It's my first time to join "Friday Fill-ins". I've been longing to join this meme for a long time now, but I kept forgetting. A few of my blogger friends seems to like this meme. So I thought of joining in!

2. I wonder what is life to live in the ocean.
3. One of my favorite vacation spots is the Philippines.
4. Beware when it's full moon.
5. Up, up and away is a 1967 song written by Jimmy Webb.
6. Bananas are slippery and mushy.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to see my husband who flew to Texas yesterday, blog hop, and maybe watch a movie, tomorrow my plans include grocery shopping, drive to our condo and do some maintenance, and Sunday, I want to relax and spend time with my family!

Mommy Moments

By Dhemz Apdian - Dias 2:42 AM // No comments

Father's day is just around the corner! Ayay! Akesha and I don't know what to get for Father's day...hmmmm, we might need to go shopping this weekend. Anyhow, it's Mommy Moments once again! This week's theme is about letters/artworks/messages for dads. Akesha is not old enough to write a letter to her papa, but she is old enough to say "I love you Papa" a gazillion times a day.

Hubby's first Father's day celebration.

This was the card that Akesha gave for Father's day last year.

Akesha helped me decorate the welcome sign that I made for hubby. Hubby went to South Carolina for his military training and was gone for 2 weeks.

Akesha loves helping her papa. Even if she's wearing my sandal, she still wants and eager to help hubby mow the lawn.

So if you are planning to purchase a testosterone cream, you should check out testosteronecreams.org. They offer the best all-natural testosterone creams on the web.

Traveling with A Toddler

By Dhemz Apdian - Dias 1:44 AM // No comments

Hubby and I started flying with Akesha when she was just 6 months old, and since that time, she has flown a few round trips, ranging from 1 hour to 16 hour flights. What a different world we live in. I did not ride on a plane until I was in my second year high school.

Traveling with my daughter is not a pain in the butt at all. She is a good traveler. She only complains if she's hungry/thirsty or if she wants to go potty. I am glad she knows how to entertain herself.

Travel Tips:

When traveling in the car or on an airplane, a great entertainer reusable stickers. Your children can stick and re-stick them on the windows of the car or airplane. Also, lollipops are good for earaches during flying.

Take lots of children's stories and music on tapes, plenty of cheap toys, and new books.

Wrap individual goldfish, gummy bears, and (a small amount) of M&M's individually in aluminum foil. Small children will delight in unwrapping them to see what's inside. This is a great tip for plane rides.

Sounds obvious, but ... Make sure you have your children go to the bathroom before you leave the airport - and have something for them to do so you have a nice flight there and back.
