place is really clean and the rooms are great as well. Cable TV is available except that at that time we went there WIFI was not really a need since smartphones were in-existent for us then.

We arrived there at around 10 in the evening and then went about our usual preparation and booked ahead obviously since it was peak season.

The room that we got was the Garden View Standard photo credit to El Salvador website.

 LOCATION

Elsalvador Beach Resort is located in the heart of the Philippines- the central visayas region. It sits on the eastern coast of mid-north Cebu, 33 kilometers north of Cebu City, particularly situated in barangay Sabang, Danao City, Cebu province, Island of Cebu. The resort enjoys the cool breeze and the charming sunrise of the east. The resort is very accessible being located along the northern coastal road of Cebu, 50 minutes of sight seeing ride from the Cebu international Port and 45 minutes from Mactan-Cebu International Airport. Danao City's business district is just 10 minutes of an enjoyable motorized tricycle ride from the resort.

We enjoyed our stay plus the staff is very accommodating. We loved the food as well.
