Back to School Promo

t_1062_02 by you.

When it comes to great promos for prescription eyeglasses, this $ 8 Rx eyeglasses that I saw over at Zenni Optical on TV!!! Is one of those deals you can never pass up! Well, me and the husband wears prescribed eyeglasses and right now, I am looking a new one. I'm just a little ecstatic because the price is way cheaper and they're using quality frames with full UV protection so you can be sure that it's not just some cheapo ones! It comes with a full guarantee and I've read that it has an anti scratch coating! Now, if you have kids that also wear eyeglasses this is the time to grab this back to school promo! I say, High Five to Zenni Optical for such a great offer!

For the Future

The husband has been traveling for months now. Later this year he is scheduled to hit the European countries. And I just wished I can go with him. But then again, I still have to do more important things now. There's something in the works aside from the lil biz that we have. I'm just thankful that everything fall into places. Of course, there are little worries and all but that's life! So anyway, while cleaning and arranging his tons of files in his desk, I noticed the files about our stocks. Not really sure if it was that but he mentioned a while ago about this options that he wanted to use because of the many good reviews about getting the right profit and really helpful in sorting, managing, analyzing the thousand optional stocks and more options to get the profit margin you wanted! I might as well check on this too when I have more time.

How can I get my toddler to nap longer?

Saw this over at Babycenter while looking for tips and ideas for my lil boy and thought this is very helpful!

Know your toddler's sleep patterns. If you put your toddler down before he's ready, he may just catnap. If you put him down too late, he may not sleep well because he's overtired.

Every toddler has his own sleep schedule. Most toddlers start out taking morning and afternoon naps of about an hour each, then transition to one longer afternoon nap of two hours or more. Others don't nap at all but go down earlier for the night. Both scenarios are completely normal. Use trial and error to figure out when your toddler's ideal nap times are, then try to stick to them.

Rethink your nap-time routine. Some toddlers who wake up early from their nap will go back to sleep with a little encouragement, such as a loving pat. But if your toddler's waking up cranky and staying awake, the problem might be that he doesn't know how to fall back asleep on his own.

Think about how he's going down for his nap. Do you rock him, nurse him, or let him nod off in your arms? Helping him find ways to soothe himself to sleep as part of your nap-time routine may solve the problem.

Make sure your toddler's napping place is quiet, dark, cool, and comfortable. If he's sleeping on a mat in the living room rather than in his bedroom with the shades drawn, it's likely that his nap won't last as long. In general, children nap best in the same place where they sleep at night.

Consider dropping a nap. True, moving from two naps to one means your toddler is sleeping less overall during the day, but the remaining nap is likely to be longer. If your toddler's waking up early from his morning or afternoon snooze, that may be a clue he's ready to switch to a single nap. Most toddlers make the transition between 12 and 18 months.

Cancun,here we go! :)

Right now, one of my favorite things to do is to check out travel deals and guess what I saw is this romantic cancun vacation! I think, I really deserve a day off being a Mommy and a Wifey,right? :) I’ve heard so much about Cancun from friends who got there already. Raves and photos of that beautiful place has been in my minds this past months. Like last summer a friend of mine got there and all I did was wowed with their beautiful photos! Someday though, I’d love to go there! Or maybe soon! Somehow, this hot weather makes me want to just jump off in a crystal water pool or beach and I’m sure those Karisma Hotels has those beauties! I’ve read that Karisma Hotels is a collection of divinely favored properties on secluded white-sand beaches on the Mexican Riviera Maya. Sounds really interesting too!

Rediscover What you Love Most

1. Begin with some time in solitude.
Find a quiet place to dream. When life spirals out of control and I lose sight of what I love about life, I usually find I haven’t taken any time out for solitude. I need to get away to be alone with my thoughts and to pray.

2. Get a journal and make lists of things you used to love.
The simple process of writing things down makes a big difference for me in finding clarity of thought. Seeing the things I love on a list makes everything feel possible and doable. I love to make lists like my 20 Little Things to jumpstart my thinking.

3. Create daily and weekly rituals out of things you love.
Find ways to incorporate in to your life those things you love most. Make embracing them a regular part of living — don’t let any one or any thing stand in the way! When you take the things you love and elevate them to a daily or weekly ritual you’ll find all the more pleasure in them as you look forward to those experiences on a regular basis!

4. Slow down.
Fill your days with activities that slow you down (yes, the opposite of what we tend to do!) and allow you to appreciate and savor moments of beauty.

5. Embrace simplicity.
Life as we know it is continually filled with new and complicated things. Our phones, our computers, our calendars, our TVs, even our washer and dryer seem to require an advanced degree to be able to use them. And those are the things invented to make life better and easier! Just when we master some new electronic gadget, they crash or the new model comes out and we are frustrated again.

Move away from the complicated as often as possible and enjoy things in their simplest, purest forms. Go back to some of the rituals and pleasures your grandmother might have enjoyed, before life moved into the fast lane.

6. Live life on purpose — dare to incorporate the things you love into your life.
You can do this! Being an adult doesn’t just mean we can have dessert before dinner and stay up until 10PM. It means we can live out the things we’ve always wanted to do.

Randomness

1. What is your worst personality trait?
+ I am bossy. Everyone in the family knows that. I get angry when I asked someone to do things and they won’t do that for me right away..lol But now that I don’t have a nanny. I can’t asked someone except myself..:D

2. What is your best trait?
+ I am generous. I give everything. Even if there’s nothing left for me. And even if I don’t have for myself.

3. Who is your hero?
+ My parents and the husband.

4. What has always been your dream or goal in life? Have you achieved it?
+ I have always said I wanted to become a flight stewardess. It’s true. But it was not really what I aim for. When I went home for vacation months ago, I checked my highschool yearbook and I said there that I wanted to become an Engineer! Yup, I become one. I am proud of myself:)

5. Describe yourself, use 3 words.
+ I am Beautiful! hahaha No one will say that except me;)
