It's almost the last week of hubby and yours truly's split vacation (split because he got the 2nd and 3rd week of June while I work and I got the last week of June while he's back at work). It's been going well except that I am starting to feel the wrath of doing everything at home. Tired is understatement. But I am unbelievably content. I'm like whoa, I'm really doing all this and I'm getting by. I even got to iron clothes after more than 2yrs! Of course, I can't miss out on saying that hubby has been a great help especially when it comes to occupying himself with our Little Spanish Pinay while I work myself around the house.
What I learned though is not to get over obsessed with the house getting spic 'n span. The floor doesn't have to be washed too frequently for instance. Everyday dry mop goes a long way. And when something just can't be done? Then it can't be done. No sweat. So last weekend, instead finishing what has to be done at home (i.e. organize!) we decided to just drop everything off and enjoy THE BEACH! Yes, people! Finally we got to set our foot on the beach and actually play with the water. What's best is that the little person enjoyed it so much. Having the cleanest most organized house is nothing compared to seeing her have the time of her life so, I gave a cold shoulder to the household chores and packed our bag!
So thank you good weather, you gave us the chance to relax and enjoy the sun and the sand. Might I just ask, where have you been all this time?
Now, let's enjoy the photos below!

| Watch out! Sand falling! |

Her eyes are very expressive. It is filled with happiness :)
ReplyDeleteHope you get your wish so that LSP will get to enjoy the sun once again :)
What a fun outing!! She looks adorable in her little swim panties and Abuelo's hat. She is a water baby isn't she?
ReplyDeleteLittle Bit LOVES the water as well. There is a spring fed lake not to far from the house that has a little beach. He loves to dig in the sand and wander out in the shallow water. I just bought him a little boat to float in. As soon as my sinus infection goes away we are lake bound!
Have a great weekend!
i agree with you, sometimes we are too busy keeping a perfect house and we forget to have time with our kid. now, i don't care about sparkling home as long as i have time for my child.

Your nina is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI too used to be obsessed in making our house look nice. But when my son came I slowly accepted the chaos that comes with his every smile :)

I totally agree...a clean house holds no memories, but the memories are forever when time is spent with the family. Yay for you!

ReplyDeleteBoth mom and daughter is very sweet. Happy to see you both enjoying the water and the sun. Here is summer too, but the water is still too cold and the sun is just dropping by once in a while. Enjoy your summer.
