I love Victoria's Secret!

Today, I treat myself because I worked hard these past few days. Hubby and I went to Victoria's Secret to buy some lingerie :D I love VS and I always feel sexy whenever I am wearing VS :D I know I am pregnant, but being pregnant doesn't mean you have to look and feel fat at all! So yeah! Thank you VS for making me feel sexy eventhough I am pregnant :D

Everyone's Here!

Posted by Arden Wallace

I’m not trying to be cocky, but I am the most well-liked guy on our street thanks to my Sunday football setup. Ever since I graduated from college, I’ve always been the guy that had the best set-up, and I pride myself on that. I have a flat screen in every room (including the bathroom so you don’t miss a second), satellite from DIREC4u.com so we can rewind and review plays, tons of seating, and I always have snacks for everyone. I seriously don’t care if one person comes over to watch with me, but I watch every Sunday without fail. I’m not even kidding you one weekend there were over 40 guys at my house. I just wish that girls were as in to football as the men! If there were a way to get 40 girls over, I guess I should have done that instead. I’m half kidding, and truly do enjoy my Sunday guy-time. I think I’ll start charging admission, or asking the guys to at least bring some of their single girl friends!

6 month pregnant

I am now exactly 6 month pregnant :D On my last appointment, they said that so far I gained 13 lbs which is not bad although I feel like my belly is big for a six month pregnant woman hehe. So far, my pregnancy is doing great. I don't feel nauseated, sick and dizzy. My blood pressure is good and as well as my pee test results (they didn't see any bacteria) and my vision is still the same.

Next month, I will going to have GD (Gestational Diabetes) test. They want to see how much sugar I have to avoid having GD. I will also going to have another ultrasound to make sure that the baby is really negative in Hydronephrosis. We are hoping that everything will turn out good and through the rest of my pregnancy and delivery. Oh! I can't wait to see my baby again moving in belly :D

Beginner in Couponing

I like watching the show "Extreme Couponing" on TLC because it amazes me how those people take couponing so seriously that it takes them hours and hours of their time in cutting and collecting coupons. All their time and effort are worthy it anyway because they save bunches of money plus they get freebies.



Yes, I wanna be like one of them. I also want to save money in grociries that is why I like watching that show and I like talking to my friends who do the couponing. They inspire me, give me tips, they tell me on what's on sale and they make me want to save more hehe.



I am a beginner in couponing and to tell you the truth, I have this feeling of being terrified in using coupons and getting stuff for free in stores. I received this coupon from John Frieda two months ago which I could get FREE foam hair color for not more than $12.99 of value. And yes! It only took me yesterday to had the courage to go to the store and get my free hair color lol! Together with that coupon is another coupon I got from Walmart that doesn't have any expiration date. It is a free tub of Parent's choice diaper wipes. I got it from the hospital when I gave birth to my first son Zac which was a year and half ago lol!

After I got those freebies from the store, I felt to happy because I couldn't believe that I really could get stuff for free!! Now, I am thinking of saving, cutting and organizing coupons from newspapers. I actually have coupons already but I haven't had any time of cutting them. But later tonight, I will cut them and organize them and I'll start using coupons now everytime I shop. My experience from yesterday gave me a little bit more of a courage to shop with coupons and I hope that someday I would be like one of those people I watch on Extreme Couponing hehe.


Thank You John Frieda and Walmart for my freebies!

Father and Son

I am so happy that my husband is now having fun watching our son while I am at work. It used to be just me watching our son but now, he watches Zac while I am at work. My husband told me that it is fun being with Zac and I was happy to hear to hear that from him. Not all dads has the temper and patient in watching a toddler and I understand why. But for me, every parent,wether the mother or the father, should always spend time to their growing kids.

Time fly so fast and if you don't spend time with with your kids then you as a parent is missing the most wonderful moment in your life. I believe that being a parent is not just providing their kids needs (food, clothing etc.), it is also about raising your kids, teaching them things they need to know and molding them to be a good person.

I love watrching my two boys laughing and tickling each other. Sooner I will going to have 3 boys. Yay!

Another car decision making

My husband was impressed at the recent car purchased I made. He said that I made the right decision in buying the car, but of course, I told him that his dad helped me in checking the engine of the car to make sure that everything worked great. The car I have chosen to buy is a Saturn. Aside from the fact that my car looks decent, another reason why I like it is because it is a fuel efficient car. As the gas fuel increases everyday, I think having a car that is good on gas is something we should consider in these times.

Next year, we might buy another vehicle, but this time, it is my husband's turn to have a new one. Right now, he has a Dodge truck. He loves his truck but there are times that we keep on spending money for its transmission problem which is expensive to fix. We don't want to give up on his truck because it is something we want to keep. When we are sometimes in doubt on how to fix our car problem, we seek information through http://www.repairpal.com/. This website is very useful because we can read manufacturer recalls and reported problems.

So far, my husband and I are still undecided if wether we will just sell our truck and buy a new vehicle or we will just keep the truck and buy another vehicle. Well, we still have a year to think about it but as much as possible, I would rather keep the truck and just buy another vehicle.

2011 New Laws in Indiana

Yesterday, July 1, 2011, while most of the Hoosiers where asleep, they passed hundreds of new laws in Indiana. One of the law is NO TEXTING WHILE DRIVING. Although they specifically said No TEXTING while driving, wether you are talking or checking emails on the phone, police officer will pull you over once he caught you on the phone while driving.

I actually like this new law because being on the phone while driving is NOT safe not only for the driver but also to his passengers and to other drivers as well. There are lots of people who got into accidents and some people even died while doing this.

I am so glad that they passed this new law to lower down the number of car accidents here in Indiana.

My Native American husband

Indiana is a flat plain except that there are some little hills or what they called "mounds". Mounds are a place where Native Americans lived or were buried. How did I know about this? Every time that my husband and I go for a ride, he will point to me every mound he sees and tells me a little bit of something about Native American Culture and tribes.

My husband is part Native American, Caucasian and German. He got his Native American descent on his mother's side and you can actually tell that he is part Native American by looking at his facial bone structure. He told me that there are several Native American Tribes and his mom's tribe was Sioux.

He has always been proud to be part Native American which explains why we have some dolls and figures of Native American. We also have this huge dream catcher and a small one for our baby's room. He also has this big tattoo of Native American Arm Band on his right arm which I really like.

There are so many facts and information that interest me about Native Americans and their tribes. I am glad that my husband has knowledge about it though and he always shares it with me. I keep telling him that I wish I could see a real Native Tribe and a full blooded Native Americans.
