E R I K A

Oh how I've missed blogging! I'm blogging here on my phone and boy is it hard! We have wifi but can't connect LAN on our PC and our desktop fan broke so my friend adviced me to not use it until we buy a new one. It's been a month now and oooh how I've missed playing Sims 4 and Fallout! I did have troubles with Haru's birthday party due to our PC being broken. I wasn't able to print as much decorations but overall the party was a success! We celebrated his party on the 30th of January and not on his actual birthday which is January 18. Not many people came but I was ok with it because we just had a house party and we didn't bother renting a venue. Here are some of the pics me and my friend took at my son's Winnie the Pooh themed party!

I had 'em made by my friend's mom!

She makes all kinds of really yummy sweets and desserts and I got a discount!

I found these printables online and glued it on a little plastic spoon.

These cupcakes needed to be eaten with a spoon.

I did made the 'Happy Birthday Haruki' banner but my friend made the Haruki printable. I bought his Winnie the Pooh cake topper from Amazon. It's not actually a cake topper but a talking toy but I thought it would look cute on top of the cake plus Haru could play with it afterwards.

I bought and painted the letters and made the pompom garland at the back.

And here is the set up! I made the paper garland hanging from the ceiling and I also made the 'Happy 1st Birthday Haruki' banner and got the little Pooh and friends printables from Disney Family website. I wanted his party to be a bit woodsy like the Hundred Acre Woods and not too colorful. I bought baloons and my friend got me party crackers but I forgot to use 'em. But it's ok 'coz it'll be a pain to pop the baloons after the party and it'd be really messy with the party crackers.

 I made this piñata following The Sorry Girls' tutorial.

Here are his giveaways that I also DIYed. Inside there are Winnie the Pooh mini tupperwares, Winnie the Pooh notebook with a pencil, ruler and an eraser and a Winnie the Pooh face towel.

It came in different colors. I bought a lot from Rakuten and it costed me ¥7,000+ for 40pcs each of everything! We still have a lot left since not a lot of people came. Wonder if I should sell it on ebay?

Have you ever been to a party where your guests cooks food for the other guests? Lol. I am so grateful for the people who helped me cook for the party! I actually didn't do much cooking instead I looked after Haru and all the other guests.

The Birthday Boy

Papa & Baby Pooh

 Mama & Baby Pooh

I can't believe he'll be 1 year old in 2 months. I can't wait for him to say mama! He already spoke papa like 2 times but he never spoke mama which saddens me I mean, I am with you 24/7 and your first word is papa before mama?! But it's okay.. you'll say mama real soon~ and when you do I'll be the happiest mama ever! I love you Haru! Thank you for being my baby!

So this is what business class looks like!

It was my first time! Lol.

Reunited with my best friend / childhood friend

after how many years~

My bestfriends in Manila

My baby cousins and my cool uncle with his signature smile..

'The Smirk'

Lol.

We stayed at Kusatsu Onsen Hotel Village.

On September 26, I celebrated my birthday with my friends at Warehouse Omiya.

On October 11, we went house hunting and on the 17th we finally decided we're going to get the house that we wanted! So yes! Updates soon about that since we aren't officially moving.. we're still working on a lot of things.. thinking about it stresses me lol. So yeah.. but here's what the house looks like~


And now this November.. nothing has been going on really.. just met with my friends and ate dinner with them and then some house stuff we're working on.. I guess I'll tell everything about the house in a different post but yeah we're really excited to move! Although, we know it's gonna be a lot of work and I'll probably won't get to blog immediately because of the internet and stuff but I'll do an update ASAP!

Update on my son~ He's 9 months old, turning 10 this November 18. He's growing up so fast omg! He's taller and weighs 10kg now! He's a chubby baby so he's really heavy he hurts my arms! Huhu.. He's got a lot of teeth now, 8 to be exact. He can stand up on his own and walk now! But he can only do just a few steps, his walks are still wobbly. Here's a recent pic of him btw~

Oh and one last thing, I wanted to share to you guys this site that I found which allows you to earn money just by testing sites and it's called Testbirds. You can search for it online and it's absolutely legit and it's no spam I'm telling you. I just earned 5€ which is ¥660 in Japan money. I know it's not much but you can't just earn ¥660 just by sitting in a computer, typing and listening to music at HOME. So yeah.. I thought you guys might be interested so I'm sharing it to you~ This is not at all an ad. If you're interested you can register by clicking here. I would earn community points (not money) if you click on my tracking link.

I also changed my url AGAIN 'coz why not? And my theme! Omg! I love my theme so much! Lol. I do hope this is the last time I change my url haha! No wonder my blog doesn't go nowhere. Anyway, will be posting soon! Bye for now~
