Aleaya and her night time singing

Aleaya loves to listen to songs at bedtime. She was listening to the song "Jesus loves the little children" at bedtime last night. I heard her break out in song after closing the door to go to bed- it was the cutest thing-her verse was a little different though. she said "Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world. red and yellow,black and white,orange and green and purple too" could it get any cuter than that? I love her so much she makes my heart full!!

Care Package for Skeeter

Here are the things I am sending in a care package for Skeeter. This will be the second one Ive sent. It is really hard not even knowing if it arrived or not. Oh well, it is the thought that counts and I just pray this arrives and that it is delivered to Skeeter. I sent two outfits,a toy, a blanket, some candy for the nannies and not pictured here is some candy for the children.

spaz

I have no idea what happened to the word few in my last post about the Puyallup fair. I am such a spaz when it comes to this blogging thing!!! I'm surprised I am even able to post pictures!!

DO THE PUYALLUP!!!!

We went to the Puyallup Fair last week and Aleaya rode the rides for the first time.(last year she wasn't old enough) Of course my camera ran out of batteries after a few pictures!! so this is all I have. She looks a little scared in the firetruck picture but it is deceiving she had a blast.

Moon Cakes and Cuteness!!!

The Pork roast turned out great and the moon cakes are pretty but not very tasty!! As you can tell Aleaya couldn't wait to have a moon cake. She changed her mind after tasting one :) so she had a moon pie instead!!! At first we couldn't see the moon through the clouds but finally after everyone went home, alas the moon!!!! Aleaya, Sami,Justin (Sami's new boyfriend) & I took a little walk to get a better view. I said a little prayer for Skeeter and of course couldn't help but think of our Scotty while looking at the beautiful moon!!

Autumn moon festival

The Autumn Moon Festival is tonight. My Family is coming over for the Celebration. We are celebrating with Chinese Pot Roast and moon cakes.http://www.rachaelraymag.com/recipe/44179/

A new name for Skeeter???

okay, so maybe everyone remembers Matt and I couldn't agree on a name for Skeeter. He wanted Nicholas-(ummm, we have a dog named Nicky) I wanted Shae Sheng Le-we agreed on Tyler Sheng Le-so since we came up with the name Tyler-I still keep calling him Skeeter-can't seem to get used to the name Tyler-although I like it a lot. Well guess who came to me and said he likes Shae better now-of course Matt did-he told me Sami likes Shae better-okay then, is it to late to go back to Shae?????????? I don't think so!!! :)

TURD

so the potty training thing is not going so well. I was handed a turd. She wears pull ups and had on a pair of shorts the other day. Obviously she went poo and the pull-up couldn't hold all the doo, so it fell out of the side of her pull-up. She ran into the play room with her outstretched(and I do mean outstretched LOL) hand with a turd in it yelling "Momma, poo-poo"...........GREAT, she had the most horrifying look on her face..........it was so funny I didn't know whether to laugh or cry..............so I laughed until I cried!!!! Luckily it was a hard turd and not a huge mess!!!! Wish I had a camera.........................................I went into Respiratory Therapy instead of Nursing because of the turd factor-I don't have to deal with the T factor being an RT-so those of you who know me well, have a GOOD laugh with this one!!!! I sure hope we are done with this before Skeeter gets here!!!!

ABC song-big girl potty

Aleaya can finally sing the ABC song. She has known the whole alphabet for months but wasn't able to sing the song. It is the cutest thing. She will sing it straight through and then say "Mommy, now its your turn". She is growing up sooooo fast.

We are having a rough time with the potty thing. I've tried stickers, M&M's, potty books...nothing seems to work. I guess when she is ready it will happen. She wears pull-ups most of the time now except at night and naps. She still pees and poos in them even though I ask her a million times a day if she needs to go potty. Suggestion's are welcome :)

Sami started school

Sami moved in and she started school yesterday. She is going to a brand new high school. I'm sure it is hard to start a new school in your JR year of High school. We are so proud of her she is taking it really well and seems to be pretty excited about it. She said "there are lots of cute boys" YIKES, let the teenage ride begin. :)
