yza --
she's amazing. she has better balance now when sitting up by herself. and when doing the "strong baby" play, she stands up more smoothly and for much longer. she looks very thrilled about it, too!
work --
oh, well. working from home has it's advantages -- a lot of advantages for me. but, it has its own challenges, of course, especially when you have a very curious baby.
changing diapers while on a call or a chat, attending web conferences, waiting for eric to get home... it can get frustrating at times but still, it really is a blessing, because it means that we don't have to put yza in daycare (less exposure to infections, less expense) and, yet, i still get to earn a full income (and again, with almost none of the usual expense associated with working.).
driving --
went to the highway today.
reminds me of the time in 1997 when i was here in the US for a visit (and had very limited driving experience like, uhm, got my license because my uncle knew somebody in our town's DOT). anyway, i was driving down route 3 (i think, that was what it was), missed the exit to rutherford, took the wrong one, and ended up in the garden state parkway. and drove. and drove.
at one of the exits, i asked a lady for directions to secaucus. i don't think she heard me clearly or maybe i didn't hear her, but i ended up still driving a lot. we didn't even know where we were in relation to secaucus. but when we saw a sign which said "elizabeth port" we knew we had to go back.
apparently, while we were having that "driving adventure", our boss, who was waiting for us in rutherford, had already called manila and let people know that we were "missing". haha!
they later told me that elizabeth port is not a good area to get lost in. all i know is that there were a lot of trucks in the area and at that time, i thank God for all those good truck drivers who managed to avoid me.

That is great! I wanna be a full time stay home mom when I do get to have my own children
It's great that you can earn at home. 
Now with regards to the driving...tsk..tsk..tsk...learning experience... I bet you're just making that as an excuse to drive more
hehehe just kidding 
*hugs*
any new pics of Yza ? She's really really beautiful.
I wish I could work from home too. Guess it's technically feasible since the office provides us with broadband access from home just so we can work from home during snow days (or when we're on call
) but it's not easy if you have to coordinate with other people.
That's a beautiful young lady you have there.
(The baby is cute too)
