Did you know about Peter Rabbit? I just saw him in clothes usually for babies and kids and I just found the rabbit adorable and I didn't know more about him. According to my research:

Peter Rabbit is Beatrix Potter's first and most famous character from her book. He is a young, impulsive, mischievous little rabbit, but really he has a soft heart. His mother is Old Mrs. Rabbit, and his sisters are Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail. His cousin is Benjamin Bunny, and his uncle is Old Mr. Benjamin Bunny. He always wears a little blue jacket with brass buttons and a pair of shoes. His father had been put in a pie by Mrs. McGregor.

One of the popular merchants that I have been having now featured the famous cartoon character that appeared in the Nick Jr TV Series.
Gymboree's brand new Peter Rabbit collection specially designed for the littlest ones in your life. This collection is the perfect way to celebrate baby's first Easter with bunny-soft styles, sweet ruffles, and exquisite embroidery fit for a prince or princess.

This one for your little boys. You can have sleepwear, a jumper set, a t-shirt, and even socks in a sky blue color.

Adorable pink sets for your little girls. From head to foot, the cute rabbit is in.

Shop the Brand New Peter Rabbit Collection from Gymboree and choose the best to wear for any occasion, or give it as a gift for birthdays, baptismal, or holiday seasons.

Have An Enjoyable and Worry-Free Bonding With OFF! Insect Repellent Lotion

Michelle Lalic January 18, 2017 0 Comments

Another year had passed and now we're looking forward to a fruitful and hoping for a healthy year ahead. As the year 2017 started, we all have things in mind and mine is always about my kids. How to handle their attitude? What to do to make them always happy? Planning their future and how to take good care of them? Those are in my mind. I worry a lot but good thing, when it comes to my daughter's health, I always have OFF! Insect Repellent Lotion to help me make their experiences more enjoyable and worry-free from mosquito-borne diseases particularly outdoor activities that they love to do. As a mom, just like every mom in the world, I want what's best for my children.

As much as possible, I prefer OFF! Overtime because it gives the longest lasting protection. It is useful to prevent bites, skin eruptions and rashes or severe skin irritation through an allergic reaction from mosquito's saliva or may cause by other insect bites. It contains N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide, also called DEET (/diːt/) or diethyltoluamide, is the most common active ingredient in insect repellents.

Since our place is near the river and grasses are everywhere, in most species of mosquitoes, adult females lay their eggs in stagnant water; some lay eggs near the water's edge and others attach their eggs to aquatic plants. That's why houses at night until dawn, mosquitoes are scattered and so annoying.

It's so alarming because we all know that they transmit extremely harmful infections to the human body such as malaria, chikungunya, Zika virus and the most deadly dengue fever.

Last 2015, my brother in law got dengue fever. He was confined in the hospital for a week. It made me so worried because we were in one house and it's possible that we all got sick and so to keep away from mosquitoes, I bought 100ml of OFF aside from using spray and mosquito coil.

Thanks to S.C Johnson & Son company for creating this lotion. It has refreshing scent and light on the skin. My kids love to apply it and never heard them a complaint about how it smell. She no more gets itchy rash, no scratching to the point that it will become wounds.

When the sun sets and it's not hot outside, I let my youngest daughter Aquisha play with her bicycle. The time that mosquitoes are coming out their nest. Before they bite my baby, I make sure to applied OFF lotion to her arms and legs. I don't want her get bitten and get sick. Going to the hospital is costly. Prevention is better than cure as they always say. And since I don't have money to pay the hospital bills so I better be ready and always have a bottle of OFF Overtime Insect Repellent Lotion wherever we go.

Before we go to sleep, I read them bedtime stories and we also apply OFF lotion to avoid insect bites and get rest well without any distractions. I am not worried anymore because I trusted OFF a lot. We'll do this continuously as long as mosquitoes are everywhere.

OPPO F1s: Capturing Philippines

Michelle Lalic January 13, 2017 0 Comments

I want to travel all over the world. I want to go to beautiful places together with my family. For now, I will work on to achieve this goal. Since I am not yet able to do it due to the financial crisis. I am only a stay at home mom without income. I am currently searching for home based jobs to earn and live a comfortable life. If I can't make it travel around the world, I hope at least I can explore here in the Philippines where there are amazing spots to see and a must visit once in a lifetime.

So far, Potipot Island in Zambales was one far place I have visited, that was during my stay as an accounting assistant in my first work. Two days and one night stay at Dawal Beach Resort, a treat for all employees. Sorry, I don't know the group package when we checked in.

We went to the Potipot Island first thing in the morning so that it wasn't that hot and we will eat our lunch there. It is a small island in Candelaria Zambales and a 15 minutes boat ride. They called it a little Boracay of the North because of the white sands.

Riding the boat made me so nervous but the moment we arrived at the island, it was breathtakingly beautiful.

The waves and the onshore breeze blowing from the sea toward land was a wonderful experience since it was not an everyday chance.

The trees in the island served as the shelter to rest after swimming and to keep away from the heat of the sun. You must have slippers or a beach ready shoes to avoid getting hurt from the sands and rocks while scrolling around the Island.

The water was crystal clear. It was a nice swimming moment on the beach when the sun isn't yet burning your skin. We scroll the Island while taking pictures of a beautiful spot. That time, I didn't have a digital camera for clear shots. I used mp3 player, that's why my photos was a bit blurred.

If you want to go to the beach, Potipot Island is a good choice. It is not that expensive. When there's a chance, I will come back and hope that 1 OPPO F1s is with me. It will help step-up my Philippine adventures because it has 16MP front camera, uses a front beauty camera with a 1/3 inch sensor and a F/2.0 aperture so I can take natural looking selfies even in low light conditions. It has also 13MP rear camera for wonderful night shots. The large pixels also work to bump up the dynamic range and give pictures a vivid depth and detail for capturing exceptional clear and detailed photos.
