About this blog
Welcome to The Meticulous Mommy! My name is Feng, trying hard to be a Meticulous Mommy. :) This is my second home next to my personal blog----From Dawn Till Dusk. My experiences to trying as many products and services as far as my Little Boy Nico is concerned was the main reason for creating this Blog. As a Mom, I only want the best for my son. And it pays to be meticulous enough to know most aspects, if not all, or the littlest of details of anything I provide my son, before taking the plunge of spending. It helps that the rich experiences I encountered and learned from the organization I've been working for over 10 years, allowed me to be more conscious on what I purchase and vigilant enough to fight for my rights as a consumer. ;) More about me?

- I WANT MY YAYA October 7, 2008I Want My Yaya is a mini story book I bought for Nico during our short trip to the Mall last Saturday.

- OF DOG BREEDS AND THOUGHTS ON OWNING A PET PUPPY October 6, 2008Last Saturday, we did some early morning jog and walk at Frontera Verde. It was a very unusual family activity that we ever did as admittedly, we are just darn lazy bummers during weekends. One thing though that motivated us to jog along Frontera Verde is our plan to buy a pet puppy for Nico. [...]
