Bits and Pieces of Me

ORIGINALLY POSTED AT LELLIEBUBB FACEBOOK PAGE ON JUNE 29, 2015. I am getting inquiries from expecting moms ---asking for advice what type of carrier is best for their soon to be born babe.

I have registered to participate, unfortunately it is too early for me to be out of the house, I am feeling better but I don't want to overdo it. And hubby also feels that our little angel is still too small to be exposed to a huge crowd, he's more concerned about baby's immune system not being that strong yet. Hubby is more on the preventive side which I understand. Sa panahon ngayon, mahal magkasakit. I really...
