Dana had lice.. uggh..

okay so that caught your attention I bet hahaha even though it sounded gross, it deserved to be in the blog because it's still a milestone in my child's life hahahaha especially after that last post about new firsts hahahha

Before we realized that she really had lice, I saw her scratching her head like there's no tomorrow. I figured she was all sweaty from riding her bike that that was the reason why she was itchy. And then, when her babysitter was combing through her hair after her bath, she mentioned that Dana indeed had lice and there were so many of them LOL

I immediately told the babysitter to remove as much as she can and instructed Patrick to buy medicinal shampoo to stop the lice from multiplying.

It took 2 days for us to get rid of all the lice and some of them have hatched too. We then went to Dana's favorite hair salon and had her hair cut. It was all good timing because school was about to start. Here'a a picture of Dana with her new lice-free hair :)

New Kids' Firsts

This year is going to be a milestone for Dana. It will be the year where she'll first start to go to school. I know, some of you may think that she's starting late considering some kids are in toddler school as early as 1 year old. Well, I wanted to enjoy my kids and want them to stay kids for as long as they can hahaha that's why it's only now that she's going to school. But hey, for someone who hasn't been to school, Dana knows a heck of a lot!! In fact, during her entrance exam, she scored the highest compared to those who already had formal education. Just because she's at home doesn't mean she doesn't learn. I guess she's just very bright and she takes instructions well. But I may have been a good teacher too hahahaha That's a testament to my mom!!!

So, we've been busy preparing for her first day of school. Buying school supplies has made me teary-eyed, believe it or not! There'll be an orientation on June 8 so we can't wait :) We're all excited ! :)

Dylan too has a his own firsts. Just last Saturday, he watched his first movie at the cinemas! It was Night at the Museum 2 and he loved it. he was so noisy inside the theater but only because he was reacting to the scenes. It was a good thing that the people around us were understanding hahahaha

But my gosh, theater tickets are way too expensive. Can you imagine one ticket costs P170?!!! I remember when tickets cost P40 and you can watch the movie over and over again. If you need to go out and buy something to eat, you can have the guard stamp your hand hhahahha and then you can come back hahahaha

The kids also had the first out of town trip when we went to Island Cove and Clark just this month. The details are in the other blog, as well as the pictures :) But one thing I can say, these kids know how to enjoy a good out of town trip :)

Can't wait for more firsts!! :)
