Merry Christmas and good riddance to 2007


It's 5 am, and I've been up for 3 hours! We put the boys to sleep at 8 pm (I should say they put us to sleep ... if I remember correctly, Joaquin was still blabbing and Gabriel was complaining about Joaquin being noisy when I drifted off to lala land). I suppose 7 hours of sleep isn't too bad.

I finally found time to read my messages in friendster and upload updated photos. This year's been extremely busy, both at home and at work. Work, I can't talk much about. Home, ah ... let's see:
1. Woke up one morning to shouting and screaming -- found out that maids were having a catfight. Joaquin's yaya had to leave.
2. Joaquin had a terrible bout of asthma and we had to bring him to the the emergency room at midnight.
3. Gabriel had dengue fever, and was hospitalized for 4 days.
4. Sharon (Gabriel's yaya) told us she was planning to go to Korea and work there. (Thank God she changed her mind)
5. Arvin started a business with my niece and friends.
6. Joaquin started school.
7. We went home to Iloilo, where kids got sick after a day at the beach. The yaya also decided not to show up and stay at home ( I still hold a grudge against this girl to this day)
8. Arvin gave me an eee pc.
9. Joaquin is now toilet trained (yay!)
10. Gabriel speaks so much sometimes you want to tell him to shut up!

Latest decent picture of the kids ...
