SUMMER ACTIVITIES

Since angelina and bear will be starting school soon, I've been trying to the make the best out of summer with lots of parks and pools and adventures. Last week was busy and I love it like that. I will never be a mom cooped up in a house, Even when lei lei was a few weeks old I was going to playdates, parks, LAS VEGAS! Having two kids isn't easy but never hard enough for me to complain and stay in the house, actually I usually have 3!! I chose this life so there for I dont complain for what god blessed me with. This turned into a venting instead of a post..lol but hey its my blog.

hey where did you go?

faces only a mom could love!

PATIO POOL PIMPIN' (TUESDAY)

We started our day slow and the weather again was hot..ehhh We had atleast 7 loads of laundry so we to the laundry mat to get it all done. I have a love/ hate realtionship for the laundry mat. Its a bitch to get all our clothes down the stairs and go and theres always werid people there but you can't beat doing 7 loads of laundry start to finish in a hour and half. After that we came for lunch and some relaxation. When jessi made it home I decided to blow up luxourus pool and put on our patio..lol Kinda funny that fit and were three stories high! But the kids were so grateful. Jessi and me made dinner beef and broccali and extra spicy kung pao chicken with jasmine rice. Yum! but my mouth was on fire!

18 MONTH CHECK UP

Today started with a early wake up knock from gramma, she wanted to pick up the kids for park time and lunch. Since lei lei had a doctor appt. I let angelina and bear go. After they left we headed to target for a couple things needed and groceries. I like buying alot of my groceries there, so much cheaper, I cant get everything but what I can I save big! I came out of there with a target cart full top and bottom and carrying two bags for only $210! (didnt include non food items :) I raided the 1.00 area and picked up some cute stuff. Also finished buying angelina her school suppiles and a couple really cute shirts.All angelina needs a backpack..just haven't one that says ooooooh she will love this, well other than the pink juicy couture one but it was $228!!!! even for me that craziness. We headed to the doctors with lei screaming and crying til she passed out as soon as we pulled in the parking lot ( of course my luck) Shes 28 1/2 pounds 32 3/4 inches and 18 1/2 inches on her head. Her enemia is completely Gone 12.7! they pricked her twice didnt cry once, she recieved two shots too, which to my, doctor and eddie's surprise she didnt scream and cry yea! I ended up going to stater bros with my sister too, to finish my shopping, we are fully stocked couldnt fit a grape! lol

I said tiger she said GRRR!

ONE BUSY SUNDAY

We started this sunday at Taco surf with my mom, eddie stayed home , we gave him a break from us! The food was good like always but service was horrible. We headed to the park and invited grams, and aunt sherry. We ran into a huge african turtle, his owner takes him for walks there, crazy! and he was super fast too! Leilani was so into this turtle and babbling on and on to it, it was so funny. After we worn them out we all headed to berrysweet for some frozen yogurt at the buena park mall. This place is awesome 20 different choices and 50 different topping choices..I always go overbroad with toppings..lol I shared with lei lei but angelina got her own. Grams, mom and sherry left us and we headed into the mall to ross to walk around, bad idea! I found some much stuff.. ahhh walk away..I did get haviannas for angelina for only 7.99! and real croc maryjanes on clearance for 6.49, my favorite find was a old skool pair of addias for lei lei with miss chatterbox on them so freaking cute for $15 their usually $40 if you can find them! We headed home and all of us napped for 2 hours. For dinner we grilled some yummy steak and chicken kabobs with rice and salad. Such a busy weekend and many more to come :0)

LAST MINUTE BBQ

On saturday nite, Jessi's friend tess from vegas was in town and we invited her over last minute for bbq, we also invited lyn and visna too. I made blue cheese burgers with homemade blue cheese butter and hot dogs for the kiddo's. While the guys were on the patio we played cards game, the wii and the dance mimic game. The night was so fun and I love having bbq's here.

SHOPPING FRENZY

Jessi and I headed to grams for the kids then headed to do some major damage at the mall. With angelina going to school and bear too, and happy to annouce angelina's eating habits are way better even include veggies! She's actually gained some weight and needs some new clothes especially jeans in length and waist! Anyways sidetrack ..lol We started at Nordstroms at their sale for some cute shoes and shirts all on sale! Then over to my gymboree to use my coupon but huge 40% sale! Our last stop (other than the detour thru disney store for googles!) was the gap. We had the friends and family 30% coupon where I spent on stuff, jessi too! After all this shopping had to get some food which I forgot to mention lei lei was complete monster the whole time finally called eddie (come pick her up!) and he did thank god. We headed to target for the actual suppiles and lunch boxes all hello kitty for angelina. I can't wait to show you all her new outfits! I actually let her pick out some too.

NIGHT OUT FOR THE ADULT OF THE HOUSE

I love fridays always brings some kinda fun and adventure. This friday my sister and I headed to long beach for dinner and a movie. We dropped the kids off at grams for church first, and eddie is already in the LBC bike riding. We headed to the pike where there is dozen choices of resturants. Eddie rode his bike to us and we decided a new place for us, Famous Dave's BbQ. I love me some bbq! The food, the drinks were so delish! Way to much food for the 3 of us. I tried a drink called the alligator..yum! After dinner we walked over to the pike theater to watch FUNNY PEOPLE...I loved the movie and will be buying it to add to our collection. It was a great nite but I kept on thinking about how my sister was feeling with mike being gone...We just found out he wont be back til June 2010.
