Privileges

Happy Monday!  This weekend I had a bridal shower to attend in Orange County.  A few days before, the hubs and I decided it would be a good idea to leave Bug with my parents overnight so that we could have some uninterrupted time together.  To add to it all, the hubs and I both had Friday off (yahoo!) so we got to run errands together...babyLESS.  It's been awhile.  We got so much accomplished!  I forgot what it felt like to get all your errands done in one day, let alone one morning!  

My date for the day.
Since we knew we'd be away for the weekend, we picked up Bug from day care and let her skip half the day so she could hang with her parents (something she'll probably outgrow soon enough, anyway).  
Mama and Bug time at Starbucks.  Did I mention how much this girl loves Starbucks already?  She gets so excited to see that green straw!
Bridal shower for Dr. Amanda! :)
After the bridal shower, the hubs and I went to dinner in Newport Beach and had some adult drinks!
We picked up Bug from my parents' house on Sunday and it was so hot out that we decided to let Ella sit in a "bath" in the backyard.  Get ready for some super cute pics!
 Gettin' ready...
 Testing out the water...
 <3 this cute face!
 New habit.
 Bug is learning lots of things these days...like cause and effect.  For example...if you drop something, someone will pick it up for you.  This mommy, however, will only pick it up two (maybe three) times. After that, you lose your privileges. Find another toy.

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...
