Baby Carrier, Rocker, Feeding Chair in One

admin — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 02:08:42 +0000

After two weeks of carrying baby Zach I was more than happy to get a call from hubby saying he’s buying baby a rocker. I don’t give my husband much freedom when it comes to deciding stuff for the baby. After all, don’t we have the motto, “Mothers know best?” Unfortunately, after giving birth to such a big baby, suffering from painful breastfeeding sessions, and having no sleep for a week I was more than ready to accept help from my hubby. This was a major purchase and I didn’t even blink when he said it was worth P2,000. If it would give me the sleep that I was looking for by all means buy it. So last night he came home carrying something that looks like this but with a different color:

Baby 1st 3-in-1 Baby Carrier

Can be used as:

1. Carry cot with canopy

2. Fixed feeding chair

3. Rock chair with 3 position recline seat

One of the first things I noticed about Zach is he’s a light sleeper. With the rocker feature of the baby carrier, I can just rock him back to sleep if he gets disturbed by his kuya or by the noises outside. Before I used to carry him for hours on end because putting him down means he’ll wake up just a few minutes later. I guess the P2,000 price tag is worth it since it can be used up to 8 months.

Cyber Monday for Online Shoppers

While Black Friday may be considered as the official day for shopaholics who enjoy rummaging through the shelves and bins of their favorite department stores, Cyber Monday is the shopping day for online shopping lovers.

Cyber Monday is a term coined by Shop.org to encourage online shoppers to purchase items from their favorite shops on the Internet. This special shopping day officially made its debut on November 28, 2005 in the U.S.

Scheduled on the Monday immediately after Black Friday, online retailers offer discounts and special promotions to entice shoppers to buy their products through their websites. What makes Cyber Monday particularly appealing to shoppers is that one need not leave the home to make purchases. You just click an item that you want, add it to your cart, pay for it with your credit card or through PayPal, and it will be delivered right at your doorstep. You don’t have to brave the stampeding hordes that invade malls and department stores.

Another advantage to Cyber Monday is that retailers more often than not release their Christmas catalog, which contains items that would be available during the holidays but which you could order in advance and at discounted introductory prices.

Rather than be caught in the crush of Black Friday, wise shoppers are advised to make the most of the online deals being offered during Cyber Monday in the convenience of one’s home.

Shopping for Dad

Hubby is going to be updating his wardrobe. We’re just waiting for the malls to go on sale. He would need new clothes for his upcoming trip to Dumaguete this November. He is going to be spending time there with the some of the biggest names in the music industry. Z and I are already excited for Daddy as we know this is a once in a lifetime event.

Daddy is thinking of buying some fashionable polo shirts. He said he also needs new shoes to wear. Maybe just to be different I will recommend for him to buy polo boots. After all, he needs to make a statement and not to blend into the crowd, right?
