huevos

this past weekend we made our bimonthly (if not weekly) trip to Henry's (btw, I love Henry's! we can fill up our cart full of veggies and fruit and get everything for less than $20! haha) so, i had both kids in the cart-Miah was illegally riding in the big part of the cart-and i stopped to check out the eggs. a man was nearby with a cart and a stroller with a baby, he seemed to be waiting for his wife, i'm suspecting. anyway, so as i'm looking at the eggs a woman comes by with her son in the cart and the boy points at the eggs and the mother says, "ooh! este es huevos!" telling her son that those are the eggs. so, Miah sees and hears the mom say this and makes an angry face and as the mother and boy pass us, he says angrily, "hey, i no huevos!" It took me like 2 seconds to realize what he said and I chuckled and told him that she was just telling him that those are the eggs! LOL. Then I look over to see if the man heard what he said and he kinda chuckled and said, "haha, that was cute!"

FINALLY!!!

Yay! Emma's first tooth is finally starting to coming out! Finally! She's already 18 1/2 mos and they're just barely coming out now. haha. She's getting so big & learning new words everyday. She even knows what makes us laugh and is always so happy!

Jeremiah has learned to navigate the web! I made him his own account on the computer and set up his favorites, like Thomas the Train, Mickey Mouse, Word World, just to name a few. It's so hard to get him off just to eat dinner, but he's learning lots so I'm not really concerned. Maybe he'll grow up to be a computer whiz, we'll see! :D

Happy Birthday, me!

It's my birthday today...I'm 32...wait, am I? Where's that calculator...yup, 32. I lost count after 21 haha. I tried to stay up to finish reading for a quiz today, but I was already falling asleep and figured if I was that sleepy, there's no way I would remember anything! Anyway, I'm just sitting at the kitchen counter drinking coffee and eating a bagel (which I never do cause I'm always in a hurry), thinking about my life and what I wanna change to be a better person. STG: more productive study time. Oops, 5 mins till I gotta pack up the kids in the car for Lolo and Grandma's house, then school all day for me. I think I'm gonna try to just relax today while at school :D Maybe take a nap in class. j/k. Better yet, I'll make a list of my goals...Have a great day everyone! I will! :D

Thank you God for giving me a life full of love! I am truly blessed to have a great husband, loving children and fantastic family and friends!

Happy 65th Birthday Dad!

My dad's birthday is on the 6th of March and mine is on the 8th, so we usually celebrate together by going to eat seafood...our birthdays are usually during lent and we tend to get together on Fridays. This year Dad's birthday fell on a Saturday so we decided to have a small bbq at our place since there's so many grandkids. Surprisingly our youngest brother, Anthony, was able to make it! We usually only see him out and about during the holidays. Our other brother, Jr was also able to sneek away from work for lunch too. The middle bro, Don, is still in Oklahoma :(

Anyway, it was good family time. Jeremiah convinced himself it was his birthday eventhough I kept telling him it was Grandpa's. I just let it go after a while and let him blow out the candles with his cousin Valerie. The adults even got to play a little poker later that night and some of us eventually made our way to Barona! :D Thanks to Jenner & Rex for babysitting!!!

A Kai & Miah (and Emma) weekend (Feb 20, 2010)

This particular weekend Miah was missing playing with Kai and it just so happened my sister needed a mini-vacay! So, she brought Kai down for the weekend. I thought it would be fun to get the boys in the kitchen so the project for the day was cupcakes! ooh, were they excited! Emma watched and enjoyed the end product.

playdate (feb 19, 2010)








Jeremiah & Emma finally had a playdate with their friend Joelle! Luckily I had a day off from school and so did Jos and Shirl! I had been meaning to take Miah & Em to My Kids Clubhouse and they loved it! It was a really cool place for them to play, plus they had tables where the parents could sit & get some work done if they wanted. Definitely going back there!
