Random Business

Since practicing my photography with a fancy camera, I've paid very little attention to the reliable point and shoot one we have.  I finally got a chance to see what pictures Bug and Daddy have been taking with it and found some gems.  There's a ton of random business that happens during the week when I'm at home with Bug and apparently I documented them all on the point and shoot.  No wonder I couldn't find them!  I thought I was losing my mind!  (Well, that could be lost too- amongst the pile of laundry, stacks of toys, mounds of books, and smeared banana residue.  Story.  Of.  My.  Life.)   Enjoy!

The hairline that keeps on receding.  :S


Big girl hair.


So judgmental of the headband I got her.  :/

Someone regressed back to crawling.  I think she realized that it gets the younger kids at school a lot of attention.  So she's at it again.  On my kitchen floor.  I needed a new mop, anyway.




Sometimes Daddy and I get desperate to sit down to eat a meal together.  So we resort to Sesame Street.  Don't judge me because I'm desperate to eat.





It usually lasts 20 minutes.  Oh, but 20 minutes of heaven to consume a meal at one time, without running back and forth to pick her up from falling, or chasing the cat, or whatever.  Worth it.

New boots for our Thanksgiving trip.  Test run.



Bug, boots, and bike.



Lo time.

The outfit I wish she wore for our holiday photo shoot...if we actually had fall weather.

Someone's rolling!

Lesson of the day:  Check your point and shoot every once in awhile!

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...

A Kinder Grad

Kindergarten can really take a toll on the parents.  (Yes, I meant to say parents.)  I knew we were in for a lot of activities and volunteering, but I did NOT know that it would become a second job to be an involved school parent.  I was told that by volunteering and being involved, it would give your kids (and their classmates) all the benefits.  At a private school (especially a Catholic private school), if there aren’t any volunteers, there aren’t many activities.  So ultimately, I knew I had to participate.  Could I have cut down on the activities I chaired or took part in?  Sure.  Why didn’t I?  [Insert long sigh here.]  Because in the end, I realized that I wasn’t sending my child to a private school because it was better than the public schools in the area.  (We actually have great public schools in our district.)  I was sending my child to a private Catholic school so she could learn about her faith.  The most imp...

9 years later...

This is the story of a dentist-in-waiting-nomad, Angela (a.k.a. my sister, "Ate"-[for those who don't speak Filipino, pronounced "a-teh"]) and a basketball playing of an engineer. Freshman year: boy sees girl and never speaks to her. Senior year: boy befriends girl's sister and gets his chance. A winter formal came along. Boy asked. Girl accepted. Boy meets girl's brothers (eek!), mom, and dad (EEK!). They danced. Girl moves to San Francisco, then San Jose. Boy moves to San Jose. Boy moves back to Valencia. Girl stays in San Jose. This summer, girl will move back to Valencia. Soon, boy and girl will finally be getting married! 9 years later! I have yet to express how excited I am that my sister and Louie are finally getting married. (Not that they needed to tie the knot to officially make Louie a part of our family.) For nine years, Louie has become another big brother to me and an Uncle "Looouuuwweeeee" to my nieces- always willing to d...
