Merry Christmas!!!!

Christ the Savior is Born!!!!!hmm how many more sleep til christmas? let me count. wow! 4 more sleep and it will be christmas.. did you guys finished doing your christmas shopping? well well well i know everybody is very busy... i myself was bussy shopping for christmas too..it took me days before i get what i think is a perfect gift for my fmily here in US.To tell you the truth it's really hard to shop when you dont know what to buy..its also hard to give something to the person that almost had everything they want.i mean am talking about the family of hubby here.coz my family back in pinas. I never got a hard time looking for a perfect gift for them coz they pretty much need a lot of things. I can easily come up with an idea what to get for them or what to give them..but when it comes to giving gift to my husband's family..men! it will give me a headache and will cost me all day of shopping but still i cant figure out what to get for them...just the other day at last i got something for them...it's not that expensive but i'll pray they will like it...today, i'm done placing it in a christmas bag and have it ready for christmas...

Whew! christmas,christmas,christmas...i cant really wait for the christmas eve to come for many viable reason..1st is, i am so excited what i'm gonna get this christmas..hahaha i am just like a little girl ,with full of happiness on my face everytime we sit in my parents inlaws couch and start giving and receiving our gifts...this is one of the reason why i loved christmas...lolz coz i love to get something from the others for free.. second is.. all the people were nice..i know the one reason why..christmas is a time to love,share, and give...

anyhow this will be my 3rd christmas here in USA..but this christmas is the most enjoyable.fun and memorable christmas for me...this is the only christmas in which i met a lot of friends and have fun with them..Just last sunday dec.17,2006. me and my filipino friends had our filipino christmas party..my friend bernadeth prepared a games for us and it was her good and kind hubby who give the prizes..as in all of us na enjoy jud..pati mga bana...i think that was there first time seeing us and playing with us with our filipino games...

i still remember the confusion that was registered to titings hubby when titing give him the talong unya naa hikot and have it tied around his waist..as in libog jud sya unsa daw ni klasie na dula..me too i have no idea unsaon to pagdula ang talong..pero mag libot diay ming mga babae and when the music stops to play we have to hold the talong na nagbitay sa imong partner...
bast lagi ang mga lalaki nag kuha namo sa talong mo iktin gud basin magunitan namo ang ilaha...lolz...we played like 4 games and we ended the party with the exchange gifts...that was really really fun..i just met some of them who attend the party that day..but we act like we meet each other for a long time and been a very close friend...tanan jud me participate sa games that's why everybody had fun...

we planned to do it again next christmas pero lain napud ang mag host..
bitaw above is our pics..it was a proof and remembrance of the fun we had...

i also wanna share to you the video of my baby singing a video k..daya kaau among video k naka 86 akong anak na puro ra ahhh ahh ang kanta...but me sometimes it will give me a 79..waaah asa kaha ang justice ana...lolz..pero enjoy baya kong naa ka koyog mag video k..since my bro and sis are not here to sing with me..si elijah nalang akong partner...heheheh

Update..

You better watch out! you better not cry, you better not pout am telling you why..Santa clause is comin to town!!!! HO!HO! Merry Christmas to All!!!

hay sensya na kayo ha...it's been a while since i update my blog..golly life was really really busy..plus my computer's really really suck..i cant even go to each of your house and read your entry.somtimes it went thru but when i try to put a comment on it. palagi nalang page cannot be displayed..pero ok na lahat ngayon..my hubby fixed my computer ..so here! i am back to my online world...salamat talaga sa lahat ng nag ewan sa akin ng mga message..di nyo talaga ako nakalimotan kahit wala update bahay ko..nabasa ko lahat ng nilagay nyo sa tag board ko..salamat talaga at pasensya na at di ako nakabisita ang mga bahay nyo..asides from being so busy lately, sira then and computer ko..

Anyway, everybody knows that i went to the philppines because of my grandmas' death..bakit kaya lahat ng kasayahan me kapalit na kalongkotan..i was just very happy that day..it was sunday..the sun is up.the weather was a little bit chilly but perfect to be outside..i am so excited beacuse for the first time of this season we're going to the cowboys stadium to watch my team playing in real..as in i was very excited..cant wait to see my favorite player giving us a touch down...they played with the very tough team this season..yup! they played with the CULTS..hubby said they never lost yet..therefore we only had a slight hope for my team to win..its not that my teams not good pero pinalitan kasi yong quarter back namin and this will be his second game sa bago naming quarter back ..well ok lang kahit matalo sila..i will still have fun...fortunately for the first time of this season the CULTS lost and it was my team who beat them..and i am there in the stadium cheering my team for a touch down..wowoow it feels like a superbowl game for us..we are very much happy. We are still wearing the smile on our face..still enjoying the fun we had just experienced as we get into the car and drive home..the baby was being a good boy too..he didnt cry and just enjoying himself hwearing the people shout and clap..and as a baby who likes to imitate, everytime he hears the people shout, he shouts too. and if he hears the people clap he claps too..

we arrived home and I immidiately went to my computer to tell everybody the good news..my team won..but that same time a window pooped up infront of me..it was my sister...later on i knew that my favorite grandma had passed away..i dont know how to react...ang dali namang binawi yong kaligayahan ko..di talga ako makapaniwala na wala na ang lola ko..excited pa naman akong ipakita sa kanya si elijah..we planned to visit my family in the philippines this june..plano ko na na di ako mag summer kasi nga uuwi kami..tapos di na nya makita anak ko..so i told my hubby that i wanna come home and see my lola for the last time..and i did..i was really thankful for my husbands support...kahit mahal yong binayaran namin sa ticket ok lang...travelling alone by myself was a good adventure for me.first time ko pa kasing mag travel na ako lang mag isa..pero kahit na nilakasan ko nalang yong loob ko..ang importante makaabot ako sa libing ng lola ko..i told my mom na uuwi ako..everybody was shocked..i got lucky to get a ticket immidiately and be able to get a flight going to the philippines the following day...dumating ako sa amin..mama lang yong naka-alam tsaka sis ko and my uncles who took care of my grandma na uuwi ako.me going home para sa lola ko, turned out to be a blessing too..God really has a plan for everything..kasi ang gusto ng mga anak ng lola ko. ilibing nalang sya at di na sila uuwi. as in i felt really bad to know that..kaya lalo akong nag pursege na makauwi.the moment they knew na me who is here in USA.uuwi para sa lola ko.they felt insulted..uuwi nga ako na dito sa USA sila pa na nandon lang sa pinas..kaya lahat ng mga anak ni nanay nag siuwian..it was just a beautiful reunion on my lola's kids..i heared my uncle said..yong pinakapanganay na ..he never saw hs younger brother for 20 years.and tagal.mga busy kasi.As expected, kasi ako yong galing america i payed for my grandmas burial..ok lang basta nandon sila lahat.my grandma died at the age of 85.matanda na..and guess what! i was really impressed and surprised when i opened a little book and found out that it was a diary of my lola..as in di ko akalain me diary pala ang lola ko..she wrote there lahat ng mga significant event and date sa buhay nya...nandon pa yong birthday ko...yong nanalo sila ng jai-alai..lols..tapos nandon yong date ng pagkamatay ng dalawa kong kapatid..al the sad and happy times she experienced was all there in her little diary..to tell you friends she has a very good penmanship..as in ganda ng hand writting nya..anyway she rest in peace and i am sure she will be in heaven someday..

i enjoyed the rest of my stay there with my family..as in we went to cebu para mag shopping..ang dami kong nabili..ang dami ko ring nabili for my brothers and sisters...lahat kami nag enjoy..tong mama ko lokoloko..kahit one week na ako sa amin..sabihin ba naman na i need to hit her daw kasi para pa raw syang nanaginip..di parin sya makapaniwala na nandyan ako sa harapan nya..bumili ako ng magic sing..of course binili ko yon para dito sa america..pero ginamit muna namin sa pinas..waaaahh we had a lot of fun...nawala na yong longkot ko sa lola ko...i knew masaya na sya kong nasaan man sya ngayon...

i came back here in USA with the feeling of excitement to be with my son and hubby again...iba talaga pag me pamilya kana dito..i feel really at home nong dumating na ako dito and be able to hugged my baby and kissed my hubby..ang sarap ng feeling...and of course it was a good break for me..tho' i will never see my lola again..the memories of me coming there for her burial and for the little reunion we have in my lola's side will always be remain in each of our heart...sulit talaga yong money na na gasto ko..
cge cge will just share to you the pics i took in the philippines...i need to bail out now para naman mabisita ko naman yong mga bahay nyo..dami ko pang e catch up..see you all in your house..mwaaahh

Month of NOVEMBER..

HALA!hala! kadako sa gagamba sa akong balay oio..ggrrr hapit ko la ka sulod dah tungod sa cobwebs..lolz..hmm hala a billion of sorry to all of my friend out there k la pa jud ko ka bisita sa inyong mga balay..bitaw very busy jud si mommy karon pa jud tawon ko ka ginhawa..hagoroy...
A billion of thanks to my friends too who keep on visiting my house..as in your thoughtfullness was really appreciated..I was very occupied for this past weeks which is the reason why wala ko time mag update sa akong blog..

Well, Well, Well..month of november..This month is very significant to me...it is very very special for me..let me tell you why...Nov.13,1981 my mother delivered a baby girl and they named her janine ivy..hahahah ako yan..i grew up in to a young lady and at the age of 23 i met my hubby online. Nov.21,2004 was the date when i exchanged vows to the only person i loved.to the person who i think is my soulmate and the one that God prepares for me. My heart was full of joy as we promised each other infront of God and to the people who witness our wedding that we will love each other, take care of each other in richer or poorer, in sickness or health till death do us part,.(char).Nov.28,2005 was the happiest moment in my life. that was the day when God completed me and turn me into a real woman..a woman that is capable of bearing a child.a woman who is fruitful. that was the day when i deliver the fruit of our love. I gave birth to my handsome boy Elijah Gregory Gohl... I cant explain the feeling i felt when i first saw his animated face..a face that has full of life..and when i held him in my arms, all i can think was to thank God for giving me this priceless gift. within the month of november i am going to celebrate three special moments of my life..my bday, my wedding day, and for giving birht to my son elijah.

hehehe can you see the connection of dots why i am so very much busy this past few weeks..yeah besides my study, i was very occupied organizing with my baby's bday party...i am so very busy contacting people who i think willing to let me used their hands for my baby's big day. i also try to gather all the addresses of the kids that i plan to invite..i gather almost 30 of them. i dont know if all of them will come but we just need to be prepared.deciding the theme and everything.We wont celebrate my baby bday party in our house but instead we're going to have it in our church fellowship hall..our house is not big enough to accomodate all the visitors..we dont have much space for the kids to enjoy...pretty much everything is ready..the invitations will be sent out this monday...give aways are ready and of course games..hope the kids will have fun that day..my hubby said that he will take care of the food so i think that makes things a lot easier for me..preparation of foods will really stress me out.

Enough with elijah's party am done with it..hahah it really took me two weeks to figure it out what i'm gonna do..at least everything was already planned..anyway i cant wait for my semester to be done..grrr one more exam and the semester is over..time really ran so fast..it seems that the semester had just started and now its almost over..hay dali ra gyud kaau ang panahon..

btw last wednesday we read a very interesting article...i consider that article as an eye opener not only for me but to all the people that read that article..it was a story about steve jobs ..actualy it was him who wrote that story.. steve jobs is a very successfull man in the field of busines who didnt finished his college. he also came from a lower class family..he was just sleeping on the floor of his friends room and will return a coke bottle for a 5 cents deposit for food. Now, steves jabs is aCHEIF EXCECUTIVE OFFICER of apple company..he was also the one who build the apple company..I think the apple company was a very well known company..one of their most popular product is IPOD. in the story it was steves and his friend who first started the apple...he started apple at the age of 20 in their garage. their company was successfull and become a multi billion dollars company.. the most interesting part, he got fired from the company he build..can you believed that?..yeah i dont understand too.. how can you get fired from the company you build..in the story steve hired a person who he thinks knowlegable enough to run the company..and that guy turned around and fired him..anyway it was the lowest point of his life..he dont know what to do..i understand what he felt..if you get fired from the company you built am sure you want to commit suicide..lolz..but steves didnt do that, instead he take that experiece as his stepping stone and turn the negative side to positive..he said that being fired from apple was a blessing to him because it gives him a chance to start a new one..yes, after getting fired from apple, steve went on and start a new business..he was the one that build the NEXT and PIXAR Company which both a very succefull in business.I dont know what NEXT company is but I know what pixar is.. pixar is the world's first computer animated feature film, toy story, and is one of the most successful animation studio in the world. I saw some of their movies and it was really intertaining.anyhow the apple came in and bought the pixar company and now steve is back again in apple..very confusing ha..but that's what he said in his story.. there were three things he said to encourage his reader and that really captured my attention too.

1. Dont waste your time living in someone else's life. Dont be trapped by dogma- which is living with the results of other people thinking. Dont let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have courage to follow your heart and intuition. they somehow already know what you truly want to become.

2. Live each day as if it is your last. what are those things you want to do today if you will die tommorrow...

3. STAY Hungry! stay Foolish! that was actually the title of his story..what does he mean by that? for me, i think you have to stay hungry for the things you love to do..for you to keep doing it..and sometimes in our life we need to be silly..heheh sometimes we have to get out from the shale were in and just be ourself even if it look like stupid in the eyes of the others.dont be scared to try and experiment just to find the things you love to do.simply do what you love to do..dont waste your time doing the things you dont want to do...Life is so short..we should enjoy every second.minutes of it...

steve jobs is so successfull in his career until now for one reason..he loves what he's doing and he enjoy doing it...


haha bitaw mura jud ko naka pamalandong aning mga polonga..i dont know if nursing or working as a nurse is what i want to do for the rest of my life..but it does captured my attention and makes me want to try...wala man mawala nato kong mo try ta diba...hahahaha nahimo man gani ni steve jobs..we can do it too...

cge cge mo out nako.. mo bisita nako sa inyong mga payag..pastilan dako na kaau ko utang taga pa li-og na..ako sa ni hinay hinayon ug bayad...thanks for reading..mwaaaahhh

10 moa old pics of elijah

Hi everyone! Here I am again. I want to update my blog with the 10 mos pic of my baby..hehehe late huh! he is almost 11 mos right now and is growing up so fast. I think all babies do.
How's your weekend? Ours was not good. My baby's been sick since Sunday. He had a fever and we find out last Wednesday when we bring him to his doctor that he had ear infection. Poor baby! Yeah, I felt sorry for him too. It’s not really easy when your baby will get sick. It seems that you mother want to carry the pain that your baby was carrying. I could tell that he has a hard time breathing because of his cold. Thanks God for the antibiotic, It really helps him to sleep well during night time and helps him to breath comfortably.Everything was fine now. All was back to normal as it used to be. My baby was playing and eating well so that makes things more easier.He still have running nose but at least he has a medicine to take.

Our week’s not that awful. Though’ I am sad that my baby was sick but I am so happy in the other hand that my football team COWBOYS won the game last Sunday. I am really happy. I was so scared when the game was started coz my team was not doing well. Texans were not supposed to be a good team this season and my team should be kicking their butt so hard. But grrrr the Texans got to score of three in the first quarter and my team was nothing as in 0. I felt unburden when the cowboys scored and show the real game to the Texans. They won last Sunday’s game with the score of 30 something for the Cowboys and 6 for the Texans. Their next game will be this coming Monday. It will be a home game and again I’m pissed off coz I have a class and for the third time we cant go to the stadium, and guess what? I can’t even watch the game even on TV because of my class. WHY? Why? Why? Well it’s okay for me as long as I come home with the news that they won! This will be a tough game for them coz they’re going to play with the New York giants. As what I’ve heard their a good team too. Hmm I trust my team. If Bledsoe won’t be pressured and won’t make an interception again, I am sure they will be kicking the giants butt so hard.
For this coming Monday, again I will cross my fingers for my team to win. How I wish I can watch their game but can’t afford to miss my class. Hehehe need to prioritized my future or else……tsk tsk tsk
Bitaw adto sa ko mga mega oio…have fun viewing my baby’s pic..hapit sa ko sa inyong mga balay para mag samok samok..babuuuu…

Sad Sunday

Grrr it was a very depressing and so upsetting sunday. Today is the cowboys homegame and i've been looking forward to be in the stadium to cheer for my team.BUt the weather didn't cooperate.I wake up with the rain outside and one thing for sure we'll gonna missed the homegame again.
I was really upset and dont even want to talk to my husband..but anyhow that's life. we can't go to the stadium with the baby with us under the rain.i"ll just gonna watch the game at home and hope for them to win..I will crossed my fingers that bledsoe will do good in throwing the ball today..He really sucks the last game.I dont want him to have an interception again..
OK i gotta go my friends..time to sit and watch the game..GO! GO! COWBOYS!

Hi! How are you all doing today? yeah, i know it's been a while since i update my blog.However i want to thank all my friends who visit my site and and leaved their comments. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness and also for spending time to read my entry.


I want to grab this opportunity to express my special gratitude to carlota aka "chocolate" for sharing her talent to me.She is the one who build my house here in blogspot and and i really love all the stuff that's in here.all the things was placed in a right spot..it is really admirable..Thanks again dae carlota.You just dont know how much I appreciate your effort to make my site a better place to stay.


I am sorry friends if i just got time to update my bloig.whew! life is really busy as in.But well there's always time for everything right? so now, i got time to sit here infront of my computer and try to make some update in my blog..hehehe bag-o ra ba ni akong balay.BTW i dont have much to share. Life is still the same.This past few week is been a busy week. i was very occupied with my study and was just done taking all my exams the other week. Thanks God i made A's in all of my subjects and their were only two of us who got A in my algebra subject..hehe i didn't impressed my hubby coz the exam was really easy..Even if you dont study as long as you do your assignments and put in your mind all the things that was dicussed inside the classroom, you can pass the exam. and take note, the type of exam is multiple choice, so pretty much all the answer was provided, you just have to pick the right one.I am really happy with my exam results. I still keep on praying that God will continue to bless me until the end of the semester.


With regards to our life here, we're doing good so far. the baby is growing up so fast and did learn some different cute stuff like waving his hand for bye,bye. he will tell you NO by shaking his head. he also like to give you a kiss if you ask him to do so. He still love his mouth pleasure..everything will goes to his mouth..want to taste everything, no matter what it is, as long as he can hold it. One neat thing that i like is when he run towards me with an open arms,with a sweet smile on his face and give me a big hug every time i come home from school.The feeling was really great that it vanished all the stress and did give me a new reason to be happy.He do that everytime i come home from school. just imagine the face of a little child running towards you with a sweet smile on his face. I am sure it will melt your heart.


Ohh i have one cute story to share. It was one saturday when we arrived at the church late.So, we decided to just stay in the mother's room for the reason that we dont want to disturb the service by opening the church door and will cause the people to look behind.Few minutes after, the door opened and i saw a couple coming in with their 8 mos old baby girl.As soon as they managed to sit infront of us, my baby's start to move. He dont want to be held anymore. He kick his legs and try to move my arms away from him. It give me a hint that he want to be put down..so i put him down and let him do what he want to do.At first he look at the girl that was in a walker.and suddenly he walks towards her and just give her a kiss. I was so shocked when i saw him doing that coz nobody told him to kiss that little girl. and guess what's the little girl's reaction. after elijah kissed her she just giggle and burts herself to laugh. as in, the moment my baby saw her smilling he gives here another kiss and by this time both of them are laughing. They just filled the roon with their laughter and we cant help ourself but to laugh with them. elijah kissed her again and laugh. It was really a cute scene. too bad none of us mistakenly bring a camera. it would be a nice picture of them as a sovenier.Anyway this coming sabbath i'll try bring my camera and will take a picture of elijah and that baby girl.



I put his 9 mos old pic above and i do hope you'll have fun viewing it. He was just a preciouse baby and We really thank God for giving us such unmeasurable blessing.He is one of the best thing that was happen to our life. He really make our house a home.


I need to go now. time for blog hopping..Hope you enjoy your stay here...God bless you all...

Before I was a Mom

Before I was a mom..
I never worried
about how i late i get into bed.
i brushed my hair and teeth everyday

Before I was a mom...
I cleaned my house each day.
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunization.

Before i was a mom...
I had never been puked on,
Pooped on,spit on,chewed on, peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a mom...
I never held down a screaming child so that the doctors could do test.
Or give shots. I never looked into a teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat hours late at night watching my baby sleep.

Before I was a mom...
I never held a sleeping baby because i dont want to put him down.
I never felt my heart breaks into a million pieces when i couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that i could love someone so much.
I never knew i would love being a mom.

Before I was a mom...
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know how special it is to be called mama.
I didn't know that bond between the mother and her child.

Before I was a mom..
I never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love,the heartache,the wonderment of satisfaction for being a mom.
i didn't know i was capable of feeling so much before i was a mom.

Before i was a mom...
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and so happy.
I didn't know the true meaning of the word MOTHER.

I think all mothers will agree with this..happy weekened to all ...mwaaah.
