Let's be adults...

This weekend, the hubs and I left Bug with my parents and took off to do some adult things...like running errands and attending Wyatt's 80's themed Christmas party for work.  Because Bug has taken up...oooohhh...ALL our time, it's been really hard to find time to run any errands and by the time you do find a moment, we're so exhausted we just want to sleep.  The night before Wyatt's Christmas party, we decided that we should finally try to pick out some 80's-type clothing for this themed party.  Who knew we could piece together an outfit without buying a single thing!  Really, the 80's was an awful time for fashion...let's be honest.  If I can still reach in my closet and grab this and that and something else and still be able to come up with something semi-80's, the 80's has got some issues.  Check us out, being all adult!  (Thanks to Papa for capturing this "dressed up" moment, which seem to be so few these days.)






While we were out partying for the night, Bug was at Mama and Papa's house, doing what she does best- socializing...

Boy she looks mad.  This look is now her usual look.




Wow, she looks pretty Asian here.  How does this child look so different in EVERY photo?

Here's our own little Chatty Kathy talking to Mama.  There aren't enough words to describe how my heart melts when she smiles and talks!

On Sunday we even got to meet up with Lola Jing and Lolo Glenn...

It was one busy weekend!  Now, we get one week to rest (if there is even time to rest with Bug around) before we make the drive to Yreka for Christmas.  

God Bless,
Kat

4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 month Cub (9, 10, 11 too)

Clearly I've missed a few monthly updates of the Cub.  I apologize.  We were busy and life has literally taken us for a whirlwind ride.  To be really honest, I lost a lot of motivation to write these past few months because I've every time I started to write, all I could think to write about was my grandpa, Papang, how much I've missed him, and the endless tears that came out when I thought of him.  Every time I reflected back on the moments with my kids and my family, I seemed to cry, thinking of how much he's missed even in the short 5 months he's been gone.  After months of tears and prayers, I feel like I'm officially starting to feel like I'm healing.  While I know I may not heal completely, I can function without tears flowing from my eyes every moment of silence. Cubby has grown quite a bit (to say the least) since my 3 month update.  Here is the gentle giant's growth in months 4, 5, 6, and 7. This weekend, Cubby turned 8...

"Thank you for being a friend..."

[And now, a short introduction with the theme song to the sitcom, The Golden Girls] "Thank you for being a friend, Traveled down the road and back again. Your heart is true your a pal and a confidant. And if you through a party, Invited everyone you ever knew... You would see the biggest gift would be from me, And the card attached would say thank you for being a friend." This morning, Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche Devereaux on my favorite show, The Golden Girls, passed away. If you know me, you could understand how upset I might be.  (Quote from Blanche:  " There is a fine line between having a good time and being a wanton slut. I know. My toe has been on that line." ) The Golden Girls was, is and will always be my favorite show...EVER. Within the last few years, both Estelle Getty (who played Sophia) and Bea Arthur (who played Dorothy) passed away as well and that in itself was a tragedy; for we all know what an amazing duo they made!    (Quote fro...

What if...

I was on the phone today with my brother, Kyle, and was telling him about my emotionally charged moment in a parking lot as I dropped off the hubs at work after having lunch with him.  As I drove through the aisle of the parking lot, a parked car quickly backed out of it's spot without looking.  My natural instinct, of course, was to stop, rather than move forward.  Thankfully, however, the car quickly stopped itself from hitting the front passenger side of my car, where the hubs was sitting.  I pulled into a spot to calm myself down.  My heart was racing.  Wyatt turned to me and asked, "Are you okay?"  I just could not find the words to respond.  (Strange, I know.)  I was breathing so heavily and I think he realized I was about to freak out and said, "We're fine.  She didn't hit us."  He was right.  The driver had stopped quickly enough and everyone was safe.  However, I still could not get myself to calm down.  3, 2...
