Week 15: Next ultrasound middle of Sept, so finding the gender will have to wait a few more weeks. Aug. 16, next OB/Gyne appointment, will hear baby's heartbeat again. Nobody has asked if Mommy's pregnant which means, mommy's tummy is not yet obvious. They are saying that Mommy got a small tummy for 3.5 months and gained only 4 pounds the entire pregnancy . Mommy is damn proud, she says "Maybe I won't get big that much and I can get slim fast after delivery" although Daddy is worried that I might be small for my age. Will find out this Thursday.
Week 16: Bloodtest for spina fida(developing spinal cord of a fetus doesn't close properly) and down syndrome. I think I felt the baby moving but am not 100% sure, baka bitok ko lang or maraming hangin tiyan ko. ewan!
Week 17: Haven't felt the baby kick yet, dammit! I think I'm too manhid. I'm also having difficulty sleeping, always getting up to pee, which is more frequent than my usual and finding the right "side" position, so I bought myself a pregnancy pillow, which cost a fortune, but I had to choose between spending and having at least a little sleep. The pillow is huge and occupies more than half my share of space, Yiek is complaining that he is too cramp up.

I got tagged by Miss Cat ages ago, but since I've done this a while back(my other blog), estapwera ko sya. Now I'm really bored so what-da-hell, I'll think of 8 more.
Here are the rules
1.) In the 8 facts about [name], you share 8 things that your readers don't know about you. At the end, you tag 8 other bloggers to keep the fun going. Each blogger must post these rules first.
2.) Each blogger starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
3.) At the end of the post, a blogger needs to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
4.) Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.
~~
1. I can only eat scrambled eggs and the white part of sunny side-up. I think I got tramautized when I was a kid, you know when you travel there is always the ever present hard-boiled egg (itlog mo noy orange!) therefore nausea = egg.
2. I used to have a security blanket until I was in my early twenties. The blanket didn't look like a blanket anymore, it looked like a quilt with all the "tapak" or repair that has been done.
3. I always exchange my "s" with "t", i.e. Masachuetts Institute of Technology, sometimes, I pronounce it as Matatutets Intititue or I say "Samok" I always end up saying "tamok" ... which drives the pesky husband to bouts of laughter.
4. I have the last object/last word syndrome, like I want Yiek to turn on the tv but since I am thinking of something else, I might say "turn on the laptop". Like last night, I meant to say "open the window" and I said "Turn on the lights" because I was thinking of turning on the lights. I then said, "Turn on the windows" before I said it correctly. Errr... I need a processor updgrade.
5. I don't have a favorite color, 3 years ago it was cream, 2 years ago it was apple green and now I'm partial to anything that's red.
6. I'm more talkative when I'm chatting, I don't know why.
7. Some of you may not know this but I can carry bastos/vulgar talks like the average man (or more), asked fellow Lear peeps/Georgia/Ria and they would say that I was the queen of all bastos/vulgar hirits. Now, it always amuses me when they think I'm too Maria Clara. Di ba 'iam partner ta ani?
8. When I'm really bored, I squint my left and right eye alternately, just to see the objects that I'm seeing move.
9. I'm not ery good in following rules ergo I'm not tagging anyone. So, if you have to post random things about yourself, copy this and blog away.

Problemado sa utang.I usually hate the second half of the year because the list of bills to pay never seems to stop, there is Yiek's insurance this month, an increase in the our condo's monthly rate in September (Manila condo), also we are moving to a much bigger apartment next month, so that would mean a hefty deposit (1.5 deposit + rent + inspector's fee + credit check fee Arrrgg!!!), 4 insurance bills to pay in october and november (da pataka pa ug kuha! nganong ning enter) and then its December, the season were the poor becomes poorer, we have to of course give some mullah back home for their celebration and buy gifts to give to our friends here(last year namigay sila kami lang hindi, kahiya naman kung di kami bibigay this year). As if the expenses would not send my mind reeling, we need to buy furnitures for our bigger apartment, a sofa-bed for Mama when she comes here and for us to have a sofa as well, drawers because our new apartment does have any space for folded clothes, a coffee table and some cabinets. I also need to buy maternity clothes which is not cheap! Thanks to gifts from family and friends I now have a few which will be not-so usuable by the time my tummy gets really big because its all short-sleeved and winter is coming! BY January we are as poor as a rat but then the baby is coming and we have to buy numerous stuff i.e. crib, carseat, stroller, baby tub, diapers,wipes, clothes etc. (Sana may baby shower ako pero I don't see this event coming true, wala naman akong close friends dito eh!) I don't want to be an adult anymore!!!! Mahirap pala ehek! Oh! We also need to change our car brakes and we might need to change our tires soon. Damn it! Bakit timing pa ngayon?
Please don't say that we are rich because we are earning in dollars I am so sick and tired of explaining, the expenses here more than makes up for what we earn. We are still struggling like we were back home. *Rant* *Rant* *Rant*

Ok! Ok! I'll stop ranting and be happy that I'm blessed. Eto na lang isipin ko, ang bakasyon namin next month, we are going to LA's Disneyland! We need this vacation, we've been working hard and we need some reward. Hello Jollibee, Hello Chowking, Hello In 'n Out (super sarap daw na burger) and Hello Hollywood. L.A. is 6-7 Hours travel by plane, hope it won't be too stressful for me and the baby. Oopps, di kami rich! Letse talaga.. utang po ito, swipe sa credit card. Kaching! Plastic money.
