Hull Fair 2024

A long overdue blog post again pretty Mommas. 😒It takes me a lot of effort to get myself settled and compose a new write up during my third trimester. I am always tired and would prefer to sleep when I am at home. I bet most ladies would be able to relate to the exhaustion when we're nearer our due month. All those discomforts like leg cramps, insomnia, difficulty finding a comfy position to sleep and more on the list to add are all coming to its full blast during this period.❤️ Salute to all MUMS who had endured all...

Day 3 Cornwall-St Michael’s Mount

Non stop rain for the past two days here in Hull. I am really missing summer now.😒I am a summer baby lover. So here I am finishing my next blog post of our Cornwall trip whilst fully covered with my cozy blanket at home. Anyway, back to our main subject for this morning, we made it sure to book an activity in our everyday stay in Cornwall. Of course, it seldom happens when we visit the place, we needed to make the most of it. Booked it online two days in advance for everyone in the group to be able... Read More

Day 2 Cornwall-Tintagel Castle

Another week it took to post the seccond part of our Cornwall adventure.(LOL) That's the reality of the busy life of a pregnant working Momma. I am already looking forward to the days when I am going to be off from work. If working as a nurse is already an exhausting job, it is much more harder when you are working whilst pregnant. We are always on our feet carrying a heavy belly with us.How challenging is that? Few more shifts pretty Mommas and I will be relaxing myself at home with feet up in our couch.😁 Anyway, let's get...

Day 1 Cornwall-Lands End and Porthcurno Beach

January of 2024 when my friend Michio sent me an invite if we wanted to go on a group trip to Cornwall.I wasn't pregnant yet that time and had literally no other plans on how we are going to spend our summer holiday for this year.Said yes, without second thoughts.We haven't been to Cornwall at all plus Akyn will surely love it with his friends Yuri and Sophie going as well. Thank you to Michio for organizing everything for the group and for remembering us to be part of the trip. It happens once in a blue moon when we... Read More

Day 3 Scotland-Leith Shore

Our fridge magnet of all our trips are growing each year. It only goes to show how we love to spend traveling as a family. As they say, that soon we will forget all about the expenses we've spent during our travel because what we will remember will only be the beautiful memories of all our unforgetable experiences in our holiday getaways. I agree 100 percent! It's a gloomy morning here in Hull.😒On the brighter side, it's a favourable weather for me to stay indoors and finish my blog series about our Scotland holiday for me to start organizing our...

Day 3 Scotland-Edinburgh Holyrood Palace

I have been blogging since 2017 and I have just noticed I'm so much into using photo narrative method to tell my story. The fact that I love to take photos every family trip makes it easier for me to create a story out of it. Although sometimes, I used my blog to express my sentiments without using any relevant photos at all but that only happens once in a blue moon.(LOL)🤣It only goes to show blogging serves as my therapy to lighten up my emotions when things seem to get too overwhelming for me pretty Mommas. What's your own... Read More

Day 2 Scotland-Glasgow Cathedral

Nice thing about having a DIY trip is the fact that you got no schedule to follow,you can choose places you wanted to visit and the most important thing is, it is cheaper because you have an option to go to those tourist spots with no charge. ❤️ Glasgow was our itinerary for our second day.I did have a print out of their beautiful places to visit prior to our travel. Trying to be more organize pretty Mommas!(LOL)😍 After our Glasgow Botanical Garden trip,we headed to their city centre to have our lunch in Jollibee. When our tummies were all... Read More

Day 2 Scotland-Glasgow Botanic Gardens 

Second day of the trip started with early morning breakfast included in our hotel accomodation then a warm shower ready for a long day of exploring Glasgow.😍 Prior to traveling, we searched for places we can visit both in Glasgow and Edinburgh then printed them as a guide for our trip to Scotland. It's another DIY trip achieved,a much more cheaper method than purchasing a package. In choosing our destinations, we made it sure we considered our Akyn's choice. He's so obsessed with plants, so the first on the list to visit was a botanic garden. Searched for the nearest... Read More

Surprise Baby Shower

I have never expected in my entire stay here in the UK that I will ever experience a surprise party from my friends for any occasion at all. I love organizing gifts and parties for others, though. It excites me to choose something special to people dear to me. Do you feel the happiness, too when you see their smiles upon receiving your presents?❤️❤️❤️ Last week, my Filipino ward friends planned for a get together BBQ in the garden hosted by one of my friends. On the day of the said date, I was busy doing my own groceries and... Read More

Family Stroll in New Castle

I am not very consistent with my target post day for my blog to my dearest Akynfullhouse website. What could be the reason behind? Loads of family schedules getting done especially now that it is the start of our boy's school break. Akyn is still at the stage where he prefers to stay in the part of our house where I am. I won' be able to finish my thoughts in writing when he is around trying to get my attention every now and then. I don't complain. I love and would like to savour this sweet stage of him....

1st Place Winner Hornsea Music Festival 2024

Akyn's first half of the year is the busiest time with his piano endeavors because most of the music festivals he usually joins happen during those months plus he got his yearly performance to be graded so he can proceed to the next level of his piano competence.Yes, kids who study piano here in the UK are required to sumbit themselves for an exam before they can proceed to the next grade.With all those tasks mentioned, my Akyn never complained of being exhausted.He's always looking forward when Miss Mila,his piano teacher would come to start for another lesson.Sometimes, we would...

Humber Bridge Country Park

With the start of our Akyn's Easter holiday this weekends, we are tied to our mommy and daddy duties 24/7. I always love when our boy is at home because we can spend more time with him. Kids grow up so fast and their needy stage won't last long. Many parents with grown up kids would always advise me to savor the sweet stage moment of my boy when he's still too clingy and too expressive to let me know he misses my hugs when I am at work. Time will come when they will have their own set of... Read More

Five Years UK RN

Let us do a time travel via blog post.😂Five years ago, early morning on the 26th of February 2019, I arrived in the UK with only 30 kilos of personal belongings in my luggage and a pocket money of less than a thousand pounds to survive my one month of stay here. I came here alone with no family or close friends to be with. How courageous my younger self was to follow my dreams, to practice my profession miles away from home, with no security yet if I will be able to pass my OSCE's( the last exam I... Read More

Valentine’s Day and Ice Skating

I've seen a loty of funny memes online when Valentine's day was coming like someone posted,"Those cringe love messages with big boquet of flowers,chocolates, pressies will be flooding in my social media account again!" I want to get real and would agree that social media posts can sometimes be to cringey especially those new young lovers openly overshares their sweetness online.😂 I think most of us had experienced those stage and once we're over it, we now realised that it was too cringey.(LOL) Been there! Done that! 😂😂😂 Regardless if others would consider posting love presents received as annoying, I... Read More

Ikea Trip January

Gracing the year with the thought of making our house aesthetically pleasing and trying to be organized by finding some helpful gems in Ikea, Leeds. After we checked out from our Clumber Park holiday, we drove straight to Ikea prior to heading home. The weather was so miserable that day with heavy rains and awfully cold. Thank you Lord for the safe trip we had until we arrived home safely in Hull. This little man spent the whole journey sleeping comfortable. He was still asleep when we were already in our regular parking spot in Hull. That showed how comfy/tired... Read More

Clumber Park Lodge New Year Destination

Happy New Year everyone. It's 2024! That was really a fast year for me. Months going so fast last year that the next thing we knew, it was already approaching the next flip of the calendar. Hope everyone is doing good today. I'm still elated with our recent family travel in Nottingham Clumber Park Lodges. I've been looking for a place to spend with a private hot tub we can use during our stay. Thankfully whilst searching online, a travel company posted a travel package exactly dated during my Akyn's 8th birthday. Without further hesitation, we booked it since October... Read More
