When I was checking out the westway - crocs shoes online just now, I found some nice stuffs to be added in our new home later in Bangkok. I have always wanted to have beanbags at home, and it’s quite comfortable if the cover is made of faux suede. I know that a darker color is better if I am too lazy to wash the cover often, but if possible, I might want to get a candy pink faux suede beanbag. Don’t you think it’s cute?

It would be nice for a little girl’s room but too bad Isabelle won’t be having one until we have a bigger house! There are only 3 rooms in the house, and since one of the room is going to be used as a home office, we are left with 2 rooms. If my maid is not coming along, we can allocate one room for the kids. But if she’s coming, my kids are going to cramp with us for a few more years. :P

Nonetheless, the beanbag can be placed in the living room and I can sink myself in it while watching the TV. That will be great! However, I wonder how long will it last as my kids tend to jump on any sofa or cushion. It better be durable!

Most of the time, we have someone to send the office supplies like stationery, toner, papers, and etc to our centre directly, and it’s very convenient to us. However, he has increased his selling prices of almost all his items, and I don’t think it’s worth buying from him anymore.

I guess if as long as I can save up a lot, I don’t mind looking for other sources, even if it’s an online company. Too bad I’m not staying in US as Rapidsupplies.com is a great source for Discount Online Office Supplies, Printer, Computer and School Supplies.

They have stocked up thousands of toner cartridges, ink supplies and offer huge discounts on bulk printer paper, all of those that my office needs. I will definite buy online in bulk to save up more.

Hubby has very bad eye-sight. If he’s not wearing his glasses, he can’t walk nicely without bumping into things! Since he plays golf a lot, glasses are not convenient for him. Thus, he’ wearing contact lenses most of the time.

He likes to buy his lenses from the optical shop at Jusco, but coincidentally, he can’t find his much preferred brand, Acuvue, from that shop and the sales personnel always ask him to return to the shop on some other day.

Actually, hubby doesn’t need to go through all this hassle. He just doesn’t know that he can shop for contact lenses online! There are lots of contact lenses he can choose from. And the prices are greatly cheaper too. So, I better let him know about this tomorrow! But I’m not sure if about the shipping fees! That he will have to find out himself!

I’ve always wanted to write about paid post regarding baby products in this blog. And I’m so happy that I had this opportunity to write about this baby website SpiffyBaby.com which sells Upscale Baby Gifts & Unique Toys. Modern Crib Bedding, Designer Clothes, Jewelry & Natural Skin Care Products.

I’ve always enjoyed shopping for my kids. And just couldn’t resist myself from buying clothing for them. Which parent can? :P When you see the clothing and accessories section is full of incredible items like bibs and hats by Babygags, Swanky Diaper Cover or the Pee-pee Teepee parent protectors by Beba Bean, baby rompers, onesies, hats, rain suits, bodysuits, booties and beautiful baby dresses by Kushies, you’ll be tempted to get a few in your hands!

I especially like the stylish denim overall jeans with knee pads are made by Krawlers, specifically made to protect the gentle knees of our little crawler. It suits Isabelle who’s crawling now very well.

There are a selection of stuff toys too, too bad my boy only likes Barney. :) Mommies can also find some great natural skin care products which are suitable for the whole family. Daddies can use too, right?

Anyway, the month baby photo contest caught my attention. The monthly Spiffy Baby contest has winning prizes up to $50! There is also a growing parenting resource center, Spiffy Baby Talk. It’s where one savvy parent meets another!

Should I hint to hubby what I’m hoping to get on Valentine’s Day? I was looking for a new handbag and found some nice designs online. On top of that, I have discount coupons for those purchases. But I don’t want to pay for them! I prefer hubby’s paying for it and giving it to me as a Valentine’s Day gift. How to hint? :P

Anyway, I got to get him something special too. Something he’ll be using very often….Golf Balls! :P Nothing beats this gift!
