Typical

We love spending time with our families.  This weekend, after having some family time, just the three of us, we got to spend some quality time with Uncle Scott, Ninang, and Ninong.

Bug waiting with Ma-Ma and Da-Da at Toyota, while the car got serviced.  She was so good on Saturday morning!  They said the car would take two hours, so we decided to leave it and walk around Pasadena.  When we got back to the dealership, it took another hour and a half and the car was already done! The entire time, Bug made some friends at the dealership and hung out in the stroller, talking...LOUDLY.
After the car was done, we went to have lunch with Uncle Scott.  Unfortunately, I have no pics with Uncle Scott.  Parental FAIL.  I charged my camera just for that and nothin'.  Nada.  I apologize. 

After lunch with Uncle Scott, we went to keep Ninang and Ninong company.  Although Bug caught a fever that night, she was still in a semi-chipper mood.  By the way...who needs toys?  This girl loves chip bags!  It kept her preoccupied forever.  (Yeah, we're those parents.)
After staying awake all day, Ninang took Bug upstairs and forced her to nap. When we checked on them, this is what we found...
Tell me you don't think this is the cutest moment EVER.  EVER.  What a natural!  My sister is going to make an amazing mom. Good thing because that baby's coming out soon!
Ninang's method to get Bug to sleep:  Hug her tight and don't let go.  (If you know Bug, you know that staying still is not on her list of talents.)  How long did this nap last?  Oooh...20 minutes.  ::SIGH::  Typical.

Oh, we're still practicing the crawling thing.  It's going to happen soon, folks.  I can feel it.  We went gate hunting yesterday and found nothing that was right for us.  The search continues.  We did buy some safety locks for drawers and outlet covers, though.  Parental SUCCESS.
Check out Bug's push-up in this video!
These days, it feels like anticipating what Bug will do next is next to impossible.  It more or less feels like we're trying to catch up! She is growing so quickly!

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...
