OOOO Cali!!

What can I say !! I have been having so much fun this week and it has been going by so fast! We have HOT weather here and its great! Im really thinking of going to the beach tommrrow.. we took our family pictures on Monday with one of my best friends/sister.. we had so much fun editing them.. and loved our sticking chicken! Im truly blessed to have her in my life! Seen the family is awesome, dad is still into his cars.. adina and alana adore my mother! My dad got Alana ears pierced! She did really good... Aunts are great like always.. my nephews adore me! I hate that Im leaving.. yes im using "hate" as a word... I cant wait to come back to Cali...

4 months now!!!

This lil one is now 4 months and I cant believe it! She is such a great baby!! She sleeps forever cause I put her down at 10pm and she doesnt get up for her feeding until maybe 6am! She is so alert now its crazy, she is talking so much too.. she is so much fun to play with and loves it when adina talks to her! She is finding out how her lil hands work, they are always in her mouth like she is teething or something! She loves her rice and oatmeal too! Its funny cause she does this fake cry when she sees her bottle and she knows she is getting it! Im so amazed on how much this lil one means to me, I can be having the worse day ever and all I do is just smile at her and she smiles back! She looks like me when I smile (( full of gums )) .. she rolled over last night but it might of been the blankets.. Albert adores her! Last night we were over there, and he swears that she says, "UNCLE"... so finally I was there to see what all the fuss was about and I do admit it did sound it like. Haha!

Sundays @ the Corpus House

I LOVE sundays..not only for church, dont get me wrong but whenever church is done we drive down the Corpus House... This is what we do!!! Ya we are a lil crazy but we laugh so much...she is going to kill me cause I put this on but she will awesome about it... we just decided to put tape on our face and take our picture... the hubbies thought it was pretty as well! So enjoy everybody!!

What if....

What if :: so this came to me tonight while I was talking to my sister back in Chino Hills Ca. I had a lot on my mind and sooo many blessing has been coming to our family! Our Heavenly Father has been blessing us and letting us know that he does hear our prayers, and that he answers them when we least expect it ( he really does)... Some times I wonder why? and dont know why....There is some many questions that I have for our Heavenly Father. I try so hard to be a good person and a good mother and "sometimes" a good wife. Then I wonder if it is good enough for him. Time flys by so quickly and Im a true believer that there is a Prophet here on earth. I do also believe that our father in heaven did appear to Joesph Smith. There are so many things that people take for granted that our God has created for us... times like this makes me be thankful for his wonderful ideas.... I gotten over the ,"I want to go back to Cali." thing... I know that he been right next to me and my family to overcome this situation. Honestly, if you really think about it what if we didnt have :

• Cell phones...( I need that to call my sister cause it doesnt charge my phone for long distance)
• Internet...( I could receive pictures from the family that they take that same day)
• A roof over our heads...
• Vehicle
• Airplanes
• Bed to sleep on
• Air condition
• Husband/Wife
• Children ( wait that would be a good thing to not have any... j/k )
• Friends
• Camera
• Clothing
• Garments ( cant wait to get mine )
• Food on the table
• yard sales ( had to put that one in )
• Family
• Comfort/ safety
• Knowing that we have something to look forward to when our Heavenly Father calls us back home.
• Temples
• THE CHURCH.....

I would be lost! Okay okay gettin rid of the cell phones, Internet thang! I know that sometimes I take life for granted and I know I shouldnt... I need to be patient about things and always remember the "Our time, is waaayyy different from God's time" we may want things NOW!!! but we need to wait and listen to the spirit! and that is sometimes hard for me. I need to remember to thank him for everything that he has provided for my family and friends. There are so many blessing that he gives us and never stops giving. Sometimes I need to slow down and take one day at a time cause we need to live life to the fullest!

Can't Sleep...

because the hubby is on graveyard and I hate it! It started on the 6th of July and I still cant deal with it...I have both girls in my bed every night that he is at work. Adam doesn't like the fact that they are in the bed with me. So when he gets home every morning, I put the girls back in their bed! I'm also awake due to Alana wanting another bottle ( which I'm used to). There are so many reasons why I need Adam home, ya ya I'm being a baby but I want him here with me...

1. I need to feel that I'm safe! (I'm safe really, I don't live in a town where is there a lot of trouble.)
2. Who will wake up with the baby for her second feeding at night?
3. I put my face in his back when I sleep, but wait cant do that cause he's gone!
4. If I hear a noise outside, who is gonna check? ( not me! )
5. If I have a nightmare, I cant tell Adina cause it will just scare her too.
6. Knowing that he is at work while I'm sleeping makes me feel guilty for some reason.
7. Trying to have Adina play without making any noise so he can sleep is kinda hard! She is so used of playing with him and screaming and yelling down the hallway.
8. I've been trying to leave the house so he can get sleep, but then the house is so dirty, the laundry is not done and it is over flown the basket!
9. Its only for 6 months, but that 6 months is going to be a long 6 months!
10. I doesn't like looking at him when he just wakes up, when he only gets maybe 3 hours of sleep cause he cant sleep.

Well I have 2 more hours until he comes home and he told me that when he comes home he is just going to stay awake until church. So ladies, if you hear some snoring during sacrament, you know who it is. Let me just tell you now, we are very sorry for the snoring!

Go to sleep!

So I just got done giving her a bath, and thinking that she will fall asleep... NOPE! I can still hear her crying in her room and nothing is wrong with her. She is fed, diaper is changed, and she just had a bath! She is begining to get were she wants to be held, and I CAN hold her but sometimes when I need to finish the kitchen from dinner, her lil cries need to calm down. Then she does that cry were if I would of droped her or something. I know she is tired cause she just fell asleep and her "Big Sister" woke her up! So thats when I decided to give her the relaxing bath, thinking that she would go back to sleep. UGH! In other news she is growing so quick and I begining to see me in her more and more.... and a good friend said that she has a lil of Adam in her! No!!! I need Alana to be ALL me. He already has Adina thats like his twin and she has NOTHING of ME!! I cant wait till she starts talking and crawing! That is the best part I think, she is smiling and I love it, whenever adam talks to her she smiles. (I love it) Oh her hair is growing like crazy :O)...soon the fishtales will work! ( thanks brenda!)

The Visit from Auntie..

So on Tuesday I drove to Portland ( with both girls by myself) to pick up my sister from the airport..I was a little worried that she would get home sick but I still went... I was afraid too cause she has never flew on a airplane.. So my mom calls me while I was driving to go get her and she told me that she is really worried that I was not going to be there to pick her up... and that she had a really hard time getting on the plane... So im trying to hurry and get the airport A.S.AP!.. On the way over there, I was maybe like 5-10 minutes away... and it just starts to rain and I mean rain where I wanted my wipers so go faster cause I couldnt see!!! I was going like 20 miles an hour on the freeway... it wasnt only me driving like that it was everyone else too...I do admit I was a lil scared... so while im driving through the rain that was pouring down on me, my phone rings and it was my sister!!! AHHH!!! She told me to not hurry and dont rush cause she knew I had both girls! We get to the airport and it was sunny and blue sky which was really wired.. so I park and get the girls down and walked to the elevator and remind you I parked on the 5th floor, we get to the elevator and it was out of order!!! ughhhh!!! I was soooo mad ..so there I am hold the baby ( cause I didnt bring her stroller so I can make room for my sister luggage) and Im holding adina's hand cause she gets a lil scared walking down the steps... it was such a mission getting down those darn stairs!!

We took her to the waterfalls which also was the first time for us too.. It was so neat... She stood until saturday and I didnt want to take her back... It was soooo hard but I knew the day was going to come weather I like it or not.... You can tell that she was from outer town, she was taking picture of the water tower it reminded her of the movie "Whats eating Gilbert Grape".. she was getting souvenir's from our hardware/ pharmacy! She knew our lil tax thing where we dont have to pay for taxes.. so everywhere we went she wanted me to show them my i.d so we didnt have to pay for taxes.. even when we were in tri-cites at taco bell she wanted me to show them too...it was soo funny!!! Gotta love those people from L.A... Cant wait to see her again...
