Mnemo’s first out of town + tips for baby’s first flight
We spent two weeks away from the city and literally out of my usual network – no social media, no texts, no calls, no hang-outs.

It was Mnemo’s first bus ride, plane ride, and out of town. And sorry, Mnemosyne, for posting silly, ugly pictures, I’m just to thrilled to share this experience!…

Saying hello to a new chapter + the baby’s name! #MnemeOnTheWay
I was truly blessed to have a baby shower for Toyo! We were a little unprepared (because we honestly gave more time and effort on the decors and food, but not the program, lol) but at least we managed to gather everyone not just for a simple snack or late lunch and “kwentuhan“, but we also put a little fun for my friends to enjoy. I never knew it would be so much fun celebrating it with friends and family. This was actually the first time I (and my family) organized a party for a large group (40+ attendees. Sorry hindi tayo kompleto sa groupfie!), so bear with us. Haha!…
