Now don't get me wrong. I am not reeling from the effects of swinging until the wee hours of the morning, or even from imbibing more alcoholic drinks than I can handle.
I am actually recovering from the party fever after my son and daughter celebrated their birthdays together last weekend.
I tell you the advantages are numerous. Instead of hosting two separate parties for each one - we decided to make do with one celebration. And instead of having a pool party at a resort, we brought it back to the house.
This is the first time that me and my husband experienced buying groceries for the stuff that we are going to use for the party. There were times I did not know what I was doing but thankfully we got by.
Of course in the area of the kitchen, kudos must be given to my mom and sis. Even with my sister based outside of the country, they were still able to come up with a truly great, kid-friendly menu.
Now I am looking forward to the next celebration in sight. I am itching to try my events planning skills once again!

Typical Mommy Day
Seven days to go before my daughter's second birthday and exactly nine days before my son turns a year old, and I am at home tending to my daughter's who has been with fever since Sunday morning.
I think I have only slept a total of five hours in the last 72 hours, before she had a fever, I was up Saturday night to Sunday cleaning our bedroom, and it has been a whirlwind of activity since then.
In between my busy schedule at home and work, I have been able to squeeze in some time to go to the Ate Myra's and Kuya Budz' house to discuss and reserve for the kids' birthday cakes, go to Mr. Pinlac's to reserve for chairs and tables, ask my husband to accompany me to the store to send payment for online purchases and so on.
Today is my least busy day of the week and I am watching over my baby while I write this entry.
I just wish that before their birthday's the two kids will be up and about. I would hate for anything - be it illness or bad weather, to mar the day of the celebration.
Which reminds me, in an hour or so, I will be bringing Kaeva to the doctor.
Busy day? Not really. It's just the normal way a mother's day goes.
