Super Mommy Jem welcomes you!

Welcome

jem's avatarBeing a mother is the most challenging task in the world and the most high paying job that money can’t pay. It takes a thousand words to describe what a mommy can give to a child and do for her family. I have created this website for everyone especially moms so they can relate, learn and enjoy being a mommy based from my real experiences. I also included some articles that will keep us updated in our lives. This is my share for a wonderful blessing as a Super Mommy.

The most informative article post that I have created are about “Budget Wedding“, “Pregnancy”, “Baby Care“,  “Feng Shui Tips before you buy a house and Lot“, “Work at home online especially for moms“, Kid’s Birthday Party at Mc Donalds and a lot more.

Special Discounts on Walgreen Prescription Savings club

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

Health is wealth. It is very important to keep our family healthy. Eating nutritious foods keep us healthy but there are certain conditions that illness cannot be avoided. As a mom, I am considering with how my family can benefit in health care and prescriptions. Sometimes we worry about the high cost of the medicine and prescription when one member of the family gets sick.

It is good to know that there are company offering special discount on annual membership like the one posted in Walgreens at http://www.walgreens.com/pharmacy/  .  For $10 a year, a family membership covers everyone in your immediate family, including a spouse, dependents 22 and younger and pets. Individuals may join for $5. Join and receive discount prices on your prescriptions. What I like about their club is the other benefits included in the package. Other benefits include: Savings on more than 8,000 brand-name and all generic medications, discounts on flu shots, pet prescriptions, nebulizers and diabetic supplies and bonuses when you purchase Walgreens brand products and photofinishing services. Annually, my family and I take flu shots so I think its a great deal to get discounts on this.

Educational activities at home for active toddlers

As a mom, I have been trying different ways to keep my active toddler busy. My three-year old son is so playful and active that he wants to play most of the times. I let him watch educational children TV shows from Nickelodeon but I think it would be best to engaged him in other educational activities at home.

Aside from toys, I encourage my little boy to love books. I bought several children’s book from booksale and some are gifts from his godparents and aunt. Children get easily excited with new toys but they also get easily bored after several plays. They have a tendency to lose their interest with their toys and want various activities. Letting them explore various activities at home may help in child’s mental development and social interaction attitude through mommy-toddler bonding.

My DASH weekly weight loss monitoring – Week 2

Week 2 of my DASH diet is not successful. I got sick but it is not because of dieting. A few days ago, I am not feeling well and my voice is hoarse. My throat is painful and I am coughing. It was so hard to deal with this kind of sickness. Now I am better. Because I take medicine, I did not follow my DASH diet. I ate more on fruits but the effect of the medicine makes me crave to eat more.

When I checked my weight it did not change from my past record. Since week 2 is not successful, I will be adding a week to my target date. Instead of ending on February 6 it will now end on February 13 just a day before the Valentines day. I need to accomplish my target before I return to my OB/GYN. This week I will include exercise in a regular routine every morning.

Week 2 Dash Diet

Current weight : 141.9 lbs

Target weight for week 3: 136 lbs.

Advantage of small business loans

I have taken out a small business loan. It was for my internet café business before as an added capital in my business start-up. Borrowing money or taking out a loan is the least option that I think to pursue my small business. As a regular office employee, my savings did not reach my desired capital to start my own business in the year 2006. I am really eager to have a business during those times so what I did is to take out a loan.

Small Business Administration Loans are truly helpful in business start-up. It can be consider as a great advantage when your money is not enough for the capital to do the business. The lending company helps me decide to create a finance package that fits with my business. I have coordinated with the account officer that analyzes my loan application. She showed me different computations based on loan terms so I can come up with an ease in paying the monthly amortization. It took me a week for the approval. There is a loan collector for every monthly due so no hassle in going out to pay. Missing payments can be avoided with these. I am so glad that with the finance package that they have offered, I do not have a problem with my loan payments.

I am participating in a blogger campaign by Bucks2Blog for SBA Loans and was compensated. However, the views and opinions are my own.

One Hyundai Club Life In Style Event 2012

Last January 14, 2012 my family and I attended the One Hyundai Life In Style event at Glorietta Activity center in Makati.. As what I have mentioned in my post about One Hyundai Club Life in Style event , we enjoyed the cool and fun activities there. The lifestyle corners at the event are beauty and wellness, Dining, shopping, Travel and Leisure and Hyundai World.

My family and I like the travel and leisure corner most. Since I have a three year-old son, we spent time in preparing and decorating  cookies to be baked there. We choose butterfly and heart-shape cookies. I assisted my son  in decorating the cookie with colorful sugar cream toppings and candies. My little boy also enjoyed watching other kids in playing the Wii game. At the beauty and wellness fashion corner, Ms. Tessa Prieto-Valdez was there if you want to ask about fashion. I also meet Ms. Regine Tolentino and his husband who is also present at the event. There is a fashion show at the stage with good looking models.

We stayed there for almost an hour. Big crowd of people attended this big event. I think the space is not enough to accommodate the large volume of people but it was a successful event because many have attended. Before we left the event, we took a nice photo at the photo booth.
