I Don't Want To Impulsive Buy!

Y started eating solids (will post pictures!) last Sunday, I fed her with lugaw. I think she didn't like it judging by her facial expression. LOL! Today, I added breast milk. I think she liked it better.


The feeding set I'm using now is the one given to her by one of her granduncle. Combi Feeding Set Stage 1. I love Japanese products! :D
Its serving it's purpose naman but I want the Munchkin Spoon with heat sensor. I want it not really because of the heat sensor feature but because the spoon reminded me of my childhood, my little brother's actually. His spoon looks exactly like it! Except the tip is white.



In the mall, it costs Php519.75! Searching Multiply and Ebay.ph, prices range from Php300 - Php475. Still cheaper than in the malls. Problem is, it's too many. But I can always share it to my sister and have G use it when it's his turn to eat solids.

Another thing, I'm looking for a sippy cup or trainer cup for Y. So that I can start training her to drink from a cup. I want to buy a stainless one because it's safer than plastic. But Y is starting to learn to throw things. So I also want to buy a plastic one. Too many choices, too many reviews!

Other things I want to buy! This I'm sure I'll buy!


Php559.75 in malls, I saw this in multiply / ebay for Php500!
Php389.75 each in mall, I found an ebay seller selling it for Php320!

I'm buying my Munchkins from Multiply or Ebay. The cheaper the better! I feel so ripped off by the prices in malls!

Any online stores you recommend? Multiply or Ebay sellers that are reliable and cheap? I'm not buying yet but I have a tendency to buy impulsively!

Strolling!

Stroller talk, Mommies!

We're taking Y soon out so it was also time for me to go get a stroller for her. The B.O.S. like the Quinny Buzz, we were set on that even before Y was born. The Buzz is bulky and heavy, talking about 15 kilos and it's freakin' expensive! We used to lived in a condo with an elevator, so it was ok then. But now that we moved to our new place, fourth floor with no elevator, good luck sa pagbuhat ng 15 kilos! LOL. I also have to consider the size when it's folded, if it can fit the trunk of a car. Buzz is not really ideal for us so sorry, B.O.S.! No Buzz for us! I was planning to get it from the US, buy it in Amazon and have it shipped via Forex. I've seen moms pushing this stroller and they look so angas! Haha.. Well, no angas for me. Buzz = E-X-P-E-N-S-I-V-E!



Then I met Combi. I saw Combi Miracle Turn at Daphne's blog, I read that it was easy to maneuver, lightweight, and the handles are reversible. Unlike the Buzz where you have to reverse the seat so that the baby can face me. It's less expensive than the Buzz, it's a Japanese brand. Though it's made in China. (Ain't all?) I was supposed to get the Combi Miracle Turn DX, the newer model, last January but they were all out of stock at all Hobbes and Landes and Rustan's. This is not available in SM. The SA from Hobbes and Landes said he will text me if it ever became available again. I got a text but it was the Miracle Turn lang, ayaw ko! There are only two colors. It's either of the two lang. It's only 6.35 kilos! Perfect sana kaso walang stock! Hindi na ako umasa. Not meant to be.
Emerald Green
Amethyst Purple
I was supposed to get this color.
When I went to the SM Grand Baby Fair last January, there was an Aprica booth. I only saw Aprica in Rustan's and Youji & Me in GB5. Not much selection so I was surprised to see there was Aprica at the fair plus it has quite a selection of strollers, carriers and car seats. My eyes zoomed in to this cute polka-dotted stroller. Love at first sight! I love everything. I was thinking of buying it na but held back, it was on 10% off plus a free Avent Blender I think.. (They are distributed by the same company that distributes Avent in the Philippines, if I'm not mistaken) Ughh,, thinking about it, wish I bought it na back then.


Aprica Laura Co Co Chi
It looks similar to the Miracle Turn DX noh?
Fast forward two weeks ago, we were in SM Makati shopping kitchen and bathroom stuff. We passed by Baby Company because I was also looking for a booster seat for Y. Then we saw the Aprica strollers! I told my mom that that was what I saw during the fair. I asked the SA if they have the polka-dotted one, they did! I still held back, because the kurips in me wants to check out if I can buy this in the US para cheaper. No luck. I can't find it in Amazon. The websites I mostly checked out were from Singapore, Thailand or Australia. Maybe the stroller is for Asian market only. Anyways, my mom said to buy it na. And we did! :) It's lighter pa than the Combi, it's 6.1 kilos lang. The handles are also reversible, I like the sun-shade, it's easy to maneuver! It has two other colors but I really really like the one we bought.




The stroller is still in its box haha. Can't wait to bust it out for Y to use it. I hope it's soon! She'll be six months next week! Y's stroller is adorbs! Just like her!
