Yashiro

The other day (I think), I was watching one of the episode of Spoon and the guest was Andrew E. There were one part of the episode that is the eating portion and of course the sharing of thoughts and ideas of the guest and the host (Janice). One of the ideas that Andrew E. shared was about his experience with his kids. The reality when kids did something Moms first reaction is to shout and they wanted immediate response from the kids which causes the kids not to listen but according to...

2012! Another New Year and another journey. Another event in my life to be thankful to the Lord. Last year, the weekly posting of Daddy Yashiro's Journal has been opted due to some demands needed to be addressed. I have been busy on some other things that I didn't know if will lead me to something else. Fortunately, it does. Somehow. In return is the incapacity to update this personal and parenting blog. I'm sure most of the readers have missed my weekly post. Perhaps after some assessment...

It’s Saturday and it is just right timing for the Daddy Day Care portion of this blog. For today, I was given a chance to be invited in one of the launching event of SM ChriSM Christmas Campaign at SM Fairview. Of course I requested if I could bring along my kids with me so that they can also enjoy the event and since it is themed for Christmas. Fortunately, my whole family was there and since my wife is also a blogger, her blog is MAG of My Life. My wife and I preferred SM Fairview because...

Image Credit to the owner Fiesta has been a long time tradition of the Filipinos.  Fiesta has been a term for every barangays celebration of events such as or mainly their Patron Saints, Anniversary of the Town, or the Thanksgiving for having a good harvest. Since this kind of Fiesta is quite different the only reason that it is celebrated is because of the birth of the online or the virtual world. This is the Bloggers Fiesta. This is my first time to participate and enjoy a...

Ever since I was diagnosed with kidney stones and undergone treatment, eating chips and other snacks has been my number one problem. Before it was my pass time. I eat different chips and snack foods. It was good and fulfilling eating those alternative snacks. Of course I know it's not that healthy but hey it taste good. Then the day come and I was brought to the doctor. The doctor advised me to keep off from salty foods which means chips are off already. It was really hard keeping myself...

While browsing my Facebook account for some updates from friends and other people, one of my friend shared a photo of an incident which parents should not take for granted. I remember also one incident that happened in one of the malls and fortunately they were able to remove the shoes first before it reach the end of the escalator. Yes it was an incident in an escalator. Most of us think that escalators are very much safe but what we don't know is that one single lace or any part of our...

Last month, our family was able to have an out of town and an overnight stay activity somewhere in Laguna. First, it is the nearest province in Metro Manila which is a lot easier to go with; second, my wife’s cousin lives there and lastly, it’s their family reunion on her father’s side. The Reunion was held this year because one of their cousins from abroad came home and was also one of the sponsors of the gathering. That’s why they have it outside of the metro. It is our family’s first...

I'm sure most of Pinoys, especially the parents, have already seen this shark and clown fish already.  Of course the clown fish and shark has been part of the weekly task of the housemates of the Pinoy Big Brother.  The Clown fish was called Fifi (I think this is how they spell it).  During it's first appearance in the Pinoy Big Brother house it was lost and was flown away of the house.  Then when it came back inside the house, a shark was with it as part of the obstacle of the housemates...

The baby in house had turned 5 months old already. His already giggling, laughing and responding to our little wiggly and cutey acts. Yes, Dad needs to be wiggle and cutey in front of the baby and aside from that it is also better to communicate with them. A small conversation as if you were talking to a kid. They easily respond if you try that. You'll be surprised to their reactions. Aside from the giggly talks, we are also planning and researching, still, on what is the best food that...

It's Saturday and Daddy is out of town today. There's no Daddy Day Care time. No bonding time, no playing, and no giggly stuff with my little ones. Hay can't wait to go home already. Daddy needs to do some stuff and hopefully we get to be noticed on this one. I'm missing my babies already. Since our children came the longest day that I'm not in the house only two to three days but this time it's more than three days (I think). So maybe by the time I got home I want to have some with them.
