Parents Ponder---on ATTACHMENT PARENTING

We all do, don't we? Especially about our children---how we parent them, how we "discipline" them, how we feed them, how we love them, and ultimately, how cute they are!
It just seems that when moms get together, the conversation is unending. And what's great is that we learn from each other!
Well, next Saturday, the 16th of June, Mom Exchange together with Verdana Homes, is giving us a chance to do just that! The very first ever Parents Ponder... will be held at 9 to 11 am at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf in the Convergys Building in Makati.
Why Verdana Homes, you say? Because they believe in fostering family bonding. With today's two income families, it is sometimes very difficult to find time for the family. As all of us know, it is very important for us as parents to be active in the growing years of our children. How can we bond with them? What can we do? How can we manage our time?
We are holding a series of Parents Ponder to help our MomEx community members learn and gain support from one another, and ultimately, foster the goal of family bonding.
Please join us for our first talk on Attachment Parenting, where we will discuss what it's all about and how we can all be attachment parents.
Kindly email jencctan [at] gmail [dot] com to register. Please include mobile number, and names of attendees.

He called her Brutus
In today's interview of Yilmaz, he called Ruffa "Brutus". Of course, he meant *this* Brutus--->What was funny was that I had *this* Brutus in mind!
Thanks for visiting my blog & yes would love to contribute to the Mom Exchange as a Dad Contributor.
Big Boy na talaga
Well, our helper, N, was able to convince P to let her pull out his tooth. He's really a big boy now. Look at the one growing behind!
Wedding Guests
I expected it to be boring (didn't know anyone!) but it turned out to be okay (our friend was the videographer for the wedding)! For one thing, when we saw the setting, I was hopeful that the food was good. I assumed that since there were a lot of utensils per person, if we go by volume, there would at least be something I liked.
Here was what was for dinner:
Smoked Salmon and Grilled Tiger Prawns served with Mesclun Greens and Sesame Aioli (my husband said that the prawns were great...I agreed, in fact it was all great! I did wonder though, where the aioli in the sesame thing was because it didn't takes like aioli at all.)
Wild Mushroom Cream with Pine Nuts with Rosemary Crouton, Sauteed Shitake Mushrooms (well, the last part could be wrong, I can't decipher the picture!) THIS, was fab! It tasted like the mushroom soup served at our wedding! I wish I could have asked for a second bowl. Hahahaha!
Caramelized Gindara Fillet on Pumpkin Mash (the gindara was yummy, the mash was very smooth, but I'd probably like it more if I were a baby starting on solid food)
Grilled Boneless Chicken with Rosemary Jus with Herb Rice, Asparagus Spears and Tomato Confit (by this time, I was too full. S ate some, but said it wasn't as good as the rest)
Chocolate Yasmin and Chocolate --insert French name that I can't read here-- with Anglaise Sauce and Brandied Cherries (pretty good!)
I had fun with my mobile cam and took other pics:
Look at the setting on our table! Pretty! (and pretty standard, really, meaning, there wasn't anything different about this wedding. Our friends had air dancers in theirs, now THAT's different!)
Here's S, bored.
And this is us...I think I put too much eyebrow color. I hope that my new brush will help apply my brow color better.
I asked S why no one cried at our wedding. He reminded me that I cried each time we practiced reading our vows to each other. (On hindsight, it was a good thing we practiced because if we didn't, no one may have understood what I was saying through the tears.)
Anyway, I was asking Stan what we'd be doing for our tenth anniversary...magugulat nalang kayong lahat! Hahahahahaha!
I recently attended a wedding of a family friend and auee's right ... It's more high tech nowadays.
Happy weekend!
at hahaha, envy to the max daw si mommy jen. sige, at invite me sa 10th anniv renewal of vows ba? :)

Wedding cake maker---sued!
I don't know their side of the story (all of us know that when stories like these get into the papers, there is always something that's *wrong*). But that couple must be hella pissed for their case to go up to the court of appeals! Besides, one of them must be a lawyer. I can't imagine shelling out money to pay a lawyer for such a case! =p
