Gabo has been making this face since day one. He looks like a teeny, tiny, small owl! (the adjectives are for emphasis... heheh...) ang cute talaga!

Gabo might only be sixteen days old, but he’s got the strongest little neck and loves lifting his head up and looking around.

meal trains and frozen meals

Mom has been telling me to stock up on ready to go frozen meals at least a week before my due date. That way, we don't have to worry about feeding ourselves when we get back from the hospital. We'll just defrost the frozen meal, add vegetables, cook rice (or pasta if it's not included in the dish yet) and we're good. Kasi we don't have any household help yet, so this will help us a lot.

I have already compiled a list of freezer friendly meals like spaghetti, nilaga, etc. however, I haven't gotten around the cooking part yet. Tinatamad talaga ako. It would be nicer if someone would offer to set up a meal train for us, kahit sa first week lang. *wishwish*

I read about it a few days ago. It's this process of organizing meal giving by matching the special meal needs and requests of the recipient with the availability and abilities of meal givers. Visit this site for more info.
