Personality

It's the end of October.  I am amazed at how quickly each year goes by.  At the beginning of every year, I dread how little vacation time there is and that the holidays will never arrive.  Then the holidays finally get here and I feel overwhelmed.  It's a lose-lose situation, I tell ya'.  This year has been more even more exciting with Bug because she's able to really interact with people and experience things differently.  She's able to really have fun.  

With that being said, Happy Halloween!  Tonight, our little fairy Bug is gathering to our local Downtown area with her school friends for some trick-or-treating and dinner.  I'm excited to see her face when she realizes that after she says, "Trick-or-Treat!" (and according to her, "Where's my candy please?"), she'll actually be receiving candy!  I'm excited to see her dancing down the street in her pink fairy costume, running with friends, giggling, fighting to hold her at-the-moment best friend's hand, etc.  I AM EXCITED.

While checking out some new locations for my weekend family photography sessions, I was able to finally take some pics of Bug.  I've been so busy taking pictures of other people lately, that my poor camera has not seen Buggy in awhile.  So here are some cute pics of Dad and Bug "helping" Mommy check out locations.

Proud to be a big girl!

I asked for a nice picture near the bridge, but she just could not stand the dirt.
Then she realized it was on the ground too.
 Love.
 We must always have a toy with us.
 Such a cheese ball!
She has so much personality!  Get ready for some Halloween photos tomorrow! :)

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...
