A Greek wedding, Lo time, and a helper.

This weekend the hubs and I attended one of the most beautiful weddings, for our friends, Renee and Eric.  I forgot my camera (GASP!) so these photos from my lame phone will have to do.
The wedding took place at a Greek Orthodox church and from the moment we stepped in, we knew it would be an amazing ceremony and it was!  Congratulations to my sorority sister, Renee.  You deserve this happily ever after.  I love you!

We left Bug with Mama and Papa overnight and when we came back to pick her up on Sunday, we heard she had a bad night.  Then I saw Mama.  Bug had broken her.  I've never seen her so tired from one night with one baby.  Honestly, it looked like they were up all night partying.  My mother is the kid whisperer and can tame any child.  How did this happen?!?!  :/  My kid does not make it easy.  Any other volunteers for babysitters?  :/

We also had lots of girl time this weekend with Ninang and Lo.

She is so happy.





While Mommy was hanging with Lo, guess what Bug was doing?

Taking over Lo's stuff and watching Sesame Street.  Big shocker, I know.

I'm not sure if you know this, but 15 months has been rough for us.  Bug is on the move and running errands has been quite difficult without her wanting to jump out of every stroller, car seat, and shopping cart.  However, since we are headed on our road trip to Oregon this week, there was a lot to be done.  I had the day off on Monday and took Bug with me to run all my errands.  Go me!  I did them so quickly she had no time to stop and think.  I beat her at her own game.  Ah-Ha!  Mommy wins...today.

We got home and while cleaning up toys, I turned around and found a certain someone had gotten to her baby wipes and was cleaning Mommy's kitchen floor.  Awesome.  You go, kiddo.  Keep up the good work!


She cleaned the floor for 15 minutes.  She's good.  What a good helper!

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...
