Netflix #StreamTeam

Nino and I love taking the kids to the movies.

We love the research that goes into the movie we will watch as a family.

We love the process of getting dressed in comfy clothes so we can relax in the air conditioned theater with our popcorn.

There are movies that can be used as tools to teach our kids. Movies that can inspire us to be better parents. And movies that remind us what all the madness in the world is for. Those are the kind of movies that I love to bring the kids to. Those are the kind of movies that offer opportunity to grow and learn with our kids.

Conversely, I also love the time when Nino will take me out to watch a movie that is just for us. Date night is important to us as a couple. It’s important to get out, and be able to talk without interruption. To spend time just the two of us.

But let’s be real. Getting out of the house with four kids isn’t always easy. 

Sometimes, one of the kids can be down with a cold.

And sometimes, it’s just easier to wear my yoga pants and throw my hair in a mom bun, so I can watch a movie in the comfort of my own home. 

 

Boneless Baby Back BBQ Ribs for TV Dinner tonight with #TeamGellibean. Thanks @manila.gent for cooking tonight! Friday night @netflixph with the kids means we will start a new series. Currently, I switch from The Good Wife to The Crown and I want to start Touch. BUT FRIENDS…. • • • • #netflixph #streamteam #dinner #familytime #fambam #tv #ribs #food #homemade #homecooked #delicious #yummy #Friday #instagram #instagood #instacool #love #familyfirst

On my sofa.

With my truffle cheese popcorn made from Miguel’s recipe. 

Popcorn at home made easy with our Severin Popcorn Airpopper= DA BEST

This is just one of the many reasons why our family has moved in with NETFLIX.

Late last year, Netflix asked me if I wanted to be part of The #StreamTeam.

Is that something someone actually turns down?

Seriously?

We LOVE Netflix. 

We love Netflix for the ease with which we can watch NOT ONLY movies, but also our favorite series in the comfort of our own home. (Not to mention when we are on the road too…)

I love Netflix because I can create profiles for each of the kids according to their ages and what’s appropriate for them to view. And it doesn’t matter whether I am with them or not, because the settings are stored in the account profiles.

Like take for instance Gelli. Although, she never will be watching tv by herself, I can set it in a way, that if she DID watch by herself, only certain shows would come up. 

And, depending on the account that you choose to avail of, you can determine the number of screens that can be connected at the same time. 

Actually, it’s pretty convenient.

At the launch of The #StreamTeam here in Manila, we learned a lot about what we can look forward to in 2018. 

I am super looking forward to more binge watching my series and movies both with Nino and with the kids. Currently, I’m enjoying The Good Wife, The Crown, Vikings, and FRIENDS.

I love all of these series for different reasons, but I totally want to here what you guys are watching. What are your favorite shows on NETFLIX right now?

I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes toget I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes together so easily. When Sandra Cheng shared that she was willing to share more about her benefits of @easecox.ig essential oils with our buddies, the team and I quickly brainstormed a program flow that was in line with this opportunity to learn. 

Grateful for @monicaemanzano who was so game to share a movement segment from @flowretreats. She thought of @curatedgoodfood who generously shared preservative free dimsum which goes perfectly with our healthy sammies from @h2v2partyneedsandcatering. @komida.foods has been a consistent supporter of our mission and events since last year. We are grateful for their continued mission of providing healthy snacks for our events!

We opened with @joanngue.mlg pranayamic breath work, moved on to a yoga flow with Monica, followed by mindfulness with @enzoarmovit, a gratitude circle, and then esssential oils for beginners with Sandra from Easecox Philippines.

What a wonderful morning spent with our Buddies in BGC! 

Thank you to everyone who made this event so easy to conceptualize and mount! 

PS. If you would like to be a buddy. Please PM me. Bugsy and I are so blessed to have one another and I love that we get to do things like this together!
Colors. My first girl got to go on her first med Colors. 

My first girl got to go on her first medical mission in October. 

Gosh, they grow up so fast. 

We bought her new scrubs for the trip. It feels like yesterday when I was buying her green skirts and black Mary Janes for grade school.

Now she’s all grown. On her way to becoming a doctor.
At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado turned to me and said “Mom, thank you so much for bringing me here. I love Frozen.” 

As Gelli continues to grow up, some things remain the same. Her love for princesses, her love for her siblings, having fun with the family, and music and dance in any form. 

What an enchanted evening we had visiting the Samsung Theater in @_circuitmakati to watch the FROZEN film in CONCERT with a LIVE ORCHESTRA. From the moment Gelli hear the orchestra’s accompaniment to the film, to the vocalists who sang along, she was mesmerized.

Thank you @dotdigitalph for inviting Gelli to experience this up close and personal!! She had a blast!
