i’m sharing with you today some photos of a baby-me with my very messy hair. i used to sport my hair very long since mum is one of those superstitious mum who’d like to have their children’s hair cut only when they turn a year old! yeah, I was still a few months shy of being one in this photo + haven’t gotten my very first hair cut yet!
my curls are in riot especially near my nape + they’ve grown a few inches more before i turned one that a lot of people are mistaking me for a girl! i even had it on ponytail for a while before I got a haircut.
mum won this toy from CDO Extreme‘s giveaway months ago + in case you’ve been wondering what this is it is a miyachi hand sack. you play with this tossing the hand sack (which is about a size of a regular nokia phone) + have fun catching it! this hand sack is made up of a sturdy cloth with beads inside.
now, i am still too little to actually play with this toy so mum + i gave it to my cousin, sean, instead, + he had loads of fun tossing the sack into the air + catching it, too. he uses his hands + feet for that. maybe when am a bit bigger i can play this toy with my kuya.
this is my share for toy stories of the week, what’s yours? ๐
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Straight Talk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
I know I am still a tad little to worry about having my own mobile phone or my own mobile plan as I rarely need to keep communication with my parents open (read: I am always with mum 100% of the time + if I go out, it is always a case of “you have everything you need” + I am always accompanied or tagged along by her, too :))
Am sure when I am a bit bigger, mum would be thinking of getting me my own phone + plan {if we can afford it probably} so that I may be able to reach her whenever the need arises + I am out of the house or maybeย call a friend to ask about a homework or a school project we are working on. I know mum will manage to find the best mobile phone plan deals so we can keep the communication lines open + still manage to save some in my savings account. Didn’t they sayย mom knows best all the time?
I hope by that time mum will find an offer very similar to Straight Talk’s “All You Need Plan.”ย It will be a good way to keep us connected even when we’re apart without burning a hole in my parents’ pocket.
With this versatile plan I can connect to my mum + dad, my aunts + uncles + cousins, + all my friends + mum need not worry about paying very steep fees, call friends + relatives abroad {if ever I’ll have some} at a very affordable rate, I can make unlimited calls, send as many text or picture messages as I can or even access the internet through my phone + mum would only have to pay $45 per month. + what is most amazing is that I get to choose a phone model from well-known trusted brands around + get to enjoy excellent reception + connectivity + a wide nationwide coverage.
Hmm, do you think I can ask mum for a mobile phone on my birthday? Nah, it is all wishful thinking for now but in a few years, who knows? ๐
making faces is one of the funnest things to do, not only will it help you pass away the time, it is also most entertaining + will make you + your loved ones laugh while you take turns doing it.
just trying to be funny ๐
a few weeks back, mum + i had nothing to do so she got the camera out + took these snapshots of me while i tried making these funny faces.
biting-my-lip look
it was actually very enjoyable + mum + i had a great laugh. she also tried to imitate the funny faces that i made but was not as successful ๐
my staring-contest look
it is actually very easy to do to, all you have to do is imitate a funny face made by your favorite cartoon character or your mum or anyone you saw recently + viola, you’ve just made a funny face all your own! ๐
my birthday is coming in a few days time + i know mum is very excited. but compared to last year’s bash, we are having a rather simple + memorable celebration this year! can you guess how are we going to celebrate my 2nd birthday?
well, maybe these amazing ideas can help you figure it out. here is a round-up of some of the most birthday celebration ideas that participants in our giveaway suggested:
minnie runner suggested i run in the 35th National Milo Marathon in puerto princesa. well the place is a bit far from us plus we do not have the budget to travel for now, but running is a great idea. i can use some unspent energy + i’d really enjoy running with my mum. she’d really love for us to join the recently concluded mommy milkshake but since we are quite far from the city, it will make it very hard for us to get to the venue on time ๐
mommy jes says maybe i’d love a costume or jungle-themed party, which i think i will enjoy a lit since i love animals, but as mum hinted no parties this year
mama dory suggests that i ask each guest to bring a birthday card for me. it will be fun reading them all out when i am a bit older. well, party or no party maybe i can still ask my loved ones to give me a card on me birthday, what do you think? ๐
mommy jan + baby xye suggest a trip to the amusement park, a dinner afterwards +, my favorite part, shop for toys! yay! i’d love to do this ๐
tita divine also has a great idea of celebrating my birthday by donating school stuffs to the less-privileged students. mum is reserving this idea for when i am older so i can fully appreciate + understand the gesture
according to ladymishel forย a unique birthday celebration, i should try going to a place i’ve never been to + have a great time exploring + travelingย with my family..hmm, who knows maybe we can do exactly that, right? ๐
