The Corrs

I always admire families  that are gifted with music just like The Corrs.  These four Irish siblings  is one of my favorite artists of all time. I love their songs and the fact that they can play different kinds of music instrument like  the yamaha drum set, violin, guitar, piano, keyboards and all others.  I wonder if both of their parents are  musical talented as well because they are all  very god artists.  Below is the video of their song Breathless, onle of my favorites of their songs.

Grades of my Burritos

My kids came home  last Friday with their  report cards.  Both of them have excellent grades which makes me very happy.  All that extra time  of studying with them is worth every minute.  Below is Ms. Burrito's grades/ratings for the second  grading.

The little man is doing great as well.  I am now at peace that my son would do as good as his sister does.  He just don't have that drive that she has but with me and my husband's guidance and help, he will  do very good (I hope).

Our son wants to be tested for the gifted program as well but I am not sure if he is ready for it.

Dance Moms

As much as I object for my 8 year old to watch  the TV show, Dance Moms, I can't because she like watching those girls dance.  So I what I would do is hold the remote and fast forward it whenever the Moms are having too much drama.  The latest episode showed where the group has to portray a diva attitude like Myley Cyrus so they have a microphonle  props.  I am sure that it wasn't the royer microphones at Guitar Center but they did a pretty good job in portraying the roles.

Simple Celebration

Our little man had a very simple birthday celebration.  Ever since he started going to school, we have been  bringing snacks at his  classroom instead of hosting a party at home.  Our neighbors (Howells and Fanchers) make his day extra special.  The homeroom Mom of the first grade also prepared something little for him which is really sweet!

We let him pick what he want for  his birthday.  He got a walkie talkie.  We  asked him if he wants and iPod as he was jealous of her sisters but he said he  changed his mind.

Music School

The Music teacher at my children's school sees something special at our daughter.  She said that Ms. Burrito has a rare talent and that she encouraged us to send her to  a different music school if we want  her to learn the proper way.  She told us that she will be contacting people  that she knows at Carnegie University to help our daughter out.  I just hope that it isn't something very expensive and we can't afford it.  I am sure that we won't be needing a   cheap amps at musicians friend but I am worried that  it is expensive.  Oh well, everything happens for a reason, right?

Birthday on the Weekend

We were invited to  Nathan's  first birthday party last Saturday.  We went to the mall that morning and bought the present.  It's been a while since we  attended a Filipino party so it was kind of weird but the kids had  so much fun playing with the kids.  Here are some of the shots I took of the children.

When their  daughter was little , I used to baby sit her but when she started to get active, I told  them that I can no longer do it as I couldn't do my job online.   We asked her if she still remember us and she said yes.

Flower Girl Dresses

If you are a  frequent reader of my blogs, you must know by now that my daughter, who is also my co-author on this blog, love to dress up.  I remember when she was still little, her favorite  thing to do is for us to play dress up.  We bought her a set of  Princess costume and she would wear them frequently.  She would always encourage me to dress up as well.  I can't believe that she is  growing up so fast.  I wish I could hold on to her and not let her grow up yet.  I will be missing some fun times.  This post is making me nostalgic and makes me want to cry.

Anyway, have you ever seen these lovely flower girl dresses online?  My oh my, they are super pretty!  Oh I wish my little girl can wear any of these as they are beautiful. They have so many designs that I love.  Below are just some of the most eye catching ones that  captivated  my eyes.  Seeing little girls dressed  beautifully  while they walk down the aisle during  weddings are just  precious moments.   I always admire  parents who get marry when their kids are old enough to be part of the ceremony.

This website have fabulous selection of   gorgeous dresses not only for  little girls but for  women as well.  I asked my daughter  which she would pick if she has to  wear a  flower girl's dress, these are her choices.

I told you, she loves BLUE!  Did you know what she told me next?  She said that Mommy and Daddy should get married again, lol!
