Sandbox

Ava was playing in the sandbox when I went over to pick her up. She was so happy dumping the sand into the pail and kept digging for more. I just love it everytime i see her having so much fun at preschool. She painted, played, listened to the teachers, ate her snacks and played outside. She always sounded so happy everytime she saw when I picked her up. She'd shout "mama, mama" and give me a huge smile.

We're re-arranging our rooms right now. Ava's room is going to be Colin's. Colin's crib which is currently in the guest room will become Ava's room. HL's old room will become the guest room. We're moving things in and out and right now.. our house is a MESS.

Ava seemed to learn a lot from school. I took her back to her room after she pooped, she said "thank you mommy". Then, after I laid her down to her bed, she said "good night, mommy".. My heart just melted. She sounded sooooooooo sweet.. :)

House warming at Flo

HL invited us to her condo for a housewarming. She invited 2 other families but they didn't show up. Poor girl. It was just us at the end. After eating some of the fruits and desserts she prepared, we went back home. HL and Jenny wanted to take tomo out for a walk, so we all went. Ava was so excited and kept dragging momo with her around the cul-de-sac. It was pretty funny to watch. Colin was riding in his little car and he was really enjoying himself. Relaxing like a king being served by his servants. :)

Such a nice day today.. I love it when the weather is so nice like this.

Swim Class

Finally we made it to the 2nd swim class after missing the 1st class. Both Ava and Colin were so excited when we arrived at the pool. I had to keep telling Ava that we have to wait for the teachers. This class, Ava had to swim without parents. I was kinda worried that she won't go in if we didn't go in the pool with her. At the end, my worry was nothing because she went happily with the instructor. Simon was taking pictures of us because he didn't go into the water. I went in with Colin for his Starfish class. The water was warm and we're very comfortable in it. Colin was happily splashing and kicking in the water. I have 2 water babies which was so great. I'm very glad that they're not afraid of water because I LOVE water. :) Can't wait for our next class.

Thai Night

Had dimsum for breakfast with HL and Jenny at Wah Wing Restaurant. I was playing peek-a-boo with Colin there. We saw Simon's friend when we're done. He and his wife also have a daughter around Ava's age, but she went to Taiwan with her grandma for 3 months, so they're alone now in the house. That was so nice because I can hardly remember the last time Simon and I were alone. We then talked about the possibility of sending Colin back with my mom so we can get a break. But after thinking about it, I don't think I can NOT see my little prince for that long. He's demanding and clingy and whiny, but he's mine. :) I'm such a sucker.. :)

Around 2-3pm, Patrick and Sharon came to prepare our feast for tonight. After our success last time with Indonesian night, we decided to do a monthly gathering with different cuisines to cook each month. This month was Thai. I baked the cake already for dessert, and my other dishes were Pad See Ew and Farmer's Lunch. Simon's dishes were the Thai Ice Tea (store bought.. haha), and grilled Thai shrimp. Patrick came with his own food processor and a frying pan. He's so funny. Sharon made Red Curry per Sheila's request and Thai salad. Patrick made Tom Yum Goong soup and an appetizer with ground pork and shrimp (forgot to ask him what it's called). The kids were still napping so Sheila and Stephen're not here yet.

Since I had marinated and did some prep already earlier, I was just watching Patrick and Sharon cooked. The end results were amazing. Everything smelled sooo good.
Sheila arrived around 5pm. She biked here with Jeremy (in his carriage). We waited for Sharon and Stephen because they had to go pick up their car from the auto shop. Around 6pm, we started eating.

We started with the Tom Yum Goong soup and it was so delicious. Then, we ate salad and the farmer's lunch. Continued on with Pad See Ew and Red Curry with Rice while nibbling on the grilled Thai shrimps. I was so full by the time I finished my Pad See Ew. What a great turnout. Everyone was very full and had to stop for a break.

After clearing the plates away, we each wrote down a country/cuisine we wanted to try next month and then asked Ava to pick one. Next cuisine is Middle eastern and it'll be on Nov 8th at Sheila and Patrick's. Can't wait. I'll have to start researching on middle eastern cuisine because I've never had it before and definitely've never cooked it. What a fabulous night!!!!

Little Ashwin

Went to visit Herjit and little Ashwin this morning. So many kids there, Brigit and Sheila're there and Weeze's too. After awhile, Kathy and Andrea came too. Colin was pretty happy because there're lots of boy toys compared to his sister's toys at home. He was picking away on the toys. But he got clingy again and wanted me to hold him. I got to hold Ashwin for awhile and he was such a sweetheart. He was sleeping the whole time I was holding him. It's so weird b/c it seemed like Colin was that small not too long ago, and now I look at Colin, he's crawling and standing up and whining and faking already. Time really does fly. We stayed there until 11:20am and then went home.

After dinner, I started baking my dessert for tomorrow's party. It's the pandan sponge cake. Pretty nice considering it's my first time to bake it. :)
Can't wait for tomorrow.. :)

Chart

So I've been trying this new thing with Ava. I've had some struggles in getting her to nap or sleep because she'll have a bunch of excuses and won't go down. At the ask anything night, Becky mentioned some chart that she used with Griff, so I thought I'll give that a try. So far, I've been able to get Ava to finish doing things and also listen everytime I ask her to. I put down a chart for drinking milk in the morning, potty, lunch, nap, milk in the afternoon, dinner, shower and bedtime. Everytime she finished doing something, I'll let her pick a star sticker that she can put on her chart. she seemed to like it. I hope it'll last.

Went with Tracey to Superstore. I had so much fun shopping at night without kids. We both got some diapers and i also got things for the food bank. Bought some cute tights for Ava and some winter hats for Colin. I love it.. Tracey and I should definitely do this again. :)

Snacks, Paint & Haircut

I had to prepare snacks for Ava today for her preschool. I was thinking hard and then, I decided what's better than cheerios?? So I got her a cup of cheerios and a bottle of water and some cut apples. All went into her new hello kitty lunch bag. She loves it. I also brought home her painting and some envelopes she colored. I saw some kids brought paper plates they draw on or glued on, but I don't know why Ava didn't have that. Hm...

My neighbor came after dinner and cut Colin's hair. She probably needs to come back again because his sides are so uneven. But he looks pretty good. He's such a squirmy baby that it's so hard to cut his hair.

Out of shape

I went and exercised this morning. By 10:23am, I was dying. I had to quit and then went home then and when I got home, I was dizzy and wanted to throw up. How did I go from going exercising when I was pregnant to this stage???? I don't know, but I'm soooo tired today.

One Fine Day

I'm such a klutz. This morning was supposed to be Ava and Colin's first day of swimming class. Their class is from 9am-9:30am. Usually Colin wakes up around 7:30am and will make noise, so I usually got up around that time. Today, I woke up startled and peered at my clock. It was 8:53am. I bolted up and smacked Simon (I blamed him for it because he snored around midnight therefore woke me up therefore caused me to overslept. It's my logic and I'm sticking with it). So, we missed the class. Simon said I should have set the alarm, and I said he should have stopped snoring. (I think he secretly planned this because I told him he had to get into the water with Colin since i just got my period).

We went to the Terra Nova playground today since it was such a nice day. We'd probably won't see too much of this kind of weather soon since summer's over. So we definitely had to seize the nice day as much as we can. Sharon met with us at the park and then we also saw Jessica there with Sammy and Les. Shabnem was there also with her twins (Amara and Sophie). We played for awhile and suddenly, Ava said, "Go Starbucks". Man.. we definitely had to be careful what we said around her. She knows starbucks at such early age. I'm just glad she didn't say "boy, I need coffee".

Side notes:
I had been reading a lot this week. I think I read 4-5 books in just this one week. It felt awesome!!

Korean BBQ

I woke up with a headache and I also found out why I couldn't fit in my red heels. It's because I'm bloated. My period had visited me. After lazying in bed for awhile, we went and ate brunch at Kingspark restaurant. Saw Laura, Andre and Henry there when they left. Laura's not feeling well and they were heading out for their fall photo shoot. It was kinda raining though, so I don't know how the photo shoot went. After brunch, we went to Richmond Center and I bought some clothes for Colin at Gymboree (shopaholic in action). Went home and put them for nap, and then headed out to Tracey's house. I haven't seen her for awhile (ever since she started working), and I miss her. So, we chatted while Owen were playing and then watched his elmo's world. It was nice chatting away without having to watch the kids with the corner of my eyes. I stayed there till 4pm. Arrived home to poor Colin who already woke up from his nap but didn't get any milk from daddy and was still in his soiled diaper (what was Simon thinking???). Quickly made his milk and changed him, then Ava was up and we were headed out to meet HL and Jenny for dinner at Jang Mo Jib (Korean BBQ Restaurant).

Colin, Ava and myself had a lot of fun playing after we finished dinner. Ava was so cute because she kept hugging Colin and Colin kept giggling when she did that. They were playing nicely together. We had to stop by at the grocery store because Ava started to chant "yogurt, yogurt" right away after we put her in her carseat. She likes those yakult type yogurt (liquid yogurt), and I ran out already, so had to buy some. I saw some new drinks at the grocery store, so I bought some because I like trying new drinks. :)

Watched "Made of Honor" on TV with Simon. It was pretty good. Patrick Dempsey is so hot!!

Side notes:
- When we were at Gymboree, Ava came up to us and said "OH MY GOD". I cracked up. I had no idea where she picked this up, but I assumed she must have heard it somewhere because it a pretty common phrase.
- I had been losing some weight after I got back from the US. I remembered weighing myself (at the insistence of my sister) at 142 lbs (exactly the weight right before I gave birth to Ava). I lost my appetite and just didn't feel like eating after I got back. I ate because I had to, but I didn't eat too much, and this morning, I gave in and weighed myself. I was pretty surprised that i weighed 133 lbs. If I keep this up, I might be able to lose more weight.. yoohoo..

The Women

Sharon, Elisa and I decided to go see a movie at night. Simon dropped me off at a Tim Horton near Sharon's work place at Annacis Island around 5pm, I fed Colin while Ava and Simon had some fries, then left with Sharon to Elisa's house in Burnaby. It was fun, I haven't done the girls night out for awhile so I was really looking forward to it. We decided to watch "The Women" starring Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Jada Pinkett Smith, Debra Messing and Eva Mendes. It's a total chick flick. They have friendship, affairs, children, career, labor, etc. Anything you can think of, they have it. I probably won't recommend seeing it in the theater, you can wait for the DVD to come out if you really want to see it.

I was wearing my red heels for this occasion and I don't know why I got blisters on both my feet. This heels was supposed to be my comfortable heels. I was so messed up, by the end of the movie, I can barely walk. We decided to go for dessert and drink after the movie, and we ended up in Cactus Club. I ordered a martini called "hypnotiq breeze" because I saw it has the blue caracao in the ingredients. I've always wanted to try the "blue drink" but never got the chance (pregnancies and breast feedings got in the way). So this time.. I finally ordered it. I love it. It's very nice. Elisa and Sharon both ordered smoothies (pregnant and DD) and Elisa also ordered a key lime pie. We chatted for awhile (till midnight.. woohoo!!). This was the first time after how many years that I went out till so late. I enjoyed it immensely. We should do this more often ladies!!!

Move away Van Gogh, Picasso... here comes..

Miss Ava was so happy at school today. I dropped her off, and she directly went to the painting area. The teacher set up a piece of paper for her and she started painting. I couldn't stop myself, so I went in and snapped some pictures. She's so cute.. hahahaha

Then, I went earlier to pick her up, I saw that everyone was sitting on their chair, but Ava kept standing up and wanted to walk around. The teacher kept telling her to go back to her seat. She obeyed. How come she didn't obey like that at home? hehehe
So they were forming a line, and she waited patiently until the teacher call her name. How cute is that???? I'm such a sappy mom.. :) I think I was the only mom there who kept trying to take picture through the itty bitty window on the door.

Colin and I had this little game we invented today. He'll sit facing me on the sofa, then he bumped his head to my tummy and got up again, then bumped again... he'll do this over and over, and I'll act like I'm trying to catch his head everytime he did that. I'll also make some sound effect, and he loves it. He kept giggling everytime i did the sound effect.. He's also sooo cute.. hehehehehe

Ava loves school.... so much that I can actually use the school as a threat or a bribe. If I asked her to do something and she doesn't want to, I'll say, do you want to go to school?? and she'll say yes, then I'll say.. then you'll have to listen, if not, mommy won't take you to school.. It's been working so I'm very happy... hehehehe.. but I don't know if it's wise to keep doing this.. :)

Oooommmmm

Don't worry. I'm calmed down now. I have gone and took a shower and all is good. :)
Now I'm going to continue reading and then go to bed...
Ooooommmmmmmmmmm..................

Pissed Off!!

I'm so freaking pissed off today. Simon made a comment after his dinner that I used so many pots for cooking.. Well I'll be damn!!! I used 1 pot for soup, 1 for chicken and 1 for veggie and apparently that's A LOT!!!! Then.. he has freaking 3 laptops going all at once EVERYDAY.. he used more than 3 cups/day. He throws so many freaking toothpicks around, and he has more than 2 badminton rackets.. how can he explained all that????? I cook for the whole family and 3 pots he said is a lot. Then.. how many hands does he has that he needs 3 laptops and 3 rackets?????? and why he only has 1 mouth but uses 3 freaking cups everyday???????

I don't mean to sound like a maniac.. which I probably am right now.. but I'm so freaking tired of all this stupid complaints!!!!! I have feeling too!!!! sometimes I just want to drown... and drown and drown and don't want to get up...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wishy Washy....

Didn't do much today. I cooked fishballs soup and then took Ava to her pre-school. Today was also 1 hour long. I was scrambling because I forgot to fill out the parent agreement handbook, so I sped to do some grocery then home to fill out the handbook. Suddenly, it was 9:35 am already so I had to go pick Ava up. She didn't do any artwork today, she was running around and playing at the yard when I saw her. I didn't take any picture today because the battery on my camera died on me. So I had to recharge... therefore, no picture today.

I would label today as a wishy washy day. Nothing's going on. Did grocery at the super grocer and saw Becky and Kristina. Wished Becky a Happy Birthday and chatted a little bit with Kristina. Then, I dropped off the snap N go at Herjit's. Thanks Becky for giving Christy the Snap N Go, and thanks Christy for letting me use it first for Colin. It was a great little stroller.

I told Simon that I'll be a celibate until he purchased the tickets to Florida.. so no action going on..
Peace out!!!

Haircut ..... again..

We got Colin a ride on/bouncy zebra the other day and I managed to capture some of his pictures today. He couldn't get on by himself, but he could get off. My smart little boy.. :)

Since tomorrow Ava's going to her preschool again and I thought her hair's getting kinda long. We decided that it's time for a haircut again. Don't worry Tracey.. this time I took her to that Sparsky place at Lansdowne. I must say that I don't like the lady. She was rushing because it was closed to closing time. Plus, I think she was building up her steam from a picky customer before us who kept saying she cut her boy's hair wrong. So she was not very nice to us, who was definitely a very good customer. This was Ava's first time in having her hair cut by others. She's usually cut by yours truly. She was moving quite a lot because she didn't like the feel of the hair on her feet and on her face. I like her haircut, but I don't like the lady who cut it. So, next time.. I think we're not going back there anymore..

After haircut, we went to the new BK at Bridgeport. It's very new and everything looks so clean. Loved the high chair. Notice how Colin sat on the chair? hehehehe

New Carseat and Mooncake Festival

We finally bought Colin the forward facing carseat. He's been complaining (screaming) whenever we put him in the infant carseat (apparently he thinks he's not a baby anymore). So, we went to Toys R us and got him an Eddie Bauer Deluxe carseat. He seemed to like it, but after awhile, he faked crying. He's such a faker.

I have so many stories to tell about him.. When we were on the road trip, I entertained Ava by singing and one of the song is Old Macdonald, and therefore we're doing a lot of animal noises. One of the animal noises we did was COW. And, Colin liked it and started to mimic us. He said," OOO OOOO OOOO" instead of "MOO". Then, I caught him tilting his head backward and pursing his lips forward when he said it. It's SOOOOO cute and funny.. So, now i've been asking him.. how does cow sound like?? and then I'll go "moo moo" and he'll follow suit with his "ooo ooo".. :)

Another thing that he likes to do is throwing tantrum by leaning forward on the floor while fake crying. He looked like an actor who's playing the weakling part or the one who's been bullied. It's so funny. Everytime he did it, it just cracked me up. He must be thinking his mom is so cruel, instead of holding him and comforting him, she just laughed at him..hahahahahaha

He also likes the game of "stop and go".. He will crawl and then stop and turn back to look at me to see if I'm following him or chasing him.. If I pretend that I'll chase him, he'll laugh and then crawl faster, or sometimes he'll laugh and then crawl towards me so it seems like he's chasing me. Then, I'll run and he will laugh even louder.

Ok, enough about Colin. Tonight we're having a BBQ Mooncake Festival in our backyard. Sharon organized this event and had asked to borrow my backyard/house and my BBQ to hold this event. I said yes if she helped me decorate and clean up. So, she has invited Serene, Lian, and Carolyn. Meg and Elisa couldn't make it because of work and sickness. Everybody brought food and the kids were running around playing at the backyard. The yellow sand digger was a big hit with the boys (and a big baby.. hahaha sorry Serene!!). Simon's BBQ skill has also improved. The chicken wings were very good. Not as burnt as last time (where I had to eat almost all of them). We also had steak, corn, zuccini, tomatoes, fishballs, and sweet potatoes. It was a lot. Carolyn brought triffle and it's so delicious. Lian made her own homemade bread rolls (cornmeal and whole wheat), and also "Bak Tong Gou" (a kind of chinese cake.. so yummy). She's the domestic goddess.. she made everything from scratch.. bless her.. :)

After eating and playing outdoor, we put out the bouncy castle for the kids. Of course.. another big hit for the kids (and Edwin.. hahahahaha.. sorry Serene, but he's just too funny). It's a sure way to tire the kids out. Pretty sure everyone's children had a good sleep at night.

Suki my haircut and Ask Anything

Since I figured that I've updated my blog, I made an appt for a haircut at Suki's. I've seen Amy and Sam's haircut and I love them. They had theirs cut at Suki's so I figured I'd give it a try.
I got an appt for noon with Jeremiah (I think Amy and Sam was cut by him also). Then, after getting the kids fed and prepared their napping essentials, I took off.

What an experience. They have a massage chair when washing your hair. I told Jeremiah that I wanted something trendy, easy to take care of, not boring, and most importantly, have to look good on me. hehehehe I'm so vain.. :)
So, the result you can see in the picture. What do you think??? is it ok??
I suki (japanese, meaning: like) my new haircut. :)

Went to Tropika for dinner with Huilee and Jenny. After dinner, I picked up Sharon and we carpooled to Riverwind's Club House for the "Ask Anything" Mom Night's In. I was looking forward to it. I had sent in my question, which was: How often do married couples with kids get intimate? and what do they do to spice up their love life?? hehehehehe.

So, after everyone got there, Herjit started the first round of questions, which were regarding the children. I learned a lot from other moms on how to deal with toddler/preschooler with their whining/throwing tantrum. I definitely have to talk to Simon about NOT spoiling Ava. She's a smart girl and she knows how to work her charms on Simon. She can't get away with everything with me, but she can with Simon. After the children question, we did a survey on the sex question. It was fun. I can't believe the things I put down.. HAHAHAHAHA

Then, we went into the more serious questions regarding the moms. First question was: "Has your self-image/attitude to your body been negatively affected by having children? Does anyone have any suggestions so I can be less self-conscious of my body and appearance?". This question hit very close to home. I have been complaining about my tummy to ANYONE who wants to listen for awhile. I understand about the pouch, but I can't accept the scrunched up excess skin in the middle of it. And also my hernia that made my belly button stuck out. I have been dealing with that by wearing tights that cover up to my tummy and long shirt/blouse. To add a bit confidence, I've been strutting my heels everywhere I go. I really hope that I can pay less attention to it, but it's been proven hard to do. I just hope I'll be able to get through it one of these days.

There're a lot more good questions, but I didn't feel like discussing them here. I think at the end, everyone gain something tonight. All the different perspectives from different moms with different issues really opened up a channel of communication. I felt glad that everyone stood up and gave their opinions and thoughts and experiences on the issues discussed. I'd definitely be looking forward to going to this meetup again in the future.

All caught up

So.. finally my blog's caught up. All the new posts you saw today.. I posted this morning.
It's pretty hard with a clingy 10 months old circling under my feet and whining.
I'm glad I got it done. So I can go back to my "hopefully" scheduled update once a night. :)

Ava's First Day of Pre-school

This morning Ava woke up at 5am claiming she wanted to pee. I brought her to the bathroom but NADA.. i think she just wanted to get out of bed, so I put her back in. Then she woke up again at 7am. Today is her first day of pre-school and I was so excited and anxious at the same time. I didn't know how she would react to being left in the school by herself (I was there though for the first day.. so she wouldn't be alone.. I was just hiding outside and peeking through the small window on the door). I dressed her, prepared her 4x6 picture and then brought her water and off we went. Her pre-school is at the Thompson Community Center. We got there on 8:45am. I had to fill out some paperworks and then waited outside. I told Ava that I'll pick her up in a little bit and she should stay there and play. She said "OTAY". So I left (the room). She walked and sat down at one of the table by herself and started playing with the crayons. She just sat there and not socializing with other kids. I was afraid that she won't play in groups.

After awhile, the teacher, Miss Kathy, had everyone in a circle and the started to sing that Bumblebee song.. I think it went like this "tickly tickly bumblebee, can you say your name for me.. Ava, Ava.. that's a very nice name".. (We sang this song also during our stroller workout, I wonder if she remembers). I didn't know if she actually said her name, but the teacher was pausing in front of her for quite a while.. hehehehe

After the circle time, they went outside and played at the gated playground. Ava loves playground so I bet she had a very nice time. Tried to take some pictures there, but probably didn't get a good one. After the playground, everyone was leaning against the gate and saying bye bye (I think..). She saw me then and ran towards me yelling "mama, mama".. ooohhh, what a nice gesture and view (from me).. :)
I asked her if she wanted to come to school again next time and she said"yes". YOOHOO!!! one down, one more to go!!!

Flying back home

Woke up at 5:30am. Washed up and then last minute checking and packing. Woke up the groggy babes and off we went. First, we had to return the rental car, and then took the shuttle to the terminal. Luckily Ava was being very cooperative. We had a little bit of problem at the check in. I checked in online last night and paid for the excess baggages, but it turned out that carseats are free. So I overpaid by 20 bucks. They had to give me back some credit and then I had to re-arrange some of the content in the luggages because some were overweight. But luckily we didn't pay extra for anything else.

After we passed the security checkpoint, Ava was walking the whole way to the gate. We're much more relaxed this time and carrying less carry-ons.

We ate at the Atlanta Bread Company and Ava insisted on having a chocolate ice cream. So she did. We boarded the plane afterwards, then we began another LONG flight home..
Ava slept well, but Colin didn't.

After we arrived in Seattle, picked up our car, we went to Bellevue in search of food. Found this Thai restaurant and since there're not a lot of good thai food in Vancouver we figured, why not..
It turned out.. not that great. Then, we went to the Container Store to buy the shoes compartment Huilee asked for. After that.. TARGET!!! Yoohoo!!

We shopped for Colin's bedroom. We're thinking that it's time to theme Ava and Colin's room. So, we're going to do some re-decorating, painting and some re-arranging of furnitures. Can't wait. I'm so pumped.

On our way to Target, Colin was screaming again, and I had to twist my arm and kinda hold his face. He's quiet then. But whenever I removed my hand, he screamed. So I sat beside him after Target. He was a happy camper then.. He's so clingy that I had to hold his hand the whole way home. I can't believe it, but that's what happened.

Home exhausted, bathed the kids. Then everyone went zzzzzz....

Last Day in Atlanta

Started packing and realized that I bought too many clothes for the kids. So here I was panicking about the weight restriction and that my luggages were not big enough to hold all my new purchases. I had to "steal" my brother's suitcases so I can put everything in. I also had to pay for extra luggages because seems like we have 4 luggages and 2 carseats to check in. I also had 1 carryon, 1 stroller, 1 similac bag and 1 handbag. So I paid 30 bucks extra for the extra luggages.

Simon came back early from work so we can do some last minute shopping. We went to Ross and got some DVDs for Ava. Then, stopped by Famous Foorwear and DSW. Didn't get anything though. Dinner at Bahama Breeze and then home.

Packed packed and packed. Head's pounding. Put the babes to bed and set alarm and zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.............

Roadtrip Raleigh to Atlanta

Another long drive today. Stopped by the outlet mall at Gaffney. Bought some clothes for Ava and Colin at Children's Place and Carter's. Colin was not a happy baby. So tired.....

Old friend

Went to Target again today with mom and dad while the kids were napping.
Then, at night, my friend, Kam Jr, stopped by and chatted. Been so long...
I'm going to introduce him to my youngest sister.. woohoo!!!

Chi's Home

Chi came home today. She looked good.. so that's good.
Darwin drove up last night and was playing with the kids.
Mom cooked dinner and after dinner, Ava and Tyler played baseball on wii. That was really funny to see how they managed to bat and pitch. :)
